It's a good course if you have some prior knowledge. For absolute beginners, some concepts might be a bit challenging. The structure is logical, though.

Good foundational course. Explained things clearly, but could have used more hands-on practice to solidify the learning.

Pretty good foundation. The explanations were generally clear, and the structure made sense. I'd say it's a worthwhile course.

Hmm, I'm not sure this is for absolute beginners. It assumes a bit of prior knowledge that wasn't explicitly taught. Some examples were confusing.
