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.

Found this course to be quite beneficial. The way topics were introduced was effective. Just a minor point, some examples felt a bit dated.

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.

This course offered a good overview. While the content was solid, I found myself wanting a bit more depth in certain areas. Worth checking out.

It's a solid course. The structure is logical and most of the examples were helpful. Could use a few more real-world scenarios though.
