The course covers the basics, but I'm not sure how applicable it is for real-world scenarios. Needed more practical depth.

It covers the basics well. I think more varied examples could have enhanced the learning experience further. Still, a worthwhile effort.

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.

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.

Solid course. It covered the essentials well, and the structure was logical. Could have used a few more practical application examples, but overall a good learning tool.
