Really enjoyed this. The examples provided were super helpful in understanding the concepts. Definitely got my money's worth.

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.

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.

This covers the basics well. I wish there were more opportunities to practice independently between modules.
