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.

Hmm, I'm not sure this is ideal for beginners. Some concepts were glossed over, and the examples weren't always clear.

Couldn't have asked for a better learning experience. The structure flowed perfectly, and the examples were incredibly relevant. Highly recommend!
