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.

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 was a good introduction. The structure is logical, and it covers the basics effectively. Might be too introductory for advanced learners.
