Excellent. I learned a lot of useful information. The videos are good, and the final project put it all together ad a challenging exercise. Worth the time spend, that is for sure.

Excellent course. Highly recommended. I learned a lot about parts of Python that I was not previously proficient in. I will definitely use what I learned in a job that I'm just about to start.
