the final graded asignment did not acurately specify what the project would be graded on. ir was not clearly stated, and some of it swwmed irrelavant, like the "number of pictures that showed up for temples" and if the "About Us" gaad some specific text... thebinstructions looked like they where chpped down from an original by someone who doesn't speak english as a first language. seemed very unprofessional. while the course videos fly over the code and quizes take too much effort over wordy answers and not code
