Well detailed course, I thought this topic was going to be hard to learn. But the teacher explained it well. Anyway, I enjoy this course, because I learned a lot from it. Thank you Coursera and Meta.

Information is great. Graded quizzes towards the end did not appear to be proofread or answers verified for accuracy.
