some explanations lacked some clarity and i think it should burn what every part does more into your brain as u might just start putting things together without actually knowing how they do what theyŕe doing, but thats correctable by yourself fairly easily with one or two yt vids. overall great course

Great course. I basically simplify every terms that you need to know about OOP. Of course, to master OOP, need to practice more with more exercise or university course level but this is good for the fundamentals

This course pushes one to think on deeper leve despite not having a full understanding of the process. I admirer this concise learning that I can implement for as little as 15 mins a day.
