Good Course for a person who is not in the field of computer science and who wants to get deep knowledge in computer science.Thank You the University of London for that wonderful course.
por DM11 de Out de 2019
A great course. Although I have come from a background in website development, I still picked up many useful tips and information about the fundamentals of computers and how they work.
por AS20 de Jul de 2020
This was a really good course! There were some parts where I felt things may have been skipped over or videos repeated, but overall I think the information is very useful.
