This course was so helpful. I think I now understand the fundamentals of mathematical logic. I truly recommend this course to anyone who is interested in studying logic!

Somehow difficult in the last several weeks. As almost all the materials are all in words, students may sometimes feel bored seeing all lines and complex tables.

Very interesting course\n\nBut some parts are not just to technical but rather for technicians and not for persons looking more into the theoretical aspects

Course is fine but there isn't much material for INTRODUCTION. Good Math Skills Required.

Videos to explain the materials would be much more useful than how it is right now...
