To succeed in this course, you should be familiar with the material covered in Chapters 1-10 of the textbook and the first two courses in this specialization.

I really enjoyed this course, but i recommend doing the the two courses before this one because you do need to have a background in Python. At least knowing the basics

Things are getting a bit harder than the previous two course before this. Needs to do a lot more revision & studies to complete the coding assignments.. but worth it.

Great overview, but not enough of a good thing; I would have liked for the course to be a bit longer and go more in detail. Still an interesting course for beginners.
