took time and tried to take as many extra training created to help me practice which was a great help and using it on more difficult examples was really helpful to help retain the new knowledge, still feels like i need to learn a ton since i feel nowhere capable to write bigger more complex code, create a program an AI bot or anything else, Would appreciate also more practice trainings on binary topic, since does were the most challanging,the part of the course could have more steps for practice
