Bom para um início imediato, mas a rapidez da fala dificulta a memorização. Alguns pontos abordados precisam de mais tempo e descrição suficiente com exemplo e isso não se deu em todos os comandos referenciados, por exemplo a respeito dos padróes de preenchimento, ficou sem a devid explanação e exemplo.

Very clear and thorough. For me at these early stages duplicates much of what I know but I appreciate the detail so I can be sure my foundation is thorough.
