This course was a good intro especially in setting all the necessary software for future courses. I suggest to read the manuals, books and other readings the profs suggest. The resources are helpful.

A little incomplete as a standalone course. Really forces you to pay for additional courses.

Bien para ser una introducción. Quizás podría ser más específico en los pasos a seguir.
