I first bought this course on Udemy. After watching it a few minutes I realized that this course phenomenal, so bought all modules. I just started to learn C, so it's challenging and that's a good thing. With this course you really apply C what is a completely different experience than to learn some theory and implement snippets. The only thing I really miss in this course are UML like diagrams to provide a better overview. Sometimes it's hard to follow when you have a struct containing other structs that contain even more structs....all deeply nested...some diagrams would really help here. So I have it draw it myself to don't lose myself ;-) Anyway, a great course and I'm happy that there's still 90% left for me. I'm confident that after this course my C skills will have improved dramatically :-D Cheers

Very good course! Very clearly to explain the complicated topic! AMAZING! And when the 3rd module will be released? Looking forward to it!

This course was very helpful getting my C++ skills back up to snuff after not using it for many years.

Great explanation of complicated topics.

I'm just now returning to this course after several months, so the review is of my impression without having completed the full course. In summary, WOW! Daniel is easily one of the best online instructors I have learned from. Clarity of lessons, pace of instruction and his availability to respond to questions is nearly unparalleled. And, all of that is combined with a topic (creating a C compiler) which is probably only available here. Highly recommended for anyone interested in learning what a compiler does.

It would be of great value if the course had some theoretical background on compilers.
