Best course to go for. Only problem I had faced with the peer review. I got failed four times for no reason. People are not co-operative. But finally made it!
por PG21 de dic. de 2021
Not as much directly related to software design as I expected, but then again design is not necessarily software design.
por ML13 de ene. de 2022
