    Learning Experience: The learning experience was amazing. if we wanted to do the self-study of the course, all the content was provided on the Cse website of IIT Kharagpur with prerecorded video lectures.
    Faculty: The faculty provided was amazing as it provided teaching assistance to each and every student showing that they can help the students to understand or to clear their doubts in each and every topic that was covered in the week and for different topics there were different professors for different topics The course curriculum was based on programming with C. Then topics like recursion and sorting algorithms came into the limelight followed by advanced topics like linked lists, stacks, queue and deque. Then the concept of global variables and the pointers topic and the pointers topic was much important and interesting to read with realising how c variables have their addresses and memory allocated. This was the course curriculum.
    Course Support: The course had a huge impact on the programming side as it made a good sense of understanding the basic concepts of a programming language as C language is the most important language to start with and then we could also learn Python language and C++ and Java with a very easy understanding due to the knowledge of this course

    Learning Experience: The content is very good, they prepare us for the industry background and are one of the best NPTEL courses for beginners as well as for crash courses.
    Faculty: The faculty gave us already recorded videos to learn from, and the teachers were very good at their subjects, though there was some accent gap which made it a little bit hard to understand a session but it was barely an issue. It was the updated course in data structures and also in C++, the course curriculum consisted of all the basic beginners' guide to the amount of information a person needs to know to master the basics of DSA.
    Course Support: I learnt the basics of data structures and was very well satisfied with the certification course as I passed the exam which was taken after completing the course i would rate it 4/5
