Absolutely not recommended if you're coding for the first time.. It's just like "This works this way, right? Shall we try this once? If you use brackets, it becomes like this." The lectures are like this.. People who know coding would do it easily, but for those who know absolutely nothing, it's just pure memorization with no explanation of principles whatsoever. To compare it to English grammar, top-tier instructors help you understand the principles, but this is like neighborhood academy instructors just telling you to memorize everything.
