Note from MADS MADLAD:
Thank you for buying my summary. I sincerely hope it helps you excel and learn
from this course. When I was writing these I sometimes struggled with this
program, but there were no summaries available.
This is why I decided to write something that is truly complete with a lot of
effort put into it. It helped me and my friends get good grades, but I also
always had you in mind, the future reader. When necessary, I always went the
extra mile to make this summary, more readable, organized and complete.
If you feel like it, leave me a review of how the course is going using this
summary, it will make my day to hear your opinion good or bad!
