    This course was a meaningful and useful introduction to Bayesian Data Analysis. I have also taken the Python introduction to Bayesian Data Analysis, and this course was a remarkable contrast. This R course actually provided a much better intuitive understanding of the material, and that increased intuition has nothing to do with R vs Python. In reality, Rasmus Baath was a very good teacher by all DataCamp comparisons.
