I was completely new to TCD Tables and TCD Charts – very good. The session focusing purely on TCD exercises at the end of the afternoon was a bit rushed as we were pressed for time.The GCD (Graph) section was very interesting and impressive for a complete beginner like me. The main section of exercises using pre-prepared ‘blank’ TCD Excel files is very educational. Being able to save them so I can try again and go back over them will be very useful.
