Level has left me with big plans for the future to get out and do something with life. This guide taught me a lot about computer science. The things I learned from this guide - I never knew. It's kind of tricky! Everybody should want to learn and have something for themselves in the future.

- Rontrail, in prison in Florida

I have been incarcerated for over 29 years. This computer science guide has helped me gain a better understanding to the type of world I'm about to enter. I knew nothing about computer science or technology, except for what little I have been exposed to or told about. This guide was enlightening. Thank you!
