Review

“It’s important to give massive credit for the success of Proof ’s customer success effort to one of the authors of this book, Peter Armaly. As you’ll see as you read this book, Peter and his co-author, Jeff Mar, are leading global authorities in CS. So many of the ideas and perspectives that we implemented at ProofAnalytics.ai came straight from Peter. It would be tough to find anyone more knowledgeable than he is in this area.”
