Not yet. Sorry for the disappointment. Hopefully, with support from free

I am not aware of the details of the curriculum in the 11th and 12th
classes in CBSE. But assuming that it consists of things like C, C++,

not specified. We have problem only when the curriculum specifies things
like Visual C++ or Microsoft SQL Server.
