Hi Shankar,
I'd like to criticize a little here.
1. The quality of the video is really bad. It is almost impossible to see the code, even though I watch the video in the best quality YouTube suggests me (720p). This is the reason I stopped watching the video after 5 mins. I'm attaching a screenshot of what I see on the screen.
2. There are some voices on the background, probably from your colleagues. It really annoys, such videos should be recorded in silence, e.g. in an empty room.
3. Using eval function isn't recommended in JavaScript, it complicates debugging. And you use eval on the high level, wrapping the whole code executed (see for instance, answer on StackOverflow ).
My general impression - I wouldn't recommend using this video as a tutorial, especially for novices

Thanks, Gennadiy for the valuable suggestions, This is my first ever YouTube video so It should have some pitfalls. I will try my best on the next video so the user can enjoy learning!
I agree with what you are saying but eval is not recommended in JavaScript but It's been working for me for the past 5 years and I'm able to debug the code. We have another possibility which is Runner.CallMethod may we can replace the eval by that. Eval basically restricted for security concern which is not applicable in Automation scripting.

shankar_r , starting from 10:30 the video has some creepy audio and video artifacts.
Also, it is a good idea to enlarge the font size, but it looks like you changed the tool for screen recording. It is focusing on currently active controls (or current mouse position, or something else). As a result, sometimes it is difficult to understand, where and why the focus moved.
Probably it would be better to use lower resolution to record the video, but always record the full screen.
P.S. Have you changed your voice? :)

BTW, using Runner.CallMethod is also not recommended as it is obsolete :)
