Que vs. Como

I've learned elsewhere that "como" is often much better to use than "que" when asking the kinds of questions covered in this lesson. I did not find a lesson that covers their comparative usages. Maybe would be good to include "cual."

Hola William

Cómo can't replace qué here in these questions. Cómo is used to ask "How..." or to know "What something is like" by saying "¿Cómo es...?" = What is .... like?...

We have a lesson on qué/cuál here.

Saludos
