Acerca de este curso: The primary topics in this part of the specialization are: shortest paths (Bellman-Ford, Floyd-Warshall, Johnson), NP-completeness and what it means for the algorithm designer, and strategies for coping with computationally intractable problems (analysis of heuristics, local search).
Para quién es esta clase: Learners with at least a little bit of programming experience who want to learn the essentials of algorithms. In a University computer science curriculum, this course is typically taken in the third year.

Really happy to finish this specialization and I will still study algorithms in the future.
Excellent course! Bravo to the teacher for the commitment provided in this course. Kind regards.
A very nice introduction to algorithms from a high-level mathematical perspective. This course is great for building intuition about key concepts. Highly recommended. I did the Princeton algorithms course first. Both are great. The first tests one more on the implementation side and requires Java. This course is more focused on theory and a great complement. Too bad there is not a Part 5, 6, ….

This is the most challenging course in this specialization. Assignments as well as test questions require good amount of thinking.
One of the best courses I did on Coursera.
