Opiniones y comentarios de aprendices correspondientes a Algorithms on Strings por parte de Universidad de California en San Diego

Learned a lot in the class. It was really excellent. But many a times we need to hear twice to understand some of the concepts clearly.

some long and complex episode needs more specific examples to help learner visualise

The instruction was poor, specially those by Michael Levin. I had to turn to other resources to understand the material.

The assignments have a few very easy questions and 1 or 2 rather challenging ones. It is enough to do the easy ones to pass and you can do them by simply implementing the pseudo-codes on the slides without a through understanding of the material.

I took all the other courses in this specialization (up to this one). I gave them 5, 4, and 3 stars. Overall, the lectures by Alexander S. Kulikov and Daniel M Kane are great. Unfortunately, they were absent from this course.

It's better to watch the Youtube videos to understand the concepts.

There are some too hard algorithms to implement, but it worth it. It allows to develop patience, mental skills and self-education. I highly recommend this course, some algorithms described here are crucial for computer science and must have to know.

I still can't believe that there can be so many algorithms on string pattern matching. Lots of interview questions are based on string algorithms and the I believe that the skills I got from this course is definitely going to help to crack interviews in the future.Moreover, I can implement an efficient search engine efficiently.

This course was not my favorite in the Specialization -- the content just wasn't as interesting, making some of the more demanding problems pretty difficult, but nothing was too difficult, given the excellent preparation delivered via the lectures. Everything you need to know for a problem was given right before!

Still, amazing course.

I would be interesting update Algorihm on Strings to construction of suffix arrays in linear time.

It was awesome. I was very surprised and mesmerized while understanding how the great scientists solved these challenging problems!

Awesome explanations and challenging problems like in all previous courses! Thank you!

good course

Good course that teaches Burrows wheeler transform, KMP algorithm. The assignments are also very good.

Good choice for learning algoritms on strings

Very Challenging! Assignments are great to learn the algorithms deeply.

Great Course, assignment a little bit harder than previous courses in the specialization

Great algorithms learnt in this process

Great content! It gets a little complicated as there are too many notations to keep track of. Probably best to read and re-read a lot several times. Teaching is also very good. Looking forward to the next course.

The course content was a bit disconnected this time with some missing parts in between. Maybe it would been better to start with simple string matching and basic data structures and only then progress to the genom processing part.

Fortunately the programming assignment cleared a great deal of the confusion. Never the less a very good course!

Great Course. It 'is very challenge

I really enjoyed this course

This class makes string algorithms a very interesting and enjoyable topic, and if you are interested in improving your algorithmic knowledge, I would highly suggest taking this course.

The first algorithms you will learn are motivated by problems from Bioinformatics (genome sequencing), and new interesting problems arise and get solved on the way.

All the material is very well explained so you can really understand why it works and not only how (there are even some very enjoyable proofs here)! The programming assignments (there are a lot of them) give you a hands-on experience implementing the different algorithms. This greatly improves the understanding and is therefore a crucial aspect of this class.

this course is awesome!

This is an interesting and useful but a bit difficult course.

Great Course Really Enjoyed it :)

Good course!
