This is a great class. I learned / re-learned a ton. The assignments were challenge and left a definite feel of accomplishment. The programming environment and automated grading system were excellent.

Good contents and the logic of the whole course structure is very clear for a novice like me. The weekly homework is also awesome. Would recommend to anyone who wants to learn about computer science.

Outstanding course for new and old developers alike. The bar is set really high regarding code quality, memory footprint, timing and correctness. You will definitely learn a lot in this course.

Very clear and good course. Highly recommended. Besides learning about algorithms you'll learn about clean, clear and bug free code as well because of the very strict and high grading criteria.

I went to Cambridge (UK), not studying Computer Science to be fair, and this course is better done than most of mine... Clear, well structured, excellent visual demonstrations of the concepts.

Excelent lessons, occasionally references lessons not included in the course but overall great lessons. The assignments are rather challenging but you are given all the tools to complete them.

The course is good and the concepts are clear to understand. Best course to choose if you want to learn Algorithms completely. Each and every concept is explained with good number of examples.

This Algorithms, Part 1 course is excellent. The best thing in the course was the autograder which tests assignment submissions very thoroughly and this really improved my programming skills.

Easy to learn & fun Java excercise questions! After completing the course I now feel I have a more correct understanding of the fundamental data structures and more knowledge about algorithms

The course itself is excellent, but the assignments are where it really shines! They are very challenging but incredibly well-thought, and the feeling after solving them is greatly rewarding!

It would be nice if the authors decided to refresh the media materials a little bit, nevertheless it is extremely interesting and useful course with challenging but thrilling practice tasks.

In case you are new to computer algorithms this course is for you. The instructor is just perfect and the course difficulty is average, not difficult nor easy. I learned abit java as well :)

Extremely high quality content with clear explanations provided in a sensible order. I just wish Coursera would migrate the exercises so that I could have some more content alined practice.

This is an amazing course and it opened my eyes to seeing algorithms in a different perspective. I would recommend this course to anyone looking to learn algorithms or to optimize their own.

Excellent course and materials. Wonderful videos from a legend in the field. The programming assignments are challenging- I wouldn't advise learning java as you go along with this course.

Course is very good with in-depth knowledge of the topics that are being discussed but the reading material needs to be improved as it is quite complicated to understand for the first time

It`s fundamental course, I think every programmer must know basic algorithms and data structures. Java programming model as simple as python or js, so recieved skill will be useful anyway.

Previously at my school, I felt that the algorithm was very dry and had few applications. Thanks to this course I realized the algorithm is so cool, so beautiful and so many applications

This course is awesome for someone who wants to learn about algorithm fundamentals.
The assignments strictly follow what have been presented in the lectures and they are very challenging.

Wonderful revise of the basis algorithms especially for java developers, it also teaches you the basic java constructs used so even someone with very little java knowledge can attend it

"Remind me again why I'm trying to check if 4 points line on a straight line or not?" - Me, at 3 in the morning.
"Where is Week 7?" - Me, after completing the course with a perfect score.
