The course has no formal prerequisites, but you should have foundational knowledge in set theory, college algebra, Python, bits, bytes, and number systems other than decimal. I am biased since I have a CS background, my stance is the course is accessible given sufficient time to internalize the material. I would place Dr. Sriram Sankaranarayanan on par with some of my favorite professors. The concepts are clear, the class is well-paced, and the programming assignments are bite-size. Unfortunately, you have to buy the textbook if you're not a CU Boulder student, and Dr. S uses markers that screech when writing on the clear whiteboard. I do wish to have seen more programming assignments.

The instuctor is amazing. I like it how he explains difficult concepts in a clear manner. He made great use of slides and online presentation tools. The course was challenging and sometimes I had to research things on my own. Some of the mathematical concepts were unfamiliar to me. But they are not necessary to pass the course

The videos are super great! The professor explains everything clearly.

However, the assignments are not that polished. There are tons of typos.

The contents of the course is fine. The professor makes clear expositions of the material. It is a good first course in algorithms.

Week 4 about Hashtable is a little difficult to understand! I need more exercise and programming for week 4.

It is amazing from week 1 to week 3 . I really learned a a lot. But I am kind of lost when in week 4.

Some programming assignments were easy. Apart from that this course is excellent

nice

First the bad: This was a challenging course to take without having access to discussion forums -- which are not available to students not enrolled at CU. The course and lecture slides contained a lot of typos, and some of the course content was copied from third-party sources complete with errors. The whole thing could use a good proofread. Now the good: all of that said, I think in having to overcome all of those challenges I really understood the subject in depth! The lectures are pretty good if a bit scattershot, but they definitely helped me to get through the concepts with a clear understanding of the good, better, and best way to do things.

The lecture explanations were mostly good. The coding exercise instructions were confusing.

Problem sets fun, lectures not
