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.

Incredible learning experience. Every programmer in industry should take this course if only to dispel the idea that with the advent of cloud computing exponential algorithms can still ruin your day!

Really nice course. Excercises and the automated tests that grade the solution are great and let you see the misstakes you make.

Excelent cource on algorithm. THe best part is you can really see that you implimentation is correct and performs as expected.

the way to implement a data structure is pretty good. first we think about what the client need, then implement those methods.
