very educational. I've learnt not only about graph theory but also how to use matplotlib and timeit libraries. The assignments were quite challengeable but rewarding.

The class is very useful, I already see the improvement in the codes that I write. And the assignments are very well-designed and truly helpful.

Too much bla, bla, bla. Very slowly, very boring.

Its impossible to get your work graded. A peer review system is used. There is no back up review system if no one else is enrolled to do the reviews. Reading back in the forum it becomes obvious that no one runs this class. Rice gets paid the professors get paid. Easy money for them and coursera. I have been waiting and paying for two weeks for two grades so I can move on to part two of this course. No responses from the professors, Rice, or coursera to the multiple emails or other attempts to reach literally anyone to resolve the issue. I worked and studied and just want a honest and fair grade. So if you work 56 hours a week and decide to add a education and dedicate your little free time and overtime pay to improve you life go somewhere else. pick a educational program with actual contactable help and resource.

The worst course I've ever taken!!!!! Don't wast your time unless you are very rich and have nothing to do. They asked 5 peer revview to pass the course for each project, and they force you to read the optional material otherwise you can't pass the quiz. They only test the hardest part in the quiz to keep you as long as you can in each course so that they can earn money. Anyone see this PLEASE RUN AWAY FROM THIS WORST COURSE!!!!

The course is really challenging in comparison with previous courses in the specialization, but it's worth it! Good grasp of Python is a pre-requisite (therefore not suitable for novice - if you are one, take IIPP and POC courses in this specialization first to build the base).
Project-based assignments really make you think and teach you to apply the knowledge. And even the homework quiz is not just a bunch of dumb multiple choice questions that can be done on the fly - you still need to put in the effort to solve it.
Thanks to instructors and all the course staff!

Enjoyed every piece of it. While it assumes you are familiar with programming in Python for which it is recommended to take their "Principles of Computing" both Part 1 and 2 prior, plus knowing some high-school math, it teaches you to develop efficient algorithms that solves particular problems. You will be able to reason about Algorithmic efficiency as well.

Very challenging course, but I did enjoy the content quite a lot. The programming assignments were well-structured and built upon one another to the point that the final graph resilience project took me an entire weekend to complete, but greatly expanded my understanding of both python data structures and how to represent graphs using them.

Application assignment is a must-do for students taking this course. The second computer network application is very a rewarding one for me to finish with gains on concepts of graph as well as programming stretch with my hands dirty.

lectures are a bit on the slow side... not straight to the point and a bit repetative..
bfs we have already done in this spezialization.
but homework/project/applications are excellent!
makes up for the rest!
Thank you!

Muy buen curso, entretenido y útil, mezcla muy bien teoría y práctica y me parece con una dificultad razonable.
