Thank you for teaching me this course. I learned a lot of new things, including Divide-and-Conquer, MergeSort, QuickSort, and Randomization Algorithms, along with proof for their asymptotic runtime

Great course.
Tim Roughgarden is an incredible teacher.
You'll learn more using Tim's books on the subject, by the way.

Good explanations, but more theoretical and math-intensive than practical. Not the best way to prepare for interviews.

Excelente curso, lo deje un tiempo porque no me podía hacer el ejercicio 3 de programación pero fue por no leer bien.

Focuces in indepth mathimatical insight and analysis of algorithms.
Doesn't depend on a single programming language

The handwritten text was a bit of difficult to read. The rest of the course is just exactly what is needed.
