Pretty challenging course, but very good. Having a book is a must (at least it was for me), video lectures complement book nicely, and some topics are explained better in the Algorithms, 4th ed. book.
Amazing course! Loved the theory and exercises! Just a note for others: Its part 1 had almost no dependency on book, but this part 2 has some dependency (e.g. chapter on Graph) on book as well.

•This was a fantastic material and for free! So, thanks so much prof. Robert Sedgwick for this invaluable lessons and many thanks Coursera guys for the opportunity! I'm happy I've found these courses.

•As always, I learned a lot from the courses from Professor Robert. Really great course, and I would like to recommend to anyone who is interested in programming neatly and elegantly.

•Really great course, assignments are on point not too hard not too easy, i just wish that we had more courses like this, congratulations to Robert, Kevin and the staff well done.

•After learning this course, I found I was never learnt to write a meaningful program before. You let me to think in different way with a more broaden horizon. Thank you all !
By Hongsun K
•This was a great overview of more advanced algorithms, and I also got to prep for interviews and use concepts in actual work. The theory at the end was very helpful as well
By Bank E
•The exercise, while is very hard, is very well-prepared and selected for students to understand and appreciate the algorithm. The explanation is descriptive and detailed.
By Jiaoxuan L
•Rich content. Liked the teaching style as well. But wish that it had an as-strong supporting system as Part I's and mentors/fellow students could answer more questions.

•Prof. Sedgewick does an amazing job in explaining the mechanics of the fundamental algorithms and data structures. I have thoroughly enjoyed this course (and Part I).
By Pankaj C
•Awesome course. Helped me understand graph better. The API is simple and effective. I implemented the whole API and have been using it in my other graph solutions

•This is an excellent course as an introduction to algorithms. Together with part 1, the Princeton Algorithms series is the best MOOC course I've ever done.
By Mallasamudram P A
•Dr. Sedgewick is simply amazing. I enjoy how he motivates the need for efficient algorithms and applications. I only wish he would offer more courses!
By Edwins L P
•Excellent course and materials about algorithms and data structures. Very challenging exercises that make you think hard to achieve the passing score.
By Tatiana D
•Complex concepts in plain language. Challenging and interesting practice exercises. Without them it's impossible to fully understand theoretical part.
By Tom G
•Excellent follow-on from Part I - covers additional algorithms in depth and the excellent examples really help to learn and understand the material.
By Ignacio A
•Every single programming assignment was both challenging and fun. I learned really good algorithms and overall I feel I'm a better Software Engineer
By Simin L
•Completed Algorithms I and II. Great course for students to learn data structures is a systematically way! Could be used in my research directly.

•This course is challenging but interesting. The homework is hard but valuable. Recommend this course for everyone who gets start to algorithm.
By Vadim
•Very informative and well structured course. Assignments are interesting and non-trivial solutions are required to achieve 100% completion.
By Karthik R
•Provides excellent insights with reference to some of the advanced algorithms. Assignments for a great source of learning in the course.
By Vladislav R
•Very well structured course on Algorithms and advanced data structures. Highly advised to anyone pursuing career in programming field.
By Jorge A
•Thanks, Robert Sedgewick for this amazing course. The way you structure your lectures reflects the deep love you feel on Algorithms.
By Sasha K
•Excellent! Sedgwick explains things in such a way that is both extremely intuitive but also makes the code practically write itself!
