This course is more about mathematic than algorithms, it teaches how to solve tricky combinatorial problems

This is great course if you already done some algorithms courses and want to go deeper.

This course offers an extensive coverage of mathematical material like tools and techniques, putting special emphasis on simple principles and never losing its focus on the general perspective of the topic.

Developing insight on analytic functions together with combinatorics and the practical applications of theory into code gives a significant advantage over using naive approaches.

A special appreciation to Prof. Sedgewick's endless efforts for disseminating mathematical knowledge among programmers, over this platform and even outside!

Thank you very much.

I didn't like this course at all. Cover less material, but explain it better. Most of the students drop out after week 3.

Excellent course, great exercise in combinatorics.

This course is very helpfull!

Some of the problems are very interesting and I'm quite impressed by the symbolic method. Howerver, part of the contents are too "detailed" which is dull in my opinion.

clear explanation, and amazing tools to analyze algorithms through a scientific approach.

Wonderful insights about the study of the algorithm's complexity and combinatoric logic.

Awsome course...

This is very helpful to me...

The good thing about Coursera is that the courses are self-contained with defined prerequisites but this course is definitely not self-contained and it also doesn't mention any prerequisites. It can be a good extra material following through a class, or attending the same lectures. This course is essentially the lectures from this class but without any supporting material or small group tutorials. Other than that, it's just a promotion of the books that the lecturer wrote.

not so well explained

I did not understand anything in this course and quiz is not relate to the course.

Doesn't offer ceritifcate
