It was a good course, but i think that more examples for the practical tasks would have made it a lot better. Sometimes it took me a long time to understand the requirements.

Very straightforward course. Lectures and notes are clear and if you pay attention to them/do the readings, the quizzes and problem sets shouldn't be too hard.
