I was very impressed with the quality of C Programming: Pointers and Memory Management. The teachers [Petra Bonfert-Taylor and Rémi Sharrock] are incredibly competent. The didactic material together with the learning environment are fantastic. Unfortunately, we have no way of controlling the speed of the videos and, in some moments, this would be more useful than going back in time. Even so, I am pleased to be able to complete the fourth course of the Specialization Program. Many thanks, Coursera, Dartmouth College, Institut Mines-Télécom and not least the Patrick and Lina Drahi Foundation, for democratizing quality education.

This is a really good course for beginners and intermediates. If you use C programming but haven't formally learnt it, then this is the right course/specialization. The teachers deliver complex concepts in a very simple manner with live coding and visualization. The use of the codecast tool is very helpful as we can pause the codecast video anytime and edit or run the code that is being taught. There are no lectures with boring slideshows, its all hands on coding and explanation. A lot of effort has been put to make the assignments fun to do :) However, the assignments can be made more challenging. Some assignments have only a quiz portion and some have only a coding portion. A small feedback- every assignment can have both quiz and coding questions, and the quiz questions can be more in number, and the coding questions can be more complex for advanced concepts. Overall, I'm very happy with the course, its delivery and my learning :)

I'm really having a blast with these courses. They are super thorough. I feel like I really understand pointers and using malloc really well now. My only issue is that the autograder for some of the assignments can act a little weird, especially with programs that have a bunch of pointers. Sometimes the autograder would time out with my submissions and I wouldn't get any feedback as to what was wrong. This led to a bunch of time wasted reinventing the wheel before I realized that I was on the right track at the beginning. I have noticed this with other C courses, so it's a common frustration.

Exercises should be little bit more complex and tougher so that the learner can Master the concepts perfectly.

A great course though . Thank You

Very detailed course C pointers and related. Some might find the content and exercises a bit easy but overall it is a high-quality course. Instructors are easy to follow. Just video buffering in Codecast is annoyingly slow sometimes.

The professors systematically, clearly, and thoroughly explained concepts that are hard for someone with no programming experience to grasp. The Codecast learning tool further illuminated the material. I can't believe I'm actually writing the mini programs for the assignments.

Definitely one of the best MOOCs I have ever taken, in this course I learn a lot of concept about memory management and pointers more deeper than the previous course

Another great course in this specialization! Highly recommended if you want to learn C programming from beginning.

Pointers (again) and malloc/free. Very good explained. Codecast helps a lot.

Excellent course, recommend to anyone thinking of moving into programming.

As always for the previous courses of the specialization, Awesomeeeeeee!

Great course with excellent explanation and visualization.

Great course and great way in understanding pointers.

Great course. The whole series is fantastic.

Excellent Course

Excellent!

Very cool visualizations in their terminal. So helpful!!! But audit track appears impossible since all lessons are locked until one upgrades. Sad!
