This specialization is intended for all programming and artificial intelligence enthusiasts who seek to master advanced skills like concurrency in Go and Standard Template Library use in C++. Through the four courses—two in C++, and two in Go—you will be exposed to key algorithms and search methods in artificial intelligence, some pioneered by the instructor.
I get so much knowledge about Go programming and many use cases to apply in my project.
A much needed course for all those students who have strong fundamentals in C Programming but lack the OOP skills in C++.Still there is a scope of improvement.
I wish that there was some interactive aspect of the class, like mentors or teaching assistants to ask questions of. But besides that, I learned a lot. Thanks.
Best Course on Internet. It Covers Basics of C++ to Advanced Concepts. It covers the most important topics of programming, Graph theories, and many more.
It's wonderful platform to learn. highly recommended for those people who are intrested to learn particular concept of c++ program.
A great course for beginners to learn C++ programming. Excellent presentation of the educational material by Ira Pohl. I highly recommend this course for everyone to learn C++.
Good course for C ++ developers. I recommend this course as for beginners and experienced programmers.
The Questions were easily solvable using the techniques of C language the difficulty should have been more and much more emphasis would have been given on C++ language
Excellent Teacher,though I do recommend watching the videos at 1.5X.
Just right for programmers seeking to update their skills to the new V11 C++. I recommend getting the book by the author that helps along with a text or Coursera course on Algorithms.
Ira Pohl is a great professor. There were a few glitches in the videos, but overall a nice course.
Great teaching of topics covered. Covered far more than expected upon enrollment (and took way more time than expected). Lectures were slowly paced and tended to meander.
Showing: 6 of 6
the version of Go in this course is older and some function does not work in new versions. tasks are not be connected with the course lesson, they need more advanced knowledge.

Excellent Course
THE COURSE ISN'T THE BEST BUT THE WORST NEITHER. IRA POHL seems to really know his stuff (he's a PhD, no more to say) but wasn't at his best form in the course. The slides weren't good (5/10), he speaks REALLY REALLY slowly (you need to hear at 1.75x for sure) but still the main concepts of Go / Golang are explained, though, not at the lowest level, that is, if you don't know anything about programming, this isn't the best place to start. The assignments were somewhat creative and encourage you to write code and understand the concepts in more detail. Futhermore, the use of AI grading system really sped up the process. In conclusion: not beginner friendly, material wasn't good, IRA speaks really slowly but still manages to explain the concepts. 4/5 being generous
I didn't like the course, I completed 2 modules and decided not to waste time. The lecturer takes a piece of code and explains what it does line by line. Then on another slide he shows the lines of code separately and again explains what they are for. Then he opens the code in the editor and again explains what it does. Then he runs the program and explains why the result is like that. At the beginning of the video there is a title like "Go for C programmers and Everyone", but for me, as a person who knows C (and not only), this approach to learning is not suitable at all. Why not just go through the topics and tell the theory and then reinforce it with a practical example. For example, we go through simple data types, then complex ones, then the IF operator, then cycles, etc. But there is no structure here, everything is mixed up. Judging by the phrase "Everyone", it should be suitable for people who do not know programming at all, but with such explanations as in the course I would most likely give up learning programming altogether. I give it 3 stars instead of 1 because the lecturer knows what he is talking about but I don't like his approach to teaching at all.
I really dislike the peer review concept, and will consider not taking any other courses that have peer reviewing. I have finished this course about 4 weeks early - this includes passing the final - as I wanted to get up to speed on GO as quickly as possible. But I'm at 91% completion, as 4 of the assigned programs have not even been graded yet. Also, I have completed peer reviews, and have noted that some of the programs I've graded were submitted about 4 months before I started the course. Otherwise, it's a good intro and appreciate the comparison of GO concepts to C concepts.
