Comments on the course

The first 3 weeks of the (summer) class was okay, but it gets pretty hard on the 4th week when they start to cover about proofs. The last few labs also get harder, especially the DFA sequential circuits. Finals was difficult too, but I think it got scaled, cuz I ended up with a mark that's way beyond my expectations. Initially thought that I'd only get low to mid 70s, but ended up with an A-.

Advice

Do the assignments early. Practice proofs.
