Comments on the course

Honestly wish I would have not taken this course. It is an elective for my major (Operations Management). I work full-time, and this night class was the only one that worked with my schedule. Just like the other review said, if you have no prior coding experience, you are pretty much done. The class moves in such a quick pace that for a beginner, it is almost impossible to actually learn anything. My best example would be taking a 5000 level Spanish course when all you know is yes and no.

Course Content

Every lecture has classwork. This is the "attendance" of the course. Then every Sunday you will have a quiz over the lecture (easy) then a homework. The homework is fine, he does give a solution example and lets you follow that if need be. However, for a complete "newby" to coding, it is almost impossible to do it on my own. The course syllabus has the final as a presentation that "tests your skills" and you have to look at a businesses data and determine what they do. However, the professor has not mentioned anything about this with a month left of school. So I am not sure too much details on that.

Comments on the professor

Professor was fine, constantly late however. So if you think you're getting out early on a 3 hour lecture, you're not. As someone who commutes to campus everyday, it is extremely hard to gauge when he will be late or not. So I was stuck on campus waiting for the professor a lot of the time.

Advice

Like I said in contents, if you have no coding experience be extremely weary. This class will kick you in the butt and have no time to actually learn basics.

Comments on the course

Needs a prerequisite, they allow an want you to take this course yet it is nothing but coding. If you do not understand the basics of coding before this class you will be left in the dust. A complete set up for failure.

Course Content

Content was not useful as for my degree and yet it was in place for an elected requirement.

Comments on the professor

Professor is very smart, and a nice person, he is also very knowledgeable i the field. However being an adjunct professor there are very limited office hours, and he teaches very fast for such a complex topic.

Advice

I would say you should not take this course if you have never or no little to nothing about coding. Most people in the course are behind or lost.
