The professor is just talking as he programs. You arent being taught, but showed.

i could only understand everything because it was taught in my college as well.

teaching is not upto the mark could have used ppt rather than note pad.......

Your writing on the board is very difficult to understand

Compiler should have been integrated with the course .

good excellant course for learning

it is not good as expected

not too good explanation

the course was good .

booring explanation

very hectic course

NOT PROPER VICE

very good

very dry

no

This is one of the worst beginner courses on here. It is clearly not for everyone. You cannot call it fundamentals without actually teaching the fundamentals. There is a severe lack of detail in these lessons and a big assumption on the part of the instructor that you have previous knowledge of some of the concepts he’s discussing. I have never received assignments before in which what you are supposed to produce is not something you were taught in the lesson. This course at the very least needs to be renamed. Saying C for Everyone is misleading. Instructor would be great for intermediate/advanced courses but to teach a beginner the assumption must be that we know nothing. Not that we have some obscure but limited knowledge of what you discuss. This is the first coursera course I truly felt lost in and am very dissatisfied by. I would hope this course is revised for future terms.

Even when the course description says that you don't need a lot of previous knowledge about programming, this course requires a lot of time searching by your own a lot of information that is not provided, even for completing the weekly tasks. Specially the beginning is quite frustrating and the professor is not really clear in the most of the classes. Also, the videos are quite poor quality, difficult to understand his handwriting and usually not giving basic information that someone who is learning to programming doesn't have. Also, this is the general attitude at the beginning even for access to the basic tools. How the Lab works is also not very well explained. This is surely not a course for someone "who doesn't have previous knowledge about programming".

Disgusting course, don't recommend it. Pros: In general, the course material isn't bad, and initially, I wanted to take all four courses in this specialization. However, after taking one course, I decided not to continue due to its cons. Cons: - The lecturer is awful; he constantly makes annoying slurping sounds. - The sound quality is awful; there is always some background noise. - The lecture materials are horrible; instead of preparing slides, he uses something like a whiteboard with handwritten text. His handwriting is difficult to read. All of these issues make it very difficult to want to take this course. You can find C courses with much better quality than this one.

As a beginner, I thought this course will develop my basic grip on computer programming, but in the contrast, this course is somehow designed for those students who already have some preliminary programming background. I have tried multiple times to download all the necessary tools and compilers, but I have failed miserably. This course did not meet my expectations, and I am extremely embarrassed to continue learning although I secured financial aid. How I am going to perform If I don't even know the ABC of C/C++ programming, this course has proved not to be something that a beginner can digest without any basics.

This man is the worst teacher that i've ever seen! First of all i don't understand why he doesn't do the exercises both on windows vsc and his mac? All of the courses that i've took before and it was for windows and mac the teacher always did 2 videos 1 for windows and the other for mac! The other thing is that this is a beginner course yet he doesn't explain a lot of things! The code he's writing is outdated and if you write the same code in vsc it will give errors! a good example is that the printf function doesn't work anymore and instead the cout << needs to used! 1 star from me!

Explanation is worst, he is just reading the lines not even explaining anything, wasted all my money and I didn't even get certificate.... for certificate I need to pay money wow.....this is just nonsense you guys only work for money for learning money and for certificate money what the hell is this....

I am very sad I joined coursera if I joined in some other website I will get good c programming course and certificate also at low cost.... please don't waste every one's time....

The course was unorganized. A lot of inaccurate code. An example of one was where he declared an array of grade with a constant size. The array couldn't be initialized and I spent at least half an hour to debugged it.

The issue was that "The C99 standard does not allow initialization of variable length arrays ". I had to learn how to use enums or preprocessor macro to fix it which was a topic in the next course "C for Everyone: Structured Programming".

The professor's handwriting note is really hard to read. Homework contains content that have not been taught yet. Many videos teach repeated concepts and some important concepts are not mentioned. The instructor cannot even show a tidy appearance before the screen. Very disappointed to see that this is the largest C and C++ course on Coursera. My course experience on Python, Java and Web Design is far far far better than this course.

There was a good amount of peer-reviewed assignments and quizzes.

However, this course gave just the general overview of the basic concepts and did not dive much into details or give a deep understanding of those fundamental concepts. The instructor's pace is very slow, I had to watch the videos at 1.5x and sometimes at 1.75x speed.

Overall, I am not very satisfied with this course.

It is not for beginners. I started this course to start in the world of programming, so my knowledge is nil. In the description of the course it mentions that it is not necessary that you have previous knowledge, but the reality is that you require a lot. If you are a beginner, I do not recommend it at all. The course probably just discouraged you from learning about programming.
