The course material is very good indeed: kudos to the lecturer, awesome approach and superb execution. Docked one star on account of the following. Proficiency assessment in the tests not requiring to write code is a little skewed towards the mathematincal aspects of algorithms, which is fair enough and par for the course; however, enough of the test questions are worded (of course in English) in a language that is too terse and sometimes appear aimed at befuddling the reader (especially non-native speakers, well, readers...), rather than at providing a clear understanding of what is asked. Some of the coding assignments are challenging on their own account (fair enough: again, par for the course); yet again, when the question itself becomes veiled in obscure wording and lacks the clarity of examples I find something is left to be desired.

A beautiful course, I had already done the other two parts of this series of courses. This course focuses on the Greedy Algorithms and Dynamic Programming. I had not used these two types of algorithms before.

The difficulty of the exercises is not great but there is one programming assignment which is really hard to debug. Nevertheless there are good points in the forum.

Professor and forum members thank you for this beautiful learning experience.

It was a shame to see the worked examples dry up near the end. These were so useful for greedy algos, so it's strange that they weren't present for the last few dynamic programming problems, which hard arguably the hardest to grasp and least intuitive solutions so far. In the end I had to look elsewhere to really 'get' the formulation of solutions to things like optimal BSTs and knapsack. Other than that, fantastic course and very informative.

This really helped me to understand how to approach problems with a greedy algorithm mindset or a dynamic programming mindset. My only complaint is that week 4 could have used a concrete example for the optimal binary search tree.

Course is great. However, for me, there's some lecture I cannot understand so I have to find another course with more explanation.

It's a good course. But it has way too much theory and not much practice, so one can get confused and spend a lot of time on it.

Good course, though I posted a couple of questions in the forums and I am still waiting for an answer from one of the mentors.

While i thought the algorithms are very good - It could use just a small amount of expansion on the specifics and background.

Great material, explained very well, but the lack of feedback on tough problem sets can be frustrating;

The most challenging course after first and second, really difficult

Every time I learn algorithms I got to know new thing.

Not bad programming tests. At least it made me try

Amazing course! Great content indeed!

Need solution of quiz and final

A little too difficult.

good course

The forums are not very active, and there are a lot of unanswered questions from months and years ago. It seems like there have not been active staff/mentors in the forums for a while. Also the final exam had two duplicate problems from the problem sets.

Sometimes badly synchronized, there are also mistakes in the videos which haven't been corrected.

Sometimes the professor speaks too fast.

Honestly Speaking, I didn't like the course much. The explanation was quite complicated. I had to learn most of the things from youtube.
