Fall 2016 - Definitely a great class to take. Enjoyed the material. Your grade is basically decided upon three homework (totaling 60%), and the final group project. Go to the TA office hours and you will do well on the homework! Learned so much, but I felt the Professor went too fast on some materials, but as there are no exams, you do not have to know everything. Just do well on the homework and you will be well off in the class.
