Winter 2025 - Do not take this class if you are a casual coder. This professor is so boring, and he takes all the fun out of python. Each question on the midterm and final is an edge case, or some very specific niche that can be easily searched on google in the real world but something you would never think to commit to memory.

Spring 2024 - If you want a professor who's excited about the material, this is not the one. It was difficult to sit through lectures which were not engaging. However, the notes on the jupyter notebook were decent. I also did not appreciate that there were frequently issues on the homework that would get fixed later on in the week. I did like the grading structure, it is very nice to not have to take midterms or finals. I do wish there was more guidance on the "final project", because the professor gave very confusing guidance on the assignment on bruinlearn and barely mentioned it during class lectures. I got far better advice from the TA than the professor when it came to the project.
