Winter 2026 - personally, I enjoyed this class, but I understand why others might not. if you do not have any experience whatsoever with programming, stats 20 may be a bit difficult (if you took stats 10 before this it will provide a good enough foundation IMO). take good notes in lecture and make sure you don't fall behind on homework assignments. the exams are not horrible but not easy either. take advantage of office hours and discussion to keep up. professor Maierhofer has very clear slides and is a solid lecturer. around week 7 assignments and project work begins to stack up like crazy so be prepared! a personal qualm I had with this class is the expectation to use generative AI in some later assignments (for some complicated homework problems and in the personal project). overall useful class
