Fall 2023 - Lectures are pretty boring and hard to follow, as the professor constantly goes off on tangents and unrelated topics, so I wouldn't really bother attending. Overall, the class isn't too hard. Tests and homeworks are manageable (but can be long/time-consuming) and fair. As long as you keep up with learning the content (textbook is helpful), you'll do fine in the class.
