Initially I wasn't that interested in the course material, but I ended up loving this class because of Prof. Sehat. He takes feedback and genuinely cares about students. His expectations are really clear and his lectures are engaging- please take a class with him if you get the chance!

The materials are really heavy and hard toward the end of the class, but professor Sehat did an amazing job of teaching and tried to give out good grades as much as possible. TA Justin Feng was super helpful even though it was his first-time TA-ing. 4 quizzes (35%, drop the lowest quiz), each covers materials of every 2 weeks (ie no need to review the old materials for the next quiz). 2 projects (35%) that long so needed to start early and hw (30%) every 1 or 2 weeks that is basically a preparation for the quizzes. Overall, you will learn a lot in this class and I appreciate the professor for making this class enjoyable. He also gives a lot of extra credit.

Loved taking the class with Nader! He was a great professor, very good at lecturing, and gave a lot of extra credit opportunities for students to make up. Really enjoyed the class!

If you can take this class with Prof Sehat, then do it. You will not find a better professor for this course. Prof Sehat is very efficient with his lectures so you will learn a lot of topics. And he explains the material quite clearly. However, most of them should be familiar as you should have learned them in CS33. There are no midterms and final, but there were 4 quizzes (could change depending on your classes speed). The quizzes are fair and expect to use the entire allocated time to finish it. The homework isn't that bad, just make sure you understand the material. For me at least, the 2 projects weren't that bad. If you understand the material, you should be able to do everything in a day or day and day half.

Great professor. Very helpful.

Cool and very understanding professor. Taught classes clearly and provides past HWs and quizzes that you can practice with.

Grading is based on two programming assignments, 3 quizzes, several homeworks, and participation. The homeworks are graded on completion but are very similar to the quizzes. The two programming assignments take less time to complete compared to other CS class's projects (118, 35L, 33, etc.). For participation you need campuswire points or to go to 70% of lectures.

The quizzes were very reasonable and Nader was (in my opinion), a very lenient teacher. He made the quizzes open-Internet/open-book. He extended project due dates because people asked for an extension on Campuswire. He drops a HW grade despite them being graded on completion. I somehow got an A- despite scoring in the 70s for all 3 quizzes (not because they were hard, but because I am stupid). Overall an extremely chill teacher who made the class material very engaging.
