Tries to act like he's professional, yet consistently posts sloppy autograders late. Had to email him for half of the homework autograders because they were either incorrect (i.e. my code was correct but was failing the autograder for whatever reason) and/or posted days, even weeks after the assignment was posted on Canvas. Had to wait almost a week for a response from him so ended up going through the TA anyway. I find it ironic that a professor who is so strict about people not turning in things late constantly posts things and responds to emails late himself. As for the content, I'm fine with self-teaching so I didn't go to any lectures, so I can't speak about the quality of those. Not the worst professor in the world, but would recommend avoiding if possible.

He's ok. No exams so that's a nice thing. You have weekly exercises during discussion and there's 4 big homework assignments. He says he will help, but he's usually busy, so you got to rely on the TAs. Lectures are not mandatory but they're also not helpful, so you have to teach yourself a good portion of the content.

He's a good professor and knows what he's talking about but loves to go on irrelevant tangents about his job.

Excellent professor. He goes over all the content; if you ask questions, he will answer. People are just salty because they haven't programmed or aren't trying to in the future, so they are shocked that they had to be engaged just a bit to get an A.

If you are as good as a professor at Python, take this course. The professor never tells us anything related. You'll have to find everything on the Internet. It will also inform you of the assignment through a link to the MIT professor's lecture. If we understand and understand that, we'll be sitting at MIT. TA also doesn't know what the task is about. When you ask a question, you say, "Uh……" for half an hour. If you're really confident in Python, go for it!
