I agree.

One of the best courses i had taken on Coursera was the Algorithms series by Robert Sedgewick. Apart from going through the lectures, i had obtained a great satisfaction from solving the assignments. But this year, i have taken up the lab assignments for the following: https://cs144.github.io/ https://tc.gts3.org/cs3210/2020/spring/info.html

Both have been recommended earlier on HN.

Next on my list is 6.824



I started that course, by my God his presentation is so...sleep-inducing for me. Contrast this with Peter Norvig, who is engaging and scintillates with passion about the subject. By contrast, Sedgewick has this smirk on the whole time, and talks in a monotone. His content is first rate, of course, but sheesh, he's got to work on that pedagogy!


speed it up 1.5x and its fine


Subjective - I like it


Any idea where to get the lecture videos for CS144?


When i had started they were available on Lagunita. Looks like the same videos are available on Youtube.
