Learner Reviews & Feedback for Algorithmic Toolbox by University of California San Diego
About the Course
and searching, divide and conquer, greedy algorithms, dynamic programming. We will learn a lot of theory: how to sort data and how it helps
for searching; how to break a large problem into pieces and solve them recursively; when it makes sense to proceed greedily; how dynamic
programming is used in genomic studies. You will practice solving computational problems, designing new algorithms, and implementing
solutions efficiently (so that they run in less than a second).

The course was really amazing which provided deep knowledge from basic to advance that how algorithms works and how to design algorithms. Thanks to all the expert teachers who taught in this course.

I liked the fact that the algorithms are not just the introductory searching and sorting algorithms. The assignments are fairly difficult (I have decent scripting experience), but not impossibly so.

Once they dig into the material, the difficulty ramps up, and it's absolutely worth it!
