    Really interesting course. The interactive coding sessions with swirl are especially useful. Would be great, if you provided sample solutions for the programming assignments, in particular for week 4.

    It is a very worthwhile class, but I think the assignment is a little harder than the lecture.

    The course is good for someone with no background of programming. But it is not very rigorous.
