I went to every class and took extensive notes.. of which were barely referred to during tests. Didn't tell us what to expect for the midterm and failed over 100 people. class average was 35%. Better off taking with anyone else, and if you can't, take it another semester.

Comment:

He definitely knows what he is doing and provides plenty of examples with great analogies. His lectures are decent with a lot of information provided to you. His slides he works from are not available online and attendance is a must. The assignments contained only what was covered in class with very clear grading criteria.

Comment:

His assignments are a lot easier than his exams are. His communication isn't great either. I re-took the class with another prof and ended up learning more. I agree with previous comments about him being unapproachable and being close minded when it comes to students asking for help.

Don't get fooled from what he says in class, does not have good stand, Never spend no time on thory in class but in final exams found out 120/180 marks were for objective type question.

Comment:

He is a good teacher, But after i finished my final i wasn't sure if he was a great prof anymore. I had about 80 before i went to the final and after the final i failed the class. I tried to contact the prof but he didn't respond very nicely. I wont recommend this guy to anyone because he is a tough marker and you can expect anything from him.

A very smart professor, with a exceptionally clear logical flow. If you want to really learn the subject, with deep insights sometimes, he's the best one.

Comment:

I don't understand how the class average can drop so much from a final. No grade was given for assignments. He was rude to students in class. It was insufferable. I honestly wish I took this class from someone else. I suggest others do the same.

Comment:

Very strict and hard on midterms i.e 3 midterms, no grading for assignments, one final which was extremly hard becuase we were doing very good in his hard and difficult midterms. I am surprised with my class avg as it is still 60-70 as ialways used to hear 40-50 for CS.... wow but again if u r cs major, he is gud but not for others....

Comment:

Lectures are easy enough to understand but I find him incredibly disrespectful to the students in his class. He is condescending and has an arrogant attitude. He demands respect without returning it. It made it very difficult for me to enjoy the class,

Comment:

His lectures are excellent. You can understand very easily. But what you need to have high mark in this course is practice. He is a strict prof, his exams are not easy too. If you want to gain true knowledge and challenge yourself, you should take this class

Tough grader, also very condescending to his students. He treats people like they're stupid if they ask questions. If I didn't know what I was doing beforehand this would have slaughtered me. Grammatical skills are low "dice"

Comment:

He is very grouchy, annoying, irritable, selfish, grotesque, and proud: his classes are neither motivational nor exciting to me. He is very bossy, unhelpful, and has complicated issues with his personality and mentality. I advice you withdraw from his class if you have his during the first two weeks of his class.
