Comment:
Very clear prof. Will make sure you learn what you need to. Lectures should keep you stimulated enough to keep you interested. One downside: He only cares about his students BEFORE they write their official evaluations of him. Afterwards (i.e. the last week or two) he won't help you at all.

Comment:
I really liked this prof. He had great explanations,he took the time to explain concepts and if he felt we didn't understand he'd come back with more material next class. He was easy to talk to, even though sometimes outside class he was gruff. Take this calss with King because he'll make sure you know the material. Great Prof

Comment:
I actually had Walton for this course, but dropped in on King's for the last few classes. If you have a choice between Walton and King, take King. He's much, much better at explaining the concepts, and I didn't think he was arrogant or anything. It was like my brain started working again in his class. 213's a hard course too.

If you take his class, be prepared for a hefty dose of ego. Did not reply to my emails. Always seemed to be 'busy'. His lectures though were pretty good.

Comment:
Don't hand assignments in late. Not a helpful prof at all. Condescending to students. Believes his classes are the only ones that matter. Actually yelled at a guy for leaving his class when he went overtime so that he could make it to his next class.

Not a good prof. Rude to students. Good luck getting any help from him. Make sure your assigments are handed in on time before class or he will make a fool out of you. No excuses! Final exam was avrage.

Realllly hard exams. Decent at explaining concepts most of the time, but most problems required some "Little Trick" that he showed in class to complete. I don't think he understands that a knowledge of 4th year calculus is not a required for h

Very nice prof. You don't want to skip his class. You will feel bad when the class ends. The teaching style is awesome. The prof is easy going but u have to have interest on the subject. I was expecting a C (because the course is hard) but i got an A. :)

This guy is the devil. Insults students in class for asking "easy" questions, gets frustrated if you can't learn quick enough. Told us for the final we wouldn't need calculators then made it impossible to do without them! Mean...

Awesome instructor, possibly one of the best. Very clear, makes sure everyone understands. Just don't hand in your assign. 5 mins late or you'll regret it. Likes to do "Proof by Example".

Course seemed relatively easy.. and then the final hit. Should do a better job of teaching the concepts if these kinds of questions are asked on the final.
