The course is going to take approximately 11 hours to completely but I highly suggest you typing these algorithms out several times in order to get a good grasp of it. You can download the source code of the whole course at the last lecture.
You should definitely take this course if you are interested in advanced topics concerning algorithms. There are a bunch of fields where these methods can be used: from software engineering to scientific research.
Thanks for joining the course, let's get started!
Who this course is for:
This course is meant for everyone from scientists to software developers who want to get closer to algorithmic thinking in the main
