BURK! Man I miss this guy. Crappy lecturer; great for non-intro classes. Lectures not mandatory, interesting and advanced weekly projects, no exams. You WILL get stuck & have to wait in a long line of people looking for help, but it's worth it — I got 3x better at coding!! RN I'm in CS32 Nabeel (textbook word hunt only) bored out of my skull.

I had him for both CS 16 and CS 24. CS 16 had midterm and final and I believe they were both poorly written and were difficult. On the other hand CS 24 had no tests and the grade is just nine lab assignments. The labs are difficult but I highly appreciate how there are no tests. He is very passionate about material but the assignments are hard.

Not like a traditional class, no exams just all labs. The labs will be difficult so you will have to earn your grade but the guy is always accessible and for help and OH will save your grades

Difficult labs, be ready to go to office hour and using gpt

100% of your grade is on how good you are in coding. If you miss the lectures, the README along with each lab gets you up to speed - if you learn fast. Lectures are interesting! If you get stuck, Kevin, the TAs, and Piazza definitely help. Don't forget about valgrind if you're stuck with segfaults! Definitely one of the professors of all time.

Best prof ever. Super enthusiastic and engaging. I've never learned more from a class. Also had him for cs32 and he was great.
