Lectures are monotonous and dull. This class will be fairly easy if you have previous python experience but exceptionally more difficult if you are new to programming. Be sure to stay on top of all your work and seek out help!

Comment:
While accessible and understanding, the way Meadow structures this class makes it very difficult for people who are new to programming. He explains the basics well enough, but as class goes on he seems to rely more heavily on students having previous experience. Homeworks are increasingly difficult, plan on seeking help.

Comment:
This has been the worst class I've ever taken. Unless you've had prior programming experience, you will not pass this class. He only provides online resources for reading material and the homework/labs/exams are extremely difficult. At some points, the material in the homework was gone over in class after the homework was due.

Stick to the books, not the classes and find outside programming help. He takes forever to go over each topic and makes something simple very confusing.

Comment:
Cool guy but he didn't spend enough time on the extreme basics in programming. The HW is extremely hard, so don't expect to finish it on your own unless you have a lot of previous programming exp. I had to keep myself from falling asleep in every lectures, I'd like him to read me bet time stories.

He makes the class seem harder than it is. He will spend two lectures on a chapter that you can read in about 10 minutes and understand it better than he does. I stopped going to class after about three weeks and still got an A. Just read the chapter which is usually no more than 10 pages and do the assignments and you will do fine.

Very clear and keeps it as interesting as possible, though the material does gets very boring and tedious at times. The assignments are also pretty interesting.
