I loved this course! It is unlike any I have taken before. All courses in this specialization have always included fun activities to make the taught content fun and understandable.

I was really impressed especially with the RSA portion of the course. It was really well explained, and the programming exercise was cleverly designed and implemented. Well done.

Alhamdulillah. Finally, I can pass this course, although not perfectly 100%, but I really proud of my self. Thanks to all lecturers in this course. I've got a lot of knowledge so far, especially in Number Theory. For cryptography subject, that's so hard. Not every people can solved it perfectly since it need a lot of creativity and logic.

The course material is very good. The exercise is very well prepared, especially the RSA quest in the end. Although the lecture in Week 3 and 4 seems a little bit fast, it's reasonable considering the amount and complexity of the knowledge that needs to be covered in such a short amount of time. I highly recommended this course.

My only critique to this course are the final two quizzes of week 4. The very final quiz relies on you having successfully completed most of the penultimate quiz and is more of a "copy and paste" session. The RSA part (week 4) of this course had not been covered at my University and was very interesting.

It was a huge fun to do the last quiz when you follows all the constructions and instructions made, and suddenly it felt like a new world full of interests opened to me, with only one single but complicated (just for me lol) case in cryptography, and inspired me a lot in this *mighty* field.

Alhamdulillah. I have learnt many things from this course. Thanks the three course instructor for taking this course. Most interesting things of the course for me was The end RSA Quest quiz. Again, Thanks coursera.

Enjoyable and informative if the student applies oneself. RSA Quest was fun even though the last question was beyond me.
