Great course with really interesting and challenging assignments that allow to get more precise vision on programming languages (especially on PL's typing systems) and get experience with modern LISP

This course (as Part A and C) is great - Dan is great in teaching and the content is perfect for anyone who wants to learn more about programming languages!
Warning - you might end up loving FP :)

The course is really fantastic! It leads me to the world of Racket programming and guides me to many concepts in programming language theory (PLT).

Suitable even for experienced programmers.
Excellent presentation of fundamental programming concepts.
Exercises are challenging but rewarding.

The programming assignments are carefully designed such that without so much coding you can capture the essence of the idea. Highly recommend.

It's challenging as much as it is rewarding, and the peer review is a very nice arrangement for people to see how others are doing things!

Great follow-up to Part A, really builds on the concepts introduced there and tackles some quite complex topics (writing an interpreter)!

This course presents a beautiful contrast between static and dynamic Type Systems. Week's 2 homework is challenging and rewarding.

The latter half of this course is much harder than the former, but there are still knowledge I can understand. Next step, Part C

Parenthesising expressions has never been more fun. And you get to implement your own Lisp dialect.
