Excellent course to further hone your programming skills and computational thinking - I will forever see programming languages in a new light.

excellent, i couldn`t take it few years ago - due to my bad english, today i really enjoy it.

Many things that seemed difficult for me are not.

Great course for whoever is interested in understanding more about how programming languages works (statically typed in part A of the course)

Very good instructor, challenging but doable homework for week 3 and 4. Exam is too easy though. I would like the exam to be more difficult.

Excellent course. Learn important functional programming concepts, using SML. Very good teacher with excellent videos and written material.

Great course. Lectures are clear and homework really helps understand the abstract concepts. Thank you for making this available for free!

such a clear introduction to Functional Programing. My fear of 'academic functional style' is totally gone, and really like recursion now.

Instructor is clear and interesting. Course material builds in a way that helps you learn it. Great class, thanks for making it online.

Great course, if you want to learn the foundations of functional programming in a purely functional language this is the course for you!

This is absolutely a challenge course for those people who are not familiar with functional programming. Nice course material and teach.

Covers essential functional idioms, and explores ways of computation different than the usual imperative, object-oriented patterns.

This course is fantastic. Taking this course is a very rewarding experience. A great investment for sure! Thank Dan and his team!

Thank you, professor Dan Grossman!

I've learned a lot amoung this course, and had inspired a lot from those concepts you taught.

One of my favourite courses on Coursera, first took it in 2013 and had much fun taking it again in 2019 to refresh my knowledge

This course is strongly recommended for those who wants to learn functional programming and programming languages in general.

The lectures in this course are extraordinary, especially the ones that explain motivations and how the material was chosen.

I could learn the terms pertain to programming languages, and I could grab the concept of funnctional programming. Thanks.

i can't believe i have learnt so much about PL. prof. Dan knows exactly what kind of concept a beginner should grasp most.

Great course! It taught me how to think in a functional way, as well as some funtamental truth about programming. Thanks!

Amazing course, really good to dive into some functional concepts and learn more about functional programming languages.

Very rewarding, worth taking. It enhanced my understanding of what is programming. I learned some principles of coding.

Great quality teaching and challenging homework. Much appreciated. Hoping for the Part B, and C to be on coursera soon.

Excellent instruction. I feel my programming ninja powers have definitely increased. Can't wait to do parts B and C.

good introduction to functional programming . sml is a fun language with type checking system and beautiful syntax.

The course has changed the way I approach and learn new programming languages. I am going to take part B and C too!
