Really good explanation by the instructor. Good assignments. The assignments gave a good insights into functional programming. I loved the way the problems were decomposed into neat smaller functions.

It took me much longer than expected to finish the course and sometimes it made me feel stupid and helpless. Diving into functional programming was a mind bending experience, totally worth time spent!

This is a good course, but you need basic understanding how FP works. Better to have some basic programming skill.

scala 创始人的课程,当然很正!不过美中不足的是,感觉作业的设计应该更加细腻一点,最好是采用quiz问题和综合编程题结合的方式。对于刚刚学完第四周的课程的同学,第四周对应的作业显然有些难度偏大而且用到了还没学到的知识。

An incredibly helpful course. Certainly not easy but you will learn a ton about functional programming basics.
