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!

Professor Odersky explains concepts very well and methodically helps one to start thinking in functional programming terms.

Absolutely recommended. Even if you think that you know the basics about FP, I'd still go through this amazing course.

Very good course on functional programming with focus on recursive immutable structures. Expect lots of theory though.

This one is tough (check the forums). Feels like a million bucks to go through with it. Sensei Odersky is the best!!
