The only thing I'd say is that he does sometimes go off topic in class that isn't really relevant to the topics we learn but other than that take this class if you want an intro to coding! ",

All you have to do is go to the lecture, follow along with him, and do the out-of-class short assignment, and you will get an A. He gives 200 extra points in the beginning, middle, and end. Attendance is mandatory. TAKE THE CLASS WITH HIM!!",
