I think it would have been easier for me if I had mastered Linux and ROS before taking this course. So again, the class was a lot of fun but it needs a lot of improvement organization-wise.",

    "comment": "Good prof, but the way this class is set up is poor. You don't really get that great of a feel of the code from the classwork, but the mechanics is also not emphasized. If you want to learn the topic, the effort must come from you, OUTSIDE class. But still fun.",

Don't get me wrong, the exams were brutal, but Adamczyk gives you the resources needed to succeed and the TA's were great too. If you have the chance, take Adamczyk, he makes this class bearable.",
