Spring 2018: Student Comments

       Explains very fast, sometimes hard to follow.

       Wish I had taken this course earlier, definitely a nice primer for the rest of college in computer engineering

       Course is interesting and you do a very good job of making sense of all the things we don't know yet

       Should teach the language of Matlab more, because I am not going to be able to ust it after this class.

       Very good class for going over and seeing what we will do in ECE
