About the Course

This course covers the essential information that every serious programmer needs to know about algorithms and data structures, with emphasis on applications and scientific performance analysis of Java implementations. Part I covers elementary data structures, sorting, and searching algorithms. Part II focuses on graph- and string-processing algorithms. All the features of this course are available for free. It does not offer a certificate upon completion....

Pretty challenging course, but very good. Having a book is a must (at least it was for me), video lectures complement book nicely, and some topics are explained better in the Algorithms, 4th ed. book.

Rich content. Liked the teaching style as well. But wish that it had an as-strong supporting system as Part I's and mentors/fellow students could answer more questions.

Prof. Sedgewick does an amazing job in explaining the mechanics of the fundamental algorithms and data structures. I have thoroughly enjoyed this course (and Part I).

Best algorithms course. Great assignments. The only problem - bad microphone (it was much better in Algorithms, Part I). Must be completed by every IT specialist.

Awesome course. Helped me understand graph better. The API is simple and effective. I implemented the whole API and have been using it in my other graph solutions

"Remind me again why I'm trying to figure out if Detroit was eliminated back in American League '96" - me, at 4:00 AM

"Where is Week 7?" me, a few days later.

Great quality of academic content. Mr Sedgewick is a great lecturer and the programming tasks, though hard, help you dive deep into the Java implementations.

This is an excellent course as an introduction to algorithms. Together with part 1, the Princeton Algorithms series is the best MOOC course I've ever done.

Excellent course and materials about algorithms and data structures. Very challenging exercises that make you think hard to achieve the passing score.

Complex concepts in plain language. Challenging and interesting practice exercises. Without them it's impossible to fully understand theoretical part.

Excellent follow-on from Part I - covers additional algorithms in depth and the excellent examples really help to learn and understand the material.

Every single programming assignment was both challenging and fun. I learned really good algorithms and overall I feel I'm a better Software Engineer

Excellent! Sedgwick explains things in such a way that is both extremely intuitive but also makes the code practically write itself!

Feels like a great foundation on data structures and algorithms.

And teaches the basics of fast and efficient programs.
