Series Details

About

Algorithms are at the heart of Computer Science. The ability to be able to tell the computer what to do clearly, succinctly, and most importantly efficiently is an art. In this course we'll dive deep into the important topics in design and analysis of algorithms. We'll learn various strategies for designing algorithms and their application. All of this will be done in Python (however, you may use other programming languages if you wish so). Basic knowledge of python (or other programming language) is expected.

Tutor Qualifications

I understand algorithms very well, and have been using python for 4 years. I scored a 5/5 on AP Computer Science A.
