Is this 6.0 course in fall of 2008 material currently relevant in a usable way for the current industry workplace?

Yes, the video of projected example code is unreadable in first class, but gets better in second. Great class!

Very well outlined and good at explaining the basics but video quality is very poor on ipad so you cannot tell what they are typing or doing on the screen

I would have liked the summary pages to write notes. Are they somewhere? the video is not clear enough to see the projector displaying overhead. I assume the process will get better. the lecture is very helpful and very understandable. I have programmed for many years thus I am starting over.

You cannot expect a better course for beginners!

The lectures are nice, but the resolution is so low that you can barely make out the chalk board, and you can't see the code on the computer screen at all. This makes it mostly useless. Going to try Harvard's courses instead.

Awesome course! I am currently taking a diploma called Internet Applications and Web Development, one class is about Java and is for beginners, me. Thanks to this course's approach and transferability I am understanding Java a bit better.

I guess professors are a hit or miss. The professor in the beginning was really good!

I knew nothing about programming, and now, I know so much, thanks to the easy to understand lessons.

A very simple course for those with no programming experience which becomes more complex with every next lecture! A great way to learn more about programming!

Everything is clearly explained from very basic principals on up. I find the bad jokes of the lecturers give the course some personality. Love it, one of the best learning experiences I've had, especially when combined with the open study discussion group.

This is the best one that I've watched and I can catch every pieces of information prof. taught. For me, a 0-level beginner, this is what I exactly need!

whilst some people might find the lecturing style a bit bland, I found this quite helpfull. its great because there are so few resources out there for people with no programming ability whatsoever, like me, so its always pleasing to find a course that even beginers can take and still benefit from...Read full review »

This class is Great for beginners. I was able to follow even with no experience. I really appreciate Prof John Guttag taking the time to re-due class 5 for the people watching online. Both teachers are amazing.

I found the course work to be a nice refresher in some simple core algorithms, but I have found myself really understanding the rational for each type of algorithm. This is only years after taking comp sci in college. Great work

If you truly want to get the full impact of this course, combine listening and following this with also practising and going through "learn python the hard way". Google it. Azeem A.

Regarding the video being washed out, this is probably an artifact of the compression used by Apple for the version that's posted here. If you stream it from MIT's site, it's much clearer. In general, you're much better off watching these lectures through their OCW site, which is where you can...Read full review »

There is a wealth of information provided in these lectures and the professors do an amazing job of articulating fundamental programming concepts. A must for anyone passionate about programming. Thank you MIT!!

Привет из Киева! Большое спасибо Вам за замечательный курс! Greetings from Kiev, Ukraine! Thank you for this great course!

Learning curve is not too fast or slow, and the professors explain concepts very well. If you want to learn how to code, you must watch this course!
breakz08 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/05/11
Wow
Anyone who wants to be educated can have this information for free! Thank you MIT and Apple.

Wow. This is AMAZING!!! And he was right when he said you cant be under qualified. Im only 14 and learned a ton from this. I wish he would have used c++ instead of Python, but that's just opinion. This was great. THANK YOU MIT!!!

Great programming course but also if you want to learn python as that's what I'm learning and these are good paced lectures and the teacher is really good.

Very talented lecturer. If only all comp sci professors could teach so well.
Malloc() via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/21/11
Well-organized, great professors, challenging but not too difficult -- this course has been an amazing experience. I have been programming a little bit for many years (a small amount of PHP and Perl), but I had never officially taken a course in programming. I wanted to learn Python for a new...Read full review »

Loved the instruction and would have given it 5 stars but couldn't see the example code work on the overhead projector. Bravo MIT!

I think i can be a certificate-less computer engineer with this.,.., ;)

I attended law school. Soon after graduation I realized I had trained myself in arts outdated. Thanks to MIT for giving me the opportunity to "attend" world class CS courses. Sharing is the beauty of the Internet. I am disappointed that my alma mater, the Univ. of Illinois, doesn't share...Read full review »

Thank you to school and staff for making this available on iTunes U.
RambunctiousGoose via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/21/10
The fact python colors commands like print plus the low picture quality make for hard to see examples. Five stars for simply allowing me the opportunity to learn from such a great school. Minus one personal star for projector recording fail in a class about computer programming.
UnityIsPower2 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/09/10
Good explanations, but when the instructor starts to do examples using a projector, the screen is to washed out to see what he is typing.

Great course, well taught. Great catch up.
