8.9 / 10

CourseMarks Score® helps students to find the best classes. We aggregate 18 factors, including freshness, student feedback and content diversity.

Freshness

Course content can become outdated quite quickly. After analysing 71,530 courses, we found that the highest rated courses are updated every year. If a course has not been updated for more than 2 years, you should carefully evaluate the course before enrolling.

Popularity

8.4 / 10
We analyzed factors such as the rating (4.6/5) and the ratio between the number of reviews and the number of students, which is a great signal of student commitment.

New courses are hard to evaluate because there are no or just a few student ratings, but Student Feedback Score helps you find great courses even with fewer reviews.

Material

9.0 / 10
Video Score: 8.7 / 10
The course includes 7h 26m video content. Courses with more videos usually have a higher average rating. We have found that the sweet spot is 16 hours of video, which is long enough to teach a topic comprehensively, but not overwhelming. Courses over 16 hours of video gets the maximum score.
The average video length is 6 hours 42 minutes of 133 Algorithms courses on Coursera.
Detail Score: 8.3 / 10

The top online course contains a detailed description of the course, what you will learn and also a detailed description about the instructor.

About the course

The course covers basic algorithmic techniques and ideas for computational problems arising frequently in practical applications: sorting and searching, divide and conquer, greedy algorithms, dynamic programming. We will learn a lot of theory: how to sort data and how it helps for searching; how to break a large problem into pieces and solve them recursively; when it makes sense to proceed greedily; how dynamic programming is used in genomic studies. You will practice solving computational problems, designing new algorithms, and implementing solutions efficiently (so that they run in less than a second).

What can you learn from this course?

✓ Essential algorithmic techniques
✓ Design efficient algorithms
✓ Practice solving algorithmic interview problems
✓ Implement efficient and reliable solutions
