As expected Martin is awesome in explaining principle of functional programming. I have started reading the book as well to make sure I keep up with the knowledge which I have gained from this course.
It took me much longer than expected to finish the course and sometimes it made me feel stupid and helpless. Diving into functional programming was a mind bending experience, totally worth time spent!

•Good course for learning functional paradigm coupled with object oriented concept. Very well planned course. It is definitely a great learning opportunity.
Thanks

•I learned a lot in this course. Lots of it I knew, but now I feel I understand the basics better. Very well worth the time and efforts to complete this course.

•Excelente curso, aprendi muito sobre programação funcional. Quem não tem muito conhecimento sobre Java pode ter um pouco de dificuldades em algumas etapas.

•Good introduction to scala principles. However some assignements are little bit hard, more concentrated on algorithms than scala itself. But I recommend.

•Very interesting course, and a pretty challenging one. I particularly loved how the nitty-gritties of the Scala programming languge have been presented.

•Although the course lacks some details, I really appreciated it, especially the assignments emphasizing the coding format and testing. I learned a lot !

•I feel like I learned quite a bit about functional programming. I was always curious about Scala since my college days. I highly recommend this class.

•I would have liked to see examples applicable to situations closer to the business reality, despite that, I really liked it and I recommend the course.

•High level course. Exercises are academic of nature. You might need more time to finish the exercises. I appreciate that this is a well formed course.
von Dani G
•Great Course to be familiar with the functional programming principles. Missing a little bit more solved examples and some more fundamental materail
von Jose C C F
•It could have some more tests for the code in the assignments, otherwise its kind of difficult to test your own code. At least one test per method
von Dung V
•I like this course. It can help me about practise programing scala easily. In here, I can learn scala programming quickly with support everyone.
von Boris E
•Wish they didn't restructure the old classes, now it offers less of the interesting material. Fantastic course nonetheless, highly recommended.
von Philipp J
•you can learn a lot and the course is prepared really well. Sometimes I would wish to have some more practical and less mathematical examples.
von BIN L
•quite good course & professor, just the exercise is a bit too much for a beginner; more suitable for people who are familiar with the syntax
von Christian B
•More explanations on the basics of the language to start would be helpful. First try to express it in languages and terms that are familiar
von Michal N
•Pretty good course on Scala. Only thing they can change is to move Week 4 assignment to week 5 - because Week 5 videos help a lot with it.
von Dmytro K
•Heavy lecture material. Programming assignments require some work or preset knowledge of functional programming to succesfully complite.
von Leo A
•This course gives a very nice introduction to Functional Programming whilst introducing you to the idiosyncrasies of the Scala language.
von ZHANG X
•The course provide a way to see programming differently. The exercices are very difficult. It would be nice to provide more test cases.
von Kenneth M
•A very good beginners course for learning Scala. The lectures are a bit dry but overall a very good course with good assignments.
von Tomasz K
•Good way to learn by doing - assignments extend lectures and give additonal approach to deal with the all programming issues.
von Hitesh
•Brilliant Course, had lots of fun coding. It was challenging and stimulating. Thanks Prof. Odersky for putting this together.
von William S
•Good starting course, helps to have a little knowledge of Scala or Java already and also a decent understanding of recursion.
von Xiao L
•very good course. good organize and materials, and homework assignments.
homework is hard, hope can provide more test cases.
