5.0 out of 5 starsFall 2025Prof. BloombergWould take again

Best intro CS class I have ever taken. Professor Bloomberg makes Python feel like second nature. The lectures are super engaging and he actually makes you laugh while learning loops and functions. The homeworks are straightforward if you attend lecture. Final was very fair - all stuff from the slides.

Tip: Go to office hours even if you dont need help. He gives hints about what will be on the midterm.

Every review is free to read. Took CSCI-UA 2? Adding one takes about two minutes.
