C++ Programming for Financial Engineering

This course is amazing and definitely better than I expected. I have learned some programming before in school; this course still allows me to learn even more and solidify my programming background. The structurer is well organized, the TA is very helpful and friendly, the material is very robust and the practice homework are really practical. I used Matlab and Python a lot, but after getting through the training from this course, I feel like my overall programming skill improve a lot. I strongly recommend this course to whoever that needs to review or learn the programming from the beginning. However, one tip is that be prepared and plan to devote lots of time. This course is more rigorous then the syllabus seems.

The lecture is very high quality and TA's feedback on homework very helpful

It is really important for the financial field and can help me pursue the higher quality works.

it is an excellent course!

It’s a great course and the work is intense. Very good start for programming.

I like this course for its comprehensive topics and well-designed homework. However, I think it might be better if it could be more compatible with different laptops especially for the code given in level 9.

The topics and materials covered are very well-organized and helpful. My TA APalley is very patient. APalley always provide detailed feedbacks on my homework. The forum also played a very helpful role since Dr. Duffey and TAs reply quickly. It's greatly beyond what I expected from an online course.

Course was very good, covered some great concepts that I will take into the office with me.

This is the best investment anyone can make for learning C++. The curriculum will expose you to all the core concepts of C++ and even some basic design principles. The "Applications in Finance" is especially refreshing as it gives you a sneak peek into the world of computational finance and the relevance of C++ in the field.

The course is very well structured. I’ve had experience in python programming, but this course offered me so much more knowledge, especially OOP. I have enjoyed this course very much

the course is hard but as future mfe student, we should understand that.Yes this meets my original goal

i would say this is a great journey and it actually provides me more career options. it helps me to build solid c++ skills and basic computational finance knowledges and those are just my expectations for this course.

Overall, it's an excellent course. Not only Dr.Duffy's instruction is clear and thorough, but also our tutors are patient and skillful. I felt very satisfied with the course contents which is essential for our skill development and career path.

The quality of the course was great as I was able to learn about the basic of C++ in just 10 weeks.

It did give me a solid background in c++ and it was interesting in the end to use it for some financial applications. I think the final exam which is really just debugging intensive is too heavily weighted. It doesn't reflect programming ability and it stopped me from getting an A.

It's the great one in all my CS courses, I learnt a lot of what I want from it, I think level9 is the best one.

The course is well organized, and I benefit a lot from this course.

I really enjoyed the quality of the exercises, feedback, and grading

Sincerely speaking, I start working with the course with no C++ background. During this challenging process, TA's assistance and threads posted on the forum truly help me out. This course builds a solid foundation for my future C++ program learning.

This course is more than an university course. It is much more in-depth and practical. Alternatively saying, this is really rigorous course, and I personally invested a huge amount of time to learn and implement concepts and codes. Feedbacks from TA were also extremely quick and helpful. I have never seen this kind of online lecture, this course is so detail-oriented , at the same time it dealt with a vast range of Programming concepts.

I believe that if a student puts a fair amount of time and effort, he/she can learn more than his initial expectation. (if..! is important here)
