C++ Programming for Financial Engineering

Pretty pretty good!

The course is comprehensive and systematic.

Forum is quite helpful. I can find answers to almost all my questions there.

My TA is very nice and always replies to my questions quickly.

The course is really helpful for understanding C++ knowledge and interviews. The assignments and exams are demanding and TA is really supportive in giving quick and instructive responses!

The course was great. Gave a nice introduction to object oriented programming. Instructors were quick to respond to any questions. Definitely had me prepared for my MFE program.

Today, I have taken the final exam and received the final grade from my TA. I am really happy that i could finish this course even though at the beginning it was really hard to understand the basic concepts of C++ programming. But, since the first 2 Level, it was getting easier to do the next levels. Thus, learning C++ was a big step towards to pursue financial engineering career for me. Also, I would like to appreciate APalley assistance, my TA, that really helped me finish the course. I am encouraging the people, like me, with no prior programming experience, who want to change the career into financial engineering, to take the course, which will be the great experience.

The quality of the course is guaranteed. As a beginner, I can get all I need from the course materials and the forum. My TA is very easygoing and responsible. Everytime I ask him some questions he will respond promptly and answer my questions patiently.

I think it will be of great help to take the course for my further study in financial engineering.

The course is well-organized and very comprehensive. My TA Avi always provides me with detailed comment on HW and timely response in the forum. Overall, it's a great course and it's worth taking.

The course is quite comprehensive and I enjoyed working on the codes and discovering the solutions with the help of the QuantNet community, the TAs and the internet. Professor Duffy's explanation is clear. What I found most crucial was that there is a structure in the course that is not available on youtube videos or other websites. And for a beginner, structure is very important in that one needs to build the fundamentals in a logical manner. A good stepping stone into the world of programming.

The C++ 11 techniques and optimization skills in this course is very helpful for me in my MFE degree. Also, C++ 11, multi-threading and Boost are required by some companies for quant jobs. Overall, I believe this course is helpful and challenging.

TA is really patient and kind. He helps me solve all the problem in time.

The course is of high quality, I really harvest a lot from that.

It's a really solid and well-designed C++ learning course. I haven't learn any object-oriented programming before but through learning all the materials, lecture videos, doing homework, debugging the program and asking questions, reading the threads, I started to understand how to program in ""Object"" way more and more and improved my programming skill a lot. According to my own experiences taking this course, I need to say this course it's really not easy, especially if you don't have any OOP experiences, but you will definitely benefit from this learning process and won't regret what you have invested on it. I feel like completing this course is not the end but the start, this course opens the C++ world for me, and makes me want to continue to improving my programming ability which is the best thing I got from this course!! So, thanks for Professor @Daniel Duffy's lectures, my TA @APalley's help over these months and all the people's sharing in the forum threads!

The course is really good. I do not have much programming background, but I can still follow the course. The course content is also very good, I benefit a lot from this course. I sincerely want to thank all TAs, since they are very helpful. They always answer my questions quickly and clearly.

It's really a great course that I've learned a lot from. Professor Duffy's slides and lectures are clear and his words in the forum is illuminating. My TA is always there for help, kind and patient. I sometimes got response within a few minutes. It is a valuable learning experience. Thanks a lot.

The TA has excellent availability on the forum and in private msg to help with suggestions on hw. The TA responds quickly.

well-designed course treating a wide range of topics in C++. Always quick responses from the TA

I have learned a lot.

This course was good to learn the basic of C++.

It was tough to complete each level's HW but they definitely helped me understand C++ well.
TA are so good,. They responded my question promptly their advice was so useful.

I really must say that I benefited from the course, being someone new to programming. I was successfully able to make the transition to the intermediate level. The course design was great with constant support from every one doing the course. I would like to make a special mention to my TA Avi Palley who has been extremely helpful throughout my journey. I would recommend this course to anyone who is looking to learn programming to suit their requirement in the field of quantitative finance.

Good comprehensive course for prospective financial engineering students. I didn't have much prior programming experience, so the course felt challenging. The forums were a very good resources -- almost all the problems that I encountered were previously discussed.

Course curriculum was well designed, but I would have liked more of an emphasis on the application of programming in finance. Another module at the end expanding on the concepts discussed in module 9 would have been great.

I thought Avi was a very good TA. His responses were were prompt and his feedback was clear. I appreciated his help throughout the course.

Thanks Avi, Professor Duffy, and the rest of the Quantnet team!

The course design is very good. It first lays a solid foundation for us students by providing the background of C language, and then turns to OOP and generic programming. The TA is very nice and patient and offers me great help. Besides, I learn a lot from discussions in the forum.

I am really happy with this course. TA responds really quick and professor provides high quality and clear lecture. Forums are really helpful.

APalley is my TA and he is really really responsible and nice. I have some self-learning fundamentals in programming, but this course is still very helpful structuring my knowledge. Hope people like it.
