Message: <blockquote data-quote="longgamma" data-source="post: 250454" data-attributes="member: 37529">I hope this review helps someone on the edge and how it helped me in my work.Background: Equity derivatives sales/trading with some knowledge of Excel VBA to automate repetitive work. Did the program after 10 years from undergrad and had some basic idea from programming Matlab.This course is basically a CS101 course along with a TA to review assignments and clear your doubts. It is well structured and paced to give you a start on C++ and object oriented programming. Post this course, I am not a C++ engineer, but am much more comfortable with programming VBA and understand Python much better. Especially, the part on OOP, is so important as you learn to make your code modular and can apply it in any use case.There is a lot to learn after this program, no doubt about that, but it gives you the confidence to learn on your own and not get bogged down.This is a solid start and miles better than other MOOCs available as you get access to a TA to clear up your doubts. The reading materials are self contained and I didnt need anything from outside to complete the certificate. Good luck!</blockquote>
