I found the first four assignments to be relatively easy, then the difficulty level ramped up considerably for each subsequent program. Due to trying to finish the course before my SL membership renewal hit, I never did get the last assignment working to the full specifications of the program, but I got enough points from everything else that I still passed the class by a decent margin, so I don't feel bad about that. Note that I had a previous class in Visual Basic and lots of experience at work with bash and korn shell scripting, so although learning C was new to me, I did have some programming experience. A lot of C programming classes seem to use a lot of similar projects, so if you end up getting stuck, google is a great friend. Also, feel free to PM me while you're in the class and I can give some hints or clues about how I approached each program. I won't give you my source code, but I'm more than happy to point you in the direction I went with it.

This is great news! I wondered if this was a difficult course or not. It seems it is. I'm glad you've gotten it out of the way! Congrats!

You may consider it as necro-posting, but my congratulations to you nevertheless! And by the way, I've just finished private advanced courses on C++ a week ago. It took a year from me, and I think I need a lot of practice so far in order to build my career on that, but I'm glad I made it. The point is, I studied at high school with Computer Science as major class when I was young adult. Back then, it was because of my parents who saw my future as software developer. But I was just a regular kiddo and all I wanted was going to parties and have fun, not sparing my time reading documentations and writing pieces of code, so I paid other guys for their doing my homework and assignments in programming
https://www.assignmentexpert.com/programming so I could concentrate on things I considered as more important to me. Way later then, almost a dozen of years after, I recognized how necessary this study is for me, so I'd earned some extra cash and spent it on courses to close gaps I had

I am considering taking this course, with C or Java also being options (I am also going to take either R or Python), but I think I'd prefer a project/lab-only course.

OoO, I'm about finish with my C course at Temple. If anyone needs help in C, I can provide some assistance.
