Yup, I'm for a bit of that too. Should be good fun.

Had a good few nights up to 3am trying to get the assignments done on time which is no good when you've got a full time day job and other personal commitments. My advice is to take one at a time, unless you have the time to do both (like if you're a student or something)

Well, I have done three at the same time before - all completed. I promised myself I wouldn't do it again, so it's probably better described as "foolhardy" rather than "praise-worthy".

The android course, Cryptography I, and Combinatorial Game Theory. Fortunately the last of those isn't taking up much time at all so far.

Thank you, Tim! Yes, I did search through the future courses but couldn't find anything in the near future. So, I thought I'd ask here if someone has previously taken a course like that on Courseera.Tim Cooke wrote:You can search all the courses coming up on the Coursera website.
Yes, I can't wait to get started thereTim Cooke wrote:But I think you're about to get a TDD and OO Design course from Junilu in your other OO Design: Banking thread.

The grids, graphs and things like that always look scary and to add to that this assignment has that probability threshold calculation also and those math formula ( PercolationStats ) are even more scary. Has anybody already submitted the week1 solution?
