@PerverseBannana I think he is extremely boring. Instead of talking about real programming he is cracking jokes. What makes programming interesting is reasoning and logic but not jokes. If this was a class of computer science students they’d feel ripped off, trust me.

@oringent He doesn’t “Make” it look easy. The beginning parts are very easy and thats why it looks this way. He’s doing a great job teaching it, and I don’t see any reason to complain. The fact that he’s taking it slow is only helpful to the students. Also, it’s a lot easier to learn something when the presentation isn’t boring.

@pagola If people think this subject is boring they shouldn’t take the course and he should know this. He is making it look all easy but once these guys try work on a real project they will fail. He needs to cut the bullshit and be straight with these ppl.

Not a single professor at our uni would help a student in such a way richard did at the end of the video. kudos to him for beeing so cooperative.

@mcshadypies I dont know what you find so great about is lecture style. its a pretty bad presantation of the actual stuff. not a lot substance, lot of comedy. But you are not at uni for comedy mate. The stuff he taught in the first 5 lectures could have been taught in 1hour.

he is a very nice guy, but not a really good teacher, he spends a lot of precious time with jokes and irrelevant stuff. I have watched 4 lectures (more than 2.5 hours) and the content was about an hour or maybe a little more…

The printf function actually returns the number of characters printed, but this is not very useful.

Great section of lectures, but this is a really messed up file, between the audio offset and ending

The name a.out exists for historical reasons, it is short for assembler output.
