I think the notes are pretty clear compared to other lecturer, also at the end of the semester it has a fully summarized notes for us in latex, and it is pretty useful no matter for revision or in exams, I appreciate the summarization of the whole course, which help me a lot in studying through the whole course and improve my understanding. However, I think his gradings are not very reasonable, since this course is optimization methods, it requires us to do pretty many calculation in the exams, and when I do wrong in part a) and get wrong answer, I just simply get 0 marks afterwards, not even those parts that is not related to part a) answer. Wrong is wrong, I know i shouldn't blame him for this, but it is pretty frustrating and this is penalizing student who actually knows the steps of doing the whole question, just making some careless mistake at the start, especially the algorithm taught in class won't be hand calculated in real situation, penalizing student by purely calculation mistake is not reasonable imo. Overall, this is still a good course just remember to check twice in exams and not to make any mistake early.
Result: B+
