I was one of the first people to take that course when it first launched in person at UBC! There were a dozen people in that first year pilot program. It gets so much hate for not being a “traditional” Intro to CS course. And yet, learning about recursion so quickly and getting such a strong foundation with it is invaluable for figuring out new ways to solve problems. It’s one of the only courses that I personally think taught me something so fundamental that I still use all the time. Gregor is also a gem of a human. I’m incredibly grateful I’ve been able to get to know and learn from him while at UBC.
