    He was a great professor. Fun assignments that actually incentivized learning the material. E.g. Write a platform agnostic backtrack algorithm, and fastest 3 in the course got extra credit.

  His book, the Algorithm Design Manual, gets a lot of praise. But I found it far too fluffy, and lacking in rigor. And he doesn't even do a good job of talking about applications. https://www.redblobgames.com/ https://www.redblobgames.com/ is a really good resource that gives a lot of context, and doesn't shy away from technical details.
