Starting with an An Intro to Algorithms

There were a few reasons to get started with a Udacity course. The simplest of the reason was that Udacity courses are straightforward, short, and easy to grok.

So, what is it? Does this mean we are shying away from chalenges?

No. We are in this for the long hault, considering how many times we have restarted learning and re learning CS.

So, what is it? Why are we looking at Udacity?

We are looking at Udacity, because

• If you want to learn the fundamentals of CS, and want to do so at MIT OCW CS level, then it makes sense to have a soft start. This is similar to how Indian students learn the same topics in Physics and Chemistry thrice, from secondary school, higher secondary to their first two years at college. Two years of the same topics, done three times.
• The goal right now is not strength but endurance. MIT OCW CS is a pretty huge goal, but what if you had an easy curricullum? Would you show up for Udacity day after day, everyday? If you get this, showing up everyday is the challenge, and can we have this level of self discipline?

So, there you go. Dream big all that you want to, but show up everyday. Can we do that?
