Professor is incredibly disorganized, and bullies students to buy the textbook with 1-day Amazon shipping. Not accommodating of circumstances, and says mildly offensive things. Really "classic" engineering boomer professor.
Homework is full of misprints and vagueness (but no extensions for the misprints!) and TAs seem to be confused as well. Also, collaboration outside of Piazza isn't allowed (i.e. you're not allowed to talk to friends about how confusing the HW is), and the professor will constantly threaten to get everyone for academic dishonesty.
Don't take unless you want a headache that lasts 10 weeks. At least exams 1 and 2 were fair, 3 was nothing like the HW or worksheets.
I just dropped this class before second week and I have my textbook brought already. It's new (I only used it for a week). If anyone wants the textbook (the newest version written in December 2019), email me: forever21617103001@gmail.com.
Overall a pretty easy class for upper division CS. Mostly about simulink and you don't do any coding at all. Course reader is needed for homework questions but you can share with a classmate. Professor is nice, but can be disorganized/ambiguous at times. Would recommend if you're looking for a chill class and don't mind going to office hours occasionally to get clarifications on homework and stuff.
