I am not a programmer but still I loved programming after taking Mr. Acharya's class.

One of the best professors at UAH who explains every concept clearly, but we need to do our homework. The professor is quick in replying to the emails, and he is always there if we need any help with the coursework. His hints and input on the type of interview questions in algorithms helped me fetch an internship.

Not many homeworks, but they can be time consuming to do, a couple of programming assignments that aren't too bad. Tests can be a bit challenging, but he gives partial credit on tests so it's always worth it to at least try to answer a question even if you can only get halfway. Very likable guy, but his lectures can be a bit boring.

You'll get a good grade if you practice coding in Visual Studio a lot and study hard for tests, they affect your grade the most. If you're having difficulty, go to office hours (just send an email, he's super available). You have to make 3 programs. Start on them right away and try to figure them out on your own. it's the best way to learn

Dr. Deepak is one of the best professors I've had so far. He tended to make some things hard to understand but his English was good. I didn't just work hard still I made B+ grade without any programming experience. I would recommend his course to beginners in programming or to other majors who just like to fulfill the requirement.

Took him during my first semester for Intro to C. Then I took him again for this 317 course. Would gladly take him for any other ones as well. He gives good lectures, is willing to explain any unclear concepts, fast email responses, and the tests are fair. Take him if you can.

He's great & will teach you what you need to know!!! It's best to talk to him in person if you have questions. I personally did not enjoy emailing him for help or questions. If you have experience in C programming that will help you with this class. He is not hard to understand at all. Just ask him to clarify or repeat. He's only human.

Great professor. Only get two midterms and a final so be sure to study but his tests arent overly complicated or pulling from material we haven't gone over in class/assignments. Definitely worth taking.

Read the slides, do the quizzes, and you're going to do well. Professor is fast and extremely enthusiastic in class to respond to email.
