Reviews of professor Daria Bottan

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
She did a good job at explaining how to use the formulas, but she didn't explain the theory behind them very well. Expect a lot of simple computation and some short proofs, which aren't difficult compared to proofs from other classes, like CS 2800.

I believe it was her first semester teaching at Cornell, but it really showed. I am fairly positive non of the course material was her own and that she was using other professors' material. Also, it's a large lecture hall with low lighting, and for some reason she only did examples on a dark chalkboard. I sat in row 3 and could barely see the work.
