Reviews of professor Barrett Bryant

Rating: 2.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
Took the class Programming Languages taught by him to fulfill my cs degree. Class was mediocore at best, lecture heavy and all over the place. 6 programming assignments given within last month of class. Outdated languages. Final was Monday, last programming assignment due Friday. Hardly any material on how to use Lisp or Prolog Thankful for curve.

Class material is good from book but problem is professor travels most of semester and grader teaches class but is nervous speaker so you don't get a real class taught by the professr

The assignments in this class are confusing and useless. Prolog and Lisp have nothing to do with the tests/homework/class in general. Tests are extremely hard due to poor lecture quality. The class average is consistently failing. Just try to pass the class if you have the misfortune of taking it.

Lots of content. I got the feeling he just wants you to succeed, never complained/seemed upset to go over material again if you dont get it. Main project in the course was a series of cumulative programming assignments, but after each assignments due date he would post a solution you can use for the next step. This made it hard to get stuck.

He assigns homework that uses prolog and lisp. Haven't heard of it, don't worry no one knows what it is. Although the grading on the homework is lenient, they do not correlate with the tests at all. The tests are extremely difficult with the average grades being failing. He does give a curve because if he didn't no one would pass the class.

I agree with the people below. His lectures are way more complited and the tests are absolutely in another level. For more, his assignments are really hard. In the end of semester, he will try to give you 10 slides to read for the most complex test and one nonsense assignment.

Professor himself is pretty knowledgeable and nice enough, but this class is a nightmare. I wouldn't recommend it unless you are specifically interested in it, especially if you're just looking for any elective to finish out your degree. The material is far more difficult than I had been prepared for.
