  • I wish my lecturer had taught us this way..

    Thanks for uploading..

see all

  • Does anyone have a pdf transcript of his lectures?

  • I have been looking for a good course in Compiler Theory for years. This takes me back to learning compiler in college. The professor is very easy to understand and interacts with his class (even the virtual ones). I will be recommending this course!

  • @NoHemlockForMe I have seen proofs done that explicitly show that it is IMPOSSIBLE to determine whether a program will result in an infinite loop. It can be found in the MIT lectures SICP. The problem with detecting conditions that result in exiting each branch is that the number of possible inputs into a program can be virtually infinite. Each sub-branch condition needs to be tested for each potential super-branch condition. Even with minor nesting, the size grows exponentially.

  • He is a knowledgeable professor. His lectutes are tremendously useful. THANK YOU Professor Shai. 

  • his hat is cute

  • Sooooo much better than how my professor is teaching this.

  • it would be great if you upload a set of Complexity Theory lectures by the same professor (if there is any)...

  • @NoHemlockForMe dear lord! this is called the "HALTING PROBLEM" and it can't be solved. it is proved over and over again by computer scientists that halting problem is not solvable. If you have invented such an algorithm, you should really send it to IEEE or ACM, or Stanford, MIT, Berkeley etc... and teach those scientists that they know nothing!!! (sarcasm of course!)

    you wont become a computer scientist just because you've learned how to write a hello world program in Python or Java!!

  • marvelous..jus go through all the lectures..as interesting as gta

  • @jingoria Email them the link ;)
