Back again for my penultimate year course ratings! Without further ado, here are some of my thoughts on the courses I'm wrapping up right now (will update if anything significant changes after final exams). I'm only rating my Winter courses, as I was studying abroad in the Fall - check out these posts if you're interested in those experiences. CPSC 413 - Design and Analysis of Algorithms I (Required) This course is super interesting and definitely important for computer science. You learn to think algorithmically, and it will help a lot with coding interviews in the future. There is actually barely any coding in this course because you focus on different types of algorithms, thinking on paper, and properly expressing your algorithms and why they work. Some of the questions and exams in this course are really difficult, but on the other hand, the grading is very lenient if your thinking is on the right track. I would rate this course an 8/10 , it's definitely worth put...
In my opinion, Bri'ish food gets a bad rap and is actually pretty delicious, but how does the overall restaurant experience compare between Canada and in England?

I’ve had the pleasure of trying some rare (and incredible) cuisines in both, like Yemeni food in Calgary and Sri Lankan food in Oxford.

Pricing Surprisingly (at least to me), eating out in England is generally more expensive than in Canada after converting the currency. Many Canadian buffets are top-tier value, such as Sizzling Grill in Calgary...
