It's a very useful course to remember or to study for first time numerical methods and implement them on python. I think it is a little short but all the information is of a very high level and the professor made a really good job with the videos and the forums.

It was the greatest course that I have taken online because it asks you the main ideas through the video, so I only needed to take feel notes on the calculations. I finished it in 9 days and I will definitely recommend to my friends from my former university.

Really good professor, good balance between pure maths/physics and its applications in the computational world! As a 'just graduated' physicist, I feel like it was a nice boost in my knowledge because, besides everything, we always learn something new.

Five stars? Yes!!! Because this is a great course. The instructor is in top of his game. I have learnt and understood things I did not understand since 4 years I started learning them. I suggest the instructor give tutorials on 2D methods as well.

Had a great time learning the concepts of numerical methods and how to apply them using python. This course gave an insight into many real world problems and how their solution can be approached using numerical techniques.

Thank you very much sir.

Such an amazing Instructor, hats of to you sir. It was such a nice experience to do this course, the lecture videos are very lucid and I am really happy to learn a wide variety of numerical methods along with the ability to code it in python.

This was a great introduction to numerical methods! Prof. Heiner Igel did a fantastic job of making the course the right balance between approachable and rigorous. The python labs were insightful and great learning tools. Highly recommended!

One of the best online courses I've ever had. It helped me to learn concepts of numerical analysis in the area of wave propagation , dynamics and seismology , special thanks to Dr.Heiner Igel and Coursera for this state-of-the-art course !

Very clear explanations, and visually striking. Python parts well thought out- both in their content, accompanying videos and notebook implementation. Of all the courses I have taken online, this makes the best use of the medium.

A great course, substantial, rigorous, and highly enjoyable. A well-balanced mix of theory and practice, leading to the spectral element method in 1D. Nice Python implementations, an excellent presenter, highly recommended !!

A highly recommended course to enter in the basics of numerical simulation. Good explanations, clear Python codes and Prof. Igel always ready to answer the questions. Hope to see the next part (discontinuous Galerkin) soon.

Very good course as an introduction into methods used in solving wave equation numerically. As for me, there were too little maths, especially in the last weeks. Probably it's right, because not everyone is good at it.

An impressive and compelling lecture. meaningful introduction to different sort of numerical methods that could help to solve different real problems, it is really notewhorthy that is very dynamic and entertaining.

I really enjoyed this course. Professor Igel has done an great job putting all this material together. All concepts are very well explained . The python notebooks are well documented and completes.the theory.

Thanks!

I really enjoyed this course. Concepts are explained simply and the Jupyter notebooks are a lot of fun to play with. One criticism is the few typos found in the course, but they are quite minor. Thanks!

W​ould have like more "empty" cells in notebooks for trying to establish loop one self and then having a "correct" output to aim for. Maybe followed by a solution cell with a correct implementation.

This is a very useful course that helps to wrap up the knowledge acquired in advanced lectures during the master's program. Professor Igel is a good lecturer who knows how to transmit his knowledge.

Very good Course to get an Overview over Numerical Methods with a lot of examples and additional content! I highly recommend this course as a teaching assistant in fields of numerical methods!

¡Fantástico curso introductorio! Muy bien explicado por parte del profesor, muy buenas libretas de Python y, no menos importante, despierta las ganas de aprender más.

Muy recomendado

An excellent course highly recommended, but be careful, its level is quite advanced, it requires knowledge of python, partial differential equations and advanced numerical methods

I really learned a lot of basic ideas and mathematical knowledge of numerical methods, and realized corresponding algorithms to solve research problems through python.

This course teaches me systematically the all kinds of methods to solve the wave-equation of the derivative form. And I want to know the all answers of the tests.

Excellent course for people wishing to learn about different numerical approaches for wave propagation. Python Notebooks really add to the learning experience.

This course is a great introduction to numerical methods.

I hope that Dr. Igel will provide more courses on writing effective code for numerical methods.
