         The advice I would give to a student who is beginning this course will be that write down the steps to see if every step makes sense. Sometimes functions can be long so its really important to organize it well and make sure you have met all the conditions. I also recommend doing all the questions that are posted on the website for tutorials because it will help to make sure if you are understanding the material as well as it helps to do better on the quizzes. 


Also, I would recommend going to office hours because its hard to move on if you don’t understand something. I felt the first week for this course very easy and then it got kind of complicated when the definitions for the functions got more complex. I think making sure you get the material right after the lecture would be very helpful to keep up with the materials introduced. 

       For me, going to office hour for working on my project really helped because I was stuck in one definition for long time and I could not move on.  I would really recommend start working on the project as early as possible so there is time to get help in office hour. 


        As for studying for exams, I recommend doing the past exams because that’s how to know what is expected to be asked on the exams. The exams are not that difficult if you understand what the function does and be able to create check-expects and definitions.
