I'm planning to post lecture 4 today, but I also thought maybe we could do some brainstorming. How are you doing so far? Finding anything confusing or the pace too fast? Would it be helpful to have some simpler, less MIT-ish problems to warm up with? A weekly chat option to go over things or watch the lectures? Partners to work on the problem sets with?

Fire away with any ideas and suggestions!

The pace is definitely too fast for me. I can't keep up. The lectures are fine, but I don't have time to do all the reading and I'm running smack into not-enough-math-vocabulary issues all the time. I'm German.

I thought this would be something fun to do in my spare time but I'm learning MySQL and PHP for my regular studies already so I don't have enough time to devote to Python.
