I took the equivalent of 61C when I was an undergrad at Berkeley (it was called 60B then, and people can probably figure out something about how old I am from that), and this was a darned good class, from which I learned a lot. I was lucky to take it from Patterson, but there are many other good teachers on the CS faculty. I actually know the instructor who taught 61C on the webcast...we were in grad school at the same time. I never saw him teach a course before, but he's a heck of a good guy. Another excellent CS class at Cal is 61A (used to be 60A when I took it), which is also available in the webcast series. Most CS and EECS majors took it as their first CS class, and it was a real eye-opener for those who were used to working only in "traditional" programming languages like C, etc. Watching the webcast is kind of a trip because I took it from the same professor in the same lecture hall. Go Bears!
