+Ella Shar The 6.034 course has 6.01 and 18.02 for prerequisites. You must be able to program in Python, and understand search algorithms (depth-first, breadth-first, uniform-cost, A*) and basic probability and state estimation (covered in 6.01). You will also need to know what the chain rule is and partial derivatives and dot products (covered in 18.02).

I feel smart when I laugh with them

It is a sad moment watching him explaining as I learned that this benovlent professor has passed away 19 July 2019. π

38:50 He literally steps aside while saying "Let me step aside to make a remark" and goes on to say something off topic. Brilliant. I am going to try to do that as much as I can.

This was absolutely gorgeous, I was immature at the time I took my Machine learning course at my university and barely scraped by with a 6 by answering all the mathmatical questions correctly (of which I guessed 3) So it is really nice to have the chance to take a course like this again and at Ivy league level for free, I just wanted to say bless you.

One of the best lecture I have attended, pretty happy to came across this. Thank you MIT and Mr.Winston to put it on internet, made it available for public. Attending regular courses are out of bound for me, but these kinds of sources helped me a lot. Please keep doing the good work. Thanks you so much !!

Patrick Winston was the professor that got me hooked with MIT, it's sad to comprehend that such a talent is no way. At the same time, it is somewhat comforting that his videos will be avaiable forever, reflecting his thoughts, and the way of his teaching...

Iβm listening again to these wonderful lectures in 2023. When I first listened to them 8 years ago, as a nurse studying Health Informatics, I knew that this clever man would not live a long life. His body mass index and his laboured breathing told me that. People say body image doesnβt matter and, jn the entertainment industry, we frequently celebrate obesity. But believe me please, it does matter when your skeletal frame and body organs age. 76 was way too soon for Professor Winston to leave us ππ

What a huge difference a good teacher makes! I wish I had teachers like this when I was in school.

This lecture is Absolutely Incredible, owes so much to Patrick's teaching skills.

This man is at level 9999 in teaching. One of the best teacher I ever listen.
