great video! congrats on another awesome internet famous class!
You have a cool site. I appreciate your work.
In that an algorithm is merely a set of instructions to be applied to complete a task, I’d say that perhaps the majority of classes are graded algorithmically. Am I missing something?
Even if one were to somehow take “the first algorithmically graded class” to mean “the first class to be graded by a computer program automatically based on what is produced by the students” that would also not be unique at all.
But, perhaps that statement is just a troll? Perhaps this entire class is a meta-farce upon itself designed to make Jamie more internet famous?
To that one guy: Way to dig out the basquiat shirt for the video dude.
