    Agreed - it's one of the most enjoyable Coursera courses I've taken. Part Two starts February 16th. [1]

    To expand a bit, what I liked about the course was the textbook, algorithms and their practical application in a non-CS field with a good set of programming problems that are automatically assessed.
