Agreed. This was a fantastic class when I took it. The textbook written by Sipser is also extremely good and could stand alone.

Fun fact: I got to have dinner with Sipser once and he told us that he had wagered an ounce of gold back in the 80s or 90s that P v NP would be resolved by the year 2000 (and thus had paid up)



That's amazing, I'd be really curious to know his reasons for leaning toward P vs NP been resolved.
