Class was informative. I thought Prof Ware was condescending/tended to make smart remarks even though he encouraged questions. If you didn't ask the question using the "correct" mathematical terminology he ridiculed you or made a dumb joke. I was much more interested in learning the material than I was in hearing his attempt at comedy. Annoying!
