On Reddit: "I did this unit last sem. It's more focused on complexity science than teaching coding skills, the coding's really just a tool you'll use to demonstrate that you're understanding the lecture content by building your own models and is actually pretty easy compared to other cits u…"
On Reddit: "If you prefer more coding then choose 4012 if not then pick 4403. 4012 is quite heavy on coding compare to 4403 while 4403 have more theory component where you don’t really need to know coding to answer final and the unit. I hope this help."
