I did feel like it has been a waste of time. He just mixed it in with a bunch of textbook problems. It wasn't a particularly elegant or insightful, just something technical he wanted the answer to. I don't think anyone in the class got it right, as we didn't really have the tools to make progress on it. It was a first year grad class. It was one of the only times I had a really bad professor in grad school. He was visiting for six months, and you could really tell he didn't want to be teaching. He used an out of print book (Graph Theory With Applications by Bondy and Murty), which meant I had to go to the library to even read it. He lectured at a level that was beyond us, and he literally wouldn't tell us where his office was, so he wouldn't have to answer questions. Maybe with a different teacher I would have been less annoyed about the research problem.
