Programming

= Overview = As part of my University degree, I have to learn Java. Aside from that, I am pretty good in C, and Visual Basic. I also use CCS C, which is an embedded C compiler for PIC MCUs. For my summer internship 2010, I will be working with Java and C++.

I often write small programs to experiment with, so that I can learn how specific parts of the program work. Most of my programs exist only to teach me something and serve as examples.

If I do decide to create a program, I tend to see it though to completion - I like to iron out any bugs - I hate to have a program only half finished.

= Scripts = I have, by demand, started putting scripts I deem will be useful to others on here. Visit the Scripts page or use the Scripts Dropdown from the navigation bar above.

= Webscripts = I have written a few CGI scripts on this server which are useful for various things. These will be added in time.


 * HTTP Header takes a absolute URL and shows in table form the related HTTP headers for the requested URL.


 * Weather Recorder searches Google Weather for weather information at the server's location and saves it/logs it. It is available to use.  I was interested in weather trends, but am currently unable to afford some decent meteorological equipment. (CURRENTLY NOT WORKING)

= Interesting Links = Somewhere on this page, I had to have this. It's a list of the best comments ever seen in source code. It makes me seriously laugh, and If you're a programmer, it'll probably do the same for you - http://stackoverflow.com/questions/184618
