Today was Dr. Pheanis’ last day as a professor. We were his very last class. He said he would remember us the most because we were his last class. I think it is very fitting that the CSE 521 class would be his last. We are essentially (in his view – I am not just…

Whoa
I had my very first code review. It was interesting and slightly unnerving. I had all these people who had gone over my code, tell me what was wrong with it. Luckily, nothing too serious! Just minor issues. I learnt some new stuff though. THEN, I found out that my highschool friend is GETTING MARRIED!…
Where is it?
Parag asked me what the deal is with the new web page. There’s no deal. I’ve been putting it off because of CSE 521! I’ll be able to do it soon I hope…
Real Programmers
Real Programmers have their epiphanies at around 3 or 4 am. I have been debugging assembly code for a few hours. I fixed it at about 4:15 am. It is a wonderful feeling. I am a code monkey and proud of it.
I am thinking about it
Ok, so I’ve been thinking about it, and I think I will start on it soon… coding binge, HERE I COME! I am going to redesign the site completely. I need to stop thinking of it as an app… it is NOT. It is a content displaying thingie tool whatever. So it doesn’t need all…

Comments, Radix Sort, Adam and Eve
Ah finally! Someone made use of the Comments! I feel so special! Thanks Ed! Yeah and life sucks. Radix Sort is an amazing algorithm. Too bad my teammate and I failed our first demo because we made the absolutely dumb mistake of not distinguishing between a BYTE and a LONGWORD. Yeah big difference. Anyway, I…

Productive
Today was pretty productive. I helped Greg set up the webserver at IPO. Migrated the old website over to the new machine without any problems. I rule… woohoo…
Mandelbrot Sets
I’ve generated a couple of Mandelbrot sets. f(z) = f(z – 1)2 + c; f(0) = c and c is complex number (x + iy). They’re pretty sweet looking! I used Perl and GD to generate PNG images. The images are rather huge so please be patient. If you have a dialup connection, be prepared…
