My Homepage

I am a student in the 1997 University of Utah High School Computing Institute. Next year I will be a senior at the best high school in the state (Cyprus High School).

The sports I love to play include soccer, ultimate frisbee, and basketball.

I love to listen to classical music and play it on the piano. Some of my favorite compositions are (by Beethoven) Fur Elise, Adagio (Moonlight Sonata), and (by Bach) Brandenburg Concerto No. 4.

My prime interest, though, is programming! I code in anything available, which, at various times, is assembly, (Q)BASIC, Pascal, C/C++, Java, and (recently) Lisp. I'm currently working on several projects. I'm fed up (understatement!) with DOS and it's menus (i.e. Windows 1.0, 2.0, 3.x, Win95, Win NT, etc., etc. etc.), so I've begun work on my own operating system. It will not have a command line interperator because support for this would be either impossible or extremely clumsy and quarky, because of some of the ideas I'm implementing (PURELY OBJECT-ORIENTED! The closest till now has been OS/2, and event that is still based on procedural, command-driven applications). Also, I'm making an xbattle clone for the i386 AT architecture, and I'm using VESA graphics to get the necessary playing field size. However, it's real-mode, and it's slow (for now ;).

HSCI97, Check this!

I finally finished the bracket problem. I saved it as a gif so you can view it. You can also view the source code to see how to do it.

Here's my final model project. Sorry, not releasing THIS source code.

Here are some of my favorite links. Enjoy!

• The University of Utah Department of Computer Science homepage. These guys have some awesome projects going on!
• If you interested in designing games, look at Moonbase Game Programming Reources. This site is loaded with hundreds of links with usefull descriptions.
• In explanation of a recent lecture on the fourth dimension, the professor brougth up current theories that our universe actually exists in ten dimensions. I've written a short paper to explain this theory.

A few extra links for fun!
