Bio:I am a c/c++/(loosely) java programmer. I first started programming when i was in high school at 16. I have a passion for computer science, graphics, and music.

I spend an insane amount of time programming. I never count how many lines of code i write because its so bad :P. With two years past it seems at least to myself that I am slowly becoming a jack of trades in the computer field however its impossible to learn (professionally) everything within a profession, so I enrolled at a university. Currently I am pursuing a bachelors of computer science at a university. I enjoy the theory of computer science but even more the result.

The fundamental thing I've learned (my epiphany) is that is not the act of doing its the result. So before you newbies start coding before you have any idea of how you are really going to accomplish a goal, like myself a long time ago, realize that you are wasting your time without a design.

That being said I have touched on a lot of topics in the field of computing within the span of two years. Ive done a bit of html,css,and python and a whole lot of c and c++ and a decent amount of java. I am by no means an expert in any area because it is impossible to know every nuance of every language, however, I have the experience and persistance that the field of software development teaches one in those lonely (antisocial) hours in the dark.

We computer scientists are the mad scientists who drive innovation and change the way and quality of living that the world is rapidly noticing.

Aside from my rant, If you are interested in developing a graphics engine (in c and c++) and/or networking engine pm me and ill email you. I have aquired a broad set of skills and a persistant mentality from diligently working alone and interested in working with a group to finish a major project.
