Next up is my third program written in Rust. All the prompt said was: Convert temperatures between Fahrenheit and Celsius. This could be simple functions to go back and forth between Celsius and Fahrenheit. But I wanted to try and challenge myself to do handle some user input and use

We're going to walk through another program prompt from the Rust Book: "Print the lyrics to the Christmas carol 'The Twelve Days of Christmas'." I know the topic is a few weeks late, but should hopefully still be helpful! Getting Started Assuming you'

I've started 2018 learning yet another programming language: Rust. I love learning new languages. They expose you to new ideas, paradigms, and (in the case of Rust) even new types of programs you can build. Rust pitches itself as: ...a systems programming language that runs blazingly fast, prevents

Earlier this year, we began the process of using React in our AngularJS app. Luckily, rendering React components within Angular isn’t too hard. We use a component “bridge” based on the approach shared by the Small Improvements team, which is working well. A side-effect of bringing React into the

Last week I had the opportunity to speak at a local meetup here in Portland about my favorite new technology: Elm! Specifically how to use your Elm code in connection with other JavaScript code or libraries. If you don't know what Elm is, or have somehow managed to

cs50 pset 5 was all about data retrieval and memory management, so the challenge was to implement a searchable dictionary that could be used to quickly implement a spell checker on entire books (like the Bible or a Tolstoy novel). Whenever working with data, you're always making tradeoffs

Next up in my CS50 psets was a fun project working with files in C. First up was a challenge to find a hidden clue in a picture. You had to check the RGB values of each pixel in an image and remove the red pixels to reveal the person

Since I spend most of my day building websites, I don't often get the chance to test my algorithm skills and figure out the most efficient sorting or searching methods. I usually reach for the generic one in whatever library I'm using, but as always, CS50

I know it's been awhile, I've been sidetracked with work and fell behind on my classwork, but better late than never! Here are my solutions to the second problem set for CS50: Initials.c This was a simple little program to take in a name as

I've been continuing my way through Harvard's CS50 course, and have begun programming in C! Again, since I've already had quite a bit of experience programming, I've been flying through the coursework, but I've been spending plenty of time in

I've been working through some more online classes recently, thanks to the awesome curriculum from the Open Source Society, and am finally taking a class where I'm learning some C! Already I'm making cool parallels to other languages I work in every day, but
