My Interests

Topics that I have experience with and want to learn more about.

D Language

D Language

In the last year I have fallen in love with D, a language designed as a successor to C++. While not widely known, this language is powerful and the syntax is beautiful.
Python 3

Python 3

I have about four years of experience with Python. It is my most excersised langauge, being used in the majority of my projects.
JavaScript

JavaScript

JavaScript is my second-best language, being used as long as Python. While not my favorite language (I consider it a necessary evil), it has proven itself useful.
