Here you will find some things that I have made. This might include small programs
that I've written or essays and assigments that I did for varsity.
| Assigments from university |
- An essay on human-computer interaction
which I did in 2nd year.
- Some physics prac reports:
- Some applied maths projects and assigments:
- A project in numerical analysis
on numerical integration in two dimensions.
- Two mini-projects, namely mini-proj 1
and mini-project 2, which I did for
my partial differential equations course on using Maple to solve PDE's.
- The Mandelbrot Set - An assembly program
that displays the Mandelbrot set and then zooms in on a particular point.
There is no interactivity but you can download the source, change
the point which it zooms in on easily and then recompile to customize its
behaviour. Anyway, the great thing is that the compiled COM file is less
than 512 bytes long (!) so you can write it to the boot sector and run it
at start up time. I have made two versions available, a Ms-Dos executable
COM file and a BOOT SECTOR version which doesn't include the code to return
to dos.
Note: The files have a .zip extension so that Netscape downloads them as
binary files. Just remove the .zip extension to run them.
- A TSR for DOS of only 58 bytes(!) which
displays the time in the top right corner. Here is the
source code if you're interested. Another
reduction in size is possible, by letting the colours be random. I can then make
the TSR 3 bytes smaller, which is shown in
this version of only 55 bytes!
I've had to give the files zip extensions because otherwise it won't let me
store them on the server. Just remove the ".zip" to run the com files.
Ah, those used to be good times when I could still afford the luxury of
spending time doing assembly programming.
- Imaginary number to imaginary power can be real
An article about how an imaginary number raised to an imaginary number might in
fact be real. I mailed the guy a comment on the article and he put it up on his page.
That was actually before I did complex analysis so my reply isn't entirely correct since
I leave out all the other roots that occur because of the branching of the Riemann sheets
but nonetheless this is still representative of me interacting with society so I've kept
up the link.
- Mirrors
This is an explanation I wrote for some friends of mine about why mirrors don't change up and
down or left and right but rather change left-handedness to right-handedness and vice versa. They
said my explanation was quite nice so I've put it up here.
