== who i am ==
 
Hi. I'm DanBron. I never log in, but I've edited from several IPs. The ones I can remember right now are:
 
Line 8 ⟶ 10:
 
I'm also known as [[wp:User:DanBron|DanBron on Wikipedia]] and [http://www.jsoftware.com/jwiki/DanBron DanBron on the J wiki].
 
== why i'm here ==
 
As you can probably tell from my edits, I'm a fan of [[J]]. You can often find me on the [http://www.jsoftware.com/forums.htm J Forums]; I post from <b>j</b> AT <b>bron</b> DOT <b>us</b> (and that's the best way to contact me, too).
 
== what i've done ==
 
Tasks I can remember creating (i.e. the ones I created around the time I wrote the sentence you're reading right now):
 
* [[SEDOL]]. <small>(seeSee also [[wp:SEDOL#In_J|the J example on Wikipedia]])</small>.
* [[Zig Zag]]. <small>(ifIf you're reading the J examples, and think they look like line noise, skim through [[Talk:Zig Zag#reading_the_J_examples|my exposition on the ZigZag algorithm]]. Several of other [non-J] solutions on that page were derived from the explanation).</small>
* [[Sierpinski_triangle|Sierpinski's triangle]] and [[Sierpinski_carpet|carpet]].
 
Other tasks or solutions I've liked:
 
* [[Spiral|The Spiral task]] and its [[Spiral#J|J solution]]. To see why, you could read [[Talk:Spiral#J|my exposition piece]]. In fact, after I wrote up Zig-Zag, I was considering adding a Spiral task myself.
 
== what i'll do ==
 
My personal todo list:
 
* Add J solution to [[Monty_Hall_simulation]]. Perhaps base it on [http://www.jsoftware.com/jwiki/Essays/The_Monty_Hall_Problem the corresponding Essay on the J wiki].
* On the topic of simulations, maybe write up a new task based on [http://www.jsoftware.com/pipermail/general/2005-August/024064.html this thread] in the J forums
* Figure out if I can add interwikis to the on the [http://www.jsoftware.com/jwiki/ J Wiki].
* Figure out how to add syntax highlighting for J.
 
== what I need ==
 
IfIn re: [[#what i'll do|my todo list]], if anyone knows the best way to add syntax highlighting support for J, either here or on Wikipedia (Wikimedia, Wiki Commons, etc), please let me know <sup>[http://www.rosettacode.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Dirkt&oldid=16663 1] </sup><sup>[http://www.mediawiki.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:HappyDog&oldid=204030#GeSHi_.26_Wikipedia 2]</sup>.
