==Me==
I am Mike Neurohr,
I am originally from Pennsylvania. I had a [[wp:Cooperative education|co-op]] job at [http://www.spectracomcorp.com/ Spectracom] from December 2007 to March 2008 in Rochester, NY. My previous job was as a TA for a [http://www.cs.rit.edu/~vcss231 Java class at RIT] (which I usually
I'd like to teach programming, but I'd like to not go to grad school. I probably should have majored in CS, but I didn't realize this until it was too late to go back (so I got a minor instead).
I end up doing a lot of structural editing on RC. I would like to see this site looking good and working properly. People are coming here to get programming help. The languages they're looking at are hard enough to use without a difficult website on top of it, so we should be as organized and logical as possible. My 2500th edit was putting [[Percentage of difference between 2 images]] in the [[:Category:Image processing|image processing category]]. I also help out with [http://blog.rosettacode.org/ the blog] doing [http://blog.rosettacode.org/?cat=4 weekly updates]. Add a lot of examples and you can have your username mentioned in a blog entry to increase your internet rep.▼

I currently live with [[User:Qrush|Qrush]] and [[User:Slawmaster|Slawmaster]] in what Slawmaster calls "the RC power-apartment." They have been inactive for a while, but I can usually get them to contribute a Lisp (Slawmaster) or Ruby (Qrush) example if a cool task arises.{{Rcpower}}▼

==Coding Choices==
Line 35 ⟶ 37:
[[:Category:Sorting Algorithms|Sorting algorithm]]: [[Bubble Sort]] for arrays, [[Merge sort]] for other [[collections]], though really it's a question of dataset size
Editor: [http://www.netbeans.org NetBeans] for projects ([[Eclipse]]
Braces for one-line [[Conditional Structures|conditionals]] and [[:Category:Iteration|loops]]: Not usually, but yes for a complex project, and the open brace is always on the same line as the conditional or loop

==OSs==
I have been a [[Windows]]/[[Microsoft]] user for the longest time. I used DOS (playing Commander Keen and Duke Nukem) way back before I knew how to check versions and all. I used Windows 95, 98SE, 2000, XP, and

==My perception of RC==
[[Category:What Rosetta Code Is|Mwn3d]](Some of these may overlap)
'''How I've used it'''
*How the heck do I do this again?
*What's an algorithm I can use to solve that problem?
*This code is pretty similar or a small part of something I want to do. Lemme just get that...
*This problem seems pretty simple. I bet someone on the Internet has done something about it--oop...yep...RC FTW.
*This Wikipedia article and even the pseudocode on it make absolutely no sense to me. Oh here we go!
*What was that incredibly trivial fact I learned years ago for one test and don't remember anymore?
*People need a nicer explanation of this programming topic (e.g. [[Recursion]]).
'''How I've seen it used'''
*I have a new job coding in X but I learned Y in college. Help!
*Look at my sweet new language! (which may or may not be better than yours)
*This program is kind of fun. How many languages can program it?
*Hey I still know this incredibly old/under-used language. Let me throw some examples up here.
*This fringe detail that only has occasional and minimal impact on the operation of this program is worded slightly wrong (see: [[User:Mwn3d/Word mincing|word mincing]]).
*English is not my/your first language so I/you don't communicate in a way that makes sense to you/me (this can manifest itself as long, confused arguments sometimes related to [[User:Mwn3d/Word mincing|word mincing]] where people get angry and someone just gives up rather than people coming to the right conclusion).
'''How I want it to be used'''
(No promises that I even use it these ways, see also: [[User:Mwn3d/Personal policies|personal policies]])
*Here's a practical way to do this in language X that definitely works with a clear explanation.
*Here is a nice explanation of this common problem/algorithm/programming topic.
*You should start by looking at these examples when trying to learn language X.
*This demonstrates a difference between language X and Y.
*I don't know too much about programming. Maybe this site can help.
'''How I suspect some non-contributors may be using it'''
*This task is exactly like/very similar to my recent homework assignment. Sweet! Now I don't have to really do the assignment.
*I thought this problem/algorithm would have a simpler explanation here. I'm lost in notation and vocabulary. I'll look somewhere else.
*This website has more language X/my language users/examples so it's better than language Y/your language. I win!
==Personal Todo List==
*Add named lang and reason params to ENA templates
*<nowiki>#foreach</nowiki> + [[Template:Language]] = awesome -- on hold
*Translate RCRPG/Perl to Java (and BASIC if possible).
*[[Forth]] interpreter task with a limited set of commands (thinking about using [http://iweb.dl.sourceforge.net/project/j2eeforth/Documentation/J2EE%20Forth%20Language%20Reference.pdf page 5 here] for some)
