Hi, I'm Donald McCarthy. I work with Electronic Design Automation tools creating design flows, filling in the gaps with novel tools, and generally helping to design and verify integrated circuits. Your phone might have a processor I worked on, or if you have a nice German car, the engine management chips or the braking controllers, and lately the ADAS (Advanced Driver Assistance Systems), might be things I've worked on.
I have used the Python programming language for over
==Rosetta Code Tasks==
Although I do a little cleanup of RC pages, and engage in relevant talk page discussions (Kick-me if I seem impolite),
: It's clearly gone beyond that. Your deletionary vandalism is now metastasising into an open attack on the intention of Rosetta Code (declared on the landing page) to "''aid a person with a grounding in one approach to a problem in learning another.''"
: You seem to regard Rosetta Code as a vehicle for "encouraging" some approaches and "discouraging" others.
: This is gratuitous, self-indulgent, and damaging – certainly to Rosetta Code, and probably to you as well.
: You are obviously well aware of this tendency in your own behaviour.
: Perhaps it would help you and others, both here, and in other parts of your life, to get a little friendly advice and help ? [[User:Hout|Hout]] ([[User talk:Hout|talk]]) 11:32, 31 March 2021 (UTC)
I had a stash of examples written for an un-published, (and un-finished to be truthful), book on Python that might be candidates for tasks.
It turned out that, most of the tasks I have written, I developed with RC in mind, and follow my interests at the time. I maintain a list in my [[User talk:Paddy3118|talk page]] of new pages I have created, and, being vain, like to track their viewings, (but I don't artificially pump their viewing stats; that would be impolite, and pretty pointless).
Line 35 ⟶ 44:
Wow, it certainly teaches you a lot about how easy it is to miss something in the description of a task. I have very regular indication of how easy it is to miss something out when implementing a task from a description, as I watch others completing tasks here, very often someone elses mistakes stops me from blundering into the same thing which may make me look a little better ;-)
