- Advocate of FreeBASIC, which I consider to be a tragically underrated language
- I prefer compact, elegant code. I try to avoid needless verbosity.
- I'd rather work on useful programs than curiosities; Hunt The Wumpus is a notable exception.
- I've recently become interested in Tiny BASIC, which forces imaginative solutions due to its very limited capabilities.
- Of all the solutions I have contributed, I am proudest of this one.
- I've also recently developed a liking for Fermat, which is powerful for certain applications, has an unusual syntax, and hardly anyone has ever heard of it.
