Mar 2, 1999: It seems that the engineers at Intel have become a bit paramoid - they think that "the user is the enemy", and they are adding a tracking mechanism to their PIII CPU's. I guess I will not be getting one of those ;) Click here to read it.Feb 28, 1999: Added a collection of Commodore 64 related documents to the website. Lot's of neat info! Click here to view it.
Feb 24, 1999: Wow! It's been a while, and here is something nifty. A Fibonacci calculator in Javascript - Give it a try! It is normal for it to seem slow - but remember it is a recursive function. It fails above 30 because the resulting number is too large. Tommorow I might do Ackermann's function. Click here to view it.

Jan 31, 1999: I Purchased a used computer yesterday: A C128. I only paid $10.00 for it from Value Village (with a 90 day warranty), it came with only the CPU and power supply. It's about the best 8-bit computer I have ever used.
Jan 20, 1999: It's been a long time since an update. The next tutorial has taken a long time to prepare, so it will not be up for at least another week: It's a full-blown file viewer written in C++ for the Amiga operating system. It's all here: File handling, Exec Lists, Linked Lists, Pointers, Clipping, and other major concepts. I am sure you will be impressed. Click here to view a screen capture.

Dec 10, 1998: I wrote my final exam for Data Structures I, and it was not as hard as I though it would be. It was long though (and somewhat tough to get one of the questions below O(n lg n) time).
