I`m an aspiring professional programmer. My programming language of choice is C (in the context of a *nix system; and so I also know BASH quite well). But I also have a working knowledge of Python, JavaScript, and PHP. My most recent creation is Pollux (), a program that finds and removes duplicate files (based on their SHA-256 digests). I like cryptography, too, so I like studying abstract algebra and number theory to try and get a deep understanding of it. It`s one thing to know how to use a library like OpenSSL, but I personally want to know what is going on beneath the hood. I have many other interests, such as astronomy. But the main other interest I have outside of programming is languages. I can speak French and know enough Malaysian to have a short and simple conversation. I also know a very small amount of Russian. ©
