Week 0: Welcome!

Hello, and welcome to my blog!
This will be a short introduction to what you may find here. If you would like some more in depth coverage of my project, click the link above (or here) to see my project's proposal.

In the summer before tenth grade, I decided to take the AP Computer science elective the following year, to give myself an introduction to coding. I found that this soon became one of my favorite courses, even though it seemed like more of a beloved extracurricular activity than a class. Since then, I have had a vested interest in code and looked to further my knowledge of the subject.

BASIS has given seniors the opportunity to participate in a research project during our third trimester, and I have decided to use this time to conduct research on my favorite topic. I will be researching the effectiveness of different types of testing on code, and the situations in which each type is more effective. I am pleased to be able to have this experience with the company Fluidic Energy near 90th street and the 101, where I will be working with my adviser Carl Smith. Computer science is a growing field, both of study and of usefulness, and this research should serve to increase the efficiency of those who wish to test their code by decreasing the time necessary for that task. Again, if you would like more details, my proposal is linked above.

Thanks for visiting my blog, and I hope you come back in the future!
