How I got Started

I first started playing with HTML when I was in the 6^th grade. I made a web page for a social studies project. Next year (2012) I started on my first programming language - BASIC. I made a console based game for a math project. I soon realized that BASIC had practically no use and lacked some important features, so I decided to learn C++, as I had seen many resources for it on the internet, and it seemed interesting. After making console C++ programs until summer 2013, my uncle, gave me a book on VBScript. I created a number of applications. My last full VBScript application was a (somewhat faulty) triangle area calculator. Wanting to share it with my friends in the summer of 2014, (email said no) I decided to make a website using ASP classic(VBS), but after my idea of running a home server was shotdown, I couldn't find a host that would take it. I converted it into PHP, and it became my website. After a couple of years of evolution, this website has gotten to its current state. I have made it essentially from scratch, without using others' premade templates, I have used HTML, CSS and JavaScript and PHP on the server-side. In my computer class, I had to learn python and I've used Java in Code Quest, in addition to my AP Computer Science class. As the programmer on my local FRC robotics team, (RoboBibb #4941) I had to learn LabView when C++ wouldn't install correctly. There was a gradual transition during the second half of 2015 in which I became less interested in web-development and more interested in C/C++ and low-level development. I can now say that I have more experience/skill in C/C++ than any other language. In addition to numerous projects using Arduinos, I began developing a stack-based scripting language using C/C++. My ultimate goal for this hobby is to program embedded systems for a living in the future. During the 2017 robotics competition, my programming projects grew massively. I worked on computer vision for our robot's autonomous, and lead the development of the teams new website, both of these have pushed my limits and given me more ideas on other projects to test my skills.
