About Me

I'm a 15 year-old programmer and amateur photographer from Surrey, who mainly works in HTML, JavaScript, CSS, Python and VB (only when I have to!). I aim to start developing Android apps; am yet to venture into the worlds of Java, C and C#.

I am always on the lookout for new projects, so please leave any ideas here. I am open to exploration of new languages, and can't wait to hear your suggestions! Really, I mean it: I'm a bit stuck for ideas at the moment.

I currently run a Lenovo ideacentre 510-15IKL with an Intel Core i7-7700 at 3.60GHz, 16GB of RAM, an Nvidia GTX 1050, a 500 GB SSD and a 2 TB HDD, runnning 64 bit Windows 10 Home. I also have a Lenovo G50-80 with an Intel Core i3-4005U running at 1.70GHz and 8GB of RAM, booting Ubuntu MATE 18.10.

Implementing Material Design for the Web on My New Demo Website

My most recent project has been creating a new Material Design 2.0 demo website, used for hosting any small coding projects I may have (e.g. for Computer Science lessons). The idea came about last Thursday, after I was given a Computer Science assignment to replicate the Luhn Algorithm. I was already keen to experiment with Material Design 2.0 (what with it being released only a few months ago), and I enjoy developing websites - so a natural step was to create a Material Design web app. Firstly, you may be wondering what on earth is the Luhn Algorithm? It is a checksum algorithm used for credit cards and the like - it checks that the card number entered is valid, using a rather simple process: it reverses the digits, then each digit in an odd indexed position (based on zero-indexing) is doubled. If this comes to more than 9 (i.e. more than one digit), it subtracts 9 (the same as adding the digits). Finally, if the sum of all of the digits (replacing those at odd-indexed positions wit…

CSS/JS Animations - Black Thunder FLL Website

I haven't posted for a few days, and in that time I have begun reading 'The Territory', by Sarah Govett, and finished Black Thunder FLL's website! I have greatly increased the efficiency of the JS; have been working mainly on this file (see the file history by clicking the History button, or going here).
Firstly, from what I have read, 'The Territory' is a very good book: I love fantasy.
Secondly, I have made Black Thunder FLL's home page a lot more efficient (and hopefully bug-free). I used to use setTimeout() statements to remove the underscore from the end of the title and main text. This was very inefficient, for multiple reasons:
Sometimes the typewriting code was delayed, so the underscore was never removed;CPU usage was slightly higher, as the computer was running a timer;Instead of utilising the already running function, I ran another;The value of the final text was hard-coded, so there were two variables with the same contents - one in the form of …
