I got a perfect score on my statistics final.

Check out my React App. It's an implementation of the Boggle dice game. boggle-reactjs

I have a couple of technically challenging apps in my repo.

List of projects with sizes by lines:

Title line count
cube 223
stopwatches 227
bookmarks 207
sha-1 94
boggle 80
torhc_cpp 470
torhc_py 220
matrix 150
skyscrapers 150
sudoku-cpp 440

Other: Leetcode

There are no forks here. With the exceptions of sha-1 and torhcc++ where I include someone else's code to SHA-1 hash, everything here is written by me.

https://github.com/AndrewWigginCout/cube A 2x2x2 Rubik's Cube solver. Cube was when I arrived, when I leveled up my programming ability and finally felt that I could figure out how to program anything. I had just finished DS and Algos so my eyes opened on how to intelligently use those principles in my code.

https://github.com/AndrewWigginCout/torhc_cpp This verifies the file checksums of torrent payloads. Tor Hash Check In C++ was me actually putting that newfound confidence to work. That was the first time I "collaborated" with someone else. I put that in quotes because all I did was use somebody else's library. But it was interesting because in C++ you can literally link your code bases together using the compiler. Python is so much simpler with an import statement, but alas, I hadn't learned Python yet.

https://github.com/AndrewWigginCout/stopwatches This is a GUI app, a multi stopwatch. Good for time keeping your shifts. In contrast to how I feel about the previous two, I don't think Stopwatches is anything remarkable. I feel now that Tkinter is a dead end; nobody is gonna pay me to do it. It's not robust I suspect.

https://github.com/AndrewWigginCout/sha-1_passwords Although SHA-1 Passwords is a pretty simple idea, I think it's one of my cooler ideas. It's less code wizardry and more of a practical "life hack" if you will. Plus it's my most documented app, so check it out. The description and explanation is better than my essay here I think.

Lately instead of wasting my time building apps in the wrong language, or the wrong framework, I'm thinking of the bigger picture. I build with the intention of learning the skills that are in demand, and I learn and move on rather than spending a lot of time really figuring the nuances.

I suspect what corporate America is looking for is organization and documentation. I've failed a few interviews and coding challenges, and the only feedback I got back in return was "no". I wish you guys were more helpful, but I suspect that my code needs more comments. Yes? No? Any feedback would be appreciated.
