Yes. From simple text “dump” of data, we can do some amazing things. Well, that’s what they’re already doing…the data scientists and other variants. I only present a simple example of the possibilities here π First, you should read my post about XML here. Then, I take that to another level here in this post. […]

Making A Favorites List…
We all have favorites…movies, shopping list, tv shows, clothes, etc. etc. etc. Ok, welcome! Today, I’ll show you how to create a favorites movie list in XML…why XML? Because from this format, I’ll do some amazing things like analytics. First on this post though, I’ll show you how to store the list in a structured […]
Which Day Were You Born?
Hi again, today I’ll show you how you can magically tell anyone what day of the week they were born! No matter how long ago, even if they even didn’t know π The magic is in coding (I’ll use Python here) and its calendar module. The complete source is below along with a challenge at […]
Winning The Lottery! Automatically :)
Howdy! Ok, I’m not guaranteeing you’ll win the lottery every time, or even ever, but I’ll show you here to generate automatic lottery numbers…for Mega Millions, Power Ball, Hit 5, and Lotto. This time, I’m using Python (a favorite among data scientists). Remember, I am NOT a programmer, but I’m a computer scientist. Difference? A […]
Randomization to Patterns!
Hello again, today I want to share with you a sample code (source and explanation) that generates random parameters, creates unique patterns out of them, every second, until the end of time! Sound intriguing? I love doing this kind of stuff. I code for fun, learning, and experimentation. I don’t consider myself a programmer because […]
Games development using Construct
Hello again, today I will touch upon 2 games I created using an easy to use development platform called Construct. These were done using version 2 (today, they are in ver 3).Β Β They were just for my personal learning and fun. It’s mobile and all-platform friendly and there’s nothing to install. Just open the browser and […]
My Disco Lemonade!
This was one of my biggest personal development project that was never published to the world (until now!)…Media Impact. Back in 2001, I abandoned it due to other obligations, but it certainly holds the place of a Disco Lemonade in my portfolio because it has pretty much EVERYTHING and it’s tasty π Multimedia, concurrent audio, […]
Pet Management – A very early Windows 3.1 program
Now, I’ve always loved having fish as long as I remember. Still have fish π Ok, this isn’t really about a fish, but rather a coding exercise (in the 90s) while I was splashing around in Windows coding (pun intended). The idea is simple: You have a character (Goldfish in this example), and you have […]
Recall- One of my earlier Windows 3.1 programs
Hello again! So, here’s another of my older software programs I wrote for fun, education. This one’s a “simple” Windows 3.1 program I wrote back in 1995 while learning Windows coding myself (school taught me C, Pascal, COBOL LOL!!). This is a type of a memory game. You have to match at least 2 tiles […]
Throwback to God in ’95
Hello again! I was going through my floppy disks (what’s that?) in my vault and re-discovered many of my older software programs I wrote for fun, education and some were actually sold worldwide (one native DOS program and several Windows applications complete with installation, help and all). This one’s a relatively tiny program that’s big […]
