Welcome to the Computing Wiki of Dr. Scot Anderson. This wiki is here for his classes and for personal projects. Most stuff is open as a normal wiki should be, but if you want to get involved in editing particular projects, let me know. Classes are on the ClassesPage where you will also find class resources. Worker (TA/RA) information is on the TaRa page.

Over the years in grad school and beyond, I've acquired quite a list of ComputerTerms. It is a collection of definitions and explanations written during my own studies. Feel free to peruse this section - which is quite extensive actually. If you find an error feel free to correct me on it.

This wiki includes the ability to add <<latex(\LaTeX)>> inline, such as the symbol for complex numbers <<latex(\usepackage{dsfont} % $$\mathds{C}$$)>>. I use this quite often in the definitions. For more information on writing papers in <<latex(\LaTeX)>> for my classes see WritingTechnicalPapersInLaTeX.

Personal Stuff

In addition to computing I: Play Baritone, Fly (as a private pilot), SCUBA dive, Mountain bike, Rock Climb, Play Racquet Ball, and a host of more mondane things like meddle in electrical wiring and run a backhoe. For flying I created a flight plan Excel template (everyone seems to do this, but no one seems to share it). I also have an expanded check list for my Archer II (4052F):
