I have always liked to program. From my first steps in Basic in the late 80’s to complex C++ projects during my academic studies (physics) and PhD (engineering), creating software that is both powerful and easy to use has seen a constant presence in my time schedule.
| Topic | Knowledge |
|---|---|
| Programming | Java, C/C++, Php, Perl, Pascal, Fortran, Basic |
| Operating systems | Unix/Linux, Dos, Windows |
| Database | SQL scripting, Access |
| Software | Matlab, Sas, R, Maple, Word, Excel, Powerpoint, Latex |
| Internet | Html, Xml, Javascript, Server side scripting, Ajax |
After joining the ranks of the corporate sector, the complexity of C++ was mostly traded for VBA, PHP and various pseudo-languages like R and Python.
Most of the software I write nowadays cannot freely be made available. nevertheless, the following might come in handy:
| Item | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Eendraadschema tekenen | PHP | Tool to draw one-wire diagrams according to Belgian AREI reglementation. |
| TCX-tools | Online | A selection of tools to turn Polar sportwatch data into TCX files. |
| Loan amortisation calculator | Online | Visualise the repayment of your mortgage loan |
| Black & Scholes calculator | Online | Price call and put options using the Black & Scholes model |
| Meteor companion | Windows | Automatic analysis of meteor observations |
