I am a 15-year-old highschool student living in the United States. I enjoy gaming (duh), coding stuff (but it can get old after spending a hour or so getting rid of compile errors haha), playing cards (I probably know how to play about every card game you can think of :P), just hanging out with my friends, paintballing/airsofting, riding fourwheelers and/or dirtbikes and/or side-by-sides, boating/tubing, and partying :). In the future I hope to attend a university majoring in computer science where I will (hopefully) achieve a masters. I started robocode in April of 2010 and I'm hooked :p.

[[LemonDrop]], my first robot isn't 100% successful, but it hasn't been terrible either and I'm proud of it nonetheless. It has multi-mode movement. It uses a type of [[Random Movement]] that moves in radians relative to the enemy distance/heading, and if that fails, it uses [[Stop & Go]] movement. It has a [[symbolic pattern matching]] gun based on the gun of [[User:Robar|robar's]] [[BlackWidow]]. It also uses a [[Radar#Narrow_lock|narrow lock radar]]. The latest version, 1.4 has lots of fixes and new features and hopefully it will also perform better.

About Me

I am a 15-year-old highschool student living in the United States. I enjoy gaming (duh), coding stuff (but it can get old after spending a hour or so getting rid of compile errors haha), playing cards (I probably know how to play about every card game you can think of :P), just hanging out with my friends, paintballing/airsofting, riding fourwheelers and/or dirtbikes and/or side-by-sides, boating/tubing, and partying :). In the future I hope to attend a university majoring in computer science where I will (hopefully) achieve a masters. I started robocode in April of 2010 and I'm hooked :p.

Current Projects

  • A few days ago my dad got a new computer at work, and after formatting the hard drive, they allowed him to take it home. I was very excited and my current project is turning it into my server. I bought a 1g stick of ram to replace one of the two 512mb ones, and I bought an 800gb hard drive to replace the 80gb one. I painted it jet black and stenciled EXAUGE on it in metalic gold letters. It looks pretty awesome. Unfortunately when I went to turn it on, it made a loud beeping noise and shut off. When I tried a second time, same thing, so I guess I'll take it apart again and try to figure out what's wrong with it. Anyways I plan on putting Ubuntu 10.04 LTS on it as well as Apache MySQL and PHP. Hopefully I'll get it fixed up soon - when I do I'll keep roborumble running constantly on it :) cheers to faster results!

Other projects...

  • Making more robots
  • Making a "robocode talk" irc channel on freenode (and possibly a website with an online irc chat to access it)

Code Snippets

You can look at a few free and open source code snippets right here at my code snippets page.

My Robots

Future Hopes

  • Complete first robot Done :D his name is LemonDrop :)
  • Make a very good nano
  • Learn wavesurfing
  • Learn more about pattern matching
  • Learn circular targeting
  • Learn minimum risk movement
  • Make a good micro (who knows? maybe LemonDrop will be)
  • Make a good mini
  • Make a good mega
  • Make an important contribution to the RoboCode community
