Hello, my name is Charles Huang. Or is it?

Pronunciation

chARles hUAng (the capitalized parts are stressed)

Think Charles Long (like short and long) but replace "lo" with "Hu"

Grand Challenges

The article I found is about making solar energy economical, one of the grand challenges of Engineering:

Matlab Demos

My favorite demo was the Minesweeper game, because it introduced me to the interactive capabilities of Matlab. Before we would write code to solve problems with existing parameters (with only a few inputs), but the minesweeper game has shown me how such problems can be integrated into a setting that allows the general population to use the interface. Although virtually no math appears on the surface, it is clear that many lines of code were involved in the random bomb generator to produce the animated figure. I admire how both simplicity and complexity coexists in the Matlab environment. It was also fun to know I could now learn how to program one of the classics! I want to learn how to program Pac-man now.
