About Me
Current student planning on majoring in Biomedical Engineering and considering adding either Neuroscience or Pre-Med. Still wondering if I will survive Freshman year. Seems all the more unlikely with each assignment from organic chemistry.
Why the Username
Seven reasons, in no concrete order
- Excellent general - I enjoy military history
- That mustache. Seriously, look at it
- One of the few good Polish kings of the 17th century (I'm Polish)
- Something about commanding cavalry with wings. Because that's cool - in my world at least
- Battle of Vienna, 1683
- Venimus, Vidimus, Deus vicit. Anything harking back to Caesar gets my seal of approval
- It's also my go-to username

MatLab Demonstration
My favorite MatLab demonstration would have to be the contour plot of the penny. From a visual standpoint, it is the easiest one to understand, and it also does not contain any complicated set of commands. Furthermore, it is interesting to see how something as seemingly simple as a penny can be broken down and analyzed by a mathematical program.
