Hi,
I'm Hugh Thompson
About Me
I'm a University student studying Engineering at the University of Canterbury and
I have an insatiable thirst for knowledge of all kinds.
I love problem solving and tinkering in all areas from software development to
electronics and hardware, game design to fixing my car.
"A jack of all trades is a master of none, but oftentimes better than a master of one."
Is a quote I live by. I love nothing more than problem solving, and the deep satisfaction of seeing my hard work pay off into something I have created, whatever the area.
A hill I will die on:
The asterisk symbol when you declare a pointer in C++ should be placed next to the type,
not the variable name. For example, int* ptr; is correct, while
int *ptr; is not.
