Introduction

Name: Shena Hoffmann

What will you be doing after graduation? Going to graduate school to receive a Master's degree in Computer Science.

Computing interests: Artificial intelligence, information retrieval

Computing strengths: C++, Java

What was your favorite computer science project that you worked on? A Chinese Checkers game with an AI that could be played against. I liked it best because, while it was a pain to program, when it was all done we could sit and play it as a reward.

What was your least favorite? Systems programming for 313, because there was little documentation to help, and it never worked right.

What do you see as the top tech development of the last 5 years? Easily-accessible touch screens, because not only are they fun to play with, but they have so many useful possibilities as to what they could be used for.

Insight into management/coding styles: I don't like to manage, but I will do whatever work I'm assigned and have it done on time. I like to keep my programs nice and organized, with comments and appropriate tabbing.
