I am studying Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science, and Physics in college, so these are my primary academic interests at this time.

You can also check out my website to learn more.

So, what's with the name CyborgTosser? Well, besides the fact that cyborg and tosser are computer types in Scorched Earth (by the way, something I didn't even consider when I came up with the name). The original idea was that when cyborgs got in my way, I would toss them aside. But, perhaps you computer geeks out there will find this Java code sample more entertaining.

public class CyborgTosser implements Tosser<Cyborg> {
  public void toss(Cyborg c) {
    int severity = 1;
    while (c.inTheWay()) {
      c.send(new Whoopass(severity));
      severity *= 2;
    }
  }
}
