I have a maths degree and now work in software (specifically intelligent document analysis) using javascript. I used to work embedded systems in C and WPF projects in C#. I've written quite a lot in Matlab and R in a Mathematical context and have dabbled with Java and Android development. Consequently I joined for the stack overflow site, but I've found history a lot of fun. I've also recently spent time with out of date GSM Standards.
