I used to be a fortran and sometimes C programmer, but these days I write mostly python and a little javascript. I am interested in computational physics and like to write code.

I also used to be an avid gnuplot user and maybe someday I will be again...

I would really like to earn a gold gnuplot badge so upvote my gnuplot answers if you think they're worthwhile ;-)
