Information
I went to college for 1 year, and during my 1st semester I begged them to let me skip the intro programming courses since the crappy school *cough*Rose Hulman*cough* with its incredibly underdeveloped CS department didn’t allow testing out of courses. They let me jump into Intro to Computer Science 3, which was like, programming concepts or something. Long story short, it was very boring.
Content
This first part is mostly here for reference. All I have been able to find so far is 3 Java (gross!) classes. I will list and add any other projects I find down the road that I saved from classes.
  • DisplayableBinaryTree
  • SortedWordLists
  • ThreadedBinarySearchTree

I don’t plan on sorting through any of these, and quite a bit of these classes/code I probably didn’t do myself, but a tiny bit of my code is in there somewhere I’m sure...

I also took a “Computer Security” class, with the only competent CS professor at the college, though it too was quite a waste of time. The one program I still have for that is a “virus” we were to write in a group, which we went a little over board with, since we were bored. I’ll put up its code too if I can find it, as it isn’t really anything special. What it did, IIRC, was:
  • Exploit the fact that Outlook/Outlook Express liked running JS scripts unchecked, in some circumstances
  • Saved and ran an executable embedded in the script in hex encoding
  • The executable:
    • Gained root access to the machine and injected itself into the Window’s startup run list
    • Filled up the users harddrive in the Windows’s System32 directory with random files containing random data. The files’ names and timestamps were created/modified using an algorithm that spanned and looked similar to all the other files in the directory. The files data was tagged with a hidden algorithm so we could get rid of them with another script.
    • Locked the user out of their machine on windows startup by locking the keyboard and mouse (I knew we could have locked out CTRL+ALT+DEL too, even though the professor incorrectly told us that it was not possible, but I didn’t feel it was necessary to waste the time.)
    • Played the original Hamster Dance theme music on loop after maxing out the system volume
    • It probably did more... but I would need to find it to confirm
Concepts
Java, simple programming structural concepts
Updates
More Project Thumbnail Updates @ 2008-09-28 15:48:04

The following projects have had thumbnails added to them: College Crap, Freedrive URL cracker, Highschool C++ Class, HTTP Zip, Small, Other Web Scripts.

The Eyes project thumbnail has been updated to have a transparent background to better represent it.
