 A semester long final project for my senior level Computer Compilers class. This project was a great exhibit of all the skills learned throughout my college career.
 The project required us to make a program for every phase of a computer compiler with that being, a lexical analyzer (Scanner), syntax analyzer, optimization, and code generation. With the end goal of creating our own unique coding language and generate machine code to run in the terminal.
 The project utilized table driven problem solving technique in order to make the code adaptive to changes and modulate the grammar rules separate from the code base. My compiler had to handle strings and integers, as well as include all IF, FOR, and WHILE statements, be able to print and input from the terminal, and handle all compare operators and mathematical operators.

 A final project for my Information System Design class. The project required me to create a book library lookup program utilizing any software we want. I chose Python, with Tkinter, to create an UI for displaying the data.
 The program had to be able to take in book information data, such as title, author, book ID, and store that data into a B-tree style file structure that we had learned in class. This structure allowed fast look up times and easily scalable system to store data.
 The program also had have all CRUD functions and to manager your own AVAIL list. This obviously not so necessary in some programming languages like JAVA, but for educational purpose help us understand data management.
 This project was a favorite of mine. Having to learn a new programming language Python and use it in making a localized application was a great challenge for me.
