Galton Board simulation: Click to expand

The Galbon Board is probably best known as the game Plinko on the popular TV game show: The Price is Right. The rectangular board that the Plinko board uses is actually based on a triangular board known as the Galton Board. The board was used to show the normal distribution effect that occurs when a random number of pellets are dropped from the top.

Word Search game: Click to expand

This is a text-input version of the well known word search game. I have made this example with 8 animal names that the user must type in the search field to find. Since it is command line, I wrote actual algorithm to ensure scan the board for the user input and so a word is "found" if the user input is found on the board and on the list I create (in an array). Future work would be to write a graphical word search of course.

Android OS Game: Click to expand

I wrote this game for Android. The objective is to watch the blue dots light up and connect them in that order. You do so by drawing a line connecting each dot. You need to avoid red-outlined purple dots as they will erase your path but you can press a purple dot which temporarily erases it to allow your path to draw through it.

Phonebook (offline/online modes): Click to expand

A simple web-based phone book. You can do basic phone book features like look up/add a contact etc. The focus was on my offline mode search to focus on the back-to-basics hash table with approx. constant time insert/search times. Offline mode search works when the database is down by using a local file to perform offline mode searches.
