a quantum physicist and currently a student at 42 Heilbronn coding school.

42 Heilbronn is a programming school with a peer-learning-based eduacational model, where I've been learning to code by working on different projects, mainly in C and C++.

I have finished the 42 core curriculum and am currently looking for an internship.

My fellow 42 student tjensen42 and I built a raytracing-based 3D renderer in C. Using a path tracing algorithm, we were able to implement fundamental physical and mathematical concepts to generate beautiful images. This conncetion between physics and code was especially interesting to me.

Together with my peers tjensen42 and khirsig, I created a HTTP web server in C++. We used Nginx as a reference, and our server is following the HTTP/1.1 standard. In this project, I learned a lot about the HTTP protocol, but also about the functioning of the internet in general.

To get familliar with the C++ STL and template programming, I recoded the C++ containers vector, map, stack, and set. I also implemented a red-black tree as an underlying data structure for map and set, as well as iterator systems and utilities like std::pair or std::enable_if.

As our first bigger project at 42, tjensen42 and I coded a small bash-like shell in C. Its features include several builtins, redirections, pipes, subshells, variables, and much more.
