About Me
Experience & Background
I started my programming path in the years of Myspace and hacking code snippets.
In High School I worked with Pascal in Delphi 7. Assignments, variables, loops, objects.
Years later I moved on to Python and then to JavaScript.
Goals & Current Projects
My main goal is continuing to develop my skills all around so I can build fun projects.
I am looking for a career and a professional work to hone and direct my skills.
Game development, website building, and data analytics are my main focuses.
Eventually A.I. & neural networks. Along with other areas such as home automation.
A long term programming goal is to better understand low level programming languages such as C and Java.
I understand the concept of pointers, but the & $ syntax stills confuses me. Garbage collection is something I want to delve into as well.

What I've Learned
Steelers Screensaver
Manipulating source code
Tic Tac Toe
Python version vs. JavaScript version
Terminal vs. Gui
Checkers
So far I have made a Board object with multiple canvases setup in an 8 x 8 grid.
I also made a Piece object, which holds the row, col, color, isKing attributes.
However, I am having trouble accessing the row/col of each Piece that I have
stored in the game = new Board() Board.pieces = []
Eventually the challenge will be making the board designed more like my Tic-Tac-Toe game
where each cell has an onClick() function so a Piece can be selected (highlight in yellow)
and also show available moves (in yellow). Cells should only be selectable is a valid move
is available and the Piece is owned by the current player.

Notes
Need to create a photo/picture/frame object that stores a frame, a picture, a title, and an optional description.Then iterate through a list/array and arrange the pictures in a grid. 2/3 sections: photos, videos, music
