I have recently been thinking about extending a project of mine, Othello Master, to form a new project. The new project will take a different title and occupy a different domain. Chess, Checkers and the like can be considered. If you would like to be a part of this, please send me an E-mail because without somebody’s collaboration, I don’t plan on doing it.
I am highly suspicious about MATLAB Central‘s management of their ranking mechanism. For several months I have noticed that the Instrument Control Team (employed by MathWorks, makers of MATLAB) gets just few isolated downloads (indicating the number of times people download one’s code), and then, within hours, it gains hundreds. I wondered if someone out there modifies their numbers slowly enough for no-one to suspect. Be alert. ‘Inside trading’ might always be around the corner.
Many programs fail where it matters the most. They do not layer levels of options so as to allow new users to cope. This is why I have changed the menu that you see on the right. Shall you need more advanced options, press the ‘Extended Menu’ option at the top. Implementation/installation details have been included. On the left:
A restaurant’s minimal menu!
I have finally gone past the point of 10,000 downloads in MATLAB Central. Also by coincidence, I have gone past 10,000 Google AdSense page impressions since I joined the program in September.
My game/program Othello Master has just been moved to its independent new domain. You can now find it at othellomaster.com.
Yesterday I hit the 9,000 mark for number of downloads at MATLAB Central. What makes it a greater achievement is that I have programmed in MATLAB for only 13 months and started publishing code no earlier than May this year. See my MATLAB page for more details.
