Hello, I'm alex, aspiring programmer and developer of a (now dead) game called pulse. Feel free to email me at alexzhangh [at] gmail [dot] com, or you can always find me idling on IRC at p.ulse.net at
#pulse
. You can send PGP encrypted e-mail using my public key found here. My other interests include learning Chinese and (a little) Japanese.

programming projects

pulse   2011
a rhythm game designed to emulate the playstyle of beatmania, co-developed between matt and me. the distinguishing feature will be online integration, unlike other emulators.

osu-ac   2012
miscellaneous hack for the rhythm game osu developed between matt and me. proof of concept and introduction to memory manipulation

azsh   2012
a mediocre attempt at a 2D shooting game made in XNA, mainly used to test out the version control system mercurial. many thanks to this tutorial for general help and guidance.

az-sirius   4/1/2012
a basic math expression parser using the shunting yard algorithm. thanks to this blog and this stackoverflow question for guidance.

chrome tab limiter   4/26/2012
made to curb my bad habit of having too many tabs open at once; it lets you specify your max tab limit and whether or not to actually enforce it, then if you try to open a tab that exceeds the set limit it will forcibly close it.

base64 converter   5/7/2012
Inspired from this reddit puzzle, I decided to make a basic base64 encoder/decoder in C# that is used from command line but probably should be used as a library. Mainly a good practice of bit fiddling.

sailboat web server   5/24/2012
"A web server even the wind can blow over!" Made on linux for the first time, this is mainly a learning experience for getting used to C++ with boost and developing on linux. It honestly is just a really basic web server, but matt and I hope to add scripting support.

various little scripts  n/a
Various scripts (all python at the moment) I've created for various purposes, including Japanese, chemistry, etc.

chinese translations

waa.ai link shortener (translation)   7/8/2012
Credits to bedabeda for creating this; all I did was translate the site to Traditional Chinese but it was my first attempt ever at translating anything formally.
