Rudyard Merriam
Rud Merriam is a retired software developer, having lived through the spaghetti, structured programming, and object-oriented development paradigms. He's now trying to figure out functional programming.
Rud wrote his first FORTRAN IV in 1968 and his first C++ in 1990 with Borland's Turbo C++. Along the way, he developed computers that measured flow in real pipelines and used satellite communications to access swamps and mountaintops. He's competed with C++ in three NASA Centennial Challenges for robots on Mars and the Moon, winning some prize money along the way.
