I liked the Minesweeper demo the best literally because I love playing Minesweeper (even though I'm absolutely horribly slow at it and despite its accessibility as a tool for procrastination). I like the logic (albeit simple) the player must employ in order to win the game. To be perfectly honest, I actually hated the game up until 2 years ago when Allen taught me how to play it. When I saw the demo, I got super excited.

About Me

Hi. My name is Becca Bau. I'm a freshman at Duke. =) My intended major is BME/ECE.

  ~ I'm from Athens, Georgia; my parents are from Taiwan.
  ~ Chocolate rocks!
  ~ I hate being sick.


Phonetic Pronunciation

Name I go by: Bek - a

Family Name: Bow (like the action you execute after a performance/ rhymes with 'Wow')


MATLAB Demo

I personally liked the Minesweeper demo. There's nothing particularly academic as to why I chose it... I liked the Minesweeper demo the best because I love playing the game (even though I'm absolutely horribly slow at it and despite its accessibility as a tool for procrastination). I like the logic (though some might claim it to be simple or not there at all) the player must employ in order to win the game. To be perfectly honest, I actually hated the game up until 2 years ago when Allen taught me how to play it. Plus, when I saw the demo, it totally just made my day.
