About me

I am a Kenyan first-year student at Duke University and I intend to major in Electrical and Computer Engineering.

Name pronunciation

My first name - Allan - is quite common and most people are comfortable with that. If you really want to make my day by using my second name, Kiplagat, say it like 'KIP (like in skip) -LAH (just as you see it) - GAT (similar to got)". I hope that helps!

Favorite MATLAB demonstration

I liked Inverses of Matrices because the graphical representation of a random matrix, its inverse and resultant identity matrix after multiplication is quite intriguing.
