Interested Grand Challenge: Nuclear fusion is the 'perfect energy source', Steven Cowley, CNN Labs, updated March 12, 2013, accessed 14 September 2014 (Provide Energy from Fusion)
Interested demo: Game of Life: This game involves some simple, yet uniquely complex rules: 1. A unit dies when there's less than two neighbor units dies from underpopulation; 2. A unit with two or three neighbor units lives for a generation; 3. A unit with more than three neighbor units dies from overpopulation; and 4. A dead unit with exactly three neighbor units becomes a live unit by reproduction In program, however, this requires a series of loops and if statements to make it constantly going on to the next generation while checking the rules for each unit. This is an interesting program because it does not actually require highly technical programming skills but rather a combination of logic and simple commands that amalgate into a complex system.
