So I enrolled myself in a couple Java classes this semester and I am going to be using this site as a testing ground for some of the projects I plan to work on.

One thing I have planned is an initiative tracker that I would like to make available as both an applet and application.

Another project that I have in mind, and that is perhaps a little ambitous and beyond the scope of an intro Java class, is an online scheduling program where gaming groups can create an account, login and mark times they are free to play to make scheduling less of a phone tag hassle.

But before I start getting into the above projects, I figure I better start small. Below you will find a psuedo-random "dice roller" applet, enjoy!

This is the dice roller applet I wrote, it generates a psuedo random number on a uniform distribution between 1 and the number following the "d".

As a Physicist/Mathematician I'm inclined to throw in some "neat tricks" to perhaps make the psuedo-random number a little more "random" but for now I am satisfied with my first applet.
