[edit] About

Places This user lives in or hails from Philadelphia. This user comes from Russia.

Birth This user is a Leo. This user was born on the year of the Sheep. 羊

My Formal given name is Попов, Андрей Анатолиевич (Andrei Anatoliyevich Popov) and I hail from the city of Черноголовка, Российская Федерация (Chernogolovka, Russian Federation). I was named after Сахаров, Андрей Дмитриевич (Andrei Sakharov), one of the inventors of the Hydrogen Bomb. I currently reside in the city of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, United States of America.

I was born in the year of the metal sheep, under the sign of Leo, on the 8th of August, in the year 1991. I was born during a very chaotic time for the Soviet Union. It was about to fall apart. When my mother was in labour in the city of Серпухов (Serpukhov), tanks were riding into Moscow.

[edit] Interests

I have a myriad (but not a plethora) ever-changing interests that I sometimes think that even if I had an infinite amount of time, I would never be able to bore myself of all of them.

Search user languages

Writing Systems Cyrl-N я This user has a native-like understanding of the Cyrillic alphabet. Hrkt-1 あ This user has a basic understanding of the Kana script.

I would like to be able to speak several other languages, including German, Esperanto, Quenya (or whatever the complete version of the language will be named), Ukranian (which I half-understand, but still get confused by), and Klingon.

Russian - I consider myself a native speaker of the Russian language, especially when I consider the fact that I have been speaking it from the time I was born.

Ukranian - Ukranian is the the closest language to Russian that is still in wide use (There are many minor languages that are very close to Russian but are not well known).

English - I also consider myself a near-native speaker of English, especially when I consider the fact that I have been speaking it from the time I was 8 years of age. I also consider myself well versed in proper English. German I am trying to learn the German language as of the 10th of February of the year 2008.

French 'Problem' - I should also inform whomever reads this that while I am studying French at my school, Julia R. Masterman School, I detest the language.

Klingon - Klingon is the official language of the Klingon people, and is a very important part of my life as I am a Klingon Warrior! (Sarcasm is also one of my interests). But I also have a non-sarcastic interest in the language

Esperanto - Esperanto will become the international language of the world someday. You will see.

Quenya - The elvish language is so beautiful .

[edit] Computers and Computer Science

[edit] Programming

Programming prog-2 This user is an intermediate programmer. C-2 This user is an intermediate C user. py This user can program in Python. Perl-3 This user is an advanced Perl programmer. js This user can program in JavaScript.

I am an amateur, self-taught, soon to be professional, programmer. I, like so many other programmers my age, am self taught.

Perl - Many people consider perl to be a "write-only" language. They are correct. But what many of these people fail to realise is that perl is a very feature-rich scripting language which has capabilities beyond standard scripting. It has the best support, out of any other language, for regular expressions.

Python - What can I say. Python is by far the easiest modern language that I know, but, just like perl, has its weird quirks.

TI-83 BASIC - Oh yes, I will go there. I claim that I have a very rich background in TI-83 BASIC. I spent most of my 7th, 8th, 9th, and 10th grade classes practicing my elite skills. I am good enough that I write programs on tests to solve problems that I forget how to solve by hand. This is ironically (to a certain BASIC degree at least) the language that got me interested in computer science.

C - It is C. Nothing to see here, please move along.

Javascript - I would not be on the internet if I did not know how to use this.
