Some wordy stuff about me |
Hello,
My pseudonyms on the internet, which I have been using consistently for well over a decade, are Ida, Gamall, and the overlong Gamall Wednesday Ida, which, unlike the previous ones, should be unique enough to allow easy search and univocal identification (barring hypothetical impersonators).
In real life, I am a theoretical computer scientist working in the areas of formal languages and automated verification, and an associate professor in a French engineering school. I'm pretty sure I am not notable, and don't have any WP:COI worth mentioning.
I edit mostly on topics related to computer science and (basic) discrete mathematics, and revert vandalism wherever I come across it.

Shopping list (articles to edit)
[edit]
- (teach) Arden's rule could use expansion. There again, French version is more complete.
- (misc) Add the nice proof of Pascal's rule with binomial expansion.
- (teaching) Check vocabulary for code. French: code vs codage; here using en:code for fr:codage; what's the en for fr:code ? "uniquely decodable" still applies to a fr:codage instead of directly to a fr:code, which would be simpler. Need to find refs for usual practices. Not done
- (teaching) Nicer prefix proof at Kraft's inequality: Done. Maybe wrangle McMillan later. Not done
- (misc) Iverson bracket undefined cases? Proper definition for 'strongly 0'? Reworked. Done
- See if Pandoc is good at converting LaTeX to wiki syntax. That would make things easier for me.
Turns out, it doesn't handle macros well. My existing documents depend heavily on them. Alternatives? Simple macros work fine. Done
- BibTeX citations to Wikipedia: follow up on [1], [2]. Done Zotero seems to work fine.
- See if there is really no way to define LaTeX macros across an article; User:Gamall_Wednesday_Ida/sandbox. Seems not, but might ask someone knowledgeable sometime. Not done
