I am a software engineer from Texas, and ever since I was introduced to coding as a child, I was enamored. The idea of being able to be in control of what my computer was doing was mind-blowing to me in the mid 90s. I couldn't get enough of it; I would walk to the public library multiple times a week so that I could read reference material about programming and different programming languages. I taught myself BASIC and C++ in middle school this way. Took my first actual class on computer science in high school and I knew this was it for me.

That joy of learning new things about computers and making them do the things one would want them to do, the high of solving a complex problem, and the awe of creating a particularly elegant bit of code are some of the things I want to be available to the masses without cost. That is the idea behind this project -- to be a repository of free solutions to exercises, in a number of programming languages, and with with varying complexity for anyone to learn from. To be somewhere you can come and see best programming practices and best Git practices.

I am asking for funding because, ultimately, I have to do a cost-benefit analysis of how much time I can afford to put into this project, no matter how strongly my feelings are. I would like to put as much time as I can into this process, and sponsorship would mean I could put more time into the project.
