The Stability of Stellar Trajectories in a Spiral Galaxy
This is a simulation of a spiral galaxy as approximated by two circular
planes and a central core. The simulation plots the trajectory of a star
(or any other point mass) as it moves in the model galaxy and finds the
amount of chaos in the motion. I was selected as a semifinalist in the
2009 Intel Science Talent

Simple Java Applet for solving wordsearch puzzles
This was my first venture beyond text-based programming, as well as my
first encounter with HTML. The program's purpose is to solve wordsearch
puzzles (which I am notoriously bad at solving). The first screen
involves entering the entire wordsearch and the second screen prompts for
words to find (in any of the eight compass directions).
