Math Careers Project

[time-killer-games]

I have a math project due next week and it's about math careers. I have to interview someone with a math related career. The career I chose to interview is a software designer. So my fellow AM software designers, would any of you like to be my interview? (I'd preffer an admin/code master/VIP to do the job) Once I choose someone for the interview I'll have to ask them several personal questions about them and their software programming.

Thanks for everything!

I"m not exactly a designer, but a IT contractor that programs in whatever language is needed for the job that I have skills in.

As far as math goes, I did more with math when I worked 10 years with computer numeric controlled machines (CNC). Programming is more to do with logic unless you're working in a specific part of the industry that requires math.

I think someone like ShadowHunter would be far more interesting as he built the Particle Engine plugin. He'd be my first choice.

You're welcome to ask me if you get to the bottom of the barrel!
