About

My name is James Harkins, and I am a senior studying computer science and going into my final semester at the University of Notre Dame. A few of my interests are playing baseball and website development. The reason I chose to study computer science is because I wanted to choose a career in which I would actually be able to create things, which is why I decided to go into the College of Engineering. I eventually chose computer science as I felt it would allow me the most amount of freedom in my career, as a computer scientist can move into many different types of jobs. I hope to see a different side of computer science in this class. In other classes I have learned about the many mistakes that a programmer can make, but have never really learnt the consequences behind these actions.
