What I did during AndroidConf Brasil 2011


Hey, reader! 
Today I was in the AndroidConf Brasil 2011 with some fellows. 
It was a good event. Not the best, nor the worst. A good one.

People who know me, know that I don't like cellphones. Then, since I'm not a proper example of enthusiastic about this topic, I tried to invest my time with an experiment. 

Last days I was trying to minify a javascript file by myself. I thought that would be as easily as count till 3. It turns out that I was wrong. I had to write a compiler in order to make it work well. Thus, I went back to the theory to see how it could help me.

As I was reading about automata and its uses, it turned out to be interesting to have a working example of the theory I was dealing with. And why not during the event? 

First presentation: git init. No wireless network?! That's ok. Thank you git!
There I was, writing a simple Deterministic Finite Automaton
Had a lot of fun doing that. 
Great saturday, =)

If you wanna see the resulting code -> https://github.com/cathoderay/dfa.

Need some rest now.

Till the next post!
