I’m continuing my learning of electronics, and I seem to be much better at it than the first time around. It is satisfying when a circuit works first time.

Feel free to try out this Automatic Number Plate Recognition demo… upload a photograph with a car’s licence plate in the frame and it’ll try and read it… it takes some time to process so be patient. It isn’t very reliable:

Just got a nice email in repsonse to some code I submitted publically:
“jon -
just a quick ‘thank you’ for the code you posted re: parsing csv files.
i have a gi-normous excel csv file with individual records spanning multiple lines because of multi-paragraph ‘notes’
fields in each record.
your solution of counting the fields and then parsing subsequent data based on the number of columns is so common sensical it makes me embarrassed that i didn’t think of it.
thanks again,
bruce.”
