Introducing Myself


Hey, my name is José Antonio Malo de la Peña. I think must of you know me as Yuso. I'm at 8th semester of   Computer Science major at Tecnológico de Monterrey Campus Estado de México.

I'm not sure what am I expecting from this course, but I want to improve my programming skills while learning a new programming language, in this case, C#. Also, I would like to understand how a compiler works.
I think this course is going to be a very interesting challenge.

My principal hobbies are:

Music. I love listening to music. Specially Avenged Sevenfold, The Beatles, Simple Plan, Joan Sebastian, Dvicio and Morat. As you can see, I don't have a favorite music genre. 

Soccer. I play soccer since I was a kid. Despite it is one of my passions, I'm not always happy with it. The reason? It consists of two words: Cruz Azul.

Video games. I spent some time playing games like Halo, FIFA, Fortnite, Dark Souls, Resident Evil and The Legend of Zelda.

My favorite TV programs or series are Club de Cuervos, Breaking Bad, Two and a Half Men, The Big Bang Theory and Limitless.

Ruby and the Interpreter Pattern

Hi, today's entry is going to talk about an article written by our professor Ariel Ortiz. The article/paper is titled “Language Design and Implementation using Ruby and the Interpreter Pattern “. After reading this paper, I realized some things. First of all, I got really impressed that this paper explains a framework used to teach in a course, in my actual university, that I already took. Second, in the title the Interpreter Pattern is mentioned and actually in another course (from which I also write a blog weekly) we are treating design patterns. It’s important to mention that I’m taking that course now and it is with the same professor.  Basically, The S-expression Interpreter Framework (SIF) is explained in this article as a tool for teaching language design and implementation concepts. This interpreter was written in Ruby to help us, the students, to learn a popular object-oriented dynamic language and language design and implementations concepts. But here is the curious poin

The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy

Hi, today’s entry is going to talk about this course book called “The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy” published in 1979 by Douglass Adams. This book is literally a journey through space. The main character Arthur Dent escaped from the Earth with Ford Prefect (the actual writer for the Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy) because it was going to be destroyed. Arthur and Ford escaped on a Vogon ship (the ones who destroyed the Earth), but they were blasted into space and caught by another ship piloted by Zaphod Beeblebox, the king of the universe. That ship was both stolen and special because it has the “improbability drive” that literally functions as it sounds, with improbability. Thanks to that ship ability they arrived at a legend planet called Magrathea, where they found all the truth. That planet was the home of a computer built to find the answer to the question of Life, the Universe, and Everything. Guess what? The answer is 42 and the Earth was another super-computer built t

Technical Overview of the CLR

Hi, today’s entry is going to talk about an article called “Technical Overview of the Common Language Runtime (or why the JVM is not my favorite execution environment) written by Erik Meijer and Kim Miller in 2001. Basically, it talks about how in the past years, some language researchers moved to JVM as kind of the delivery vehicle for their language. We know that JVM is a really good target for the Java programming language, but it is not necessarily a good platform for other languages (making an emphasis in the ones that require semantic features that do not appear in Java). And here is when and why the author introduces to us the new Microsoft .NET Common Language Infrastructure (or CLI), designed from the ground to be a multi-language platform.  I want to mention one thing that seemed curious to me, the authors of this paper are Microsoft members (or at least that’s what I saw in their emails at the start of the article). This aspect made me think that obviously, as the authors
