ADA Essay: My answers for the Essay questions 1-4

Melissa McCann

  1. Essay Answer

Although I did not major In CS at Cornell University, I have always been interested in Computer Programming. While in high school I chose to enroll in an Introduction to Computer Programming course while attending Phillips Exeter Academy’s Summer Program. In college, I took an intro to MATLAB course, which I enjoyed immensely. Soon after graduating, I participated in a weekend coding bootcamp, and learned the basics of HTML, CSS, and JAVA. Although the bootcamp was very quick and fast paced, I was amazed at how much we were taught within a day. It was fun to experiment with code, and watch how just one change would give such a different result. We fiddled around with one piece of code which, with only small alterations, could result in the creation of a straight line, curvy line, circle, or a square. I messed up many times throughout the day, and had code that wasn’t working at times. However, I would work through it, and it was very rewarding when it

Lightning Talk - Hedge Funds and Programmers

Let's Start a Hedge Fund!

What is a Hedge Fund?

  • Common misconception that hedge funds are all risky ways to lose money. These guys do charge a lot - usually 2% of your total assets each year and 20% of the profits they create for you - but they're able to do beacuse they've been making people rich for a long time now.
  • Hedge funds first introduced in the 1960s
  • Designed to make money in both up and down markets and minimize volatility
  • High-speed traders came in later and adopted the hedge fund name, but in reality they often do the opposite of what a hedge fund is supposed to do

Why Should I Care About Hedge Funds?

  • Investment industry has moved heavily toward computer science and programming
