Collection of some of my academic and personal projects
Academic – CSElecs: This is my creative project for Stanford's CS109: Probability for Computer Scientists. Created in December 2022, this project is a conceptual application of the machine learning algorithm Naive-Bayes. The goal is to help Stanford students with picking CS electives, specifically CS students. First, a student will list all the CS electives they have taken, along with whether they liked/disliked each of the classes. Then, the Naive-Bayes algorithm determines the probability of liking another CS elective. At least this is the idea; the data needed to make this project accurate would require approval and support from the Stanford CS department in query students in each CS class offered. Thus, it's currently just a concept and fun probability generator to play with: https://pierrelabroche.github.io/CSElecs/index.html
Personal - Space Invaders: If you have never played, it is a retro arcade game that our great, great...great grandparents used to play. After learning how to code through JavaScript, HTML, and CSS in high school, I created this web version of said retro game. You have a spaceship at the bottom of the screen that you control and aliens above who are coming towards you slowly. You need to shoot all the aliens before they hit the bottom to win. It serves as a major milestone in my CS journey and a fun game to play! Give it a try here: https://pierrelabroche.github.io/SpaceInvaders/spaceinvaders.html
Personal - Car Game: This is my first game I have coded. It is a simple game that I am extremely happy I managed to create. You are an orange car at the bottom of the screen and you have red cars that are randomly generated and racing down at you. You are trying to avoid as many red cars as you can before you crash into one and lose. What's the catch? Every 7 cars you dodge, the speed of all the cars increases. Sounds fun?
