Postcard from Doug

Even though I have moved over to the Video blog [click here] I wanted to give a quick update on the winner of the data exploration puzzler we did a while back.

It turns out that the winner, Arthur, already had a t-shirt from when Loren visited MIT. So instead, he sent me a resume, applied and got a job at The MathWorks. He started Monday.

Being active on MATLAB Central is beneficial in and of itself, but it can also lead to careers with us. Jiro and Brett were already well known for their MATLAB cleverness through MATLAB Central before they started here.

If you want a job at The MathWorks click here and send your favorite blogger your resume. MATLAB Postcard

Be sure to visit the new video blog and subscribe so that you know when I put up new videos, tutorials and puzzlers.

    Doug is my favorite MathWorks blogger. Loren is also my favorite. That Mike guy not so bad.

    So Arthur got a free job at The MathWorks by solving your puzzler? I would have opted for a second t-shirt . . . :)

    Congrats Arthur!

Wrap code fragments inside <pre> tags, like this:

<pre class="code">
a = magic(3);
sum(a)
</pre>

If you have a "<" character in your code, either follow it with a space or replace it with "&lt;" (including the semicolon).
