I am currently attending Rutgers Coding Bootcamp and falling more in love with the command line. I love Javascript because it makes me feel super-human and I love coding because I get to organize language...what more can you want in life? I mean, besides puppies and kittens.

This R function allows sampling of a dataframe.  This is helpful when writing a script which will be used against a large dataframe, however, writing the script is iterative.  Sampling allows the overall reduction in time of testing iterations, without losing the validity of realistic results.

```r

    options(java.parameters = "-Xmx14336m")  ## memory set to 14 GB
    library("sqldf")
    library("XLConnect")
    library("tcltk")

    df <- readWorksheetFromFile("Data_X.xlsx", sheet = 1, startRow = 1)

    sampleVector <- sample(1:nrow(df), 30000)
    df2 <- df[sampleVector,]

    write.csv(df2, file="Sample of Data_X (30000).csv", na="")

Hi! I've been entering instructions into text editors for like 20 years -- cut my teeth on C++, currently geeking out in JavaScript, and filled the time between mostly with Java and Python.

Here are the conclusions I've come to so far with all this experience:

1. Keep an open mind; what you know now will become wrong later.
1. Less is more (except in speed).
1. Don't forget why you're writing what you're writing.

Hello, I am Brennen Denomme. I am a student at Georgian College in Barrie, Ontario in the Computer Programmer program, however I am mostly a self taught developer. I got into web development in my senior year of highschool and worked on it here and there, closer to Summer of 2016 I decided it was time to dive in and do something with my life, and that is when I commited pretty much every night to reading articles, listening to podcasts and following tutorials to learn JavaScript.

Since then I have started college, and completed freelance and contract work, and am starting a co-op position Summer '17. 

I mainly work with ReactJS as I am a front-end nerd, although I also have experience with Node, Express & Koa, MongoDB & PostgreSQL for back-end. I have also dabbled in Ruby On Rails as well as Laravel (PHP is a mandatory course for my program, it's vanilla PHP though).

I am interested in learning more about back-end development as I aspire to be that guy that sits on a beanbag chair doing full-stack work at some trendy startup somewhere in Europe (preferably Germany or Switzerland). I also have some interest in Machine Learning and AI.

I have been coding for 22 of my 35 years.

You can find me on GitHub as [significant-bit](https://github.com/significant-bit) and Twitter as [DangerCobraM](https://twitter.com/DangerCobraM).

I moved to Apex, NC (near Raleigh) in 2015. Spent a few years in Boston before that. Still make it back to Boston once a year & NYC twice for demoparties, to see friends, any excuse really!

I work on Blender, the free & open source 3D graphics suite. Mostly through freelance/contract/sponsorship from outside companies since the Blender project itself doesn't have the resources to support full-time developers. I've worked on OpenGL drivers & other geeky system stuff previously.

I program in C and Python, and recently moved back to C++ for personal projects after realizing C++11 transformed it into a really good language.

I am currently learning more about Python, Vulkan, Unreal Engine, and educating/mentoring other devs.

One notable oddity (or superpower? so far it hasn't paid off) is that I am equally interested in new and old technologies. I ask questions like "Why doesn't this work on Windows 2000? What's stopping us?" or "How can I adapt [modern graphics technique] for the Rage 128 in a G3 iMac?". I don't believe one solution should fit all. But I do like knowing the strengths & limitations of any tech and uncover the "why".
