Hello hello, and welcome to my page!

My Name

My name is Kevin Liang. Kevin is pronounced "KEV'-in" (I'm not sure how else you would pronounce it). On the other hand, my last name is Chinese, so it will inevitably be butchered. However, of the various Anglicized versions that I have heard, I like "lee-ANG'" the best. So to summarize, please call me "KEV'-in lee-ANG'."

Interests

My interests include tennis, ultimate, piano, violin, reading, hanging out with friends, creating optional sections on my own Pundit page, etc.

Favorite Matlab Demo

I have to say that my favorite Matlab demonstration was the Teapot. It was just so unexpected. I have always thought of Matlab as a tool to create mathematical programs or to make 3-dimensional graphs, but it had never occurred to me to try and make a teapot. Seeing Matlab being used in such a seemingly random application has made me a bit more open-minded as to what I can do.
