My name is Sean Frith, but most people just call me Sean or "Fritz". The pronunciation is fairly straightforward, Sean is pronounced like "Shawn" or "Shaun". Frith is pronounced as it looks, with the "i" pronounced like in the word "it." Both words are one syllable and the stress is just at the beginning.

I enjoyed playing the game minesweeper in matlab, using the code xpbombs. I think it is really interesting to play a traditional desktop game like minesweeper in the math coding program. I had difficulty beating the game, and could not complete it in over 10 tries. I challenge everyone to try and beat the 13 bombs hidden within the playing field.
