Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolJim Armstrong is a retired research mathematician-turned-software craftsman who applies numerical analysis, computational geometry, and AI to practical web and visualization problems. With a background in assembly-language math libraries for supercomputers and decades of C/C++ and TypeScript development, he has built solvers, math libraries, and high-end plugins that power games, engineering tools, and business decision analytics. As founder of The Algorithmist and L-5 Imaging, he blends R&D in applied math with compelling content creation—producing technical articles as an ng-conf Angular Champion and running a SAR-focused YouTube channel. Now selective about engagements, he focuses on targeted R&D, advanced data visualization, and mathematical libraries in TypeScript while spending much of his time leading night wilderness search-and-rescue operations and aerial videography.
