Zipper
I invented the Zipper data structure in 1995 and presented it at the
Federated Logic Conference (FLoC) in 1996. No offence meant to ladies.
Zen
Nowadays my favorite occupation is programming various tasks in
Ocaml.
I am currently developing a computational linguistics toolkit
Zen, developed in the framework of
a computational linguistics platform for
Sanskrit.
