Michal Beneš's software

Stuff I have done since 1986

Under construction This is a gallery of various software projects I have started since I started writing small basic programs on Atari 800XL in 1986. Some of them might be of interest to you, others are just a piece of nostalgia to me.

Representative sample of my C++ code

As the other projects listed on this site need not represent the quality of my current commercial code, I have decided to put here a small sample representing my current coding style and code quality. This code is intended for interviewers during any job interviews I might undertake in future.

Year: 2009

Highlights: Polished and documented C++ code representing the code quality of my current commercial projects.
