The Resolver One Challenge:
Winners So Far

April's winner: Greg Bray

Greg's Texas Holdem Monte Carlo Simulator is a clever blend of compiled .NET code, IronPython, and Resolver One. A must for any serious poker player...

February's winner: Marjan Ghahremani

Marjan's winning spreadsheet demonstrated how to get Resolver One to work with R, an advanced statistical system.

Marjan is a student at UC Davis, double majoring in psychology and anthropology. Her interest is in doing research on social and developmental psychology, and for data analysis she needs a very strong statistical tool. R fits the bill perfectly, and with her integration code she can call into it from the Resolver One graphical interface.

You can download the R integration code, along with an explanatory PDF file, from here.

January's winner: Siamak Faridani

Siamak is a PhD student at the University of California, Berkeley, whose spreadsheet to estimate the electrostatic field around Micro Electro Mechanical Systems wowed the judges with its integrated use of the grid and programming, and in particular with the beautiful graphs it generates using gnuplot.
