My name is John Tolle. I'm an engineer and statistical consultant in Houston who has also done a lot of computer programming.
I currently do statistical analysis with R and Stata, and do some "data-science" programming as needed.
A few years ago, I wrote a set of Excel VBA libraries in order to build spreadsheet models like "real" software - that is, as modular, testable, maintainable computer programs. They extended Excel with a true functional programming system with a syntax very close to native Excel formulas. (This was very valuable to my former employer! Please see the Background section of my Stack Overflow Careers profile for more information.)
