Software
I’ve been programming since the age of 7; my first computer was the C64.
I believe most software should be free (and that good software is).

genieclust (Py+R)
Fast and robust hierarchical clustering with noise point detection: Genie finds meaningful clusters and is fast even on large data sets.

stringi (R)
stringi (pronounced “stringy”, IPA [strinɡi]) is THE R[1] package for very fast, portable, correct, consistent, and convenient string/text processing in any locale or character encoding. It is one of the most often downloaded packages on CRAN.
