Sharing notes from my ongoing learning journey — what I build, break and understand along the way.
Java Basics – Part 1 1 Structure and Hello World Every Java program needs at least one class and one main() method.Code blocks use curly braces { } instead of indentation. Key points 2 Strong Typing and Variables Java is…
Python Practice Exercises – Part 6 Try to solve each exercise on your own first.After the exercise list, scroll down to the “Solutions” section to compare your approach. Exercises Exercise 1 – Digit-Cancelling Fractions Normally, you may not just “cancel…
Python Practice Exercises – Part 5 In this part, you’ll find a series of Python practice exercises.Each one focuses on a key programming skill — functions, loops, conditions, and basic algorithms.Try to solve them first, then check the explanations below.…
OOP, Lambdas, and Higher-Order Functions in Python In this part of the Python Basics series, we take a first look at object-oriented programming (OOP) in Python and then move on to anonymous functions (lambdas) and higher-order functions such as map,…
Recursion, Sets, Identity, and Pattern Matching in Python In this part of the Python Basics series, we’ll explore several advanced but fundamental Python topics: recursion, sets, conditional expressions, the identity operator (is), and the new pattern matching (match/case) syntax introduced…
Python Basics – Part 11: File Handling and Text Files In this part of the Python Basics series, we focus on working with files in Python:how to open, read, write, and append text files, how the file pointer works, and…
Error Handling and Exception Patterns in Python In this part of the Python Basics series, we’ll explore error handling in Python — how to prevent your code from crashing, respond gracefully to unexpected situations, and keep your programs running smoothly.We’ll…
Tuples, Dictionaries, and Comprehensions in Python In this week’s Python training notes, we continue exploring core data structures and essential programming patterns.We’ll look at Tuples, Dictionaries, Comprehensions, and a few handy built-in mathematical functions that make data handling smoother. Tuples…
Python Basics – Part 8: Functions, Parameters, Floating-Point Math, and Built-in Keywords This week, we’re continuing our Python fundamentals series with a deep dive into one of the most important topics in programming — functions.We’ll explore how functions work, how…
Why the Arduino Starter Kit Is a Smart Way to Learn Programming As someone studying System Integration and interested in understanding how software interacts with hardware, I see great value in learning programming through hands-on experience.At this point, the Arduino…
