If you haven’t read part 1 of this series, I highly recommend you doing so. Otherwise, you might be a bit lost. Now, back to functional programming. We last left off talking about the basics of functional programming: types, equivalence, expressions, existential equivalence, and referential transparency. Moving forward, we are moving onto a few more … [Read more…]
Functional programming, in my opinion, is one of the most important programming paradigms. It relies on the programmers ability to understand types, algorithms, and run-time steps. Also, it happens to use a great deal of mathematics. To start with functional programming, we need a language to use. In this tutorial, we’ll use Standard ML (SML). … [Read more…]
When developers are making their applications, something they always keep in mind is the look and feel of their application. Above all standards, the user experience has the highest priority. If a developer makes an application that is not user-friendly, then I consider that application not useful. If the user cannot intuitively discern how to … [Read more…]
Most people who are interested in programming have the same problem: the starting point is unclear. Well I’m going to try and create a guide to help clear up this uncertainty. This guide will be a series of steps, with a few helpful links and some explanations. With that being said, you probably don’t need … [Read more…]
Let’s say you’re working on a project and you want to do some version control. You could either create a new folder for each version and keep track of changes in a text file. But that’s really inefficient for a large group project. So, it’ll make sense to use some version control software. Enter Git. … [Read more…]
Sir Francis Drake’s motto is sic parvis magna When translated from Latin, it means “greatness from small beginnings.” At a young age, I wanted to learn all about computers and computer science. I aspired to know it all. Anything about the current programming language I was learning, I wanted to become an expert in it. … [Read more…]
I’m thinking of what I should write about, and I realized that most people don’t really know what I do in my free time. So, I decided to write a bit about my many hobbies and my favorite pastimes. Off the bat, when someone mentions pastimes, immediately baseball comes to my mind. Unlike most teenagers … [Read more…]
