This article explores the different programming paradigms that shape the way we code and solve problems. It discusses their characteristics, use-cases, advantages, and examples, covering Imperative, Object-oriented, Functional, and Logic programming paradigms.
This article aims to discuss the fundamental differences between recursion and iteration, two key strategies in programming and algorithm design. We will delve into the advantages and disadvantages of each approach and offer insight on when to employ each technique, supported by practical examples and code snippets for better understanding.
This article unpacks the concept of scope and variable lifetime in programming, delineating between global and local variables and the role of variable visibility. It is a comprehensive guide, equipped with practical examples and code snippets, to help readers grasp these fundamental principles that dictate how variables operate in different programming environments.
In this article, we will embark on a journey through these fundamental data structures, unraveling their intricacies and exploring their unique characteristics. We will dive into the details of each data structure, examining how they store and represent data, and discover their distinctive advantages and use cases.
Part 3 of our Python crash course covers the use of some data structures such as lists and dictionaries, as well as file handling.
Part 2 of our Python crash course covers the conditional statements, control structures, functions and exception handling.
