15 Python Tips : How to Write Code Effectively

Image
 Here are some Python tips to keep in mind that will help you write clean, efficient, and bug-free code.     Python Tips for Effective Coding 1. Code Readability and PEP 8  Always aim for clean and readable code by following PEP 8 guidelines.  Use meaningful variable names, avoid excessively long lines (stick to 79 characters), and organize imports properly. 2. Use List Comprehensions List comprehensions are concise and often faster than regular for-loops. Example: squares = [x**2 for x in range(10)] instead of creating an empty list and appending each square value. 3. Take Advantage of Python’s Built-in Libraries  Libraries like itertools, collections, math, and datetime provide powerful functions and data structures that can simplify your code.   For example, collections.Counter can quickly count elements in a list, and itertools.chain can flatten nested lists. 4. Use enumerate Instead of Range     When you need both the index ...

Top Key Architecture Components in HIVE

5 architectural components present in Hadoop Hive: Shell: allows interactive queries like MySQL shell connected to a database – Also supports web and JDBC clients Driver: session handles, fetch, execute Compiler: parse, plan, optimize Execution engine: DAG of stages (M/R, HDFS, or metadata) Metastore: schema, location in HDFS, SerDe

Data Mode of Hive:
  • Tables
– Typed columns (int, float, string, date, boolean)
– Also, list: map (for JSON-like data)
  • Partitions
– e.g., to range-partition tables by date
  • Buckets
– Hash partitions within ranges (useful for sampling, join optimization)

HIVE Meta Store
  • Database: namespace containing a set of tables
  • Holds table definitions (column types, physical layout)
  • Partition data 
  • Uses JPOX ORM for implementation; can be stored in Derby, MySQL, many other relational databases
Physical Layout of HIVE
  • Warehouse directory in HDFS
– e.g., /home/hive/warehouse
  • Tables stored in subdirectories of warehouse
– Partitions, buckets form subdirectories of tables
  • Actual data stored in flat files
– Control char-delimited text, or SequenceFiles
– With custom SerDe, can use arbitrary format
