15 Python Tips : How to Write Code Effectively

 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 and the value in a loop, enumerate is a more Pyth

The Essential Guide to Blockchain Terminology

Bitcoin was the first project developed by using blockchain. My post is to share Blockchain keywords by using an example of Bitcoin.

Let us ready...

Blockchain is new technology. Understanding its principles makes you helpful to apply in your projects. 

Initially, the purpose of Blockchain development was to carry mining. In general, mining means search and find value. Usually, mining processes are two types. Those are data mining and bitcoin mining.

Blockchain Glossary

  1. Blockchain - only blocks involved. The data which was finalized stored in blocks.
  2. Bitcoin Ledger - It is a public ledger
  3. Ledger or Blockchain - The chain of blocks
  4. Functions of Blockchain - It validates each transaction, Keeps track, and verifies ownership
  5. Double Spending- It prevents duplicating the Cryptocurrency for using next time.
  6. Consensus mechanism - It is also called PoW (proof of work). This mechanism avoids double-spending
  7. Group of Transactions - When a new group of transactions created, those will be added to the blockchain.
  8. Hash - Group of transactions created a Hash. This hash will be stored along with a group of transactions in the Blockchain. Hashing is the top security mechanism in the blockchain.
  9. Mining - It doesn't create Bitcoins and alter or modify blockchain. The miners will be rewarded with Bitcoins

Blockchain types


Here are three types of Blockchains

Private blockchains

  • Private blockchains are great for developers because they allow them to test ideas without using cryptocurrency. The developers’ ideas can remain a secret as well because the data has not been published publicly.
  • Large institutions can capitalize on the security and permanence of blockchain technology without their transactions being public the way they are in traditional blockchains.

    Public Blockchains

    • Public blockchains are available to the general public. An example is buying an art piece from a vendor located in another country.

    Hybrid Blockchains

    • These are a combination of public and private.
