Python Set Operations Explained: From Theory to Real-Time Applications

-
Image
A  set  in Python is an unordered collection of unique elements. It is useful when storing distinct values and performing operations like union, intersection, or difference. Real-Time Example: Removing Duplicate Customer Emails in a Marketing Campaign Imagine you are working on an email marketing campaign for your company. You have a list of customer emails, but some are duplicated. Using a set , you can remove duplicates efficiently before sending emails. Code Example: # List of customer emails (some duplicates) customer_emails = [ "alice@example.com" , "bob@example.com" , "charlie@example.com" , "alice@example.com" , "david@example.com" , "bob@example.com" ] # Convert list to a set to remove duplicates unique_emails = set (customer_emails) # Convert back to a list (if needed) unique_email_list = list (unique_emails) # Print the unique emails print ( "Unique customer emails:" , unique_email_list) Ou...

Python How to Create Function

-
In Python, you can define and call the function. Once done, you can call it later from the other program. I have shared the structure of it. And, I have added the three rules of it; useful for interviews.

Structure of Function



How to Understand Python Function Quickly
Structure of Function


Rules to Create a Function


  1. A function definition is executable.
  2. The body will have the code to perform the task you wish.
  3. You can assign default parameter values.

1. Key Elements.

You will find here three key elements of the Python function. Here you can read the parameter vs argument differences.

Dream higher

Name of a function. It can be any valid identifier. It should be meaningful, and it should convey the work it will do.

Parameter. These should be separated with command and should be in the parentheses following the name of the function. The parameters are input to function. It can have any parameters.

Body of the function. The function body can contain code that implements the task to be performed by it.

2. Sample Function.

Life shrinks or expands in proportion to one’s courage

Python Example.

def product(num1, num2): 
# defined function name of product with two input parameters. 
# And this 'def' ends with ':' colon.

prod= num1*num2 
# multiplying two numbers num1 and num2 and assign to prod

print('The product of the numbers is \t:'+str(prod))
# prints product of two numbers

num1=int(input('Enter the first number\t:')) 
num2=int(input('Enter the second number\t:'))
return prod
# returns prod value to the calling program.

3. How to call a function.

Relax

myProduct = product(num1, num2)
# supply two arguments to the product function.

print(myProduct)
#The product function prints the product of two numbers.

SQL Query: 3 Methods for Calculating Cumulative SUM

-
Image
SQL provides various constructs for calculating cumulative sums, offering flexibility and efficiency in data analysis. In this article, we explore three distinct SQL queries that facilitate the computation of cumulative sums. Each query leverages different SQL constructs to achieve the desired outcome, catering to diverse analytical needs and preferences. Using Window Functions (e.g., PostgreSQL, SQL Server, Oracle) SELECT id, value, SUM(value) OVER (ORDER BY id) AS cumulative_sum  FROM your_table; This query uses the SUM() window function with the OVER clause to calculate the cumulative sum of the value column ordered by the id column. Using Subqueries (e.g., MySQL, SQLite): SELECT t1.id, t1.value, SUM(t2.value) AS cumulative_sum FROM your_table t1 JOIN your_table t2 ON t1.id >= t2.id GROUP BY t1.id, t1.value ORDER BY t1.id; This query uses a self-join to calculate the cumulative sum. It joins the table with itself, matching rows where the id in the first table is greater than...

What is placeholder in Python? The purpose of it is to mask the variable that you don't want to use in a function. In python, y ou can call the underscore ( _ ) operator placeholder. Below, you'll find how to use single and double placeholders in a function. What is placeholder in python The purpose of placeholder in Python is to mask variables that you don't want to use in a function. So that your code will be readable. Moreover, in future, if you want to use those variables you can replace the placeholders with the names you want. In This Page You'll know in three steps how to use placeholder correctly. Creating a function Logic to use single placeholder Logic to use two placeholders 1. Creating a function. def function_that_returns_multiple_values(x):        return x*2, x*3, x+1        for i in range(0,5):             square, cube, added_one = function_that_returns_multiple_values(i)      ...
