 Here are some key terms commonly used in data pipelines 1. Data Sources Definition: Points where data originates (e.g., databases, APIs, files, IoT devices). Examples: Relational databases (PostgreSQL, MySQL), APIs, cloud storage (S3), streaming data (Kafka), and on-premise systems. 2. Data Ingestion Definition: The process of importing or collecting raw data from various sources into a system for processing or storage. Methods: Batch ingestion, real-time/streaming ingestion. 3. Data Transformation Definition: Modifying, cleaning, or enriching data to make it usable for analysis or storage. Examples: Data cleaning (removing duplicates, fixing missing values). Data enrichment (joining with other data sources). ETL (Extract, Transform, Load). ELT (Extract, Load, Transform). 4. Data Storage Definition: Locations where data is stored after ingestion and transformation. Types: Data Lakes: Store raw, unstructured, or semi-structured data (e.g., S3, Azure Data Lake).

2 Multiline Commenting Ideas in Python

Image
Here are two ways you can comment out multiple lines in python. Python Multiline Comments These are two popular methods Viz Backslash and Triple quote methods. 1. Backslash method >>> s = "This is a test of the emergency broadcast system" \ … " and it will display an emergency if you put a line of text" \ … " that is more than 80 characters on a single line" >>> print(s) This is a test of the emergency broadcast system and it will display an emergency if you put a line of text that is more than 80 characters on a single line 2. Triple quote method >>> s1 = """ This is a test of the emergency broadcast system. … and it will display an emergency if you put a line of text … that is more than 80 characters on a single line … """ >>> print(s1) This is a test of the emergency broadcast system. and it will display an emergency if you put a line of text that is more than 80 characters on a single l...

How to Explain String Immutability in Python Correctly

Image
Here is an answer to explain the immutability of Strings in Python. It means that you can't modify the string. Due to this, you can use strings securely in many places of your project. How to check string immutability Here is an example. In the python shell, assign a value of your choice to a string. Here my choice is ABCD, and I have assigned it to myString. I have tried to replace A with Z. But, it gave an error due to the immutability of strings. >>> myString = 'ABCD' >>>myString [0] = 'Z' What is learning here The strings immutability is an interview question. In interviews, you can say that strings are immutable, and you can't replace its data. Benefits of strings immutability It saves a lot of time since the data in strings are immutable. It results in high performance. String objects you can reuse as no one can modify its value. Strings are elemental. So no activity can change its value ( these are more like numbers).
