Freshman Year : For All Engineering Students

-

I believe: "sharing good is caring", so, I decided to share some of the important videos, for all the engineering students, who are about to start their first semester especially in NUST. 
so here you go..

(Click on The bulleted item, and you will get to the corresponding link)

1. Calculus:
First, foremost and the dearest subject of students is "Calculus", this will make you both cry and smile. So, if you want to do it well ,here are some videos:
    • I found it, really helpful
2. Applied Physics:
Applied Physics abbreviated as "AP" is the second favorite subject of engineers at NUST (on a lighter note). 
3. Discrete Mathematics:
I took this subject very light, but it isn't, so you need to put effort in it too. (exceptional cases are always there).
4. Fundamentals of Programming:
Well, this course is important generally for everyone but particularly for Computer Science and Software Engineering students. In the first semester, I learned Python. I am not sure about the programming language for this year. But, the crucial thing is to make your concepts really strong, and long lasting.
  • W3 School: When you talk about coding, how can you forget W3 School.
So, these were some videos and websites that I wanted to share with you. I hope, you will find this helpful.
Good Luck for 4 years and the whole life :)

Pintos : Series : Part3 : Project 1 : Alarm Clock

-
Image
The PintOS project has 27 test cases that we need to pass. In the first project we are just going for the five test cases related to alarm clock that are as under: alarm_multiple alarm_single alarm_simultaneous alarm_negative alarm_zero But before jumping into the code, let's first understand the basic structure of PintOS and how it runs. Consider the following diagram: Here QEMU is an emulator on which pintOS runs. Test cases are the processes that we run on the PintOS (Operating System). So we only need to modify the PintOS code, we are not allowed to make any change to the test cases code as this would be a cheating. When you open up the PintOS directory, in tests/threads/tests.c all the test cases are declared. And in the tests/threads/ directory you can observe files with the extension " .ck " and " .c ". So the " test_Name.c " files are the files in which test cases are defined, while " test_Name.ck " file...

E-Commerce : Platforms

Before digging into E-commerce platforms, let's first understand what an E-commerce actually is? E-Commerce... According to the Tokenization Rule , E-commerce is the combination of "E" and "Commerce".  The word Commerce means trade or buying and selling of items, goods, services, hardwares and, softwares... etc. And " E " stands for "Electronic", electronic means something like electricity, like signals, like something in the form of electrons (at lower level).  Image Source So, the word " E-COMMERCE " means: " A type of trade, that is done using electronic devices (computer, mobile or ATM machines etc). "   And to achieve electronic commerce, what's the most important thing? think over it!  Yeah that's correct! your own Internet is the most important thing to do E-commerce.  Major areas of E-commerce are: On-line shopping or retailing On-line bidding or auction On-line soft...

1-Machine Learning : Start...

John went to the cafeteria 10 times at 1:00 P.M. on 10 Fridays, each time the cafeteria was closed at that particular time. John decided not to go to cafe at 1:00 P.M. on Friday because the cafe will be closed.  But wait! How did John know that the cafe will  also be closed on next Friday at 1:00 P.M.??? Yes, you are absolutely right.  "John Learned from his Experience that the Task of going to the cafeteria at 1:00 P.M. on Fridays resulted in waste of time, since the cafe was closed on each Friday, so it will Perform the same on the next Friday." In the above scenario, John learned something so we can call it " John Learning ". Similarly, if we replace John with some sort of Machine, that can learn from the Experience or from the History about how the tasks were performed in the past given certain situation. Such that the Machine will perform the same if the same task happen again in near future. Then this will be called as Machine Learning. To mak...

When did you open your Facebook last time? Have you connected with other people on Linked In? If not then, you might have sent an email... What am I talking about? Image Source That's right! I am talking about Web applications . Web applications are the applications that run over the web or an Internet. There are some differences between website and web applications. Difference between Websites and Web applications.. The main differences between websites and web applications are as under: Websites: Provide information as a static file. Not very much interactive. Don't allow the user to do transactions. For example: news feeds, blogs, images etc. Web applications: Provide dynamic data. Interactive rather than just informative. Allow the user to do transactions. For example: bidding sites, on-line shopping sites, mailing sites, facebook, Twitter and Wikipedia etc. How do they work? On an abstract and simple level, The client(web browser...

Have you ever wonder what is growing with an increasing rate in the whole world ? Think, think... Yeah right Data is growing with each passing day. Data about what ? Data about each and everything, data about us, about our environment and about the whole air data is growing. I think when you even take a breath, this increases the data. You know what there is something called "Data lake". Now what to do with this data? Look when you have something really useful like Data, what would you do with that? Let me make it simple, if you used to buy ice-cream from one specific mart in Rs.100 and you got to know one more mart who is providing that same ice-cream in Rs.90, then you use to say wow, I can have that ice-cream by saving Rs.10. Now, how did you take that decision, on the basis of what thing?? Absolutely right!! DATA ! So on the basis of data we take decisions, on these decisions our whole life depends. You can ruin your whole life with just a single wrong decisi...

So first thing is Necessity... Once upon a time, there was   a large company who wanted to create a website for e-commerce . The website was for 24/7 and large amount of data needed to be managed and maintained . For this the management team of the company decided to launch their website onto the server. Initially the website got Launched successfully, but one day in the fine morning the CEO woke up from his/her slumber and got the Phone call from the manager. The manager told the CEO that their site was down last night due to heavy traffic on the server. CEO called an emergency meeting, in the meeting, the company decided to buy more servers as their data as well as the users were increasing . So in order to deal with  the large amount of data and heavy traffic , the...

If you are bored of your career choice, and you are thinking that you have made a wrong choice. And now you don't have any other choice but to pursue this career. Then this blog post is for you... Today I watched  a few Motivational videos by Qasim Ali Shah and Sandeep Maheshwari .  The lesson I learned from those videos can be applied in the lives of Software Engineering students or any other person's. Lesson: You have got this life and this is up to you, how you shape this. Currently you might not have any passion in your life. But your live's passion could be that you have to master each and every aspect of your life. Meaning that the things, the issues, a programming problem, a bug in the code, anything that encounters you in your life, you need to tackle with that professionally. See yourself as a Master Piece. Allah has created you, and you are a Master Piece, you are no less. If Software Engineering was once your passion and now you are no more pas...

There was a question related to <datalist>  regarding HTML 5. Question: Is it necessary to have <input> tag for  <datalist> usage or The search bar in the output is due to the <input> tag? Answer: Yes, the <input> tag is a must before <datalist> tag, this is because if you don't use <input> tag, then there will be no data list in the output. Reference code: (WITHOUT INPUT TAG) <!DOCTYPE html> <html><head><title></title></head> <body> <form action="" method="" > <datalist id= "list" > <option value= "a" > <option value= "b" > <option value= "c" > <option value= "d" > </datalist> </form> </body> </html> Output: Nothing in the output _ blank Do you see anything in the output ?
