Introduction to Functional Programming in JavaScript: Closure #2

stp2y0 CommentsNewscoding, community, development, engineering, inclusive, javascript, software

Closures are a fundamental concept in JavaScript that every developer should understand. They play a crucial role in functional programming and are essential for creating more advanced functionality in JavaScript applications. What is a Closure? A closure is a function that has access to its own scope, the scope of the outer function, and the global scope. This means that a closure can access variables and parameters from its own function scope, the scope of the function that contains it, and any global variables. In other words, a closure allows a function to "remember" the environment in which it was…

HTML Forms- In details

stp2y0 CommentsNewscoding, community, development, engineering, inclusive, software

Forms are essential components in HTML, allowing users to submit data to a server. This guide will explore the creation and handling of HTML forms, providing examples and best practices. 1. Basic Form Structure A basic HTML form is created using the <form> element. Within the form, various input elements like text fields, radio buttons, and submit buttons are used to collect user data. Example: Basic Form <!DOCTYPE html> <html> <head> <title>Basic Form Example</title> </head> <body> <h1>Basic HTML Form</h1> <form action="/submit" method="post"> <label for="name">Name:</label> <input type="text" id="name" name="name"><br><br> <label for="email">Email:</label> <input type="email" id="email" name="email"><br><br> <input type="submit" value="Submit"> </form> </body> </html>…

Wildcard Generic Types

stp2y0 CommentsNewsbeginners, coding, community, development, engineering, inclusive, java, learning, programming, software

You can use unbounded wildcards, bounded wildcards, or lower-bound wildcards to specify a range for a generic type. What are wildcard generic types and why are they needed? The code below gives an example todemonstrate the needs. The example defines a generic max method for finding the maximum in a stack of numbers (lines 15–25). The main method creates a stack of integer objects, adds three integers to the stack, and invokes the max method to find the maximum number in the stack. The program above has a compile error in line 11 because intStack is not an instance of…

Introduction to Contract Testing Definition and importance of contract testing: Imagine that you and your friends are planning a party and each one has a task: one will bring the snacks, another the sweets, and another the drinks. To ensure that everything goes well, you make a list of what everyone should bring. "Contract testing" is like this list, but for computer programs that need to talk to each other. It checks that each part of the program is doing exactly what it promised, just like you check that each friend brought what they agreed to for the party. This…

Innovative JavaScript Features in 2024: Enhancing Developer Experience and Codebase Quality

stp2y0 CommentsNewscoding, community, development, ecma2024, engineering, inclusive, javascript, node, software

The JavaScript language continues to evolve, and 2024 brings some exciting new features that will improve the developer experience and codebase quality. Let's explore some of these features and how they will benefit developers. 1)** Temporal**Temporal is a proposal to introduce a new global object that replaces the existing Date object in JavaScript. This new object offers a more modern and intuitive API for working with dates, times, and time zones. With Temporal, developers can easily handle complex date and time-related tasks, ensuring accurate and reliable results. This feature will reduce the need for external libraries and minimize potential errors…

Event-Driven Architecture: reconcile Notification and Event-Carried State Transfer patterns

stp2y0 CommentsNewscoding, community, development, engineering, event, eventbridge, eventdriven, inclusive, serverless, software

Event-driven architectures have tremendous benefits: decoupling application components brings improved resilience, the ability to isolate non-scalable workloads from unpredictable user traffic and better user experience (returning a response before we do the complexe processing). However, their design is not easy and can lead to numerous debates among developers and architects: should we have very minimalistic events, requiring consumers to fetch additional information? do we need fully-qualified events? .. In this post, I explain the different types of events and propose a way to simply reconcile the different approaches by relying on AWS EventBridge. A Github repo with fully functional examples…
