Enhancing Rust Enums in the State Pattern

stp2y0 CommentsNewscoding, community, designpatterns, development, engineering, inclusive, learning, rust, software

In my previous article, I discussed how Rust enums should be strongly considered when the solution benefits from a state machine. The strongest argument for this is the fact that the Rust compiler will inform you when a state variant isn't covered in a match expression. This was stemmed from a state pattern example provided by the official Rust book. The sample scenario they used was an article that was required to go through the status of Draft, PendingReview, and Approved. Using a similar strategy as I explained in my original article, I came up with the following code: post.rs…

Deep Learning is the core of a Machine Learning system, it is how a machine actually learns from data without much human intervention. In this post I am going to discuss how Deep Learning actually works with the data you give. The basis of a Deep Learning system are Neural Networks, they are the fundamental part of how a machine learns by itself. To understand how a Neural Network learns you need to understand how a Neural Network is structured. There are mainly 3 (or more) layers in the neural network1. Input Layer: Where the data to the network is…

Best Time to Refactor: Tips for Refactoring a Legacy Code Base

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

As software engineers, we all know that refactoring is important for maintaining and improving code quality. However, its very common being lazy. Imagine a scenario where, during a code review, someone identifies a code smell and suggests some changes. You might respond by saying there's no time for that now and that we'll add it to our technical debt backlog. Or perhaps you leave a few TODO comments instead of taking the time to write clean code. It’ll get done eventually, right?No! In reality, these tasks rarely get completed once they’re consigned to the limbo of “to be done later.”…
