OOP is great, but it silently makes your simple programs complex — Programmers use various programming paradigms for developing software systems. There are several popular programming paradigms out there: structured, procedural, functional, modular, and object-oriented. These paradigms help programmers to organize their source codes by using a specific coding style that comes before well-known software development principles and patterns. For example, we…

Mastering C++ is not an easy task, but once you’ve done it — you will get priceless perks — Programmers typically work with multiple programming languages during their programming careers. However, we see some programmers work with a single programming language all the time. For example, we often meet Java specialists and C# specialists with decades of experience. But, learning multiple languages makes you more confident and skillful in…

Start experimenting with your terminal and find new ways to boost your programming productivity — Programmers typically tend to use command-line interfaces than graphical interfaces for doing programming-related activities. Even though most GUIs offer keyboard shortcuts, we often have to do multiple mouse clicks and movements while working GUIs. On the other hand, CLI interaction motivates developers to do almost anything with commands and scripting…

Impress both compiler and your teammate by writing better code with these programming principles — Programming refers to designing and developing computer programs by solving various technical or business problems. Programmers typically design, develop, test, release, and maintain software systems. …

Make your Bash scripts more interactive and futuristic with these tips. — Programmers often create shell scripts with the Bash command language to automate manual tasks. For example, they create Bash scripts for various configurations, file manipulations, generating build artifacts, and various DevOps-related activities. Almost all Unix-like or Unix-based operating systems offer pre-installed Bash interpreters for users — so we can write…

Consider using these practices for developing high-quality software productively — Programmers use various practices to do software development activities better. For example, some programmers always tend to write readable and clean code to maintain the quality of the codebase. Meanwhile, some programmers often tend to write efficient and hardware-friendly source codes with impressive optimization techniques. These are good practices that…

Understanding interesting concepts from programmers’ favorite operating systems — Computer users typically use various operating systems for day-to-day computing activities. The majority of developers tend to use Unix-based or Unix-like operating systems for software development due to the developer-friendly environment, core security features, portability, and performance. The open-source movement of the .NET framework (.NET Core) motivated Windows developers to…

Software development becomes too slow if you don’t implement DevOps principles — Programmers always strive to boost their productivity by doing various activities such as learning Unix terminal commands, setting up custom keyboard shortcuts, and automating manual tasks. These productivity boosters help them to save their daily programming time. Meanwhile, DevOps principles help us to boost the entire software development team’s productivity…

There are thousands of programming languages, but what kind of languages do we need to master? — There are thousands of programming languages in the world, but only about twenty programming languages are competing with each other in the modern software development industry. Also, some programmers developed esolangs like Emojicode, COW for entertainment and experimental purposes. Nowadays, popular programming languages, like Go, JavaScript, Python, Java, C#, and…
