Understanding Python Decorators

If you have ever wondered what those @something mean above a python function or method then you are going to have your answers now. This @something line of code is actually called a decorator. I have red from various articles about them but some of them were not able to clarify the concept of a decorator and what we can achieve with them. So in this post we'll learn a lot about python decorators. Here is a list of topics we'll be covering. What is python decorator Understanding the concept Multiple decorators on same function class method decorator Where can we use decorators What is python decorator A python decorator is nothing but a function which accepts your given function as a parameter and returns a replacement function.

Cordova actually ignores the viewport meta tag which causes the pixel density problem. So we need to tell cordova that viewport tag is equally important as other tags. To do this, we need to add some code to a file which is specify in the article. Corodva messes with pixels If you are using the latest cordova version or creating the cordova app for latest android versions then you may have faced the zoom malfunctioning.I also faced it when creating an app. Many of you may have already searched the web and found the answer of changing the meta tag attributes to get it working.

So the final solution which i found was one of the stackexchange answer but rarely found. So i am gonna two things here, i ...

Hash Tables : Handling Collision

We saw in the previous post how a simple hash table can be constructed without much effort. But, and that is a big But, that table was prone to collisions and could result in corrupted data. Of course we don't want a data structure which can corrupt our data even if it is faster. So to avoid data corruption we will study some collision resolution techniques and will see how to evenly distribute a key over the table to minimize collision. Lets continue the journey. What Problems Does Hashing Solve ? Simple Implementation of Hash Table Collision Resolution Chaining Open Addressing Designing Hash Functions How Python Dictionaries Work Hashing in Action Collision Resolution First of all, what is collision ? Collision is a phenomenon which happens when 2 or more distinct keys are mapped to the same hash table entry. But we don't wa...
