When you are working on a project that takes a lot of input from the user and stores all kinds of user data, it becomes crucial to have a good database to manage the user data and be able to do so in an efficient way.
While program data and instances are commonly stored in the form of Files, it is not the most efficient way to store the data when you are working with a lot of data and you need to be able to create, retrieve, update and delete (CRUD) such data, which is not very convenient with the use of Files. …
Selenium is a powerful tool to use for web scraping but it has its flaws, which is fair as it was developed mainly for testing web applications. Beautiful Soup on the other hand was developed specifically for web scraping and is a very powerful one indeed.
But even Beautiful Soup has its weaknesses, it is not very useful if the data that needs to be scraped is behind a “wall”, as in requires user login to access that data or requires some actions from the user.

The fall is what makes anyone, who is courageous enough to try to walk again, Great.

Learning to code has always been something I wanted do, I found the ability to make the machine do what you want impressive and coding makes you more connected with your machine in a way.
But when I started out I actually didn’t know where to start from, with the help of some of the resources online and a whole lot of YouTube videos, I managed to figure out where to start from, I had a little coding experience, from my high school days, in basics of C, C++ and HTML. But that wasn’t much, just a basic understanding and I didn’t even remember some of the concepts that I had learnt at that point. …

We all have tried to maintain a journal to list down our monthly Incomes and Expenses but only a few of us succeed in doing so regularly. I for one find it really tedious to jot down all the Income-Expense details regularly and I fail to maintain the accounts properly.
So, I came up with this simple but useful Python program that you can use to fill in your income-expense details on the go, and you can even visualize graphically how much you are spending as opposed to your earnings. …

The more you think about what future jobs would be like, the more you find the answers pointing towards automation of processes that would conventionally be done by manual labour.
