The idea to build a 4th order low-pass filter looks simple: add one more feedback loop. But there are pitfalls, as always.
Do you like the '?.' operator? Well, who doesn't? Many people like these concise null checks. However, today's article shows that the '?.' operator may be tricky sometimes. That is, it can create an illusion of safety when used in the foreach loop.
I have already written about AIOps and machine learning methods in working with IT incidents, about hybrid umbrella monitoring and various approaches to service management. Now I would like to share a very specific algorithm, how one can quickly get information about functioning conditions of business applications using synthetic monitoring and how to build, on this basis, the health metric of business services at no special cost. The story is based on a real case of implementing the algorithm into the IT system of one of the airlines.
Currently there are many APM systems, such as Appdynamics, Dynatrace, and others, having a UX control module inside that uses synthetic checks. And if the task is to learn about failures quicker than customers, I will tell you why all these APM systems are not needed. Also, nowadays health metrics are a fashionable feature of APM and I will show how you can build them without APM.
Nowadays a lot of product managers have to confirm most of their decisions with AB-tests. Yet, it is far not always clear how to choose the parameters for the test. A particularly difficult parameter to tune is often the level of statistical significance. If we choose too high level - tests will fail even though improvements do exist. If we choose too low level - we'll be getting lots of "confirmations" of false improvements.
When we make decisions based on AB-tests, once in a while we'll be making mistakes. We can limit the losses caused by such mistakes by choosing the appropriate level of statistical significance.

A basic data structure in computer science is the “associative array” known as a “map”. This structure is called a “dictionary”. Dictionaries are being used when you have key-value pairs of the information. Inputs are called keys, and outputs are called values. A dictionary is the abstract data type that can store elements so that they can be positioned quickly by using keys. Dictionary is like a container that will have a searchable assortment of items. Each item in the dictionary is stored as a key-value pair. In a dictionary, we can store multiple items with the same key.
Dictionary consists of multiple elements in terms of key and value pair. Both key and value are considered as one single pair. This is called mapping. Elements of the dictionary are enclosed in curly brackets in terms of key and value pairs. Dictionaries enable us to work with key-value pairs. Key-value pairs are two linked values where the key is the unique identifier where we can discover our data and the value is that the information.
Dictionary maps key-value pairs. It is a collection data type that has key-value pairs. A dictionary does not contain any duplicate members.
It is unordered and stores data values like a map. Thus, it is similar to the real-life dictionary with distinct key values. In a dictionary, we use keys as indexes to access elements.
The dictionary helps us to organize the collection of data. It is a special data type. Its syntax is:
We continue to develop PVS-Studio as a SAST solution. Thus, one of our major goals is expanding OWASP coverage. You might ask, what's the use when there's no taint analysis? That's exactly what we thought — and decided to implement taint analysis in the C# analyzer. Curious about what we accomplished? Read on!
Angular is one of the most popular front-end development frameworks out there. It is a leading choice for personal as well as industry-level development of web applications due to its robust capabilities. While Angular is popular for many different reasons, one of the main ones is its modular nature. Modularity makes it easy for the developer to keep track of all the different elements being used to program functionalities. It also helps in keeping consistency and even reusing a block of code or functionality multiple times.
This modularity lies at the heart of Angular in the form of elements called components. This article will quickly take you through all the important bits to know about Angular components, their usage, how they are useful, and some code examples. Components make Angular easy to learn and applications easy to structure. Through this article, you’ll get to see how Angular components make all of this possible.
What Are Angular Components Exactly?
Components lie at the foundation of Angular applications. They interact similar to how HTML elements do in terms of passing data between elements and emitting events. Each of the components has some behavior attached to it that tells what data to render or load and a template that tells it how to render the data. An Angular application is based on a component tree structure where different components have child components and so on. Data is shared from parent to child components through an ‘input binding.’ Similarly, it can be shared the other way around through outputs.
From the earliest days, we used MSVC to compile the PVS-Studio C++ analyzer for Windows - then, in 2006, known as Viva64, version 1.00. With new releases, the analyzer's C++ core learned to work on Linux and macOS, and we modified the project's structure to support CMake. However, we kept using the MSVC compiler to build the analyzer's version for Windows. Then, in 2019, on April 29th, Visual Studio developers announced they had included the LLVM utilities and Clang compiler in the IDE. And just recently we've gotten around to try it.
Data structures are classified into linear and non-linear data structures. A tree is a non-linear data structure. Data is stored hierarchically in a non-linear data structure. So the tree is a way of organizing data hierarchically. A tree grows from top to bottom. In a tree, there are different kinds of nodes that are linked with each other. A tree consists of the following elements:
It is a collection of edges and vertices. It can be used to display any form of network.
The following graph contains a total of 4 vertices and 5 edges. In this graph, vertices are A, B, C and D while edges are AB, BD, DC, CA and AD. Vertices are also known as nodes. The line connecting these vertices is the edge. Vertices are like objects and edges indicate the relation between those vertices. Data is stored in nodes. This data can be of numerical data type or any other data structure.
Recursion is a strategy that algorithms use to solve specific problems. A recursive algorithm is an algorithm that solves the main problem by using the solution of a simpler sub-problem of the same type. Recursion is a particular way of solving a problem by having a function calling itself repeatedly. It is always applied to a function only. By using recursion, we can reduce the size of the program or source code. In recursion, a function invokes itself. And the function that invokes itself is referred to as a recursive function.
Suppose we have a user-defined function named ‘recursion’, and it will be written in the main function. The compiler will execute the recursion function automatically, and it will search for a particular function definition. This function definition will be executed, and control will go back to the main function. If we call the same function inside the function definition, then the compiler will move on to function definition first. When the compiler executes the recursion function, we will be calling the same function.

We describe the implementation of a custom Domain Name System (DNS) by using C socket programming for network communication, together with SQLite3 database for the storage of Internet Protocol (IP) for Uniform Resource Locator (URL). Then we provide a performance analysis of our implementation. Our code is available publicly [1].
On implementing streaming algorithms, counting of events often occurs, where an event means something like a packet arrival or a connection establishment. Since the number of events is large, the available memory can become a bottleneck: an ordinary -bit counter allows to take into account no more than
events.
One way to handle a larger range of values using the same amount of memory would be approximate counting. This article provides an overview of the well-known Morris algorithm and some generalizations of it.
Another way to reduce the number of bits required for counting mass events is to use decay. We discuss such an approach here [3], and we are going to publish another blog post on this particular topic shortly.
In the beginning of this article, we analyse one straightforward probabilistic calculation algorithm and highlight its shortcomings (Section 2). Then (Section 3), we describe the algorithm proposed by Robert Morris in 1978 and indicate its most essential properties and advantages. For most non-trivial formulas and statements, the text contains our proofs, the demanding reader can find them in the inserts. In the following three sections, we outline valuable extensions of the classic algorithm: you can learn what Morris's counters and exponential decay have in common, how to improve the accuracy by sacrificing the maximum value, and how to handle weighted events efficiently.

Dynamic programming is applied to solve optimization problems. In optimization, we try to find out the maximum or minimum solution of something. It will find out the optimal solution to any problem if that solution exists. If the solution does not exist, dynamic programming is not able to get the optimal solution.
Optimization problems are the ones that require either lowest or highest possible results. We attempt to discover all the possible solutions in dynamic programming and then choose the best optimal solution. Dynamic programming problems are solved by utilizing the recursive formulas though we will not use a recursion of programming the procedures are recursive. Dynamic programming pursues the rule of optimality.
A dynamic programming working involves around following significant steps:
Asymptotic notations are used to represent the complexity or running time of an algorithm. It is a technique of defining the upper and lower limits of the run-time performance of an algorithm. We can analyze the runtime performance of an algorithm with the help of asymptotic notations. Asymptotic notations are also used to describe the approximate running time of an algorithm.
Types of Asymptotic Notations
Following are the different types of asymptotic notations:
What this article is about
In this article, we will talk about multithreading in the backend.
• how it is implemented
• how is it used
• what can be done
• what we invented ourselves
All these questions are relevant only if you develop something for the server side - modify the Server SDK code, write your own plugin, or even start some server application from scratch.
In this topic, I will tell you how to dynamically parse and deserialize only part of the whole JSON document. We will create an implementation for .NET Core with C# as a language.
For example, we have the next JSON as a data source for the report. Notice that we will get this JSON in the runtime and at the compile step we don't know the structure of this document. And what if you need to select only several fields for processing?
