The Halting Problem
Tags: devchallenge, cschallenge, computerscience, beginners
Published: 2024-06-16 19:06:52

*This is a submission for [DEV Computer Science Challenge v24.06.12: One Byte Explainer](https://dev.to/challenges/cs).*

## Explainer

The halting problem asks whether there can be a machine that determines whether a program will halt or continue indefinitely. It cannot exist; if we add a negation to this machine and evaluate it on itself, it will always fail because of its contradiction.

## Additional Context

Solved by Alan Turing. Explaining this concept is complicated, since it requires the use of several compound functions:

1. **Extended Explanation**:
   - "H" which can determine whether any program 𝑃 stops or continues given an input.
   - We use "H" to create a program "D" that takes as input the code of a program "P".
   - "D(P)" calls "H(P, P)", evaluating "P" with its own code as input.
   - If "H(P, P)" says "yes" (P stops at P), "D(P)" enters an infinite loop.
   - If "H(P, P)" says "no" (P does not stop at P), "D(P)" stops.

2. **Paradox:**
   - Passing "D" to itself as input: "D(D)":
     - If "H(D, D)" says that "D(D)" stops, "D(D)" enters an infinite loop (contradiction).
     - If "H(D, D)" says that "D(D)" does not stop, "D(D)" stops (another contradiction).

Building charts and Dev UX
Tags: javascript, webdev, charts, productivity
Published: 2024-06-16 18:03:50

As a developer one of the frequent decisions I face is selecting the right library for charts on my projects.
It’s a critical choice, as the library can significantly impact both the ease of development and the end-user experience.

For a long time, I relied on Chart.js due to its simplicity and quick setup. However, I quickly encountered limitations. One major issue was the difficulty in customizing tooltips. While Chart.js does offer ways to create custom tooltips, including HTML tooltips, it’s not straightforward. Implementing custom HTML tooltips requires significant manual effort to manage tooltip elements.
Moreover, adapting Chart.js to work seamlessly with responsive designs posed another challenge. Customizing charts with media queries isn’t natively supported, and achieving the desired responsiveness required workarounds that felt more like hacks than solutions.

These limitations led me to explore other options, and that’s when I discovered Apache ECharts
https://echarts.apache.org/en/index.html
This library felt like a breath of fresh air. ECharts offers out-of-the-box support for advanced customizations and responsive designs. 
The ability to easily integrate HTML content in tooltips without cumbersome workarounds made a huge difference in the workflow. Additionally, its responsive features are intuitive, making it easier to ensure that charts look great on all devices.

Code for a custom HTML tooltip
![Image description](https://dev-to-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/uploads/articles/vj8qmd1136oid9sbjy6t.jpg)

It not only enhanced the functionality and aesthetics of my charts but also streamlined my development process. If you’re facing similar issues with your charts, I highly recommend giving ECharts a try.

On the 2nd day of the challenge, I learned how to use the useEffect hook and fetch data from a mock server and display it on the DOM which was quite tricky to get the hang of but I am still managing to learn more of React.JS.

<u>**What I did on that day:**</u>
i) Made a quiz app where useEffect was used to add a timer functionality for each qsn:

What is Value Types and Reference Types in JavaScript
Tags: javascript, webdev, programming
Published: 2024-06-16 17:46:43

Two fundamental categories that every developer should understand are value types and reference types. Value type is basically it will not changeable after something is assigned to variable and reference type is what we can change after declaration.

In JavaScript objects are reference type and all other data types are value types. It is important to know the difference between this to datatypes which will help you avoid common pitfalls and write more efficient code. 

**Value type example**
`let a = 10;
let b = a; // b is now 10
b = 20; // changing b does not affect a
console.log(a); // 10
`
**Reference type example**
`let obj = { name: 'John' };
obj.name = 'Doe'; // the original object is modified
console.log(obj.name); // 'Doe'
`

Blockchain
Tags: devchallenge, cschallenge, computerscience, beginners
Published: 2024-06-16 17:44:31

Blockchain is a decentralized and distributed digital ledger technology that securely records transactions across multiple computers. The main innovation of blockchain is its ability to allow digital information to be recorded and shared without the need for a central authority, ensuring transparency and security.

Each transaction on a blockchain is grouped into a "block." These blocks are linked or "chained" together in chronological order through cryptographic hashes, which are unique identifiers generated by a hash function. Once a block is added to the chain, it is extremely difficult to alter the information within it, providing a high level of data integrity and security.

Blockchain operates on a peer-to-peer network where each participant (or "node") maintains a copy of the entire blockchain. Transactions are validated by these nodes through a consensus mechanism, such as Proof of Work (PoW) or Proof of Stake (PoS). In PoW, miners compete to solve complex mathematical puzzles to validate transactions and add new blocks, earning cryptocurrency rewards for their efforts. PoS, on the other hand, allows validators to create new blocks based on the number of tokens they hold and are willing to "stake" as collateral.

The most well-known application of blockchain technology is cryptocurrencies, such as Bitcoin and Ethereum. However, blockchain's potential extends beyond digital currencies. It can be used for a variety of applications including supply chain management, voting systems, healthcare records, and smart contracts. Smart contracts are self-executing contracts with the terms directly written into code, which automatically enforce and execute agreements when certain conditions are met.

Blockchain's decentralized nature, coupled with its transparency and security features, makes it a transformative technology with the potential to revolutionize various industries by reducing fraud, improving transparency, and enabling secure, efficient transactions.
330. Patching Array
Tags: php, leetcode, algorithms, programming
Published: 2024-06-16 17:34:27

330\. Patching Array

Hard

Given a sorted integer array `nums` and an integer `n`, add/patch elements to the array such that any number in the range `[1, n]` inclusive can be formed by the sum of some elements in the array.

Return _the minimum number of patches required_.

**Example 1:**

- **Input:** `nums = [1,3]`, `n = 6`
- **Output:** 1
- **Explanation:**
  - Combinations of nums are `[1]`, `[3]`, `[1,3]`, which form possible sums of: `1`, `3`, `4`.
  - Now if we add/patch `2` to `nums`, the combinations are: `[1]`, `[2]`, `[3]`, `[1,3]`, `[2,3]`, `[1,2,3]`.
  - Possible sums are `1`, `2`, `3`, `4`, `5`, `6`, which now covers the range `[1, 6]`.
  - So we only need 1 patch.

**Example 2:**

- **Input:** `nums = [1,5,10]`, `n = 20`
- **Output:** 2
- **Explanation:** The two patches can be `[2, 4]`.

**Example 3:**

- **Input:** `nums = [1,2,2]`, `n = 5`
- **Output:** 0 

**Constraints:**

- <code>1 <= nums.length <= 1000</code>
- <code>1 <= nums[i] <= 10<sup>4</sup></code>
- `nums` is sorted in **ascending order**.
- <code>1 <= n <= 2<sup>31</sup> - 1</code>


**Solution:**

```
class Solution {

    /**
     * @param Integer[] $nums
     * @param Integer $n
     * @return Integer
     */
    function minPatches($nums, $n) {
        $ans = 0;
        $i = 0;
        $miss = 1;
         while ($miss <= $n) {
            if ($i < count($nums) && $nums[$i] <= $miss) {
                $miss += $nums[$i++];
            } else {
                $miss += $miss;
                ++$ans;
            }
        }
        return $ans;
    }
}
```

Unlock the Secret Side of Your Phone with Android 15’s Private Space🤫🤫
Published: 2024-06-16 17:25:54

Meet Android 15’s coolest new feature: Private Space. Think of it as your own hidden corner of your phone, where everything you do stays completely private!🫢. Whether you’re working with sensitive documents, browsing without leaving a trace, or just wanting to keep certain apps and info separate, Private Space has got you covered. It’s easy to switch between your main phone and your Private Space, giving you peace of mind that your secrets are safe and sound. Enjoy ultimate privacy and security with Android 15’s Private Space, and take control of your digital life like never before.

Private space uses a separate user profile, and when it’s locked, the profile is paused, so the apps in it are no longer active. You can choose to use the device lock or a separate lock factor for Private space, and its apps show up in a separate container in the launcher. They’re also hidden from the recent view, notifications, settings, and from other apps when the Private space is locked.

User generated and downloaded media and files and accounts are separated between the Private space and the main space. You can use the system share sheet and the photo picker to give apps access to content across spaces, but only when the Private space is unlocked.

With Android 15, Google promises smoother transitions. Also new is the fact that apps won’t be able to run in an active, foreground state, for more than six hours, to prevent pointless battery draining. There’s a more efficient software decoder for AV1 too, that can be used when hardware decoding isn’t supported.

Apps can highlight only the most recently selected photos and videos when they’ve received partial access to media permissions, which can improve your experience with apps that frequently request access to photos and videos.

Additionally, there are changes that protect you from malicious background apps, as they are prevented from bringing other apps to the foreground, elevating their privileges, and “abusing user interaction”. This is done in order to protect from malicious apps that launch another app’s activity, then overlay themselves on top, creating the illusion of being the non-malicious app that they started.

Android 15 is now available to download on a range of devices from Android partners including Lenovo, Nothing, Oppo, Honor, Xiaomi and, of course, Google itself (i.e. the best Pixel phones).
