Python Standard Library with example

 The Python Standard Library is a collection of modules that come bundled with the Python programming language. These modules cover a wide range of functionalities, making it easier for developers to perform various tasks without having to write everything from scratch. Let's explore some examples of using modules from the Python Standard Library:

1. `math` module - Mathematical functions:

```python
import math

# Calculate the square root of a number
x = 25
sqrt_x = math.sqrt(x)
print(sqrt_x)  # Output: 5.0

# Calculate the factorial of a number
n = 5
factorial_n = math.factorial(n)
print(factorial_n)  # Output: 120

# Calculate the value of pi
pi_value = math.pi
print(pi_value)  # Output: 3.141592653589793
```

2. `random` module - Generate random numbers:

```python
import random

# Generate a random integer between 1 and 10 (inclusive)
random_number = random.randint(1, 10)
print(random_number)

# Generate a random floating-point number between 0 and 1
random_float = random.random()
print(random_float)
```

3. `datetime` module - Date and time handling:

```python
from datetime import datetime

# Get the current date and time
current_datetime = datetime.now()
print(current_datetime)  # Output: 2023-07-26 14:30:00.123456

# Formatting date and time
formatted_datetime = current_datetime.strftime("%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S")
print(formatted_datetime)  # Output: 2023-07-26 14:30:00
```

4. `os` module - Operating system interface:

```python
import os

# Get the current working directory
current_dir = os.getcwd()
print(current_dir)

# List all files and directories in the current directory
files_and_dirs = os.listdir()
print(files_and_dirs)
```

5. `json` module - Working with JSON data:

```python
import json

# JSON data as a string
json_data = '{"name": "John", "age": 30, "city": "New York"}'

# Convert JSON string to a Python dictionary
data_dict = json.loads(json_data)
print(data_dict)

# Convert Python dictionary to a JSON string
json_str = json.dumps(data_dict)
print(json_str)
```

These are just a few examples of the many modules available in the Python Standard Library. The Standard Library provides solutions for tasks related to data manipulation, file handling, networking, regular expressions, threading, and much more. It is highly recommended to explore the Python documentation to discover the full capabilities of the Standard Library.

Web Programming: HTML, DHTML, XML, Scripting, Java, Servlets, Applets

 Web programming encompasses various technologies and concepts used to develop web applications. Let's explore each of them in detail: 1. HTML (Hypertext Markup Language): HTML is the standard markup language used to create the structure and content of web pages. It uses tags to define elements like headings, paragraphs, images, links, forms, etc. Example: ```html <!DOCTYPE html> <html> <head>     <title>My Web Page</title> </head> <body>     <h1>Hello, World!</h1>     <p>This is a paragraph.</p>     <img src="image.jpg" alt="Image">     <a href="https://www.example.com">Visit Example</a> </body> </html> ``` 2. DHTML (Dynamic HTML): DHTML is a combination of HTML, CSS, and JavaScript that allows web pages to become more dynamic and interactive. Example (DHTML with JavaScript): ```html <!DOCTYPE html> <htm...

Tokens, Identifiers, Data Types, Sequence Control, Subprogram Control, Arrays, Structures, Union, String, Pointers, Functions, File Handling, Command Line Argumaents, Preprocessors in C with example

 Let's discuss each concept briefly and provide examples for better understanding: 1. Tokens: Tokens are the smallest building blocks in C programming. They include keywords, identifiers, constants, strings, operators, and punctuators. Example: ```c #include <stdio.h> int main() {     int num = 42;  // 'int', 'main', 'return', '42', '=', ';' are tokens     printf("Hello, World!");  // 'printf', '(', ')', 'Hello, World!', ';', are tokens     return 0;  // 'return', '0', ';' are tokens } ``` 2. Identifiers: Identifiers are names used to identify variables, functions, or other user-defined entities. Example: ```c int age = 30;  // 'age' is an identifier (variable name) void displayMessage() {  // 'displayMessage' is an identifier (function name)     // function body } ``` 3. Data Types: Data types define the type of data that can be stored in ...

Place holder and control character in c language

 In the C programming language, placeholders and control characters are used to format and control the output of text in console-based programs. They are special characters or sequences of characters that have specific meanings. Here are the placeholders and control characters commonly used in C: 1. Placeholders:    - %d: Used to display signed integers.      Example: printf("The value is %d", 10);    - %u: Used to display unsigned integers.      Example: printf("The value is %u", 10);    - %f: Used to display floating-point numbers.      Example: printf("The value is %f", 3.14);    - %c: Used to display characters.      Example: printf("The character is %c", 'A');    - %s: Used to display strings (sequence of characters).      Example: printf("The string is %s", "Hello");    - %p: Used to display memory addresses (pointers)...
