SyntaxDB — A Perfect Programming Syntax “Search Engine” For Coders | Padsa Information

SyntaxDB calls itself a programming syntax database that wishes to eliminate the need to use Google to search syntax during coding. It allows you to search your syntax queries and shows you helpful results along with further documentation. Currently, SyntaxDB supports nine popular programming languages.
Very often programmers new to the field ask if is it okay to use Google and Stack Overflow to look up some syntax. The answer is yes — searching the web is a routine task of a good developer and its frequency even increases with time. Using Google doesn’t make you a bad programmer. Instead, it makes you even better at it and teaches you new things.
To make things even easier for programmers, Anthony Nguyen, a software developer studying at Queen’s University, has created SyntaxDB.
This website calls itself the programming syntax database and allows you to search your required query. Nguyen calls it helpful for those who often visit Google to look for their programming related queries.
The website’s home page is very simple and plain. You just need to enter a language or a concept, and it starts showing relevant suggestions. As soon as you hit enter, a search result page is shown to address your query.
Once you click on a concept, you are shown a small definition and syntax along with some related notes and examples. In the right sidebar, there are links to the official documentations for more help.
Currently, SyntaxDB supports 9 languages — Java, C, C++, C#, Python, Ruby, JavaScript, Swift, and Go.
SyntaxDB also offers integrations with DuckDuckGo, Slack, and Visual Studio Code to make coding easier. There’s also an API available that lets you write your own integration.
In future, the website plans to provide more plugins for code editors and increase the size of the database and the number of programming languages.

Why should you choose java as your primary programming language | Padsa Information

Java is a high-level object oriented programming language and computing platform developed by Sun Microsystems and released in 1995. With more than 9 million developers worldwide, java enables us to develop and deploy applications and services.
From laptops to data centers, game consoles to super computers and cell phones to the Internet, java is everywhere.
Why Choose java?
Although there are many reasons why a software developer choose java, below are some of the popular reasons:
  • Develop software on one platform and deploy it on virtually any other platform.
  • Create programs that can run in a web browser and access available web services.
  • Develop server-side applications like online stores, polls, image galleries, form processing and more.
  • Create powerful applications for mobile phones and other embedded devices.
JRE provides the run-time engine JVM along with the class libraries which contains the predefined functionality.
Using JDK programmers can create and run Java programs. But with JRE alone, programmers or users can only run already compiled Java programs. We cannot create Java programs using only JRE.
The JVM specification is a document which contains formal information about what a JVM implementation should contain. A single specification allows various interoperable implementations.


What should I know before moving further?
Although no technical details about programming languages are needed, you should have knowledge regarding basic concepts like what is a program, programming, use of programming languages etc. This java tutorial is developed in such way that it allows beginners or starters to understand every concept with as less effort as needed.
Although no knowledge is required regarding other programming languages, familiarity with C or C++ allows you to learn the java concepts faster.

Intended Audience
This java tutorial is intended for beginners or starters who are new to java. It will also act as a guide for novice programmers and experienced programmers to recollect the use of various core concepts in Java.

How To Pick Your First Programming Language (4 Different Ways)

Learning coding from scratch could be a tough task and it could take years of hard work to master a language. So here I am going to address the biggest problem a beginner faces: How to pick up my first programming language?
Recently I came across with a very enriching infographic that addressed the same question. Udacity has utilized the date of the top ten programming languages in the US (provided by IEEE Spectrum) to pick the best programming language for you as a beginner.
The basis on which this infographic is made varies from location, your lifestyle and the potential growth in career after selecting that particular language.
Based on the flexibility, Python or C++ comes first as it allows you work on the variety of fields such as gaming to making of embedded systems. JS or PHP prepares you for a web development career. Similar observations and trends are made based on the average pay per year, geography and popularity.
Take a look at the infographic below:

What are the some of the best programming tips and tricks | Padsa Information

  • Readability is the path to more interesting projects within a career.
  • Readability is the path to knowing what you wrote 5 years ago, and makes code reuse actually viable
  • Readability is the path to acquiring protégées that can learn from your style.
  • Readability that is understandable by others allows people to appreciate your code at a level of architecture, not just functional.
  • Readability is the path of lease resistance when you have a bug in your code.
  • Readability is the how you put ideas into understandable text and syntax, much like writing a paragraph in natural language.
  • Readability is somehow not a priority for most other developers, however it’s probably pretty important to your development director, if you work for one.
  • Readability is more important than most believe. With moore’s law, it’s even more important to focus on readability than pre-mature optimization.
Here’s more:
  • Most schools and colleges teach computer science like trade school skills. How to fix a car. How to be a dental assistant. How to be an admin.
  • Most schools and colleges don’t realize there’s a difference between Computer Science and Programming. These are different.
  • Most of the people applying for job in California are Programmers, when the job actually requires a Computer Scientist.
  • Most people only know one or three programming languages. I personally believe you need to know between 7–8 of them to really master the idea of programming.
Psychology wise?
  • Most programmers are very insecure about their programming skills and end up in bandwagon debates over which programming language is better.
  • Following that, most don’t realize that each programming language is just a tool that’s better at something while other is better at something else… Like speaking Spanish while in Spain, or knowing Chinese in the middle of China down. Right tools for the job.
  • Most programmers are habituated to just google everything, that’s how they were taught.
  • Most insecure programmers rave about how “compact” their code is. Which serves very little purpose on compiled languages.
  • Most insecure programmers focus on hyper tuning a few lines of code. Good programmers focus on delivering functional and useable software.
Habits….
  • Most programmers follow the syntax and structure of the style they were taught. Very few question the style they were taught. Examples are {’s on the if-statement line, or on the next line vertically aligned with the }.
  • Most programmers don’t make diagrams before they begin experimenting. Many just copy some existing example and start their modifications from there (which runs the risk of adopting bugs from existing examples).
  • Most programmers don’t unit test. They believe they are better than that, or they are lazy.
  • Most programmers read xkcd.
  • Programmers that are computer scientists are better at computational problems.
What most don’t realize about computer science (as opposed to only programming.)
  • You can merge sort your socks.
  • You can apply scalability methods of algorithms to work labor level processes to improve business efficiency.
  • You can learn other fields and industries because CS is a catalyze for industries like physics, chemistry, rendering, etc…
  • You can apply CS methods to accounting, management, logistics, market trends, human resource management, workflow processing engineering, etc…
  • Computer science has philosophies within it that can change your mode of thinking.
Lots and lots. It’s amazing what you can do if you pay attention to the computer science bit, rather than only how to program software.
Computer science includes:
  • Hardware
  • Software
  • Programming
  • Algorithms
  • Problem solving
  • Efficiency measurement methods
  • Stability methods
  • Integration concepts
  • Computer architecture
And most importantly….
  • Computer Science History
You learn to appreciate these things when you take in CS and listen in beyond only the programming trade skill.
Either you are a viable employee… Or you’re an amazing one that could hold a position of technical leadership.
