how it's going in the compsci study sessions

[krakenartificer]

When I got my ADHD diagnosis, I looked at the questions on the screening form and thought, "If this result comes back positive, then I'm definitely not the only person in my family who has it." Questions like

"Have difficulty finishing one activity before starting another one" and

"I finish others' sentences before they can finish it themselves" and

"have trouble staying on one topic when talking"

...I thought were just weird quirks of my family, but no. When I got my results, I contacted my cousin, and she contacted her sisters and mother, and .. .. yeah. Basically everyone in my dad's side of the family is ADHD.

Now there are some problems with that, obviously, (getting family reunions to stick to a schedule is lol no) but there are some really fantastic perks. For one thing, no one in that family minds if I interrupt them while they're talking ... everyone's happy to keep 3 conversations going at the same time .... and no one minds if you fidget constantly.

But the best perk -- at least that I've found so far -- is that all of our parents have coping mechanisms, and passed them on to us. When I found myself unable to handle tasks with more than one step, my father didn't say "WTF are you talking about? It's easy! Just do the thing! Stop being lazy!" No, he could relate completely, and he sat down and taught me how to handle that.

So today, I'm going to pass on to you the coping mechanism my dad taught me for handling the "cannot put tasks in order / cannot get started / forget what I'm doing" problem. You'll need to adjust it for your own needs and your own struggles, but hopefully it'll be helpful in setting up your own process.

I'm going to walk through it with a big project I'm doing at work, just to have a concrete example. That will make some of the discussion specific to computer programming and technical writing, but I do the same thing for all my projects, so hopefully it'll be generalizable.

So to set the stage:

I was supposed to modify this piece of code -- we'll call it "Rosetta" -- to make it handle call data as well as what it was already doing. I did that.... but we now need the code to be able to handle calls (if that's wanted) but also to be able to handle NOT having calls (if THAT'S wanted).

Which is just .... ugh. So much. SOOOOOOOO much.

So. Break it down.

Step one is to get some recording mechanism - pen and paper, whiteboard, blank computer document, whatever

(Technically, this is a different coping strategy, so we'll just take a quick detour: WRITE THINGS DOWN. Your brain is shit at remembering things, and anyway you've already got limits on your working memory; why would you choose to tie up some of that limited resource in something that could be accomplished with literal stone-age technology? Don't even try to remember things. WRITE THEM DOWN.)

I like sticky notes: they're readily available in all offices, they're pretty cheap, and (most importantly) they can be rearranged if it turns out that I forgot a step or put the steps in the wrong order (which, like, let's be honest, I am definitely going to do). But they kill trees and create unnecessary methane emissions, so I've recently switched over to using virtual sticky notes. That's the format I'm going to use for this example, but you can use anything that meets your purposes.

So, you've got something to write with, you're ready to start.

The first question is: what are you trying to accomplish here? What would "done" look like? What is our goal?

I need to end up with a version of Rosetta that will make the correct results if you don't want calls, and will also make the correct results if you do.

The goal here is that you end up with a statement that you can definitively say (a) Yes this is what I wanted or (b)No this is not right because _______

In this case, in order to do that, I'll need to define "correct results" for both call- and non-call versions. But if I have that nailed down, then this statement meets that criterion: I'll be able to say "Yes, this is what I wanted: see, it makes the correct result for calls, and it makes the correct result for not-calls". Or else I'll be able to say, "No, this is wrong: see, it makes the correct result for calls, but on not-calls it does X and we wanted Y."

I have a clear, definitive standard about what I need to do and whether or not I've done it.

But there was a prerequisite there: I need to define "correct results".

So that goes on a sticky note: Create test that will compare my results to existing call!Rosetta-results and to existing not-call!Rosetta-results.

[ID: Two blue boxes, one on top of the other. The top one says in white text "Create test to compare my results to call!results" The bottom one says "Create test to compare my results to not-call!results"] OK. So now we know what we want. The second question is: what do we need to do in order to get that? Here's where the sticky-note recording system really shines, because you don't have to answer this question sequentially. You just start writing down every single thing that is not the way you want it to end up.

I need it to remove commas in the python script, not the bash script

I need to delete the first part of the get_runs() function, which doesn't do anything

I need to delete the rest of the parameters passed to build_query_script() function, because runs encompasses all the others

while we're on that subject, runs doesn't even need the group_variable, so let's pull that out of the parameter document

we also have a dmf defined, which the bash script demands but doesn't use; let's change that demand

since we're changing the structure of the parameter document, we don't need to pull new metrics for each run, so let's move that outside of the runs() loop and only run once

right now the parameter document is ALMOST but not quite "one row per template". Make it so it's actually one row per template.

among other things, that's going to require making it possible for a template to be followed by nothing at all, since it's the assumption that a template will have a metrics block after it that makes it not quite one row per template. So make it possible to publish a template with a null block

the other thing that's weirdly hard-coded is the definition of what a block looks like. Would it make more sense to separate that out into an input file, like the parameters document? On the one hand, that would make it much more flexible; on the other hand, that's another piece that can break. Don't know. Put a question mark on it.

etc

Here's what it looks like at the end of this step:

[ID: A black and white background showing many boxes in two different shades of blue, all with white text. Some of the boxes are overlapping each other.]

As you can see, at this phase you don't need to worry about any of the following:

ordering the tasks. Just stick 'em right on top of each other for now

how you're going to do any of this. Right now we just need to know what, not how

sticking to only one project. As I was working on this, it occurred to me that this whole process would have been a heck of a lot easier if someone had just made a user manual for this, and since I have to go through all the code line-by-line anyway, I might as well write up the documentation while I'm at it. (To help out future-me, if nothing else.) So I put those tasks on another color of sticky note.

making notes that make any ***ing sense to anyone else. This process is for you, and only you need to understand what you're talking about it. Phrase it in ways that make sense to your brain, and to hell with anyone else.

on that topic, also don't worry about making steps that are "too small" or "too dumb" to write down. This is for you. If "save document" feels like a step to you, then write it down.

You also don't need to get every single step involved in the project right now. Get as many as you can, to be sure, but the process is designed on the assumption that you ARE going to forget important steps, and is designed to handle that.

When you can't think of any more steps, then the third question is: what order does it make sense to do these in? Are there any steps that would be easier if you did another step first? Are there any that literally cannot be done unless another step is complete?

This is also a good place to group steps if they fit together nicely. When I used physical sticky notes, I used two different sizes; digitally I can of course make them whatever size I want.

So I have several documentation steps that (a) do need to be written to make sense to other people and (b) I really need to know what's going on before I can do that. I could write them now, but if I did, I'd just end up re-writing them based on things that change as I'm coding. So we'll move those to the end:

[ID: Three dark blue boxes with white text. They read "Create step-by-step instructions for creating your own metric agg", "Create step-by-step instructions for modifying a metric", "Create step-by-step instructions for modifying a query."]

These parts, though -- if I had all the variable structures written down, I could look at them while I'm coding. Then I won't have to keep scrolling back and forth in the code, trying to remember if it's an array or a dictionary while also trying to remember what part of the code I was working on. Brilliant. Move that to the front.

[ID: Seven dark blue boxes with white text, three large, four small. The first one is large and says "Write up explanation of how Rosetta works." The second one is large and says "Document structure of all variables." Attached to that one are four smaller boxes that say "All_blocks", "Runs", "metric", "New_block". The third large one says "Document what qb_parameters.csv contains"]

Also, while I'm at it, I should get the list of variables I need to document -- then I won't have to keep scrolling to find them. Make those sub-steps.

I definitely keep needing to look up what's in the parameters document, so I should write that down, too. For the user manual I also should write down what's in the metric document, but I don't need that for myself, so I can send that to the end.

[ID: The same three dark blue boxes from two screenshots ago (create step-by-step instructions for metric agg, modifying a metric, and modifying a query), now with another dark blue box in front of them with white text that says "Document what granular_metrics.tsv contains."]

These five are all small steps, and are all related in that they don't actually (hopefully) change the functionality of the code; they're just stuff left over from prior versions of this code. So we can lump them all together.

[ID: Five light blue boxes with white text that say "Delete first part of get_runs()", "Have build_query_script only receive the "run" parameter" "Delete dmf" "Move metrics=get_metrics() outside build_all_blocks (all the way up to the top level?" "Delete group_variable from qp_parameters"]

My brain likes this better, so that I can keep track of fewer "main steps", but that's just a peculiarity of me -- you should lump and split however you prefer to make this process easier for you.

[ID: The same five boxes from the prior screenshot, now all made smaller and attached to a larger box that says "Remove Legacy Code"]

Keep going, step by step, sticky by sticky, until you've got them in order. If -- while you're doing this -- you remember another thing you need to do, write it on a sticky and slap it on the pile; you don't have to stop what you're doing to deal with it, because it's written down and it's on the pile and it will get processed; you can just keep working on the thing you're on right now.

[ID: All the same boxes from the first screenshot, now in a neat row. Some of the original boxes have been grouped together. The ones that were said to be at the beginning of the process are on the left and the ones that were said to be at the end are on the right.]

Step four: for the love of all that's holy, SAVE THIS LIST.

Write it on your cubicle whiteboard where it won't be erased

write it on a piece of paper and tape it to the office wall

send an email to yourself

take a picture with your phone

I don't care but save it.

When I used physical sticky notes, I kept them all on the hood of my cubicle's shelf. Now, as you can see, I use Powerpoint, which is irritating af but does allow me to keep everything in a single document, which I can write down the path of.

[ID: White text on a black background says "open ~/Documents/Rosetta\ Modifications\ and \Documentation.pptx" The next line says "Notes in Rocketbook pg 10-12, 16" The next line says "Turn that into documentation that can be used for making modifications."]

And now (finally) you can answer the question "How would I even get started on that?" You look at the first thing on the list, and you treat it as its own project. You can hyperfocus on this step and completely forget about everything else this project requires, because everything you need to remember for the rest of it is written down.

If, as you're working a step, you think of something else you need to do for the big project, write it on a sticky and slap it on the pile. Don't even worry about trying to order it or identify sub-steps; as long as it's not blocking the thing you need to work on right now, you don't have to care. Just stick that bugger anywhere at all on the list, and go back to what you were doing. When you un-hyperfocus and come back to look at your list, there'll be a big sticky note stuck sideways across all the rest of the steps, and you'll remember to file and order it then.

Other benefits of this system

1) The first question really helps with unclear directions from your boss. You can take whatever they told you to do, and translate it into a requirement that is clearly either met or not-met, and then run it back by the boss.

If they say, "No, no, we want ______" then phew! You just saved a huge miscommunication and weeks of wasted work! What a good employee you are! What an excellent team player with strong communication skills!

If they say "Yes, that's what I want," then you know -- for sure -- what it is you're trying to accomplish. Your anxiety is reduced, and your boss thinks you're super-conscientious.

(And if your boss is a jerk who likes to move the goalposts and blame it on their subordinates, then have this conversation over email, so you can show it to their boss or to HR should it become necessary.)

2) Having this project map means that when you spend an hour staring at the requirements and trying to figure out how to get started (which, let's be honest, you were definitely going to do anyway) ... When your boss/coworker comes by and says, "How's it going?" Instead of having to say "I haven't even started 😞" You can say, "Pretty well! I've got all the steps mapped out and am getting ready to start on implementation!" and show them your list, and they think you're very organized and meticulous. 3) Sometimes, especially in corporate jobs, you and your coworkers will run into a problem that's too big for even Neurotypicals to hold all in their heads. At that point, the NTs will be completely lost -- they've never had to develop a way to handle projects they can't just look at and know how to get started. So then you pipe up in the meeting and say, "OK, well, what exactly are we trying to accomplish?" and everybody at the conference table looks at you like you're a goddamned genius and you don't have to tell them that you use this exact same process to remember how to make a sandwich 😅

4) Having this project map makes it so much easier to stop work and then start it up again later, but this post is already really really really long, so I'm going to address that in a separate (really really long) post.

Summary: Or Ye Xiu is forced to deal with his fans. No one saw what was coming next.Because the alliance wants more exposure (i.e. fame) for the pro gamers, all pros are mandated to respond to questions from the fans.Naturally, this leads to some…strange conversations and some stranger answers. Likely will lead into AU TKA UniversePart Story, and TKA fun. Will include some social media.

Chapter #3: When Ye Qiu (The Real One) Reads

XXxxxxxXX

The familiar cadence of Glory keyboard inputs echoed throughout the room. There was a lull in activity as everyone waited for the next scheduled dungeon raid to happen or for a wild boss to appear. Some members were doing light exercises, some were napping, while others were just surfing the net, and others were eating some snacks. There were quite a few members of the guild gathered in the room, but most of them were around one computer. They had odd looks on their faces as they glanced back and forth between the screen and Ye Xiu but none of them said a word to the person in question.

While most in Excellent Era knew about Ye Xiu's AMA, few beyond the core team had spoken to him about it. To most members of Excellent Era, Ye Xiu was an existence that was beyond all of them. Seasoned and renowned as the current champion, few dared to interact with him feeling themselves unworthy of his presence. Normal staff in the building had rarely even spoken a word to him, and although no one had said they needed to read his AMA on Reddit many of them found themselves drawn to the page wondering perhaps if they might finally be able to glimpse something of their resident god.

To their collective shock and laughter, Ye Qiu was so completely different then many of them had imagined. Where they had once seen cold arrogance, and disregard, many of them began to realize that Ye Qiu was simply very blunt and perhaps somewhat out of touch of social interactions. Yes, he was blunter then many of them were accustomed to but that didn't mean he wasn't kind. Little by little stories were being shared of deeds he had done for others, either secretly or directly for other people. There had been rumors before, but because no one had come out and said anything. People were coming out and telling stories about Ye Qiu reaching out and helping people. Former pros had even chimed in, telling stories of him lending them money to get back on their feet, stories of him cleaning up training rooms, and buying food for some of the poorer trainees.

Ye Qiu was becoming more real and human in a way many of the staff had forgotten. Ye Qiu was no longer some untouchable god and to many that comforted them. Ye Qiu may have won championships, but that didn't mean he thought himself better than them. He cared about the people of Excellent Era beyond winning trophies.

(When Ye Qiu asked to play Glory with the janitor of Excellent Era a few days later, no one said anything, but it was clear from the atmosphere in the room that the tone of Excellent Era had shifted.)

Yin Ming was an up and coming hire to Excellent Era's Research and Development Department yet despite being new she was well connected. Hiding a smirk, she glanced around the office beside her, and at some of her coworkers, thankfully there was no one else in the room. Yet even from her position at the back of the room, she could see that most of her coworkers were all looking at the same page. She did not doubt that they were reading on the latest newsletter but just to be sure she sure that no one could see her computer screen she moved her desk a few inches to the right.  At the current angle, she was at it was impossible to see her computer screen from the door but just in case she made sure that Guan Rongfei was still working in front of the room so even if someone from administration tried to entered they'd only the disaster that was Guan Rongfei and retreat.

Smiling, Yin Ming took a seat at her desk and switched on her computer. She clicked into her email and looking over her inbox she searched through her mail. After a tense five minutes of searching and wondering if perhaps she hadn’t been sent the most recent copy, she finally stumbled upon what she was looking for. Clicking on it, she got comfortable in her chair to read the current gossip.

Praise me, everyone, on the internet, for I have the news!

Check it out! ⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️

Ye Qiu is at it again.

Last week he brought little Mucheng some breakfast and nearly all the trainees had a heart attack. It was glorious.

I know most of the readers are like, “Why is this important?" Well, to all my readers here’s the reason why. He stayed for a few hours teaching all the trainees and no one knew who he was. Because no one has seen him without his mask on but still. He smiled and was like “I’m a little good at this game” as if the captain of a three times winning team is only a little good. Anyways he then proceeded to defeat everyone once and then spent like twenty minutes going over their matches to help them improve.

That's when Yao Wang appeared (late as always!) and he was not pleased about Ye Qiu's presence, but not for the right reasons. He started going off on Ye Qiu about how he was going to ruin the trainees’ careers with his careless advice and Ye Qiu just stood there blinking. It was like he blue screened out of pure confusion.[1] And then guess who walks into the room but Wu Xuefeng himself.

Wu Xuefeng takes one look at the situation and at Yao Wang trying and failing to tear to Ye Qiu to bits before he calmly steps in between the pair and says quite calmly that “Ye Qiu would never give bad advice to anyone playing Glory” and the entire room goes silent. Because if the vice-captain of Excellent Era says that the young teen behind him is indeed Ye Qiu, no one is going to says he's wrong. And that just makes it worse because it's Ye Qiu the resident God of Excellent Era.

Yao Wang looks like he swallowed a lemon (good, that man deserves it. He's so sexist that everyone, including the guys, hates him anyway) and walks out of the room runs away and Wu Xuefeng makes a couple calls before manager Shaolin Tao appears and apologizes for the trouble because obviously someone messed up if no one knows what their resident god looks like.

But the most surprising part has yet to be revealed!

As Ye Qiu walked out of the room, he turns to tell Shaolin Tao that the AC would get fixed later that day. (I don't think I need to remind everyone about that damn AC in the lower half of the building that hasn’t gotten fixed in so long and that upper management refused to believe that it needed to be repaired.) Shaolin Tao nearly looked like he wanted to vanish into the floor. Because it was just so embarrassing and the old man had just resigned himself to the fact that the AC might not get fixed in time for summer, and here comes Ye Qiu and he's all like "this is a problem" and does something about it.

But it gets even juicer.

Ye Qiu paid for the repairs himself like it was no big deal.

I've attached the receipt as proof (the same one that was submitted to Tao Xuan later as evidence) in case there are doubters. (I've blocked out all the sensitive information but the signature is no lie.)

                                            Comments:

KumoCloudEE: Boss Tao did reimburse YQ for the repairs if I'm not mistaken. But he was pretty upset that it was an issue for some reason. 😕😕😕😕😕 Whatever the rest of this was cool.

FanningCameraRD: This is the kind of content I needed in my life. YQ being all "baam this going to change" is like the best thing ever.

SquareDukeEE: I will admit I used to think YQ was some kind of an arrogant jerk, but I can't help but think he's just an awkward turtle. But his gameplay is completely fox-like though.

ChalkydeclareRD: YQ being a fox is something I could totally see. How dare you do this to me upstairs.

    CandycreamSeekerEE: Hey, PR department got an idea I think you should hear. ⬆️⬆️⬆️⬆️⬆️

HawkStarryTrainee: Um, so just how did this whole thing lead to Yao Wang being fired??? I wasn't present for that part.

TiktokDropEE:⭐ Well, here's the general outline. I heard it from one of the building maintenance dudes. Apparently, after the mess that went down in the Training Camp Room #1, Wu Xuefeng paid a visit to Tao Xuan and had a rather pointed conversation. It was serious enough to get a bunch of pencil pushers to gather up some paperwork because immediately after that a group of secretaries and IT people were called into the room. Something about misfiled paperwork???? I don't know. But afterward, Yao Wang left with his stuff and he was sooooo angry. ⭐ [Comment has been starred.]

CranberryCookieSD: The paperwork in question was trainee results. I think it was wrong somehow? I'm not sure. I don't play Glory enough to understand what apm and so on means.

PersonaClueEE: It was trainee paperwork. Normally it was always signed off by Yao Wang and then submitted to Shaolin Tao for record-keeping. So if it was wrong in any way it affects Excellent Era's team placement, advancement, and contracts. If I had to guess Yao Wang may have been either inflating or deflating results, perhaps even going so far as completely lying on the forms. It's hard to tell.

EvaTreeTeaEE: Then that explains it.

BohrPieEE: Someone please connect the dots because I am so lost.

EvaTreeTeaEE: 🌟 Alright, so here's the full story near as I can tell. YQ goes to Training Room #1 for whatever reason, and Yao Wang appears and starts yelling at him. Then WXF enters and stops the yelling making Yao Wang leave. Then either because of this or in addition to this WXF goes to Boss Tao and tries to figure out how such a huge mistake happened i.e. Yao Wang not recognize YQ and the AC was broken and somehow no one knew. So paperwork is brought out to figure out who messed up and throughout this, it is discovered that Yao Wang was slanting all the trainees in some form. I'm assuming he was downplaying female players (considering his attitude) or was maybe inflating the performance of the male trainees, either way, it comes out and now everything needs to re-evaluated and its a huge mess. So quite a few people probably got in trouble because they were supposed to be checking on this sort of thing, and the fact that nothing was done probably has made upper management SUPER angry. I don't know if this will lead to other people being fired but so far Yao Wang was the only person fired, and as far as most of us care that makes the workplace 3000% better. He was a total sexist jerk. Whatever, this is as near as I can guess but there was probably more we don't know because of privacy/reputation reasons. 🌟 [Comment has been super starred.]

DaybreakFrontlineEE: Wow nice analysis! 😮😮😮😮😮😮😮

DDDLeeEE: Can confirm that no one else is going to get fired, but a few people were demoted/paycheck cut.

satisfactionstirringEE: Wow what a mess.

To say that Ye Qiu, brother of Ye Xiu knew nothing of games, would be a lie but unlike his brother who was a professional gamer, but Ye Qiu himself knew little.

When the brothers were younger and still living together, they often played together huddled around a small Gameboy from one of their trips to Japan. They didn't have many games for it even then, but it was one of the rare times they did anything together before the demands of their parents were too heavy. So Ye Qiu while not an expert in gaming knew a little bit about the world his brother worked in.

Typing in the name 'Glory' into the search bar, Ye Qiu was a little shocked to see how many results came up. Thinking for a second, he typed in his name and the word 'Glory' to the search bar and sat in to read. As his day off there was little to interrupt him, and considering he had given his secretary the day off, he was a little reluctant to bother her.

At least not yet.

Though depending on what he found out he may change his mind.

Scrolling down on some Wikipedia pages for his brother (because it had to be his stupid brother considering the characters used for the name) Ye Qiu read carefully about his brother. While he knew that his brother was famous he had little idea what being a professional gamer meant. He had had no idea that game could generate income and considering his brother was considered the top player there was little reason he shouldn't be earning top dollar.

Reading to the bottom of the page, Ye Qiu was surprised to see several new links attached to the page.

Clicking into them Ye Qiu was quiet for several minutes before his face went red and he moved passed some of the utter nonsense his brother had written. He just couldn't believe how ridiculous his brother was. As it was, Ye Qiu was seeing quite a few references to himself and their family however vague they might be to everyone else in the world.

Any other stranger might not be able to understand what his brother was getting at, but seeing some of his brother's response was a little embarrassing, Ye Qiu clicked off to the side inadvertently clicking open a comments section before he froze.

There were some usernames he recognized in the comments section and knowing the rest of his family, Ye Qiu was almost afraid to connect the dots on what he was thinking.

Reaching for his phone, Ye Qiu moved off of the chat between him and his brother and moved into the general family chat and typed in a single question. While he waited impatiently for the reply, Ye Qiu could help but think he was wrong and his suspicions were just the result of an overactive imagination, but at he stared at the letters in black and white he couldn't convince himself otherwise.

And then the reply came, and Ye Qiu groaned.

Of course, he was right.

Moving back into the chat with his brother Ye Qiu typed out eight words. His face moving through different emotions before he reached for his laptop and typed out a rather long email to his secretary.

What a mess.

Their parents were not going to be happy when this finally came out.

Author’s Notes: 

General EE Staff @ Current is a mix of the following: YQ is sassy and a lot more down to earth then we thought. He is funny/awkward/and asdfdgdfgfdfg. Thank you for existing YQ our lives are better because Yao Wang is gone.

EE Team @ Current: The captain is very clueless about social things like fanfiction and we must never tell him about the depravity of fans or else we will all suffer. Also, dodge practice sucks, and WXF may have a shit list of rival players he may want to have a talk to and we know nothing.

1:YX really didn't know who Yao Wang was because he had never seen him before, so he was trying to figure out who he was.

So not a whole lot of YX stuff, but lots of information about things changing among the people of EE. I read over what I could of the wiki and the light novel but there's nothing about when the training camps got started or anything so much of this was just head cannon because I don't know.

Strangely enough, I had most of this chapter written since the middle of January but it still didn't feel right and finally after countless editing and so on I am just throwing in the towel. I'll come back to this particular chapter and probably edit it some more. Maybe.

Learn Google Analytics

Explore Google Analytics: Google analytics is the tool provided by google to Analyze your website as well as user/customer behavior in depth. This will help you in working with SEO ranking your website on the first page of the Search Engine Result Page (SERP). I'll guide you the step by step procedure to start with Google Analytics .

So, let's start with creating an account 1) Sign up for a Google Account (Skip if you already have one) If you don’t have a Google Account you need to get one now to have access to all the free Google tools that are out there. 2) Get your unique tracking code. You will the get the unique tracking code you have to upload that link into head part of your website that will track your website report. a. If it’s your first time logging into Google Analytics read below.  If not, skip to Step 2b If it’s your first time using Google Analytics then before you get your nifty tracking script you will need to answer a couple of questions and accept Google’s terms of service. The first page will ask for your Website URL as seen below: Enter in your Website’s URL in the “www.yourdomain.com” format (*NOTE* If you have a secure site, https, make sure to update it accordingly).  For Account Name enter in whatever you want to call your website or project.  And finally select the correct Time Zone that you are in.  When you’re done, click continue. You will be then be asked to enter in your contact information and accept Google Analytics’s user agreement. After you agree to Google’s terms of service you finally see your nifty tracking code for the specific website URL you previously entered. b. If it’s your NOT your first time logging into Google Analytics. If it’s not your first time logging into Google Analytics simply click on the “Add Website Profile” link at the bottom left of your overview report. On the next page, keep the selection on “Add a Profile for a new domain) and enter in the domain you want to start tracking (*NOTE* If you have a secure site, https, make sure to update it accordingly).  and choose your time zone then click finish. Google Analytics will then create a custom tracking code snippet for your site. Copy your code snippet and click finish.  Read step 3 on how to install it on your website. 3) Installing Your Tracking Code Snippet Now that you have your code snippet we will need to install it on your webpage. In step 2) I instructed you to copy over the code snippet but if you forgot or just didn’t feel like copying it, follow these steps to get your tracking code. a) Go to the Overview page and click on “edit” in the last column of your website profile report: b) Click on the check status link in the top right corner: c) Get your code snippet: Now that you have your code snippet (again), let’s install it! All you need to do now is place your code snippet in every single one of your pages in your website.  The most common mistake is to place the tracking in only your main index.html/php page.

Home Page: “http://www.xyz.com/index.html”

Our Services Page: “http://www.xyz.com/service.html”

About Us Page: “http://www.xyz.com/about.html”

Contact Us Page: “http://www.xyz.com/contact.html”

Thank You Page: “http://www.xyz.com/thankscont.html”

So we need to install our tracking script.  Open your favorite html editor or just open your html/php with notepad and add your tracking script right BEFORE the </body> tag. The </body> tag is usually at the end of your html code.  Do a simple search for “</body>” it in your html editor or notepad to find it.  Then simply place your code before the </body> tag as shown below: Now repeat this process for all of your webpages.  In our instance I placed the code in index.html, service.html, about.html, contact.html, and thankscont.html. After you are done Google Analytics needs some time to go crawl through your webpage to confirm that the scripts are installed.  All you need to do now is wait about 12-24 hours for Google Analytics to Update. Here is what your site’s status will look like when your site isn’t verified: And here is what your site’s status will look like once it’s been crawled through and confirmed to be installed correctly: Once your site is confirmed by Google Analytics your site is now being properly tracked by Google Analytics.  If after 48 hours your site still has not been confirmed.  Please read through Step 3 again and make sure that your code is correctly placed. 4) Adding Goals to Track Conversion. Now that you have the basic tracking installed in your page you now need to set up Google Analytics so you can start tracking conversions. With goals you can figure out how many people did a specific action.  IE. Bought an item, signed up for a newsletter, read a specific page, etc.  For now (as of 03.20.08) Google has a max of 4 goals assigned to each website profile.  You can have more than 4 but that is outside of the scope of this beginner guide. To properly use goals you will need a link to your “goal” page.  A “goal” page can be any page where you want your user to go to.  It can be a thank you page after a user signs up for your newsletter or it can be the receipt page after someone orders a product from your site. To get started with setting up a goal, first go into your Analytics home page and click on “edit”. In the profile settings page two boxes down you should see the “Conversion Goals and Funnel” box.  Click edit on an empty Goal.  If you are new, just click edit on the G1 row: You should now see the Goal Settings Page.  Let’s go over the “Enter Goal Information” section first: Active Goal: This activates/deactives your goals.  So to start turn this goal on by choosing the “On” button. Match Type: There are 3 types of match types.

Head Match: Use this type if your webpage uses dynamic URLs.  For example, let’s say your goal page is an order receipt page and the links look something like this: “www.example.com/checkout.cgi?page=1&id=9982251615” where the &id=XXXXX changes dyamically.

Exact Match: Use this type if your thank you page is a static page such as: “www.domain.com/1/thanks.html”.

Regular Expression Match: This option uses regular expressions to match your URLs.  For many eCommerce website the “thank you” or “receipt” page is a dynamic URL with different pages with OrderID or CustomerID variables and you will need to use this match to track the URL instead of a static domain page.  Using regular expressions with wildcards are out of the scope for this beginner tutorial.  We will write a post specifically tackling the Regular Expresion Match soon.

So choose the correct match depending on your “goal page” Goal URL: Enter the directory and file of your goal page.  DO NOT input your entire http:// link.  Simply just write the directory and file name from your root perspective.  IE.  “http://www.mysite.com/thankyou.html” enter “/thankyou.html” or  “http://www.mysite.com/newpage/thankyou.html”  enter “/newpage/thankyou.html”. Goal Name: This is for your use.  Name the goal to whatever you want. Case Sensitive: Check this if URLs entered above must exactly match the capitalization of visited URLs. Goal Value: Input what each conversion is worth.   Let’s say each newsletter email is worth $0.70 then input that into the goal value.  If there is no static monetary value then you can just leave it as zero. So here is how we filled this out in our example: The next section is the “Define Funnel”.   A funnel is a series of pages that leads up to the goal.  If you have a eCommerce site it may consist of 3-5 steps “checkout –> information input –> CC Page –> Review –> Submit” etc.  You can define these pages in the funnel section to know exactly how your traffic is reaching your goal page and in which steps they are leaving. Seeing the funnel is extremely helpful is realizing how your users traverse through your pages to do the action item.  Make sure to always use this even though it may be only a 1 step process as the funnel system allows you to easily see your true conversions. In our example, we want to know how many people sign up from our contact.html page.  So our Funnel is: contact.html –[If user signs up]–> thankscont.html. So we define the funnel like this: Like the goal URL in the “Enter Goal Information” section make sure not to include the entire link, just the directory and file. Make sure to check the “required steps” if you want to track your real conversions.  When this is checked goals are ONLY counted when the user goals to our contact.html first.  This is important as I’m sure many of our users will go directly to our thank you page in this step by step guide and we don’t want to count those as conversions. Once that’s done, simply click the “Save Changes” button.  Congratulations! You’re now correctly tracking your conversions!

5) Understanding Google Analytics Report.

Now that your site is correctly being tracked, it’s time to see all the cool reports that Google Analytics can show you! (Pretty, isn’t it?) Everything is pretty self explanatory and intuitive so I won’t go through every single reporting link.  The one item that I do want to talk about is the funnel report in the Goals section as it is the most important part in your conversion tracking. First click on the goals tab then the Funnel Visualization link: Once there you will see this: The above example is a pro bono optimization we’re doing for a charity.  We are specifically optimizing their membership page.  The funnel is simply, “Membership Page” –> “Membership Buy Thank You Page” On this day you’ll see that they had 625 visitors go to the membership page and 47 people who bought a membership to this charity organization for a conversion rate of 7.52% which is our true conversion rate. This is the most important page to understand what is going on with your traffic and find out how you can best monetize it as well as find “conversion leaks” if you have multiple pages in your funnel. Now what if we didn’t use the optional funnel and wanted to know our conversions?  This is what we would have seen from this client: We would see a .18% conversion for these days… Why?  Because Google Analytics determines the conversion rate as [Goal Visits / Total Visits to the Website]. This charity organization gets TONS of traffic from all over the place to different pages on their site.  Most people don’t even view the membership page.  So the conversion rate above is incorrect in letting you know how your specific page is converting and you should not rely on this. The only way this report would be correct is if you have just a simple landing page and buy page.

Top 12 Best Factorio Mods []

💾 ►►► DOWNLOAD FILE 🔥🔥🔥 A factory management sandbox game revolving around logistics, production, conveyor belts and insect attacks, Factorio stands out as one of the most successful games in the genre. Released in , the game was a deep and extensive simulation that is still gaining strength and proving ripe for the modding community to modify and expand. These mods are essential to enable their associated mods and help them work properly and in most cases work at all. Therefore, we feel compelled to mention these important mods here without filling our list with different variations of each of them as they would make for a rather boring top Mods that require one or more framework mods will usually mention or link to them in their descriptions and installation instructions. Our list starts with a fairly small and simple mod whose usefulness cannot be underestimated. Well, not anymore, thanks to this simple mod. Another Quality of Life mod, Bottleneck, lets you see at a glance if your production is being hampered by input, output, or working as intended. This mod adorns assembly machines, furnaces, mining drills, pump jacks and chemical plants with an indicator light that makes it easier to spot bottlenecks in your factory. This is done through the use of an adjustable lighting system. There are Factorio modders who have reworked the game in separate blocks of content that you can choose to add to your game. There are mods here for practically a little bit of everything, from simple retextures, small additions like a clock or enemy type, to major overhauls like adding new resources and buildings. This mod is pretty useful for single player games, but where it really shines is when used for multiplayer Factorio sessions. Imagine this: you and your friends are building a factory together and you have agreed on what each of you will do. Hours into the session, Timmy is completely confused and takes the main bus to the science facility, which John forgot to move. To avoid those puzzles and worse , Todo List is a mod that lets you and your party coordinate and plan ahead with a shared list of tasks in a simple and easy-to-use format. This mod allows you and your group to add and assign tasks, edit existing ones, and then mark them as completed or pending. Factorissimo2 is a revised second version of an already popular mod that allows you to build real factory buildings of different sizes. These giant constructs allow you to enter their factory floors and set up production chains within them for added realism. It even adds more technologies for you to research, improving their size, connection types, layout, and efficiency. So if you just need a roof over your head or need to protect all those busy inserters from extraterrestrial rain, Factorissimo2 lets you do that while also having the option to decorate the inside of some nice looking buildings. Have you ever thought that the vaguely dusty planet Factorio gets a bit monotonous after a while? Alien Biomes is a fun cosmetic mod that lets you generate a variety of different biomes as you explore the planet and expand your factory. You can play around with the temperature settings, affecting how much of the planet is covered with hot or cold biomes, and similarly humidity for more wet and dry biomes — and combinations of all four. There are also terrain type settings and even options to prevent some biomes from ever spawning. This mod also has a version with high definition textures, for those who want to make their graphics stand out even more. To help with your factory logistics, Factory Planner is a mod that allows you to plan your production in advance. You can choose the products you want to craft and specify the recipes, machines, buildings, and modules to complete that task. With the help of this mod you can choose the timescale to use, include resource productivity and even perform advanced calculations. Appealing to both a factory management amateur and a power user, this mod lets you take control of how much of its potential you use for your Factorio projects. The first completely overhauled mod on our list, Krastorio 2 is an interesting and different twist on the vanilla game. It adds a host of new buildings, items, tech, gear, mechanics, and more to the base game, while changing many of the graphics, icons, and sprites from what you might be used to. Normally, when you launch your rocket into space, you win and complete the game. For Space Exploration, launch marks only the beginning of bigger, greater things to come. This mod is a unique challenge where you can discover new planets, satellites, asteroids and stars. Once in space, you can build and explore space stations, mine special resources, and expand your newfound interstellar empire. After all, the factory has to grow, even in space. For those players looking for a more structured way to play Factorio instead of the usual sandbox experience, this mod comes with 10 fully scripted missions spread across a connected campaign reminiscent of classic RTS games. The missions contain mandatory objectives that you must complete, but also some optional side quests. You play as an engineer, the same one from the introductory Factorio tutorials, and your goal is to play through the story of how he survived after crash-landing on a hostile alien planet. The mod is still under active development with the last two missions being playable but incomplete. However, once complete, this mod could prove to be the definitive Factorio campaign experience. Finally, story missions are best experienced in a vanilla Factorio environment. Squeak through Our list starts with a fairly small and simple mod whose usefulness cannot be underestimated.

An Unauthorised History of /r/visualnovels

As communities age, a mythology tends to build up around their origins, with past eras vaguely alluded to as “golden ages.” I’ve seen this happen with reddit’s /r/visualnovels, a place I moderated during its most transformative stage, so I thought I’d offer my insider’s take on its history: what we’d hoped to achieve as moderators, the unintended side-effects of our policies, and why I think /r/visualnovels is stagnating these days. Given my acrimonious departure from the subreddit, you should take this with a grain of salt, but hopefully it’ll be interesting~

The Birth of /r/visualnovels

The very first posts on /r/visualnovels.

/r/visualnovels was founded in late 2009 by /u/Hpdarkman525 (the former account of /u/gambs), who made one post about the upcoming Umineko ep5 fan translation and then promptly forgot about the sub. At this time, the VN fandom consisted primarily of those who had learned Japanese to read VNs, and those who wished they had. Official localisations were almost non-existent, and the fandom hung off the words of the few fan translators. Knowing about VNs felt like knowing a secret, like a secret handshake to be acknowledged as a fellow western otaku.

This didn’t really change until early 2012 with the release of Katawa Shoujo. We now had a Western VN that was free, easy to install (no fiddling with system locale), pretty well written (no cliche cries of “baka” or “onii-chan”), and handled a delicate subject (disability and self-identity) with a sensitivity that really spoke to a lot of gamers. The optional nature of the adult content helped attract horny teenagers while still retaining an air of respectability. KS managed something no other VN had: attention from the mainstream gaming crowd. It drew a huge wave of new fans to the medium, among which were /u/coldacid and /u/Kuiper who became mods on /r/visualnovels and began to promote it.

While the influx of new members gave birth to the community, with newbies becoming veterans, the continued dominance of KS in the VN scene began to wear thin (it wasn’t until 2016 that the number of /r/visualnovels subscribers outnumbered /r/katawashoujo). Especially grating for veterans was the cry of KS as “the best VN ever written” from those who had only ever read that one VN. The constant stream of “what do I read after KS” and rudimentary technical questions on getting Japanese VNs working drowned out the rare news posts or broader discussion threads. The mod team had a hands-off attitude to it, they’d only remove spam or blatant trolling. This only changed in early 2014 when a relatively unknown user, /u/insanityissexy, requested a mod position...

The Rise of Insanity

Insanityy was a member of the old-guard, being drawn to the medium for Japanese VNs and caring little for what she saw as a pale-imitation in Western VNs. With no regard for the old mods, she singlehandedly brought order to a community that had been lawless. She began with a ban on posts for technical support questions and VN recommendation requests. Instead, they should be asked in the new weekly questions thread so as to clear up the front page for news posts and more substantial discussion threads.

While this move was broadly welcomed by most of the subreddit regulars, it caused some disruption as activity on the sub plummeted. With the western VN scene so small, news was rare and the number of daily posts dropped from 2-4 to just 1. While some grumbled, others were enthused in having an active moderator who cared about the sub. /u/kowzz started a discussion thread on what we could do to improve activity on the sub, and from that discussion he started the weekly Sunday discussion posts and I started the weekly “what are you reading” posts. Unlike the questions sticky, the intention wasn’t to curtail activity outside of these weekly posts, but to provide a supplement to the usual discussions and encourage users to comment more.

With such regular discussion posts, users started to bump into each other more often and a sense of community began to build. On a personal level, I also grew to know insanityy better as we exchanged dozens of increasingly lengthy PMs (so much so that each reply wouldn’t fit within the 10k character limit, we had to send our replies in 3 parts), with us quickly becoming close friends.

Later that year, I proposed an overhaul of the user flairs. The subreddit only offered a basic vndb icon. I wanted to expand that to hundreds of options with a larger profile picture offset to the side of a user’s post as a way to personalise each user. With enough options, I hoped it’d be easier to identify users at a glance and it’d add some character to the subreddit. I was admitted to the mod team to oversee the flair changes, but was soon upgraded to full mod status after a few months on insanityy’s urging.

The two of us fed off each other’s passion as we sought to build a more active, mature, and compassionate community. We never paid any heed to the old mods, mod policy was discussed between us on google hangouts and implemented immediately.

To foster a sense of community, we aimed to have a community event once a month: best X contests, census surveys, recommendation charts, fanart contests, halloween/april fool themes being among just some of the activities we organised. We even got Mangagamer to sponsor some contests with free VNs.

We downplayed the seedier parts of the medium, nukige news was banned and discussions on “fapping” were frowned upon. Neither of us were against porn, we’re both fans, but we feared it’d attract a more neckbeard-type audience.

We aggressively went after trolls, but not by banning them. We had automod automatically remove comments from users prone to cause drama, then we’d manually approve non-trollish comments. That way everyone was able to participate in our community, but bad behaviour wasn’t rewarded with lots of attention.

In the following year, insanityy asked the inactive older mods to resign. Kuiper recognised that he was no longer needed and respectfully stepped down. Coldacid said his inactivity was only temporary and he’d be back, but later left reddit for voat as part of an anti-censorship protest. Gambs asked us to drop the subject as he didn’t want to step down, so we carried on ignoring him.

We also added new members to the mod team: /u/FunwithGravity for his knowledge of Japanese, /u/Cornetto_Man because he got along with everyone, and /u/Avebone because he was active at times when the rest of us were asleep. They were added primarily to approve posts mistakenly removed by automod when me and insanityy were afk and had little input on mod policy.

Everything seemed to be going great, we had a growing community that we got along with, trolls were few and far between, and our moderation seemed popular. Then we got a modmail suggesting we try out a new chat program called Discord...

Discord on Discord

When /u/Kowzz and /u/Arcanus44 suggested creating a Discord server, we were initially skeptical. It sounded just like irc, and the /r/visualnovels irc channel had been comatose for years. However Kowz and Arc promised to take care of it for us, Kowz would create the server and Arc would drum up interest. So in Sept 2015, Arc hosted a “meet n’ greet” in voice chat on Discord. While it was by most accounts a success and quite popular, we got some complaints about inappropriate conduct by a couple of users and decided that if this Discord server was going to be linked with /r/visualnovels, we’d need to take an active hand in making sure it maintained our standards.

Kowz was happy to have us onboard, making us admins on Discord. It all seemed smooth, but underneath the surface, the seed of turmoil had been planted in our differing beliefs on who owned the server. Kowz and Arc considered themselves the owners and we were partners, while we considered them to have created the server on our behalf and that it’d run on our principles. Up until then, we’d not had any disagreements on mod policy. Me and insanityy would talk an issue out, if we agreed, we’d propose it to the rest of the mod team and vote on it. We’d picked mods who generally thought the same as us, so votes were normally unanimous. That wasn’t the case with Discord. Kowz and Arc had different ideals on how to run a community, and our usual resolution process of voting felt unfair to them as we outnumbered them 5 to 2.

The problem only got worse with time as insanityy hated arguments so she avoided the staff discussions on Discord and popped in only to vote. Arc and Kowz felt increasingly marginalised by this and that their opinion wasn’t being heard. This led to a standoff where Kowz and Arc demanded their 2 votes should count for as much as the rest of us combined, while we /r/visualnovels mods threatened to create a new server unless we kept one vote each. Discussions got heated until Kowz and Arc eventually backed down. In protest, they chose to stop participating as mods.

While Discord helped bring friends together, it also brought those that disliked each other together. It’s easy to ignore someone on reddit as its tree structure allows for parallel conversations, but the format of Discord makes that harder. This started to become a problem on the server, especially as Discord attracted a different type of user to the subreddit, those who had little patience for the more verbose and patient discussions of the subreddit. We got complaints from the subreddit veterans about some of the newbies but we weren’t sure what to do. Being disliked isn’t a bannable offense, but it was driving away some valued community members.

We didn’t want to create a separate server that split the community, so our misguided solution was the creation of a hidden channel: #sub_regs (a.k.a. the fanclub) that was invite only and accessed via the tableflipper role. The hope was that it’d serve as a backup channel for when #general was annoying and that it’d keep the community veterans on the server. However it ended up encouraging an elitist attitude that divided the community further.

The Fall of /r/visualnovels

With many of the friendly conversations and community atmosphere moving to Discord, the subreddit began to suffer. Inside jokes that were incomprehensible to those not on Discord were frequent, and the community split between those using Discord and those not.

There was also a degree of burnout among the mods. It’s inevitable for all mods, you spend long enough dealing with the worst of the community, the trolls and the spammers, and you begin to develop an us-vs-them mentality. You retreat from the community and draw closer to your fellow mods, looking down upon the normal users. We mods gradually stopped being members of the community and instead became overseers.

Then there was my messy departure from the sub in April 2016. Due to a range of factors: financial difficulties, gender dysphoria, and some toxic “friends,” I became deeply depressed and tried to commit suicide. My fellow subreddit mods (and best friend insanityy) decided the best response was to out me as transgender, block me on social media, and ban me from the subreddit I’d loved so deeply. Insanityy never spoke to me again.

The rest of this is speculation, I was no longer an insider, but from my perspective it looked like this event accelerated the emotional distance insanityy felt from the subreddit as she stopped caring about the community. She tried to carry on as normal at first, running a few contests, maintaining the animated banners I’d once made, but her heart wasn’t in it. She resigned later that year.

With her went the desire to innovate, to improve the community. The remaining mods were followers, not leaders. They could maintain some cosmetic updates and copy the old contests, but they were unable to do anything new. They enlarged the mod team with an additional four members, but it only increased the sense of inertia and made it even harder to get anything done. The subreddit began to feel stale.

The mod team had also become unbalanced, where once me and insanityy spoke up for minority tastes in EVNs and otomes, now the mod team was dominated by Japanese VN fans just as the VN scene was increasingly embracing EVNs. The subreddit felt more elitist than ever just as the medium had never been more diverse.

Unintended Side Effects

While our policies may have made sense at the time, some of the decisions me and insanityy had made began to have a detrimental impact on the subreddit:

We’d brought on Automod to help remove posts when only me and insanityy had to manage everything. We found having a bot leave the removal comment sparked fewer arguments with OP than if one of us did it, and it was more effective at catching spam. But while we strived to reapprove mistakenly removed posts promptly, sometimes OP deleted their post before we could. Psychologically, it also made it dangerously easy to leave some content removed. As we mods burnt out over the years, our standards for what counted as a worthy post kept getting higher with fewer and fewer posts being approved. The end result has been a severe drop in discussion posts on the sub.

When recruiting new moderators, we sought people who thought as we did so mod decisions would be consistent and there wouldn’t be arguments in the mod chat. Modding is stressful enough without the stress coming from within the mod team. However, as you add more mods who agree with you, you can start to have an inflated view of how widespread your opinion is. A circlejerk mentality builds and outside opinion is increasingly easy to dismiss. This can leave users feeling like their opinions don’t matter to the mods and builds resentment.

Insanityy was a kind soul and hated conflict, she avoided disagreements as much as possible. As a friend, this was fine, but as a mod it meant she avoided openly discussing mod policy on the subreddit as inevitably there would be some disagreement. This lack of discussion with the sub made it hard for users to object to the direction the sub took, allowing the mod team to grow out of touch with what the userbase wants.

Hopes for the Future

While I may have been quite critical of the current state of the subreddit, I think the community is a good one and there’s hope for improvement. A smaller, more motivated mod team would help, as well as scaling back some of the restrictions like the question and image-post ban. Let activity on the subreddit explode. Should low-quality content grow to become a problem, perhaps /r/visualnovels should split just as /r/gaming and /r/games have, or perhaps a split between Japanese and English VNs would help?

Not every idea will work out, but what’s important is to be trying new ideas and be responsive to change rather than clinging to an outdated format.

As I said at the start, please remember this isn’t an impartial view on the history of the sub and that this isn’t meant to downplay the hard work of the current mod team. Modding is exhausting, it’s a constant burden with little praise. Even if I consider them poor mods, it doesn’t make them bad people.

I know she won’t ever read this, nor will she care what I think, but I still believe insanityy was an inspirational mod and a wonderful friend. It’s incredibly hard to go it alone like she did when she first took over /r/visualnovels. She stood up for what she thought /r/visualnovels could be and put in so much effort, every day, rain or shine, she never shirked from her responsibilities. I miss her every day.

Software Requirements

It could be difficult to travel to a new city or country without having a map (Google Map). You wouldn't know what means of transport to take or in which direction to travel, making it more difficult to reach your destination. Comparably, In developing software, without proper documentation of software requirements, you're highly unlikely to achieve the right project or service.

So to begin, let's take a quick look at what are my takeaways about what exactly is a software requirement, what are the types of requirements, what is functional and non-functional requirements, guidelines for writing requirements, and the requirements document structure that have been discussed in the lecture 5.

Software requirements are a description of the features and functionalities of the target system. It is very important to the Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC) because this is the very first step in developing a system or software, and if you forgot anything here, this will cause degradation to the project. So the software requirements should be established properly. On the other hand, Requirements are statements that specify what we're supposed to do on the composition of the system.

There are 3 types of requirements. The first one is the User Requirements. User Requirements are statements in natural language plus diagrams of the services the system provides and its operational constraints. It is written for customers. The second type of requirement is Software Requirements, a structured document setting out a detailed description of the system services. Written as a contract between the client and the contractor (developer). Lastly, Software Specification, a detailed software description, and without specifications there should be no programming.

Functional and Non-functional Requirements

Functional requirements are statements of services that the system should provide, how the system should react to particular inputs, and how the system should behave in particular situations.

Non-functional requirements constraints on the services of functions offered by the system such as timing constraints, constraints on the development process standard etc.

Domain Requirements are requirements that came from the application domain system and that reflect characteristics of that domain, and this is the very specific problem that we're going to solve.

In writing a requirements, there are guidelines that should be followed :

Invent a standard format and use it for all requirements.

Use a language in a consistent way. Use "shall" for mandatory requirements, and "should" for desirable requirements.

Use text highlighting to identify key.

Avoid the use of computer jargon.

The requirements document is the official statement of what is required of the system developers. It should include both a definition and a specification of requirements. It is NOT a design document, and it should set WHAT the system should do rather than how it should do it.

Requirements document structure:

Introduction

Glossary

User requirements definition

System Architecture

System requirements specification

System models

System evaluation

Appendices

Index

To conclude, requirements set out what the system should do and define constraints on its operation and implementation. It is essential on achieving the success of the project.

Types of Application Development

Desktop Applications are any software that can be installed on a single computer and used to perform a task. Choosing the best framework for desktop application development isn't the easiest thing to do. However, the good news is that it's a tough choice because you have a diversity of options when it comes to the desktop application frameworks.

Types of desktop frameworks

Desktop Frameworks for Windows App Development

Desktop Framework for MacOS

Cross-Platform Desktop Frameworks

Frameworks for the Native Windows Development

Swing

Cocoa

Windows Forms (Winforms)

What are the use cases for the desktop frameworks?

There are different types of desktop applications that can be designed. These are a few of the options:

Standalone Business Application is the typical applications like Word, Excel, Outlook, and more.

Client-Server Application is applications that runs on the computer but access information from a remote server.

Collaborative Application is an application that is designed to help people involved in a common task.

Utilities and Plug-ins is anything that can help a computer or browser run more efficiently.

System Apps and Services is anything that allows the computer to run various applications.

Multimedia Applications is an application that plays podcasts, movies, video, music, and more. iTunes is a good example of this.

Network Applications is anything that runs over a network.

Web Application Development is a creation of app programs that resides on remote computers and are delivered to user over the internet.

Mobile Application Development is a process of creating or making a mobile application to run on different mobile platforms. Google mobile platform is for android, and Apple's mobile operating system is called iOS. Windows has Windows mobile and RIM has BlackBerry. Each of theses platforms has its own specific regulations, rules and requirements to make a mobile application.

The installer of the MPEG-2 PlaybackComponent may refuse to install the component in Lion and Mountain Lion. Apple states thecomponent is unnecessary in Lion and Mountain Lion, however MPEG Streamclip still needsit. To install the component in Lion or Mountain Lion, please download MPEG Streamclip 1.9.3b8 betaabove; inside the disk image you will find the Utility MPEG2Component M. Lion: use it to install the MPEG-2 Playback Component inLion or Mountain Lion. Theoriginal installer's disk image (QuickTimeMPEG2.dmg) is required. The current versions of MPEG Streamclip cannot take advantage of thebuilt-in MPEG-2 functionality of Lion and Mountain Lion. For MPEG-2 files you still needto install the QuickTime MPEG-2 Playback Component, which is not preinstalled in Lion and Mountain Lion. You don'thave to install QuickTime 7. Also read the information for Snow Leopard below.

The Snow Leopard upgrade DVD released on August 28, 2009 may wipe thecontentofthe /System/Library/QuickTime folder during the upgrade process, anddelete your MPEG-2 Playback Component installed in that folder.To use MPEG-2 files with MPEG Streamclip you have to reinstall theMPEG-2 component or restore it from a backup copy. If you are going to upgrade to SnowLeopard Open the /System/Library/QuickTime folder and drag theQuickTimeMPEG2.component file to your desktop to make a copy of it.Then upgrade to Snow Leopard. When the upgrade is complete, open the/System/Library/QuickTime folder again and move theQuickTimeMPEG2.component file from the desktop to the/System/Library/QuickTime folder (enter your administrator password ifnecessary). If you already upgraded to Snow Leopard You have to reinstall or restore your MPEG-2 Playback Component. If you have a Time Machine backup of your System folder, then open the/System/Library/QuickTime folder, enter Time Machine and go back intime until you see the QuickTimeMPEG2.component file; select that fileand then click Restore. If you purchased the MPEG-2 Playback Component from the Apple OnlineStore, then you probably still have the DMG file that contains theinstaller. Use Spotlight to search for 'QuickTimeMPEG2.dmg': if youfind a file with that name, double-click it and then in the disk image,double-click the installer package for Intel Macs. If you purchased the MPEG-2 Playback Component from the Apple OnlineStore but you can't find the QuickTimeMPEG2.dmg file, you can downloadthe file again from the Apple Online Store if you remember the Apple IDused when you originally purchased it (if you forgot your Apple ID thengo to Apple iforgot). Visitthe Apple Online Store, click on 'Account' in thestore menu, then click 'Downloadable Software Purchases,' enter yourApple ID and password, and click the link to the QuickTime MPEG-2Playback Component to download it again. If you obtained the MPEG-2 Playback Component from the installation ofFinal Cut Studio, then you can reinstall it again from the Final CutStudio DVD. Insert the DVD and use the Finder's Go menu > Go ToFolder.. command to get to the /Volumes/Final CutStudio/Installer/Packages/ folderinside the DVD. Locate the QuickTimeMPEG2.pkg or theQuickTimeMPEG2Pro.pkg installer: double-click it to reinstall theMPEG-2 component.

This free software requires at least Mac OS X 10.2 (Jaguar) andQuickTime 6. It is also compatible with Mac OS X 10.3.x (Panther), MacOS X 10.4.x (Tiger), Mac OS X 10.5.x (Leopard), Mac OS X 10.6.x (SnowLeopard), OS X Lion, OS X Mountain Lion, and QuickTime 7. Itworks with PowerPC and Intelbased Macs. For MPEG-2 playback and conversion, you need the QuickTime MPEG-2Playback Component. You can buy it from Apple(www.apple.com/quicktime/mpeg2).If you have either Final Cut Pro orDVD Studio Pro, then the component is already installed and you don'thave to buy it; but you may need to download the latest version fromApple.If you bought an olderversion of the component, you can update it to the latest version(www.apple.com/quicktime/mpeg2/update).Note that the MPEG-2 componentis neither required nor useful for MPEG-1 or MPEG-4 files. But it isrequired for VOB files and transport streams, because they are MPEG-2files. For DivX playback and editing, you have to install DivX (www.divx.com/divx/mac). You can also install another codec like 3ivx (www.3ivx.com)or XviD(n.ethz.ch/student/naegelic),but only with DivX 6.5 and later (or DivX 5.2.1) you canencode DivX files with MP3audio. For FLV playback and export, you can download and install Perian (www.perian.org). For WMV playback, you can install Flip4Mac WMVPlayer (www.flip4mac.com/wmv.htm).If you also need to export WMV files to another format you have to buyFlip4Mac WMV Player Pro. IMPORTANT NOTE FOR WMV EXPORT: if you want to export to WMV with Exportto Other Formats, the free Flip4MacWMV Player stops at 30 seconds; for full length export you have to buyFlip4Mac WMV Studio (www.flip4mac.com/wmv_studio.htm).

MPEG Streamclip lets you play and edit QuickTime, DV, AVI, MPEG-4,MPEG-1; MPEG-2 or VOB files or transport streams with MPEG, PCM, or AC3audio (MPEG-2 playback component required); DivX (with DivX 6) andWMV (with Flip4Mac WMV Player). MPEG Streamclip can export all theseformats to QuickTime, DV/DV50, AVI/DivX and MPEG-4 with high qualityencoding and even uncompressed or HD video. Video conversion is performed in the YUV color space; you can choose toscale video to any frame size using a professional 2D-FIR scaler(better than bicubic) but you can also leave it unscaled. Otheroptional video processing features include a powerful motion-adaptivedeinterlacer, a field dominance converter, a chroma reinterlacer and anoption to perform interlaced scaling instead of progressive scaling.Audio can be converted to uncompressed or to IMA, AAC, MP2 or AMR usingthe high-quality MP1/MP2/AC3/PCM built-in decoders of MPEG Streamclip;it is also kept in perfect sync with video using a timekeeping system. MPEG Streamclip can save edited movies as MOV files, and (whenpossible) as AVI or MP4 files. Edited MPEG-1 or MPEG-2 files are savedas MPEG or TS files. MPEG Streamclip (with or without the MPEG-2 Playback Component) canalso convert MPEG-2 transport streams into muxed MPEG-2 files, forimmediate burning at full quality with Toast 6 or 7 and Sizzle; it canalso demux MPEG-1 and MPEG-2 files and transport streams with MPEG,AC3, PCM audio to M2V and AIFF (or M1A or AC3) files, for immediateburning at full quality with DVD Studio Pro or Toast 6 and 7. A specialdemuxing option is available for Final Cut Pro 4/5: this applicationdoes not work well with M2V files, but MPEG Streamclip can write aspecial 'unscaled' M2V file that preserves full video quality whenimported into Final Cut Pro. MPEG Streamclip can handle files and streams larger than 4 GB, split inany number of segments, or with multiple audio tracks, and can alsooptionally handle timecode breaks. It is compatible with MPEG-1 andMPEG-2 video, MPEG layer 1/2 (MP1/MP2) audio, AC3/A52 audio, and PCMaudio. The player included in MPEG Streamclip lets you preview the files andtransport streams before doing the conversion; it also lets youvisually set the In and Out points for the conversion so you canconvert just the part of the file you are interested in, and also cutcommercials and other unwanted parts, or edit the stream and join twostreams with Cut/Copy/Paste. MPEG Streamclip supports batch processing: just drag some files in thebatch list, choose a conversion and a folder, click the Go button andMPEG Streamclip will automatically convert all your files.

MPEG Streamclip supports the DreamBox DM7000/DM5620/DM500 and theDM7020 (www.dream-multimedia-tv.de),and the TopfieldTF5000PVR/TF5000PVRt/TF5500PVR (www.topfield.co.kr),two importantfamilies of DVB set-top boxes (all digital satellite receivers, exceptthe TF5000PVRt which is terrestrial and supports DVB-T); two powerfulconnection tools for these devices have been developed and included inMPEG Streamclip. You'll no longer need to use FTP, mount SMB disks, oruse MacTF to download and upload files: MPEG Streamclip does this foryou. For the Topfield, you can even upload TAP files (you can find TAPshere: www.topfield.cc).And for the DreamBox DM7000, there is also amultiboot tool that lets you install firmware images in an external USBstick. MPEG Streamclip is also compatible with most MPEG-2 devices that useprogram or transport stream files, including FireWire MPEG-2 deviceslike Sony IP7/MicroMV, Sony HDR-FX1 (www.sony.com)and JVC GR-HD1camcorders; DVHSrecorders; FireWire/Ethernet/USB set-top boxes or digital videorecorders, like EyeTV (www.elgato.com),ReplayTV, the Samsung SIR-T16,the Humax PVR-8000, the Homecast, the Technisat S2 and the Siemens M740AV; USB cameras like Panasonic SV-AV100, Sony T1 and JVC Everio(www.jvc.com);DVDcamcorders like Panasonic VDR-M70 and HitachiDZ-MV230. MPEG Streamclip is also compatible with most DVD recorders,since it can open and convert unencrypted VOB or VRO files, andsupports AC3 audio. You can import transport stream files from FireWire MPEG-2 devicesusing DVHSCap or VirtualDVHS, two free applications available fromApple as part of the FireWire SDK 20(developer.apple.com/sdk).NOTE: the latest FireWire SDK is not publicly available, please scrolldown the list until you find the FireWire SDK 20, or click this directdownload link from Apple: FireWireSDK 20.

After installing it to your Mac computer, you can use MPEG Streamclip to do many things as below.

This article will show you how to use MPEG Streamclip on Mac to convert videos and DVD files for free, or get the better alternative to convert video more conveniently on any Mac OS X.

Part 1: How to download and install MPEG Streamclip for Mac

Working with video files can be quite a pleasure sometimes, as you can always experiment with different file formats as well as modify them at your own pace. However, on the Macintosh platform there aren’t that many complete solutions for working with videos files and most of these are pretty expensive. Fortunately for us, there is MPEG Streamclip, which is a wonderful utility that not only allows you to convert videos to multiple formats, but also play and edit them as well. On top of that, MPEG Streamclip does wonders with encoding videos, downloading YouTube videos and streams as well.

Downloading and installing this application can’t be easier. You just need to visit the official site then download the desired version. There are 2 different versions available right now, the stable and beta. The stable version, currently 1.9.2 is the best for production use, while the 1.9.3 Beta 8 version is suitable for those that want to give a try to the latest features added. If you want to download YouTube videos then we really recommend that you download the Beta, as the stable version is not currently offering this feature. After the application is downloaded, you just need to drag and drop the application from the DMG to the Applications folder. If you have an older version of OS X and need to save as AVI you might consider installing the separate component included in the download. Once all of this is set however, we are good to go.

2.1: How to convert wmv/mkv/flv/avchd/avi/dvd

MPEG Streamclip (Mac) is a very simple application and using it is just as easy. You need to drag and drop the file you want to process on top of the main window and then select the modifications you want to perform to that specific video. Once a video is loaded you can view and modify things like the Video PID, Audio PID and Audio mode as well. Another way to open the files is by reaching the File menu then choosing one of the options that suit your file type: Open Files, Open URL or Open DVD. If you have a WMV, MKV, FLC, AVCHD or AVI file, then the best option is to choose Open Files.

MPEG Streamclip offers great file conversion features, which make the whole process very simple as well. Once the file is complete, you can choose the desired format you want to export it to from the File menu and then wait for the conversion to complete. The supported output formats are QuickTime, DV, MPEG-4 and AVI. Yes, there might not be many, but on the other hand MPEG Streamclip is available free of charge, so being able to do this free of charge is surely amazing. In addition, you also have the ability to export only the audio of the selected movie or a certain frame, which is surely a plus.

2.2: How to use MPEG Streamclip Mac to join, trim, rotate files

Editing a video file is very useful if you need only a certain portion of the video file or you need it modified a little bit. Operations such as joining, trimming or rotating the video can easily be done with the MPEG Streamclip application. All you have to do is access the Edit menu and then choose the desired function. Be it trim, cut or copy, you just need to select them and, after that, select the portion you want to process, both start and ending, then wait for the process to complete.

If you want to join or rotate your movies then you need to go to the List menu then select the Batch List option. This option allows you to process multiple files at a time, and that’s exactly what we need at this point. You just need to add the two or more files you want to join and then check the option of joining all files. From this window you can also choose to export to different formats, converting or demuxing, which are all very useful features.

When it comes to video rotation, things are just as simple. Just access the Edit menu, choose Rotate Video and you will receive two different rotation modes, the CW and CCW.

2.3: More features

Manage audio track Although MPEG Streamclip is a video editor, it does allow you to perform some unique actions as well. For example, if you access the Edit menu, you can choose to delete an audio track or fix any timecode problems that might appear. The audio track will be deleted automatically after you press the button so you should try and create a backup of the file before processing it with MPEG Streamclip. Work as a recorder MPEG Streamclip can also interact with the Dreambox digital television receivers and act as a recorder. This allows you to grab anything on TV and record it without a hassle, a feature that’s very unique and quite hard to come by in such an application. Preview all frames Another neat feature is surely the ability to preview all frames you are working on. Having a quick preview for them surely helps you a lot and makes the editing process a lot fast as well. Modify the aspect ratio MPEG Streamclip can also modify the aspect ratio of the selected videos, which is a good feature for those people that want to modify the video in such a way so it will fit their TV or computer screen. Combine this with the ability to save the video or audio track separately and this is surely very helpful to say the least. Work with frames The ability to work with streams is surely one of the most powerful features that MPEG Streamclip is offering. You can load a stream from the File Menu, just by clicking Open URL. Here you can choose to open, convert or download the stream and choose between progressive download or random access. These options are good for people that want to view and download streams without too much problems on their computer. And since there aren’t that many tools out there that combine stream playing and video editing, this surely helps MPEG Streamclip stand out of the crowd.

Get Started With Pinterest Video Ads: Here’s How

If you’re anything like me, you’ve been revisiting Pinterest a lot more recently for quarantine cooking recipes, home DIY projects, decorating updates, arts and crafts—the list goes on and on. In the midst of my recipe dive, I saw tons of Pinterest video ads, and I realized how effective this format is for the platform.

Personally, if I were running social advertising for a B2C business right now, I would absolutely invest in video ads on Pinterest. That’s why today, I’m going to walk you through everything you need to know about Pinterest video ads, including:

Why you should use Pinterest video ads.

How to set up video ads on Pinterest.

How to format your Pinterest video ads for the best results.

What content works best in Pinterest video ads.

Why should you use Pinterest video ads?

In short? Because they’re effective. Pinterest video ads are integrated in the feed to appear alongside organic pins. The ads come in standard or max width sizes, which are the same height as a typical pin but can be as wide as a double column on mobile. The ads begin playing automatically when they come into a user’s home feed, and they can be viewed in a larger view, replayed, or played with audio.

Here are a few more reasons why you should use Pinterest video ads:

The reach: 367 million people use Pinterest every month.

The high-intent audience ready to purchase: 98% of Pinners report trying new things they found on the platform, and 85% use Pinterest as a resource when they’re starting a new project.

The opportunity: Earned media is a huge player for Pinterest, particularly for well-designed pins and content. That means *free* branding, traffic, and conversions because Pinterest users are high-intent.

Now that we’re clear on why, let’s talk about how.

How to set up Pinterest video ads

If you’re already running ad campaigns on Pinterest, the set up for video ads is not that different. But if you’re brand new to the platform, you’ll need to set up a business account to access the ad manager and analytics. You can set it up from scratch or convert an existing personal account.

Once you have your account all set up, select “Create Ad” to get started. If you already have existing pins for your business that just so happen to be videos, you’re in luck! You can simply select those, add them to a campaign, and hit go.

If you’re starting your account from scratch, you’ll have to add your own content to get things moving. Like any other promoted pin, you can upload content one at a time or all at once by using the bulk editor. You will need to add billing information before any of your ads can be set live.

Step #1: Set your campaign goal

To get started, you need to set a goal for your campaign. These ads can be used for brand awareness, video views, conversions, and traffic campaign objectives.

Step #2: Target your audience

Like other popular social advertising platforms (yes, I’m talking about Facebook), there are plenty of options for targeting the audience you want. Because this is Pinterest, the most important section will be the “Interests.” Remember back in the day, when you had to be invited to Pinterest and when you set it up, you had to select what you were looking for on the platform? Those overarching interests continue to keep users addicted to the platform, which is how you can reach the perfect audience.

You can also target by keyword, demographic, location, language, and device.

Step #3: Budgets, bids, and delivery

This is a short step, and then you’re almost done. Input your budget for this campaign (daily or total), followed by your CPV (cost per view) bid, and pacing.

Step #4: Select your pins

Finally, you’ll need to select the pins and videos you want to promote through this campaign. This is the meat-and-potatoes, if you will.

Or, if you have the file saved on your computer, just drag-and-drop, add a link, and publish away.

Pinterest video ad specs

Like any social media advertising platform, Pinterest works hard to make their ad formats appear as native to the platform as possible. Below are the specs to make your shiny new video ads:

File Type: .mov, .mp4, .m4v

Size: max 2GB

Length: 4 seconds to 15 minutes

Title: 100 characters max

Description: 500 characters max

Recommended standard aspect ratio: square, 2:3, 4:5, or 9:16

Required max width aspect ratio: square, or 16:9

A few notes: Only about 50 to 60 characters of your title and description text will appear in the feed; it will all be displayed if a user selects the video.

And if you’re overwhelmed by the prospect of creating a 12-minute Pinterest video ad, you should be! Pinterest (and every Pinterest user) recommends keeping your videos between six and 15 seconds long.

As always, each video pin will need a destination link and cover image, which can be selected from the video itself.

Pinterest video ad best practices

While anyone can set up a nice-looking pin for advertising using Canva or existing brand images, creating a video ad can seem a bit more intimidating. For everyone. In fact, I managed social advertising for more than two years before even attempting video ads, and that was when I had access to a creative team! Don’t be scared like me—it’s not bad at all!

Keep in mind that Pinterest video ads autoplay when they are 50% in view on a user’s feed, and they will be muted until someone clicks on them. Additionally, Pinterest reports that branded advertising (not just video ads) do perform well for their audience, so throw in your logo and branded colors!

Here are some easy ways to set up video ads yourself and best practices to keep top-of-mind when you do.

Add to your toolbelt

If you’re not well-versed in editing video (as many marketers aren’t—don’t feel bad), there are tools to help. I highly recommend using a video creator. A lot of tools are subscription-based, which means you can sign up, create a video, run the ad, and cancel your trial if it doesn’t pan out for you! Some of my go-tos include Promo, Animoto, wave.video, and Biteable.

Focus on the message

It can be easy to get caught up in your offering or product and forget about how you want to attract prospects. Instead of prominently featuring the UX of your shiny new app or product, focus on how it can solve problems for your customers. Imagine a relatable scenario in which they’d really need your app/product/offering and make a video ad out of that.

I’d be remiss if I forgot to tell you: When you’re making a video ad, don’t forget about words. People will watch this ad on mute first, as it comes into their feed, but the ad space itself will be pretty small, so don’t make the whole tile full of Powerpoint-popping words. Select the most important, emphasize them in the design, and tailor your title and description to those as well.

KISS!

Keep it short and simple. Remember, Pinterest recommends a video ad stay between six and 15 seconds—if you’re used to creating pre-roll ads, you’re in luck. Consider making the video a looping gif for the shorter, six-second side or three to five animated slides for the longer side.

For example, this ad below was served when I searched for “Bohemian Bedroom ideas” and it’s just ... a tour of a bohemian bedroom.

Exactly what I was looking for.

Get pinning

Now, we’ve gone over why you should get started with Pinterest video ads, how to set up your campaign, and how to make sure your ads are effective—it’s time for you to go and get pinning!

How to Download Instagram Photos in 2020

There are so many reasons why you may want to download your photo from Instagram. It could be that you accidentally deleted a picture on your phone that you uploaded to Instagram. Or you misplaced your camera or your phone. Maybe you took the image with the app, and you forgot to save it. Whatever the reason may be, we’ll teach you how to download the photograph.

It’s easier to upload a picture to Instagram to download one. As difficult as that process may be, we’ll break it down for you such that you won’t have issues downloading an image from your YouTube account. Some of the methods we’re going to mention in this article allow you to download images uploaded by other users. While this is possible, we’ll advise that you seek permission from other users before you use a video they uploaded. This way, you can prevent a lawsuit from using a picture you got from Instagram.

How to download Instagram photos from Mac or PC

There’s no method from Instagram that allows you to download a picture from your Instagram feed. Still, you can download all the videos, and you have on the platform, including Instagram stories. Instagram created this method of downloading files as a result of a privacy concern from its parent company; as such, Instagram allows users to download all their data from the site. If you want to download all your information on Instagram, here’s how to do that.

Log in to your Instagram Account

Go to Instagram, this is the Instagram official website, login to your Instagram account. Before you login, ensure that you’re logging in on the official Instagram account and that there’s no spelling error in the URL. When you’re in, go to the top right of the screen and tap on the gear icon beside “Edit Profile,” then click on “Privacy and Security.”

Request Download

Go to “Account Privacy.” Navigate through the page to find and tap on “Data Download.” To download your data, you have to request it that Instagram sends it to you. As such, select “Request Download” on that page. Instagram will mandate you to enter your email and password again. Then, you will have to confirm the email that you want Instagram to send the picture, then tap “Next.” Instagram will start gathering all your data into a format you can download, and then they will send a link to your email for downloading the file. The entire process may take up to 48hrs before you get the download link. However, there are instances where people got the message within 1 hour. You can’t download the data after 96 hours, as such, you must check your mail regularly if you requested to download your data.

Download your data

When you get the email, tap on “Download data,” and it will direct you to Instagram where you’re to sign-in before you can download the data. Instagram did this to ensure that a third-party that has access to your mail will not be able to download the data. The file will contain the details of your likes, comments, messages, videos, and pictures. Ridiculous right? You can also request to download all your data through the Instagram app. You need to log in to your account as you’ll typically do, then go to your profile page. Tap on the menu icon; it is the three-dot icon at the corner of your Instagram app. When the menu icon opens, among the options you will see, tap on “Settings,” then choose “Security,” after that, tap on “Download Data” and input your password and email. Then you will have to tap on “Request Download.”

How to download pictures from Instagram with third party options If you need a photo from Instagram, and the first option we presented you with sounds time consuming, then you can use a third-party app. There are a lot of third-party apps that will provide you with an easy way to download your video. Some of these third-party apps will ask for your login detail, while those who won’t bore you with ads. Left to us, we’ll advise you to use the previous solution, but if what you want is convenience, then you can use the third-party apps we’re going to be discussing below.

DownloadGram

DownloadGram is one of the most popular third party options as you don’t need to download any software to your device. Also, you can conveniently use it on your smartphone and your computer, however, the demerit is that you can only download a picture at once. Here’s how to download an image from DownloadGram.

A. Go to post

Go to the Instagram website and log in on your computer, or simply login in on your app. Find the picture that you will like to download, and tap the three-dot icon at its top right, then copy the share URL on the app. On the desktop, tap on “Go to Post” after tapping on the three-dot icon, then copy the URL of the page.

B. Download image

Go to Downloadgram.com and paste the URL into the box provided for that. Tap on “Download,” then choose the download image to save your picture.

Other options will let you download lots of images at a time. However, you will have to download the app on your mobile phone. One of such apps is

FastSave for Instagram.

With FastSave, you don’t need to copy and paste your page URL. However, you need to grant the app access to your data, plus the ads a very annoying. Another third party solution is 4K Stogram; this solution allows you to download images based on hashtags. It is very suitable for downloading multiple pictures.

JavaScript Error/ Exception Handling 2020

New Post has been published on https://is.gd/voqWkO

JavaScript Error/ Exception Handling 2020

In this article, we will understand how Error Exception Handling done In JavaScript and different types of errors.

Error Handling / Exception Handling In JavaScript:

Error is an action that is incorrect and it might occur due to some misconfiguration or invalid input from a user or while performing some operation in which is data is not a proper format in which operation is expected.

Because of an error, your program will terminate abnormally. To avoid such a situation we need to catch such error or exception. If the program terminates abnormally then the user will frustrate to avoid such a situation you need to handle such kind of errors or exceptions in the JavaScript program.

(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push();

To handle such a situation in javascript it will provide some keywords/ methods which are try, catch, finally and throw. We will understand the meaning of each term in the below information.

Types of Errors:

Mainly 3 types of error occurred in the program.

(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push();

Syntax error

Logical Error

Runtime Error

Syntax Error

As per computer science definition a syntax error is an error in syntax and which meanwhile you writing a program you sequence of characters or tokens might misplace or you forgot to enter.

<script type="text/javascript"> // Here the semicolon after the printing statement // is missing and it is a syntax error window.print() </script>

Logical Error

It is the most difficult error to trace and error mainly because of the logical part of coding or logic which called a bug. That bug causes the program to terminate abnormally.

Runtime Error

This error occurred during the program execution or program is running is also known as an exception.

<script type="text/javascript"> // An runtime error here window.addition(); </script>

In the above program, there is no addition method present in window object we called here so this will cause a runtime exception.

Try: In this try block you can write a code that you thought might cause an exception. This means it is a test block.

Catch This statement used to catch exception as the name suggest. If your try block causing exception it will catch in the catch block.

Finally: This statement is always executed irrespective of whatever happened In the program. It is generally used after try or try..catch block so this block ensures you I will execute 100%.

Throw: This is used to throw a custom exception or user-defined exception which end-user can understand. It means it allows you to create custom errors as per the user’s need.

Error object: it is a built-in error object that provides you information about an error that occurs. The error object provides you 2 useful properties name and message.

Error Object Properties

Property Description name Sets or returns an error name message Sets or returns an error message (a string)

Error Exception handling In JavaScript

Window.onerror in JavaScript

In general, we handle the error using try..catch block in JavaScript. Suppose the code which causes an exception is not present inside the try…catch block then onerror event is fired.

The onerror is the property of GlobalEventHandlers that processes the request.

General Syntax of window.onerror function is

window.onerror = function(message, url, lineno, colno, error) ...

Message: it specifies the error message

URL: it specifies the location of the file where the error occurred

Lineno: it specifies line number where the error occurred

Colon: it specifies the column number of the line where an error occurred

Error: it is an error object

What is the significance of return true in the window.onerror function?

In the older version of the javascript function, it displays errors on the bottom right corner of the webpage or browser window. If you want to suppress this you need to return true. Else you can return false from this function.

window.onerror=function(message, url, lineno, colno, error) document.writeln("Message : " + message); document.writeln("<br/>"); document.writeln("URL : " + url); document.writeln("<br/>"); document.writeln("lineNo : " + lineno); document.writeln("<br/>"); document.writeln("colno : " + colno); document.writeln("<br/>"); document.writeln("error : " + error); return true; IcallNeverExistingFunction();
