Function

Function A function is a relation between a set of inputs and a set of permissible outputs with the property that each input is related to exactly one output. Representation - Cartesian  product  of 2 sets is mapping every element to every element of other set. It is generally represented as X A={"a","b"}, B={"y","z"} then A X B= {("a","y"),("a","z"),(b,y),(b,z)} Relation: A Relation R from a non-empty set A to a non empty set B is a subset of cartesian product A X B. n(A)= number of element in set A. n(B)= number of element in set B. Let 's say n(A)=p, n(B)=q n(A X B)=pq then no of relations possible from A to B is 2^pq A relation f from a set A to a set B is said to function if every element of set A has one and only one image in set B. Relation: A function f is X to Y then f: X->Y X is called domain set, Y is called range function. Functions are generally represented as  f ( x ) L...

OFFSET in Computer Science

OFFSET in Computer Science In the post, We will understand what is the meaning of OFFSET in computer science with an example. In computer science offset comes picture at may place like packing a data structure, encoding the data etc in some standard protocol so that other parties can deserialise it and understand the data. We will understand its important how does it work with example. suppose we have a data structure for a student like { name:string[20] roll: int[4] course: string[25] batch: int[4] } We want to serialise below student data  { name:"Amit Gupta" roll: 1234 course:Computer Science" batch: 2018 } Our protocol follow the rule that we will insert a value and if space will remain empty we will fill it with $ for example length of "Amit Gupta" is 10 but standard size is 20 so will fill 10 $ after "Amit Gupta". So serialisation of above data will be Amit Gupta$$$$$$$$$$1234Computer Sc...

What is the difference between library and framework? In this post, We will learn about the very confusing term library and framework that widely used in software. Library and Framework Library: Library is a code repository that your code call. For example, curl is a library that can be called by your code. Framework: In a framework, framework call your code.
