Node.js HTTP Module

Node.js HTTP Module

In this tutorial, we will learn about Node.js HTTP module and understand how out code working that we have written in Getting started with node.js.

Node.js has a built-in module called HTTP, which allows Node.js to transfer data over the http. To include the HTTP module, use the require() function.
 var http = require('http');

Node.js as a Web Server

The HTTP module can create an HTTP server that listens to server ports and gives a response back to the client. we used createServer() method to create an HTTP server.
 var http = require('http');  
   
 //create a server object:  
 http.createServer(function (req, res) {  
  res.write('Hello World!'); //write a response to the client  
  res.end(); //end the response  
 }).listen(3000); //the server object listens on port 3000

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...

Pointer In C Programming Language

Pointer In C Programming Language In this post, We will learn about pointer in C programming language. Introduction Pointers in C programming language is a variable that stores the memory address of another variable. A pointer in C is used to allocate memory dynamically i.e. at runtime. The pointer variable might be belonging to any of the data types such as int, float, char, double, short etc. Important Points About Pointer in C: Pointer stores the address of a variable whereas a normal variable stores the value.   The content of the C pointer always be a whole number i.e. address. Default C pointer is initialized to null, i.e. int *p = null. The value of the null pointer is 0. & symbol is used to get the address of the variable. * symbol is used to get the value of the variable that the pointer is pointing to. If a pointer in C is assigned to NULL, it means it is pointing to nothing. Two pointers can be subtracted to know how many elements are available...
