Receiver Parameter Idiom in Golang

I came across this line of code in a GoLang code base today:

func (us UserStore) GetUsers(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) { // implementation // making use of `us` object/variable}

and my honest reaction was ... humm!

To me, this wasn't new but also something that I haven't paid much attention to either. I had just realized that the variable us is actually not in the argument list.

If we take look at the above snippet, the us variable is being passed separately to the functio...

Responsive Navigation Bar [without Bootstrap or external library]

A responsive nav-bar is a UI/UX based element, which is essential to improve the appearance and ease of navigation in websites. It consists of a 1D bar (usually) with icons and hyperlinks to take you to different parts of the same website. Almost all modern websites have a nav bar of some format, and the better-looking and functional it is, the more it improves user experience and gives a great impression, especially if you want to add it to your portfolio projects.

We can easily create a simple...

The vector of arrays in C++ is an excellent tool for efficiently managing fixed-size arrays within a vector. This approach is particularly advantageous for organizing grouped data where each array shares a uniform size. In this structure, each element in the vector is an array of a consistent size. This method is commonly empl...

Discovery of Speed of Light and some methods to measure it

Introduction

From the ancient times to the modern days, It was a very long journey how concepts about light evolved with time and new experiments and observations. Today we all know Light is a electro-magnetic wave as well as bunch of photon particles.

The speed of light in vacuum is a fundamental constant. The accuracy of determination of speed of light really matters beacause it is the maximum possible velocity of a particle, according to the relativity theory. Many scientist Tried to calculat...

Rendezvous hashing

Key Takeaways (Rendezvous hashing) Rendezvous hashing, also known as highest random weight (HRW) hashing. Rendezvous hashing solves a general version of the distributed hash table problem. Rendezvous hashing distributes keys uniformly across the nodes. Rendezvous hashing was invented by David Thaler and Chinya Ravishankar at the University of Michigan in 1996. Apache Ignite distributed database uses Rendezvous hashingTable of ContentIntroductionPropertiesAlgorithmC...
