This is a post that describes about the basics of integers and it goes on to explain what are the maximum and minimum value an integer can take and why we cannot use integers to store a 13 digit number.
Can you store a 13 digit number in an integer (int) variable in your program? Read More »
Transistors operate as switches just like the ones you see below), the only thing is you don’t switch them on/off physically. Transistors can store binary value 0 (when current is not flowing through the base) and 1 (when current is flowing through the base). But, you may think how is this so different from a

Let’s talk about how functions in mathematics is related to coding in this blog. You must have already written some code in some language and you might’ve used for-loops or while-loops and processed some data using these loops. We typically write different code in various languages to solve some problems like, say sorting an array

This is a post on how atoms, electrons, breadboards, transistors, circuits and PCBs are related to computer science and why we should study them in detail.
This is a post written originally on Today.com (Parenting team) and the link to the article is here. Kids learning to code in school is a craze that has hit public schools in the last several years. It’s all the rage from high schools to elementary schools to after-school clubs at all levels. The movement

HTML doesn’t describe the layout of the page. It describes the relative structure of the content like which is the title, which is the heading, which is the sub-heading and which is the paragraph. How this content has to be shown and rendered will be decided by styling and it is called style sheets. In

Programming Languages are of two types – strongly typed and weakly typed. Certain languages like JavaScript and PHP are called weakly typed languages. This means that when you create a variable in either language, you do not need to assign its data type (like whether it is integer, string or float) specifically; it is assumed

6 year olds are coding, and we wrote in a previous post on why we were not surprised by this feat. Coding is the language of computers, and just like learning any other language, starting early is always better. Today, we have simple interface based tools to write code, such as block-based coding languages, that
