Python Try, Except, Else, Finally

🐍 When an error is reported by Python, you certainly don't want the code to stop abruptly. You would want some actions to be taken if an error is reported. For this, 'Try' is used in Python.

'Try' executes a code. 'Except' captures errors and carries out actions when a certain or any error is reported in the lines executed by Try. 'Else' is optional and follows Except. Lines in Else is executed if no errors are reported. 'Finally' comes at the end and is optional too. Lines in Finally are executed irrespective of errors found or not.

Example:

#Runs on Jupyter Notebook
while True:
    try:
        result = int(input("Provide an integer:"))
    except:
        print("That is not an integer.")
        continue
    else:
        print(f"The integer you entered is {result}")
        break
    finally:
        print("Let's do it again.")

'Continue' and 'Break' comes to use when a while loop is used. Since we wanted to repeat the task again and again until an integer is input by user, we have used 'While' loop. Break is used to end while loop abruptly. Continue is used to inform our program to go on without stopping.

Difference between .exec() and .execPopulate() in Mongoose?

Here I answer what is the difference between .exec() and .execPopulate() in Mongoose? .exec() is used with a query while .execPopulate() is used with a document Syntax for .exec() is as follows: Model.query() . populate ( 'field' ) . exec () // returns promise . then ( function ( document ) { console . log ( document ); }); Syntax for .execPopulate() is as follows: fetchedDocument . populate ( 'field' ) . execPopulate () // returns promise . then ( function ( document ) { console . log ( document ); }); When working with individual document use .execPopulate(), for model query use .exec(). Both returns a promise. One can do without .exec() or .execPopulate() but then has to pass a callback in populate.

Machine Learning — Supervised, Unsupervised, and Reinforcement — Explanation with Example

🤖 Let's take an example of machine learning and see how it can be performed in three different ways — Supervised, Unsupervised, and Reinforcement. We want a program to be able to identify apple in pictures Supervised Learning You will create or use a model that takes a set of pictures of apple and it analyses the commonality in those pictures. Now when you show a new picture to the program, it will identify whether it has an apple or not. It can also provide details on how confident is the program about it. Unsupervised Learning In this method, you create or use a model that goes through some images and tries to group them as per the commonalities it observes such as color, shape, size, partern, etc. And now you can go through the groups and inform the program what to call them. So, you can inform the program about the group that is apple mostly. Next time you show a picture, it can tell if an apple is there or not. Reinforcement Learning Here the model you create or...

  Solution This article assumes you already have some confidence with  graph algorithms , such as  breadth-first search  and  depth-first searching . If you're familiar with those, but not with  topological sort  (the topic tag for this problem), don't panic, as you should still be able to make sense of it. It is one of the many more advanced algorithms that keen programmers tend to "invent" themselves before realizing it's already a widely known and used algorithm. There are a couple of approaches to topological sort;  Kahn's Algorithm  and DFS. A few things to keep in mind: The letters  within a word  don't tell us anything about the relative order. For example, the presence of the word  kitten  in the list does  not  tell us that the letter  k  is before the letter  i . The input can contain words followed by their prefix, for example,  abcd  and then  ab . These cases will never ...
