How to start programming?

How to start programming or coding? This is the first question for beginners and hobbyist who have just started to think about programming. Programming is a big thing. Hey, I\'m just kidding. But to some extent its true if you don\'t know the basic rules of programming and most important it becomes harder if you don\'t understand the flow of programming. Here, I am sharing some of my programming experience with you.

What is programming or coding?

Programming is a mechanism with the help of which we can make the applied object to work as we order it or as we desire. For example, a parrot repeats the phrase if we speak infront of him repeatedly. Here, we are programming the parrot

What A Pharmacy Technician Should Know?

A pharmacy technician should be expert in: 

•     Dispensing 
•     Compounding 
•     Aseptic handling 

Dispensing: Dispensing includes prescription checking, interventions and counseling.  a) Medicine related factors: 1) Check deviation from usual dose range. Rx Albendazole 100mg x 2 x 3 days Prescriber wished to write Mebendazole 100mg x 2 x 3 days but incorrectly wrote albendazole.  2) Check if unit dose exceeds maximum unit dose. Rx Glibenclamide 15mg x 1 x 30 days Maximum unit dose of glibenclamide is 10 mg. Higher doses should be given in divided doses.  3) Check if daily dose exceeds maximum daily dose Rx Metformin 1000mg x 3 x 30 days Max daily dose of metformin is 2000mg. Little benefit seen above total daily dose of 2000mg.  4) Check if daily dose is less than minimum daily dose Name:

Wireless power transfer coil

TDK Corporation announced the development of a TDK wireless power transfer coil unit designed for Smartphones and other mobile devices. The receiving coil designed for integration in smartphones and similar represents an industry-leading achievement, featuring a thickness of a mere 0.57 mm.

The development reflects TDK's extensive expertise in fields such as magnetic materials technology and process technology, and involved the creation of a unique, extremely thin and flexible metal magnetic sheet. As a result, the coil unit not only is ultra thin and lightweight, it also is highly resistant to shock and therefore provides excellent reliability. Furthermore, in spite of its 0.57 mm profile, the coil's design minimizes the tendency towards rising resistance and achieves a power transfer efficiency that

Million-year storage solution is set in stone

A sapphire hard disk can last one million years and resolve a problem worrying archaeologists. Thursday, Patrick Charton of the French nuclear waste management agency ANDRA, presented a way out of data storage problems, an information-engraved sapphire disk using platinum. The disk is being called the ultimate, if not ultimately unaffordable, HDD. The disk was announced at this week’s Euroscience Open Forum, a pan-European event drawing researchers, as a way to provide information for future archaeologists.

The solution is in the form of two thin disks of industrial sapphire, molecularly fused, with a thin layer of inscribed platinum. The disks were immersed in acid to test their durability and to simulate aging. With the sapphire disk, up to 40,000 miniaturized pages

Microchips’ optical future

To keep energy consumption under control, future chips may need to move data using light instead of electricity — and the technical expertise to build them may reside in the United States.

As the United States seeks to reinvigorate its job market and move past economic recession, MIT Newsexamines manufacturing’s role in the country's economic future through this series on work at the Institute around manufacturing.

Computer chips are one area where the United States still enjoys a significant manufacturing lead over the rest of the world. In 2011, five of the top 10 chipmakers by revenue were U.S. companies, and Intel, the largest of them by a wide margin, has seven manufacturing facilities in the United States, versus only three overseas.The most

Airborne robot swarms are making complex moves (w/ video)

The GRASP Lab at the University of Pennsylvania this week released a video that shows their new look in GRASP Lab robotic flying devices. They are now showing flying devices with more complex behavior than before, in a fleet of flying devices that move in packs, navigate spaces with obstacles, flip over and retain position, and carry out formation flying.

The researchers have cut down these robotic creature-like drones to small size to what they call “nano-quadrotors.” The video shows them in action: not just engaged in formation flying, but also creating an impressive looking figure-eight pattern.

The video says as much about the GRASP Lab as the flying machines, in that the GRASP Labs seems intent on raising the bar on what
