I am happy to share AUTOMATIC-SCHEDULER, a Python-based academic scheduling system that I developed to generate optimized weekly class schedules using Google OR-Tools CP-SAT (Constraint Programming - Satisfiability). The project was designed to support academic departments in automating timetable preparation for faculty, rooms, sections, and course offerings. By using structured CSV input files and constraint-based optimization, the system can generate feasible schedules while enforcing practical rules such as avoiding faculty, room, and section conflicts, respecting blocked times, protecting lunch breaks, matching room type and capacity requirements, and preventing laboratory classes from being scheduled on Fridays. The application was built with Python, Tkinter, and Google OR-Tools CP-SAT, combining a desktop interface with a powerful optimization engine. It also includes timetable viewing, validation tools, diagnostics for unscheduled offerings, CSV export, and sample input generation. This project demonstrates how programming and optimization can be applied to improve academic scheduling processes and reduce the complexity of manual timetable preparation that usually takes 3 days to a week into just a matter of minutes. #Python #GoogleORTools #AcademicScheduling #Optimization #Tkinter #OperationsResearch #Automation #SoftwareDevelopment GitHub: https://lnkd.in/gj5nmU_m

💡 Ever wondered how file uploads actually work behind the scenes? Not just “click upload” — but what really happens under the hood? 🚀 As part of my daily Python learning, I built a chunk-based file transfer system using sockets — similar to how real-world systems handle large file uploads and streaming. 👉 Instead of sending the whole file at once, my system: Breaks files into 4096-byte chunks Sends metadata (filename, size) Transfers each chunk with its length Reconstructs the file safely on the server side This approach improves: ✅ Reliability ✅ Memory efficiency ✅ Scalability for large files 📄 I’ve attached the complete client-server implementation in the document. 🎯 What this project demonstrates: Strong understanding of Python networking (TCP sockets) Handling streamed/partial data (recv loops) Designing a custom communication protocol Writing robust backend logic 📈 What I’m working on next: Multi-client support (threading / async) Progress tracking 📊 Retry mechanism for failed transfers Secure transfer (encryption) 🔐 #Python #BackendDevelopment #Networking #Sockets #Developers #LearningInPublic

My Day 9 of 90 Days Growth Challenge AMDOR ANALYTICS Hello! Today, we’ll investigate a crucial concept in Python Programming called loop statement. This concept of loop statement makes all programming languages to be super powerful and perform repeated task with speed and precision beyond human. How can you repeat a task a million times without the concept of loop statement? When I first started into programming with R in 2019 doing my statistical work, it was a bit confusing especially the While loop, but the case is different now. The word loop in programming literally means repetition, we can repeat over a sequence or range (For Loop) or over an infinite loop or a conditional loop (While loop) Reasons why we use Loop · Automation: Loops automate tedious, repetitive tasks that would otherwise take hours or days to perform manually. · Speed: Programs using loops can process thousands or million of data items – such as generating paychecks or sorting database records in seconds. · Resource Optimization: Modern CPUs can often optimize loop iterations for faster execution than equivalent manual lines of code. Tomorrow, we will delve deeper into For loop and While loop – It’ll be expository or explosive. #Techjourney #90daysgrowthchallenge #consistency #growth #aiengineering #Amdoranalytics

Someone was stuck on a DSA problem for hours. I explained it in 5 minutes. That gap is exactly why I write. The question was simple on the surface: "Why does the loop run range(M-N+1) instead of range(P+1)?" But the confusion behind it was real. Here is the actual logic nobody explains clearly: When you pick P elements from a list of size M — you are not just counting P. You are sliding a window of size P across M total elements. # What beginners think for i in range(P+1) # only depends on P — WRONG # What actually works for i in range(M-N+1) # depends on both M and P — CORRECT ``` The window starts at index `i` and ends at `i+N-1`. For the last index to stay inside the list: ``` i + N - 1 < M i < M - N + 1 That is why range(M-N+1) — not range(P+1). Using range(P+1) completely ignores M. Which means you will either miss valid groups or go out of bounds. The real insight here: Sliding window problems are not about the window size. They are about where the window can legally start. Once that clicks — an entire category of DSA problems becomes obvious. The best way to know if you truly understand something — Write it down for someone who doesn't. If you can't explain it simply, you don't understand it yet. Stack Overflow has 58 million unanswered or poorly answered questions. If you understand something — write it down. It costs you 10 minutes. It saves someone else 3 hours. ◆ What DSA concept took you the longest to actually understand? #StackOverflow #DSA #Python #SlidingWindow #Developer #LearningInPublic #Programming #CareerGrowth #100DaysOfCode #SoftwareEngineering

🧠 I built my own programming language — GreyMatter! Inspired by Grey Matter from Ben 10 (yes, the alien genius 😄), I created a fully functional interpreted programming language built in Python using SLY. GreyMatter supports: ✅ Variables, loops, and conditionals ✅ User-defined functions with FEEDBACK (return values) ✅ String utilities like WAYBIG() (uppercase) and NANOMECH() (lowercase) ✅ Time utilities via PARADOX.SLEEP() and PARADOX.UNIDATE() ✅ A memory system called BRAINSTORM ✅ Even experimental @WEB_SEARCH and @AI query features! The whole interpreter works through Lexical Analysis → Parsing → AST Generation → Runtime Execution. This project taught me how real-world languages like Python and JavaScript actually work under the hood. If you're a CS student or a curious developer, building your own language is one of the most valuable things you can do. 🔗 GitHub: github.com/Abineshabee #Programming #Python #ComputerScience #OpenSource #LanguageDesign #StudentProject #Interpreter #Ben10 #GreyMatter #BuildInPublic

How do you explain a “function” to a newbie?🤔 For me, the simplest way is this: a function is a reusable tool for a specific task. ✨ Think about it like this: when you want to sweep your floor, you don’t reinvent the broom every time, right? You grab the broom, sweep, and done. ✅ In programming, a function works the same way. Once you’ve written it, you can reuse it anywhere you need that task done. No need to repeat the steps from scratch. So the next time someone asks you what a function is, don’t get lost in technical jargon. Just say: “It’s your broom in the coding world. Once you have it, you just keep using it.” 😉 What everyday object would you compare a function to? #Programming #Python #BackendDevelopment #SoftwareEngineering #LearnigInPublic

Writing code that works is one thing but designing something that’s easy to extend and doesn’t break as it grows is a different challenge. Lately, I’ve been thinking more about what actually makes object-oriented design effective not just functional. Especially when building systems in Python that need to handle complexity. I built a turn based card game system in Python to focus on that using object oriented programming to managing state, interactions, and edge cases through clean class design. What stood out to me was how much the structure of code impacts its ability to handle complexity. Designing components that interact cleanly and behave correctly across different scenarios made me realise how important good OOP design really is. Through this Python based project, I was able to: - Design a modular class structure to manage system state and interactions - Implement clear separation of responsibilities across components - Handle edge cases and ensure robustness - Build logic that consistently passes all test scenarios This has pushed me to explore object-oriented programming in Python more intentionally, focusing on building systems that are maintainable and scalable. I’ve shared the project on GitHub for anyone interested in trying out themselves: https://lnkd.in/gV2bmvMS #SoftwareEngineering #Python #ObjectOrientedProgramming #StudentProject #Tech

Check out my latest blog published blog on Medium about coding practices that made my project cleaner, more structured, and easier to manage. As a student working on my second-semester project, I started applying concepts like modular programming, virtual environments, logging, and secure configuration handling. Initially, they felt like extra effort. But over time, I realized how much they improve code quality and maintainability. In this blog, I’ve shared practical insights on: • Using virtual environments to avoid dependency conflicts • Managing dependencies with requirements.txt • Structuring projects using modular execution • Replacing print statements with proper logging • Keeping configs clean with .ini files • Securing sensitive data using AES encryption These small practices, when combined, make your codebase more professional and scalable. If you're building projects (especially as a beginner), adopting these early can save a lot of time and effort later. Would love to hear your thoughts and feedback! #Python #SoftwareDevelopment #CodingPractices #LearningInPublic #StudentsInTech #Programming #CleanCode https://lnkd.in/gW-QtcgV
