Understanding Breadboard (400 Point)

To use the Breadboard, we have to understand how the circuit is connected inside the Breadboard.

There are 2 columns with + and - signs from the left of you, then there are 5 columns named as a b c d e , then another 5 columns named as f g h i j then again + and - signs.


Only the sign lines, along the column has connection. That is, there are 4 column connection along the + and - signs to keep that 4 columns to have independent connections.


In case of the alphabet columns, the connections are not in that direction as it has with sign lines. In alphabet columns, the connection exist along the rows which are described by using the numbers from 1 to 30. Simply, there are 30 rows of conductors. With that, there is a discontinuity between e and f columns that breaks the alphabet columns into two parts as a b c d e remain in one side and f g h i j in other side. Hence, there are 60 rows of conductors.


Since, you understood the concept of the breadboard, you can now try some simple circuits with LEDs, resistors and batteries.

Try this:
Connect the LED's anode (longer leg) to e1 and shorter one to e2. Then connect a resistor's  (try with smaller ones) leg to d2 and next leg to d3. Note that in resistors you need not to worry about the direction of the flow of the current. Now connect the anode point of battery to a1 and cathode point to a3.

LED works? šŸ˜

Hello World project in ROS on Windows 10

We've seen how to install ROS in Windows 10 in this article, this is the time to start programming. What is the very first thing we do once we setup a new Programming Language? Hello World !!! Lets see how to write Hello World in ROS on Windows machine. Before going into the programming, make sure you've installed Gedit on your Windows machine. You can get it from here. Also, setup the path for Gedit and restart your machine to ensure the path definition works. First open the ROS terminal and check for the working directory. We have to be in the catkin workspace. If you've already created it, go to that directory. Or else, create it like this. Create a src folder inside catkin_ws. Inside that newly created src folder, lets create a new package in it. The command to create a ROS package is as follows. >catkin_create_pkg [PACKAGE_NAME] [DEPENDENT_PACKAGE_1] ....[DEPENDENT_PACKAGE_N] ‘std_msgs’ and ‘roscpp’ were added as optional dependent packages...

SQL Joins

You’ll nearly always need to connect many tables if you want to extract anything useful out of data. A join clause in SQL joins columns from one or more tables into a new table, similar to a join operation in relational algebra. In this article, let’s see how the joins work in SQL. We are going to explore the following SQL Joins.   ∘ 1 — (INNER) JOIN   ∘ 2 — LEFT (OUTER) JOIN   ∘ 3 — RIGHT (OUTER) JOIN   ∘ 4 — FULL (OUTER) JOIN AND UNION   ∘ When to use it? Also, I’m going to use the following tables for the above-mentioned SQL Joins. 1 — (INNER) JOIN Returns records with values in both tables that are the same. Image from Author As long as the condition is met, the INNER JOIN keyword selects all rows from both tables. This keyword will produce a result-set by merging all rows from both tables that satisfy the criteria, i.e. the common field’s value will be the same. Syntax: SELECT table1.column1,table1.column2,table2.column1,…. FROM table1 INNER JOIN ...

Collection Framework in Java

Data Structure As a definition, the data structure is a specific method of organizing data in a computer so that it may be used efficiently. In this article, we are going to see about the Collection Framework which enables us to implement some important Data Structures available on Java. Topics covered:   ∘ Data Structure   ∘ Collection Framework   ∘ Class vs Interface   ∘ Lists   ∘ Set   ∘ Map   ∘ Difference between List, Set, and Map interface in Java Collection Framework A Java collection is a grouping of separate objects that are represented as a single entity. Java collections, like data, provide all actions such as searching, sorting, insertion, modification, deletion, and so on. Java Collections is a fairly broad topic, and as a newbie, it might be tough to find your way around. We’ve covered all you need to know to get started with Java Collections.
