Programming languages have the notion of constants which means “variables that can not be mutated once declared and initialized”.Go also has almost the same meaning, but in a different context. To initialize a variable as a constant with a value of 10, we can do something like this:$$const DISCOUNT = 10$$In Go, constants mean “storing a literal to a variable”, this can be seen as a version of pattern matching in Erlang.[Literals in go](https://www.phind.com/search?cache=n05row4wk42ocrf4520s6vzm) are constructs that can create an instance of strings, numbers, booleans, composite structures, fun...

Learn how time tracking is implemented from the hardware.Time is a linear monotonically increasing value and to keep track of it, a system has to be powered to take note of every tick. For a microcomputer running an operating system that can go on and off, this means there is a need to constantly update time whenever the computer comes on, but that is not the case because of some intelligent mechanisms that computer hardware and operating systems use to keep track of the current time.## Real-Time ClockA [Real-Time Clock (RTC)](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Real-time_clock) is an electronic har...

In React, events are a way to capture user interactions with your application. They allow you to respond to clicks, key presses, form submissions, and other user actions. This article will cover the basics of handling events in React, including how to prevent default behaviour and pass event data to functions.**Basic Event Handling**You can use the prop on an element to handle an event in React. This prop takes a function that will be called when the event occurs. Here's an example:```function handleClick() {console.log('Button clicked!');}function MyComponent() {return (<button onClick={ha...

Ever felt buried in props, passing data down layer after layer of components in your React app? The Context API can help ease this situation.**What is it?**Context API is a built-in React feature for sharing data across components without manual prop drilling. It creates a context, a central store for data, that can be accessed by any component within the provider tree.**How does it work?**Imagine a context as a channel. You create a context using `createContext` and define the data it holds. Then, you wrap a part of your component tree with a `Provider`, which injects the data into the channe...
