Python (Not the snake)

Python is a very popular programming language that many programmers incorporate into their projects. What you're doing right now has some sort of python script behind it. Python first began being used in the late 1980's (1989 to be exact) when is creator needed a language to use for small sided projects. Guido wrote,
 "In December 1989, I was looking for a "hobby" 
programming project that would keep me occupied
 during the week around Christmas. My office ... would be closed,
but I had a home computer, and not much else on my hands. 
I decided to write an interpreter for the new scripting language 
I had been thinking about lately: a descendant of ABC
 that would appeal to Unix/C hackers. I chose Python as
 a working title for the project, being in a slightly 
irreverent mood (and a big fan of Monty Python's Flying Circus).
— Guido van Rossum"

Pythons five main philosophizes include:
  • Beautiful is better than ugly
  • Explicit is better than implicit
  • Simple is better than complex
  • Complex is better than complicated
  • Readability counts
These rules are what make python so great. It's easy to read, making is easier to debug and change lines of code throughout your coding experience with python. It's also fairly simple when compared to many other programming languages this makes the programming process a lot faster when compared to programming in Java or C++.

    Yes, this is the type of work I am expecting from you. Interesting for the rest of us, and right up your alley of interest.

Computer Programming

Computer Programming by:Matthew Derenda Programmable devices have been dated back to almost 1200 ad. However the first actual computer program is dated at 1843 by Ada Lovelace for a Analytical Engine. Programming is basically writing or coding a program to have a input variable and an output. You code the program to collect data the user is doing than take that data and output it somehow. For instance you code a program that detects when a person is running and the speed they are moving at, than calculating that information and displaying the speed the person was running at on a screen.

Quantum Core Computing

This is an example of a current quantum core computer. Quantum core computing: is soon becoming a reality with many advances in computer engineering. Quantum computing is  computing  using  quantum-mechanical   phenomena , such as  superposition  and  entanglement . They are very different from the normal binary computers that use primarily transistors . As of 2018 quantum computing is becoming a reality with many advances and governments funding the quantum computing research. Many people are working for these computers because they can solve equations much faster than normal computers, some engineers and scientists estimate that the quantum computers are over 100,000,000 x faster than normal computers. As of today IBM, Google, and D-Wave systems are the most advanced in the world of quantum computing.

A computer engineer What is Computer Engineering? Computer engineering is the branch of engineering that integrates electronic engineering with computer sciences. Computer engineers design and develop computer systems and other technological devices. Computer hardware engineers research, design, develop and test computer systems and components such as processors, circuit boards, memory devices, networks and routers. Here is a list of some Computer Hardware a Engineer might work on: microprocessors; memory chips: random-access memory (RAM), read-only memory (ROM) and nonvolatile re-writable flash memory. data storage devices: hard disks, solid-state drives and optical drives; input devices: keyboards, mice, joysticks and gaming controllers, cameras, microphones, scanners, touch screens and remote sensors; output devices: printers, monitors, audio devices and remote controls; and networking components: adapters, modems, switches and routers.
