Day 5 of My Year-Long DSA Growth Journey ๐
Selam beteseboch,
Iโve resumed my DSA learning after a brief project break and kicked things off with sorting algorithms, focusing on the Bubble Sort. I worked on several challenges to strengthen my grasp of this concept:
1- Basic Bubble Sort Implementation
2- Count Swaps in Bubble Sort
3- Sort in Descending Order
4- Optimized Bubble Sort
5- Maximum Consecutive Swaps
6- Bubble Sort on Strings
This is just the beginning! Stay tuned as I dive deeper into DSA, essential for any software and AI developer. ๐ป๐จโ๐ป

Hello Tech Nerds,
Today was a super productive day! I covered several key concepts in both my AI and MuleSoft journeys:
1- Programming, Databases, and Software:
I delved into scripting, assembly, query, interpreted, and compiled languages, and learned about their pros and cons. I also began exploring the basics of databases.
2- RAML in MuleSoft:
I deepened my knowledge of RAML (RESTful API Modeling Language) and practiced API design in Anypoint Platform by developing a used marketplace API. Hereโs a sneak peek at the API I designed:

๐ I was taking a look at CSS units from The Odin Project (TOP) and want to share some concepts about them!
What Are CSS Units?
CSS units are measurements used to define the size, spacing, and positioning of elements on a web page. They help create layouts that adapt to different screen sizes and improve the overall responsiveness of designs. CSS units are divided into absolute and relative units.
Types of CSS Units
1-Absolute Units:
Definition: Fixed measurements that do not change based on other factors (like screen size or font size).
Example:
โ Pixels (px): Fixed size. Great for borders and precise dimensions
2- Relative Units:
Definition: Measurements that are relative to other elements, allowing for more flexible and responsive designs.
Examples:
โ Percentages (%): Relative to parent elements. Perfect for fluid layouts.
โ Ems (em): Based on the parent font size. Good for scalable text.
โ Rems (rem): Relative to root font size, ensuring consistency.
3- Viewport Units:
โ Viewport Width (vw): 1% of the viewportโs width. Great for responsiveness.
โ Viewport Height (vh): 1% of the viewportโs height. Useful for full-screen sections.
Understanding the difference between absolute and relative units is key to creating responsive designs. Try experimenting with them in your projects!

}2- Relative Units:

Examples:
โ Percentages (%): Relative to parent elements. Perfect for fluid layouts.
.child {
width: 50%; /* 50% of parent width */
}
โ Ems (em): Based on the parent font size. Good for scalable text.
.text {
font-size: 1.5em; /* 1.5 times parent font size */
}
โ Rems (rem): Relative to root font size, ensuring consistency.
.heading {
font-size: 2rem; /* 2 times root font size */
}3- Viewport Units:
โ Viewport Width (vw): 1% of the viewportโs width. Great for responsiveness.
.full-width {
width: 100vw; /* Full width of viewport */
}
โ Viewport Height (vh): 1% of the viewportโs height. Useful for full-screen sections.
.hero {
height: 100vh; /* Full height of viewport */
}

Day 31 of My Tech Journey (Oct 22, 2024)
Hello folks,
Apologies for missing my update yesterday due to a few tasks, but the streak remains unbroken, and I'm here to share it now!
Yesterday, I continued my deep dive into several concepts, sticking to my commitment to learning and growing each day:
1- The Odin Project (TOP): I delved into browser default styles and the importance of resetting and normalizing them. I also explored various CSS units and their powerful role in building responsive applications.
2- Completed Software, Databases, and Programming Course: While it was a beginner-level course, it was valuable for revisiting foundational concepts in software, database operations, backups, and basic programming. It's always good to reinforce the basics.
This is just the startโstay tuned as I keep pushing forward! Letโs learn together by sharing our progress.

Day 6 of My Year-Long DSA Growth Journey
Yesterday, I focused on Selection Sort as part of my learning on sorting algorithms. ๐งโ๐ป Here's a quick overview:
๐ข Selection Sort:
Selection sort is a comparison-based algorithm where the list is divided into two parts: a sorted and an unsorted part. It repeatedly selects the smallest (or largest) element from the unsorted portion and swaps it with the first unsorted element, moving the boundary of the sorted section by one.
๐ป Problems I Worked On Using Selection Sort:
1- Sort an Array
2- Sort Characters by Frequency
3- Kth Smallest Element
4- Sort a List of Tuples
5- Sort Even and Odd Indices Separately
6- Maximum Number After K Swaps
7- Find Duplicate in an array
Each problem helped me understand different use cases for selection sort and sharpen my implementation skills.
Stay tuned for more updates as I continue this journey!
