The Quick and Easy Way to Analyze Numpy Arrays

The quickest and easiest way to analyze NumPy arrays is by using the numpy.array() method. This method allows you to quickly and easily analyze the values contained in a numpy array. This method can also be used to find the sum, mean, standard deviation, max, min, and other useful analysis of the value contained within a numpy array. Sum You can find the sum of Numpy arrays using the np.sum() function.  For example:  import numpy as np  a = np.array([1,2,3,4,5])  b = np.array([6,7,8,9,10])  result = np.sum([a,b])  print(result)  # Output will be 55 Mean You can find the mean of a Numpy array using the np.mean() function. This function takes in an array as an argument and returns the mean of all the values in the array.  For example, the mean of a Numpy array of [1,2,3,4,5] would be  result = np.mean([1,2,3,4,5])  print(result)  #Output: 3.0 Standard Deviation To find the standard deviation of a Numpy array, you can use the NumPy std() function. This function takes in an array as a par

10 Kafka Interview Questions That Recently Asked

Kafka Interview Questions

Here're ten interview questions that were asked during Kafka's interview.  These are useful to update your knowledge.


1. What is Kafka?

Kafka is a framework of Publisher and Subscribe. It reads messages from the Producer and allows them to read by Subscribers. It keeps store all the producer messages in the form of topics (underlying partitions). It also maintains logs.


2. What is a Consumer group?

Each consumer is part of some Consumer group. By adding more consumers to a Consumer group, you can balance the load. In general, the Consumer group reads data from the same topic. The number of partitions in a Topic always should be the same as Consumers in a particular CG (consumer group).


3. What is Fault-Tolerance?

Each partition is replicated on multiple servers. So, when one partition is failed, the other backup will deliver. So this concept is called Fault-tolerance.


4. Can we decrease the partitions that we created?

No, you can't decrease the partitions once created. But, you can increase the partitions.


5. What is the architecture of Kafka?

The architecture is a combination of Producer, Broker, Subscriber, and Zookeeper. It can handle messages from multiple producers. It can have multiple Brokers (Sometimes it is called Kafka Broker). Zoooker oversees the Kafka cluster and has information about consumer's messages.


6. How to start Kafka Broker?

In Linux environments, you can start using $ bin/kafka-server-start.sh config/server-1.properties

$ bin/kafka-server-start.sh config/server-2.properties

So, you start Kafka server using different Server properties. Here Server-1, Server-2, and so on.


7. What is Leader Balancing in Kafka?

A partition in a Broker acts as a leader. The partitions of replicas are followers of this leader. In case of failure, the followers act as leads and deliver messages to consumers. This is called Leader balancing.


8. What is the real use of Broker?

The Broker's main functionality is to handle the storage of messages in topics.


9. What are the two main functions of Zookeeper?

  • Oversee the function of the Kafka cluster (all the nodes)
  • It commits each offset after reading by the consumer. So, in case of Consumer failure, with the help of Zooker, the consumer starts reading from the next offset (after it recovered from failure)

 10. What is the Retention period?

The amount of Time that Kafka stores messages in Topics are called the retention period. There are two types of retentions - Time-based and Storage Based

How to Decode TLV Quickly

-

TLV format contains three parts Tag, Length, and value. In a credit card or financial transactions, the TLV protocol supports this format. Below, you will find the ideas to decode TLV data quickly.  According to IBM , the tag tells what type of data it is. The length field denotes the length of the value. The value-field denotes the actual value. Structure of TLV. TLV comprises three field values. Tag Length Value How to Decode TLV The EMV labs developed tags which in turn part of EMV protocol. Each tag has an unique meaning. And the Tag and Length together takes 1 to 4 bytes of memory. 1. The Best example for TLV. Below is the way to decode the EMV tag. The first part of the TLV format is TAG. The second part is LENGTH, and finally the VALUE. Syntax of EMV tag: [Tag][Value Length][Value] (ex. " 9F40 05 F000F0A001 ") where,  Tag Name =  9F40 Value Length (in bytes) =  05  Value (Hex representation of bytes. Example, "F0" – 1-byte) =  F000F0A001 Finally, what is 9F40

Here are seven amazing Infosys AWS interview questions for your quick reference. These are also asked in TCS. Infosys and TCS AWS interview questions 1). What is AWS? Amazon Web Services (AWS) provides on-demand computing resources and services in the cloud, with pay-as-you-go pricing. For example, you can run a server on AWS that you can log on to, configure, secure, and run just as you would a server that's sitting in front of you 2). What you can do with AWS? Store public or private data. Host a static website. These websites use client-side technologies (such as HTML, CSS, and JavaScript) to display content that doesn't change frequently. A static website doesn't require server-side technologies (such as PHP and ASP.NET). Host a dynamic website or web app. These websites include classic three-tier applications, with web, application, and database tiers. Support students or online training programs. Process business and scientific data. Handle peak loads. AWS Quest
