  Introduction If you’re working with cloud data, especially on AWS, chances are you’ll encounter data stored in CSV files inside an Amazon S3 bucket . Whether you're building a data pipeline or a quick analysis tool, reading data directly from S3 in Python is a fast, reliable, and scalable way to get started. In this blog post, we’ll walk through: Setting up access to S3 Reading a CSV file using Python and Boto3 Displaying headers and rows Tips to handle larger datasets Let’s jump in! What You’ll Need An AWS account An S3 bucket with a CSV file uploaded AWS credentials (access key and secret key) Python 3.x installed boto3 and pandas libraries installed (you can install them via pip) pip install boto3 pandas Step-by-Step: Read CSV from S3 Let’s say your S3 bucket is named my-data-bucket , and your CSV file is sample-data/employees.csv . ✅ Step 1: Import Required Libraries import boto3 import pandas as pd from io import StringIO boto3 is...

10 Blockchain Smart Contract Interview Questions

Here are the top ten interview questions on Blockchain smart contracts. Here you will know about smart-contract, what language and IDE you need to develop. Useful for interviews as well.

1. What is a Smart Contract?


A smart contract is an executable code on the blockchain intended to digitally facilitate, verify, validate, and enforce the rules and regulations of an application. Smart contracts allow the performance of credible transactions without third parties. These transactions are trackable and irreversible.


2. Where the smart Contract code resides?


The smart contract is deployed in a sandbox environment and identified by a 160-bit account address like any other participants on the blockchain network. It executes on the virtual machine (VM) on the blockchain node and is identified by an account number.


3. Smart Contract is it API?


Yes, it is like a class. It has methods. These are useful to process transactions in the Blockchain framework.


4. What are the six functions of Smart-contract?


  • It represents a business logic layer for the verification and validation of application-specific conditions.
  • It allows for the specification of rules for operations on the blockchain.
  • It facilitates the implementation of policies for the transfer of assets in a decentralized network.
  • It embeds functions that can be invoked by messages or function calls from participant accounts or other smart contract accounts. These messages and their input parameters, along with additional metadata such as the sender's address and timestamp, result in transactions recorded in the distributed ledger of the blockchain.
  • It acts as the software-based intermediator for decentralized blockchain-based applications.
  • It adds programmability and intelligence to the blockchain through the specification of the parameters of its functions.

5. What are the three key elements of a Smart Contract?

  1. Data
  2. Functions that operate on the data
  3. Rules for operations

6. How does it looks like a Smart Contract?


  • Name of the class
  • Data definitions
  • Function definitions

7. What is the name of the Programming language you use?


Solidity is an object-oriented, high-level language for implementing smart contracts, influenced by C++, Python, and JavaScript. Solidity is statically typed and supports inheritance, libraries, and user-defined types; it also provides many useful features for developing blockchain applications.


8. What is the name of IDE?


Open the Remix web IDE in your browser.


9. Who can access the Smart contract code?


When a smart contract code is deployed on a blockchain, it is accessible to anybody who has a defined identity on that blockchain.


10. Best example of a Blockchain smart contract?

Airline System.

SQL Query: 3 Methods for Calculating Cumulative SUM

-
Image
SQL provides various constructs for calculating cumulative sums, offering flexibility and efficiency in data analysis. In this article, we explore three distinct SQL queries that facilitate the computation of cumulative sums. Each query leverages different SQL constructs to achieve the desired outcome, catering to diverse analytical needs and preferences. Using Window Functions (e.g., PostgreSQL, SQL Server, Oracle) SELECT id, value, SUM(value) OVER (ORDER BY id) AS cumulative_sum  FROM your_table; This query uses the SUM() window function with the OVER clause to calculate the cumulative sum of the value column ordered by the id column. Using Subqueries (e.g., MySQL, SQLite): SELECT t1.id, t1.value, SUM(t2.value) AS cumulative_sum FROM your_table t1 JOIN your_table t2 ON t1.id >= t2.id GROUP BY t1.id, t1.value ORDER BY t1.id; This query uses a self-join to calculate the cumulative sum. It joins the table with itself, matching rows where the id in the first table is greater than...

5 SQL Queries That Popularly Used in Data Analysis

Image
 Here are five popular SQL queries frequently used in data analysis. 1. SELECT with Aggregations Summarize data by calculating aggregates like counts, sums, averages, etc. SELECT department, COUNT(*) as employee_count, AVG(salary) as average_salary FROM employees GROUP BY department; 2. JOIN Operations  Combine data from multiple tables based on a related column. SELECT e.employee_id, e.name, d.department_name FROM employees e JOIN departments d ON e.department_id = d.department_id; 3. WHERE Clause for Filtering Filter records based on specified conditions. SELECT * FROM sales WHERE sale_date BETWEEN '2024-01-01' AND '2024-12-31'   AND amount > 1000; 4. ORDER BY Clause for Sorting Sort results in ascending or descending order based on one or more columns. SELECT product_name, price FROM products ORDER BY price DESC; 5. GROUP BY with HAVING Clause Group records and apply conditions to the aggregated results. SELECT department, SUM(salary) as total_salaries FROM employ...
