Image
 Amazon Relational Database Service (AWS RDS) makes it easy to set up, operate, and scale a relational database in the cloud. Instead of managing servers, patching OS, and handling backups manually, AWS RDS takes care of the heavy lifting so you can focus on building applications and data pipelines. In this blog, we’ll walk through how to create an AWS RDS instance , key configuration choices, and best practices you should follow in real-world projects. What is AWS RDS? AWS RDS is a managed database service that supports popular relational engines such as: Amazon Aurora (MySQL / PostgreSQL compatible) MySQL PostgreSQL MariaDB Oracle SQL Server With RDS, AWS manages: Database provisioning Automated backups Software patching High availability (Multi-AZ) Monitoring and scaling Prerequisites Before creating an RDS instance, make sure you have: An active AWS account Proper IAM permissions (RDS, EC2, VPC) A basic understanding of: ...

6 Python file Methods Real Usage

-
Files always have data in them. For different purposes, you need methods to deal with them. These six file methods of use in this case.


Related: 5 top file modes in python.


Python file methods

Python file methods

Below are the top six file methods in python:
  1. Tell()
  2. Seek()
  3. Flush()
  4. Fileno()
  5. truncate()
  6. isatty()

1. tell()


The usage of tell method is it returns the cursor-position of the file-pointer from the beginning of the file. It tells the current cursor position. The position starts from zero, which is same as of an index.


Syntax: 

fileobject.tell()


2. seek()


The usage of seek method is cursor position, from one position to the specified position from the beginning of the file, it moves. Here, the cursor will be sought to a particular location.

Syntax: 

fileobject.seek(position)


3. flush()


The usage of flush method is clean out the internal buffer. Before writing the text in the file, it is best practice to clear out that the internal buffer can be cleared.

Syntax: 

fileobject.flush()


4. fileno()


The usage of  fileno method is file-number i.e. a file descriptor as an integer value it returns. If an operating system does not use a file descriptor of the file then an error may occur.

Syntax: 

fileobject.fileno()


5. truncate()


The usage of truncate method is on the given number of bytes it resizes the file. The current position will be used if the size is not specified.

Syntax: 

fileobject.truncate(size)


6. isatty()

The usage of isatty method is Boolean. True if the file is connected to an end device like (tty) device else will return False.

Syntax:

fileobject.isatty()

Step-by-Step Guide to Reading Different Files in Python

-
Image
 In the world of data science, automation, and general programming, working with files is unavoidable. Whether you’re dealing with CSV reports, JSON APIs, Excel sheets, or text logs, Python provides rich and easy-to-use libraries for reading different file formats. In this guide, we’ll explore how to read different files in Python , with code examples and best practices. 1. Reading Text Files ( .txt ) Text files are the simplest form of files. Python’s built-in open() function handles them effortlessly. Example: # Open and read a text file with open ( "sample.txt" , "r" ) as file: content = file.read() print (content) Explanation: "r" mode means read . with open() automatically closes the file when done. Best Practice: Always use with to handle files to avoid memory leaks. 2. Reading CSV Files ( .csv ) CSV files are widely used for storing tabular data. Python has a built-in csv module and a powerful pandas library. Using cs...

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...
