Claude Code for Beginners: Step-by-Step AI Coding Tutorial

Image
 Artificial Intelligence is changing how developers write software. From generating code to fixing bugs and explaining complex logic, AI tools are becoming everyday companions for programmers. One such powerful tool is Claude Code , powered by Anthropic’s Claude AI model. If you’re a beginner or  an experienced developer looking to improve productivity, this guide will help you understand  what Claude Code is, how it works, and how to use it step-by-step . Let’s get started. What is Claude Code? Claude Code is an AI-powered coding assistant built on top of Anthropic’s Claude models. It helps developers by: Writing code from natural language prompts Explaining existing code Debugging errors Refactoring code for better readability Generating tests and documentation In simple words, you describe what you want in plain English, and Claude Code helps turn that into working code. It supports multiple programming languages, such as: Python JavaScri...

Oracle 12C 'Bitmap Index' benefits over B-tree Index

#Oracle 12C 'Bitmap Index' benefits over B-tree Index: A bitmap index has a significantly different structure from a B-tree index in the leaf node of the index. It stores one string of bits for each possible value (the cardinality) of the column being indexed. Note: One string of BITs means -Each tupple of possible value it assigns '1' bit in a string.So, all the BITs become a string ( This is an example, on which column you created BIT map index) The length of the string of bits is the same as the number of rows in the table being indexed. In addition to saving a tremendous amount of space compared to traditional indexes, a bitmap index can provide dramatic improvements in response time because Oracle can quickly remove potential rows from a query containing multiple WHERE clauses long before the table itself needs to be accessed. Multiple bitmaps can use logical AND and OR operations to determine which rows to access from the table. Although you ca...
