series-data-structures A Deep Dive into Python Dictionaries In the previous post we took a look into the different list data structures that python provides us. Today, we will do the same for dictionary. A dictionary is implemented using a hash table, so lets take a moment to understand how a hash table works.
series-data-structures A Deep Dive into Python Lists In this article, we take a deep dive into understanding list-like data structures that are available in python. By the end, you will have a good understanding of all the options that python provides us.

advanced "multiple bases have instance lay-out conflict" What does this error mean? This is one of the few cases where python gives a confusing error message. Let us take a deeper look into this, and in the process get a chance to understand some CPython internals.
series-monads Combining Monads: Revisiting the API sequencing problem We will now see how we can combine the functionality of multiple monads. To do this, let us revisit the API sequencing problem.
series-monads Writer Monad and the Tracing Robot In this article we will learn about a new monad – the Writer monad
functions Y Combinator in Python It's time to take a break from practical applications of functional programming to something less practical, but very interesting to know 😎
