5 Best TV Series That Every Programmer Should Watch

If you got bored of writing code all day and night then this article will surely help you to refresh your mind. Here I am sharing some tv series that revolves around programming or hacking. If you are a programmer then you must watch them.

In case I have missed any good show then mention in comment section. I will try to add it in the list.

5 Best TV Series for Programmers

1. Mr. Robot

This show is about a programmer who works as a cyber security engineer in a company during day and a vigilante hacker at night.

2. Silicon Valley

The story revolves around a silicon valley engineer who struggles to build his company named Pied Piper.

3. Person of Interest

This tv series is about a rich programmer who saves life with the help of surveillance AI that sends them information about the people involved in impending crimes.

4. Halt and Catch Fire

Another awesome programmer show which is about personal computing boom through the eyes of an engineer and a prodigy whose innovations directly confront the corporate behemoths of the time.

5. Scorpion

Based on the real life of genius Walter O’Brienm, who have an IQ of 197. He is asked by Homeland Security to build a special group of gifted individuals to troubleshoot the most difficult problems that the US & the world may encounter.

Comment below what is your favorite show among these. And don’t forget to share the article with your programmer friends.

Happy Coding!! 🙂 🙂

Rail Fence Cipher Program in C and C++[Encryption & Decryption]

Here you will get rail fence cipher program in C and C++ for encryption and decryption. It is a kind of transposition cipher which is also known as zigzag cipher. Below is an example. Here Key = 3. For encryption we write the message diagonally in zigzag form in a matrix having total rows = key and total columns = message length. Then read the matrix row wise horizontally to get encrypted message. Rail Fence Cipher Program in C #include<stdio.h> #include<string.h> void encryptMsg(char msg[], int key){ int msgLen = strlen(msg), i, j, k = -1, row = 0, col = 0; char railMatrix[key][msgLen]; for(i = 0; i < key; ++i) for(j = 0; j < msgLen; ++j) railMatrix[i][j] = '\n'; for(i = 0; i < msgLen; ++i){ railMatrix[row][col++] = msg[i]; if(row == 0 || row == key-1) k= k * (-1); row = row + k; } printf("\nEncrypted Message: "); for(i = 0; i < key; ++i) f...

Data Encryption Standard (DES) Algorithm

Data Encryption Standard is a symmetric-key algorithm for the encrypting the data. It comes under block cipher algorithm which follows Feistel structure. Here is the block diagram of Data Encryption Standard. Fig1: DES Algorithm Block Diagram [Image Source: Cryptography and Network Security Principles and Practices 4 th Ed by William Stallings] Explanation for above diagram: Each character of plain text converted into binary format. Every time we take 64 bits from that and give as input to DES algorithm, then it processed through 16 rounds and then converted to cipher text. Initial Permutation: 64 bit plain text goes under initial permutation and then given to round 1. Since initial permutation step receiving 64 bits, it contains an 1×64 matrix which contains numbers from 1 to 64 but in shuffled order. After that, we arrange our original 64 bit text in the order mentioned in that matrix. [You can see the matrix in below code] After initial permutation, 64 bit text passed throug...

Experimental: Reducing the size of .NET Core applications with Mono's Linker

The .NET team has built a linker to reduce the size of .NET Core applications. It is built on top of the excellent and battle-tested mono linker . The Xamarin tools also use this linker so it makes sense to try it out and perhaps use it everywhere! "In trivial cases, the linker can reduce the size of applications by 50%. The size wins may be more favorable or more moderate for larger applications. The linker removes code in your application and dependent libraries that are not reached by any code paths. It is effectively an application-specific dead code analysis ." - Using the .NET IL Linker I recently updated a 15 year old .NET 1.1 application to cross-platform .NET Core 2.0 so I thought I'd try this experimental linker on it and see the results. The linker is a tool one can use to only ship the minimal possible IL code and metadata that a set of programs might require to run as opposed to the full libraries. It is used by the various Xamarin products to extract...
