Web Code Geeks Web Developers Resource Center

Here at Web Code Geeks we know how much you love books about programming; we are geeks ourselves. After all, a programmer that respects himself should always have his face in a book, he has to keep up with the latest technologies and developments. For this reason, we have decided to distribute 9 of our books for free. You can ...

As this series grows, I’ve started poking at seemingly simple problems to expose their complexity. This time, I thought it would be interesting to look at how to convert a string to lowercase. As it turns out, there’s a really straightforward solution (lower()), but I think it’s worth looking at a few homemade solutions first. For instance, we could try ...

Remember learning to round in grade school? Me too! The only problem is I don’t use the idea very often. As a result, I don’t always remember how to round a number in programming contexts like Python. Luckily, I’ve pieced together a little article for myself. Hopefully, you get some value out of it as well. As it turns out, ...

WordPress is powering 35% of website. And while it may not be seen as very complex or interesting, it is one of the most prevalent technologies of our time. And many developers, even if they are not working with PHP, have to support some WordPress installation (e.g. a blog like this one). And unfortunately, there are still basic things that ...

If you’re working with Python for the first time, you might be interested in learning how to store data. For example, you might want to collect a list of exam scores, so you can average them. If so, the list data structure gets the job done. But, how do you create a list in Python? That’s the topic of today’s ...

As Python is increasingly used for computation, it becomes more important for math related resources to be made available. To aid in that effort, I figured I’d share a few ways to compute absolute value in Python. As it turns out, there are a few ways to compute absolute value in Python. First, there’s the abs() function which comes built ...

As with most articles in this series, I was doing some browsing on Google, and I found that some folks had an interest in learning how to obfuscate code in Python. Naturally, I thought that would be a fun topic. By no means am I an expert, but I’m familiar with the idea. As a result, treat this like a ...

Every once in awhile, I like to revisit Python fundamentals to see if I can learn anything new about the language. This time around I thought it would be fun to look at a few different ways to increment a number in Python. As it turns out, there two straightforward ways to increment a number in Python. First, we could ...

Earlier in this series, I wrote a couple of articles on how to sort different types of lists in Python. For instance, I wrote one article on how to sort a list of strings. Then, later I wrote an article on how to sort a list of dictionaries. In both of those article, I used a few elegant solutions that ...

During the first weekend of the semester, I got inspired to do some Python development. Out of the inspiration came the latest feature of the Image Titler took: logo insertion. In this article, we’ll take a look at what that means and how it was implemented. What Is Logo Insertion? As far as names are concerned, logo insertion isn’t a ...
