Phantom Types Are Not Spooky

Discover how phantom types enhance the builder pattern in Scala, ensuring all steps are complete before object creation. See practical examples like a database connection builder and learn how compile-time checks improve type safety and prevent errors.

Understanding Union Types in Scala 3

Discover the advantages of union types and flow typing in Scala 3. Learn how union types reduce verbosity and runtime overhead compared to Either, and how flow typing enhances type safety and code readability. Learn to handle null values explicitly.

Using Scala 3 Explicit Nulls

Learn about Scala 3's explicit nulls feature, which improves type safety by making nullability part of the type system. Discover how Null is no longer connected to AnyRef, reducing null pointer exceptions and enhancing code robustness. Explore the benefits of Scala 3's updated type hierarchy.

Visual transformation of Python code into byte code with digital and circuit elements.

Exploring Python Byte Code - Disassembler

Discover Python Byte Code and how the Python Virtual Machine (PVM) interprets it. Learn to use the dis module to examine byte code and optimize your Python programs. This article offers a comprehensive introduction to byte code, with practical examples and insights into Python's execution model.
