Hi everyone! , I’m Samyak, 1st Year undergrad at IIT Roorkee, studying Applied Mathematics, and this past week I tried understanding what Ray tracing is, and this blog would be a brief description of that journey.

Alright, it’s been quite a while! With the ‘completion’ of a basic bare-metal programming model, this blog describes my journey in Operating Systems development, from a simple bare-metal program to an almost cross-hosted operating system, all built from scratch! Along the way, I got a glimpse of why operating systems…

If you are fascinated by the word “parallel” or “concurrent”, by the programs that run on supercomputers, by random jargons like “linearizable”, or anything high performant, then this is the guide you’re looking for! In this guide, we lay down the pre-requisites and the foundational knowledge resources. Finally, we explain…

Making your first video game is a fun experience on its own. The hope of making it all work and playing yourself one day along with the regular encounters with life-sucking bugs makes it an emotional rollercoaster. The feeling of even making a small character move at your control can’t be put into words. The dream of roaming in a world that is entirely my own is what kept me going. To learn to make video games there is no better way than getting your hands dirty. Choose a suitable game engine like Unity3D or Unreal and dive right into the development phase. Even though it sounds simple, most people don’t have a clue where to begin their project, how to…

A child’s mind is full of dreams and possibilities. They can fly above the highest cloud or dive in the deepest sea, run faster than wind or break walls with a single punch. There are no boundaries or restrictions. …

From ancient times, the transfer of the information from one place to another securely was a great challenge. Cryptography is not a new term. The concepts of cryptography had also been used earlier for the secret conversation. These days the use of cryptography has been expanded. It is used for…

Primality Test: Composite Numbers: It is a positive integer that has at least one divisor other than 1 and itself e.g. 10 is composite with factors 1,2,5 and 10. Prime Numbers: It is a number which is only divisible by two numbers; 1 and itself e.g. 7. A lot of…

Many of you might have heard about the term Competitive Programming and would have wondered what it actually means. I am writing this blog to provide a brief intro to it as well as tell you about the requirements to start pursuing it. Even if you are not a computer…
