Two things we can do with C and Python integration.

1. C Extensions for Python

   In other words, we can write python methods in pure C.

2. Embedding Python a

The reasons for doing #1 are obvious because we can make speed improvements. For #2, it is due to transporting Python libraries over to C.

How to compare 2 csv files such that I can identify:
* Added/Modified/Removed Rows but know specifically which header changed

There are two ways to look at diffs:
1. Line-by-line diffs

Line-by-line diffs are dumb and can't tell what a "Modified" item is.

2. Diffs with primary keys.

Hex-style bit mapping

Because bytes tend to be longer, we'll want to use hex style mapping to represent bits. We know that hexadecimal is base 16 and bits are base 2 which translates to 4 bits = 1 hex.

Here's an example of why we want this case. If you have 16 bits, it looks like: 000011111111 but 0xFF is easier to read.

Here's a list of mapping for wanting only 1 bits: 0 -> 0x0 1 -> 0x1

# rs.initiate() is playing 2 roles:
# * required for my local mongo setup
# * it can also be used to test a connection but you can use almost any other evaluation command. 

# The command below runs a mongo check in a loop and times out after a minute.
# Why not use "wait-for-it.sh"? That establishes a tcp connection check but you could still run into a connection error
# if you run a single mongo connection check so we still need to loop.

Setting up database for testing

1. To build the image (since not hosted on dockerhub), follow the instructions on this page
   • If the dockerfile is incorrect, it's probably them just failing at README's. Try docker build -f Dockerfile.xe -t oracle/database:11.2.0.2-xe .
   • The README also provides more info. Under that page, search for the section referring to this specific image.
2. Do a test run: docker run -d -e ORACLE_PWD=oracle --shm-size="1g" -p 1521:1521 -p 8080:8080 oracle/database:11.2.0.2-xe (More details on --shm-size: oracle/docker-images#458)
   • The default database name will be 'xe.'
3. Add cx_Oracle / sqlalchemy to your system. Example here

How to onboard a new engineer?

• Show general architecture through diagrams and concrete examples.
• There should be clear enough instructions that a new onboarding engineer can just look through a document and follow that to setup a local development environment and be able to set breakpoints and play around with the environment. (Even startups with smaller code bases will fail to follow up on this because it's not "priority" but it definitely should be.)
