The New Stack·5yWhat Is WebAssembly and Why Do You Need It? – The New Stack
WebAssembly (also known as WASM) was launched in 2017 as a binary instruction format for a stack-based virtual machine. It is not designed to be used as a language itself, but rather as an effective compilation target for languages like C, C++, and Rust. WebAssembly is a low-level, assembly-like language with a compact binary format. This makes it possible for WebAssembly to deliver near-native performance.

Machine Learning Mastery·4yFunctional Programming In Python
Functional programming is a declarative paradigm. It is different from imperative paradigm that programs are built by applying and composing functions. The benefit of functional programming is to make your program less error-prone. Without the side effects, it is more predictable and easier to see the outcome. We also no need to worry about one part of the program is interfering another part.
