      <title>Shortest Tour Problem (Udacity)</title>

      <guid>https://dev.to/char1iedevos/shortest-tour-problem-udacity-30j4</guid>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;Udacity's course on Theoretical Computer Science provides lots of solutions and special problems regarding the NP = P field in TCS. &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The Shortest Tour is a problem that describes whether we can find the best and shortest path of a tour in a series of distances where tour_guide = 0 initially and best_tour_guide = (tour_guide) + distance(n,n+1) for i in house(i, i+1).&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;This is an example...&lt;/p&gt;

      <title>First PHP Script..</title>
      <dc:creator>Charlie Barajas</dc:creator>

      <link>https://dev.to/char1iedevos/first-php-script-3h19</link>
      <guid>https://dev.to/char1iedevos/first-php-script-3h19</guid>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&amp;lt;?php&lt;br&gt;
//script goes here&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;$str = "Hello &amp;amp; Welcome to Simplilearn";&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;$num = 5;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;$float = 7.6;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;echo "&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h1&gt;" .$str . "&lt;h1&gt;";&lt;br&gt;
echo "&lt;h2&gt;" .$num . "&lt;h2&gt;";&lt;br&gt;
echo "&lt;h3&gt;" .$float . "&lt;h3&gt;";&lt;br&gt;
?&amp;gt;

&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;/h1&gt;
&lt;/h1&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I just created my first PHP hello world script using SimpliLearn's free introductory course on the PHP language.&lt;/p&gt;

      <title>ClassList in JS</title>

      <guid>https://dev.to/char1iedevos/classlist-in-js-1ena</guid>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;The ClassList is a JS method that adds or removes classes and helps with providing layout, formatting, font-style, and other CSS methods.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;FreeCodeCamp provides a free course on Introduction to JavaScript and is thoroughly and extensively. &lt;/p&gt;

      <title>Course on MatLab using Uni Email Membership</title>

&lt;h2&gt;
  
  
  How MATLAB is providing free courses (with university email) to help with big data and analytics.
&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Matlab is an excellent platform for learning from basic arrays to complex API and object instance tools, such as pointers and data clusters.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The OpenHPI course is amazing for learning about NLP vector database and data models for vector similarity models! The course is entirely free and has a certificate.&lt;/p&gt;

      <title>TCM Security Post</title>
      <dc:creator>Charlie Barajas</dc:creator>

      <link>https://dev.to/char1iedevos/tcm-security-post-617</link>
      <guid>https://dev.to/char1iedevos/tcm-security-post-617</guid>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://media2.dev.to/dynamic/image/width=800%2Cheight=%2Cfit=scale-down%2Cgravity=auto%2Cformat=auto/https%3A%2F%2Fdev-to-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fuploads%2Farticles%2Faaqvk5krbut6zb88enaj.png" class="article-body-image-wrapper"&gt;&lt;img src="https://media2.dev.to/dynamic/image/width=800%2Cheight=%2Cfit=scale-down%2Cgravity=auto%2Cformat=auto/https%3A%2F%2Fdev-to-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fuploads%2Farticles%2Faaqvk5krbut6zb88enaj.png" alt="Image description" width="800" height="372"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;This came from the Practical Help Desk Course on TCM Security.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I highly recommend this course for three reasons: &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;Ease of course content&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;Avoids unnecessarily complex labs but still has hands-on guides with Linux/Windows administration features&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Great for beginners entering their first IT role!&lt;/p&gt;

      <title>Memory Management in JS</title>
      <dc:creator>Charlie Barajas</dc:creator>
      <pubDate>Wed, 18 Jun 2025 02:16:36 +0000</pubDate>
      <link>https://dev.to/char1iedevos/memory-management-in-js-3g36</link>
      <guid>https://dev.to/char1iedevos/memory-management-in-js-3g36</guid>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;Hello,&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Today, I took a lecture from freecodecamp.com's Full Stack JavaScript course and learned about memory management. When a variable is created, it retains its memory address.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;function createLargeArray() {&lt;br&gt;
  let largeArray = new Array(1000000);&lt;br&gt;
  return function() {&lt;br&gt;
    console.log(largeArray.length);&lt;br&gt;
  };&lt;br&gt;
}&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;let printArrayLength = createLargeArray();&lt;br&gt;
printArrayLength();&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;This snippet demonstrates that although createLargeArray() can't be trashed, it is still closed, and the return access means that more memory is used than expected.&lt;/p&gt;
