If you have to fail in something, you better fail fast, so you can correct your path. In different fields, “Failing Fast” will take a different cosmetic form; but, the concepts stays the same….

Migrating To Python From Java
I have always said that: if you know how to program, you can code in any language. Well, while I still stay by the above statement, I want to add something to it though. Yes, you can absolutely code in any language, but make sure that you learn about the peculiarity of each coding language….
Piecewise-Linear Functions: Part II
In Part I (here), we discussed what are Piecewise-Linear Functions (PLFs). In Part II, this document, we are going to discuss how to estimate the coefficients. As it was mentioned in Part I, if we do not need to guarantee the continuity, all you need to do is to just fit a line to each…
Piecewise-Linear Functions: Part I
We are going to divide this document in two parts. The first part, this document, we are going to discuss piecewise linear functions (PLFs) and how to implement one in Python. The second part, Part II, we will discuss how to fit the coefficients, detect the break-points locations, and even optimize the number of the…
