Cleaning code and demo application

↺ Cleaning code and demo application

> In my final weeks of the Google Summer of Code 2022, I spend my time polishing code and writing and documenting all parts of my code for the final Submission for final integration into the branch master.

> To summarize, I would like to demo the functionalities of the Digikam OCR tool what I have done:

Infineon XENSIV PAS CO2 Shield2Go board enables carbon dioxide measurements - CNX Software

> Infineon has added new a shied to its Shield2Go ecosystem with the XENSIV PAS CO2 Shield2Go board integrating the company’s XENSIV PAS CO2 sensor capable of measuring carbon dioxide levels.

> We first wrote about the Shield2Go module with the OPTIGA Trust-M evaluation kit integrating a security module, but the family also includes various sensors shield and microcontroller boards notably the XMC 2Go board. The new Shield2Go board can be used for both air quality monitoring and controlled ventilation for energy savings.

Custom Printed Knobs In Just A Few Lines Of Code

> While not everyone is necessarily onboard for the CAD-via-code principle behind OpenSCAD, there’s no denying the software lends itself particularly well to parametric designs. Using a few choice variables, it’s possible to make a model in OpenSCAD that can be easily tweaked by other users — even if they have zero prior experience with CAD.

How to Compare two Integers in Java

↺ How to Compare two Integers in Java

> In Java, “Integer” is a wrapper class by the java.lang package used for constructing integer objects. It stores integer values in 128 bits. While programming in Java, there exists a chance that you need to compare two values of the same data type, such as int. Java offers different methods to compare two Integers; however, the most common method used is the Comparison Operator.

How to Get an Index of an Array Element in Java

↺ How to Get an Index of an Array Element in Java

> An array is a set of elements with the same data type and is treated as a fixed-size data structure. In Java, an array inherits the Object class and can be created dynamically. However, arrays are index-based, that’s why the first element of an array is stored at the zero indexes and the second element is at the first index, and so on.
