If you're trying to make sure your software is fast, or at least doesn't get slower, automated tests for performance would also be useful. But where should you start? My suggestion: start by testing big-O scaling. It's a critical aspect of your software's speed, and it doesn't require a complex benchmarking setup. In this article I'll cover: A reminder of what big-O scaling means for algorithms. Why this is such a critical performance property.

In this quiz, you'll test your understanding of the LlamaIndex in Python: A RAG Guide With Examples tutorial. By working through this quiz, you'll revisit how to create and persist an index to disk, review how to reload it, and see why persistence improves performance, lowers costs, saves time, and keeps results consistent.

To get the most out of this tutorial, you should have a basic knowledge of Python. Familiarity with general GUI programming concepts, such as event handling, widgets, and layouts, will also be beneficial. Installing NiceGUI Before using any third-party library like NiceGUI, you must install it in your working environment. Installing NiceGUI is as quick as running the python -m pip install nicegui command in your terminal or command line. This command will install the library from the Python Package Index (PyPI).

I'm excited to announce that me and Audrey will be visiting Japan from November 12 to November 24, 2025! This will be our first time in Japan, and we can't wait to explore Tokyo. Yes, we'll be in Tokyo for most of it, near the Shinjuku area, working from coffee shops, meeting some colleagues, and exploring the city during our free time.

Here's the task. I want to create a class to represent a track and field event held in a competition. This entry allows you to enter the raw results as reported by the officials-the athlete's bib number and the time they clocked in a race. It then computes the event's full results. There's more we could add to make this class more complete. But I won't. You can create a list of athletes that are competing in the track and field meeting:
