"Fear cuts deeper than swords." - Arya Stark, Game of Thrones
Hey there! I have some really cool news to share: we just crossed 50 subscribers on the newsletter! Thanks for making this possible, and I really hope you’re finding the content useful. On with it now.
Interesting links for the week
Instead of sending a bunch of random links your way, these are all things I’ve read or seen and found interesting and relevant enough to share!
Something that sparked my curiosity
This section is for me to share interesting things with you. I’ll be honest I haven’t touched my laptop a lot this last week because I was on vacation roaming the beautiful mountains and waterfalls of Meghalaya!
But I do have something interesting I worked on to share. I’ve always wanted to create a full-length technical course and after two months of work I finally did it! I partnered with the KodeKloud team to create my first course: Running Local LLMs With Ollama
I’d love for you all to check it out and let me know how you found it!
Golang puzzle of the week
Tony Stark has a new set of Arc Reactor cores that need to be arranged in a specific order to maximize their energy output. Each core has a unique energy level represented by an integer.
As Jarvis, Tony has given you an array of integers representing the energy levels of the Arc Reactor cores. Your task is to write a Go function that rearranges the array such that:
The array is divided into two parts: the first part contains all the odd energy levels, and the second part contains all the even energy levels.
Within each part, the energy levels should be sorted in ascending order.
Example:
Input:
cores := []int{5, 3, 2, 8, 1, 4}
Output:
[]int{1, 3, 5, 2, 4, 8}
Note that the input array will have at least 1 element. The energy levels (integers) can be positive, negative, or zero.
Here’s some code to help you get started:
package main
import (
"fmt"
"sort"
)
func SortArcReactorCores(cores []int) []int {
// Your code here
}
func main() {
cores := []int{5, 3, 2, 8, 1, 4}
fmt.Println(SortArcReactorCores(cores)) // Output: [1, 3, 5, 2, 4, 8]
}
You can write solutions to this in the Go Playground and share the link with me on LinkedIn to get a shoutout in next week’s newsletter!
