C# Readonly

TslaFebruary 27, 2023February 28, 20230

In this code snippet, we will take a look at the readonly keyword in C#. Obviously, a variable/field marked as readonly can not be modified after it was set. However, readonly can be set at run time in the constructor or when it’s declared(at compile time) unlike const which can only be set at compile

C# Code Benchmarking

TslaFebruary 27, 2023February 27, 20230

In this code snippet, we’ll see how to benchmark C# code. Benchmarking can be useful to find out how well a certain piece of code is performing. We can look at how much time it takes to execute it and how much memory gets used in the process.

C# Tuples

TslaFebruary 27, 2023February 27, 20230

In this code snippet, we will take a look at tuples in C#. Tuples allow you to quickly and easily create objects. You can for example use them as a variable or method return data type.

C# Ranges

TslaFebruary 27, 2023February 27, 20230

In this code snippet, we will take a look at ranges in C#. Ranges give you a quick and easy syntax to get a range/interval of elements from a collection. For example, if an array has 10 elements you can specify a range from the 2nd to the 5th element and that slice of the array will be returned to you.

C# Boxing

TslaFebruary 27, 2023January 16, 20240

In this code snippet, we will take a look at boxing and unboxing in C#. Boxing happens when a value data type is converted to an object while unboxing is when that object gets converted back into a value.

C# Dynamic Keyword

TslaFebruary 26, 2023January 24, 20240

Dynamic allows you to save any data type into a variable or pass any type into a method/return any type from a method.

C# DateTime

TslaFebruary 15, 2023February 27, 20230

In this code snippet, we will take a look at DateTime in C#. DateTime is used to represent dates and times in code. The DateTime class contains many useful methods to manipulate the date(formatting the date, adding/subtracting years, months, days, hours, …). Let’s have a look at the code below to see how to use DateTime.

TslaFebruary 11, 2023March 2, 20240

In this post, I’ll show you how to program the Attiny microcontrollers via the Arduino IDE using an Arduino board as an ISP programmer.

ESP32 WiFi Camera

TslaFebruary 4, 2023March 2, 20240

In this post, I’ll show you how to program the ESP32 Camera board to live stream the video feed to your browser.

iCE40 FPGA iCE aStick with IceStorm Tutorial

Lattice iCE40 FPGA IceStorm Tutorial

TslaNovember 21, 2022March 18, 20240

This tutorial will cover the hardware and software setup for the icestick development board that uses an iCE40 FPGA. The IceStorm open source toolchain will be used for programming the board instead of the vendor tools. For the demonstration, we’ll make a simple binary counter that will display its value with the onboard LEDs. The logic design will be defined/coded with Verilog.
