A short circuit occurs when a current flows through an electric circuit without resistance. If electrons flow without being impeded in some way, excess heat will be caused by the friction of these electrons moving in the conductive material. Too much heat will eventually damage the circuit, perhaps through fire or worse. Short circuits occur […]
HTML Attributes — HTML
HTML attributes give additional information about HTML elements. Using a variety of attributes we can add new dimensions and functionality to elements. The href attribute can be used with the hyperlink element <a> tag to identify exactly where we want that link to go, whether it is an internal link within the site itself or […]
The src Attribute — HTML
The <img> tag is used to embed an image in an HTML page. You write the image HTML tag in the code of your web page, and then specify certain necessary attributes, such as the src attribute, so that the image displays correctly. The src attribute identifies the path to the image to be displayed […]
The href Attribute — HTML
The <a> tag defines a hyperlink — a link to somewhere else on your site, or a link to somewhere else on the internet — that you place around certain text that you want to be the link text. This is done with the href attribute, which specifies the url that you are trying to […]
Optical Telescopes
Optical Telescopes are able to collect significantly more light than the human eye, the larger they are the more light they are able to capture, which then forms and image of distant objects for the eye to see. When we turn a telescope to the night sky an optical telescope gathers and focuses light allowing […]
Telescopes
It is essentially on telescopes that modern astronomy is founded. In the ages before this technology was invented, all astronomy was naked-eye astronomy which means that we were vastly limited by what our eyes can see — even with the assistance of the first telescopes just over 400 years ago — and most of what […]
Front End Development
Front End Development involves creating the user-facing aspects of a website or application. Front End developers design the side of a website that it shown to the world, using a number of computer languages together to get the desired functionality and aesthetic. Front End developers control the appearance of the website, how it is rendered […]

HTML Tags
HTML tags are fundamental components used to structure and format content in web documents. They define specific elements as paragraphs, headings of a specific hierarchy, images and so on, enabling you to add styles using CSS to a specific html tag to change its visual appearance in the web browser. HTML tags commonly consist of […]
The Python Programming Language
This course will teach you how to code with the Python Programming Language, but more than that, we will also explore the process of learning to think like a computer scientist. Ultimately, in addition to the knowledge and skills of the computer scientist, the main characteristic is the skill of problem solving. Python is an […]
