This post of kind of fun little HackerRank problem solved (in Java) using Dynamic Programming now should be a bit more readable than its first version. thisthread.blogspot.com/2018/06/hacker…

Cute little problem that leads to a natural and clean solution using a partial sum approach. I describe how to think to it and I provide the relative Java code thisthread.blogspot.com/2021/02/hacker…

I reviewed my code and post for the HackerRank "medium" problem Java Dequeue, that is basically all about using an ArrayDeque to check a rolling window of data. thisthread.blogspot.com/2018/07/hacker…

Adding a manifest to a JAR to make it executable is an easy matter using Maven. A minor nuisance is that the non-executable one is still produced, at least if we don't explicitly suppress its creation. But that it's easy to do, too. thisthread.blogspot.com/2020/07/creati…

Another basic old blog post I rewrote from scratch. This is about adding dependencies in a Java app and how to let maven know that we want to put them too in the resulting jar. thisthread.blogspot.com/2020/05/jar-wi…

I just wanted to clean a bit an ancient blog post about creating a Java desktop app on Eclipse with Maven. I ended up rewriting it from scratch and refactoring the associated code on git from ground up thisthread.blogspot.com/2020/05/simple…

Moving from JUnit 4 to JUnit 5 in a Spring Application is quite easy, given the native support. Just a matter of adjusting the POM and a limited tweaking in the Java code thisthread.blogspot.com/2019/06/testin…

I've started reading Pro Spring 5. I had some minor issues to make their code working from GitHub to my STS IDE, some changes in a couple of gradle conf files required. thisthread.blogspot.com/2018/09/the-gr… #java #spring #book

A hackerrank Java problem that should be centered on Deque, but I think is more interesting for the use of a hash map as cache. I used once Map.merge() in a bit too adventurous way, I swear I won't put it like that in production code thisthread.blogspot.com/2018/07/hacker…

Simple little Hackerrank problem about sorting object, meant to be solved in Java. It is almost a one-liner using stream functionality. Compact, fun, and, I think, easy to understand even if you are not that much into the matter. thisthread.blogspot.com/2018/06/hacker…

Cute little HackerRank problem about a pawn that has to get out board using a limited set of moves and avoiding hurdles. I'm happy enough about my Dynamic Programming solution. thisthread.blogspot.com/2018/06/hacker… #problem #java #dp
