ENCRYPTION vs CRYPTOGRAPHY

Encryption and cryptography are 2 topics that are thought to be the same but I am about to tell you why they are not the same.

Encryption:

Encryption is the practice of concealing data or information in such a way that it appears random and can be accessed by authorized parties only.

Encryption is the main application of cryptography.

Encryption is very important to modern data security, mainly digital signatures and to protect sensitive electronic data e.g emails and passwords.

It is also basically uses algorithm to encrypt the data and a secret key to decrypt.

Cryptography:

cryptography is the practice of securing information by transforming it into a secured format for transmission across insecure networks.

It is the art of creating codes using the techniques of encryption and decryption.

Its is widely used in electronic commerce, military communications, and chip-based card payments, digital currencies e.g cryptocurrency.

It provides methods of protecting data through encryption and related processes.

How to Create a Qrcode Generator in Python.

Firstly before writing the codes for the qr code generator let us first understand what we mean by qr code. What are Qr Codes? Qr Codes which are also known as Quick Response codes are a type of matrix barcodes developed in 1994 by the Japanese automotive company DENSO WAVE by a man named Masahiro hara. Qr Codes can also be defined as a machine-readable code that consists of an array of black and white squares, typically used for storing urls or other information for reading by the camera on a smartphone or smart device. What are Barcodes? A barcode on the other hand is a machine-readable optical label that can contain information about the item to which it is attached. Coding Time. So we are done with the definition of qr codes and barcodes now let's dive into the coding. Steps to Create the Qr Code Generator. Firstly make sure that python software is installed in your system (more specifically python3), if it is not then go to https://www.python.org/ In order to download th

Coding vs Programming

Today I will be talking about a very big misunderstanding among people which is: The difference between coding and programming these two are taught to be synonymous/similar, well am here to clarify that and fully explain what they are. CODING VS PROGRAMMING Coding and programming are often thought to be the same but they are not, Coding is the process of translating and writing codes from one language to another, whereas Programming is the process of building an executable program that can be used to carry out proper machine level outputs. Coding only deals with the codes, and so it is less intimidating and less intensive. WHERE DOES CODING COME IN? So coding is just part of the process of programming but it's not programming itself, so you can say coding is like pathway you must learn in order to learn programming, because in order to create programs writing codes is a step you must take, and you write these codes in a special language called Programming languages . So I hope t
