What is NaN(O)

At Sahaj, tech consultants operate at the intersection between engineering and art. Simply put, they are artisans who take on complex engineering problems in the software industry across a wide spectrum of domains. Their work is deeply rooted in first principles thinking - asking fundamental questions to dissect and understand a problem which eventually leads to one-of-a-kind solutions, each as distinct as a fingerprint.

Through NaN(O), a coding event driven by Sahaj across multiple colleges in India, they want to instil a culture of applying first principles thinking to a problem statement.


Problem statement

  • Enable workflows in your github fork (Under the actions tab -> Select "I understand my workflows, go ahead and enable them" to enable the test workflow)
  • Use your favourite editor to make changes
  • Create a commit after testing it locally (How to commit git)
  • Push the commit to the remote to the same branch (github repo) (How to push git)
  • If all your changes work well, you will see a green tick on the actions section on your repo under the selected branch (How to see last run action)
