Welcome to SWE theory

A collection of documents containing a top-to-bottom and simple-to-advanced set of useful concepts, theories, and knowledge.

This repository is a constant WIP.

1. Programming paradigms & types of languages

Learn about OOP, inheritance, the diamond problem, etc.

Contents:

  • Unstructured vs Structured
  • High level vs Low level
  • Compiled vs Interpreted
  • Dynamically typed vs statically typed
  • Imperative & Declarative
  • Procedural programming
  • Functional programming
  • Data-driven programming
  • Object-Oriented programming
    • Class-based vs prototype-based
    • The getters setters debate
    • Composition, inheritance, and delegation
    • Polymorphism
    • Ad hoc vs Subtyping
    • Behavioral subtyping
    • Object-orientation and databases
    • Object-relational mapping
    • Responsibility- vs. data-driven design
    • Criticism (OOP)
  • Probabilistic Programming

Paraphrasing wasn't required most of the time.

Primary sources:

  • Wikipedia
  • Python docs
  • Linkedin articles

Additional notes

  • GitHub's Markdown renderer may need adjustment Level 5 and 6 headings appear similar.
  • Markdown quotes are occasionally also used to denote bonus info, when the source isn't explicit.
  • This repo started as a single Obsidian note and has been shared on GitHub twice.

Below is a snapshot of my contributions the year prior (2023-2024), most of which went to the first version of this repo and specifically the programming paradigms:

Some notes could best be saved visually on Lorien using a drawing pad.
The DECO 03 was used. Lorien files can be downloaded and edited locally.

A feature I particularly like is its infinite canvas
