8 min readExtension functions in Kotlin allow you to add new functionality to an existing class, even if you don't have access to its source code. This feature is particularly advantageous when working with classes from external libraries or Android framework classes.To define an extension function, you need to prefix the function name with the class you want to extend, followed by a dot. Inside the function, you can access the properties and methods of the extended class just like regular functions.

Firstly, an ergonomic mouse is designed to provide better comfort and support for the hand and wrist. It reduces strain and pressure on the muscles, tendons, and nerves, thus minimizing the risk of developing repetitive strain injuries or conditions like carpal tunnel syndrome.Secondly, an ergonomic mouse promotes a more natural hand position while using the computer.

5 min readIn Bash, you can use the "if then" conditional statement to perform specific actions based on certain conditions. The syntax of the "if then" statement in Bash is as follows: if condition then # code to be executed if the condition is true else # code to be executed if the condition is false fi Here's a breakdown of each component:The if keyword indicates the start of the conditional statement.

6 min readIn Kotlin, you can implement inheritance using the open and class keywords. The open keyword is used to mark a class as open so that it can be inherited, and the class keyword is used to define a new class.To inherit from a class, you use the : symbol followed by the name of the superclass. The class that inherits from another class is known as the subclass. Note that by default, all classes in Kotlin are final and cannot be inherited.
