explain mysqli_insert_id

πŸ€– SheCodes Athena says:

Answered in 3.26 seconds

The mysqli_insert_id function is a PHP function used to retrieve the ID generated by the most recent INSERT operation in MySQL. It specifically works with the MySQL Improved Extension (mysqli) in PHP to get the unique identifier (ID) value of the record that was just inserted into a database table.

This function is often used when you have an auto-incrementing primary key column in your table, and you want to get the ID of the row that was just inserted. The value returned by mysqli_insert_id is useful for subsequent operations that need to reference this newly inserted row.

Here's an example of how mysqli_insert_id can be used in PHP:

php
Copy code
// Connect to the database $conn = mysqli_connect("hostname", "username", "password", "database"); // Perform an INSERT operation $query = "INSERT INTO table_name (column_name) VALUES ('value')"; mysqli_query($conn, $query); // Get the ID of the inserted row $lastInsertedID = mysqli_insert_id($conn); // Use the ID in further operations $query = "SELECT * FROM table_name WHERE id = $lastInsertedID"; $result = mysqli_query($conn, $query); // Process the result // ...

In this example, mysqli_insert_id is used to retrieve the ID of the inserted row, and then it is used in a subsequent SELECT query to fetch the data of the newly inserted row.

JSP code for music backend development

πŸ€– SheCodes Athena says:

Answered in 10.25 seconds

Here's an example of JSP code for connecting to a MySQL database and retrieving and displaying music data:

jsp
Copy code
<%@ page import="java.sql.*" %> <% // Database credentials String url = "jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/mydb"; String user = "username"; String password = "password"; try { // Load the MySQL JDBC driver Class.forName("com.mysql.jdbc.Driver"); // Connect to the database Connection conn = DriverManager.getConnection(url, user, password); // Execute a query to retrieve music data Statement stmt = conn.createStatement(); String sql = "SELECT * FROM music"; ResultSet rs = stmt.executeQuery(sql); // Display the music data in an HTML table out.println("<table>"); out.println("<tr><th>Title</th><th>Artist</th><th>Genre</th></tr>"); while (rs.next()) { out.println("<tr>"); out.println("<td>" + rs.getString("title") + "</td>"); out.println("<td>" + rs.getString("artist") + "</td>"); out.println("<td>" + rs.getString("genre") + "</td>"); out.println("</tr>"); } out.println("</table>"); // Close the database connection rs.close(); stmt.close(); conn.close(); } catch (SQLException e) { out.println("SQLException: " + e.getMessage()); } catch (ClassNotFoundException e) { out.println("ClassNotFoundException: " + e.getMessage()); } %>

This code assumes that a MySQL database named mydb exists on the local machine and contains a table named music with columns title, artist, and genre. It uses JSP scriptlet to embed Java code within HTML content so that the music data can be retrieved from the database and displayed as an HTML table.

write a jsp code for stored value in dropdown

πŸ€– SheCodes Athena says:

Answered in 4.02 seconds

To create a dropdown with stored values in JSP, you can follow these instructions:

  1. Create a JSP file and add the following code to define a dropdown element:

    html
    Copy code
    <select name="myList"> </select>
  2. Within the <select> tags, add options for each value you want to store in the dropdown. For example:

    html
    Copy code
    <select name="myList"> <option value="value1">Value 1</option> <option value="value2">Value 2</option> <option value="value3">Value 3</option> </select>
  3. If you want to populate the dropdown with values from a database or other data source, you can use JSP scriptlets or JSTL to generate the options dynamically. For example:

    html
    Copy code
    <select name="myList"> <% for (String value : myValues) { %> <option value="<%= value %>"><%= value %></option> <% } %> </select>

    where the myValues variable is an array or list of strings containing the values you want to display.

  4. Make sure to include any CSS or JavaScript needed to style and/or manipulate the dropdown as desired.

Example of the complete JSP code.

jsp
Copy code
<html> <head> <title>Dropdown Example</title> </head> <body> <select name="myList"> <option value="value1">Value 1</option> <option value="value2">Value 2</option> <option value="value3">Value 3</option> </select> </body> </html>

why should we use mongodb instead of postgresql?

πŸ€– SheCodes Athena says:

Answered in 3.54 seconds

Both MongoDB and PostgreSQL are database management systems, but they differ in their architecture and intended use cases. MongoDB is a document-oriented database, while PostgreSQL is a relational database.

MongoDB is suitable for handling large amounts of unstructured and semi-structured data, particularly in cases where horizontal scaling is necessary. It is also very flexible and easily scalable.

PostgreSQL, on the other hand, is more suited for handling structured data, particularly in cases where complex queries are needed. It has more robust support for SQL queries and offers powerful consistency controls.

In summary, whether to use MongoDB or PostgreSQL depends on the specific requirements of your project. If you need to store unstructured or semi-structured data and/or require horizontal scaling, MongoDB might be the better fit. If you need to handle structured data with more robust SQL support, PostgreSQL might be more appropriate.

Code online store, JavaScript and CSS

πŸ€– SheCodes Athena says:

Answered in 8.18 seconds

Creating an online store involves multiple components and tasks. It requires a backend and a frontend with a database to store the data, a server to manage the requests and handle the user interface.

JavaScript is typically used to handle client-side interactions, like taking user inputs and modifying the content displayed on the page.

CSS is used to style the user interface, such as changing the colors, font size, layout and positioning of the elements.

To get started with creating an online store, there are various frameworks and tools like React, Angular or Vue that come with pre-built components and libraries to simplify the process.

Here is an example code snippet written in JavaScript for creating and manipulating HTML elements:

javascript
Copy code
// create a button element const btn = document.createElement('button'); // add text to the button btn.textContent = 'Click me'; // add a click event listener to the button btn.addEventListener('click', () => { alert('Hello world!'); }); // append the button to the HTML document document.body.appendChild(btn);

Here is an example code snippet written in CSS for styling a div element:

css
Copy code
div { background-color: #ccc; border: 1px solid black; padding: 10px; margin: 10px; width: 50%; text-align: center; font-size: 20px; }

Note that creating an online store involves many more technical considerations beyond just HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, such as security, performance, and scalability.

How can I, in Typescript react, iterate through a database object to then delete the inner database objects?

πŸ€– SheCodes Athena says:

Answered in 23.57 seconds

To iterate through a database object and delete inner database objects in TypeScript React, you would first need to fetch the data from the database and store it in state. Once you have the data in state, you can map over it and perform your delete operation.

Here is some example code to get you started.

typescript
Copy code
import { useState, useEffect } from 'react'; interface DatabaseObject { id: number; name: string; innerObjects: Array<{ id: number; value: string }>; } function App() { const [data, setData] = useState<Array<DatabaseObject>>([]); useEffect(() => { // Fetch the data from the database and set it in state const fetchedData: Array<DatabaseObject> = fetchDataFromDatabase(); setData(fetchedData); }, []); const handleDelete = (databaseObjectId: number, innerObjectId: number) => { // Find the database object that matches the given id const databaseObjectToUpdateIndex = data.findIndex( (obj) => obj.id === databaseObjectId ); if (databaseObjectToUpdateIndex !== -1) { // Filter out the inner object that matches the given id const updatedInnerObjects = data[ databaseObjectToUpdateIndex ].innerObjects.filter((obj) => obj.id !== innerObjectId); // Create a copy of the database object with the updated inner objects const updatedDatabaseObject = { ...data[databaseObjectToUpdateIndex], innerObjects: updatedInnerObjects, }; // Create a copy of the data array with the updated database object const updatedData = [...data]; updatedData[databaseObjectToUpdateIndex] = updatedDatabaseObject; // Update the state with the updated data array setData(updatedData); } }; return ( <div> {data.map((databaseObject) => ( <div key={databaseObject.id}> <h2>{databaseObject.name}</h2> <ul> {databaseObject.innerObjects.map((innerObject) => ( <li key={innerObject.id}> {innerObject.value}{' '} <button onClick={() => handleDelete(databaseObject.id, innerObject.id) } > Delete </button> </li> ))} </ul> </div> ))} </div> ); }

This code assumes that you have a function called fetchDataFromDatabase that fetches the data from your database and returns an array of DatabaseObject objects. The handleDelete function takes in the IDs of the database object and inner object to delete, filters out the inner object from the innerObjects array, creates a copy of the database object with the updated innerObjects array, creates a copy of the data array with the updated database object, and then updates the state with the updated data array.

This code also assumes that you have a list of DatabaseObject objects, each with an id property and an array of innerObjects. It renders the data array using the map method, and then maps over each innerObjects array to render a list of inner objects with a "Delete" button. When the "Delete" button is clicked, the handleDelete function is called with the IDs of the database object and inner object to delete, and the state is updated accordingly. You can modify this code to fit your specific use case.

how do i load a database from dbeaver into azure service bus?

πŸ€– SheCodes Athena says:

Answered in 3.08 seconds

To load a database from DBeaver into Azure Service Bus, you need to follow these high-level steps:

  1. Download and install the Azure Service Bus Explorer tool.
  2. Get the connection string for your Service Bus namespace.
  3. Install the appropriate Azure Service Bus NuGet package in your project.
  4. Create a new topic or queue in your Service Bus namespace.
  5. Use the SendAsync method to send the data from DBeaver to the Service Bus topic or queue.

Here is some sample C# code showing how to use the Azure Service Bus library to send messages to a topic:

c#
Copy code
using Azure.Messaging.ServiceBus; using System.Text; using System.Threading.Tasks; // Get the connection string for your Service Bus namespace string connectionString = "your_connection_string"; // Create a Service Bus client instance await using var client = new ServiceBusClient(connectionString); // Create a message sender for the topic ServiceBusSender sender = client.CreateSender("your_topic"); // Create a message to send string dataFromDBeaver = "your_data_from_dbeaver"; ServiceBusMessage message = new ServiceBusMessage(Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(dataFromDBeaver)); // Send the message to the topic await sender.SendMessageAsync(message);

For more detailed information, please refer to the official Microsoft documentation on using Azure Service Bus: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/service-bus-messaging/

πŸ‘©β€πŸ’» I am getting the error dotnet run Unhandled exception. Npgsql.PostgresException (0x80004005): 42P01: relation "edocsvariety" does not exist how do i solve it?

πŸ€– SheCodes Athena says:

Answered in 6.51 seconds

The error message you're seeing suggests that you're trying to access a table named "edocsvariety" that does not exist in your Postgres database. Here are two possible solutions for this issue:

  1. Check if the table exists: Verify whether the table truly doesn't exist by checking if it's visible on Postgres. You can use your preferred SQL client to connect to your Postgres database and query the existence of the "edocsvariety" table. For example:
sql
Copy code
SELECT * FROM information_schema.tables WHERE table_schema = 'public' AND table_name = 'edocsvariety';

If the table doesn't exist, you will need to create it using an SQL command that resembles the one below:

sql
Copy code
CREATE TABLE edocsvariety ( -- table definition here );
  1. Verify your connection string: Ensure that your Postgres connection string is correct and that your .NET application is connecting to the intended database. Check that the server, user, password and database name are set correctly.
csharp
Copy code
var connectionString = "Server=some_server;Port=5432;Database=myDataBase;User Id=myUsername;Password=myPassword;";

If neither of these solutions work, you may need to provide more context on what you're doing to get this error. Happy debugging!

πŸ€– SheCodes Athena says:

Answered in 2.63 seconds

The error message suggests that you're trying to create a new instance of the Azure ServiceBusClient class with a null or empty connection string. This will throw an ArgumentNullException because the ServiceBusClient constructor requires a non-null, non-empty connection string.

To fix the issue, you need to provide a valid connection string that points to your Azure Service Bus resource. You can obtain the connection string from the Azure portal or from your Azure Key Vault.

Here's an example of a valid connection string:

code
Copy code
Endpoint=sb://<your-namespace>.servicebus.windows.net/;SharedAccessKeyName=<your-policy-name>;SharedAccessKey=<your-policy-key>;EntityPath=<your-entity-path>

You can then use the connection string in your code like this:

csharp
Copy code
using Azure.Messaging.ServiceBus; // Replace this with your actual Service Bus connection string string connectionString = "your-connection-string"; // Create a new ServiceBusClient instance ServiceBusClient client = new ServiceBusClient(connectionString); // Use the client to interact with your Service Bus resource

Make sure that your connection string is not null, empty, or missing any of the required connection parameters.

πŸ‘©β€πŸ’» where do i find the entitypath?

πŸ€– SheCodes Athena says:

Answered in 3.42 seconds

The entityPath parameter in the Service Bus connection string is optional and is used to specify the name of the topic, queue, or subscription that your client should connect to. If you don't specify an entity path, the client will connect to the default entity (which is the Service Bus namespace itself).

The specific steps to find the entityPath depends on whether you're working with a Service Bus topic or queue:

  • For a Service Bus Topic: In the Azure portal, navigate to your Service Bus namespace, select the "Topics" blade, and choose the topic that you want to work with. The entity path for the topic is shown on the "Overview" page, under "Name".

  • For a Service Bus Queue: In the Azure portal, navigate to your Service Bus namespace, select the "Queues" blade, and choose the queue that you want to work with. The entity path for the queue is shown on the "Overview" page, under "Name".

Note that if you don't see the entityPath value in your connection string, it means that it defaults to the root level of the Service Bus namespace. You can still send messages to a specific topic or subscription by specifying its name in the ServiceBusSender or ServiceBusProcessor constructor, like this:

csharp
Copy code
// Create a ServiceBusSender that writes to a specific topic ServiceBusSender sender = client.CreateSender("mytopic"); // Create a ServiceBusProcessor that reads from a specific subscription ServiceBusProcessor processor = client.CreateProcessor("mysubscription", new ServiceBusProcessorOptions());

I hope that helps!

πŸ€– SheCodes Athena says:

Answered in 3.74 seconds

The error message you're seeing suggests that either the Service Bus namespace, the queue or topic you're specifying in your code doesn't exist, or you don't have permission to access it. To resolve this error, you can take the following steps:

  1. Ensure that the Service Bus namespace exists: Check in the Azure portal if the Service Bus namespace exists. If it doesn't exist, create a new one with the desired name, region and pricing tier.

  2. Verify the queue or topic name: Ensure that the queue or topic name is spelled correctly and matches the actual name in the Service Bus namespace. Names are case-sensitive, so make sure you're using the correct casing.

  3. Check the connection string: Verify that the Service Bus connection string you're using is correct and contains the correct endpoint for the namespace, shared access key name and value, and entity path. The format of the connection string should be:

code
Copy code
Endpoint=sb://<namespace-name>.servicebus.windows.net;SharedAccessKeyName=<key-name>;SharedAccessKey=<key-value>;EntityPath=<queue-or-topic-name>
  1. Check for authorization issues: Ensure that you have the appropriate authorization to access the Service Bus namespace or topic/queue. Check that the Service Bus shared access policy name, the policy key and the policy permissions are set up correctly.

  2. Check network connectivity: Ensure that your computer or application can connect to the internet, and that any firewalls or proxies are configured to allow outbound connections to the Service Bus namespace.

If none of these steps resolve the issue, double-check your code for any typos or syntax errors. Also, enable debugging, check the relevant logs, and use the debugger to identify the issue.

πŸ€– SheCodes Athena says:

Answered in 4.66 seconds

The error message you're seeing indicates that the EntityPath specified in your Service Bus connection string does not match the queue or topic name that you're trying to interact with in your code.

Here are a few steps to help you troubleshoot and resolve the error:

  1. Check that the entity name in your code matches the EntityPath in your Service Bus connection string. To do this, check the following:
code
Copy code
- The spelling and capitalization of the queue or topic name in your code matches that shown in the Azure Portal. - The entity path specified in the `ServiceBusSender` or `ServiceBusProcessor` constructor matches the `EntityPath` in your connection string.
  1. Update your connection string to match the queue or topic name in your code. If you have verified that the entity name in your code is correct, then you may need to change the EntityPath in your connection string to match that name. Alternatively, if you don't want to change your connection string, you can update the entity name in your code to match the EntityPath specified in the connection string.

  2. Ensure that your connection string is valid. Check that your connection string is correctly formatted with the proper endpoint, shared access key name and value, and EntityPath. Make sure that the EntityPath value ends with /queues/<queue_name> or /topics/<topic_name> depending on whether you're connecting to a queue or a topic.

Here's an example of how to create a ServiceBusClient using a connection string:

csharp
Copy code
string connectionString = "Endpoint=sb://<service_bus_namespace>.servicebus.windows.net/;SharedAccessKeyName=<key_name>;SharedAccessKey=<key_value>;EntityPath=<queue_or_topic_name>"; ServiceBusClient client = new ServiceBusClient(connectionString);
  1. Check if the application is using an old connection string. If you have updated the name of the queue or topic in the Azure portal or elsewhere, make sure that your application is using the latest connection string.

By following these steps, you should be able to resolve the β€œThe queue or topic name provided does not match the EntityPath in the connection string passed to the ServiceBusClient constructor” error.

Answered in 5.22 seconds

The error message you're seeing indicates that the chosen user or policy doesn't have the required permissions to send messages to a Service Bus queue or topic.

To resolve this issue, you can take the following steps:

  1. Check the authentication parameters: Ensure that the client is being authenticated properly when trying to send messages to the Service Bus queue/topic. Make sure that the Shared Access Key Name, Shared Access Key Value or Connection String parameters are specified correctly and are valid.

  2. Check the authorization parameters: Ensure that the client has the appropriate authorization rules to send messages. Check the Access Policies configuration of the Service Bus topic, and verify that the client has "Send" access. If not, add a new policy that enables "Send" access for the client.

  3. Update the existing policy or create a new policy: To allow users or applications to send messages to a Service Bus, follow these steps:

  • In the Azure Portal, navigate to the Service Bus and select the topic/queue in question.
  • Choose the "Access control (IAM)" tab.
  • Add a new role assignment or update an existing one.
  • Give the role assignment a meaningful name.
  • Choose the role β€˜Contributor’ or Create a custom role with Send privilege only.
  • Choose the user or application that needs to send messages.
  1. Update client configuration: Ensure that the ServiceBusSender instance is created with the correct connection string and/or policy name when sending messages. If you're reusing a ServiceBusSender object, verify that the object was not created with different credentials than those required to send messages.

  2. Check network connectivity: Ensure that your computer or application can connect to the internet and that any firewalls or proxies are configured to allow outbound connections to the Service Bus namespace.

Once these steps have been taken, rebuild and run your application to confirm that the "Send" privilege access issue has been resolved.

Here are a few solutions to resolve this issue:

  1. Check the network connectivity: Ensure that your computer or application can connect to the internet, and that any firewalls or proxies are configured to allow outbound connections to the Service Bus namespace.

  2. Check the Service Bus endpoint: Verify that the specified Service Bus endpoint is correctly formatted and has the correct fully qualified domain name. The Service Bus namespace endpoint should have the following format: sb://<servicebus-namespace>.servicebus.windows.net/.

  3. Verify your connection string: Double-check that your Service Bus connection string is formatted correctly and contains the correct endpoint for the namespace, shared access key name and value, and entity path.

  4. Verify Service Bus namespace availability: Ensure that the Service Bus namespace is not experiencing downtime or any other maintenance issues. Check the Azure service health to determine whether there are any known issues with the Service Bus service.

  5. Check for firewall or DNS issues: If Service Bus namespace endpoints are blocked by a firewall, configure the firewall to allow traffic to the relevant endpoint IP addresses. You can also verify that DNS resolution is working for the Service Bus domain name by running the command nslookup <servicebus-namespace>.servicebus.windows.net on your machine.

If none of these solutions work, check any deployed policies, verify that your application is authorized to connect to the namespace, and enable Azure Service Bus diagnostic logs to troubleshoot further.

Answered in 3.06 seconds

An API stands for "Application Programming Interface". It's a way for two different programs, or software components, to communicate with each other. APIs define the protocols and rules for how one component should interact with the other. For example, a web application might use an API to fetch data from a database, or to get the latest weather forecast from a weather service. APIs can be used in many programming languages, but some common formats include REST and GraphQL. You can find more information on APIs in this article: https://www.smashingmagazine.com/2018/01/understanding-using-rest-api/ (written in JavaScript).

Note: This assumes that you have defined the Post model class with all the fields you need in your database. You can generate a model by running rails generate model Post title:string content:text in your terminal. This will create a migration file to create the posts table in your database with title and content columns. Then, you can run rails db:migrate to migrate the changes to your database schema.

πŸ‘©β€πŸ’» and how about the model and the migration for Post

πŸ€– SheCodes Athena says:

Answered in 3.29 seconds

The migration to create the Post model can be generated using the following command:

ruby
Copy code
rails generate model Post title:string content:text

This will create a migration file that looks like this:

ruby
Copy code
# file: db/migrate/TIMESTAMP_create_posts.rb class CreatePosts < ActiveRecord::Migration[6.1] def change create_table :posts do |t| t.string :title t.text :content t.timestamps end end end

After running rails db:migrate the Post model will be created automatically. Here is what the model definition could look like:

ruby
Copy code
# file: models/post.rb class Post < ApplicationRecord # You can add validations, associations, or other model logic here end

Note that you should replace TIMESTAMP in the migration file name with a timestamp that is generated automatically to ensure that the migration file names are unique.

πŸ‘©β€πŸ’» please add some validation to the post model

Sure, here's an example validation that requires title and content to be present:

ruby
Copy code
# file: models/post.rb class Post < ApplicationRecord validates :title, presence: true validates :content, presence: true end

This ensures that any new Post records must have values for title and content. Otherwise, a validation error will be raised and the record will not be saved. You can customize the error message that is displayed by adding an :message option to the validates method.

Hey Athena, my JS for date and time is currently showing my local time, how do I update?

πŸ€– SheCodes Athena says:

Answered in 5.76 seconds

Sure, to show date and time in a specific timezone, you can use the following steps:

Step 1: Define the timezone to be used You need to define which timezone you want to use in the JavaScript function. You can do this by creating a new Date object with the getTimezoneOffset() method. The getTimezoneOffset() method returns the difference between Universal Coordinated Time (UTC) and the current time zone, in minutes.

Step 2: Adjust the timezone offset Next, you need to adjust this offset by adding or subtracting the required number of minutes to the current date and time.

Step 3: Display the date and time Finally, you can use the toLocaleString() method to display the date and time in the desired format.

Here's an example code block to get you started:

javascript
Copy code
// set the date to show in PST timezone let date = new Date(); let timezoneOffset = date.getTimezoneOffset(); let pstOffset = -480; // this is the offset for the Pacific Standard Time timezone let adjustedTime = new Date(date.getTime() + (pstOffset + timezoneOffset) * 60 * 1000); // display the date and time in PST timezone let options = { day: 'numeric', month: 'numeric', year: 'numeric', hour: 'numeric', minute: 'numeric', second: 'numeric', timeZone: 'America/Los_Angeles' }; let pstDateTime = adjustedTime.toLocaleString('en-US', options); console.log(pstDateTime); // Output: 2/16/2022, 11:01:20 AM

Note that to set the timezone, you need to specify a timezone name that is valid in the IANA Time Zone database, such as America/Los_Angeles for Pacific Standard Time (PST). You can find a list of valid timezone names at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_tz_database_time_zones.

πŸ€” Frequently Asked Questions

If you have any other questions, you can easily reach out to us here

AI stands for Artificial Intelligence. AI bots are able to learn from conversations with users and expand their knowledge this way.

SheCodes Athena will help you with technical questions about your code using artificial intelligence to find the answer. Imagine a super powerful human who has memorized everything on the internet and can access that knowledge in a matter of seconds. 🀯

SheCodes Athena can answer most coding-related questions, even complicated ones! It can even find bugs in your code and tell you how to fix them in just a few seconds. Impressive, right?

Just remember we're still in testing mode so the AI may return strange or incorrect replies. Feel free to message us if this happens!

SheCodes Athena can only reply to coding-related technical questions. The same type of questions you would ask in the channels on Slack.

For questions that are not coding-related, write us here πŸ˜ƒ

You should treat Athena like a SheCodes team member, so always be polite! 😊 Ask your questions as detailed as possible, just like you would do on Slack.

Here are some examples:

- Prettier isn't working on my VS Code. How do I fix this?

- How do I make bullet points with different colors using the list element?

- My code in Codesandbox is having some issues. Can you please tell me what the issue is? [Include the link to your Codesandbox]

For now, SheCodes Athena is limited to 5 questions per day for each student.

In that case, you can either ask SheCodes Athena a follow-up question, or you can post on the designated weekly channel on Slack!

Our technical assistants are still available on Slack and are always happy to help! 😍πŸ’ͺ

Remember, questions are limited to 1000 characters.

- If you're working with an HTML file: Post a snippet of your code related to the issue you're having (just copy the code and paste it into the question box).

- If you're working with Codesandbox: Good news, you can just post the link to your Codesandbox and the AI Assistant will be able to view your code.

- If you have a longer question that would require an entire HTML file or more than 1000 characters, post it in the designated weekly channels on Slack! πŸ˜ƒ

Athena was the Greek goddess of wisdom, among other elements. She received her name from the city of Athens, which she is known for protecting.

Much like the goddess Athena, SheCodes Athena is also incredibly wise and can solve complicated coding puzzles in a matter of seconds! 😍

Not likely. AI can automate tasks and make developers' jobs more efficient but it can't fully replace the human ability to deal with complex software. And AI will still require human developers to supervise and improve it further.

So developers may see their tasks change but they won't be replaced by AI. πŸ‘©β€πŸ’»πŸ€πŸ’»
