I'm flattered. Thank you.
If you are referring to the node js' fs.watch, yeah that works fine . . i like to use webhooks generally cos they are "language & platform agnostic"
I should prolly start a Youtube channel one of these days.

i would totally follow..

Not a problem, Any one works, sir !

Alright sir, you may choose to tweet at me @michaelhungbo or send me a mail with your e-mail acct.

Thanks and God bless!

baba abeg help solve this biko...

so am doing this

1) i require a object...(but this also requires another object at init)

2) after some changes i then delete the cached object programmatically which calls step 3

3) then i require that same object again via the path(exact same way i require at step 1)


now the problem is for the life of me i cant figure out why the new object still has the same object loaded at step 1 after deleting and reloading(its own required objects)

biko how do i fix it so during the whole delete process its own cached objects are deleted also

Good day boss,

I have a project I'm working on and I will be pleased if you can answer some of my questions.
I am using Nodejs.

Permission to go ahead sir.

I don't think those 20k gang know how to even declare variables in JavaScript. I met a computer science graduate from a university in the south east. He also builds websites WordPress websites and claims to know HTML, CSS, JavaScript, bootstrap and PHP. I asked him to tell me how they declare variables in PHP and he said that the question was too big for him. Even here on nairaland when they post that crap try interrogating their knowledge. They don't even know the basics. Wasn't it on this section someone was asking for help with editing a HTML template and be was advertising 20k websites on his signature.

Wow! Where I dey where all these one's dey happen. Anyway, I love MERN. The flow of work and the declarative approach (If I am not wrong), is very much fun especially when you find out that all you know is just the "Getting Started". Lol... Once I know this nodejs, then mixing with reactjs and small time someone will come with a PHP job that takes me like 1 - 2 months, then I start again from getting started. Hahaha... That does not mean I can't use stack-overflow and google to complete any nodejs/reactjs job. But I genuinely want to get this MERN stack 100% in my belt o. I love MEARN no be small. It gives me Joy I can't even explain.

Na so we see am bros. I was learning MERN stack but absolutely no opportunities for beginner MERN stack developers. Dumped it for PHP and I have not looked back since.

I am working on a plagiarism checker.
A web app that can check the similarities between two or more submitted word/pdf document.

can you give me the best approach to use to achieve this?

Rookie method:
Good stuff. I am going to assume the documents will contain English alpahanumeric characters.
You want to go by "propensity to be plagiarized" i.e. the probability that what you're seeing is plagiarized. So depending on how deep you want it to be, you could do 1 - 100. Lets stick with 1 - 10 to keep it simple.
Bear in mind that words will always repeat themselves in everyday English sentences, so your best best is to check each sentence, rather than the whole document. Sentence 0 on copy A should be checked against Sentence 0 on copy B. This is a shallow comparison where each word is matched against the other word, and if they are similar, you can give it a 1 depending on how you calibrated your scale. If they dont match, you can give it a 0, once again depending on how calibrated your scale. Do this for the whole sentences in the document and get an average. Then you decide by sentiments what percentage threshold is an indication of pliagarism or not.

Expert method:
Study Levenshtein distance algorithm. I have attached screens for you to see what you will deal with.

thanks for your response sir...
Can you like give me a technical insight of how i can get to read the content of the word/pdf document into my program before i can compare them?

Sorry if my question is too newbie!

Nah, it's fine.
Simple........look for a pdf reader/parser. Since it's node js, feel free to pick one from the public npm repository
You can do the same for any other document format, as long as it contains recognisable character formats.

hello sir,

i would like us to connect and hopefully you see me through on this project.

I see that you have a wealth of knowledge and i would like to tap in that knowledge.

I see you as a senior and a mentor.

Wow I couldn't stop reading through this thread! This is certainly the best thread in Nairaland programming section. I learnt so many things and I've got so many new stuff to try out.

I salute you @cixak95211 and @codeigniter
