(Before we start, I just want you to know that I put a lot of effort into searching for information, I love doing this, but I spend a lot of time researching, searching for information and writing, I don't use AI like others, I write everything from my heart, so please I would appreciate your congratulations, please share this blog with other people who like computer science and write a nice comment,  That would help me a lot. Thank you)
