BHILAI Institute OF TECHNOLOGY, DURG DEPARTMENT OF COMPUTER SCIENCE AND ENGINEERING Rust is a new open- source systems programming language created by Mozilla and a community of volunteers, designed to help developers create fast, secure applications which take full advantage of the powerful features of modern multi-core processors. It prevents segmentation faults and guarantees thread safety, all with an easy-to-learn syntax. In addition, Rust offers zero-cost abstractions, move semantics, guaranteed memory safety, threads with no data races, trait-based generics, pattern matching, type inference, and efficient C bindings, with a minimum runtime size. Dear Readers, The onset of 2017 witnessed a lot of good news, enthusiasm and high spirits for our department. A good number of students securing high ranks in GATE/CAT and some great news from the placement cell started the show. It was followed by the successful hosting of another issue of the annual national conference BITCON. The vibrations continued during the annual college fest OJAS, where CSE Department added colors to OJAS by hosting the Rangoli and Painting contests. We also encouraged everyone to reach up to the skies through the water bottle rocket contest. Our students indeed touched the heights by giving splendid performances in the grand finale of the SMART INDIA HACKATHON 2017 programming contest. From the editorial desk we congratulate all those who were part of these events. We also welcome our next generation of student editors – Suman Anand and Akshat Aman.

MISSION OF THE DEPARTMENT Promote peace, prosperity and growth in society by producing competent computer professionals with strong ethics, entrepreneurial, continuous learning and research skills through quality teaching-learning processes rendered by experienced faculty and ever up- gradable infrastructure. THE FEEL GOOD FACTOR We all have our own shares of things, incidents, days of failures and struggles when we find ourselves in the corner. It could be anything but the mental trauma that one faces in the due course and sometimes it happens to prolong a bit more than expected. Life would have been boring otherwise if only happiness prevailed, rather these patches of abysmally low phases gives a rendezvous with the inner you, which in turn help to come out with flying colours and that’s what make each of us a more proud, responsible and a self-made person. All the day to day crisis management, anger management is solved and a silver lining is thus made. Though we can’t skip those rough phases but can tackle it pre predominantly using simple things, which are: 1.Look for motivation on daily basis, we are anything but self- restraining. 2.A thing of beauty is a joy forever, revisit old good times, be rooted it gives you strength. 3.Meet someone you bank upon, share your guts and feelings, a true friend is always true indeed. 4.Re plan, retry, be unstoppable come what may, failures will only give you a much needed experiences. 5.Make some amendments in your lifestyle in case of crisis, financially, emotionally. You certainly would appreciate once you are out of it. 6.Patience is the key to success a wise man told, hold on to that with a positive vibe of succeeding sometime soon 7.Be focused and occupied, don’t think of negative consequences, that’s what the magic book says 8.Share everything with your parents, they are the most selfless persons in our lives Oh wait! What!!You knew all these. Great. Try out each of these bullets effectively, it would certainly be a pain relief if not more. By Suman Anand (4 th Sem, Sec A) “Where is your mother?” Asked he wiping a tear “What is a mother?” Asked she in fear! Just then he realized Life isn’t a game It’s a series of events For something not so lame! “I am so sorry dear!” “Let’s get you home” “I live right here!” And then she was gone! He followed her back! To her place in a haze And suddenly he came across Her place an Orphanage! His eyes became wet As she ran in With a smile of her face And he had a grin! “Thank You angel!” “I didn’t lose!” “It’s easier that way” “But we have to pay our dues!” When things go wrong! And they sometimes will Take some time, if you want But don’t ever quit! So if you believe In a better tomorrow There’s nothing you can’t achieve Without any sorrow!!! By Akshat Aman (4 th Sem, Sec A) The people passing by Saw tears roll down his cheek No one gave a damn As they thought he was weak! Little did they know! The real reason before his tears At first which were slow But then he just couldn’t bear! “I’m Sorry!” he murmured Looking up at the sky Making his voice firmer “Why is it always a lie?” “What’s always a lie?” Enquired a little girl passing by “Life!” he replied “Oh!” she exclaimed, but with a wry! Hardships.!! Mozilla Rust ISSUE APRIL 2017
