Chrome Webstore- II : Just for Kids!

Few weeks back I released an HTML5 game app in Google chrome web store. You can find the related post here. After that, I was playing with multiple ideas where one could potentially attract more users through a chrome or mobile app. So just thought of publishing a mini puzzle absolutely meant for Kids who just learned to count till 10. I would need some feed back from little masters about the game/puzzle and connect some of my thoughts about how we can make useful web applications with simplest technology available on your machine. 

You could visit chrome web store here - https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/fmiefkckhkeeggkfjjaocnlljbnlmnok - and download the Kid's puzzle/game. I would love your feedback if you installed and played it!

SCTE35 Parser

The SCTE (Society of Cable Telecommunications Engineers) defines the SCTE-35 as "SCTE 35, Digital Program Insertion Cueing Message for Cable, is the core signaling standard for advertising and distribution control (ex. blackouts) of content for content providers and content distributors"  SCTE-35 CUEs are signals that can be used to identify AD breaks, program chapters etc in a VOD, DVR or live streams contents. While creating the original content, encoders uses SCTE-104 messages to insert appropriate SCTE-35 info in the stream. This usually will be packaged as separate stream with other video, audio streams. The downstream packager can use this info to create appropriate SCTE-35 CUEs on the end user metadata, for example HLS manifest, DASH manifest etc.  Sample manifest with SCTE-35 cues: #EXTM3U #EXT-X-TARGETDURATION:10 #EXT-X-VERSION:3 #EXT-X-MEDIA-SEQUENCE:00001 http://server-host/path/file44.ts http://server-host/path/file45.ts SCTE 35 2016 SCTE STANDARD ©SCT

Dijkstra's Algorithm in JavaScript

I happend to read through a series of blog posts by Nicholas C. Zakas here -  http://www.nczonline.net/blog/2009/06/09/computer-science-in-javascript-binary-search-tree-part-1 . These are really interesting thoughts. So I decided to take it another step by implementing the shortest span/path solution using Dijkstra's Algorithm. A beautiful explanation of the algorithm is available in YouTube at -  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8Ls1RqHCOPw  - so that I can stay focussed on the implementation part. Now, let me walk you through the steps taken to implement the algorithm in javascript. First of all, I need to define the graph that I am going to traverse. The best way to represent the graph is in metrix form, where each of the entry will indicate the weighted edge from one node to the other. To do this in JS, I created an array of arrays, with a header element at the first row. Figure 1. The above graph can be represented as follows.     [['A',
