API (Application Programming Interface)

API (Application Programming Interface):

API provides an interface that allows developers to interact with programs and applications, including learning management systems. An API includes a set of credentials known as keys that are used by admins and developers. Similar to a username and password pair, the key allows developers to access the API and interact with data in an LMS. Integrating with a vendor’s API can speed up the eLearning processes by automating time-consuming manual tasks like updating, deleting, or exporting lists of users. In practical terms, an API allows you to push or pull data from one system to another.

Biologie

La biologie (du grec βίος / bios, « vie » et λόγος / logos, « parole, discours ») est la science du vivant. Son objet est l'étude des organismes vivants, des cellules qui les composent à la physiologie des organismes dans leur ensemble, de l'évolution des espèces aux recherches comportementales, de l'écologie scientifique à la médecine. Les champs couverts par la biologie sont immenses et nombre de domaines qui lui sont liés apparaissent souvent comme des sciences à part entière, étudiant le vivant à toutes ses échelles, des bactéries aux plus grands mammifères.

Blockchain Technology

Blockchain technology is like a digital ledger that keeps track of transactions. Instead of one person controlling it, many computers work together to make sure the information is accurate and safe. Each transaction is put into a block, and these blocks are connected in a chain. It's really hard for anyone to change the information because it's stored in lots of places and protected. This technology is most famous for cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin, but it can also be used for other things like tracking where food comes from or making sure people's identities are secure online.
