Chunk Large File Upload Simulation by Blocks in Python
A Python script reads a large binary file in fixed-size chunks and simulates a block-by-block upload with per-chunk SHA256 hashing.
import os
import hashlib
from pathlib import Path
def read_file_in_chunks(file_path, chunk_size=8196):
"""Yield chunks of a file as bytes."""
with open(file_path, 'rb') as f:
while chunk := f.read(chunk_size):
yield chunk
def simulate_chunked_upload(file_path, chunk_size=8196):

How to Convert Images Between Formats in Python
Use the Pillow library to open an image from one file format and save it to another, with error handling for missing files or conversion issues.
from PIL import Image
import sys
def convert_image_format(input_path, output_path):
try:
img = Image.open(input_path)
img.save(output_path)
print(f"Converted {input_path} to {output_path}")
except FileNotFoundError:
print(f"Error: File {input_path} not found")
sys.exit(…
