Quick Response Code

In this post, we will discuss the practical use of QR Code or Quick Response Code.For the past decades we humans have become accustomed to the representation of data digitally. In the past we would represent data using lines (“||||” represents 4 and when we cross it to represent 5).

After it had been introduced that instead of using lines, we started using bars in which a thick bar represents different data and a lean one represents another and white space represents 0.

As time passed, we all know that there is no limits for inventions.
