Fixed digits after decimal with f-strings

a = 10.1234

print(f"{a:0.2f}")

in 0.2f:

  • 0 is telling python to put no limit on the total number of digits to display
  • .2 is saying that we want to take only 2 digits after decimal (the result will be same as a round() function)
  • f is telling that it's a float number. If you forget f then it will just print 1 less digit after the decimal. In this case, it will be only 1 digit after the decimal.

How to print the array?

It looks like you have a typo on your array, it should read:

int my_array[3][3] = {...

You don't have the _ or the {.

Also my_array[3][3] is an invalid location. Since computers begin counting at 0, you are accessing position 4. (Arrays are weird like that).

If you want just the last element:

printf("%d\n", my_array[2][2]);

If you want the entire array:

for(int i = 0; i < my_array.length; i++) {
  for(int j = 0; j < my_array[i].length; j++)
    printf("%d ", my_array[i][j]);
  printf("\n");
}

How can I show an element that has display: none in a CSS rule?

Because setting the div's display style property to "" doesn't change anything in the CSS rule itself. That basically just creates an "empty," inline CSS rule, which has no effect beyond clearing the same property on that element.

You need to set it to something that has a value:

document.getElementById('mybox').style.display = "block";

What you're doing would work if you were replacing an inline style on the div, like this:

<div id="myBox" style="display: none;"></div>

document.getElementById('mybox').style.display = "";

Close window automatically after printing dialog closes

just use this java script

 function PrintDiv() {
    var divContents = document.getElementById("ReportDiv").innerHTML;
    var printWindow = window.open('', '', 'height=200,width=400');
    printWindow.document.write('</head><body >');
    printWindow.document.write(divContents);
    printWindow.document.write('</body></html>');
    printWindow.document.close();
    printWindow.print();
    printWindow.close();
}

it will close window after submit or cancel button click

What Scala web-frameworks are available?

There's a new web framework, called Scala Web Pages. From the site:

Target Audience

The Scala Pages web framework is likely to appeal to web programmers who come from a Java background and want to program web applications in Scala. The emphasis is on OOP rather than functional programming.

Characteristics And Features

  • Adheres to model-view-controller paradigm
  • Text-based template engine
  • Simple syntax: $variable and <?scp-instruction?>
  • Encoding/content detection, able to handle international text encodings
  • Snippets instead of custom tags
  • URL Rewriting

Command failed due to signal: Segmentation fault: 11

For anyone else coming across this... I found the issue was caused by importing a custom framework, I have no idea how to correct it. But simply removing the import and any code referencing items from the framework fixes the issue.

(?°?°)?? ???

Hope this can save someone a few hours chasing down which line is causing the issue.

How to convert from Hex to ASCII in JavaScript?

You can use this..

_x000D_
_x000D_
var asciiVal = "32343630".match(/.{1,2}/g).map(function(v){_x000D_
      return String.fromCharCode(parseInt(v, 16));_x000D_
    }).join('');_x000D_
    _x000D_
document.write(asciiVal);
_x000D_
_x000D_
_x000D_

SQL Left Join first match only

Depending on the nature of the duplicate rows, it looks like all you want is to have case-sensitivity on those columns. Setting the collation on these columns should be what you're after:

SELECT DISTINCT p.IDNO COLLATE SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS, p.FirstName COLLATE SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS, p.LastName COLLATE SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS
FROM people P

Unicode characters in URLs

For me this is the correct way, This just worked:

    $linker = rawurldecode("$link");
    <a href="<?php echo $link;?>"   target="_blank"><?php echo $linker ;?></a>

This worked, and now links are displayed properly:

http://newspaper.annahar.com/article/121638-????--????-???-??-??????-?????-????-??????-??????-????-??????-?????-????????

How to fix getImageData() error The canvas has been tainted by cross-origin data?

I was having the same issue, and for me it worked by simply concatenating https:${image.getAttribute('src')}

How do I prevent mails sent through PHP mail() from going to spam?

$fromMail = 'set your from mail';
$boundary = str_replace(" ", "", date('l jS \of F Y h i s A'));
$subjectMail = "New design submitted by " . $userDisplayName;


$contentHtml = '<div>Dear Admin<br /><br />The following design is submitted by '. $userName .'.<br /><br /><a href="'.$sdLink.'"><b>Click here</b></a> to check the design.</div>';
$contentHtml .= '<div><a href="'.$imageUrl.'"><img src="'.$imageUrl.'" width="250" height="95" border="0" alt="my picture"></a></div>';
$contentHtml .= '<div>Name : '.$name.'<br />Description : '. $description .'</div>';

$headersMail = '';
$headersMail .= 'From: ' . $fromMail . "\r\n" . 'Reply-To: ' . $fromMail . "\r\n";
$headersMail .= 'Return-Path: ' . $fromMail . "\r\n";
$headersMail .= 'MIME-Version: 1.0' . "\r\n";
$headersMail .= "Content-Type: multipart/alternative; boundary = \"" . $boundary . "\"\r\n\r\n";
$headersMail .= '--' . $boundary . "\r\n";
$headersMail .= 'Content-Type: text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1' . "\r\n";
$headersMail .= 'Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64' . "\r\n\r\n";
$headersMail .= rtrim(chunk_split(base64_encode($contentHtml)));

try {
    if (mail($toMail, $subjectMail, "", $headersMail)) {
        $status = 'success';
        $msg = 'Mail sent successfully.';
    } else {
        $status = 'failed';
        $msg = 'Unable to send mail.';
    }
} catch(Exception $e) {
    $msg = $e->getMessage();
}

This works fine for me.It includes mail with image and a link and works for all sorts of mail ids. The clue is to use all the header perfectly.

If you are testing it from localhost, then set the below before checking:

How to set mail send from localhost xampp:

  1. comment everything in D:/xampp/sendmail/sendmail.ini and mention the below under

    [sendmail]

    smtp_server=smtp.gmail.com smtp_port=587 error_logfile=error.log debug_logfile=debug.log [email protected] auth_password=your-mail-password [email protected]

  2. In D:/xampp/php/php.ini a. Under

    [mail function]

    SMTP = smtp.gmail.com smtp_port = 587

b. set sendmail_from = [email protected] c. uncomment sendmail_path = "\"D:\xamp\sendmail\sendmail.exe\" -t" Hence it should be look like below

sendmail_path = "\"D:\xamp\sendmail\sendmail.exe\" -t"

d. comment sendmail_path="D:\xamp\mailtodisk\mailtodisk.exe" Hence it should be look like below

;sendmail_path="D:\xamp\mailtodisk\mailtodisk.exe"

e. mail.add_x_header=Off

error: ORA-65096: invalid common user or role name in oracle

Might be, more safe alternative to "_ORACLE_SCRIPT"=true is to change "_common_user_prefix" from C## to an empty string. When it's null - any name can be used for common user. Found there.

During changing that value you may face another issue - ORA-02095 - parameter cannot be modified, that can be fixed in a several ways, based on your configuration (source).

So for me worked that:

alter system set _common_user_prefix = ''; scope=spfile;

Removing u in list

Please Use map() python function.

Input: In case of list of values

index = [u'CARBO1004' u'CARBO1006' u'CARBO1008' u'CARBO1009' u'CARBO1020']

encoded_string = map(str, index)

Output: ['CARBO1004', 'CARBO1006', 'CARBO1008', 'CARBO1009', 'CARBO1020']

For a Single string input:

index = u'CARBO1004'
# Use Any one of the encoding scheme.
index.encode("utf-8")  # To utf-8 encoding scheme
index.encode('ascii', 'ignore')  # To Ignore Encoding Errors and set to default scheme

Output: 'CARBO1004'

What's the difference between “mod” and “remainder”?

There is a difference between modulus and remainder. For example:

-21 mod 4 is 3 because -21 + 4 x 6 is 3.

But -21 divided by 4 gives -5 with a remainder of -1.

For positive values, there is no difference.

LINQ: combining join and group by

Once you've done this

group p by p.SomeId into pg  

you no longer have access to the range variables used in the initial from. That is, you can no longer talk about p or bp, you can only talk about pg.

Now, pg is a group and so contains more than one product. All the products in a given pg group have the same SomeId (since that's what you grouped by), but I don't know if that means they all have the same BaseProductId.

To get a base product name, you have to pick a particular product in the pg group (As you are doing with SomeId and CountryCode), and then join to BaseProducts.

var result = from p in Products                         
 group p by p.SomeId into pg                         
 // join *after* group
 join bp in BaseProducts on pg.FirstOrDefault().BaseProductId equals bp.Id         
 select new ProductPriceMinMax { 
       SomeId = pg.FirstOrDefault().SomeId, 
       CountryCode = pg.FirstOrDefault().CountryCode, 
       MinPrice = pg.Min(m => m.Price), 
       MaxPrice = pg.Max(m => m.Price),
       BaseProductName = bp.Name  // now there is a 'bp' in scope
 };

That said, this looks pretty unusual and I think you should step back and consider what you are actually trying to retrieve.

converting epoch time with milliseconds to datetime

those are miliseconds, just divide them by 1000, since gmtime expects seconds ...

time.strftime('%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S', time.gmtime(1236472051807/1000.0))

Range of values in C Int and Long 32 - 64 bits

There's no one answer. The standard defines minimum ranges. An int must be able to hold at least 65535. Most modern compilers however allow ints to be 32-bit values. Additionally, there's nothing preventing multiple types from having the same capacity (e.g. int and long).

That being said, the standard does say in your particular case:

0 ? +18446744073709551615

as the range for unsigned long long int.

python's re: return True if string contains regex pattern

You can do something like this:

Using search will return a SRE_match object, if it matches your search string.

>>> import re
>>> m = re.search(u'ba[r|z|d]', 'bar')
>>> m
<_sre.SRE_Match object at 0x02027288>
>>> m.group()
'bar'
>>> n = re.search(u'ba[r|z|d]', 'bas')
>>> n.group()

If not, it will return None

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<pyshell#17>", line 1, in <module>
    n.group()
AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'group'

And just to print it to demonstrate again:

>>> print n
None

system("pause"); - Why is it wrong?

You can use std::cin.get() from iostream:

#include <iostream> // std::cout, std::cin
using namespace std;

int main() {
   do {
     cout << '\n' << "Press the Enter key to continue.";
   } while (cin.get() != '\n');

   return 0;
}

Besides, system('pause') is slow, and includes a file you probably don't need: stdlib.h. It is platform-dependent, and actually calls up a 'virtual' OS.

How to extract svg as file from web page

I don't know if this already been answered correctly or not. Well. Downloading the file from the source is not the resolution. How to grab *.svg from URL.

I installed 'svg-grabber' add-on to Google Chrome. That only partially resolve my problem, as Google Chrome does not have the shortcut to 'Back' one page.

I was trying to download the files from URL, but I kept getting an error, that there are no svg files on this page when I can see 40 of them. You can click on them, so they will open, but you cannot save it.

The folder within WordPress: .../static/img/icons/

I added 'Go Back With Backspace' add-on to Chrome, as I had to click on each file separately, as if they are white icons (that I am currently looking for), you will not see them. You have to click on the file. Then back. It was taking too long. Now is fine. There is a soft to download specific folder, but I do not want to download half of the internet, to just have get a white .

When you click on a white icon, a new tab opens, but it is all white. Then you click on svg-grabber icon in Chrome and it will open it in a new window on a black background with a button download all svg.

Check if a value is in an array or not with Excel VBA

I searched for this very question and when I saw the answers I ended up creating something different (because I favor less code over most other things most of the time) that should work in the vast majority of cases. Basically turn the array into a string with array elements separated by some delimiter character, and then wrap the search value in the delimiter character and pass through instr.

Function is_in_array(value As String, test_array) As Boolean
    If Not (IsArray(test_array)) Then Exit Function
    If InStr(1, "'" & Join(test_array, "'") & "'", "'" & value & "'") > 0 _
        Then is_in_array = True
End Function

And you'd execute the function like this:

test = is_in_array(1, array(1, 2, 3))

How to define a variable in a Dockerfile?

To my knowledge, only ENV allows that, as mentioned in "Environment replacement"

Environment variables (declared with the ENV statement) can also be used in certain instructions as variables to be interpreted by the Dockerfile.

They have to be environment variables in order to be redeclared in each new containers created for each line of the Dockerfile by docker build.

In other words, those variables aren't interpreted directly in a Dockerfile, but in a container created for a Dockerfile line, hence the use of environment variable.


This day, I use both ARG (docker 1.10+, and docker build --build-arg var=value) and ENV.
Using ARG alone means your variable is visible at build time, not at runtime.

My Dockerfile usually has:

ARG var
ENV var=${var}

In your case, ARG is enough: I use it typically for setting http_proxy variable, that docker build needs for accessing internet at build time.

new Image(), how to know if image 100% loaded or not?

Using the Promise pattern:

function getImage(url){
        return new Promise(function(resolve, reject){
            var img = new Image()
            img.onload = function(){
                resolve(url)
            }
            img.onerror = function(){
                reject(url)
            }
            img.src = url
        })
    }

And when calling the function we can handle its response or error quite neatly.

getImage('imgUrl').then(function(successUrl){
    //do stufff
}).catch(function(errorUrl){
    //do stuff
})

Note the {} prior to the standard String.Format positional argument notation allows the braces to be escaped in the markup extension language.

How to use environment variables in docker compose

How to select first and last TD in a row?

If the row contains some leading (or trailing) th tags before the td you should use the :first-of-type and the :last-of-type selectors. Otherwise the first td won't be selected if it's not the first element of the row.

This gives:

td:first-of-type, td:last-of-type {
    /* styles */
}

"Can't find Project or Library" for standard VBA functions

Even when all references are fine the prefix problem causes compile errors.

What about creating a find and replace sub for all 'built-in VBA functions' in all modules, like this:

replace text in code module

e.g. "= Date" will be replaced with "= VBA.Date".

e.g. " Date(" will be replaced with " VBA.Date(" .

(excluding "dim t As Date" or "mydate")

All vba functions for find and replace are written here :

How to format numbers?

I think with this jQuery-numberformatter you could solve your problem.

Of course, this is assuming that you don't have problem with using jQuery in your project. Please notice that the functionality is tied to the blur event.

_x000D_
$("#salary").blur(function(){_x000D_
      $(this).parseNumber({format:"#,###.00", locale:"us"});_x000D_
      $(this).formatNumber({format:"#,###.00", locale:"us"});_x000D_

How to clone git repository with specific revision/changeset?

# clone special tag/branch without history
git clone  --branch=<tag/branch> --depth=1 <repository>


# clone special revision with minimal histories
git clone --branch <branch> <repository> --shallow-since=yyyy-MM-ddTHH:mm:ss  # get the commit time
cd <dir>
git reset --hard <revision> 

you can't get a revision without histories if not set uploadpack.allowReachableSHA1InWant=true on server side, while you can create a tag for it and clone the special tag instead.

round() doesn't seem to be rounding properly

Take a look at the Decimal module

Decimal “is based on a floating-point model which was designed with people in mind, and necessarily has a paramount guiding principle – computers must provide an arithmetic that works in the same way as the arithmetic that people learn at school.” – excerpt from the decimal arithmetic specification.

and

Decimal numbers can be represented exactly. In contrast, numbers like 1.1 and 2.2 do not have an exact representations in binary floating point. End users typically would not expect 1.1 + 2.2 to display as 3.3000000000000003 as it does with binary floating point.

Decimal provides the kind of operations that make it easy to write apps that require floating point operations and also need to present those results in a human readable format, e.g., accounting.

Are multiple `.gitignore`s frowned on?

There are many scenarios where you want to commit a directory to your Git repo but without the files in it, for example the logs, cache, uploads directories etc.

So what I always do is to add a .gitignore file in those directories with the following content:

*
!.gitignore

With this .gitignore file, Git will not track any files in those directories yet still allow me to add the .gitignore file and hence the directory itself to the repo.

What is the meaning of curly braces?

In languages like C curly braces ({}) are used to create program blocks used in flow control. In Python, curly braces are used to define a data structure called a dictionary (a key/value mapping), while white space indentation is used to define program blocks.

How to call a javaScript Function in jsp on page load without using <body onload="disableView()">

Either use window.onload this way

<script>
    window.onload = function() {
        // ...
    }
</script>

or alternatively

<script>
    window.onload = functionName;
</script>

(yes, without the parentheses)


Or just put the script at the very bottom of page, right before </body>. At that point, all HTML DOM elements are ready to be accessed by document functions.

<body>
    ...

    <script>
        functionName();
    </script>
</body>

How to get the last value of an ArrayList

In case you have a spring project, you can also use the CollectionUtils.lastElement from Spring (javadoc) and you don't need to add an extra dependency like Google Guave if you didn't need to before.

It is null-safe so if you pass null, you will simply receive null in return. Be careful when handling the response though.

Here are somes unit test to demonstrate them:

@Test
void lastElementOfList() {
    var names = List.of("John", "Jane");

    var lastName = CollectionUtils.lastElement(names);

    then(lastName)
        .as("Expected Jane to be the last name in the list")
        .isEqualTo("Jane");
}

@Test
void lastElementOfSet() {
    var names = new TreeSet<>(Set.of("Jane", "John", "James"));

    var lastName = CollectionUtils.lastElement(names);

    then(lastName)
        .as("Expected John to be the last name in the list")
        .isEqualTo("John");
}

Note: org.assertj.core.api.BDDAssertions#then(java.lang.String) is used for assertions.

How to check that Request.QueryString has a specific value or not in ASP.NET?

You can also try:

if (!Request.QueryString.AllKeys.Contains("aspxerrorpath"))
   return;

Warning about `$HTTP_RAW_POST_DATA` being deprecated

Been awhile until I came across this error. Put up my answer for anyone who may stumble upon this issue.

The error only means that you are sending an empty POST request. This error is commonly found on HTTPRequests with no parameters passed. To avoid this error, you can always add a parameter to the POST without changing the php.ini.

Like:

$.post(URL_HERE
    ,{addedvar : 'anycontent'}
    ,function(d){
       doAnyHere(d);
    }
    ,'json' //or 'html','text'
);

How to Serialize a list in java?

All standard implementations of java.util.List already implement java.io.Serializable.

So even though java.util.List itself is not a subtype of java.io.Serializable, it should be safe to cast the list to Serializable, as long as you know it's one of the standard implementations like ArrayList or LinkedList.

If you're not sure, then copy the list first (using something like new ArrayList(myList)), then you know it's serializable.

If conditions in a Makefile, inside a target

You can simply use shell commands. If you want to suppress echoing the output, use the "@" sign. For example:

clean:
    @if [ "test" = "test" ]; then\
        echo "Hello world";\
    fi

Note that the closing ";" and "\" are necessary.

How can I use grep to show just filenames on Linux?

The standard option grep -l (that is a lowercase L) could do this.

From the Unix standard:

-l
    (The letter ell.) Write only the names of files containing selected
    lines to standard output. Pathnames are written once per file searched.
    If the standard input is searched, a pathname of (standard input) will
    be written, in the POSIX locale. In other locales, standard input may be
    replaced by something more appropriate in those locales.

You also do not need -H in this case.

Click events on Pie Charts in Chart.js

  var ctx = document.getElementById('pie-chart').getContext('2d');
 var myPieChart = new Chart(ctx, {
                // The type of chart we want to create
                type: 'pie',

            });

             //define click event
  $("#pie-chart").click(
            function (evt) {
                var activePoints = myPieChart.getElementsAtEvent(evt);
                var labeltag = activePoints[0]._view.label;

                      });

What is the difference between declarative and imperative paradigm in programming?

Declarative programming is when you say what you want, and imperative language is when you say how to get what you want.

A simple example in Python:

# Declarative
small_nums = [x for x in range(20) if x < 5]

# Imperative
small_nums = []
for i in range(20):
    if i < 5:
        small_nums.append(i)

The first example is declarative because we do not specify any "implementation details" of building the list.

To tie in a C# example, generally, using LINQ results in a declarative style, because you aren't saying how to obtain what you want; you are only saying what you want. You could say the same about SQL.

One benefit of declarative programming is that it allows the compiler to make decisions that might result in better code than what you might make by hand. Running with the SQL example, if you had a query like

SELECT score FROM games WHERE id < 100;

the SQL "compiler" can "optimize" this query because it knows that id is an indexed field -- or maybe it isn't indexed, in which case it will have to iterate over the entire data set anyway. Or maybe the SQL engine knows that this is the perfect time to utilize all 8 cores for a speedy parallel search. You, as a programmer, aren't concerned with any of those conditions, and you don't have to write your code to handle any special case in that way.

Check whether a value exists in JSON object

Why not JSON.stringify and .includes()?

You can easily check if a JSON object includes a value by turning it into a string and checking the string.

console.log(JSON.stringify(JSONObject).includes("dog"))
--> true

Edit: make sure to check browser compatibility for .includes()

How to do a logical OR operation for integer comparison in shell scripting?

How to manage a redirect request after a jQuery Ajax call

in the servlet you should put response.setStatus(response.SC_MOVED_PERMANENTLY); to send the '301' xmlHttp status you need for a redirection...

and in the $.ajax function you should not use the .toString() function..., just

if (xmlHttp.status == 301) { top.location.href = 'xxxx.jsp'; }

the problem is it is not very flexible, you can't decide where you want to redirect..

redirecting through the servlets should be the best way. but i still can not find the right way to do it.

The import android.support cannot be resolved

This is very easy step to import any 3rd party lib or jar file into your project

  1. Copy android-support-v4.jar file from your_drive\android-sdks\extras\android\support\v4\android-support-v4.jar
    or copy from your existing project's bin folder.
    or any third party .jar file
  2. paste copied jar file into lib folder

  3. right click on this jar file and then click on build Path->Add to Build Path enter image description here

  4. even still you are getting error in your project then Clean the Project and Build it.

jQuery UI Dialog window loaded within AJAX style jQuery UI Tabs

Just an addition to nicktea's answer. This code loads the content of a remote page (without redirecting there), and also cleans up when closing it.

<script type="text/javascript">
    function showDialog() {
        $('<div>').dialog({
            modal: true,
            open: function () {
                $(this).load('AccessRightsConfig.htm');
            },
            close: function(event, ui) {
                    $(this).remove();
                },
            height: 400,
            width: 600,
            title: 'Ajax Page'
        });

        return false;
    }
</script>

Static class initializer in PHP

There is a way to call the init() method once and forbid it's usage, you can turn the function into private initializer and ivoke it after class declaration like this:

class Example {
    private static function init() {
        // do whatever needed for class initialization
    }
}
(static function () {
    static::init();
})->bindTo(null, Example::class)();

How to initialize static variables

best way is to create an accessor like this:

/**
* @var object $db : map to database connection.
*/
public static $db= null; 

/**
* db Function for initializing variable.   
* @return object
*/
public static function db(){
 if( !isset(static::$db) ){
  static::$db= new \Helpers\MySQL( array(
    "hostname"=> "localhost",
    "username"=> "root",
    "password"=> "password",
    "database"=> "db_name"
    )
  );
 }
 return static::$db;
}

then you can do static::db(); or self::db(); from anywhere.

How to change date format in JavaScript

CustomErrors mode="Off"

We also ran into this error and in our case it was because the application pool user did not have permissions to the web.config file anymore. The reason it lost its permissions (everything was fine before) was because we had a backup of the site in a rar file and I dragged a backup version of the web.config from the rar into the site. This seems to have removed all permissions to the web.config file except for me, the logged on user.

It took us a while to figure this out because I repeatedly checked permissions on the folder level, but never on the file level.

Running command line silently with VbScript and getting output?

Dim path As String = GetFolderPath(SpecialFolder.ApplicationData)

    ' Create the file if it does not exist. 
    If File.Exists(filepath) = False Then
        File.Create(filepath)
    Else
    End If
    Dim attributes As FileAttributes
    attributes = File.GetAttributes(filepath)
    If (attributes And FileAttributes.ReadOnly) = FileAttributes.ReadOnly Then
        ' Remove from Readonly the file.

    procInfo.CreateNoWindow = True
    procInfo.FileName = path + "\" + "your.bat"
    procInfo.Verb = "runas"
    Process.Start(procInfo)

it saves your .bat file to "Appdata of current user" ,if it does not exist and remove the attributes and after that set the "hidden" attributes to file after writing your cmd code and run it silently and capture all output saves it to file so if u wanna save all output of cmd to file just add your like this

code > C:\Users\Lenovo\Desktop\output.txt

just replace word "code" with your .bat file code or command and after that the directory of output file I found one code recently after searching alot if u wanna run .bat file in vb or c# or simply just add this in the same manner in which i have written

How to drop columns using Rails migration

I found this and because I think it is pretty straight forward and has validation tests and supports alpha values (optional), this will fit the case.

Just comment out the regex line if you know what you're doing and it's a tiny bit faster.

function hexToRGBA(hex, alpha){
    hex = (""+hex).trim().replace(/#/g,""); //trim and remove any leading # if there (supports number values as well)
    if (!/^(?:[0-9a-fA-F]{3}){1,2}$/.test(hex)) throw ("not a valid hex string"); //Regex Validator
    if (hex.length==3){hex=hex[0]+hex[0]+hex[1]+hex[1]+hex[2]+hex[2]} //support short form
    var b_int = parseInt(hex, 16);
    return "rgba("+[
        (b_int >> 16) & 255, //R
        (b_int >> 8) & 255, //G
        b_int & 255, //B
        alpha || 1  //add alpha if is set
    ].join(",")+")";

Returning a regex match in VBA (excel)

You need to access the matches in order to get at the SDI number. Here is a function that will do it (assuming there is only 1 SDI number per cell).

For the regex, I used "sdi followed by a space and one or more numbers". You had "sdi followed by a space and zero or more numbers". You can simply change the + to * in my pattern to go back to what you had.

Function ExtractSDI(ByVal text As String) As String

Dim result As String
Dim allMatches As Object
Dim RE As Object
Set RE = CreateObject("vbscript.regexp")

RE.pattern = "(sdi \d+)"
RE.Global = True
RE.IgnoreCase = True
Set allMatches = RE.Execute(text)

If allMatches.count <> 0 Then
    result = allMatches.Item(0).submatches.Item(0)
End If

ExtractSDI = result

End Function

If a cell may have more than one SDI number you want to extract, here is my RegexExtract function. You can pass in a third paramter to seperate each match (like comma-seperate them), and you manually enter the pattern in the actual function call:

Ex) =RegexExtract(A1, "(sdi \d+)", ", ")

Here is:

Function RegexExtract(ByVal text As String, _
                      ByVal extract_what As String, _
                      Optional seperator As String = "") As String

Dim i As Long, j As Long
Dim result As String
Dim allMatches As Object
Dim RE As Object
Set RE = CreateObject("vbscript.regexp")

RE.pattern = extract_what
RE.Global = True
Set allMatches = RE.Execute(text)

For i = 0 To allMatches.count - 1
    For j = 0 To allMatches.Item(i).submatches.count - 1
        result = result & seperator & allMatches.Item(i).submatches.Item(j)
    Next
Next

If Len(result) <> 0 Then
    result = Right(result, Len(result) - Len(seperator))
End If

RegexExtract = result

End Function

*Please note that I have taken "RE.IgnoreCase = True" out of my RegexExtract, but you could add it back in, or even add it as an optional 4th parameter if you like.

What's an Aggregate Root?

Dinah:

In the Context of a Repository the Aggregate Root is an Entity with no parent Entity. It contains zero, One or Many Child Entities whose existence is dependent upon the Parent for it's identity. That's a One To Many relationship in a Repository. Those Child Entities are plain Aggregates.

Python, remove all non-alphabet chars from string

It is advisable to use PyPi regex module if you plan to match specific Unicode property classes. This library has also proven to be more stable, especially handling large texts, and yields consistent results across various Python versions. All you need to do is to keep it up-to-date.

If you install it (using pip intall regex or pip3 install regex), you may use

import regex
print ( regex.sub(r'\P{L}+', '', 'ABCLac1-2!???3§4“5def”') )
// => ABCLac???def

to remove all chunks of 1 or more characters other than Unicode letters from text. See an online Python demo. You may also use "".join(regex.findall(r'\p{L}+', 'ABCLac1-2!???3§4“5def”')) to get the same result.

In Python re, in order to match any Unicode letter, one may use the [^\W\d_] construct (Match any unicode letter?).

So, to remove all non-letter characters, you may either match all letters and join the results:

result = "".join(re.findall(r'[^\W\d_]', text))

Or, remove all chars other than those matched with [^\W\d_]:

result = re.sub(r'([^\W\d_])|.', r'\1', text, re.DOTALL)

See the regex demo online. However, you may get inconsistent results across various Python versions because the Unicode standard is evolving, and the set of chars matched with \w will depend on the Python version. Using PyPi regex library is highly recommended to get consistent results.

List of All Folders and Sub-folders

find . -type d > list.txt

Will list all directories and subdirectories under the current path. If you want to list all of the directories under a path other than the current one, change the . to that other path.

If you want to exclude certain directories, you can filter them out with a negative condition:

find . -type d ! -name "~snapshot" > list.txt

Execute function after Ajax call is complete

Append .done() to your ajax request.

See the JQuery Doc for .done()

How to remove/delete a large file from commit history in Git repository?

Why not use this simple but powerful command?

git filter-branch --tree-filter 'rm -f DVD-rip' HEAD

The --tree-filter option runs the specified command after each checkout of the project and then recommits the results. In this case, you remove a file called DVD-rip from every snapshot, whether it exists or not.

If you know which commit introduced the huge file (say 35dsa2), you can replace HEAD with 35dsa2..HEAD to avoid rewriting too much history, thus avoiding diverging commits if you haven't pushed yet. This comment courtesy of @alpha_989 seems too important to leave out here.

    {
       if(Request["btn"].Equals("button_A"))
        {
          Response.Redirect("PageA.cshtml");
        }
      if(Request["btn"].Equals("button_B"))
        {
          Response.Redirect("PageB.cshtml");
        }
  }
}

Html- how to disable <a href>?

I created a button...

This is where you've gone wrong. You haven't created a button, you've created an anchor element. If you had used a button element instead, you wouldn't have this problem:

<button type="button" data-toggle="modal" data-target="#myModal" data-role="disabled">
    Connect
</button>

If you are going to continue using an a element instead, at the very least you should give it a role attribute set to "button" and drop the href attribute altogether:

<a role="button" ...>

Once you've done that you can introduce a piece of JavaScript which calls event.preventDefault() - here with event being your click event.

How to use Git and Dropbox together?

There's also an open source project (a collection of cross platform [Linux, Mac, Win] scripts) that does all the nitty-gritty details of the repository management with a handful (3-4) of commands.

https://github.com/karalabe/gitbox/wiki

Sample usage is:

$ gitbox create myapp
Creating empty repository...
Initializing new repository...
Repository successfully created.

$ gitbox clone myapp
Cloning repository...
Repository successfully cloned.

After which normal git usage:

$ echo “Some change” > somefile.txt
$ git add somefile.txt
$ git commit –m “Created some file”
$ git push

Check the project wiki and the manuals for full command reference and tutorials.

How can I render a list select box (dropdown) with bootstrap?

I'm currently fighting with dropdowns and I'd like to share my experiences:

There are specific situations where <select> can't be used and must be 'emulated' with dropdown.

For example if you want to create bootstrap input groups, like Buttons with dropdowns (see http://getbootstrap.com/components/#input-groups-buttons-dropdowns). Unfortunately <select> is not supported in input groups, it will not be rendered properly.

Or does anybody solved this already? I would be very interested on the solution.

And to make it even more complicated, you can't use so simply $(this).text() to catch what user selected in dropdown if you're using glypicons or font awesome icons as content for dropdown. For example: <li id="someId"><a href="#0"><i class="fa fa-minus"></i></a></li> Because in this case there is no text and if you will add some then it will be also displayed in dropdown element and this is unwanted.

I found two possible solutions:

1) Use $(this).html() to get content of the selected <li> element and then to examine it, but you will get something like <a href="#0"><i class="fa fa-minus"></i></a> so you need to play with this to extract what you need.

2) Use $(this).text() and hide the text in element in hidden span: <li id="someId"><a href="#0"><i class="fa fa-minus"><span class="hidden">text</span></i></a></li>. For me this is simple and elegant solution, you can put any text you need, text will be hidden, and you don't need to do any transformations of $(this).html() result like in option 1) to get what you need.

I hope it's clear and can help somebody :-)

Read .csv file in C

With fscanf read the file until you encounter ';' or \n, then you can just skip it with fscang(f, "%*c").

    FILE* f = fopen("test.txt", "r");
    ...
    
    do {
        result = fscanf(f, "%127[^;\n]", str);
        
        if(result == 0)
        {
            result = fscanf(f, "%*c");
        }
        else
        {
            //whatever you want to do with your value
            printf("%s\n", str);
        }
        
    } while(result != EOF);

    return 0;
}

Concatenating variables in Bash

Try doing this, there's no special character to concatenate in bash :

mystring="${arg1}12${arg2}endoffile"

explanations

If you don't put brackets, you will ask to concatenate $arg112 + $argendoffile (I guess that's not what you asked) like in the following example :

mystring="$arg112$arg2endoffile"

The brackets are delimiters for the variables when needed. When not needed, you can use it or not.

another solution

(less portable : require bash > 3.1)

$ arg1=foo
$ arg2=bar
$ mystring="$arg1"
$ mystring+="12"
$ mystring+="$arg2"
$ mystring+="endoffile"
$ echo "$mystring"
foo12barendoffile

how to get the one entry from hashmap without iterating

I guess the iterator may be the simplest solution.

return hashMapObject.entrySet().iterator().next();

Another solution (not pretty):

return new ArrayList(hashMapObject.entrySet()).get(0);

Or yet (not better):

return hashMapObject.entrySet().toArray()[0];

Best way to convert list to comma separated string in java

You could count the total length of the string first, and pass it to the StringBuilder constructor. And you do not need to convert the Set first.

Set<String> abc = new HashSet<String>();
abc.add("A");
abc.add("B");
abc.add("C");

String separator = ", ";
int total = abc.size() * separator.length();
for (String s : abc) {
    total += s.length();
}

StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder(total);
for (String s : abc) {
    sb.append(separator).append(s);
}

String result = sb.substring(separator.length()); // remove leading separator

What does principal end of an association means in 1:1 relationship in Entity framework

This is with reference to @Ladislav Mrnka's answer on using fluent api for configuring one-to-one relationship.

Had a situation where having FK of dependent must be it's PK was not feasible.

E.g., Foo already has one-to-many relationship with Bar.

public class Foo {
   public Guid FooId;
   public virtual ICollection<> Bars; 
}
public class Bar {
   //PK
   public Guid BarId;
   //FK to Foo
   public Guid FooId;
   public virtual Foo Foo;
}

Now, we had to add another one-to-one relationship between Foo and Bar.

public class Foo {
   public Guid FooId;
   public Guid PrimaryBarId;// needs to be removed(from entity),as we specify it in fluent api
   public virtual Bar PrimaryBar;
   public virtual ICollection<> Bars;
}
public class Bar {
   public Guid BarId;
   public Guid FooId;
   public virtual Foo PrimaryBarOfFoo;
   public virtual Foo Foo;
}

Here is how to specify one-to-one relationship using fluent api:

modelBuilder.Entity<Bar>()
            .HasOptional(p => p.PrimaryBarOfFoo)
            .WithOptionalPrincipal(o => o.PrimaryBar)
            .Map(x => x.MapKey("PrimaryBarId"));

Note that while adding PrimaryBarId needs to be removed, as we specifying it through fluent api.

Also note that method name [WithOptionalPrincipal()][1] is kind of ironic. In this case, Principal is Bar. WithOptionalDependent() description on msdn makes it more clear.

Loading and parsing a JSON file with multiple JSON objects

for those stumbling upon this question: the python jsonlines library (much younger than this question) elegantly handles files with one json document per line. see https://jsonlines.readthedocs.io/

Paste text on Android Emulator

I got tired of this problem so I just made this alias to handle it:

alias ap="pbpaste | xargs adb shell input text"

Then when you open a new terminal window, typing "ap" will paste whatever is on your clipboard into the emulator's actively selected text field.

Setup

Simply add this to your profile (for most users that's ~/.bash_profile for zsh users that's ~/.zshrc) to make the alias available everywhere. Alternatively, if you're a bash user (the default for MacOS), then you can run the following command in the terminal to set it up for you:

echo "alias ap='pbpaste | xargs adb shell input text'" >> ~/.bash_profile && source ~/.bash_profile

How to move or copy files listed by 'find' command in unix?

Actually, you can process the find command output in a copy command in two ways:

  1. If the find command's output doesn't contain any space, i.e if the filename doesn't contain a space in it, then you can use:

    Syntax:
        find <Path> <Conditions> | xargs cp -t <copy file path>
    Example:
        find -mtime -1 -type f | xargs cp -t inner/
    
  2. But our production data files might contain spaces, so most of time this command is effective:

    Syntax:
       find <path> <condition> -exec cp '{}' <copy path> \;
    
    Example 
       find -mtime -1 -type f -exec cp '{}' inner/ \;
    

In the second example, the last part, the semi-colon is also considered as part of the find command, and should be escaped before pressing Enter. Otherwise you will get an error something like:

find: missing argument to `-exec'

Finding the max/min value in an array of primitives using Java

The basic way to get the min/max value of an Array. If you need the unsorted array, you may create a copy or pass it to a method that returns the min or max. If not, sorted array is better since it performs faster in some cases.

public class MinMaxValueOfArray {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        int[] A = {2, 4, 3, 5, 5};
        Arrays.sort(A);
        int min = A[0];
        int max = A[A.length -1];
        System.out.println("Min Value = " + min);        
        System.out.println("Max Value = " + max);
    }
}

How can I use grep to find a word inside a folder?

grep -nr search_string search_dir

will do a RECURSIVE (meaning the directory and all it's sub-directories) search for the search_string. (as correctly answered by usta).

The reason you were not getting any anwers with your friend's suggestion of:

grep -nr string

is because no directory was specified. If you are in the directory that you want to do the search in, you have to do the following:

grep -nr string .

It is important to include the '.' character, as this tells grep to search THIS directory.

C# int to enum conversion

It's fine just to cast your int to Foo:

int i = 1;
Foo f = (Foo)i;

If you try to cast a value that's not defined it will still work. The only harm that may come from this is in how you use the value later on.

If you really want to make sure your value is defined in the enum, you can use Enum.IsDefined:

int i = 1;
if (Enum.IsDefined(typeof(Foo), i))
{
    Foo f = (Foo)i;
}
else
{
   // Throw exception, etc.
}

However, using IsDefined costs more than just casting. Which you use depends on your implemenation. You might consider restricting user input, or handling a default case when you use the enum.

Also note that you don't have to specify that your enum inherits from int; this is the default behavior.

How to print values separated by spaces instead of new lines in Python 2.7

First of all print isn't a function in Python 2, it is a statement.

To suppress the automatic newline add a trailing ,(comma). Now a space will be used instead of a newline.

Demo:

print 1,
print 2

output:

1 2

Or use Python 3's print() function:

from __future__ import print_function
print(1, end=' ') # default value of `end` is '\n'
print(2)

As you can clearly see print() function is much more powerful as we can specify any string to be used as end rather a fixed space.

If hasClass then addClass to parent

You can't use $(this) since jQuery doesn't know what it is there. You seem to be overcomplicating things. You can do $('#content h1.aktiv').hide(). There's no reason to test to see if the class exists.

What are metaclasses in Python?

What are metaclasses? What do you use them for?

TLDR: A metaclass instantiates and defines behavior for a class just like a class instantiates and defines behavior for an instance.

Pseudocode:

>>> Class(...)
instance

The above should look familiar. Well, where does Class come from? It's an instance of a metaclass (also pseudocode):

>>> Metaclass(...)
Class

In real code, we can pass the default metaclass, type, everything we need to instantiate a class and we get a class:

>>> type('Foo', (object,), {}) # requires a name, bases, and a namespace
<class '__main__.Foo'>

Putting it differently

  • A class is to an instance as a metaclass is to a class.

    When we instantiate an object, we get an instance:

    >>> object()                          # instantiation of class
    <object object at 0x7f9069b4e0b0>     # instance
    

    Likewise, when we define a class explicitly with the default metaclass, type, we instantiate it:

    >>> type('Object', (object,), {})     # instantiation of metaclass
    <class '__main__.Object'>             # instance
    
  • Put another way, a class is an instance of a metaclass:

    >>> isinstance(object, type)
    True
    
  • Put a third way, a metaclass is a class's class.

    >>> type(object) == type
    True
    >>> object.__class__
    <class 'type'>
    

When you write a class definition and Python executes it, it uses a metaclass to instantiate the class object (which will, in turn, be used to instantiate instances of that class).

Just as we can use class definitions to change how custom object instances behave, we can use a metaclass class definition to change the way a class object behaves.

What can they be used for? From the docs:

The potential uses for metaclasses are boundless. Some ideas that have been explored include logging, interface checking, automatic delegation, automatic property creation, proxies, frameworks, and automatic resource locking/synchronization.

Nevertheless, it is usually encouraged for users to avoid using metaclasses unless absolutely necessary.

You use a metaclass every time you create a class:

When you write a class definition, for example, like this,

class Foo(object): 
    'demo'

You instantiate a class object.

>>> Foo
<class '__main__.Foo'>
>>> isinstance(Foo, type), isinstance(Foo, object)
(True, True)

It is the same as functionally calling type with the appropriate arguments and assigning the result to a variable of that name:

name = 'Foo'
bases = (object,)
namespace = {'__doc__': 'demo'}
Foo = type(name, bases, namespace)

Note, some things automatically get added to the __dict__, i.e., the namespace:

>>> Foo.__dict__
dict_proxy({'__dict__': <attribute '__dict__' of 'Foo' objects>, 
'__module__': '__main__', '__weakref__': <attribute '__weakref__' 
of 'Foo' objects>, '__doc__': 'demo'})

The metaclass of the object we created, in both cases, is type.

(A side-note on the contents of the class __dict__: __module__ is there because classes must know where they are defined, and __dict__ and __weakref__ are there because we don't define __slots__ - if we define __slots__ we'll save a bit of space in the instances, as we can disallow __dict__ and __weakref__ by excluding them. For example:

>>> Baz = type('Bar', (object,), {'__doc__': 'demo', '__slots__': ()})
>>> Baz.__dict__
mappingproxy({'__doc__': 'demo', '__slots__': (), '__module__': '__main__'})

... but I digress.)

We can extend type just like any other class definition:

Here's the default __repr__ of classes:

>>> Foo
<class '__main__.Foo'>

One of the most valuable things we can do by default in writing a Python object is to provide it with a good __repr__. When we call help(repr) we learn that there's a good test for a __repr__ that also requires a test for equality - obj == eval(repr(obj)). The following simple implementation of __repr__ and __eq__ for class instances of our type class provides us with a demonstration that may improve on the default __repr__ of classes:

class Type(type):
    def __repr__(cls):
        """
        >>> Baz
        Type('Baz', (Foo, Bar,), {'__module__': '__main__', '__doc__': None})
        >>> eval(repr(Baz))
        Type('Baz', (Foo, Bar,), {'__module__': '__main__', '__doc__': None})
        """
        metaname = type(cls).__name__
        name = cls.__name__
        parents = ', '.join(b.__name__ for b in cls.__bases__)
        if parents:
            parents += ','
        namespace = ', '.join(': '.join(
          (repr(k), repr(v) if not isinstance(v, type) else v.__name__))
               for k, v in cls.__dict__.items())
        return '{0}(\'{1}\', ({2}), {{{3}}})'.format(metaname, name, parents, namespace)
    def __eq__(cls, other):
        """
        >>> Baz == eval(repr(Baz))
        True            
        """
        return (cls.__name__, cls.__bases__, cls.__dict__) == (
                other.__name__, other.__bases__, other.__dict__)

So now when we create an object with this metaclass, the __repr__ echoed on the command line provides a much less ugly sight than the default:

>>> class Bar(object): pass
>>> Baz = Type('Baz', (Foo, Bar,), {'__module__': '__main__', '__doc__': None})
>>> Baz
Type('Baz', (Foo, Bar,), {'__module__': '__main__', '__doc__': None})

With a nice __repr__ defined for the class instance, we have a stronger ability to debug our code. However, much further checking with eval(repr(Class)) is unlikely (as functions would be rather impossible to eval from their default __repr__'s).

An expected usage: __prepare__ a namespace

If, for example, we want to know in what order a class's methods are created in, we could provide an ordered dict as the namespace of the class. We would do this with __prepare__ which returns the namespace dict for the class if it is implemented in Python 3:

from collections import OrderedDict

class OrderedType(Type):
    @classmethod
    def __prepare__(metacls, name, bases, **kwargs):
        return OrderedDict()
    def __new__(cls, name, bases, namespace, **kwargs):
        result = Type.__new__(cls, name, bases, dict(namespace))
        result.members = tuple(namespace)
        return result

And usage:

class OrderedMethodsObject(object, metaclass=OrderedType):
    def method1(self): pass
    def method2(self): pass
    def method3(self): pass
    def method4(self): pass

And now we have a record of the order in which these methods (and other class attributes) were created:

>>> OrderedMethodsObject.members
('__module__', '__qualname__', 'method1', 'method2', 'method3', 'method4')

Note, this example was adapted from the documentation - the new enum in the standard library does this.

So what we did was instantiate a metaclass by creating a class. We can also treat the metaclass as we would any other class. It has a method resolution order:

>>> inspect.getmro(OrderedType)
(<class '__main__.OrderedType'>, <class '__main__.Type'>, <class 'type'>, <class 'object'>)

And it has approximately the correct repr (which we can no longer eval unless we can find a way to represent our functions.):

>>> OrderedMethodsObject
OrderedType('OrderedMethodsObject', (object,), {'method1': <function OrderedMethodsObject.method1 at 0x0000000002DB01E0>, 'members': ('__module__', '__qualname__', 'method1', 'method2', 'method3', 'method4'), 'method3': <function OrderedMet
hodsObject.method3 at 0x0000000002DB02F0>, 'method2': <function OrderedMethodsObject.method2 at 0x0000000002DB0268>, '__module__': '__main__', '__weakref__': <attribute '__weakref__' of 'OrderedMethodsObject' objects>, '__doc__': None, '__d
ict__': <attribute '__dict__' of 'OrderedMethodsObject' objects>, 'method4': <function OrderedMethodsObject.method4 at 0x0000000002DB0378>})

Python String and Integer concatenation

for i in range (1,10):
    string="string"+str(i)

To get string0, string1 ..... string10, you could do like

>>> ["string"+str(i) for i in range(11)]
['string0', 'string1', 'string2', 'string3', 'string4', 'string5', 'string6', 'string7', 'string8', 'string9', 'string10']

JavaScript seconds to time string with format hh:mm:ss

Here's a one-liner updated for 2019:

//your date
var someDate = new Date("Wed Jun 26 2019 09:38:02 GMT+0100") 

var result = `${String(someDate.getHours()).padStart(2,"0")}:${String(someDate.getMinutes()).padStart(2,"0")}:${String(someDate.getSeconds()).padStart(2,"0")}`

//result will be "09:38:02"

Format / Suppress Scientific Notation from Python Pandas Aggregation Results

If you want to style the output of a data frame in a jupyter notebook cell, you can set the display style on a per-dataframe basis:

df = pd.DataFrame({'A': np.random.randn(4)*1e7})
df.style.format("{:.1f}")

How to get html to print return value of javascript function?

There are some options to do that.

One would be:

document.write(produceMessage())

Other would be appending some element in your document this way:

var span = document.createElement("span");
span.appendChild(document.createTextNode(produceMessage()));
document.body.appendChild(span);

Or just:

document.body.appendChild(document.createTextNode(produceMessage()));

If you're using jQuery, you can do this:

$(document.body).append(produceMessage());

How do I change a single value in a data.frame?

To change a cell value using a column name, one can use

CSS selectors ul li a {...} vs ul > li > a {...}

to answer to your second question - performance IS affected - if you are using those selectors with a single (no nested) ul:

<ul>
    <li>jjj</li>
    <li>jjj</li>    
    <li>jjj</li>
</ul>

the child selector ul > li is more performant than ul li because it is more specific. the browser traverse the dom "right to left", so when it finds a li it then looks for a any ul as a parent in the case of a child selector, while it has to traverse the whole dom tree to find any ul ancestors in case of the descendant selector

Injecting $scope into an angular service function()

Got into the same predicament. I ended up with the following. So here I am not injecting the scope object into the factory, but setting the $scope in the controller itself using the concept of promise returned by $http service.

(function () {
    getDataFactory = function ($http)
    {
        return {
            callWebApi: function (reqData)
            {
                var dataTemp = {
                    Page: 1, Take: 10,
                    PropName: 'Id', SortOrder: 'Asc'
                };

                return $http({
                    method: 'GET',
                    url: '/api/PatientCategoryApi/PatCat',
                    params: dataTemp, // Parameters to pass to external service
                    headers: { 'Content-Type': 'application/Json' }
                })                
            }
        }
    }
    patientCategoryController = function ($scope, getDataFactory) {
        alert('Hare');
        var promise = getDataFactory.callWebApi('someDataToPass');
        promise.then(
            function successCallback(response) {
                alert(JSON.stringify(response.data));
                // Set this response data to scope to use it in UI
                $scope.gridOptions.data = response.data.Collection;
            }, function errorCallback(response) {
                alert('Some problem while fetching data!!');
            });
    }
    patientCategoryController.$inject = ['$scope', 'getDataFactory'];
    getDataFactory.$inject = ['$http'];
    angular.module('demoApp', []);
    angular.module('demoApp').controller('patientCategoryController', patientCategoryController);
    angular.module('demoApp').factory('getDataFactory', getDataFactory);    
}());

How to create range in Swift?

I want to do this:

print("Hello"[1...3])
// out: Error

But unfortunately, I can't write a subscript of my own because the loathed one takes up the name space.

We can do this however:

print("Hello"[range: 1...3])
// out: ell 

Just add this to your project:

extension String {
    subscript(range: ClosedRange<Int>) -> String {
        get {
            let start = String.Index(utf16Offset: range.lowerBound, in: self)
            let end = String.Index(utf16Offset: range.upperBound, in: self)
            return String(self[start...end])
        }
    }
}

Does a finally block always get executed in Java?

The finally block is always executed unless there is abnormal program termination, either resulting from a JVM crash or from a call to System.exit(0).

On top of that, any value returned from within the finally block will override the value returned prior to execution of the finally block, so be careful of checking all exit points when using try finally.

element not interactable exception in selenium web automation

I'm going to hedge this answer with this: I know it's crap.. and there's got to be a better way. (See above answers) But I tried all the suggestions here and still got nill. Ended up chasing errors, ripping the code to bits. Then I tried this:

import keyboard    
keyboard.press_and_release('tab')
keyboard.press_and_release('tab')
keyboard.press_and_release('tab') #repeat as needed
keyboard.press_and_release('space') 

It's pretty insufferable and you've got to make sure that you don't lose focus otherwise you'll just be tabbing and spacing on the wrong thing.

My assumption on why the other methods didn't work for me is that I'm trying to click on something the developers didn't want a bot clicking on. So I'm not clicking on it!

How do I create a right click context menu in Java Swing?

This question is a bit old - as are the answers (and the tutorial as well)

The current api for setting a popupMenu in Swing is

myComponent.setComponentPopupMenu(myPopupMenu);

This way it will be shown automagically, both for mouse and keyboard triggers (the latter depends on LAF). Plus, it supports re-using the same popup across a container's children. To enable that feature:

myChild.setInheritsPopupMenu(true);

Difference between BYTE and CHAR in column datatypes

One has exactly space for 11 bytes, the other for exactly 11 characters. Some charsets such as Unicode variants may use more than one byte per char, therefore the 11 byte field might have space for less than 11 chars depending on the encoding.

See also http://www.joelonsoftware.com/articles/Unicode.html

Method has the same erasure as another method in type

This is because Java Generics are implemented with Type Erasure.

Your methods would be translated, at compile time, to something like:

Method resolution occurs at compile time and doesn't consider type parameters. (see erickson's answer)

void add(Set ii);
void add(Set ss);

Both methods have the same signature without the type parameters, hence the error.

How to implement the ReLU function in Numpy

If we have 3 parameters (t0, a0, a1) for Relu, that is we want to implement

if x > t0:

We can use the following code:

X = X * (X > t0) * a1 +  X * (X < t0) * a0

X there is a matrix.

jquery select option click handler

The problem that I had with the change handler was that it triggered on every keypress that I scrolled up and down the <select>.

I wanted to get the event for whenever an option was clicked or when enter was pressed on the desired option. This is how I ended up doing it:

let blockChange = false;

$element.keydown(function (e) {

    const keycode = (e.keyCode ? e.keyCode : e.which);

    // prevents select opening when enter is pressed
    if (keycode === 13) {
        e.preventDefault();
    }

    // lets the change event know that these keypresses are to be ignored
    if([38, 40].indexOf(keycode) > -1){
        blockChange = true;
    }

});

$element.keyup(function(e) {

    const keycode = (e.keyCode ? e.keyCode : e.which);
    // handle enter press
    if(keycode === 13) {
        doSomething();
    }

});

$element.change(function(e) {

    // this effective handles the click only as preventDefault was used on enter
    if(!blockChange) {
        doSomething();
    }
    blockChange = false;

});

Set Jackson Timezone for Date deserialization

I had same problem with Calendar deserialization, solved extending CalendarDeserializer.
It forces UTC Timezone
I paste the code if someone need it:

@JacksonStdImpl
public class UtcCalendarDeserializer extends CalendarDeserializer {

    TimeZone TZ_UTC = TimeZone.getTimeZone("UTC");

    @Override
    public Calendar deserialize(JsonParser jp, DeserializationContext ctxt) throws IOException, JsonProcessingException {
        JsonToken t = jp.getCurrentToken();
        if (t == JsonToken.VALUE_NUMBER_INT) {
            Calendar cal = Calendar.getInstance(TZ_UTC);
            cal.clear();
            cal.setTimeInMillis(jp.getLongValue());

            return cal;
        }

        return super.deserialize(jp, ctxt);
    }
}

in JSON model class just annotate the field with:

@JsonDeserialize(using = UtcCalendarDeserializer.class)
private Calendar myCalendar;

How to get the file path from HTML input form in Firefox 3

Actually, just before FF3 was out, I did some experiments, and FF2 sends only the filename, like did Opera 9.0. Only IE sends the full path. The behavior makes sense, because the server doesn't have to know where the user stores the file on his computer, it is irrelevant to the upload process. Unless you are writing an intranet application and get the file by direct network access!

What have changed (and that's the real point of the bug item you point to) is that FF3 no longer let access to the file path from JavaScript. And won't let type/paste a path there, which is more annoying for me: I have a shell extension which copies the path of a file from Windows Explorer to the clipboard and I used it a lot in such form. I solved the issue by using the DragDropUpload extension. But this becomes off-topic, I fear.

I wonder what your Web forms are doing to stop working with this new behavior.

[EDIT] After reading the page linked by Mike, I see indeed intranet uses of the path (identify a user for example) and local uses (show preview of an image, local management of files). User Jam-es seems to provide a workaround with nsIDOMFile (not tried yet).

Progress Bar with HTML and CSS

There is a tutorial for creating an HTML5 progress bar here. If you don't want to use HTML5 methods or you are looking for an all-browser solution, try this code:

_x000D_
_x000D_
<div style="width: 150px; height: 25px; background-color: #dbdbdb;">
  <div style="height: 25px; width:87%; background-color: gold">&nbsp;</div>
</div>
_x000D_
_x000D_
_x000D_

You can change the color GOLD to any progress bar color and #dbdbdb to the background-color of your progress bar.

How to downgrade Java from 9 to 8 on a MACOS. Eclipse is not running with Java 9

You don't need to down grade. You can run more than one version of Java on MacOS. You can set the version of your terminal with this command in MacOS.

# List Java versions installed
/usr/libexec/java_home -V

# Java 11
export JAVA_HOME=$(/usr/libexec/java_home -v 11)

# Java 1.8
export JAVA_HOME=$(/usr/libexec/java_home -v 1.8)

# Java 1.7
export JAVA_HOME=$(/usr/libexec/java_home -v 1.7)

# Java 1.6
export JAVA_HOME=$(/usr/libexec/java_home -v 1.6)

You can set the default value in the .bashrc, .profile, or .zprofile

Using PUT method in HTML form

Unfortunately, modern browsers do not provide native support for HTTP PUT requests. To work around this limitation, ensure your HTML form’s method attribute is “post”, then add a method override parameter to your HTML form like this:

<input type="hidden" name="_METHOD" value="PUT"/>

To test your requests you can use "Postman" a google chrome extension

Rename a file using Java

Copied from http://exampledepot.8waytrips.com/egs/java.io/RenameFile.html

// File (or directory) with old name
File file = new File("oldname");

// File (or directory) with new name
File file2 = new File("newname");

if (file2.exists())
   throw new java.io.IOException("file exists");

// Rename file (or directory)
boolean success = file.renameTo(file2);

if (!success) {
   // File was not successfully renamed
}

To append to the new file:

java.io.FileWriter out= new java.io.FileWriter(file2, true /*append=yes*/);

Change drive in git bash for windows

JavaScript Form Submit - Confirm or Cancel Submission Dialog Box

A simple inline JavaScript confirm would suffice:

<form onsubmit="return confirm('Do you really want to submit the form?');">

No need for an external function unless you are doing validation, which you can do something like this:

<script>
function validate(form) {

    // validation code here ...


    if(!valid) {
        alert('Please correct the errors in the form!');
        return false;
    }
    else {
        return confirm('Do you really want to submit the form?');
    }
}
</script>
<form onsubmit="return validate(this);">

What's the best practice to round a float to 2 decimals?

//by importing Decimal format we can do...

import java.util.Scanner;
import java.text.DecimalFormat;
public class Average
{
public static void main(String[] args)
{
int sub1,sub2,sub3,total;
Scanner in = new Scanner(System.in);
System.out.print("Enter Subject 1 Marks : ");
sub1 = in.nextInt();
System.out.print("Enter Subject 2 Marks : ");
sub2 = in.nextInt();
System.out.print("Enter Subject 3 Marks : ");
sub3 = in.nextInt();
total = sub1 + sub2 + sub3;
System.out.println("Total Marks of Subjects = " + total);
res = (float)total;
average = res/3;
System.out.println("Before Rounding Decimal.. Average = " +average +"%");
DecimalFormat df = new DecimalFormat("###.##");
System.out.println("After Rounding Decimal.. Average = " +df.format(average)+"%");
}
}
/* Output
Enter Subject 1 Marks : 72
Enter Subject 2 Marks : 42
Enter Subject 3 Marks : 52
Total Marks of Subjects = 166
Before Rounding Decimal.. Average = 55.333332%
After Rounding Decimal.. Average = 55.33%
*/

/* Output
Enter Subject 1 Marks : 98
Enter Subject 2 Marks : 88
Enter Subject 3 Marks : 78
Total Marks of Subjects = 264
Before Rounding Decimal.. Average = 88.0%
After Rounding Decimal.. Average = 88%
*/

/* You can Find Avrerage values in two ouputs before rounding average
And After rounding Average..*/

When I accidentally switched to a guest wifi network I got this error. Had to switch back to my default wifi network.

Difference between final and effectively final

According to the docs:

A variable or parameter whose value is never changed after it is initialized is effectively final.

Basically, if the compiler finds a variable does not appear in assignments outside of its initialization, then the variable is considered effectively final.

For example, consider some class:

public class Foo {

    public void baz(int bar) {
        // While the next line is commented, bar is effectively final
        // and while it is uncommented, the assignment means it is not
        // effectively final.

        // bar = 2;
    }
}

Python way to clone a git repository

There is GitPython. Haven’t heard of it before and internally, it relies on having the git executables somewhere; additionally, they might have plenty of bugs. But it could be worth a try.

How to clone:

import git
git.Git("/your/directory/to/clone").clone("git://gitorious.org/git-python/mainline.git")

(It’s not nice and I don’t know if it is the supported way to do it, but it worked.)

Make XAMPP / Apache serve file outside of htdocs folder

If you're trying to get XAMPP to use a network drive as your document root you have to use UNC paths in httpd.conf. XAMPP will not recognize your mapped network drives.

For example the following won't work, DocumentRoot "X:/webroot"

But this will, DocumentRoot "//192.168.10.100/webroot" (note the forward slashes, not back slashes)

Python import csv to list

Next is a piece of code which uses csv module but extracts file.csv contents to a list of dicts using the first line which is a header of csv table

import csv
def csv2dicts(filename):
  with open(filename, 'rb') as f:
    reader = csv.reader(f)
    lines = list(reader)
    if len(lines) < 2: return None
    names = lines[0]
    if len(names) < 1: return None
    dicts = []
    for values in lines[1:]:
      if len(values) != len(names): return None
      d = {}
      for i,_ in enumerate(names):
        d[names[i]] = values[i]
      dicts.append(d)
    return dicts
  return None

if __name__ == '__main__':
  your_list = csv2dicts('file.csv')
  print your_list

How to convert rdd object to dataframe in spark

Note: This answer was originally posted here

I am posting this answer because I would like to share additional details about the available options that I did not find in the other answers


To create a DataFrame from an RDD of Rows, there are two main options:

1) As already pointed out, you could use toDF() which can be imported by import sqlContext.implicits._. However, this approach only works for the following types of RDDs:

  • RDD[Int]
  • RDD[Long]
  • RDD[String]
  • RDD[T <: scala.Product]

(source: Scaladoc of the SQLContext.implicits object)

The last signature actually means that it can work for an RDD of tuples or an RDD of case classes (because tuples and case classes are subclasses of scala.Product).

So, to use this approach for an RDD[Row], you have to map it to an RDD[T <: scala.Product]. This can be done by mapping each row to a custom case class or to a tuple, as in the following code snippets:

val df = rdd.map({ 
  case Row(val1: String, ..., valN: Long) => (val1, ..., valN)
}).toDF("col1_name", ..., "colN_name")

or

case class MyClass(val1: String, ..., valN: Long = 0L)
val df = rdd.map({ 
  case Row(val1: String, ..., valN: Long) => MyClass(val1, ..., valN)
}).toDF("col1_name", ..., "colN_name")

The main drawback of this approach (in my opinion) is that you have to explicitly set the schema of the resulting DataFrame in the map function, column by column. Maybe this can be done programatically if you don't know the schema in advance, but things can get a little messy there. So, alternatively, there is another option:


2) You can use createDataFrame(rowRDD: RDD[Row], schema: StructType) as in the accepted answer, which is available in the SQLContext object. Example for converting an RDD of an old DataFrame:

val rdd = oldDF.rdd
val newDF = oldDF.sqlContext.createDataFrame(rdd, oldDF.schema)

Note that there is no need to explicitly set any schema column. We reuse the old DF's schema, which is of StructType class and can be easily extended. However, this approach sometimes is not possible, and in some cases can be less efficient than the first one.

How do I see if Wi-Fi is connected on Android?

Many of answers use deprecated code, or code available on higer API versions. Now I use something like this

ConnectivityManager connectivityManager = (ConnectivityManager) context.getSystemService(Context.CONNECTIVITY_SERVICE);
        if(connectivityManager != null) {
            for (Network net : connectivityManager.getAllNetworks()) {
                NetworkCapabilities nc = connectivityManager.getNetworkCapabilities(net);
                if (nc != null && nc.hasTransport(NetworkCapabilities.TRANSPORT_WIFI)
                        && nc.hasCapability(NetworkCapabilities.NET_CAPABILITY_INTERNET))
                    return true;
            }
        }
        return false;

How to handle checkboxes in ASP.NET MVC forms?

Html.CheckBox is doing something weird - if you view source on the resulting page, you'll see there's an <input type="hidden" /> being generated alongside each checkbox, which explains the "true false" values you're seeing for each form element.

Try this, which definitely works on ASP.NET MVC Beta because I've just tried it.

Put this in the view instead of using Html.CheckBox():

<% using (Html.BeginForm("ShowData", "Home")) {  %>
  <% foreach (var o in ViewData.Model) { %>
    <input type="checkbox" name="selectedObjects" value="<%=o.Id%>">
    <%= o.Name %>
  <%}%>
  <input type="submit" value="Submit" />
<%}%>

Your checkboxes are all called selectedObjects, and the value of each checkbox is the GUID of the corresponding object.

Then post to the following controller action (or something similar that does something useful instead of Response.Write())

public ActionResult ShowData(Guid[] selectedObjects) {
    foreach (Guid guid in selectedObjects) {
        Response.Write(guid.ToString());
    }
    Response.End();
    return (new EmptyResult());
}

This example will just write the GUIDs of the boxes you checked; ASP.NET MVC maps the GUID values of the selected checkboxes into the Guid[] selectedObjects parameter for you, and even parses the strings from the Request.Form collection into instantied GUID objects, which I think is rather nice.

sorting a vector of structs

Yes: you can sort using a custom comparison function:

std::sort(info.begin(), info.end(), my_custom_comparison);

my_custom_comparison needs to be a function or a class with an operator() overload (a functor) that takes two data objects and returns a bool indicating whether the first is ordered prior to the second (i.e., first < second). Alternatively, you can overload operator< for your class type data; operator< is the default ordering used by std::sort.

Either way, the comparison function must yield a strict weak ordering of the elements.

UIScrollView not scrolling

After failing with the provided answers in this thread, I stumbled upon this article with the solution.

There are two things not intuitive about setting up the scrollview with autolayout:

  1. The constraints you set up as margin between the contentview and scrollview do not influence the size of the contentview. They really are margins. And to make it work, the contentview should have a fixed size.
  2. The trick to the fixed size is that you can set the width of the contentview equal to that of the scrollview's parent. Just select both views in the tree on the left and add the equal widths constraint.

This is the gist of that article. For a complete explanation, including illustrations, check it out.

XSLT counting elements with a given value

Your xpath is just a little off:

count(//Property/long[text()=$parPropId])

Edit: Cerebrus quite rightly points out that the code in your OP (using the implicit value of a node) is absolutely fine for your purposes. In fact, since it's quite likely you want to work with the "Property" node rather than the "long" node, it's probably superior to ask for //Property[long=$parPropId] than the text() xpath, though you could make a case for the latter on readability grounds.

What can I say, I'm a bit tired today :)

Unexpected end of file error

Change the Platform of your C++ project to "x64" (or whichever platform you are targeting) instead of "Win32". This can be found in Visual Studio under Build -> Configuration Manager. Find your project in the list and change the Platform column. Don't forget to do this for all solution configurations.

Docker: Copying files from Docker container to host

Mount a "volume" and copy the artifacts into there:

mkdir artifacts
docker run -i -v ${PWD}/artifacts:/artifacts ubuntu:14.04 sh << COMMANDS
# ... build software here ...
cp <artifact> /artifacts
# ... copy more artifacts into `/artifacts` ...
COMMANDS

Then when the build finishes and the container is no longer running, it has already copied the artifacts from the build into the artifacts directory on the host.

Edit

Caveat: When you do this, you may run into problems with the user id of the docker user matching the user id of the current running user. That is, the files in /artifacts will be shown as owned by the user with the UID of the user used inside the docker container. A way around this may be to use the calling user's UID:

docker run -i -v ${PWD}:/working_dir -w /working_dir -u $(id -u) \
    ubuntu:14.04 sh << COMMANDS
# Since $(id -u) owns /working_dir, you should be okay running commands here
# and having them work. Then copy stuff into /working_dir/artifacts .
COMMANDS

Bootstrap 3 modal responsive

Old post. I ended up setting media queries and using max-width: YYpx; and width:auto; for each breakpoint. This will scale w/ images as well (per say you have an image that's 740px width on the md screen), the modal will scale down to 740px (excluding padding for the .modal-body, if applied)

<div class="modal fade" id="bs-button-info-modal" tabindex="-1" role="dialog" aria-labelledby="Button Information Modal">
    <div class="modal-dialog modal-dialog-centered" role="document">
        <div class="modal-content">
            <button type="button" class="close" data-dismiss="modal" aria-label="Close">
                <span aria-hidden="true">&times;</span>
            </button>
            <div class="modal-body"></div>
        </div>
    </div>
</div>

Note that I'm using SCSS, bootstrap 3.3.7, and did not make any additional edits to the _modals.scss file that _bootstrap.scss imports. The CSS below is added to an additional SCSS file and imported AFTER _bootstrap.scss.

It is also important to note that the original bootstrap styles for .modal-dialog is not set for the default 992px breakpoint, only as high as the 768px breakpoint (which has a hard set width applied width: 600px;, hence why I overrode it w/ width: auto;.

@media (min-width: $screen-sm-min) { // this is the 768px breakpoint
    .modal-dialog {
        max-width: 600px;
        width: auto;
    }
}

@media (min-width: $screen-md-min) { // this is the 992px breakpoint
    .modal-dialog { 
        max-width: 800px;
    }
}

Example below of modal being responsive with an image.

Selecting empty text input using jQuery

Since creating an JQuery object for every comparison is not efficient, just use:

$.expr[":"].blank = function(element) {
    return element.value == "";
};

Then you can do:

$(":input:blank")

Display a message in Visual Studio's output window when not debug mode?

The results are not in the Output window but in the Test Results Detail (TestResult Pane at the bottom, right click on on Test Results and go to TestResultDetails).

This works with Debug.WriteLine and Console.WriteLine.

Is there a way to make npm install (the command) to work behind proxy?

I tried all of these options, but my proxy wasn't having any of it for some reason. Then, born out of desparation/despair, I randomly tried curl in my Git Bash shell, and it worked.

Unsetting all of the proxy options using

npm config rm proxy
npm config rm https-proxy

And then running npm install in my Git Bash shell worked perfectly. I don't know how it's set up correctly for the proxy and the Windows cmd prompt isn't, but it worked.

How to convert a Hibernate proxy to a real entity object

Thank you for the suggested solutions! Unfortunately, none of them worked for my case: receiving a list of CLOB objects from Oracle database through JPA - Hibernate, using a native query.

All of the proposed approaches gave me either a ClassCastException or just returned java Proxy object (which deeply inside contained the desired Clob).

So my solution is the following (based on several above approaches):

Query sqlQuery = manager.createNativeQuery(queryStr);
List resultList = sqlQuery.getResultList();
for ( Object resultProxy : resultList ) {
    String unproxiedClob = unproxyClob(resultProxy);
    if ( unproxiedClob != null ) {
       resultCollection.add(unproxiedClob);
    }
}

private String unproxyClob(Object proxy) {
    try {
        BeanInfo beanInfo = Introspector.getBeanInfo(proxy.getClass());
        for (PropertyDescriptor property : beanInfo.getPropertyDescriptors()) {
            Method readMethod = property.getReadMethod();
            if ( readMethod.getName().contains("getWrappedClob") ) {
                Object result = readMethod.invoke(proxy);
                return clobToString((Clob) result);
            }
        }
    }
    catch (InvocationTargetException | IntrospectionException | IllegalAccessException | SQLException | IOException e) {
        LOG.error("Unable to unproxy CLOB value.", e);
    }
    return null;
}

private String clobToString(Clob data) throws SQLException, IOException {
    StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder();
    Reader reader = data.getCharacterStream();
    BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(reader);

    String line;
    while( null != (line = br.readLine()) ) {
        sb.append(line);
    }
    br.close();

    return sb.toString();
}

Hope this will help somebody!

How to remove application from app listings on Android Developer Console

Actually it is now partially possible: https://support.google.com/googleplay/android-developer/answer/9023647

Updates to reports

In late May 2018, you may begin to see changes in your app's metrics based on your users' deletion of data. Some metrics are calculated based on data from users who have agreed to share their data with developers in aggregate.

The metrics that we provide in the Play Console are adjusted to more closely reflect data from all of your users. However, Google will not display data that falls under certain minimum thresholds.

Delete an app or game

You can permanently remove draft apps or games from your Play Console. You can also delete:

  1. Published apps or games that haven't been installed on any devices
  2. Published apps or games that no users are entitled to re-install

In these cases, contact our support team to request that your app's or game's data be permanently deleted.

Datanode process not running in Hadoop

  1. Stop the dfs and yarn first.
  2. Remove the datanode and namenode directories as specified in the core-site.xml file.
  3. Re-create the directories.
  4. Then re-start the dfs and the yarn as follows.

    start-dfs.sh

    start-yarn.sh

    mr-jobhistory-daemon.sh start historyserver

    Hope this works fine.

How to install older version of node.js on Windows?

How do I create a link using javascript?

There are a couple of ways:

If you want to use raw Javascript (without a helper like JQuery), then you could do something like:

var link = "http://google.com";
var element = document.createElement("a");
element.setAttribute("href", link);
element.innerHTML = "your text";

// and append it to where you'd like it to go:
document.body.appendChild(element);

The other method is to write the link directly into the document:

document.write("<a href='" + link + "'>" + text + "</a>");

Maven: How to include jars, which are not available in reps into a J2EE project?

How do we update URL or query strings using javascript/jQuery without reloading the page?

You'll need to be more specific. What do you mean by 'update the URL'? It could mean automatically navigating to a different page, which is certainly possible.

Plot two histograms on single chart with matplotlib

Also an option which is quite similar to joaquin answer:

import random
from matplotlib import pyplot

#random data
x = [random.gauss(3,1) for _ in range(400)]
y = [random.gauss(4,2) for _ in range(400)]

#plot both histograms(range from -10 to 10), bins set to 100
pyplot.hist([x,y], bins= 100, range=[-10,10], alpha=0.5, label=['x', 'y'])
#plot legend
pyplot.legend(loc='upper right')
#show it
pyplot.show()

Gives the following output:

How to get min, seconds and milliseconds from datetime.now() in python?

Another similar solution:

>>> a=datetime.now()
>>> "%s:%s.%s" % (a.hour, a.minute, a.microsecond)

Yes, I know I didn't get the string formatting perfect.

No compiler is provided in this environment. Perhaps you are running on a JRE rather than a JDK?

I got a solution.

The most common solution for this problem is to change jdk location as my Installed JREs instead of the JRE location but that did not solve my problem this one time.

So I did the below to solve the problem. Expand the Installed JREs tab and you will find a Execution environments tab.

Click on your favourite execution environment. In my case it was JAVASE-1.8. There it shows 2 options. JDK and JRE. Select JDK there and the problem is solved.

How to set only time part of a DateTime variable in C#

I'm not sure exactly what you're trying to do but you can set the date/time to exactly what you want in a number of ways...

You can specify 12/25/2010 4:58 PM by using

DateTime myDate = Convert.ToDateTime("2010-12-25 16:58:00");

OR if you have an existing datetime construct , say 12/25/2010 (and any random time) and you want to set it to 12/25/2010 4:58 PM, you could do so like this:

DateTime myDate = ExistingTime.Date.AddHours(16).AddMinutes(58);

The ExistingTime.Date will be 12/25 at midnight, and you just add hours and minutes to get it to the time you want.

How to find which version of TensorFlow is installed in my system?

python3 -c 'import tensorflow as tf; print(tf.__version__)'  # for Python 3

The following figure shows the output:

SQL SERVER, SELECT statement with auto generate row id

You can do this directly in SQL2000, as per Microsoft's page: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;186133

 select rank=count(*), a1.au_lname, a1.au_fname
   from authors a1, authors a2
   where a1.au_lname + a1.au_fname >= a2.au_lname + a2.au_fname
   group by a1.au_lname, a1.au_fname
   order by rank

The only problem with this approach is that (As Jeff says on SQL Server Central) it's a triangular join. So, if you have ten records this will be quick, if you have a thousand records it will be slow, and with a million records it may never complete!

See here for a better explanation of triangular joins: http://www.sqlservercentral.com/articles/T-SQL/61539/


How to remove margin space around body or clear default css styles

That's the default margin/padding of the body element.

Some browsers have a default margin, some a default padding, and both are applied as a padding in the body element.

Add this to your CSS:

body { margin: 0; padding: 0; }

Spring MVC: Error 400 The request sent by the client was syntactically incorrect

I also had this issue and my solution was different, so adding here for any who have similar problem.

My controller had:

@RequestMapping(value = "/setPassword", method = RequestMethod.POST)
public String setPassword(Model model, @RequestParameter SetPassword setPassword) {
    ...
}

The issue was that this should be @ModelAttribute for the object, not @RequestParameter. The error message for this is the same as you describe in your question.

@RequestMapping(value = "/setPassword", method = RequestMethod.POST)
public String setPassword(Model model, @ModelAttribute SetPassword setPassword) {
    ...
}

Regex to replace everything except numbers and a decimal point

Use this:

document.getElementById(target).value = newVal.replace(/[^0-9.]/g, '');

How to measure elapsed time in Python?

Python 3 only:

Since time.clock() is deprecated as of Python 3.3, you will want to use time.perf_counter() for system-wide timing, or time.process_time() for process-wide timing, just the way you used to use time.clock():

import time

t = time.process_time()
#do some stuff
elapsed_time = time.process_time() - t

The new function process_time will not include time elapsed during sleep.

Warning: mysql_connect(): [2002] No such file or directory (trying to connect via unix:///tmp/mysql.sock) in

When you face the following issue:

Then restart web service in server admin

how to modify the size of a column

Regardless of what error Oracle SQL Developer may indicate in the syntax highlighting, actually running your alter statement exactly the way you originally had it works perfectly:

ALTER TABLE TEST_PROJECT2 MODIFY proj_name VARCHAR2(300);

You only need to add parenthesis if you need to alter more than one column at once, such as:

ALTER TABLE TEST_PROJECT2 MODIFY (proj_name VARCHAR2(400), proj_desc VARCHAR2(400));

How to make a button redirect to another page using jQuery or just Javascript

And in Rails 3 with CoffeeScript using unobtrusive JavaScript (UJS):

Add to assets/javascripts/my_controller.js.coffee:

    window.location.href = 'new_url'

which reads: when the document.ready event has fired, add an onclick event to a DOM object whose ID is field_name which executes the javascript window.location.href='new_url';

How to change the default docker registry from docker.io to my private registry?

There is the use case of a mirror of Docker Hub (such as Artifactory or a custom one), which I haven't seen mentioned here. This is one of the most valid cases where changing the default registry is needed.

Luckily, Docker (at least version 19.03.3) allows you to set a mirror (tested in Docker CE). I don't know if this will work with additional images pushed to that mirror that aren't on Docker Hub, but I do know it will use the mirror instead. Docker documentation: https://docs.docker.com/registry/recipes/mirror/#configure-the-docker-daemon.

Essentially, you need to add "registry-mirrors": [] to the /etc/docker/daemon.json configuration file. So if you have a mirror hosted at https://my-docker-repo.my.company.com, your /etc/docker/daemon.json should contain:

{
  "registry-mirrors": ["https://my-docker-repo-mirror.my.company.com"]
}

Afterwards, restart the Docker daemon. Now if you do a docker pull postgres:12, Docker should fetch the image from the mirror instead of directly from Docker Hub. This is much better than prepending all images with my-docker-repo.my.company.com

How do I remove version tracking from a project cloned from git?

df >> query('foo > @y') # plydata
df.query('foo > @y') # pandas

Angular 6: How to set response type as text while making http call

On your backEnd, you should add:

  const headers = new HttpHeaders().set('Content-Type', 'text/plain; charset=utf-8');
  return this.http.get(this.url,{ headers, responseType: 'text'});
}

XMLHttpRequest cannot load an URL with jQuery

You can't do a XMLHttpRequest crossdomain, the only "option" would be a technique called JSONP, which comes down to this:

To start request: Add a new <script> tag with the remote url, and then make sure that remote url returns a valid javascript file that calls your callback function. Some services support this (and let you name your callback in a GET parameters).

The other easy way out, would be to create a "proxy" on your local server, which gets the remote request and then just "forwards" it back to your javascript.

edit/addition:

I see jQuery has built-in support for JSONP, by checking if the URL contains "callback=?" (where jQuery will replace ? with the actual callback method). But you'd still need to process that on the remote server to generate a valid response.

How do I add a Maven dependency in Eclipse?

Open the pom.xml file.

under the project tag add <dependencies> as another tag, and google for the Maven dependencies. I used this to search.

So after getting the dependency create another tag dependency inside <dependencies> tag.

How to properly compare two Integers in Java?

== checks for reference equality, however when writing code like:

Integer a = 1;
Integer b = 1;

Java is smart enough to reuse the same immutable for a and b, so this is true: a == b. Curious, I wrote a small example to show where java stops optimizing in this way:

public class BoxingLol {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        for (int i = 0; i < Integer.MAX_VALUE; i++) {
            Integer a = i;
            Integer b = i;
            if (a != b) {
                System.out.println("Done: " + i);
                System.exit(0);
            }
        }
        System.out.println("Done, all values equal");
    }
}

When I compile and run this (on my machine), I get:

Done: 128

How to discard local changes and pull latest from GitHub repository

In addition to the above answers, there is always the scorched earth method.

rm -R <folder>

in Windows shell the command is:

rd /s <folder>

Then you can just checkout the project again:

git clone -v <repository URL>

-split outputs an array, and you can save it to a variable like this:

$a = -split 'Once  upon    a     time'

$c

a
