SQL Server IF EXISTS THEN 1 ELSE 2

How about using IIF?

SELECT IIF (EXISTS (SELECT 1 FROM tblGLUserAccess WHERE GLUserName ='xxxxxxxx'), 1, 2)

Also, if using EXISTS to check the the existence of rows, don't use *, just use 1. I believe it has the least cost.

PHP - Extracting a property from an array of objects

Warning create_function() has been DEPRECATED as of PHP 7.2.0. Relying on this function is highly discouraged.

You can use the array_map() function.
This should do it:

$catIds = array_map(create_function('$o', 'return $o->id;'), $objects);

As @Relequestual writes below, the function is now integrated directly in the array_map. The new version of the solution looks like this:

$catIds = array_map(function($o) { return $o->id;}, $objects);

Subversion stuck due to "previous operation has not finished"?

I got the same problem, in my case I was using svn tortoise with the application I mean. Using the cmd shell of windows in root mode I applied svn cleanup and then svn update.... Then you can comeback to the application mode aand it will work perfectly!

reducing number of plot ticks

When a log scale is used the number of major ticks can be fixed with the following command

import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

....

plt.locator_params(numticks=12)
plt.show()

The value set to numticks determines the number of axis ticks to be displayed.

Credits to @bgamari's post for introducing the locator_params() function, but the nticks parameter throws an error when a log scale is used.

How do I make jQuery wait for an Ajax call to finish before it returns?

It should wait until get request completed. After that I'll return get request body from where function is called.

function foo() {
    var jqXHR = $.ajax({
        url: url,
        type: 'GET',
        async: false,
    });
    return JSON.parse(jqXHR.responseText);  
}

How to trigger ngClick programmatically

The best solution is to use:

domElement.click()

Because the angularjs triggerHandler(angular.element(domElement).triggerHandler('click')) click events does not bubble up in the DOM hierarchy, but the one above does - just like a normal mouse click.

Error retrieving parent for item: No resource found that matches the given name 'android:TextAppearance.Material.Widget.Button.Borderless.Colored'

Your compile SDK version must match the support library. so do one of the following:

1.In your Build.gradle change

compile 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:23.0.1'

2.Or change:

compileSdkVersion 23
buildToolsVersion "23.0.2"

to

compileSdkVersion 25
buildToolsVersion "25.0.2"

As you are using : compile 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:25.3.1'

i would recommend to use the 2nd method as it is using the latest sdk - so you can able to utilize the new functionality of the latest sdk.

EDIT

if you are using Facebook Account Kit

don't use: compile 'com.facebook.android:account-kit-sdk:4.+'

instead use a specific version like:

compile 'com.facebook.android:account-kit-sdk:4.12.0'

there is a problem with the latest version in account kit with sdk 23

EDIT

For Facebook Android Sdk

in your build.gradle instead of:

compile 'com.facebook.android:facebook-android-sdk: 4.+'

use a specific version:

compile 'com.facebook.android:facebook-android-sdk:4.18.0'

there is a problem with the latest version in Facebook sdk with Android sdk version 23.

"Series objects are mutable and cannot be hashed" error

gene_name = no_headers.iloc[1:,[1]]

This creates a DataFrame because you passed a list of columns (single, but still a list). When you later do this:

gene_name[x]

you now have a Series object with a single value. You can't hash the Series.

The solution is to create Series from the start.

gene_type = no_headers.iloc[1:,0]
gene_name = no_headers.iloc[1:,1]
disease_name = no_headers.iloc[1:,2]

Also, where you have orph_dict[gene_name[x]] =+ 1, I'm guessing that's a typo and you really mean orph_dict[gene_name[x]] += 1 to increment the counter.

Java: Array with loop

I'm not sure what structure you want your resulting array in, but the following code will do what I think you're asking for:

int sum = 0;
int[] results = new int[100];
for (int i = 0; i < 100; i++) {
  sum += (i+1);
  results[i] = sum;
}

Gives you an array of the sum at each point in the loop [1, 3, 6, 10...]

How do you find the first key in a dictionary?

Use a for loop that ranges through all keys in prices:

for key, value in prices.items():
     print key

Make sure that you change prices.items() to prices.iteritems() if you're using Python 2.x

C# "must declare a body because it is not marked abstract, extern, or partial"

You DO NOT have to provide a body for getters and setters IF you'd like the automated compiler to provide a basic implementation.

How to construct a std::string from a std::vector<char>?

Just for completeness, another way is std::string(&v[0]) (although you need to ensure your string is null-terminated and std::string(v.data()) is generally to be preferred.

The difference is that you can use the former technique to pass the vector to functions that want to modify the buffer, which you cannot do with .data().

Should composer.lock be committed to version control?

You then commit the composer.json to your project and everyone else on your team can run composer install to install your project dependencies.

The point of the lock file is to record the exact versions that are installed so they can be re-installed. This means that if you have a version spec of 1.* and your co-worker runs composer update which installs 1.2.4, and then commits the composer.lock file, when you composer install, you will also get 1.2.4, even if 1.3.0 has been released. This ensures everybody working on the project has the same exact version.

This means that if anything has been committed since the last time a composer install was done, then, without a lock file, you will get new third-party code being pulled down.

Again, this is a problem if you’re concerned about your code breaking. And it’s one of the reasons why it’s important to think about Composer as being centered around the composer.lock file.

Source: Composer: It’s All About the Lock File.


Commit your application's composer.lock (along with composer.json) into version control. This is important because the install command checks if a lock file is present, and if it is, it downloads the versions specified there (regardless of what composer.json says). This means that anyone who sets up the project will download the exact same version of the dependencies. Your CI server, production machines, other developers in your team, everything and everyone runs on the same dependencies, which mitigates the potential for bugs affecting only some parts of the deployments. Even if you develop alone, in six months when reinstalling the project you can feel confident the dependencies installed are still working even if your dependencies released many new versions since then.

Find the most frequent number in a NumPy array

Here is a general solution that may be applied along an axis, regardless of values, using purely numpy. I've also found that this is much faster than scipy.stats.mode if there are a lot of unique values.

import numpy

def mode(ndarray, axis=0):
    # Check inputs
    ndarray = numpy.asarray(ndarray)
    ndim = ndarray.ndim
    if ndarray.size == 1:
        return (ndarray[0], 1)
    elif ndarray.size == 0:
        raise Exception('Cannot compute mode on empty array')
    try:
        axis = range(ndarray.ndim)[axis]
    except:
        raise Exception('Axis "{}" incompatible with the {}-dimension array'.format(axis, ndim))

    # If array is 1-D and numpy version is > 1.9 numpy.unique will suffice
    if all([ndim == 1,
            int(numpy.__version__.split('.')[0]) >= 1,
            int(numpy.__version__.split('.')[1]) >= 9]):
        modals, counts = numpy.unique(ndarray, return_counts=True)
        index = numpy.argmax(counts)
        return modals[index], counts[index]

    # Sort array
    sort = numpy.sort(ndarray, axis=axis)
    # Create array to transpose along the axis and get padding shape
    transpose = numpy.roll(numpy.arange(ndim)[::-1], axis)
    shape = list(sort.shape)
    shape[axis] = 1
    # Create a boolean array along strides of unique values
    strides = numpy.concatenate([numpy.zeros(shape=shape, dtype='bool'),
                                 numpy.diff(sort, axis=axis) == 0,
                                 numpy.zeros(shape=shape, dtype='bool')],
                                axis=axis).transpose(transpose).ravel()
    # Count the stride lengths
    counts = numpy.cumsum(strides)
    counts[~strides] = numpy.concatenate([[0], numpy.diff(counts[~strides])])
    counts[strides] = 0
    # Get shape of padded counts and slice to return to the original shape
    shape = numpy.array(sort.shape)
    shape[axis] += 1
    shape = shape[transpose]
    slices = [slice(None)] * ndim
    slices[axis] = slice(1, None)
    # Reshape and compute final counts
    counts = counts.reshape(shape).transpose(transpose)[slices] + 1

    # Find maximum counts and return modals/counts
    slices = [slice(None, i) for i in sort.shape]
    del slices[axis]
    index = numpy.ogrid[slices]
    index.insert(axis, numpy.argmax(counts, axis=axis))
    return sort[index], counts[index]

Thymeleaf using path variables to th:href

Your code looks syntactically correct, but I think your property doesn't exist to create the URL.

I just tested it, and it works fine for me.

Try using category.idCategory instead of category.id, for example…

  <tr th:each="category : ${categories}">
    <td th:text="${category.idCategory}"></td>
    <td th:text="${category.name}"></td>
    <td>
      <a th:href="@{'/category/edit/' + ${category.idCategory}}">view</a>
    </td>
  </tr>

Detecting user leaving page with react-router

For react-router v3.x

I had the same issue where I needed a confirmation message for any unsaved change on the page. In my case, I was using React Router v3, so I could not use <Prompt />, which was introduced from React Router v4.

I handled 'back button click' and 'accidental link click' with the combination of setRouteLeaveHook and history.pushState(), and handled 'reload button' with onbeforeunload event handler.

setRouteLeaveHook (doc) & history.pushState (doc)

  • Using only setRouteLeaveHook was not enough. For some reason, the URL was changed although the page remained the same when 'back button' was clicked.

      // setRouteLeaveHook returns the unregister method
      this.unregisterRouteHook = this.props.router.setRouteLeaveHook(
        this.props.route,
        this.routerWillLeave
      );
    
      ...
    
      routerWillLeave = nextLocation => {
        // Using native 'confirm' method to show confirmation message
        const result = confirm('Unsaved work will be lost');
        if (result) {
          // navigation confirmed
          return true;
        } else {
          // navigation canceled, pushing the previous path
          window.history.pushState(null, null, this.props.route.path);
          return false;
        }
      };
    

onbeforeunload (doc)

  • It is used to handle 'accidental reload' button

    window.onbeforeunload = this.handleOnBeforeUnload;
    
    ...
    
    handleOnBeforeUnload = e => {
      const message = 'Are you sure?';
      e.returnValue = message;
      return message;
    }
    

Below is the full component that I have written

  • note that withRouter is used to have this.props.router.
  • note that this.props.route is passed down from the calling component
  • note that currentState is passed as prop to have initial state and to check any change

    import React from 'react';
    import PropTypes from 'prop-types';
    import _ from 'lodash';
    import { withRouter } from 'react-router';
    import Component from '../Component';

      constructor(props) {
        super(props);
        this.state = {
          // initialize the initial state to check any change
          initialState: _.cloneDeep(props.currentState),
          hookMounted: false
        };
      }
    
      componentDidUpdate() {
    
       // I used the library called 'lodash'
       // but you can use your own way to check any unsaved changed
        const unsaved = !_.isEqual(
          this.state.initialState,
          this.props.currentState
        );
    
        if (!unsaved && this.state.hookMounted) {
          // unregister hooks
          this.setState({ hookMounted: false });
          this.unregisterRouteHook();
          window.onbeforeunload = null;
        } else if (unsaved && !this.state.hookMounted) {
          // register hooks
          this.setState({ hookMounted: true });

        if (result) {
          return true;
        } else {
          window.history.pushState(null, null, this.props.route.path);
          if (this.formStartEle) {
            this.moveTo.move(this.formStartEle);
          }
          return false;
        }
      };

CORS - How do 'preflight' an httprequest?

Although this thread dates back to 2014, the issue can still be current to many of us. Here is how I dealt with it in a jQuery 1.12 /PHP 5.6 context:

  • jQuery sent its XHR request using only limited headers; only 'Origin' was sent.
  • No preflight request was needed.
  • The server only had to detect such a request, and add the "Access-Control-Allow-Origin: " . $_SERVER['HTTP_ORIGIN'] header, after detecting that this was a cross-origin XHR.

PHP Code sample:

if (!empty($_SERVER['HTTP_ORIGIN'])) {
    // Uh oh, this XHR comes from outer space...
    // Use this opportunity to filter out referers that shouldn't be allowed to see this request
    if (!preg_match('@\.partner\.domain\.net$@'))
        die("End of the road if you're not my business partner.");

    // otherwise oblige
    header("Access-Control-Allow-Origin: " . $_SERVER['HTTP_ORIGIN']);
}
else {
    // local request, no need to send a specific header for CORS
}

In particular, don't add an exit; as no preflight is needed.

How can I get the file name from request.FILES?

request.FILES['filename'].name

From the request documentation.

If you don't know the key, you can iterate over the files:

for filename, file in request.FILES.iteritems():
    name = request.FILES[filename].name

You can also change Window's environment variables with:

Plot logarithmic axes with matplotlib in python

First of all, it's not very tidy to mix pylab and pyplot code. What's more, pyplot style is preferred over using pylab.

Here is a slightly cleaned up code, using only pyplot functions:

from matplotlib import pyplot

a = [ pow(10,i) for i in range(10) ]

pyplot.subplot(2,1,1)
pyplot.plot(a, color='blue', lw=2)
pyplot.yscale('log')
pyplot.show()

The relevant function is pyplot.yscale(). If you use the object-oriented version, replace it by the method Axes.set_yscale(). Remember that you can also change the scale of X axis, using pyplot.xscale() (or Axes.set_xscale()).

Check my question What is the difference between ‘log’ and ‘symlog’? to see a few examples of the graph scales that matplotlib offers.

    $jsS = '{'.$arr1[0].'}';
    $data = json_decode($jsS,true);

Now ..

use $data['elemname'] to access the values.

send jsonp request with JSON Object.

Request format :

$.ajax({
    method : 'POST',
    url : 'xxx.com',
    data : JSONDataObj, //Use JSON.stringfy before sending data
    dataType: 'jsonp',
    contentType: 'application/json; charset=utf-8',

How do I remove an item from a stl vector with a certain value?

The other answers cover how to do this well, but I thought I'd also point out that it's not really odd that this isn't in the vector API: it's inefficient, linear search through the vector for the value, followed by a bunch of copying to remove it.

If you're doing this operation intensively, it can be worth considering std::set instead for this reason.

javascript: pause setTimeout();

If you're using jquery anyhow, check out the $.doTimeout plugin. This thing is a huge improvement over setTimeout, including letting you keep track of your time-outs with a single string id that you specify and that doesn't change every time you set it, and implement easy canceling, polling loops & debouncing, and more. One of my most-used jquery plugins.

Unfortunately, it doesn't support pause/resume out of the box. For this, you would need to wrap or extend $.doTimeout, presumably similarly to the accepted answer.

Passing Parameters JavaFX FXML

You can decide to use a public observable list to store public data, or just create a public setter method to store data and retrieve from the corresponding controller

Compare two objects with .equals() and == operator

Your class might implement the Comparable interface to achieve the same functionality. Your class should implement the compareTo() method declared in the interface.

public class MyClass implements Comparable<MyClass>{

    String a;

    public MyClass(String ab){
        a = ab;
    }

    // returns an int not a boolean
    public int compareTo(MyClass someMyClass){ 

        /* The String class implements a compareTo method, returning a 0 
           if the two strings are identical, instead of a boolean.
           Since 'a' is a string, it has the compareTo method which we call
           in MyClass's compareTo method.
        */

        return this.a.compareTo(someMyClass.a);

    }

    public static void main(String[] args){

        MyClass object1 = new MyClass("test");
        MyClass object2 = new MyClass("test");

        if(object1.compareTo(object2) == 0){
            System.out.println("true");
        }
        else{
            System.out.println("false");
        }
    }
}

Resize UIImage and change the size of UIImageView

       NSString *key = [[SDWebImageManager sharedManager] cacheKeyForURL:[NSURL URLWithString:@"URL STRING1"]];

       UIImage *tempImage=[self imageWithImage:[[SDImageCache sharedImageCache] imageFromDiskCacheForKey:key] scaledToWidth:cell.imgview.bounds.size.width];
       cell.imgview.image=tempImage;

   }
   else
   {
       [cell.imgview sd_setImageWithURL:[NSURL URLWithString:@"URL STRING1"] placeholderImage:nil completed:^(UIImage *image, NSError *error, SDImageCacheType cacheType, NSURL *imageURL)
        {
            UIImage *tempImage=[self imageWithImage:image scaledToWidth:cell.imgview.bounds.size.width];
            cell.imgview.image=tempImage;
//                [tableView beginUpdates];
//                [tableView endUpdates];

        }];
   }

SMTP Connect() failed. Message was not sent.Mailer error: SMTP Connect() failed

Are you running on Localhost? and have you edit the php.ini ?

If not yet, try this:
1. Open xampp->php->php.ini
2. Search for extension=php_openssl.dll
3. The initial will look like this ;extension=php_openssl.dll
4. Remove the ';' and it will look like this extension=php_openssl.dll
5. If you can't find the extension=php_openssl.dll, add this line extension=php_openssl.dll.
6. Then restart your Xampp.

Goodluck ;)

Execute SQL script from command line

You can do like this

sqlcmd -S <server Name> -U sa -P sapassword -i inputquery_file_name -o outputfile_name

From your command prompt run sqlcmd /? to get all the options you can use with sqlcmd utility

Java BigDecimal: Round to the nearest whole value

You can use setScale() to reduce the number of fractional digits to zero. Assuming value holds the value to be rounded:

BigDecimal scaled = value.setScale(0, RoundingMode.HALF_UP);
System.out.println(value + " -> " + scaled);

Using round() is a bit more involved as it requires you to specify the number of digits to be retained. In your examples this would be 3, but this is not valid for all values:

BigDecimal rounded = value.round(new MathContext(3, RoundingMode.HALF_UP));
System.out.println(value + " -> " + rounded);

(Note that BigDecimal objects are immutable; both setScale and round will return a new object.)

Custom Adapter for List View

public class ListAdapter extends ArrayAdapter<Item> {

    private int resourceLayout;
    private Context mContext;

    public ListAdapter(Context context, int resource, List<Item> items) {
        super(context, resource, items);
        this.resourceLayout = resource;
        this.mContext = context;
    }

    @Override
    public View getView(int position, View convertView, ViewGroup parent) {

        View v = convertView;

        if (v == null) {
            LayoutInflater vi;
            vi = LayoutInflater.from(mContext);
            v = vi.inflate(resourceLayout, null);
        }

        Item p = getItem(position);

        if (p != null) {
            TextView tt1 = (TextView) v.findViewById(R.id.id);
            TextView tt2 = (TextView) v.findViewById(R.id.categoryId);
            TextView tt3 = (TextView) v.findViewById(R.id.description);

            if (tt1 != null) {
                tt1.setText(p.getId());
            }

            if (tt2 != null) {
                tt2.setText(p.getCategory().getId());
            }

            if (tt3 != null) {
                tt3.setText(p.getDescription());
            }
        }

        return v;
    }

}

This is a class I had used for my project. You need to have a collection of your items which you want to display, in my case it's <Item>. You need to override View getView(int position, View convertView, ViewGroup parent) method.

R.layout.itemlistrow defines the row of the ListView.

// get data from the table by the ListAdapter
ListAdapter customAdapter = new ListAdapter(this, R.layout.itemlistrow, List<yourItem>);

yourListView .setAdapter(customAdapter);

How to use SQL Select statement with IF EXISTS sub query?

Dynamically add data to a javascript map

Well any Javascript object functions sort-of like a "map"

randomObject['hello'] = 'world';

Typically people build simple objects for the purpose:

var myMap = {};

// ...

myMap[newKey] = newValue;

edit — well the problem with having an explicit "put" function is that you'd then have to go to pains to avoid having the function itself look like part of the map. It's not really a Javascripty thing to do.

13 Feb 2014 — modern JavaScript has facilities for creating object properties that aren't enumerable, and it's pretty easy to do. However, it's still the case that a "put" property, enumerable or not, would claim the property name "put" and make it unavailable. That is, there's still only one namespace per object.

Android Saving created bitmap to directory on sd card

You can also try this.

File file = new File(strDirectoy,imgname);
OutputStream fOut = new FileOutputStream(file);
bitmap.compress(Bitmap.CompressFormat.JPEG, 85, fOut);
fOut.flush();
fOut.close();
MediaStore.Images.Media.insertImage(getContentResolver(),file.getAbsolutePath(),file.getName(),file.getName());

Check if a string within a list contains a specific string with Linq

If yoou use Contains, you could get false positives. Suppose you have a string that contains such text: "My text data Mdd LH" Using Contains method, this method will return true for call. The approach is use equals operator:

bool exists = myStringList.Any(c=>c == "Mdd LH")

Regex to extract substring, returning 2 results for some reason

Just get rid of the parenthesis and that will give you an array with one element and:

  • Change this line

var test = tesst.match(/a(.*)j/);

  • To this

var test = tesst.match(/a.*j/);

If you add parenthesis the match() function will find two match for you one for whole expression and one for the expression inside the parenthesis

  • Also according to developer.mozilla.org docs :

If you only want the first match found, you might want to use RegExp.exec() instead.

You can use the below code:

RegExp(/a.*j/).exec("afskfsd33j")

Laravel: Auth::user()->id trying to get a property of a non-object

use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Auth;

In class:

This code it`s works for me

In construct:

$this->user = User::find(Auth::user()->id);

In function:
$this->user->id;
$this->user->email;

etc..

how to display data values on Chart.js

Following this good answer, I'd use these options for a bar chart:

var chartOptions = {
    animation: false,
    responsive : true,
    tooltipTemplate: "<%= value %>",
    tooltipFillColor: "rgba(0,0,0,0)",
    tooltipFontColor: "#444",
    tooltipEvents: [],
    tooltipCaretSize: 0,
    onAnimationComplete: function()
    {
        this.showTooltip(this.datasets[0].bars, true);
    }
};

window.myBar = new Chart(ctx1).Bar(chartData, chartOptions);

Bar Chart

This still uses the tooltip system and his advantages (automatic positionning, templating, ...) but hiding the decorations (background color, caret, ...)

How to get the caret column (not pixels) position in a textarea, in characters, from the start?

If you don't have to support IE, you can use selectionStart and selectionEnd attributes of textarea.

To get caret position just use selectionStart:

function getCaretPosition(textarea) {
  return textarea.selectionStart
}

To get the strings surrounding the selection, use following code:

function getSurroundingSelection(textarea) {
  return [textarea.value.substring(0, textarea.selectionStart)
         ,textarea.value.substring(textarea.selectionStart, textarea.selectionEnd)
         ,textarea.value.substring(textarea.selectionEnd, textarea.value.length)]
}

Demo on JSFiddle.

How to see the changes between two commits without commits in-between?

you can simply pass the 2 commits to git diff like :

Reading integers from binary file in Python

The read method returns a sequence of bytes as a string. To convert from a string byte-sequence to binary data, use the built-in struct module: http://docs.python.org/library/struct.html.

import struct

print(struct.unpack('i', fin.read(4)))

Note that unpack always returns a tuple, so struct.unpack('i', fin.read(4))[0] gives the integer value that you are after.

You should probably use the format string '<i' (< is a modifier that indicates little-endian byte-order and standard size and alignment - the default is to use the platform's byte ordering, size and alignment). According to the BMP format spec, the bytes should be written in Intel/little-endian byte order.

Replace a value in a data frame based on a conditional (`if`) statement

Short answer is:

junk$nm[junk$nm %in% "B"] <- "b"

Take a look at Index vectors in R Introduction (if you don't read it yet).


EDIT. As noticed in comments this solution works for character vectors so fail on your data.

For factor best way is to change level:

levels(junk$nm)[levels(junk$nm)=="B"] <- "b"

Get timezone from DateTime

DateTime does not know its timezone offset. There is no built-in method to return the offset or the timezone name (e.g. EAT, CEST, EST etc).

Like suggested by others, you can convert your date to UTC:

DateTime localtime = new DateTime.Now;
var utctime = localtime.ToUniversalTime();

and then only calculate the difference:

TimeSpan difference = localtime - utctime;

Also you may convert one time to another by using the DateTimeOffset:

DateTimeOffset targetTime = DateTimeOffset.Now.ToOffset(new TimeSpan(5, 30, 0));

But this is sort of lossy compression - the offset alone cannot tell you which time zone it is as two different countries may be in different time zones and have the same time only for part of the year (eg. South Africa and Europe). Also, be aware that summer daylight saving time may be introduced at different dates (EST vs CET - a 3-week difference).

You can get the name of your local system time zone using TimeZoneInfo class:

TimeZoneInfo localZone = TimeZoneInfo.Local;
localZone.IsDaylightSavingTime(localtime) ? localZone.DaylightName : localZone.StandardName

I agree with Gerrie Schenck, please read the article he suggested.

How to check if an item is selected from an HTML drop down list?

Error Code 1292 - Truncated incorrect DOUBLE value - Mysql

TL; DR

This might also be caused by applying OR to string columns / literals.

Full version

I got the same error message for a simple INSERT statement involving a view:

insert into t1 select * from v1

although all the source and target columns were of type VARCHAR. After some debugging, I found the root cause; the view contained this fragment:

string_col1 OR '_' OR string_col2 OR '_' OR string_col3

which presumably was the result of an automatic conversion of the following snippet from Oracle:

string_col1 || '_' || string_col2 || '_' || string_col3

(|| is string concatenation in Oracle). The solution was to use

concat(string_col1, '_', string_col2, '_', string_col3)

instead.

How to get the type of T from a member of a generic class or method?

(note: I'm assuming that all you know is object or IList or similar, and that the list could be any type at runtime)

If you know it is a List<T>, then:

Type type = abc.GetType().GetGenericArguments()[0];

Another option is to look at the indexer:

Type type = abc.GetType().GetProperty("Item").PropertyType;

Using new TypeInfo:

using System.Reflection;
// ...
var type = abc.GetType().GetTypeInfo().GenericTypeArguments[0];

Download JSON object as a file from browser

ES6+ version for 2021; no 1MB limit either:

This is adapted from @maia's version, updated for modern Javascript with the deprecated initMouseEvent replaced by new MouseEvent() and the code generally improved:

const saveTemplateAsFile = (filename, jsonToWrite) => {
    const blob = new Blob([jsonToWrite], { type: "text/json" });
    const link = document.createElement("a");

    link.download = filename;
    link.href = window.URL.createObjectURL(blob);
    link.dataset.downloadurl = ["text/json", link.download, link.href].join(":");

    const evt = new MouseEvent("click", {
        view: window,
        bubbles: true,
        cancelable: true,
    });

    link.dispatchEvent(evt);
};

If you want to pass an object in:

const myObj = {};
const myObjAsJson = JSON.stringify(myObj);

saveTemplateAsFile(myObjAsJson);

install / uninstall APKs programmatically (PackageManager vs Intents)

API level 14 introduced two new actions: ACTION_INSTALL_PACKAGE and ACTION_UNINSTALL_PACKAGE. Those actions allow you to pass EXTRA_RETURN_RESULT boolean extra to get an (un)installation result notification.

Example code for invoking the uninstall dialog:

String app_pkg_name = "com.example.app";
int UNINSTALL_REQUEST_CODE = 1;

Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_UNINSTALL_PACKAGE);  
intent.setData(Uri.parse("package:" + app_pkg_name));  
intent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_RETURN_RESULT, true);
startActivityForResult(intent, UNINSTALL_REQUEST_CODE);

And receive the notification in your Activity#onActivityResult method:

@Override
protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
    super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);
    if (requestCode == UNINSTALL_REQUEST_CODE) {
        if (resultCode == RESULT_OK) {
            Log.d("TAG", "onActivityResult: user accepted the (un)install");
        } else if (resultCode == RESULT_CANCELED) {
            Log.d("TAG", "onActivityResult: user canceled the (un)install");
        } else if (resultCode == RESULT_FIRST_USER) {
            Log.d("TAG", "onActivityResult: failed to (un)install");
        }
    }
}

YouTube Video Embedded via iframe Ignoring z-index?

BigJacko's Javascript code worked for me, but in my case I first had to add some JQuery "noconflict" code. Here's the revised version that worked on my site:

<script type="text/javascript">
var $j = jQuery.noConflict(); 
jQuery(document).ready(function($j){
  $j('iframe').each(function() {
    var url = $j(this).attr("src");
      if ($j(this).attr("src").indexOf("?") > 0) {
        $j(this).attr({
          "src" : url + "&wmode=transparent",
          "wmode" : "Opaque"
        });
      }
      else {
        $j(this).attr({
          "src" : url + "?wmode=transparent",
           "wmode" : "Opaque"
        });
      }
   });
});
</script>

Is there a CSS selector for elements containing certain text?

You could set content as data attribute and then use attribute selectors, as shown here:

_x000D_
_x000D_
/* Select every cell containing word "male" */
td[data-content="male"] {
  color: red;
}

/* Select every cell starting on "p" case insensitive */
td[data-content^="p" i] {
  color: blue;
}

/* Select every cell containing "4" */
td[data-content*="4"] {
  color: green;
}
_x000D_
<table>
  <tr>
    <td data-content="Peter">Peter</td>
    <td data-content="male">male</td>
    <td data-content="34">34</td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td data-content="Susanne">Susanne</td>
    <td data-content="female">female</td>
    <td data-content="14">14</td>
  </tr>
</table>
_x000D_
_x000D_
_x000D_

You can also use jQuery to easily set the data-content attributes:

$(function(){
  $("td").each(function(){
    var $this = $(this);
    $this.attr("data-content", $this.text());
  });
});

Java ArrayList of Doubles

ArrayList list = new ArrayList<Double>(1.38, 2.56, 4.3);

needs to be changed to:

List<Double> list = new ArrayList<Double>();
list.add(1.38);
list.add(2.56);
list.add(4.3);

How can I pass a list as a command-line argument with argparse?

Using nargs parameter in argparse's add_argument method

I use nargs='*' as an add_argument parameter. I specifically used nargs='*' to the option to pick defaults if I am not passing any explicit arguments

Including a code snippet as example:

Example: temp_args1.py

Please Note: The below sample code is written in python3. By changing the print statement format, can run in python2

#!/usr/local/bin/python3.6

from argparse import ArgumentParser

description = 'testing for passing multiple arguments and to get list of args'
parser = ArgumentParser(description=description)
parser.add_argument('-i', '--item', action='store', dest='alist',
                    type=str, nargs='*', default=['item1', 'item2', 'item3'],
                    help="Examples: -i item1 item2, -i item3")
opts = parser.parse_args()

print("List of items: {}".format(opts.alist))

Note: I am collecting multiple string arguments that gets stored in the list - opts.alist If you want list of integers, change the type parameter on parser.add_argument to int

Execution Result:

python3.6 temp_agrs1.py -i item5 item6 item7
List of items: ['item5', 'item6', 'item7']

python3.6 temp_agrs1.py -i item10
List of items: ['item10']

python3.6 temp_agrs1.py
List of items: ['item1', 'item2', 'item3']

multiple prints on the same line in Python

You should use backspace '\r' or ('\x08') char to go back on previous position in console output

Python 2+:

import time
import sys

def backspace(n):
    sys.stdout.write((b'\x08' * n).decode()) # use \x08 char to go back   

for i in range(101):                        # for 0 to 100
    s = str(i) + '%'                        # string for output
    sys.stdout.write(s)                     # just print
    sys.stdout.flush()                      # needed for flush when using \x08
    backspace(len(s))                       # back n chars    
    time.sleep(0.2)                         # sleep for 200ms

Python 3:

import time   

def backline():        
    print('\r', end='')                     # use '\r' to go back


for i in range(101):                        # for 0 to 100
    s = str(i) + '%'                        # string for output
    print(s, end='')                        # just print and flush
    backline()                              # back to the beginning of line    
    time.sleep(0.2)                         # sleep for 200ms

This code will count from 0% to 100% on one line. Final value will be:

> python test.py
100%

Additional info about flush in this case here: Why do python print statements that contain 'end=' arguments behave differently in while-loops?

How do I get unique elements in this array?

This should work for you:

Consider Table1 has a column by the name of activity which may have the same value in more than one record. This is how you will extract ONLY the unique entries of activity field within Table1.

#An array of multiple data entries
@table1 = Table1.find(:all) 

#extracts **activity** for each entry in the array @table1, and returns only the ones which are unique

How can I generate a list or array of sequential integers in Java?

You could use Guava Ranges

You can get a SortedSet by using

ImmutableSortedSet<Integer> set = Ranges.open(1, 5).asSet(DiscreteDomains.integers());
// set contains [2, 3, 4]

How to autowire RestTemplate using annotations

Errors you'll see if a RestTemplate isn't defined

Consider defining a bean of type 'org.springframework.web.client.RestTemplate' in your configuration.

or

No qualifying bean of type [org.springframework.web.client.RestTemplate] found

How to define a RestTemplate via annotations

Depending on which technologies you're using and what versions will influence how you define a RestTemplate in your @Configuration class.

Spring >= 4 without Spring Boot

Simply define an @Bean:

@Bean
public RestTemplate restTemplate() {
    return new RestTemplate();
}

Spring Boot <= 1.3

No need to define one, Spring Boot automatically defines one for you.

Spring Boot >= 1.4

Spring Boot no longer automatically defines a RestTemplate but instead defines a RestTemplateBuilder allowing you more control over the RestTemplate that gets created. You can inject the RestTemplateBuilder as an argument in your @Bean method to create a RestTemplate:

@Bean
public RestTemplate restTemplate(RestTemplateBuilder builder) {
   // Do any additional configuration here
   return builder.build();
}

Using it in your class

@Autowired
private RestTemplate restTemplate;

or

@Inject
private RestTemplate restTemplate;

How to prevent tensorflow from allocating the totality of a GPU memory?

For TensorFlow 2.0 and 2.1 (docs):

import tensorflow as tf
tf.config.gpu.set_per_process_memory_growth(True)

For TensorFlow 2.2+ (docs):

import tensorflow as tf
gpus = tf.config.experimental.list_physical_devices('GPU')
for gpu in gpus:
  tf.config.experimental.set_memory_growth(gpu, True)

The docs also list some more methods:

  • Set environment variable TF_FORCE_GPU_ALLOW_GROWTH to true.
  • Use tf.config.experimental.set_virtual_device_configuration to set a hard limit on a Virtual GPU device.

Simple way to convert datarow array to datatable

Why not iterate through your DataRow array and add (using DataRow.ImportRow, if necessary, to get a copy of the DataRow), something like:

foreach (DataRow row in rowArray) {
   dataTable.ImportRow(row);
}

Make sure your dataTable has the same schema as the DataRows in your DataRow array.

Builder Pattern in Effective Java

This mean that you cant create enclose type. This mean that first you have to cerate a instance of "parent" class and then from this instance you can create nested class instances.

NutritionalFacts n = new NutritionalFacts()

Builder b = new n.Builder(10).carbo(23).fat(1).build();

Nested Classes

Count number of occurrences for each unique value

If i am understanding your question, would this work? (you will have to replace with your actual column and table names)

SELECT time_col, COUNT(time_col) As Count
FROM time_table
GROUP BY time_col
WHERE activity_col = 3

What is the difference between require() and library()?

You can use require() if you want to install packages if and only if necessary, such as:

if (!require(package, character.only=T, quietly=T)) {
    install.packages(package)
    library(package, character.only=T)
}

For multiple packages you can use

for (package in c('<package1>', '<package2>')) {
    if (!require(package, character.only=T, quietly=T)) {
        install.packages(package)
        library(package, character.only=T)
    }
}

Pro tips:

  • When used inside the script, you can avoid a dialog screen by specifying the repos parameter of install.packages(), such as

    install.packages(package, repos="http://cran.us.r-project.org")
    
  • You can wrap require() and library() in suppressPackageStartupMessages() to, well, suppress package startup messages, and also use the parameters require(..., quietly=T, warn.conflicts=F) if needed to keep the installs quiet.

iterating over and removing from a map

I agree with Paul Tomblin. I usually use the keyset's iterator, and then base my condition off the value for that key:

Iterator<Integer> it = map.keySet().iterator();
while(it.hasNext()) {
    Integer key = it.next();
    Object val = map.get(key);
    if (val.shouldBeRemoved()) {
        it.remove();
    }
}

Running CMD command in PowerShell

You must use the Invoke-Command cmdlet to launch this external program. Normally it works without an effort.

If you need more than one command you should use the Invoke-Expression cmdlet with the -scriptblock option.

Pair/tuple data type in Go

There is no tuple type in Go, and you are correct, the multiple values returned by functions do not represent a first-class object.

Nick's answer shows how you can do something similar that handles arbitrary types using interface{}. (I might have used an array rather than a struct to make it indexable like a tuple, but the key idea is the interface{} type)

My other answer shows how you can do something similar that avoids creating a type using anonymous structs.

These techniques have some properties of tuples, but no, they are not tuples.

Is it possible to make an HTML anchor tag not clickable/linkable using CSS?

A more un-obtrusive way (assuming you use jQuery):

HTML:

<a id="my-link" href="page.html">page link</a>

Javascript:

$('#my-link').click(function(e)
{
    e.preventDefault();
});

The advantage of this is the clean separation between logic and presentation. If one day you decide that this link would do something else, you don't have to mess with the markup, just the JS.

Get MAC address using shell script

On a modern GNU/Linux system you can see the available network interfaces listing the content of /sys/class/net/, for example:

$ ls /sys/class/net/
enp0s25  lo  virbr0  virbr0-nic  wlp2s0

You can check if an interface is up looking at operstate in the device directory. For example, here's how you can see if enp0s25 is up:

$ cat /sys/class/net/enp0s25/operstate
up

You can then get the MAC address of that interface with:

$ cat /sys/class/net/enp0s25/address 
ff:00:ff:e9:84:a5

For example, here's a simple bash script that prints MAC addresses for active interfaces:

#!/bin/bash
# getmacifup.sh: Print active NICs MAC addresses
D='/sys/class/net'
for nic in $( ls $D )
do
    echo $nic
    if  grep -q up $D/$nic/operstate
    then
        echo -n '   '
        cat $D/$nic/address
    fi
done

And here's its output on a system with an ethernet and a wifi interface:

$ ./getmacifup.sh
enp0s25
   ff:00:ff:e9:84:a5
lo
wlp2s0

For details see the Kernel documentation


Remember also that from 2015 most GNU/Linux distributions switched to systemd, and don't use ethX interface naming scheme any more - now they use a more robust naming convention based on the hardware topology, see:

Centering controls within a form in .NET (Winforms)?

You could achieve this with the use of anchors. Or more precisely the non use of them.

Controls are anchored by default to the top left of the form which means when the form size will be changed, their distance from the top left side of the form will remain constant. If you change the control anchor to bottom left, then the control will keep the same distance from the bottom and left sides of the form when the form if resized.

Turning off the anchor in a direction will keep the control centered in that direction when resizing.

NOTE: Turning off anchoring via the properties window in VS2015 may require entering None, None (instead of default Top,Left)

Install an apk file from command prompt?

I use this script on my windows machine ( insall all apks in current folder to all available devices )

  $device_id = $array_lines[$_].Split([char]0x9)[0]
  $List_Device_Ids+=$device_id
  $device_id
}

Write-Host "Found devices "$List_Device_Ids.Length

Java finished with non-zero exit value 2 - Android Gradle

This issue is quite possibly due to exceeding the 65K methods dex limit imposed by Android. This problem can be solved either by cleaning the project, and removing some unused libraries and methods from dependencies in build.gradle, OR by adding multidex support.

So, If you have to keep libraries and methods, then you can enable multi dex support by declaring it in the gradle config.

defaultConfig {        
    // Enabling multidex support.
    multiDexEnabled true
}

You can read more about multidex support and developing apps with more than 65K methods here.

jquery: get elements by class name and add css to each of them

What makes jQuery easy to use is that you don't have to apply attributes to each element. The jQuery object contains an array of elements, and the methods of the jQuery object applies the same attributes to all the elements in the array.

There is also a shorter form for $(document).ready(function(){...}) in $(function(){...}).

So, this is all you need:

$(function(){
  $('div.easy_editor').css('border','9px solid red');
});

If you want the code to work for any element with that class, you can just specify the class in the selector without the tag name:

$(function(){
  $('.easy_editor').css('border','9px solid red');
});

How to retrieve unique count of a field using Kibana + Elastic Search

For Kibana 4 go to this answer

This is easy to do with a terms panel:

Adding a terms panel to Kibana

If you want to select the count of distinct IP that are in your logs, you should specify in the field clientip, you should put a big enough number in length (otherwise, it will join different IP under the same group) and specify in the style table. After adding the panel, you will have a table with IP, and the count of that IP:

Table with IP and count

Make a div fill the height of the remaining screen space

If the only issue is height, just using divs seems to work:

<div id="header">header content</div>
<div id="content" style="height:100%">content content</div>

In a simple test, the width of header/content is different in your example and mine, but I'm not sure from your post if you're concerned about the width?

Email and phone Number Validation in android

For Email Address Validation

private boolean isValidMail(String email) {

    String EMAIL_STRING = "^[_A-Za-z0-9-\\+]+(\\.[_A-Za-z0-9-]+)*@"
            + "[A-Za-z0-9-]+(\\.[A-Za-z0-9]+)*(\\.[A-Za-z]{2,})$";

    return Pattern.compile(EMAIL_STRING).matcher(email).matches();

}

OR

private boolean isValidMail(String email) {
   return android.util.Patterns.EMAIL_ADDRESS.matcher(email).matches();
}

For Mobile Validation

For Valid Mobile You need to consider 7 digit to 13 digit because some country have 7 digit mobile number. If your main target is your own country then you can match with the length. Assuming India has 10 digit mobile number. Also we can not check like mobile number must starts with 9 or 8 or anything.

For mobile number I used this two Function:

private boolean isValidMobile(String phone) {
    if(!Pattern.matches("[a-zA-Z]+", phone)) {
        return phone.length() > 6 && phone.length() <= 13;
    }
    return false;
}

OR

private boolean isValidMobile(String phone) {
    return android.util.Patterns.PHONE.matcher(phone).matches();    
}

Why does this CSS margin-top style not work?

If you add any padding to #outer, it works.

Demo

#outer {
    width:500px;

    margin:50px auto 0 auto;
    display:block;
    padding-top:1px;
}

Is it ok having both Anacondas 2.7 and 3.5 installed in the same time?

Anaconda is made for the purpose you are asking. It is also an environment manager. It separates out environments. It was made because stable and legacy packages were not supported with newer/unstable versions of host languages; therefore a software was required that could separate and manage these versions on the same machine without the need to reinstall or uninstall individual host programming languages/environments.

You can find creation/deletion of environments in the Anaconda documentation.

Hope this helped.

ggplot2 line chart gives "geom_path: Each group consist of only one observation. Do you need to adjust the group aesthetic?"

I had similar problem with the data frame:

group time weight.loss
1 Control  wl1    4.500000
2    Diet  wl1    5.333333
3  DietEx  wl1    6.200000
4 Control  wl2    3.333333
5    Diet  wl2    3.916667
6  DietEx  wl2    6.100000
7 Control  wl3    2.083333
8    Diet  wl3    2.250000
9  DietEx  wl3    2.200000

I think the variable for x axis should be numeric, so that geom_line knows how to connect the points to draw the line.

after I change the 2nd column to numeric:

 group time weight.loss
1 Control    1    4.500000
2    Diet    1    5.333333
3  DietEx    1    6.200000
4 Control    2    3.333333
5    Diet    2    3.916667
6  DietEx    2    6.100000
7 Control    3    2.083333
8    Diet    3    2.250000
9  DietEx    3    2.200000

then it works.

Finding absolute value of a number without using Math.abs()

Although this shouldn't be a bottle neck as branching issues on modern processors isn't normally a problem, but in the case of integers you could go for a branch-less solution as outlined here: http://graphics.stanford.edu/~seander/bithacks.html#IntegerAbs.

(x + (x >> 31)) ^ (x >> 31);

This does fail in the obvious case of Integer.MIN_VALUE however, so this is a use at your own risk solution.

Hash table in JavaScript

Using the function above, you would do:

var myHash = new Hash('one',[1,10,5],'two', [2], 'three',[3,30,300]);

Of course, the following would also work:

var myHash = {}; // New object
myHash['one'] = [1,10,5];
myHash['two'] = [2];
myHash['three'] = [3, 30, 300];

since all objects in JavaScript are hash tables! It would, however, be harder to iterate over since using foreach(var item in object) would also get you all its functions, etc., but that might be enough depending on your needs.

Binding arrow keys in JS/jQuery

document.onkeydown = function(e) {
    switch(e.which) {
        case 37: // left
        break;

        case 38: // up
        break;

        case 39: // right
        break;

        case 40: // down
        break;

        default: return; // exit this handler for other keys
    }
    e.preventDefault(); // prevent the default action (scroll / move caret)
};

If you need to support IE8, start the function body as e = e || window.event; switch(e.which || e.keyCode) {.


(edit 2020)
Note that KeyboardEvent.which is now deprecated. See this example using KeyboardEvent.key for a more modern solution to detect arrow keys.

Add line break within tooltips

Regular Expression: Allow letters, numbers, and spaces (with at least one letter or number)

You simply need to specify your current RE, followed by a letter/number followed by your current RE again:

^[A-Z0-9 _]*[A-Z0-9][A-Z0-9 _]*$

Since you've now stated they're Javascript REs, there's a useful site here where you can test the RE against input data.

If you want lowercase letters as well:

^[A-Za-z0-9 _]*[A-Za-z0-9][A-Za-z0-9 _]*$

How to make an ImageView with rounded corners?

Why not do clipping in draw()?

Here is my solution:

  • Extend RelativeLayout with clipping
  • Put ImageView (or other views) into the layout:

Code:

public class RoundRelativeLayout extends RelativeLayout {

    private final float radius;

    public RoundRelativeLayout(Context context, AttributeSet attrs) {
        super(context, attrs);

        TypedArray attrArray = context.obtainStyledAttributes(attrs,
                R.styleable.RoundRelativeLayout);
        radius = attrArray.getDimension(
                R.styleable.RoundRelativeLayout_radius, 0);
    }

    private boolean isPathValid;
    private final Path path = new Path();

    private Path getRoundRectPath() {
        if (isPathValid) {
            return path;
        }

        path.reset();

        int width = getWidth();
        int height = getHeight();
        RectF bounds = new RectF(0, 0, width, height);

        path.addRoundRect(bounds, radius, radius, Direction.CCW);
        isPathValid = true;
        return path;
    }

    @Override
    protected void dispatchDraw(Canvas canvas) {
        canvas.clipPath(getRoundRectPath());
        super.dispatchDraw(canvas);
    }

    @Override
    public void draw(Canvas canvas) {
        canvas.clipPath(getRoundRectPath());
        super.draw(canvas);
    }

    @Override
    protected void onMeasure(int widthMeasureSpec, int heightMeasureSpec) {

        int oldWidth = getMeasuredWidth();
        int oldHeight = getMeasuredHeight();
        super.onMeasure(widthMeasureSpec, heightMeasureSpec);

        int newWidth = getMeasuredWidth();
        int newHeight = getMeasuredHeight();
        if (newWidth != oldWidth || newHeight != oldHeight) {
            isPathValid = false;
        }
    }

}

Can't subtract offset-naive and offset-aware datetimes

I know this is old, but just thought I would add my solution just in case someone finds it useful.

I wanted to compare the local naive datetime with an aware datetime from a timeserver. I basically created a new naive datetime object using the aware datetime object. It's a bit of a hack and doesn't look very pretty but gets the job done.

import ntplib
import datetime
from datetime import timezone

def utc_to_local(utc_dt):
    return utc_dt.replace(tzinfo=timezone.utc).astimezone(tz=None)    

try:
    ntpt = ntplib.NTPClient()
    response = ntpt.request('pool.ntp.org')
    date = utc_to_local(datetime.datetime.utcfromtimestamp(response.tx_time))
    sysdate = datetime.datetime.now()

...here comes the fudge...

    temp_date = datetime.datetime(int(str(date)[:4]),int(str(date)[5:7]),int(str(date)[8:10]),int(str(date)[11:13]),int(str(date)[14:16]),int(str(date)[17:19]))
    dt_delta = temp_date-sysdate
except Exception:
    print('Something went wrong :-(')

Android adding simple animations while setvisibility(view.Gone)

Please check this link. Which will allow animations like L2R, R2L, T2B, B2T animations.

This code shows animation from left to right

TranslateAnimation animate = new TranslateAnimation(0,view.getWidth(),0,0);
animate.setDuration(500);
animate.setFillAfter(true);
view.startAnimation(animate);
view.setVisibility(View.GONE);

if you want to do it from R2L then use

TranslateAnimation animate = new TranslateAnimation(0,-view.getWidth(),0,0);

for top to bottom as

TranslateAnimation animate = new TranslateAnimation(0,0,0,view.getHeight());

and vice a versa..

Bootstrap number validation

You should use jquery validation because if you use type="number" then you can also enter "E" character in input type, which is not correct.

Solution:

HTML

JQuery

//integer value validation
$('input.floatNumber').on('input', function() {
    this.value = this.value.replace(/[^0-9.]/g,'').replace(/(\..*)\./g, '$1');
});

CRON job to run on the last day of the month

There's a slightly shorter method that can be used similar to one of the ones above. That is:

Also, the crontab entry could be update to only check on the 28th to 31st as it's pointless running it the other days of the month. Which would give you:

Javascript Image Resize

To modify an image proportionally, simply only alter one of the width/height css properties, leave the other set to auto.

image.style.width = '50%'
image.style.height = 'auto'

This will ensure that its aspect ratio remains the same.

Bear in mind that browsers tend to suck at resizing images nicely - you'll probably find that your resized image looks horrible.

Convert Decimal to Varchar

Hope this will help you

Cast(columnName as Numeric(10,2)) 
        or

Cast(@s as decimal(10,2))

I am not getting why you want to cast to varchar?.If you cast to varchar again convert back to decimail for two decimal points

How to convert integer timestamp to Python datetime

datetime.datetime.fromtimestamp() is correct, except you are probably having timestamp in miliseconds (like in JavaScript), but fromtimestamp() expects Unix timestamp, in seconds.

Do it like that:

>>> import datetime
>>> your_timestamp = 1331856000000
>>> date = datetime.datetime.fromtimestamp(your_timestamp / 1e3)

and the result is:

>>> date
datetime.datetime(2012, 3, 16, 1, 0)

Does it answer your question?

EDIT: J.F. Sebastian correctly suggested to use true division by 1e3 (float 1000). The difference is significant, if you would like to get precise results, thus I changed my answer. The difference results from the default behaviour of Python 2.x, which always returns int when dividing (using / operator) int by int (this is called floor division). By replacing the divisor 1000 (being an int) with the 1e3 divisor (being representation of 1000 as float) or with float(1000) (or 1000. etc.), the division becomes true division. Python 2.x returns float when dividing int by float, float by int, float by float etc. And when there is some fractional part in the timestamp passed to fromtimestamp() method, this method's result also contains information about that fractional part (as the number of microseconds).

C# Syntax - Split String into Array by Comma, Convert To Generic List, and Reverse Order

What your missing here is that .Reverse() is a void method. It's not possible to assign the result of .Reverse() to a variable. You can however alter the order to use Enumerable.Reverse() and get your result

var x = "Tom,Scott,Bob".Split(',').Reverse().ToList<string>()

The difference is that Enumerable.Reverse() returns an IEnumerable<T> instead of being void return

Can I use tcpdump to get HTTP requests, response header and response body?

Here is another choice: Chaosreader

So I need to debug an application which posts xml to a 3rd party application. I found a brilliant little perl script which does all the hard work – you just chuck it a tcpdump output file, and it does all the manipulation and outputs everything you need...

The script is called chaosreader0.94. See http://www.darknet.org.uk/2007/11/chaosreader-trace-tcpudp-sessions-from-tcpdump/

It worked like a treat, I did the following:

tcpdump host www.blah.com -s 9000 -w outputfile; perl chaosreader0.94 outputfile

Parse v. TryParse

TryParse does not return the value, it returns a status code to indicate whether the parse succeeded (and doesn't throw an exception).

SQL Server String Concatenation with Null

In Sql Server:

insert into Table_Name(PersonName,PersonEmail) values(NULL,'[email protected]')

PersonName is varchar(50), NULL is not a string, because we are not passing with in single codes, so it treat as NULL.

Code Behind:

string name = (txtName.Text=="")? NULL : "'"+ txtName.Text +"'";
string email = txtEmail.Text;

insert into Table_Name(PersonName,PersonEmail) values(name,'"+email+"')

Form inline inside a form horizontal in twitter bootstrap?

I know this is an old answer but here is what I usually do:

CSS:

.form-control-inline {
   width: auto;
   float:left;
   margin-right: 5px;
}

Then wrap the fields you want to be inlined in a div and add .form-control-inline to the input, example:

HTML

<label class="control-label">Date of birth:</label>
<div>
<select class="form-control form-control-inline" name="year"> ... </select>
<select class="form-control form-control-inline" name="month"> ... </select>
<select class="form-control form-control-inline" name="day"> ... </select>
</div>

How to show the "Are you sure you want to navigate away from this page?" when changes committed?

here is my html

<!DOCTYPE HMTL>
<meta charset="UTF-8">
<html>
<head>
<title>Home</title>
<script type="text/javascript" src="script.js"></script>
</head>

 <body onload="myFunction()">
    <h1 id="belong">
        Welcome To My Home
    </h1>
    <p>
        <a id="replaceME" onclick="myFunction2(event)" href="https://www.ccis.edu">I am a student at Columbia College of Missouri.</a>
    </p>
</body>

And so this is how I did something similar in javaScript

var myGlobalNameHolder ="";

function myFunction(){
var myString = prompt("Enter a name", "Name Goes Here");
    myGlobalNameHolder = myString;
    if (myString != null) {
        document.getElementById("replaceME").innerHTML =
        "Hello " + myString + ". Welcome to my site";

        document.getElementById("belong").innerHTML =
        "A place you belong";
    }   
}

// create a function to pass our event too
function myFunction2(event) {   
// variable to make our event short and sweet
var x=window.onbeforeunload;
// logic to make the confirm and alert boxes
if (confirm("Are you sure you want to leave my page?") == true) {
    x = alert("Thank you " + myGlobalNameHolder + " for visiting!");
}
}

What is the purpose of "pip install --user ..."?

Best way to is install virtualenv and not require the --user confusion. You will get more flexibility and not worry about clobbering the different python versions and projects everytime you pip install a package.

How to present popover properly in iOS 8

Actually it is much simpler than that. In the storyboard you should make the viewcontroller you want to use as popover and make a viewcontroller class for it as usual. Make a segue as shown below from the object you want to open the popover, in this case the UIBarButton named "Config".

enter image description here

In the "mother viewcontroller" implement the UIPopoverPresentationControllerDelegate and the delegate method:

func popoverPresentationControllerDidDismissPopover(popoverPresentationController: UIPopoverPresentationController) {
    //do som stuff from the popover
}

Override the prepareForSeque method like this:

override func prepare(for segue: UIStoryboardSegue, sender: Any?) {
     //segue for the popover configuration window
    if segue.identifier == "yourSegueIdentifierForPopOver" {
        if let controller = segue.destinationViewController as? UIViewController {
            controller.popoverPresentationController!.delegate = self
            controller.preferredContentSize = CGSize(width: 320, height: 186)
        }
    }
}

And you're done. And you can now treat the popover view as any other view, ie. add fields and what not! And you get hold of the the content controller by using the popoverPresentationController.presentedViewController method in the UIPopoverPresentationController.

Also on an iPhone you would have to overwrite

func adaptivePresentationStyle(for controller: UIPresentationController) -> UIModalPresentationStyle {

        return UIModalPresentationStyle.none
    }

These syntax works with MS SQL Server 2008 R2 Express Edition.

Android: how to make an activity return results to the activity which calls it?

UPDATE Feb. 2021

As in Activity v1.2.0 and Fragment v1.3.0, the new Activity Result APIs have been introduced.

The Activity Result APIs provide components for registering for a result, launching the result, and handling the result once it is dispatched by the system.

So there is no need of using startActivityForResult and onActivityResult anymore.

In order to use the new API, you need to create an ActivityResultLauncher in your origin Activity, specifying the callback that will be run when the destination Activity finishes and returns the desired data:

private val intentLauncher =
    registerForActivityResult(ActivityResultContracts.StartActivityForResult()) { result ->

        if (result.resultCode == Activity.RESULT_OK) {
            result.data?.getStringExtra("streetkey")
            result.data?.getStringExtra("citykey")
            result.data?.getStringExtra("homekey")
        }
    }

and then, launching your intent whenever you need to:

intentLauncher.launch(Intent(this, YourActivity::class.java))

And to return data from the destination Activity, you just have to add an intent with the values to return to the setResult() method:

val data = Intent()
data.putExtra("streetkey", "streetname")
data.putExtra("citykey", "cityname")
data.putExtra("homekey", "homename")

setResult(Activity.RESULT_OK, data)
finish()

For any additional information, please refer to Android Documentation

How to coerce a list object to type 'double'

If your list as multiple elements that need to be converted to numeric, you can achieve this with lapply(a, as.numeric).

TypeError : Unhashable type

... and so you should do something like this:

set(tuple ((a,b) for a in range(3)) for b in range(3))

... and if needed convert back to list

Angular Material: mat-select not selecting default

I'm using Angular 5 and reactive forms with mat-select and couldn't get either of the above solutions to display the initial value.

I had to add [compareWith] to deal with the different types being used within the mat-select component. Internally, it appears mat-select uses an array to hold the selected value. This is likely to allow the same code to work with multiple selections if that mode is turned on.

Angular Select Control Doc

Here's my solution:

Form Builder to initialize the form control:

this.formGroup = this.fb.group({
    country: new FormControl([ this.myRecord.country.id ] ),
    ...
});

Then implement the compareWith function on your component:

compareIds(id1: any, id2: any): boolean {
    const a1 = determineId(id1);
    const a2 = determineId(id2);
    return a1 === a2;
}

Next create and export the determineId function (I had to create a standalone function so mat-select could use it):

export function determineId(id: any): string {
    if (id.constructor.name === 'array' && id.length > 0) {
       return '' + id[0];
    }
    return '' + id;
}

Finally add the compareWith attribute to your mat-select:

<mat-form-field hintLabel="select one">
<mat-select placeholder="Country" formControlName="country" 
    [compareWith]="compareIds">

    <mat-option>None</mat-option>
    <mat-option *ngFor="let country of countries" [value]="country.id">
                        {{ country.name }}
    </mat-option>
</mat-select>
</mat-form-field>

How to capture Enter key press?

You need to create a handler for the onkeypress action.

HTML

<input name="keywords" type="text" id="keywords" size="50" onkeypress="handleEnter(this, event)" />

JS

function handleEnter(inField, e)
{
    var charCode;

    //Get key code (support for all browsers)
    if(e && e.which)
    {
        charCode = e.which;
    }
    else if(window.event)
    {
        e = window.event;
        charCode = e.keyCode;
    }

    if(charCode == 13)
    {
       //Call your submit function
    }
}

Creating a BLOB from a Base64 string in JavaScript

Following is my TypeScript code which can be converted easily into JavaScript and you can use

/**
 * Convert BASE64 to BLOB
 * @param base64Image Pass Base64 image data to convert into the BLOB
 */
private convertBase64ToBlob(base64Image: string) {
  // Split into two parts
  const parts = base64Image.split(';base64,');

  // Hold the content type
  const imageType = parts[0].split(':')[1];

  // Decode Base64 string
  const decodedData = window.atob(parts[1]);

  // Create UNIT8ARRAY of size same as row data length
  const uInt8Array = new Uint8Array(decodedData.length);

  // Insert all character code into uInt8Array
  for (let i = 0; i < decodedData.length; ++i) {
    uInt8Array[i] = decodedData.charCodeAt(i);
  }

  // Return BLOB image after conversion
  return new Blob([uInt8Array], { type: imageType });
}

Is there a JavaScript strcmp()?

How about:

String.prototype.strcmp = function(s) {

}

Then, to compare s1 with 2:

s1.strcmp(s2)

How to overlay one div over another div

The new Grid CSS specification provides a far more elegant solution. Using position: absolute may lead to overlaps or scaling issues while Grid will save you from dirty CSS hacks.

Most minimal Grid Overlay example:

HTML

<div class="container">
  <div class="content">This is the content</div>
  <div class="overlay">Overlay - must be placed under content in the HTML</div>
</div>

CSS

.container {
  display: grid;
}

.content, .overlay {
  grid-area: 1 / 1;
}

That's it. If you don't build for Internet Explorer, your code will most probably work.

Is it necessary to use # for creating temp tables in SQL server?

Yes. You need to prefix the table name with "#" (hash) to create temporary tables.

If you do NOT need the table later, go ahead & create it. Temporary Tables are very much like normal tables. However, it gets created in tempdb. Also, it is only accessible via the current session i.e. For EG: if another user tries to access the temp table created by you, he'll not be able to do so.

"##" (double-hash creates "Global" temp table that can be accessed by other sessions as well.

Refer the below link for the Basics of Temporary Tables: http://www.codeproject.com/Articles/42553/Quick-Overview-Temporary-Tables-in-SQL-Server-2005

If the content of your table is less than 5000 rows & does NOT contain data types such as nvarchar(MAX), varbinary(MAX), consider using Table Variables.

They are the fastest as they are just like any other variables which are stored in the RAM. They are stored in tempdb as well, not in RAM.

DECLARE @ItemBack1 TABLE
(
 column1 int,
 column2 int,
 someInt int,
 someVarChar nvarchar(50)
);

INSERT INTO @ItemBack1
SELECT column1, 
       column2, 
       someInt, 
       someVarChar 
  FROM table2
 WHERE table2.ID = 7;

More Info on Table Variables: http://odetocode.com/articles/365.aspx

How to Deserialize JSON data?

Step 1: Go to json.org to find the JSON library for whatever technology you're using to call this web service. Download and link to that library.

Step 2: Let's say you're using Java. You would use JSONArray like this:

JSONArray myArray=new JSONArray(queryResponse);
for (int i=0;i<myArray.length;i++){
    JSONArray myInteriorArray=myArray.getJSONArray(i);
    if (i==0) {
        //this is the first one and is special because it holds the name of the query.
    }else{
        //do your stuff
        String stateCode=myInteriorArray.getString(0);
        String stateName=myInteriorArray.getString(1);
    }
}

Assigning variables with dynamic names in Java

You should use List or array instead

List<Integer> list = new ArrayList<Integer>();
list.add(1);
list.add(2);
list.add(3);

Or

int[] arr  = new int[10];
arr[0]=1;
arr[1]=2;

Or even better

Map<String, Integer> map = new HashMap<String, Integer>();
map.put("n1", 1);
map.put("n2", 2);

//conditionally get 
map.get("n1");

Python: how to capture image from webcam on click using OpenCV

Breaking down your code example (Explanations are under the line of code.)

import cv2

imports openCV for usage

camera = cv2.VideoCapture(0)

creates an object called camera, of type openCV video capture, using the first camera in the list of cameras connected to the computer.

for i in range(10):

tells the program to loop the following indented code 10 times

    return_value, image = camera.read()

read values from the camera object, using it's read method. it resonds with 2 values save the 2 data values into two temporary variables called "return_value" and "image"

    cv2.imwrite('opencv'+str(i)+'.png', image)

use the openCV method imwrite (that writes an image to a disk) and write an image using the data in the temporary data variable

fewer indents means that the loop has now ended...

del(camera)

deletes the camrea object, we no longer needs it.

you can what you request in many ways, one could be to replace the for loop with a while loop, (running forever, instead of 10 times), and then wait for a keypress (like answered by danidee while I was typing)

or create a much more evil service that hides in the background and captures an image everytime someone presses the keyboard...

Left-pad printf with spaces

}

How to get object size in memory?

The following code fragment should return the size in bytes of any object passed to it, so long as it can be serialized. I got this from a colleague at Quixant to resolve a problem of writing to SRAM on a gaming platform. Hope it helps out. Credit and thanks to Carlo Vittuci.

/// <summary>
/// Calculates the lenght in bytes of an object 
/// and returns the size 
/// </summary>
/// <param name="TestObject"></param>
/// <returns></returns>
private int GetObjectSize(object TestObject)
{
    BinaryFormatter bf = new BinaryFormatter();
    MemoryStream ms = new MemoryStream();
    byte[] Array;
    bf.Serialize(ms, TestObject);
    Array = ms.ToArray();
    return Array.Length;
}

Job for httpd.service failed because the control process exited with error code. See "systemctl status httpd.service" and "journalctl -xe" for details

From your output:

no listening sockets available, shutting down

what basically means, that any port in which one apache is going to be listening is already being used by another application.

netstat -punta | grep LISTEN

Will give you a list of all the ports being used and the information needed to recognize which process is so you can kill stop or do whatever you want to do with it.

After doing a nmap of your ip I can see that

80/tcp    open     http

so I guess you sorted it out.

How to use onSavedInstanceState example please

The Bundle is a container for all the information you want to save. You use the put* functions to insert data into it. Here's a short list (there are more) of put functions you can use to store data in the Bundle.

putString
putBoolean
putByte
putChar
putFloat
putLong
putShort
putParcelable (used for objects but they must implement Parcelable)

In your onCreate function, this Bundle is handed back to the program. The best way to check if the application is being reloaded, or started for the first time is:

if (savedInstanceState != null) {
    // Then the application is being reloaded
}

To get the data back out, use the get* functions just like the put* functions. The data is stored as a name-value pair. This is like a hashmap. You provide a key and the value, then when you want the value back, you give the key and the function gets the value. Here's a short example.

@Override
public void onSaveInstanceState(Bundle outState) {
   outState.putString("message", "This is my message to be reloaded");
   super.onSaveInstanceState(outState);
}

@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    if (savedInstanceState != null) {
        String message = savedInstanceState.getString("message");
        Toast.makeText(this, message, Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
    }
}

Your saved message will be toasted to the screen. Hope this helps.

How to enable zoom controls and pinch zoom in a WebView?

To enable zoom controls in a WebView, add the following line:

webView.getSettings().setBuiltInZoomControls(true);

With this line of code, you get the zoom enabled in your WebView, if you want to remove the zoom in and zoom out buttons provided, add the following line of code:

webView.getSettings().setDisplayZoomControls(false);

Insert Unicode character into JavaScript

I'm guessing that you actually want Omega to be a string containing an uppercase omega? In that case, you can write:

var Omega = '\u03A9';

(Because Ω is the Unicode character with codepoint U+03A9; that is, 03A9 is 937, except written as four hexadecimal digits.)

Top 1 with a left join

Because the TOP 1 from the ordered sub-query does not have profile_id = 'u162231993' Remove where u.id = 'u162231993' and see results then.

Run the sub-query separately to understand what's going on.

What's the difference between implementation and compile in Gradle?

Gradle 3.0 introduced next changes:

  • compile -> api

    api keyword is the same as deprecated compile which expose this dependency for all levels

  • compile -> implementation

    Is preferable way because has some advantages. implementation expose dependency only for one level up at build time (the dependency is available at runtime). As a result you have a faster build(no need to recompile consumers which are higher then 1 level up)

  • provided -> compileOnly

    This dependency is available only in compile time(the dependency is not available at runtime). This dependency can not be transitive and be .aar. It can be used with compile time annotation processor and allows you to reduce a final output file

  • compile -> annotationProcessor

    Very similar to compileOnly but also guarantees that transitive dependency are not visible for consumer

  • apk -> runtimeOnly

    Dependency is not available in compile time but available at runtime.

Node.js - get raw request body using Express

Edit 2: Release 1.15.2 of the body parser module introduces raw mode, which returns the body as a Buffer. By default, it also automatically handles deflate and gzip decompression. Example usage:

var bodyParser = require('body-parser');
app.use(bodyParser.raw(options));

app.get(path, function(req, res) {
  // req.body is a Buffer object
});

By default, the options object has the following default options:

var options = {
  inflate: true,
  limit: '100kb',
  type: 'application/octet-stream'
};

If you want your raw parser to parse other MIME types other than application/octet-stream, you will need to change it here. It will also support wildcard matching such as */* or */application.


Note: The following answer is for versions before Express 4, where middleware was still bundled with the framework. The modern equivalent is the body-parser module, which must be installed separately.

The rawBody property in Express was once available, but removed since version 1.5.1. To get the raw request body, you have to put in some middleware before using the bodyParser. You can also read a GitHub discussion about it here.

app.use(function(req, res, next) {
  req.rawBody = '';
  req.setEncoding('utf8');

  req.on('data', function(chunk) { 
    req.rawBody += chunk;
  });

  req.on('end', function() {
    next();
  });
});
app.use(express.bodyParser());

That middleware will read from the actual data stream, and store it in the rawBody property of the request. You can then access the raw body like this:

app.post('/', function(req, res) {
  // do something with req.rawBody
  // use req.body for the parsed body
});

Edit: It seems that this method and bodyParser refuse to coexist, because one will consume the request stream before the other, leading to whichever one is second to never fire end, thus never calling next(), and hanging your application.

The simplest solution would most likely be to modify the source of bodyParser, which you would find on line 57 of Connect's JSON parser. This is what the modified version would look like.

var buf = '';
req.setEncoding('utf8');
req.on('data', function(chunk){ buf += chunk });
req.on('end', function() {
  req.rawBody = buf;
  var first = buf.trim()[0];
  ...
});

You would find the file at this location:

/node_modules/express/node_modules/connect/lib/middleware/json.js.

json.decoder.JSONDecodeError: Extra data: line 2 column 1 (char 190)

You have two records in your json file, and json.loads() is not able to decode more than one. You need to do it record by record.

See Python json.loads shows ValueError: Extra data

OR you need to reformat your json to contain an array:

{
    "foo" : [
       {"name": "XYZ", "address": "54.7168,94.0215", "country_of_residence": "PQR", "countries": "LMN;PQRST", "date": "28-AUG-2008", "type": null},
       {"name": "OLMS", "address": null, "country_of_residence": null, "countries": "Not identified;No", "date": "23-FEB-2017", "type": null}
    ]
}

would be acceptable again. But there cannot be several top level objects.

Start a fragment via Intent within a Fragment

Try this it may help you:

public void ButtonClick(View view) {
    Fragment mFragment = new YourNextFragment(); 
    getSupportFragmentManager().beginTransaction().replace(R.id.content_frame, mFragment).commit();
}

Appending HTML string to the DOM

Why is that not acceptable?

document.getElementById('test').innerHTML += str

would be the textbook way of doing it.

How do I add BundleConfig.cs to my project?

BundleConfig is nothing more than bundle configuration moved to separate file. It used to be part of app startup code (filters, bundles, routes used to be configured in one class)

To add this file, first you need to add the Microsoft.AspNet.Web.Optimization nuget package to your web project:

Install-Package Microsoft.AspNet.Web.Optimization

Then under the App_Start folder create a new cs file called BundleConfig.cs. Here is what I have in my mine (ASP.NET MVC 5, but it should work with MVC 4):

using System.Web;
using System.Web.Optimization;

namespace CodeRepository.Web
{
    public class BundleConfig
    {
        // For more information on bundling, visit http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=301862
        public static void RegisterBundles(BundleCollection bundles)
        {
            bundles.Add(new ScriptBundle("~/bundles/jquery").Include(
                        "~/Scripts/jquery-{version}.js"));

            bundles.Add(new ScriptBundle("~/bundles/jqueryval").Include(
                        "~/Scripts/jquery.validate*"));

            // Use the development version of Modernizr to develop with and learn from. Then, when you're
            // ready for production, use the build tool at http://modernizr.com to pick only the tests you need.
            bundles.Add(new ScriptBundle("~/bundles/modernizr").Include(
                        "~/Scripts/modernizr-*"));

            bundles.Add(new ScriptBundle("~/bundles/bootstrap").Include(
                      "~/Scripts/bootstrap.js",
                      "~/Scripts/respond.js"));

            bundles.Add(new StyleBundle("~/Content/css").Include(
                      "~/Content/bootstrap.css",
                      "~/Content/site.css"));
        }
    }
}

Then modify your Global.asax and add a call to RegisterBundles() in Application_Start():

using System.Web.Optimization;

protected void Application_Start()
{
    AreaRegistration.RegisterAllAreas();
    RouteConfig.RegisterRoutes(RouteTable.Routes);
    BundleConfig.RegisterBundles(BundleTable.Bundles);
}

Declare a variable as Decimal

You can't declare a variable as Decimal - you have to use Variant (you can use CDec to populate it with a Decimal type though).

Xampp-mysql - "Table doesn't exist in engine" #1932

I had the same issue. I had a backup of my C:\xampp\mysql\data folder. But integrating it with the newly installed xampp had issues. So I located the C:\xampp\mysql\bin\my.ini file and directed innodb_data_home_dir = "C:/xampp/mysql/data" to my backed-up data folder and it worked flawlessly.

Use of exit() function

Try man exit.


Oh, and:

#include <stdlib.h>

int main(void) {
  /*  ...  */
  if (error_occured) {
    return (EXIT_FAILURE);
  }
  /*  ...  */
  return (EXIT_SUCCESS);
}

Substring a string from the end of the string

You can do:

string str = "Hello Marco !";
str = str.Substring(0, str.Length - 2);

How to set recurring schedule for xlsm file using Windows Task Scheduler

I referred a blog by Kim for doing this and its working fine for me. See the blog

The automated execution of macro can be accomplished with the help of a VB Script file which is being invoked by Windows Task Scheduler at specified times.

Remember to replace 'YourWorkbook' with the name of the workbook you want to open and replace 'YourMacro' with the name of the macro you want to run.

See the VB Script File (just named it RunExcel.VBS):

    ' Create a WshShell to get the current directory
Dim WshShell
Set WshShell = CreateObject("WScript.Shell")

' Create an Excel instance
Dim myExcelWorker
Set myExcelWorker = CreateObject("Excel.Application") 

' Disable Excel UI elements
myExcelWorker.DisplayAlerts = False
myExcelWorker.AskToUpdateLinks = False
myExcelWorker.AlertBeforeOverwriting = False
myExcelWorker.FeatureInstall = msoFeatureInstallNone

' Tell Excel what the current working directory is 
' (otherwise it can't find the files)
Dim strSaveDefaultPath
Dim strPath
strSaveDefaultPath = myExcelWorker.DefaultFilePath
strPath = WshShell.CurrentDirectory
myExcelWorker.DefaultFilePath = strPath

' Open the Workbook specified on the command-line 
Dim oWorkBook
Dim strWorkerWB
strWorkerWB = strPath & "\YourWorkbook.xls"

Set oWorkBook = myExcelWorker.Workbooks.Open(strWorkerWB)

' Build the macro name with the full path to the workbook
Dim strMacroName
strMacroName = "'" & strPath & "\YourWorkbook" & "!Sheet1.YourMacro"
on error resume next 
   ' Run the calculation macro
   myExcelWorker.Run strMacroName
   if err.number <> 0 Then
      ' Error occurred - just close it down.
   End If
   err.clear
on error goto 0 

oWorkBook.Save 

myExcelWorker.DefaultFilePath = strSaveDefaultPath

' Clean up and shut down
Set oWorkBook = Nothing

' Don’t Quit() Excel if there are other Excel instances 
' running, Quit() will shut those down also
if myExcelWorker.Workbooks.Count = 0 Then
   myExcelWorker.Quit
End If

Set myExcelWorker = Nothing
Set WshShell = Nothing

You can test this VB Script from command prompt:

>> cscript.exe RunExcel.VBS

Once you have the VB Script file and workbook tested so that it does what you want, you can then use Microsoft Task Scheduler (Control Panel-> Administrative Tools--> Task Scheduler) to execute ‘cscript.exe RunExcel.vbs’ automatically for you.

Please note the path of the macro should be in correct format and inside single quotes like:

strMacroName = "'" & strPath & "\YourWorkBook.xlsm'" & 
"!ModuleName.MacroName"

Create text file and fill it using bash

Assuming you mean UNIX shell commands, just run

echo >> file.txt

echo prints a newline, and the >> tells the shell to append that newline to the file, creating if it doesn't already exist.

In order to properly answer the question, though, I'd need to know what you would want to happen if the file already does exist. If you wanted to replace its current contents with the newline, for example, you would use

echo > file.txt

EDIT: and in response to Justin's comment, if you want to add the newline only if the file didn't already exist, you can do

test -e file.txt || echo > file.txt

At least that works in Bash, I'm not sure if it also does in other shells.

A monad is just a monoid in the category of endofunctors, what's the problem?

Note: No, this isn't true. At some point there was a comment on this answer from Dan Piponi himself saying that the cause and effect here was exactly the opposite, that he wrote his article in response to James Iry's quip. But it seems to have been removed, perhaps by some compulsive tidier.

Below is my original answer.


It's quite possible that Iry had read From Monoids to Monads, a post in which Dan Piponi (sigfpe) derives monads from monoids in Haskell, with much discussion of category theory and explicit mention of "the category of endofunctors on Hask" . In any case, anyone who wonders what it means for a monad to be a monoid in the category of endofunctors might benefit from reading this derivation.

iptables block access to port 8000 except from IP address

Another alternative is;

sudo iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 8000 -s ! 1.2.3.4 -j DROP

I had similar issue that 3 bridged virtualmachine just need access eachother with different combination, so I have tested this command and it works well.

Edit**

According to Fernando comment and this link exclamation mark (!) will be placed before than -s parameter:

sudo iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 8000 ! -s 1.2.3.4 -j DROP

Getting DOM elements by classname

There is also another approach without the use of DomXPath or Zend_Dom_Query.

Based on dav's original function, I wrote the following function that returns all the children of the parent node whose tag and class match the parameters.

function getElementsByClass(&$parentNode, $tagName, $className) {
    $nodes=array();

    $childNodeList = $parentNode->getElementsByTagName($tagName);
    for ($i = 0; $i < $childNodeList->length; $i++) {
        $temp = $childNodeList->item($i);
        if (stripos($temp->getAttribute('class'), $className) !== false) {
            $nodes[]=$temp;
        }
    }

    return $nodes;
}

suppose you have a variable $html the following HTML:

<html>
 <body>
  <div id="content_node">
    <p class="a">I am in the content node.</p>
    <p class="a">I am in the content node.</p>
    <p class="a">I am in the content node.</p>    
  </div>
  <div id="footer_node">
    <p class="a">I am in the footer node.</p>
  </div>
 </body>
</html>

use of getElementsByClass is as simple as:

$dom = new DOMDocument('1.0', 'utf-8');
$dom->loadHTML($html);
$content_node=$dom->getElementById("content_node");

$div_a_class_nodes=getElementsByClass($content_node, 'div', 'a');//will contain the three nodes under "content_node".

How do I determine scrollHeight?

scrollHeight is a regular javascript property so you don't need jQuery.

var test = document.getElementById("foo").scrollHeight;
