JavaScript - Hide a Div at startup (load)

This method I've used a lot, not sure if it is a very good way but it works fine for my needs.

<html>
<head>  
    <script language="JavaScript">
    function setVisibility(id, visibility) {
    document.getElementById(id).style.display = visibility;
    }
    </script>
</head>
<body>
    <div id="HiddenStuff1" style="display:none">
    CONTENT TO HIDE 1
    </div>
    <div id="HiddenStuff2" style="display:none">
    CONTENT TO HIDE 2
    </div>
    <div id="HiddenStuff3" style="display:none">
    CONTENT TO HIDE 3
    </div>
    <input id="YOUR ID" title="HIDDEN STUFF 1" type=button name=type value='HIDDEN STUFF 1' onclick="setVisibility('HiddenStuff1', 'inline');setVisibility('HiddenStuff2', 'none');setVisibility('HiddenStuff3', 'none');";>
    <input id="YOUR ID" title="HIDDEN STUFF 2" type=button name=type value='HIDDEN STUFF 2' onclick="setVisibility('HiddenStuff1', 'none');setVisibility('HiddenStuff2', 'inline');setVisibility('HiddenStuff3', 'none');";>
    <input id="YOUR ID" title="HIDDEN STUFF 3" type=button name=type value='HIDDEN STUFF 3' onclick="setVisibility('HiddenStuff1', 'none');setVisibility('HiddenStuff2', 'none');setVisibility('HiddenStuff3', 'inline');";>
</body>

Get Value From Select Option in Angular 4

You just need to put [(ngModel)] on your select element:

Typescript: How to define type for a function callback (as any function type, not universal any) used in a method parameter

There are four abstract function types, you can use them separately when you know your function will take an argument(s) or not, will return a data or not.

export declare type fEmptyVoid = () => void;
export declare type fEmptyReturn = () => any;
export declare type fArgVoid = (...args: any[]) => void;
export declare type fArgReturn = (...args: any[]) => any;

like this:

public isValid: fEmptyReturn = (): boolean => true;
public setStatus: fArgVoid = (status: boolean): void => this.status = status;

For use only one type as any function type we can combine all abstract types together, like this:

export declare type fFunction = fEmptyVoid | fEmptyReturn | fArgVoid | fArgReturn;

then use it like:

public isValid: fFunction = (): boolean => true;
public setStatus: fFunction = (status: boolean): void => this.status = status;

In the example above everything is correct. But the usage example in bellow is not correct from the point of view of most code editors.

// you can call this function with any type of function as argument
public callArgument(callback: fFunction) {

    // but you will get editor error if call callback argument like this
    callback();
}

Correct call for editors is like this:

public callArgument(callback: fFunction) {

    // pay attention in this part, for fix editor(s) error
    (callback as fFunction)();
}

Logo image and H1 heading on the same line

If your image is part of the logo why not do this:

<h1><img src="img/logo.png" alt="logo" /> My website name</h1>

Use CSS to style it better.

And it is also best practice to make your logo a hyperlink that take the user back to the home page.

So you could do:

<h1 id="logo"><a href="/"><img src="img/logo.png" alt="logo" /> My website name</a></h1>

PHP date() with timezone?

It should like this:

date_default_timezone_set('America/New_York');

How to create a HTTP server in Android?

If you are using kotlin,consider these library. It's build for kotlin language.

AndroidHttpServer is a simple demo using ServerSocket to handle http request

https://github.com/weeChanc/AndroidHttpServer

https://github.com/ktorio/ktor

AndroidHttpServer is very small , but the feature is less as well.

Ktor is a very nice library,and the usage is simple too

Issue with background color in JavaFX 8

Try this one in your css document,

-fx-background-color : #ffaadd;

-fx-base : #ffaadd;

Also, you can set background color on your object with this code directly.

yourPane.setBackground(new Background(new BackgroundFill(Color.DARKGREEN, CornerRadii.EMPTY, Insets.EMPTY)));

BigDecimal equals() versus compareTo()

I see that BigDecimal has an inflate() method on equals() method. What does inflate() do actually?

Basically, inflate() calls BigInteger.valueOf(intCompact) if necessary, i.e. it creates the unscaled value that is stored as a BigInteger from long intCompact. If you don't need that BigInteger and the unscaled value fits into a long BigDecimal seems to try to save space as long as possible.

Styling HTML5 input type number

I have been looking for the same solution and this worked for me...add an inline css tag to control the width of the input.

For example:

<input type="number" min="1" max="5" style="width: 2em;">

Combined with the min and max attributes you can control the width of the input.

How do I check if a C++ std::string starts with a certain string, and convert a substring to an int?

In case you need C++11 compatibility and cannot use boost, here is a boost-compatible drop-in with an example of usage:

#include <iostream>
#include <string>

static bool starts_with(const std::string str, const std::string prefix)
{
    return ((prefix.size() <= str.size()) && std::equal(prefix.begin(), prefix.end(), str.begin()));
}

int main(int argc, char* argv[])
{
    bool usage = false;
    unsigned int foos = 0; // default number of foos if no parameter was supplied

    if (argc > 1)
    {
        const std::string fParamPrefix = "-f="; // shorthand for foo
        const std::string fooParamPrefix = "--foo=";

        for (unsigned int i = 1; i < argc; ++i)
        {
            const std::string arg = argv[i];

            try
            {
                if ((arg == "-h") || (arg == "--help"))
                {
                    usage = true;
                } else if (starts_with(arg, fParamPrefix)) {
                    foos = std::stoul(arg.substr(fParamPrefix.size()));
                } else if (starts_with(arg, fooParamPrefix)) {
                    foos = std::stoul(arg.substr(fooParamPrefix.size()));
                }
            } catch (std::exception& e) {
                std::cerr << "Invalid parameter: " << argv[i] << std::endl << std::endl;
                usage = true;
            }
        }
    }

    if (usage)
    {
        std::cerr << "Usage: " << argv[0] << " [OPTION]..." << std::endl;
        std::cerr << "Example program for parameter parsing." << std::endl << std::endl;
        std::cerr << "  -f, --foo=N   use N foos (optional)" << std::endl;
        return 1;
    }

    std::cerr << "number of foos given: " << foos << std::endl;
}

How to pretty print nested dictionaries?

I'm not sure how exactly you want the formatting to look like, but you could start with a function like this:

def pretty(d, indent=0):
   for key, value in d.items():
      print('\t' * indent + str(key))
      if isinstance(value, dict):
         pretty(value, indent+1)
      else:
         print('\t' * (indent+1) + str(value))

Getting Data from Android Play Store

I've coded a small Node.js module to scrape app and list data from Google Play: google-play-scraper

var gplay = require('google-play-scrapper');

gplay.List({

How do you extract classes' source code from a dll file?

If you want to know only some basics inside the dll assembly e.g. Classes, method etc.,to load them dyanamically

you can make use of IL Disassembler tool provided by Microsoft.

Generally located at: "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v7.0A\Bin"

How do I create JavaScript array (JSON format) dynamically?

react-router - pass props to handler component

Use the component with or without router based on Rajesh Naroth answer.

class Index extends React.Component {

  constructor(props) {
    super(props);
  }
  render() {
    const foo = (this.props.route) ? this.props.route.foo : this.props.foo;
    return (
      <h1>
        Index - {foo}
      </h1>
    );
  }
}

var routes = (
  <Route path="/" foo="bar" component={Index}/>
);

Or your could do it this way:

export const Index = ({foo, route}) => {
  const content = (foo) ? foo : (route) ? route.foo : 'No content found!';
  return <h1>{content}</h1>
};

Difference between HashSet and HashMap?

A HashSet is implemented in terms of a HashMap. It's a mapping between the key and a PRESENT object.

Why is the <center> tag deprecated in HTML?

You can still use this with XHTML 1.0 Transitional and HTML 4.01 Transitional if you like. The only other way (best way, in my opinion) is with margins:

<div style="width:200px;margin:auto;">
  <p>Hello World</p>
</div>

Your HTML should define the element, not govern its presentation.

Is there an alternative sleep function in C to milliseconds?

Yes - older POSIX standards defined usleep(), so this is available on Linux:

int usleep(useconds_t usec);
DESCRIPTION

The usleep() function suspends execution of the calling thread for (at least) usec microseconds. The sleep may be lengthened slightly by any system activity or by the time spent processing the call or by the granularity of system timers.

usleep() takes microseconds, so you will have to multiply the input by 1000 in order to sleep in milliseconds.

usleep() has since been deprecated and subsequently removed from POSIX; for new code, nanosleep() is preferred:

#include <time.h>

int nanosleep(const struct timespec *req, struct timespec *rem);
DESCRIPTION

nanosleep() suspends the execution of the calling thread until either at least the time specified in *req has elapsed, or the delivery of a signal that triggers the invocation of a handler in the calling thread or that terminates the process.

The structure timespec is used to specify intervals of time with nanosecond precision. It is defined as follows:
struct timespec {
    time_t tv_sec;        /* seconds */
    long   tv_nsec;       /* nanoseconds */
};

An example msleep() function implemented using nanosleep(), continuing the sleep if it is interrupted by a signal:

#include <time.h>
#include <errno.h>    

/* msleep(): Sleep for the requested number of milliseconds. */
int msleep(long msec)
{
    struct timespec ts;
    int res;

    if (msec < 0)
    {
        errno = EINVAL;
        return -1;
    }

    ts.tv_sec = msec / 1000;
    ts.tv_nsec = (msec % 1000) * 1000000;

    do {
        res = nanosleep(&ts, &ts);
    } while (res && errno == EINTR);

    return res;
}

GoTo Next Iteration in For Loop in java

If you want to skip current iteration, use continue;.

for(int i = 0; i < 5; i++){
    if (i == 2){
        continue;
    }
 }

Need to break out of the whole loop? Use break;

for(int i = 0; i < 5; i++){
    if (i == 2){
        break;
    }
}

If you need to break out of more than one loop use break someLabel;

outerLoop:                                           // Label the loop
for(int j = 0; j < 5; j++){
     for(int i = 0; i < 5; i++){
        if (i==2){
          break outerLoop;
        }
     }
  }

*Note that in this case you are not marking a point in code to jump to, you are labeling the loop! So after the break the code will continue right after the loop!

When you need to skip one iteration in nested loops use continue someLabel;, but you can also combine them all.

outerLoop:
for(int j = 0; j < 10; j++){
     innerLoop:
     for(int i = 0; i < 10; i++){
        if (i + j == 2){
          continue innerLoop;
        }
        if (i + j == 4){
          continue outerLoop;
        }
        if (i + j == 6){
          break innerLoop;
        }
        if (i + j == 8){
          break outerLoop;
        }
     }
  }

Outputting data from unit test in Python

I think I might have been overthinking this. One way I've come up with that does the job, is simply to have a global variable, that accumulates the diagnostic data.

Somthing like this:

log1 = dict()
class TestBar(unittest.TestCase):
    def runTest(self):
        for t1, t2 in testdata:
            f = Foo(t1) 
            if f.bar(t2) != 2: 
                log1("TestBar.runTest") = (f, t1, t2)
                self.fail("f.bar(t2) != 2")

Thanks for the replies. They have given me some alternative ideas for how to record information from unit tests in python.

Create auto-numbering on images/figures in MS Word

Select whole document (Ctrl+A)
Press F9
Save

Should update the figure caption automatically.

My question is tho, how can one also 'assign' referenced figures '(Fig.4)' in the text to do the same thing - aka change when an image is added above it?

EDIT: Figured it out.. In word go to Insert and Cross-ref and assign the ref. Then Ctrl+A and F9 and everything should sort itself out.

String contains another two strings

With the code d.Contains(b + a) you check if "You hit someone for 50 damage" contains "someonedamage". And this (i guess) you don't want.

The + concats the two string of b and a.

You have to check it by

if(d.Contains(b) && d.Contains(a))

How to declare a constant in Java

final means that the value cannot be changed after initialization, that's what makes it a constant. static means that instead of having space allocated for the field in each object, only one instance is created for the class.

So, static final means only one instance of the variable no matter how many objects are created and the value of that variable can never change.

Allow Google Chrome to use XMLHttpRequest to load a URL from a local file

startup chrome with --disable-web-security

On Windows:

chrome.exe --disable-web-security

On Mac:

open /Applications/Google\ Chrome.app/ --args --disable-web-security

This will allow for cross-domain requests.
I'm not aware of if this also works for local files, but let us know !

And mention, this does exactly what you expect, it disables the web security, so be careful with it.

Undoing a 'git push'

Scenario 1: If you want to undo the last commit say 8123b7e04b3, below is the command(this worked for me):

git push origin +8123b7e04b3^:<branch_name>

Output looks like below:

Total 0 (delta 0), reused 0 (delta 0)
To https://testlocation/code.git
 + 8123b7e...92bc500 8123b7e04b3^ -> master (forced update)

Note: To update the change to your local code (to remove the commit locally as well) :

$ git reset --hard origin/<branchName>
Message displayed is :    HEAD is now at 8a3902a comments_entered_for_commit

Additional info: Scenario 2: In some situation, you may want to revert back what you just undo'ed (basically undo the undo) through the previous command, then use the below command:

git reset --hard 8123b7e04b3

Output:

HEAD is now at cc6206c Comment_that_was_entered_for_commit

How to compare two dates?

Use the datetime method and the operator < and its kin.

>>> from datetime import datetime, timedelta
>>> past = datetime.now() - timedelta(days=1)
>>> present = datetime.now()
>>> past < present
True
>>> datetime(3000, 1, 1) < present
False
>>> present - datetime(2000, 4, 4)
datetime.timedelta(4242, 75703, 762105)

Can't use SURF, SIFT in OpenCV

just change SHIFT to ORB, I think it make occur because of non-relevant version, ORB is efficient and better alternative of SHIFT or SURF.

As I also face same problem when i was used cv2.SHIFT()

ERROR: AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'SIFT'

Now its completely working for me please try this:

ORB = cv2.ORB()

Truncating a table in a stored procedure

You should know that it is not possible to directly run a DDL statement like you do for DML from a PL/SQL block because PL/SQL does not support late binding directly it only support compile time binding which is fine for DML. hence to overcome this type of problem oracle has provided a dynamic SQL approach which can be used to execute the DDL statements.The dynamic sql approach is about parsing and binding of sql string at the runtime. Also you should rememder that DDL statements are by default auto commit hence you should be careful about any of the DDL statement using the dynamic SQL approach incase if you have some DML (which needs to be commited explicitly using TCL) before executing the DDL in the stored proc/function.

You can use any of the following dynamic sql approach to execute a DDL statement from a pl/sql block.

1) Execute immediate

2) DBMS_SQL package

3) DBMS_UTILITY.EXEC_DDL_STATEMENT (parse_string IN VARCHAR2);

Hope this answers your question with explanation.

Adding elements to a collection during iteration

For examle we have two lists:

  public static void main(String[] args) {
        ArrayList a = new ArrayList(Arrays.asList(new String[]{"a1", "a2", "a3","a4", "a5"}));
        ArrayList b = new ArrayList(Arrays.asList(new String[]{"b1", "b2", "b3","b4", "b5"}));
        merge(a, b);
        a.stream().map( x -> x + " ").forEach(System.out::print);
    }
   public static void merge(List a, List b){
        for (Iterator itb = b.iterator(); itb.hasNext(); ){
            for (ListIterator it = a.listIterator() ; it.hasNext() ; ){
                it.next();
                it.add(itb.next());

            }
        }

    }

a1 b1 a2 b2 a3 b3 a4 b4 a5 b5

Oracle: SQL query that returns rows with only numeric values

If the only characters to consider are letters then you can do:

select X from myTable where upper(X) = lower(X)

But of course that won't filter out other characters, just letters.

What is the proper use of an EventEmitter?

When you want to have cross component interaction, then you need to know what are @Input , @Output , EventEmitter and Subjects.

If the relation between components is parent- child or vice versa we use @input & @output with event emitter..

@output emits an event and you need to emit using event emitter.

If it's not parent child relationship.. then you have to use subjects or through a common service.

How to Remove the last char of String in C#?

YourString = YourString.Remove(YourString.Length - 1);

T-SQL: Using a CASE in an UPDATE statement to update certain columns depending on a condition

You can't use a condition to change the structure of your query, just the data involved. You could do this:

update table set
    columnx = (case when condition then 25 else columnx end),
    columny = (case when condition then columny else 25 end)

This is semantically the same, but just bear in mind that both columns will always be updated. This probably won't cause you any problems, but if you have a high transactional volume, then this could cause concurrency issues.

The only way to do specifically what you're asking is to use dynamic SQL. This is, however, something I'd encourage you to stay away from. The solution above will almost certainly be sufficient for what you're after.

Differences between Lodash and Underscore.js

I am not sure if that is what OP meant, but I came across this question because I was searching for a list of issues I have to keep in mind when migrating from Underscore.js to Lodash.

I would really appreciate if someone posted an article with a complete list of such differences. Let me start with the things I've learned the hard way (that is, things which made my code explode on production:/):

_.flatten in Underscore.js is deep by default, and you have to pass true as second argument to make it shallow. In Lodash it is shallow by default and passing true as second argument will make it deep! :)
_.last in Underscore.js accepts a second argument which tells how many elements you want. In Lodash there is no such option. You can emulate this with .slice
_.first (same issue)
_.template in Underscore.js can be used in many ways, one of which is providing the template string and data and getting HTML back (or at least that's how it worked some time ago). In Lodash you receive a function which you should then feed with the data.
_(something).map(foo) works in Underscore.js, but in Lodash I had to rewrite it to _.map(something,foo). Perhaps that was just a TypeScript-issue.

Simple insecure two-way data "obfuscation"?

Using the builtin .Net Cryptography library, this example shows how to use the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES).

                // Create a new instance of the Aes
                // class.  This generates a new key and initialization 
                // vector (IV).
                using (Aes myAes = Aes.Create())
                {

                    // Encrypt the string to an array of bytes.
                    byte[] encrypted = EncryptStringToBytes_Aes(original, myAes.Key, myAes.IV);

                    // Decrypt the bytes to a string.
                    string roundtrip = DecryptStringFromBytes_Aes(encrypted, myAes.Key, myAes.IV);

                    //Display the original data and the decrypted data.
                    Console.WriteLine("Original:   {0}", original);

            byte[] encrypted;
            // Create an Aes object
            // with the specified key and IV.
            using (Aes aesAlg = Aes.Create())
            {
                aesAlg.Key = Key;
                aesAlg.IV = IV;

How do I change the text size in a label widget, python tkinter

Try passing width=200 as additional paramater when creating the Label.

This should work in creating label with specified width.

If you want to change it later, you can use:

label.config(width=200)

As you want to change the size of font itself you can try:

label.config(font=("Courier", 44))

How to skip over an element in .map()?

TLDR: You can first filter your array and then perform your map but this would require two passes on the array (filter returns an array to map). Since this array is small, it is a very small performance cost. You can also do a simple reduce. However if you want to re-imagine how this can be done with a single pass over the array (or any datatype), you can use an idea called "transducers" made popular by Rich Hickey.

Answer:

We should not require increasing dot chaining and operating on the array [].map(fn1).filter(f2)... since this approach creates intermediate arrays in memory on every reducing function.

The best approach operates on the actual reducing function so there is only one pass of data and no extra arrays.

The reducing function is the function passed into reduce and takes an accumulator and input from the source and returns something that looks like the accumulator

// 1. create a concat reducing function that can be passed into `reduce`
const concat = (acc, input) => acc.concat([input])

// note that [1,2,3].reduce(concat, []) would return [1,2,3]

// transforming your reducing function by mapping
// 2. create a generic mapping function that can take a reducing function and return another reducing function
const mapping = (changeInput) => (reducing) => (acc, input) => reducing(acc, changeInput(input))

// 3. create your map function that operates on an input
const getSrc = (x) => x.src
const mappingSrc = mapping(getSrc)

// 4. now we can use our `mapSrc` function to transform our original function `concat` to get another reducing function
const inputSources = [{src:'one.html'}, {src:'two.txt'}, {src:'three.json'}]
inputSources.reduce(mappingSrc(concat), [])
// -> ['one.html', 'two.txt', 'three.json']

// remember this is really essentially just
// inputSources.reduce((acc, x) => acc.concat([x.src]), [])


// transforming your reducing function by filtering
// 5. create a generic filtering function that can take a reducing function and return another reducing function
const filtering = (predicate) => (reducing) => (acc, input) => (predicate(input) ? reducing(acc, input): acc)

// 6. create your filter function that operate on an input
const filterJsonAndLoad = (img) => {
  console.log(img)
  if(img.src.split('.').pop() === 'json') {
    // game.loadSprite(...);
    return false;
  } else {
    return true;
  }
}
const filteringJson = filtering(filterJsonAndLoad)

// 7. notice the type of input and output of these functions
// concat is a reducing function,
// mapSrc transforms and returns a reducing function
// filterJsonAndLoad transforms and returns a reducing function
// these functions that transform reducing functions are "transducers", termed by Rich Hickey
// source: http://clojure.com/blog/2012/05/15/anatomy-of-reducer.html
// we can pass this all into reduce! and without any intermediate arrays

const sources = inputSources.reduce(filteringJson(mappingSrc(concat)), []);
// [ 'one.html', 'two.txt' ]

// ==================================
// 8. BONUS: compose all the functions
// You can decide to create a composing function which takes an infinite number of transducers to
// operate on your reducing function to compose a computed accumulator without ever creating that
// intermediate array
const composeAll = (...args) => (x) => {
  const fns = args
  var i = fns.length
  while (i--) {
    x = fns[i].call(this, x);
  }
  return x
}

const doABunchOfStuff = composeAll(
    filtering((x) => x.src.split('.').pop() !== 'json'),
    mapping((x) => x.src),
    mapping((x) => x.toUpperCase()),
    mapping((x) => x + '!!!')
)

const sources2 = inputSources.reduce(doABunchOfStuff(concat), [])
// ['ONE.HTML!!!', 'TWO.TXT!!!']

jQuery: Get the cursor position of text in input without browser specific code?

Using the syntax text_element.selectionStart we can get the starting position of the selection of a text in terms of the index of the first character of the selected text in the text_element.value and in case we want to get the same of the last character in the selection we have to use text_element.selectionEnd.

Use it as follows:

<input type=text id=t1 value=abcd>
<button onclick="alert(document.getElementById('t1').selectionStart)">check position</button>

PYTHONPATH on Linux

1) PYTHONPATH is an environment variable which you can set to add additional directories where python will look for modules and packages. e.g.:

# make python look in the foo subdirectory of your home directory for
# modules and packages 
export PYTHONPATH=${PYTHONPATH}:${HOME}/foo

Here I use the sh syntax. For other shells (e.g. csh,tcsh), the syntax would be slightly different. To make it permanent, set the variable in your shell's init file (usually ~/.bashrc).

2) Ubuntu comes with python already installed. There may be reasons for installing other (independent) python versions, but I've found that to be rarely necessary.

3) The folder where your modules live is dependent on PYTHONPATH and where the directories were set up when python was installed. For the most part, the installed stuff you shouldn't care about where it lives -- Python knows where it is and it can find the modules. Sort of like issuing the command ls -- where does ls live? /usr/bin? /bin? 99% of the time, you don't need to care -- Just use ls and be happy that it lives somewhere on your PATH so the shell can find it.

4) I'm not sure I understand the question. 3rd party modules usually come with install instructions. If you follow the instructions, python should be able to find the module and you shouldn't have to care about where it got installed.

5) Configure PYTHONPATH to include the directory where your module resides and python will be able to find your module.

New line in JavaScript alert box

use the new line character of a javascript instead of '\n'.. eg: "Hello\nWorld" use "Hello\x0AWorld" It works great!!

Extract a page from a pdf as a jpeg

There is no need to install Poppler on your OS. This will work:

pip install Wand

from wand.image import Image

f = "somefile.pdf"
with(Image(filename=f, resolution=120)) as source: 
    for i, image in enumerate(source.sequence):
        newfilename = f[:-4] + str(i + 1) + '.jpeg'
        Image(image).save(filename=newfilename)

Opening a CHM file produces: "navigation to the webpage was canceled"

In addition to Eric Leschinski's answer, and because this is stackoverflow, a programmatical solution:

Windows uses hidden file forks to mark content as "downloaded". Truncating these unblocks the file. The name of the stream used for CHM's is "Zone.Identifier". One can access streams by appending :streamname when opening the file. (keep backups the first time, in case your RTL messes that up!)

In Delphi it would look like this:

var f : file;
begin
 writeln('unblocking ',s);
 assignfile(f,'some.chm:Zone.Identifier');
 rewrite(f,1);
 truncate(f);
 closefile(f);
end;

I'm told that on non forked filesystems (like FAT32) there are hidden files, but I haven't gotten to the bottom of that yet.

P.s. Delphi's DeleteFile() should also recognize forks.

Logging best practices

We use Log4Net at work as the logging provider, with a singleton wrapper for the log instance (although the singleton is under review, questioning whether they are a good idea or not).

We chose it for the following reasons:

Simple configuration/ reconfiguration on various environments
Good number of pre-built appenders
One of the CMS's we use already had it built in
Nice number of log levels and configurations around them

I should mention, this is speaking from an ASP.NET development point of view

I can see some merits in using the Trace that is in the .NET framework but I'm not entirely sold on it, mainly because the components I work with don't really do any Trace calls. The only thing that I frequently use that does is System.Net.Mail from what I can tell.

So we have a library which wraps log4net and within our code we just need stuff like this:

Logger.Instance.Warn("Something to warn about");
Logger.Instance.Fatal("Something went bad!", new Exception());

try {
  var i = int.Parse("Hello World");
} catch(FormatException, ex) {
  Logger.Instance.Error(ex);
}

Within the methods we do a check to see if the logging level is enabled, so you don't have redundant calls to the log4net API (so if Debug isn't enabled, the debug statements are ignored), but when I get some time I'll be updating it to expose those so that you can do the checks yourself. This will prevent evaluations being undertaken when they shouldn't, eg:

Logger.Instance.Debug(string.Format("Something to debug at {0}", DateTime.Now);

This will become:

if(Logger.DebugEnabled) Logger.Instance.Debug(string.Format("Something to debug at {0}", DateTime.Now);

(Save a bit of execusion time)

By default we log at two locations:

File system of the website (in a non-served file extension)
Email sending for Error & Fatal

Files are done as rolling of each day or 10mb (IIRC). We don't use the EventLog as it can require higher security than we often want to give a site.

How to indent HTML tags in Notepad++

I have a solution for you.

Just you need to install a plugin named Indent By Fold.

You can install this by going through Plugins -> Plugin Manager -> Show Plugin Manager. OR Plugins -> Plugins Admin -> chekmark Indent By Fold from list than install

Then just select the list item and all you need is to type the first word then you got it.

you can use this plugin from a plugin in the menu bar.

How to load json into my angular.js ng-model?

As Kris mentions, you can use the $resource service to interact with the server, but I get the impression you are beginning your journey with Angular - I was there last week - so I recommend to start experimenting directly with the $http service. In this case you can call its get method.

If you have the following JSON

[{ "text":"learn angular", "done":true },
 { "text":"build an angular app", "done":false},
 { "text":"something", "done":false },
 { "text":"another todo", "done":true }]

You can load it like this

var App = angular.module('App', []);

App.controller('TodoCtrl', function($scope, $http) {
  $http.get('todos.json')
       .then(function(res){
          $scope.todos = res.data;                
        });
});

The get method returns a promise object which first argument is a success callback and the second an error callback.

When you add $http as a parameter of a function Angular does it magic and injects the $http resource into your controller.

I've put some examples here

How can I get Eclipse to show .* files?

In your package explorer, pull down the menu and select "Filters ...". You can adjust what types of files are shown/hidden there.

Looking at my Red Hat Developer Studio (approximately Eclipse 3.2), I see that the top item in the list is ".* resources" and it is excluded by default.

How does the "view" method work in PyTorch?

`torch.Tensor.view()`

Simply put, torch.Tensor.view() which is inspired by numpy.ndarray.reshape() or numpy.reshape(), creates a new view of the tensor, as long as the new shape is compatible with the shape of the original tensor.

Let's understand this in detail using a concrete example.

In [43]: t = torch.arange(18) 

In [44]: t 
Out[44]: 
tensor([ 0,  1,  2,  3,  4,  5,  6,  7,  8,  9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17])

With this tensor t of shape (18,), new views can only be created for the following shapes:

(1, 18) or equivalently (1, -1) or (-1, 18)
(2, 9) or equivalently (2, -1) or (-1, 9)
(3, 6) or equivalently (3, -1) or (-1, 6)
(6, 3) or equivalently (6, -1) or (-1, 3)
(9, 2) or equivalently (9, -1) or (-1, 2)
(18, 1) or equivalently (18, -1) or (-1, 1)

As we can already observe from the above shape tuples, the multiplication of the elements of the shape tuple (e.g. 2*9, 3*6 etc.) must always be equal to the total number of elements in the original tensor (18 in our example).

Another thing to observe is that we used a -1 in one of the places in each of the shape tuples. By using a -1, we are being lazy in doing the computation ourselves and rather delegate the task to PyTorch to do calculation of that value for the shape when it creates the new view. One important thing to note is that we can only use a single -1 in the shape tuple. The remaining values should be explicitly supplied by us. Else PyTorch will complain by throwing a RuntimeError:

RuntimeError: only one dimension can be inferred

So, with all of the above mentioned shapes, PyTorch will always return a new view of the original tensor t. This basically means that it just changes the stride information of the tensor for each of the new views that are requested.

Below are some examples illustrating how the strides of the tensors are changed with each new view.

# stride of our original tensor `t`
In [53]: t.stride() 
Out[53]: (1,)

Now, we will see the strides for the new views:

# shape (1, 18)
In [54]: t1 = t.view(1, -1)
# stride tensor `t1` with shape (1, 18)
In [55]: t1.stride() 
Out[55]: (18, 1)

# shape (2, 9)
In [56]: t2 = t.view(2, -1)
# stride of tensor `t2` with shape (2, 9)
In [57]: t2.stride()       
Out[57]: (9, 1)

# shape (3, 6)
In [59]: t3 = t.view(3, -1) 
# stride of tensor `t3` with shape (3, 6)
In [60]: t3.stride() 
Out[60]: (6, 1)

# shape (6, 3)
In [62]: t4 = t.view(6,-1)
# stride of tensor `t4` with shape (6, 3)
In [63]: t4.stride() 
Out[63]: (3, 1)

# shape (9, 2)
In [65]: t5 = t.view(9, -1) 
# stride of tensor `t5` with shape (9, 2)
In [66]: t5.stride()
Out[66]: (2, 1)

# shape (18, 1)
In [68]: t6 = t.view(18, -1)
# stride of tensor `t6` with shape (18, 1)
In [69]: t6.stride()
Out[69]: (1, 1)

So that's the magic of the view() function. It just changes the strides of the (original) tensor for each of the new views, as long as the shape of the new view is compatible with the original shape.

Another interesting thing one might observe from the strides tuples is that the value of the element in the 0^th position is equal to the value of the element in the 1^st position of the shape tuple.

In [74]: t3.shape 
Out[74]: torch.Size([3, 6])
                        |
In [75]: t3.stride()    |
Out[75]: (6, 1)         |
          |_____________|

This is because:

In [76]: t3 
Out[76]: 
tensor([[ 0,  1,  2,  3,  4,  5],
        [ 6,  7,  8,  9, 10, 11],
        [12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17]])

the stride (6, 1) says that to go from one element to the next element along the 0^th dimension, we have to jump or take 6 steps. (i.e. to go from 0 to 6, one has to take 6 steps.) But to go from one element to the next element in the 1^st dimension, we just need only one step (for e.g. to go from 2 to 3).

Thus, the strides information is at the heart of how the elements are accessed from memory for performing the computation.

torch.reshape()

This function would return a view and is exactly the same as using torch.Tensor.view() as long as the new shape is compatible with the shape of the original tensor. Otherwise, it will return a copy.

However, the notes of torch.reshape() warns that:

contiguous inputs and inputs with compatible strides can be reshaped without copying, but one should not depend on the copying vs. viewing behavior.

css overflow - only 1 line of text

You can use this css code:

text-overflow: ellipsis; 
overflow: hidden; 
white-space: nowrap;

The text-overflow property in CSS deals with situations where text is clipped when it overflows the element's box. It can be clipped (i.e. cut off, hidden), display an ellipsis ('…', Unicode Range Value U+2026).

Note that text-overflow only occurs when the container's overflow property has the value hidden, scroll or auto and white-space: nowrap;.

Text overflow can only happen on block or inline-block level elements, because the element needs to have a width in order to be overflow-ed. The overflow happens in the direction as determined by the direction property or related attributes.

                    }
                }
            }
            return errorCode;
        }
    }

How do I check if an array includes a value in JavaScript?

ECMAScript 6 has an elegant proposal on find.

The find method executes the callback function once for each element present in the array until it finds one where callback returns a true value. If such an element is found, find immediately returns the value of that element. Otherwise, find returns undefined. callback is invoked only for indexes of the array which have assigned values; it is not invoked for indexes which have been deleted or which have never been assigned values.

Here is the MDN documentation on that.

The find functionality works like this.

function isPrime(element, index, array) {
    var start = 2;
    while (start <= Math.sqrt(element)) {
        if (element % start++ < 1) return false;
    }
    return (element > 1);
}

console.log( [4, 6, 8, 12].find(isPrime) ); // Undefined, not found
console.log( [4, 5, 8, 12].find(isPrime) ); // 5

You can use this in ECMAScript 5 and below by defining the function.

if (!Array.prototype.find) {
  Object.defineProperty(Array.prototype, 'find', {
    enumerable: false,
    configurable: true,
    writable: true,
    value: function(predicate) {
      if (this == null) {
        throw new TypeError('Array.prototype.find called on null or undefined');
      }
      if (typeof predicate !== 'function') {
        throw new TypeError('predicate must be a function');
      }
      var list = Object(this);
      var length = list.length >>> 0;
      var thisArg = arguments[1];
      var value;

      for (var i = 0; i < length; i++) {
        if (i in list) {
          value = list[i];
          if (predicate.call(thisArg, value, i, list)) {
            return value;
          }
        }
      }
      return undefined;
    }
  });
}

What is Java String interning?

http://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/api/java/lang/String.html#intern()

Basically doing String.intern() on a series of strings will ensure that all strings having same contents share same memory. So if you have list of names where 'john' appears 1000 times, by interning you ensure only one 'john' is actually allocated memory.

This can be useful to reduce memory requirements of your program. But be aware that the cache is maintained by JVM in permanent memory pool which is usually limited in size compared to heap so you should not use intern if you don't have too many duplicate values.

More on memory constraints of using intern()

On one hand, it is true that you can remove String duplicates by internalizing them. The problem is that the internalized strings go to the Permanent Generation, which is an area of the JVM that is reserved for non-user objects, like Classes, Methods and other internal JVM objects. The size of this area is limited, and is usually much smaller than the heap. Calling intern() on a String has the effect of moving it out from the heap into the permanent generation, and you risk running out of PermGen space.

-- From: http://www.codeinstructions.com/2009/01/busting-javalangstringintern-myths.html

From JDK 7 (I mean in HotSpot), something has changed.

In JDK 7, interned strings are no longer allocated in the permanent generation of the Java heap, but are instead allocated in the main part of the Java heap (known as the young and old generations), along with the other objects created by the application. This change will result in more data residing in the main Java heap, and less data in the permanent generation, and thus may require heap sizes to be adjusted. Most applications will see only relatively small differences in heap usage due to this change, but larger applications that load many classes or make heavy use of the String.intern() method will see more significant differences.

-- From Java SE 7 Features and Enhancements

Update: Interned strings are stored in main heap from Java 7 onwards. http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/jdk7-relnotes-418459.html#jdk7changes

Objects are not valid as a React child. If you meant to render a collection of children, use an array instead

I also occured the error,and I sloved it by removing the curly braces,hope it will help someone else.

You can see that ,I did not put the con in the curly brace,and the error occured ,when I remove the burly brace , the error disappeared.

const modal = (props) => {
const { show, onClose } = props;

let con = <div className="modal" onClick={onClose}>
        {props.children}
        </div>;

return show === true ? (
    {con}
) : (
    <div>hello</div>
);

There are an article about the usage of the curly brace.click here

javascript setTimeout() not working

If you want to pass a parameter to the delayed function:

    setTimeout(setTimer, 3000, param1, param2);

Check if enum exists in Java

Since Java 8, we could use streams instead of for loops. Also, it might be apropriate to return an Optional if the enum does not have an instance with such a name.

I have come up with the following three alternatives on how to look up an enum:

private enum Test {
    TEST1, TEST2;

    public Test fromNameOrThrowException(String name) {
        return Arrays.stream(values())
                .filter(e -> e.name().equals(name))
                .findFirst()
                .orElseThrow(() -> new IllegalArgumentException("No enum with name " + name));
    }

    public Test fromNameOrNull(String name) {
        return Arrays.stream(values()).filter(e -> e.name().equals(name)).findFirst().orElse(null);
    }

    public Optional<Test> fromName(String name) {
        return Arrays.stream(values()).filter(e -> e.name().equals(name)).findFirst();
    }
}

Auto submit form on page load

This is the way it worked for me, because with other methods the form was sent empty:

<form name="yourform" id="yourform" method="POST" action="yourpage.html">
    <input type=hidden name="data" value="yourdata">
    <input type="submit" id="send" name="send" value="Send">
</form>
<script>            
    document.addEventListener("DOMContentLoaded", function(event) {
            document.createElement('form').submit.call(document.getElementById('yourform'));
            });         
</script>

how to change directory using Windows command line

The "cd" command changes the directory, but not what drive you are working with. So when you go "cd d:\temp", you are changing the D drive's directory to temp, but staying in the C drive.

Execute these two commands:

D:
cd temp

That will get you the results you want.

How to send FormData objects with Ajax-requests in jQuery?

You can send the FormData object in ajax request using the following code,

$("form#formElement").submit(function(){
    var formData = new FormData($(this)[0]);
});

This is very similar to the accepted answer but an actual answer to the question topic. This will submit the form elements automatically in the FormData and you don't need to manually append the data to FormData variable.

The ajax method looks like this,

$("form#formElement").submit(function(){
    var formData = new FormData($(this)[0]);
    //append some non-form data also
    formData.append('other_data',$("#someInputData").val());
    $.ajax({
        type: "POST",
        url: postDataUrl,
        data: formData,
        processData: false,
        contentType: false,
        dataType: "json",
        success: function(data, textStatus, jqXHR) {
           //process data
        },
        error: function(data, textStatus, jqXHR) {
           //process error msg
        },
});

You can also manually pass the form element inside the FormData object as a parameter like this

var formElem = $("#formId");
var formdata = new FormData(formElem[0]);

Hope it helps. ;)

Numpy first occurrence of value greater than existing value

Arrays that have a constant step between elements

In case of a range or any other linearly increasing array you can simply calculate the index programmatically, no need to actually iterate over the array at all:

def first_index_calculate_range_like(val, arr):
    if len(arr) == 0:
        raise ValueError('no value greater than {}'.format(val))
    elif len(arr) == 1:
        if arr[0] > val:
            return 0
        else:
            raise ValueError('no value greater than {}'.format(val))

    first_value = arr[0]
    step = arr[1] - first_value
    # For linearly decreasing arrays or constant arrays we only need to check
    # the first element, because if that does not satisfy the condition
    # no other element will.
    if step <= 0:
        if first_value > val:
            return 0
        else:
            raise ValueError('no value greater than {}'.format(val))

    calculated_position = (val - first_value) / step

    if calculated_position < 0:
        return 0
    elif calculated_position > len(arr) - 1:
        raise ValueError('no value greater than {}'.format(val))

    return int(calculated_position) + 1

One could probably improve that a bit. I have made sure it works correctly for a few sample arrays and values but that doesn't mean there couldn't be mistakes in there, especially considering that it uses floats...

>>> import numpy as np
>>> first_index_calculate_range_like(5, np.arange(-10, 10))
16
>>> np.arange(-10, 10)[16]  # double check
6

>>> first_index_calculate_range_like(4.8, np.arange(-10, 10))
15

Given that it can calculate the position without any iteration it will be constant time (O(1)) and can probably beat all other mentioned approaches. However it requires a constant step in the array, otherwise it will produce wrong results.

General solution using numba

A more general approach would be using a numba function:

@nb.njit
def first_index_numba(val, arr):
    for idx in range(len(arr)):
        if arr[idx] > val:
            return idx
    return -1

That will work for any array but it has to iterate over the array, so in the average case it will be O(n):

>>> first_index_numba(4.8, np.arange(-10, 10))
15
>>> first_index_numba(5, np.arange(-10, 10))
16

Benchmark

Even though Nico Schlömer already provided some benchmarks I thought it might be useful to include my new solutions and to test for different "values".

The test setup:

import numpy as np
import math
import numba as nb

def first_index_using_argmax(val, arr):
    return np.argmax(arr > val)

def first_index_using_where(val, arr):
    return np.where(arr > val)[0][0]

def first_index_using_nonzero(val, arr):
    return np.nonzero(arr > val)[0][0]

def first_index_using_searchsorted(val, arr):
    return np.searchsorted(arr, val) + 1

def first_index_using_min(val, arr):
    return np.min(np.where(arr > val))

def first_index_calculate_range_like(val, arr):
    if len(arr) == 0:
        raise ValueError('empty array')
    elif len(arr) == 1:
        if arr[0] > val:
            return 0
        else:
            raise ValueError('no value greater than {}'.format(val))

    first_value = arr[0]
    step = arr[1] - first_value
    if step <= 0:
        if first_value > val:
            return 0
        else:
            raise ValueError('no value greater than {}'.format(val))

    calculated_position = (val - first_value) / step

    if calculated_position < 0:
        return 0
    elif calculated_position > len(arr) - 1:
        raise ValueError('no value greater than {}'.format(val))

    return int(calculated_position) + 1

@nb.njit
def first_index_numba(val, arr):
    for idx in range(len(arr)):
        if arr[idx] > val:
            return idx
    return -1

funcs = [
    first_index_using_argmax, 
    first_index_using_min, 
    first_index_using_nonzero,
    first_index_calculate_range_like, 
    first_index_numba, 
    first_index_using_searchsorted, 
    first_index_using_where
]

from simple_benchmark import benchmark, MultiArgument

and the plots were generated using:

%matplotlib notebook
b.plot()

item is at the beginning

b = benchmark(
    funcs,
    {2**i: MultiArgument([0, np.arange(2**i)]) for i in range(2, 20)},
    argument_name="array size")

The numba function performs best followed by the calculate-function and the searchsorted function. The other solutions perform much worse.

item is at the end

b = benchmark(
    funcs,
    {2**i: MultiArgument([2**i-2, np.arange(2**i)]) for i in range(2, 20)},
    argument_name="array size")

For small arrays the numba function performs amazingly fast, however for bigger arrays it's outperformed by the calculate-function and the searchsorted function.

item is at sqrt(len)

b = benchmark(
    funcs,
    {2**i: MultiArgument([np.sqrt(2**i), np.arange(2**i)]) for i in range(2, 20)},
    argument_name="array size")

This is more interesting. Again numba and the calculate function perform great, however this is actually triggering the worst case of searchsorted which really doesn't work well in this case.

Comparison of the functions when no value satisfies the condition

Another interesting point is how these function behave if there is no value whose index should be returned:

arr = np.ones(100)
value = 2

for func in funcs:
    print(func.__name__)
    try:
        print('-->', func(value, arr))
    except Exception as e:
        print('-->', e)

With this result:

first_index_using_argmax
--> 0
first_index_using_min
--> zero-size array to reduction operation minimum which has no identity
first_index_using_nonzero
--> index 0 is out of bounds for axis 0 with size 0
first_index_calculate_range_like
--> no value greater than 2
first_index_numba
--> -1
first_index_using_searchsorted
--> 101
first_index_using_where
--> index 0 is out of bounds for axis 0 with size 0

Searchsorted, argmax, and numba simply return a wrong value. However searchsorted and numba return an index that is not a valid index for the array.

The functions where, min, nonzero and calculate throw an exception. However only the exception for calculate actually says anything helpful.

That means one actually has to wrap these calls in an appropriate wrapper function that catches exceptions or invalid return values and handle appropriately, at least if you aren't sure if the value could be in the array.

Note: The calculate and searchsorted options only work in special conditions. The "calculate" function requires a constant step and the searchsorted requires the array to be sorted. So these could be useful in the right circumstances but aren't general solutions for this problem. In case you're dealing with sorted Python lists you might want to take a look at the bisect module instead of using Numpys searchsorted.

Python PIP Install throws TypeError: unsupported operand type(s) for -=: 'Retry' and 'int'

Bizarrely if I remove the proxy from the environment and add it to the command line it works for me. For example to upgrade pip itself:

env http_proxy= https_proxy= pip install pip --upgrade --proxy 'http://proxy-url:80'

My issue was having the proxy in the environment. It seems that pip only honors the one in argument.

how to print json data in console.log

If you just want to print object then

console.log(JSON.stringify(data)); //this will convert json to string;

If you want to access value of field in object then use

console.log(data.input_data);

How to convert string to boolean php

In PHP you simply can convert a value to a boolean by using double not operator (!!):

var_dump(!! true);     // true
var_dump(!! "Hello");  // true
var_dump(!! 1);        // true
var_dump(!! [1, 2]);   // true
var_dump(!! false);    // false
var_dump(!! null);     // false
var_dump(!! []);       // false
var_dump(!! 0);        // false
var_dump(!! '');       // false

Fast way to discover the row count of a table in PostgreSQL

In Oracle, you could use rownum to limit the number of rows returned. I am guessing similar construct exists in other SQLs as well. So, for the example you gave, you could limit the number of rows returned to 500001 and apply a count(*) then:

SELECT (case when cnt > 500000 then 500000 else cnt end) myCnt
FROM (SELECT count(*) cnt FROM table WHERE rownum<=500001)

How to JOIN three tables in Codeigniter

Use this code in model

public function funcname($id)
{
    $this->db->select('*');
    $this->db->from('Album a'); 
    $this->db->join('Category b', 'b.cat_id=a.cat_id', 'left');
    $this->db->join('Soundtrack c', 'c.album_id=a.album_id', 'left');
    $this->db->where('c.album_id',$id);
    $this->db->order_by('c.track_title','asc');         
    $query = $this->db->get(); 
    if($query->num_rows() != 0)
    {
        return $query->result_array();
    }
    else
    {
        return false;
    }
}

How can I select rows with most recent timestamp for each key value?

For the sake of completeness, here's another possible solution:

SELECT sensorID,timestamp,sensorField1,sensorField2 
FROM sensorTable s1
WHERE timestamp = (SELECT MAX(timestamp) FROM sensorTable s2 WHERE s1.sensorID = s2.sensorID)
ORDER BY sensorID, timestamp;

Pretty self-explaining I think, but here's more info if you wish, as well as other examples. It's from the MySQL manual, but above query works with every RDBMS (implementing the sql'92 standard).

How I can get web page's content and save it into the string variable

Webclient client = new Webclient();
string content = client.DownloadString(url);

Pass the URL of page who you want to get. You can parse the result using htmlagilitypack.

Using logging in multiple modules

Throwing in another solution.

In my module's init.py I have something like:

# mymodule/__init__.py
import logging

def get_module_logger(mod_name):
  logger = logging.getLogger(mod_name)
  handler = logging.StreamHandler()
  formatter = logging.Formatter(
        '%(asctime)s %(name)-12s %(levelname)-8s %(message)s')
  handler.setFormatter(formatter)
  logger.addHandler(handler)
  logger.setLevel(logging.DEBUG)
  return logger

Then in each module I need a logger, I do:

# mymodule/foo.py
from [modname] import get_module_logger
logger = get_module_logger(__name__)

When the logs are missed, you can differentiate their source by the module they came from.

Using Python's ftplib to get a directory listing, portably

The reliable/standardized way to parse FTP directory listing is by using MLSD command, which by now should be supported by all recent/decent FTP servers.

import ftplib
f = ftplib.FTP()
f.connect("localhost")
f.login()
ls = []
f.retrlines('MLSD', ls.append)
for entry in ls:
    print entry

The code above will print:

modify=20110723201710;perm=el;size=4096;type=dir;unique=807g4e5a5; tests
modify=20111206092323;perm=el;size=4096;type=dir;unique=807g1008e0; .xchat2
modify=20111022125631;perm=el;size=4096;type=dir;unique=807g10001a; .gconfd
modify=20110808185618;perm=el;size=4096;type=dir;unique=807g160f9a; .skychart
...

Starting from python 3.3, ftplib will provide a specific method to do this:

Change URL parameters

I think you want the query plugin.

E.g.:

window.location.search = jQuery.query.set("rows", 10);

This will work regardless of the current state of rows.

use jQuery's find() on JSON object

This works for me on [{"id":"data"},{"id":"data"}]

function getObjects(obj, key, val) 
{
    var newObj = false; 
    $.each(obj, function()
    {
        var testObject = this; 
        $.each(testObject, function(k,v)
        {
            //alert(k);
            if(val == v && k == key)
            {
                newObj = testObject;
            }
        });
    });

    return newObj;
}

nvarchar(max) vs NText

The biggest disadvantage of Text (together with NText and Image) is that it will be removed in a future version of SQL Server, as by the documentation. That will effectively make your schema harder to upgrade when that version of SQL Server will be released.

How do I install PyCrypto on Windows?

If you don't already have a C/C++ development environment installed that is compatible with the Visual Studio binaries distributed by Python.org, then you should stick to installing only pure Python packages or packages for which a Windows binary is available.

Fortunately, there are PyCrypto binaries available for Windows: http://www.voidspace.org.uk/python/modules.shtml#pycrypto

UPDATE:
As @Udi suggests in the comment below, the following command also installs pycrypto and can be used in virtualenv as well:

easy_install http://www.voidspace.org.uk/python/pycrypto-2.6.1/pycrypto-2.6.1.win32-py2.7.exe

Notice to choose the relevant link for your setup from this list

Sorting A ListView By Column

My solution is a class to sort listView items when you click on column header.

You can specify the type of each column.

listView.ListViewItemSorter = new ListViewColumnSorter();
listView.ListViewItemSorter.ColumnsTypeComparer.Add(0, DateTime);
listView.ListViewItemSorter.ColumnsTypeComparer.Add(1, int);

That's it !

Maven: The packaging for this project did not assign a file to the build artifact

I have seen this error occur when the plugins that are needed are not specifically mentioned in the pom. So

mvn clean install

will give the exception if this is not added:

    <plugin>
        <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
        <artifactId>maven-install-plugin</artifactId>
        <version>2.5.2</version>
 </plugin>

Likewise,

mvn clean install deploy

will fail on the same exception if something like this is not added:

<plugin>
   <artifactId>maven-deploy-plugin</artifactId>
   <version>2.8.1</version>
   <executions>
      <execution>
         <id>default-deploy</id>
         <phase>deploy</phase>
         <goals>
            <goal>deploy</goal>
         </goals>
      </execution>
   </executions>
</plugin>

It makes sense, but a clearer error message would be welcome

Change DataGrid cell colour based on values

Just put instead

<Style TargetType="{x:DataGridCell}" >

But beware that this will target ALL your cells (you're aiming at all the objects of type DataGridCell ) If you want to put a style according to the cell type, I'd recommend you to use a DataTemplateSelector

A good example can be found in Christian Mosers' DataGrid tutorial:

http://www.wpftutorial.net/DataGrid.html#rowDetails

Have fun :)

Plotting images side by side using matplotlib

The problem you face is that you try to assign the return of imshow (which is an matplotlib.image.AxesImage to an existing axes object.

The correct way of plotting image data to the different axes in axarr would be

f, axarr = plt.subplots(2,2)
axarr[0,0].imshow(image_datas[0])
axarr[0,1].imshow(image_datas[1])
axarr[1,0].imshow(image_datas[2])
axarr[1,1].imshow(image_datas[3])

The concept is the same for all subplots, and in most cases the axes instance provide the same methods than the pyplot (plt) interface. E.g. if ax is one of your subplot axes, for plotting a normal line plot you'd use ax.plot(..) instead of plt.plot(). This can actually be found exactly in the source from the page you link to.

HTML+CSS: How to force div contents to stay in one line?

Your HTML code: <div>Stack Overflow is the BEST !!!</div>

CSS:

div {

Understanding the Linux oom-killer's logs

This webpage have an explanation and a solution.

The solution is:

To fix this problem the behavior of the kernel has to be changed, so it will no longer overcommit the memory for application requests. Finally I have included those mentioned values into the /etc/sysctl.conf file, so they get automatically applied on start-up:

vm.overcommit_memory = 2

vm.overcommit_ratio = 80

Per some of the comments, it's important to note that you may want to escape the variable if there is potential for malicious content (e.g. the variable comes from user input)

ES6 Update

In 2019, this would usually be written using a template string, and the above code has been updated. The original answer was:

var regex = new RegExp("ReGeX" + testVar + "ReGeX");
...
string.replace(regex, "replacement");

Setting a spinner onClickListener() in Android

Personally, I use that:

    final Spinner spinner = (Spinner) (view.findViewById(R.id.userList));
    spinner.setOnItemSelectedListener(new AdapterView.OnItemSelectedListener() {
        @Override
        public void onItemSelected(AdapterView<?> parent, View view, int position, long id) {                

            userSelectedIndex = position;
        }

        @Override
        public void onNothingSelected(AdapterView<?> parent) {
        }
    });

Sys is undefined

In my case the problem was that I had putted the following code to keep the gridview tableheader after partial postback:

    protected override void OnPreRenderComplete(EventArgs e)
    {
        if (grv.Rows.Count > 0)
        {
            grv.HeaderRow.TableSection = TableRowSection.TableHeader;
        }
    }

Removing this code stopped the issue.

ASP.NET GridView RowIndex As CommandArgument

I think this will work.

<gridview>
<Columns>

            <asp:ButtonField  ButtonType="Button" CommandName="Edit" Text="Edit" Visible="True" CommandArgument="<%# Container.DataItemIndex %>" />
        </Columns>
</gridview>

White spaces are required between publicId and systemId

Change the order of statments. For me, changing the block of code

xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans 
                    http://www.springframework.org/schema/context
                    http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans/spring-beans.xsd"

with

xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans 
                    http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans/spring-beans.xsd
                    http://www.springframework.org/schema/context"

is valid.

Copy values from one column to another in the same table

you can do it with Procedure also so i have a procedure for this

 DELIMITER $$
 CREATE PROCEDURE copyTo()
       BEGIN
               DECLARE x  INT;
            DECLARE str varchar(45);
              SET x = 1;
            set str = '';
              WHILE x < 5 DO
                set  str = (select source_col from emp where id=x);
            update emp set target_col =str where id=x;      
            SET  x = x + 1;
                END WHILE;

       END$$
   DELIMITER ;

How to check if a String contains any of some strings

Here's a LINQ solution which is virtually the same but more scalable:

new[] { "a", "b", "c" }.Any(c => s.Contains(c))

Two submit buttons in one form

You can present the buttons like this:

<input type="submit" name="typeBtn" value="BUY">
<input type="submit" name="typeBtn" value="SELL">

And then in the code you can get the value using:

if request.method == 'POST':
    #valUnits = request.POST.get('unitsInput','')
    #valPrice = request.POST.get('priceInput','')
    valType = request.POST.get('typeBtn','')

(valUnits and valPrice are some other values I extract from the form that I left in for illustration)

Javascript - validation, numbers only

This one worked for me :

function validateForm(){

  var z = document.forms["myForm"]["num"].value;

  if(!/^[0-9]+$/.test(z)){
    alert("Please only enter numeric characters only for your Age! (Allowed input:0-9)")
  }

}

Are one-line 'if'/'for'-statements good Python style?

Well,

Is this an improvement? No. You could even add more statements to the body of the if-clause by separating them with a semicolon. I recommend against that though.

ESLint not working in VS Code?

There are a few reasons that ESLint may not be giving you feedback. ESLint is going to look for your configuration file first in your project and if it can't find a .eslintrc.json there it will look for a global configuration. Personally, I only install ESLint in each project and create a configuration based off of each project.

The second reason why you aren't getting feedback is that to get the feedback you have to define your linting rules in the .eslintrc.json. If there are no rules there, or you have no plugins installed then you have to define them.

Center the nav in Twitter Bootstrap

Possible duplicate of Modify twitter bootstrap navbar. I guess this is what you are looking for (copied):

.navbar .nav,
.navbar .nav > li {
  float:none;

  *zoom:1; /* hasLayout ie7 trigger */
  vertical-align: top;
}

.navbar-inner {

}

As stated in the linked answer, you should make a new class with these properties and add it to the nav div.

How to assign string to bytes array

Safe and simple:

[]byte("Here is a string....")

Convert a Python int into a big-endian string of bytes

In Python 3.2+, you can use int.to_bytes:

If you don't want to specify the size

>>> n = 1245427
>>> n.to_bytes((n.bit_length() + 7) // 8, 'big') or b'\0'
b'\x13\x00\xf3'

If you don't mind specifying the size

>>> (1245427).to_bytes(3, byteorder='big')
b'\x13\x00\xf3'

sudo: npm: command not found

WARNING (edit)

Doing a chmod 777 is a fairly radical solution. Try these first, one at a time, and stop when one works:

$ sudo chmod -R 777 /usr/local/lib/node_modules/npm
$ sudo chmod -R 777 /usr/local/lib/node_modules
$ sudo chmod g+w /usr/local/lib
$ sudo chmod g+rwx /usr/local/lib

$ brew postinstall node is the only install part where I would get a problem

Permission denied - /usr/local/lib/node_modules/npm/.github

So I

// !! READ EDIT ABOVE BEFORE RUNNING THIS CODE !!
$ sudo chmod -R 777 /usr/local/lib
$ brew postinstall node

and viola, npm is now linked

$ npm -v
3.10.10

Extra

If you used -R 777 on lib my recommendation would be to set nested files and directories to a default setting:

$ find /usr/local/lib -type f -print -exec chmod 644 {} \;
$ find /usr/local/lib -type d -print -exec chmod 755 {} \;
$ chmod /usr/local/lib 755

What's the difference between Instant and LocalDateTime?

You are wrong about LocalDateTime: it does not store any time-zone information and it has nanosecond precision. Quoting the Javadoc (emphasis mine):

A date-time without a time-zone in the ISO-8601 calendar system, such as 2007-12-03T10:15:30.

LocalDateTime is an immutable date-time object that represents a date-time, often viewed as year-month-day-hour-minute-second. Other date and time fields, such as day-of-year, day-of-week and week-of-year, can also be accessed. Time is represented to nanosecond precision. For example, the value "2nd October 2007 at 13:45.30.123456789" can be stored in a LocalDateTime.

The difference between the two is that Instant represents an offset from the Epoch (01-01-1970) and, as such, represents a particular instant on the time-line. Two Instant objects created at the same moment in two different places of the Earth will have exactly the same value.

When use ResponseEntity<T> and @RestController for Spring RESTful applications

To complete the answer from Sotorios Delimanolis.

It's true that ResponseEntity gives you more flexibility but in most cases you won't need it and you'll end up with these ResponseEntity everywhere in your controller thus making it difficult to read and understand.

If you want to handle special cases like errors (Not Found, Conflict, etc.), you can add a HandlerExceptionResolver to your Spring configuration. So in your code, you just throw a specific exception (NotFoundException for instance) and decide what to do in your Handler (setting the HTTP status to 404), making the Controller code more clear.

DELETE_FAILED_INTERNAL_ERROR Error while Installing APK

I also had the same problem, I tried the solution to disable the instant run, but you can not use the instant run, which for me is harmful, because it is an extremely useful tool.

I found another solution, which is to delete the "build" folder and re-run the project, and the error disappears, the app is executed and I can use the instant run.

CSS performance relative to translateZ(0)

On mobile devices sending everything to the GPU will cause a memory overload and crash the application. I encountered this on an iPad app in Cordova. Best to only send the required items to the GPU, the divs that you're specifically moving around.

Better yet, use the 3d ~~transitions~~ transforms to do the animations like translateX(50px) as opposed to left:50px;

No numeric types to aggregate - change in groupby() behaviour?

How are you generating your data?

See how the output shows that your data is of 'object' type? the groupby operations specifically check whether each column is a numeric dtype first.

In [31]: data
Out[31]: 
<class 'pandas.core.frame.DataFrame'>
DatetimeIndex: 2557 entries, 2004-01-01 00:00:00 to 2010-12-31 00:00:00
Freq: <1 DateOffset>
Columns: 360 entries, -89.75 to 89.75
dtypes: object(360)

look ?

Did you initialize an empty DataFrame first and then filled it? If so that's probably why it changed with the new version as before 0.9 empty DataFrames were initialized to float type but now they are of object type. If so you can change the initialization to DataFrame(dtype=float).

You can also call frame.astype(float)

How can I get jQuery to perform a synchronous, rather than asynchronous, Ajax request?

Because XMLHttpReponse synchronous operation is deprecated I came up with the following solution that wraps XMLHttpRequest. This allows ordered AJAX queries while still being asycnronous in nature, which is very useful for single use CSRF tokens.

It is also transparent so libraries such as jQuery will operate seamlessly.

/* wrap XMLHttpRequest for synchronous operation */
var XHRQueue = [];
var _XMLHttpRequest = XMLHttpRequest;
XMLHttpRequest = function()
{
  var xhr   = new _XMLHttpRequest();
  var _send = xhr.send;

  xhr.send = function()
  {
    /* queue the request, and if it's the first, process it */
    XHRQueue.push([this, arguments]);
    if (XHRQueue.length == 1)
      this.processQueue();
  };

  xhr.processQueue = function()
  {
    var call = XHRQueue[0];
    var xhr  = call[0];
    var args = call[1];

    /* you could also set a CSRF token header here */

    /* send the request */
    _send.apply(xhr, args);
  };

  xhr.addEventListener('load', function(e)
  {
    /* you could also retrieve a CSRF token header here */

    /* remove the completed request and if there is more, trigger the next */
    XHRQueue.shift();
    if (XHRQueue.length)
      this.processQueue();
  });

  return xhr;
};

What are the differences between 'call-template' and 'apply-templates' in XSL?

<xsl:call-template> is a close equivalent to calling a function in a traditional programming language.

You can define functions in XSLT, like this simple one that outputs a string.

<xsl:template name="dosomething">
  <xsl:text>A function that does something</xsl:text>
</xsl:template>

This function can be called via <xsl:call-template name="dosomething">.

<xsl:apply-templates> is a little different and in it is the real power of XSLT: It takes any number of XML nodes (whatever you define in the select attribute), iterates them (this is important: apply-templates works like a loop!) and finds matching templates for them:

<!-- sample XML snippet -->
<xml>
  <foo /><bar /><baz />
</xml>

<!-- sample XSLT snippet -->
<xsl:template match="xml">
  <xsl:apply-templates select="*" /> <!-- three nodes selected here -->
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="foo"> <!-- will be called once -->
  <xsl:text>foo element encountered</xsl:text>
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="*"> <!-- will be called twice -->
  <xsl:text>other element countered</xsl:text>
</xsl:template>

This way you give up a little control to the XSLT processor - not you decide where the program flow goes, but the processor does by finding the most appropriate match for the node it's currently processing.

If multiple templates can match a node, the one with the more specific match expression wins. If more than one matching template with the same specificity exist, the one declared last wins.

You can concentrate more on developing templates and need less time to do "plumbing". Your programs will become more powerful and modularized, less deeply nested and faster (as XSLT processors are optimized for template matching).

A concept to understand with XSLT is that of the "current node". With <xsl:apply-templates> the current node moves on with every iteration, whereas <xsl:call-template> does not change the current node. I.e. the . within a called template refers to the same node as the . in the calling template. This is not the case with apply-templates.

This is the basic difference. There are some other aspects of templates that affect their behavior: Their mode and priority, the fact that templates can have both a name and a match. It also has an impact whether the template has been imported (<xsl:import>) or not. These are advanced uses and you can deal with them when you get there.

What is String pool in Java?

Let's start with a quote from the virtual machine spec:

Loading of a class or interface that contains a String literal may create a new String object (§2.4.8) to represent that literal. This may not occur if the a String object has already been created to represent a previous occurrence of that literal, or if the String.intern method has been invoked on a String object representing the same string as the literal.

This may not occur - This is a hint, that there's something special about String objects. Usually, invoking a constructor will always create a new instance of the class. This is not the case with Strings, especially when String objects are 'created' with literals. Those Strings are stored in a global store (pool) - or at least the references are kept in a pool, and whenever a new instance of an already known Strings is needed, the vm returns a reference to the object from the pool. In pseudo code, it may go like that:

1: a := "one" 
   --> if(pool[hash("one")] == null)  // true
           pool[hash("one") --> "one"]
       return pool[hash("one")]

2: b := "one" 
  --> if(pool[hash("one")] == null)   // false, "one" already in pool
        pool[hash("one") --> "one"]
      return pool[hash("one")]

So in this case, variables a and b hold references to the same object. IN this case, we have (a == b) && (a.equals(b)) == true.

This is not the case if we use the constructor:

1: a := "one"
2: b := new String("one")

Again, "one" is created on the pool but then we create a new instance from the same literal, and in this case, it leads to (a == b) && (a.equals(b)) == false

So why do we have a String pool? Strings and especially String literals are widely used in typical Java code. And they are immutable. And being immutable allowed to cache String to save memory and increase performance (less effort for creation, less garbage to be collected).

As programmers we don't have to care much about the String pool, as long as we keep in mind:

(a == b) && (a.equals(b)) may be true or false (always use equals to compare Strings)
Don't use reflection to change the backing char[] of a String (as you don't know who is actualling using that String)

Bash ignoring error for a particular command

Instead of "returning true", you can also use the "noop" or null utility (as referred in the POSIX specs) : and just "do nothing". You'll save a few letters. :)

Force drop mysql bypassing foreign key constraint

Simple solution to drop all the table at once from terminal.

This involved few steps inside your mysql shell (not a one step solution though), this worked me and saved my day.

Worked for Server version: 5.6.38 MySQL Community Server (GPL)

Steps I followed:

 1. generate drop query using concat and group_concat.
 2. use database
 3. turn off / disable foreign key constraint check (SET FOREIGN_KEY_CHECKS = 0;), 
 4. copy the query generated from step 1
 5. re enable foreign key constraint check (SET FOREIGN_KEY_CHECKS = 1;)
 6. run show table

Python - Join with newline

The console is printing the representation, not the string itself.

If you prefix with print, you'll get what you expect.

See this question for details about the difference between a string and the string's representation. Super-simplified, the representation is what you'd type in source code to get that string.

How to move all HTML element children to another parent using JavaScript?

Here's a simple function:

function setParent(el, newParent)
{
    newParent.appendChild(el);
}

el's childNodes are the elements to be moved, newParent is the element el will be moved to, so you would execute the function like:

var l = document.getElementById('old-parent').childNodes.length;
var a = document.getElementById('old-parent');
var b = document.getElementById('new-parent');
for (var i = l; i >= 0; i--)
{
    setParent(a.childNodes[0], b);
}

Here is the Demo

How to write data with FileOutputStream without losing old data?

Use the constructor for appending material to the file:

FileOutputStream(File file, boolean append)
Creates a file output stream to write to the file represented by the specified File object.

So to append to a file say "abc.txt" use

FileOutputStream fos=new FileOutputStream(new File("abc.txt"),true);

WordPress: get author info from post id

I figured it out.

<?php $author_id=$post->post_author; ?>
<img src="<?php the_author_meta( 'avatar' , $author_id ); ?> " width="140" height="140" class="avatar" alt="<?php echo the_author_meta( 'display_name' , $author_id ); ?>" />
<?php the_author_meta( 'user_nicename' , $author_id ); ?>

Why does this SQL code give error 1066 (Not unique table/alias: 'user')?

You have mentioned "user" twice in your FROM clause. You must provide a table alias to at least one mention so each mention of user. can be pinned to one or the other instance:

FROM article INNER JOIN section
ON article.section_id = section.id
INNER JOIN category ON article.category_id = category.id
INNER JOIN user **AS user1** ON article.author\_id = **user1**.id
LEFT JOIN user **AS user2** ON article.modified\_by = **user2**.id
WHERE article.id = '1'

(You may need something different - I guessed which user is which, but the SQL engine won't guess.)

Also, maybe you only needed one "user". Who knows?

How to determine equality for two JavaScript objects?

Sure, while we're at it I'll throw in my own reinvention of the wheel (I'm proud of the number of spokes and materials used):

////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

    var result = false,
        keysA,
        keysB;

    // Check if they are pointing at the same variable. If they are, no need to test further.
    if ( objectA === objectB ) {
        return true;
    }

    // Check if they are the same type. If they are not, no need to test further.
    if ( typeof objectA !== typeof objectB ) {
        return false;
    }

    // Check what kind of variables they are to see what sort of comparison we should make.
    if ( typeof objectA === "object" ) {

It returns false as quickly as possible, but of course for a large object where the difference is deeply nested it could be less effective. In my own scenario, good handling of nested arrays is important.

Hope it helps someone needing this kind of 'wheel'.

jQuery adding 2 numbers from input fields

Ok so your code actually works but what you need to do is replace a and b in your click function with the jquery notation you used before the click. This will ensure you have the correct and most up to date values. so changing your click function to this should work:

$("submit").on("click", function(){
    var sum = $("#a").val().match(/\d+/) + $("#b").val().match(/\d+/);
    alert(sum);         
})

or inlined to:

$("submit").on("click", function(){
    alert($("#a").val().match(/\d+/) + $("#b").val().match(/\d+/));         
})

Pandas - replacing column values

You can also try using apply with get method of dictionary, seems to be little faster than replace:

data['sex'] = data['sex'].apply({1:'Male', 0:'Female'}.get)

Testing with timeit:

%%timeit
data['sex'].replace([0,1],['Female','Male'],inplace=True)

Result:

The slowest run took 5.83 times longer than the fastest. This could mean that an intermediate result is being cached.
1000 loops, best of 3: 510 µs per loop

Using apply:

%%timeit
data['sex'] = data['sex'].apply({1:'Male', 0:'Female'}.get)

Result:

The slowest run took 5.92 times longer than the fastest. This could mean that an intermediate result is being cached.
1000 loops, best of 3: 331 µs per loop

Note: apply with dictionary should be used if all the possible values of the columns in the dataframe are defined in the dictionary else, it will have empty for those not defined in dictionary.

How can I select from list of values in SQL Server

Another way that you can use is a query like this:

SELECT DISTINCT
    LTRIM(m.n.value('.[1]','varchar(8000)')) as columnName
FROM 
    (SELECT CAST('<XMLRoot><RowData>' + REPLACE(t.val,',','</RowData><RowData>') + '</RowData></XMLRoot>' AS XML) AS x
     FROM (SELECT '1, 1, 1, 2, 5, 1, 6') AS t(val)
    ) dt
  CROSS APPLY 
    x.nodes('/XMLRoot/RowData') m(n);

Log4j, configuring a Web App to use a relative path

Doesn't log4j just use the application root directory if you don't specify a root directory in your FileAppender's path property? So you should just be able to use:

log4j.appender.file.File=logs/MyLog.log

It's been awhile since I've done Java web development, but this seems to be the most intuitive, and also doesn't collide with other unfortunately named logs writing to the ${catalina.home}/logs directory.

How to get ELMAH to work with ASP.NET MVC [HandleError] attribute?

I'm new in ASP.NET MVC. I faced the same problem, the following is my workable in my Erorr.vbhtml (it work if you only need to log the error using Elmah log)

@ModelType System.Web.Mvc.HandleErrorInfo

    @Code
        ViewData("Title") = "Error"
        Dim item As HandleErrorInfo = CType(Model, HandleErrorInfo)
        //To log error with Elmah
        Elmah.ErrorLog.GetDefault(HttpContext.Current).Log(New Elmah.Error(Model.Exception, HttpContext.Current))
    End Code

<h2>
    Sorry, an error occurred while processing your request.<br />

    @item.ActionName<br />
    @item.ControllerName<br />
    @item.Exception.Message
</h2>

It is simply!

Easy login script without database

I would use a two file setup like this:

index.php

<?php 
session_start(); 

define('DS',  TRUE); // used to protect includes
define('USERNAME', $_SESSION['username']);
define('SELF',  $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'] );

if (!USERNAME or isset($_GET['logout']))
 include('login.php');

// everything below will show after correct login 
?>

<?php defined('DS') OR die('No direct access allowed.');

$users = array(
 "user" => "userpass"
);

if(isset($_GET['logout'])) {
    $_SESSION['username'] = '';
    header('Location:  ' . $_SERVER['PHP_SELF']);
}

if(isset($_POST['username'])) {
    if($users[$_POST['username']] !== NULL && $users[$_POST['username']] == $_POST['password']) {
  $_SESSION['username'] = $_POST['username'];
  header('Location:  ' . $_SERVER['PHP_SELF']);
    }else {
        //invalid login
  echo "<p>error logging in</p>";
    }
}

echo '<form method="post" action="'.SELF.'">
  <h2>Login</h2>
  <p><label for="username">Username</label> <input type="text" id="username" name="username" value="" /></p>
  <p><label for="password">Password</label> <input type="password" id="password" name="password" value="" /></p>
  <p><input type="submit" name="submit" value="Login" class="button"/></p>
  </form>';
exit; 
?>

What causes imported Maven project in Eclipse to use Java 1.5 instead of Java 1.6 by default and how can I ensure it doesn't?

Here is the root cause of java 1.5:

Also note that at present the default source setting is 1.5 and the default target setting is 1.5, independently of the JDK you run Maven with. If you want to change these defaults, you should set source and target.

Reference : Apache Mavem Compiler Plugin

Following are the details:

Plain pom.xml

    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
    <project xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0"

    <groupId>com.pluralsight</groupId>
    <artifactId>spring_sample</artifactId>
    <version>1.0-SNAPSHOT</version>

</project>

Following plugin is taken from an expanded POM version(Effective POM),

This can be get by this command from the command line C:\mvn help:effective-pom I just put here a small snippet instead of an entire pom.

    <plugin>
    <artifactId>maven-compiler-plugin</artifactId>
    <version>3.1</version>

Even here you don't see where is the java version defined, lets dig more...

Download the plugin, Apache Maven Compiler Plugin » 3.1 as its available in jar and open it in any file compression tool like 7-zip

Traverse the jar and findout

plugin.xml

file inside folder

Good luck.

SonarQube not picking up Unit Test Coverage

Based on https://github.com/SonarSource/sonar-examples/blob/master/projects/tycho/pom.xml, the following POM works for me:

<properties>
    <sonar.core.codeCoveragePlugin>jacoco</sonar.core.codeCoveragePlugin>
    <sonar.dynamicAnalysis>reuseReports</sonar.dynamicAnalysis>
    <sonar.jacoco.reportPath>${project.basedir}/../target/jacoco.exec</sonar.jacoco.reportPath>
</properties>
<build>
    <plugins>
        <plugin>
            <groupId>org.jacoco</groupId>
            <artifactId>jacoco-maven-plugin</artifactId>
            <version>0.7.0.201403182114</version>
            <executions>
                <execution>
                    <goals>
                        <goal>prepare-agent</goal>
                    </goals>
                </execution>
            </executions>
            <configuration>
                <destFile>${sonar.jacoco.reportPath}</destFile>
            </configuration>
        </plugin>
    </plugins>
</build>

Setting the destination file to the report path ensures that Sonar reads exactly the file JaCoCo generates.
The report path should be outside the projects' directories to take cross-project coverage into account (e.g. in case of Tycho where the convention is to have separate projects for tests).
The reuseReports setting prevents the deletion of the JaCoCo report file before it is read! (Since 4.3, this is the default and is deprecated.)

Then I just run

mvn clean install
mvn sonar:sonar

How to make inactive content inside a div?

div[disabled]
{
  pointer-events: none;
  opacity: 0.7;
}

The above code makes the contents of the div disabled. You can make div disabled by adding disabled attribute.

<div disabled>
  /* Contents */
</div>

Webpack "OTS parsing error" loading fonts

As with @user3006381 above, my issue was not just relative URLs but that webpack was placing the files as if they were javascript files. Their contents were all basically:

module.exports = __webpack_public_path__ + "7410dd7fd1616d9a61625679285ff5d4.eot";

in the fonts directory instead of the real fonts and the font files were in the output folder under hash codes. To fix this, I had to change the test on my url-loader (in my case my image processor) to not load the fonts folder. I still had to set output.publicPath in webpack.config.js as @will-madden notes in his excellent answer.

How to make spring inject value into a static field

As these answers are old, I found this alternative. It is very clean and works with just java annotations:

To fix it, create a “none static setter” to assign the injected value for the static variable. For example :

import org.springframework.beans.factory.annotation.Value;
import org.springframework.stereotype.Component;

@Component
public class GlobalValue {

public static String DATABASE;

@Value("${mongodb.db}")
public void setDatabase(String db) {
    DATABASE = db;
}
}

Multiple conditions in WHILE loop

Your condition is wrong. myChar != 'n' || myChar != 'N' will always be true.

Use myChar != 'n' && myChar != 'N' instead

Microsoft Azure: How to create sub directory in a blob container

There is a comment by @afr0 asking how to filter on folders..

There is two ways using the GetDirectoryReference or looping through a containers blobs and checking the type. The code below is in C#

CloudBlobContainer container = blobClient.GetContainerReference("photos");

//Method 1. grab a folder reference directly from the container
CloudBlobDirectory folder = container.GetDirectoryReference("directoryName");

//Method 2. Loop over container and grab folders.
foreach (IListBlobItem item in container.ListBlobs(null, false))
{
    if (item.GetType() == typeof(CloudBlobDirectory))
    {
        // we know this is a sub directory now
        CloudBlobDirectory subFolder = (CloudBlobDirectory)item;

        Console.WriteLine("Directory: {0}", subFolder.Uri);
    }
}

initialize a const array in a class initializer in C++

Where I've a constant array, it's always been done as static. If you can accept that, this code should compile and run.

        static const int b[2];
public:
        a(void) {
                for(int i = 0; i < 2; i++) {

How to tell if a <script> tag failed to load

This doesn't need jquery, doesn't need to load the script async, needs no timer nor to have the loaded script set a value. I've tested it in FF, Chrome, and Safari.

<script>
        function loadScript(src) {
          return new Promise(function(resolve, reject) {

            let s = window.document.createElement("SCRIPT");

            s.onload = () => resolve(s);
            s.onerror = () => reject(new Error(src));
            s.src = src;
            // don't bounce to global handler on 404.
            s.addEventListener('error', function() {});

How do I restart a service on a remote machine in Windows?

You can use mmc:

Start / Run. Type "mmc".
File / Add/Remove Snap-in... Click "Add..."
Find "Services" and click "Add"
Select "Another computer:" and type the host name / IP address of the remote machine. Click Finish, Close, etc.

At that point you will be able to manage services as if they were on your local machine.

Location for session files in Apache/PHP

I believe its in /tmp/. Check your phpinfo function though, it should say session.save_path in there somewhere.

javascript function wait until another function to finish

Following answer can help in this and other similar situations like synchronous AJAX call -

Working example

waitForMe().then(function(intentsArr){
  console.log('Finally, I can execute!!!');
},
function(err){
  console.log('This is error message.');
})

function waitForMe(){
    // Returns promise
    console.log('Inside waitForMe');
    return new Promise(function(resolve, reject){
        if(true){ // Try changing to 'false'
            setTimeout(function(){
                console.log('waitForMe\'s function succeeded');
                resolve();
            }, 2500);
        }
        else{
            setTimeout(function(){
                console.log('waitForMe\'s else block failed');
                resolve();
            }, 2500);
        }
    });

How to define constants in Visual C# like #define in C?

in c language: #define (e.g. #define counter 100)

in assembly language: equ (e.g. counter equ 100)

in c# language: according to msdn refrence: You use #define to define a symbol. When you use the symbol as the expression that's passed to the #if directive, the expression will evaluate to true, as the following example shows:

# define DEBUG

The #define directive cannot be used to declare constant values as is typically done in C and C++. Constants in C# are best defined as static members of a class or struct. If you have several such constants, consider creating a separate "Constants" class to hold them.

This original answer may not be required but can be used for backwards compatibility.

Attempting to handle this with a single regular expression (without callback) my current ability fails me for lack of a negative look-behind in Javascript... never the less here's another concise alternative that works in most general cases - accounting for any decimal point by ignoring matches where the index of the match appears after the index of a period.

How to add a response header on nginx when using proxy_pass?

As oliver writes:

add_header works as well with proxy_pass as without.

dt.rows.add(1, 1000)
dt.rows.add(2, 2000)

dt.Rows.InsertAt(dt.NewRow(), 3);

var rowPosition = 3;
dt.Rows[rowPosition][dt.Columns.IndexOf("SL")] = 3;
dt.Rows[rowPosition][dt.Columns.IndexOf("Amount")] = 3000;

How to convert a ruby hash object to JSON?

One of the numerous niceties of Ruby is the possibility to extend existing classes with your own methods. That's called "class reopening" or monkey-patching (the meaning of the latter can vary, though).

So, take a look here:

car = {:make => "bmw", :year => "2003"}
# => {:make=>"bmw", :year=>"2003"}
car.to_json
# NoMethodError: undefined method `to_json' for {:make=>"bmw", :year=>"2003"}:Hash
#   from (irb):11
#   from /usr/bin/irb:12:in `<main>'
require 'json'
# => true
car.to_json
# => "{"make":"bmw","year":"2003"}"

As you can see, requiring json has magically brought method to_json to our Hash.

How do I execute code AFTER a form has loaded?

This an old question and depends more upon when you need to start your routines. Since no one wants a null reference exception it is always best to check for null first then use as needed; that alone may save you a lot of grief.

The most common reason for this type of question is when a container or custom control type attempts to access properties initialized outside of a custom class where those properties have not yet been initialized thus potentially causing null values to populate and can even cause a null reference exceptions on object types. It means your class is running before it is fully initialized - before you have finished setting your properties etc. Another possible reason for this type of question is when to perform custom graphics.

To best answer the question about when to start executing code following the form load event is to monitor the WM_Paint message or hook directly in to the paint event itself. Why? The paint event only fires when all modules have fully loaded with respect to your form load event. Note: This.visible == true is not always true when it is set true so it is not used at all for this purpose except to hide a form.

The following is a complete example of how to start executing you code following the form load event. It is recommended that you do not unnecessarily tie up the paint message loop so we'll create an event that will start executing your code outside that loop.

using System.Windows.Forms;

namespace MyProgramStartingPlaceExample {

/// <summary>
/// Main UI form object
/// </summary>
public class Form1 : Form
{

    /// <summary>
    /// Main form load event handler
    /// </summary>
    public Form1()
    {
        // Initialize ONLY. Setup your controls and form parameters here. Custom controls should wait for "FormReady" before starting up too.
        this.Text = "My Program title before form loaded";
        // Size need to see text. lol
        this.Width = 420;

        // Setup the sub or fucntion that will handle your "start up" routine
        this.StartUpEvent += StartUPRoutine;

        // Optional: Custom control simulation startup sequence:
        // Define your class or control in variable. ie. var MyControlClass new CustomControl;
        // Setup your parameters only. ie. CustomControl.size = new size(420, 966); Do not validate during initialization wait until "FormReady" is set to avoid possible null values etc. 
        // Inside your control or class have a property and assign it as bool FormReady - do not validate anything until it is true and you'll be good! 
    }

    /// <summary>
    /// The main entry point for the application which sets security permissions when set.
    /// </summary>
    static void Main()
    {
        Application.EnableVisualStyles();
        Application.SetCompatibleTextRenderingDefault(false);
        Application.Run(new Form1());
    }

    // Create our event handle "StartUpEvent"
    public event StartUpHandler StartUpEvent;
    //
    // Our FormReady will only be set once just he way we intendded
    // Since it is a global variable we can poll it else where as well to determine if we should begin code execution !!
    bool FormReady;
    //
    // The WM_Paint message handler: Used mostly to paint nice things to controls and screen
    protected override void OnPaint(PaintEventArgs e)
    {
        // Check if Form is ready for our code ?
        if (FormReady == false) // Place a break point here to see the initialized version of the title on the form window
        {
            // We only want this to occur once for our purpose here.
            FormReady = true;
            //
            // Fire the start up event which then will call our "StartUPRoutine" below.
            StartUpEvent();
        }
        //
        // Always call base methods unless overriding the entire fucntion
        base.OnPaint(e);
    }
    #endregion


    #region "Your StartUp event Entry point"
    //
    // Begin executuing your code here to validate properties etc. and to run your program. Enjoy!
    // Entry point is just following the very first WM_Paint message - an ideal starting place following form load
    void StartUPRoutine()
    {
        // Replace the initialized text with the following
        this.Text = "Your Code has executed after the form's load event";
        //
        // Anyway this is the momment when the form is fully loaded and ready to go - you can also use these methods for your classes to synchronize excecution using easy modifications yet here is a good starting point. 
        // Option: Set FormReady to your controls manulaly ie. CustomControl.FormReady = true; or subscribe to the StartUpEvent event inside your class and use that as your entry point for validating and unleashing its code.
        //
        // Many options: The rest is up to you!

How do I completely remove root password

Did you try passwd -d root? Most likely, this will do what you want.

You can also manually edit /etc/shadow: (Create a backup copy. Be sure that you can log even if you mess up, for example from a rescue system.) Search for "root". Typically, the root entry looks similar to

root:$X$SK5xfLB1ZW:0:0...

There, delete the second field (everything between the first and second colon):

root::0:0...

Some systems will make you put an asterisk (*) in the password field instead of blank, where a blank field would allow no password (CentOS 8 for example)

root:*:0:0...

Save the file, and try logging in as root. It should skip the password prompt. (Like passwd -d, this is a "no password" solution. If you are really looking for a "blank password", that is "ask for a password, but accept if the user just presses Enter", look at the manpage of mkpasswd, and use mkpasswd to create the second field for the /etc/shadow.)

Codeigniter LIKE with wildcard(%)

$this->db->like() automatically adds the %s and escapes the string. So all you need is

$this->db->like('title', $query);
$res = $this->db->get('film');

ValueError: Length of values does not match length of index | Pandas DataFrame.unique()

The error comes up when you are trying to assign a list of numpy array of different length to a data frame, and it can be reproduced as follows:

A data frame of four rows:

df = pd.DataFrame({'A': [1,2,3,4]})

Now trying to assign a list/array of two elements to it:

df['B'] = [3,4]   # or df['B'] = np.array([3,4])

Both errors out:

ValueError: Length of values does not match length of index

Because the data frame has four rows but the list and array has only two elements.

Work around Solution (use with caution): convert the list/array to a pandas Series, and then when you do assignment, missing index in the Series will be filled with NaN:

df['B'] = pd.Series([3,4])

df
#   A     B
#0  1   3.0
#1  2   4.0
#2  3   NaN          # NaN because the value at index 2 and 3 doesn't exist in the Series
#3  4   NaN

For your specific problem, if you don't care about the index or the correspondence of values between columns, you can reset index for each column after dropping the duplicates:

df.apply(lambda col: col.drop_duplicates().reset_index(drop=True))

#   A     B
#0  1   1.0
#1  2   5.0
#2  7   9.0
#3  8   NaN

Why am I getting "(304) Not Modified" error on some links when using HttpWebRequest?

This is intended behavior.

When you make an HTTP request, the server normally returns code 200 OK. If you set If-Modified-Since, the server may return 304 Not modified (and the response will not have the content). This is supposed to be your cue that the page has not been modified.

The authors of the class have foolishly decided that 304 should be treated as an error and throw an exception. Now you have to clean up after them by catching the exception every time you try to use If-Modified-Since.

How to list processes attached to a shared memory segment in linux?

Skip first entry in for loop in python?

Here's my preferred choice. It doesn't require adding on much to the loop, and uses nothing but built in tools.

Go from:

for item in my_items:
  do_something(item)

to:

for i, item in enumerate(my_items):
  if i == 0:
    continue
  do_something(item)

The filename, directory name, or volume label syntax is incorrect inside batch

set myPATH="C:\Users\DEB\Downloads\10.1.1.0.4"
cd %myPATH%

The single quotes do not indicate a string, they make it starts: 'C:\ instead of C:\ so
%name% is the usual syntax for expanding a variable, the !name! syntax needs to be enabled using the command setlocal ENABLEDELAYEDEXPANSION first, or by running the command prompt with CMD /V:ON.
Don't use PATH as your name, it is a system name that contains all the locations of executable programs. If you overwrite it, random bits of your script will stop working. If you intend to change it, you need to do set PATH=%PATH%;C:\Users\DEB\Downloads\10.1.1.0.4 to keep the current PATH content, and add something to the end.

Iterate Multi-Dimensional Array with Nested Foreach Statement

You can use an extension method like this:

internal static class ArrayExt
{
    public static IEnumerable<int> Indices(this Array array, int dimension)
    {
        for (var i = array.GetLowerBound(dimension); i <= array.GetUpperBound(dimension); i++)
        {
            yield return i;
        }
    }
}

And then:

int[,] array = { { 1, 2, 3 }, { 4, 5, 6 } };
foreach (var i in array.Indices(0))
{
    foreach (var j in array.Indices(1))
    {
        Console.Write(array[i, j]);
    }

    Console.WriteLine();
}

It will be a bit slower than using for loops but probably not an issue in most cases. Not sure if it makes things more readable.

Note that c# arrays can be other than zero-based so you can use a for loop like this:

int[,] array = { { 1, 2, 3 }, { 4, 5, 6 } };
for (var i = array.GetLowerBound(0); i <= array.GetUpperBound(0); i++)
{
    for (var j= array.GetLowerBound(1); j <= array.GetUpperBound(1); j++)
    {
        Console.Write(array[i, j]);
    }

    Console.WriteLine();
}

Swift 2: Call can throw, but it is not marked with 'try' and the error is not handled

You have to catch the error just as you're already doing for your save() call and since you're handling multiple errors here, you can try multiple calls sequentially in a single do-catch block, like so:

func deleteAccountDetail() {
    let entityDescription = NSEntityDescription.entityForName("AccountDetail", inManagedObjectContext: Context!)
    let request = NSFetchRequest()
    request.entity = entityDescription

    do {
        let fetchedEntities = try self.Context!.executeFetchRequest(request) as! [AccountDetail]

        for entity in fetchedEntities {
            self.Context!.deleteObject(entity)
        }

        try self.Context!.save()
    } catch {
        print(error)
    }
}

Or as @bames53 pointed out in the comments below, it is often better practice not to catch the error where it was thrown. You can mark the method as throws then try to call the method. For example:

func deleteAccountDetail() throws {
    let entityDescription = NSEntityDescription.entityForName("AccountDetail", inManagedObjectContext: Context!)
    let request = NSFetchRequest()

    request.entity = entityDescription

    let fetchedEntities = try Context.executeFetchRequest(request) as! [AccountDetail]

    for entity in fetchedEntities {
        self.Context!.deleteObject(entity)
    }

    try self.Context!.save()
}

How to call a function after delay in Kotlin?

Many Ways

1. Using `Handler` class

Handler().postDelayed({
    TODO("Do something")
    }, 2000)

2. Using `Timer` class

Timer().schedule(object : TimerTask() {
    override fun run() {
        TODO("Do something")
    }
}, 2000)

// Shorter

Timer().schedule(timerTask {
    TODO("Do something")
}, 2000)


// Shortest

Timer().schedule(2000) {
    TODO("Do something")
}

3. Using `Executors` class

Executors.newSingleThreadScheduledExecutor().schedule({
    TODO("Do something")
}, 2, TimeUnit.SECONDS)

adding to window.onload event?

If you are using jQuery, you don't have to do anything special. Handlers added via $(document).ready() don't overwrite each other, but rather execute in turn:

$(document).ready(func1)
...
$(document).ready(func2)

If you are not using jQuery, you could use addEventListener, as demonstrated by Karaxuna, plus attachEvent for IE<9.

Note that onload is not equivalent to $(document).ready() - the former waits for CSS, images... as well, while the latter waits for the DOM tree only. Modern browsers (and IE since IE9) support the DOMContentLoaded event on the document, which corresponds to the jQuery ready event, but IE<9 does not.

if(window.addEventListener){
  window.addEventListener('load', func1)
}else{
  window.attachEvent('onload', func1)
}
...
if(window.addEventListener){
  window.addEventListener('load', func2)
}else{
  window.attachEvent('onload', func2)
}

If neither option is available (for example, you are not dealing with DOM nodes), you can still do this (I am using onload as an example, but other options are available for onload):

var oldOnload1=window.onload;
window.onload=function(){
  oldOnload1 && oldOnload1();
  func1();
}
...
var oldOnload2=window.onload;
window.onload=function(){
  oldOnload2 && oldOnload2();
  func2();
}

or, to avoid polluting the global namespace (and likely encountering namespace collisions), using the import/export IIFE pattern:

window.onload=(function(oldLoad){
  return function(){
    oldLoad && oldLoad();
    func1();
  }
})(window.onload)
...
window.onload=(function(oldLoad){
  return function(){
    oldLoad && oldLoad();
    func2();
  }
})(window.onload)

How do I change the JAVA_HOME for ant?

On my Windows 7 machine setting:

JAVA_HOME="C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0_18"

didn't work. But setting:

JAVA_HOME=C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0_18

worked.

How do I enumerate the properties of a JavaScript object?

If you're trying to enumerate the properties in order to write new code against the object, I would recommend using a debugger like Firebug to see them visually.

Another handy technique is to use Prototype's Object.toJSON() to serialize the object to JSON, which will show you both property names and values.

var data = {name: 'Violet', occupation: 'character', age: 25, pets: ['frog', 'rabbit']};
Object.toJSON(data);
//-> '{"name": "Violet", "occupation": "character", "age": 25, "pets": ["frog","rabbit"]}'

convert streamed buffers to utf8-string

Single Buffer

If you have a single Buffer you can use its toString method that will convert all or part of the binary contents to a string using a specific encoding. It defaults to utf8 if you don't provide a parameter, but I've explicitly set the encoding in this example.

var req = http.request(reqOptions, function(res) {
    ...

    res.on('data', function(chunk) {
        var textChunk = chunk.toString('utf8');
        // process utf8 text chunk
    });
});

Streamed Buffers

If you have streamed buffers like in the question above where the first byte of a multi-byte UTF8-character may be contained in the first Buffer (chunk) and the second byte in the second Buffer then you should use a StringDecoder. :

var StringDecoder = require('string_decoder').StringDecoder;

var req = http.request(reqOptions, function(res) {
    ...
    var decoder = new StringDecoder('utf8');

    res.on('data', function(chunk) {
        var textChunk = decoder.write(chunk);
        // process utf8 text chunk
    });
});

This way bytes of incomplete characters are buffered by the StringDecoder until all required bytes were written to the decoder.

Python pandas: fill a dataframe row by row

This is a simpler version

import pandas as pd
df = pd.DataFrame(columns=('col1', 'col2', 'col3'))
for i in range(5):
   df.loc[i] = ['<some value for first>','<some value for second>','<some value for third>']`

How to test if a double is zero?

Yes, it's a valid test although there's an implicit conversion from int to double. For clarity/simplicity you should use (foo.x == 0.0) to test. That will hinder NAN errors/division by zero, but the double value can in some cases be very very very close to 0, but not exactly zero, and then the test will fail (I'm talking about in general now, not your code). Division by that will give huge numbers.

If this has anything to do with money, do not use float or double, instead use BigDecimal.

contenteditable change events

To avoid timers and "save" buttons, you may use blur event wich fires when the element loses focus. but to be sure that the element was actually changed (not just focused and defocused), its content should be compared against its last version. or use keydown event to set some "dirty" flag on this element.

What is http multipart request?

I have found an excellent and relatively short explanation here.

A multipart request is a REST request containing several packed REST requests inside its entity.
