Programs & Examples On #Case conversion

How can I convert a string to upper- or lower-case with XSLT?

XSLT 2.0 has upper-case() and lower-case() functions. In case of XSLT 1.0, you can use translate():

<xsl:value-of select="translate("xslt", "abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz", "ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ")" />

Converting camel case to underscore case in ruby

Receiver converted to snake case: http://rubydoc.info/gems/extlib/0.9.15/String#snake_case-instance_method

This is the Support library for DataMapper and Merb. (http://rubygems.org/gems/extlib)

def snake_case
  return downcase if match(/\A[A-Z]+\z/)
  gsub(/([A-Z]+)([A-Z][a-z])/, '\1_\2').
  gsub(/([a-z])([A-Z])/, '\1_\2').
  downcase
end

"FooBar".snake_case           #=> "foo_bar"
"HeadlineCNNNews".snake_case  #=> "headline_cnn_news"
"CNN".snake_case              #=> "cnn"

Change size of axes title and labels in ggplot2

You can change axis text and label size with arguments axis.text= and axis.title= in function theme(). If you need, for example, change only x axis title size, then use axis.title.x=.

g+theme(axis.text=element_text(size=12),
        axis.title=element_text(size=14,face="bold"))

There is good examples about setting of different theme() parameters in ggplot2 page.

explode string in jquery

What is row?

Either of these could be correct.

1) I assume that you capture your ajax response in a javascript variable 'row'. If that is the case, this would hold true.

var result=row.split('|');
    alert(result[2]);

otherwise

2) Use this where $(row) is a jQuery object.

var result=$(row).val().split('|');
    alert(result[2]);

[As mentioned in the other answer, you may have to use $(row).val() or $(row).text() or $(row).html() etc. depending on what $(row) is.]

R * not meaningful for factors ERROR

new[,2] is a factor, not a numeric vector. Transform it first

Shell script "for" loop syntax

Step the loop manually:

i=0
max=10
while [ $i -lt $max ]
do
    echo "output: $i"
    true $(( i++ ))
done

If you don’t have to be totally POSIX, you can use the arithmetic for loop:

max=10
for (( i=0; i < max; i++ )); do echo "output: $i"; done

Or use jot(1) on BSD systems:

for i in $( jot 0 10 ); do echo "output: $i"; done

Swift programmatically navigate to another view controller/scene

Swift 5

The default modal presentation style is a card. This shows the previous view controller at the top and allows the user to swipe away the presented view controller.

To retain the old style you need to modify the view controller you will be presenting like this:

newViewController.modalPresentationStyle = .fullScreen

This is the same for both programmatically created and storyboard created controllers.

Swift 3

With a programmatically created Controller

If you want to navigate to Controller created Programmatically, then do this:

let newViewController = NewViewController()
self.navigationController?.pushViewController(newViewController, animated: true)

With a StoryBoard created Controller

If you want to navigate to Controller on StoryBoard with Identifier "newViewController", then do this:

let storyBoard: UIStoryboard = UIStoryboard(name: "Main", bundle: nil)
let newViewController = storyBoard.instantiateViewController(withIdentifier: "newViewController") as! NewViewController
        self.present(newViewController, animated: true, completion: nil)

Programmatically get own phone number in iOS

Update: capability appears to have been removed by Apple on or around iOS 4


Just to expand on an earlier answer, something like this does it for me:

NSString *num = [[NSUserDefaults standardUserDefaults] stringForKey:@"SBFormattedPhoneNumber"];

Note: This retrieves the "Phone number" that was entered during the iPhone's iTunes activation and can be null or an incorrect value. It's NOT read from the SIM card.

At least that does in 2.1. There are a couple of other interesting keys in NSUserDefaults that may also not last. (This is in my app which uses a UIWebView)

WebKitJavaScriptCanOpenWindowsAutomatically
NSInterfaceStyle
TVOutStatus
WebKitDeveloperExtrasEnabledPreferenceKey

and so on.

Not sure what, if anything, the others do.

Getting values from query string in an url using AngularJS $location

Very late answer :( but for someone who is in need, this works Angular js works too :) URLSearchParams Let's have a look at how we can use this new API to get values from the location!

// Assuming "?post=1234&action=edit"

var urlParams = new URLSearchParams(window.location.search);
console.log(urlParams.has('post')); // true
console.log(urlParams.get('action')); // "edit"
console.log(urlParams.getAll('action')); // ["edit"]
console.log(urlParams.toString()); // "?post=1234&action=edit"
console.log(urlParams.append('active', '1')); // "?

post=1234&action=edit&active=1"

FYI: IE is not supported

use this function from instead of URLSearchParams

urlParam = function (name) {
    var results = new RegExp('[\?&]' + name + '=([^&#]*)')
                      .exec(window.location.search);

    return (results !== null) ? results[1] || 0 : false;
}

console.log(urlParam('action')); //edit

PHP - find entry by object property from an array of objects

class ArrayUtils
{
    public static function objArraySearch($array, $index, $value)
    {
        foreach($array as $arrayInf) {
            if($arrayInf->{$index} == $value) {
                return $arrayInf;
            }
        }
        return null;
    }
}

Using it the way you wanted would be something like:

ArrayUtils::objArraySearch($array,'ID',$v);

Regex for not empty and not whitespace

In my understanding you want to match a non-blank and non-empty string, so the top answer is doing the opposite. I suggest:

(.|\s)*\S(.|\s)*

- this matches any string containing at least one non-whitespace character (the \S in the middle). It can be preceded and followed by anything, any char or whitespace sequence (including new lines) - (.|\s)*.

You can try it with explanation on https://regex101.com/.

WARNING: Setting property 'source' to 'org.eclipse.jst.jee.server:appname' did not find a matching property

Despite this question being rather old, I had to deal with a similar warning and wanted to share what I found out.

First of all this is a warning and not an error. So there is no need to worry too much about it. Basically it means, that Tomcat does not know what to do with the source attribute from context.

This source attribute is set by Eclipse (or to be more specific the Eclipse Web Tools Platform) to the server.xml file of Tomcat to match the running application to a project in workspace.

Tomcat generates a warning for every unknown markup in the server.xml (i.e. the source attribute) and this is the source of the warning. You can safely ignore it.

jquery - return value using ajax result on success

Add async: false to your attributes list. This forces the javascript thread to wait until the return value is retrieved before moving on. Obviously, you wouldn't want to do this in every circumstance, but if a value is needed before proceeding, this will do it.

Should we pass a shared_ptr by reference or by value?

There was a recent blog post: https://medium.com/@vgasparyan1995/pass-by-value-vs-pass-by-reference-to-const-c-f8944171e3ce

So the answer to this is: Do (almost) never pass by const shared_ptr<T>&.
Simply pass the underlying class instead.

Basically the only reasonable parameters types are:

  • shared_ptr<T> - Modify and take ownership
  • shared_ptr<const T> - Don't modify, take ownership
  • T& - Modify, no ownership
  • const T& - Don't modify, no ownership
  • T - Don't modify, no ownership, Cheap to copy

As @accel pointed out in https://stackoverflow.com/a/26197326/1930508 the advice from Herb Sutter is:

Use a const shared_ptr& as a parameter only if you’re not sure whether or not you’ll take a copy and share ownership

But in how many cases are you not sure? So this is a rare situation

Easiest way to pass an AngularJS scope variable from directive to controller?

Wait until angular has evaluated the variable

I had a lot of fiddling around with this, and couldn't get it to work even with the variable defined with "=" in the scope. Here's three solutions depending on your situation.


Solution #1


I found that the variable was not evaluated by angular yet when it was passed to the directive. This means that you can access it and use it in the template, but not inside the link or app controller function unless we wait for it to be evaluated.

If your variable is changing, or is fetched through a request, you should use $observe or $watch:

app.directive('yourDirective', function () {
    return {
        restrict: 'A',
        // NB: no isolated scope!!
        link: function (scope, element, attrs) {
            // observe changes in attribute - could also be scope.$watch
            attrs.$observe('yourDirective', function (value) {
                if (value) {
                    console.log(value);
                    // pass value to app controller
                    scope.variable = value;
                }
            });
        },
        // the variable is available in directive controller,
        // and can be fetched as done in link function
        controller: ['$scope', '$element', '$attrs',
            function ($scope, $element, $attrs) {
                // observe changes in attribute - could also be scope.$watch
                $attrs.$observe('yourDirective', function (value) {
                    if (value) {
                        console.log(value);
                        // pass value to app controller
                        $scope.variable = value;
                    }
                });
            }
        ]
    };
})
.controller('MyCtrl', ['$scope', function ($scope) {
    // variable passed to app controller
    $scope.$watch('variable', function (value) {
        if (value) {
            console.log(value);
        }
    });
}]);

And here's the html (remember the brackets!):

<div ng-controller="MyCtrl">
    <div your-directive="{{ someObject.someVariable }}"></div>
    <!-- use ng-bind in stead of {{ }}, when you can to avoids FOUC -->
    <div ng-bind="variable"></div>
</div>

Note that you should not set the variable to "=" in the scope, if you are using the $observe function. Also, I found that it passes objects as strings, so if you're passing objects use solution #2 or scope.$watch(attrs.yourDirective, fn) (, or #3 if your variable is not changing).


Solution #2


If your variable is created in e.g. another controller, but just need to wait until angular has evaluated it before sending it to the app controller, we can use $timeout to wait until the $apply has run. Also we need to use $emit to send it to the parent scope app controller (due to the isolated scope in the directive):

app.directive('yourDirective', ['$timeout', function ($timeout) {
    return {
        restrict: 'A',
        // NB: isolated scope!!
        scope: {
            yourDirective: '='
        },
        link: function (scope, element, attrs) {
            // wait until after $apply
            $timeout(function(){
                console.log(scope.yourDirective);
                // use scope.$emit to pass it to controller
                scope.$emit('notification', scope.yourDirective);
            });
        },
        // the variable is available in directive controller,
        // and can be fetched as done in link function
        controller: [ '$scope', function ($scope) {
            // wait until after $apply
            $timeout(function(){
                console.log($scope.yourDirective);
                // use $scope.$emit to pass it to controller
                $scope.$emit('notification', scope.yourDirective);
            });
        }]
    };
}])
.controller('MyCtrl', ['$scope', function ($scope) {
    // variable passed to app controller
    $scope.$on('notification', function (evt, value) {
        console.log(value);
        $scope.variable = value;
    });
}]);

And here's the html (no brackets!):

<div ng-controller="MyCtrl">
    <div your-directive="someObject.someVariable"></div>
    <!-- use ng-bind in stead of {{ }}, when you can to avoids FOUC -->
    <div ng-bind="variable"></div>
</div>

Solution #3


If your variable is not changing and you need to evaluate it in your directive, you can use the $eval function:

app.directive('yourDirective', function () {
    return {
        restrict: 'A',
        // NB: no isolated scope!!
        link: function (scope, element, attrs) {
            // executes the expression on the current scope returning the result
            // and adds it to the scope
            scope.variable = scope.$eval(attrs.yourDirective);
            console.log(scope.variable);

        },
        // the variable is available in directive controller,
        // and can be fetched as done in link function
        controller: ['$scope', '$element', '$attrs',
            function ($scope, $element, $attrs) {
                // executes the expression on the current scope returning the result
                // and adds it to the scope
                scope.variable = scope.$eval($attrs.yourDirective);
                console.log($scope.variable);
            }
         ]
    };
})
.controller('MyCtrl', ['$scope', function ($scope) {
    // variable passed to app controller
    $scope.$watch('variable', function (value) {
        if (value) {
            console.log(value);
        }
    });
}]);

And here's the html (remember the brackets!):

<div ng-controller="MyCtrl">
    <div your-directive="{{ someObject.someVariable }}"></div>
    <!-- use ng-bind instead of {{ }}, when you can to avoids FOUC -->
    <div ng-bind="variable"></div>
</div>

SHOW PROCESSLIST in MySQL command: sleep

It's not a query waiting for connection; it's a connection pointer waiting for the timeout to terminate.

It doesn't have an impact on performance. The only thing it's using is a few bytes as every connection does.

The really worst case: It's using one connection of your pool; If you would connect multiple times via console client and just close the client without closing the connection, you could use up all your connections and have to wait for the timeout to be able to connect again... but this is highly unlikely :-)

See MySql Proccesslist filled with "Sleep" Entries leading to "Too many Connections"? and https://dba.stackexchange.com/questions/1558/how-long-is-too-long-for-mysql-connections-to-sleep for more information.

Sending a JSON to server and retrieving a JSON in return, without JQuery

Sending and receiving data in JSON format using POST method

// Sending and receiving data in JSON format using POST method
//
var xhr = new XMLHttpRequest();
var url = "url";
xhr.open("POST", url, true);
xhr.setRequestHeader("Content-Type", "application/json");
xhr.onreadystatechange = function () {
    if (xhr.readyState === 4 && xhr.status === 200) {
        var json = JSON.parse(xhr.responseText);
        console.log(json.email + ", " + json.password);
    }
};
var data = JSON.stringify({"email": "[email protected]", "password": "101010"});
xhr.send(data);

Sending and receiving data in JSON format using GET method

// Sending a receiving data in JSON format using GET method
//      
var xhr = new XMLHttpRequest();
var url = "url?data=" + encodeURIComponent(JSON.stringify({"email": "[email protected]", "password": "101010"}));
xhr.open("GET", url, true);
xhr.setRequestHeader("Content-Type", "application/json");
xhr.onreadystatechange = function () {
    if (xhr.readyState === 4 && xhr.status === 200) {
        var json = JSON.parse(xhr.responseText);
        console.log(json.email + ", " + json.password);
    }
};
xhr.send();

Handling data in JSON format on the server-side using PHP

<?php
// Handling data in JSON format on the server-side using PHP
//
header("Content-Type: application/json");
// build a PHP variable from JSON sent using POST method
$v = json_decode(stripslashes(file_get_contents("php://input")));
// build a PHP variable from JSON sent using GET method
$v = json_decode(stripslashes($_GET["data"]));
// encode the PHP variable to JSON and send it back on client-side
echo json_encode($v);
?>

The limit of the length of an HTTP Get request is dependent on both the server and the client (browser) used, from 2kB - 8kB. The server should return 414 (Request-URI Too Long) status if an URI is longer than the server can handle.

Note Someone said that I could use state names instead of state values; in other words I could use xhr.readyState === xhr.DONE instead of xhr.readyState === 4 The problem is that Internet Explorer uses different state names so it's better to use state values.

How to Get a Specific Column Value from a DataTable?

I suppose you could use a DataView object instead, this would then allow you to take advantage of the RowFilter property as explained here:

private void MakeDataView() 
{
    DataView view = new DataView();

    view.Table = DataSet1.Tables["Countries"];
    view.RowFilter = "CountryName = 'France'";
    view.RowStateFilter = DataViewRowState.ModifiedCurrent;

    // Simple-bind to a TextBox control
    Text1.DataBindings.Add("Text", view, "CountryID");
}

Resize image with javascript canvas (smoothly)

Since Trung Le Nguyen Nhat's fiddle isn't correct at all (it just uses the original image in the last step)
I wrote my own general fiddle with performance comparison:

FIDDLE

Basically it's:

img.onload = function() {
   var canvas = document.createElement('canvas'),
       ctx = canvas.getContext("2d"),
       oc = document.createElement('canvas'),
       octx = oc.getContext('2d');

   canvas.width = width; // destination canvas size
   canvas.height = canvas.width * img.height / img.width;

   var cur = {
     width: Math.floor(img.width * 0.5),
     height: Math.floor(img.height * 0.5)
   }

   oc.width = cur.width;
   oc.height = cur.height;

   octx.drawImage(img, 0, 0, cur.width, cur.height);

   while (cur.width * 0.5 > width) {
     cur = {
       width: Math.floor(cur.width * 0.5),
       height: Math.floor(cur.height * 0.5)
     };
     octx.drawImage(oc, 0, 0, cur.width * 2, cur.height * 2, 0, 0, cur.width, cur.height);
   }

   ctx.drawImage(oc, 0, 0, cur.width, cur.height, 0, 0, canvas.width, canvas.height);

Why shouldn't I use PyPy over CPython if PyPy is 6.3 times faster?

NOTE: PyPy is more mature and better supported now than it was in 2013, when this question was asked. Avoid drawing conclusions from out-of-date information.


  1. PyPy, as others have been quick to mention, has tenuous support for C extensions. It has support, but typically at slower-than-Python speeds and it's iffy at best. Hence a lot of modules simply require CPython. PyPy doesn't support numpy. Some extensions are still not supported (Pandas, SciPy, etc.), take a look at the list of supported packages before making the change. Note that many packages marked unsupported on the list are now supported.
  2. Python 3 support is experimental at the moment. has just reached stable! As of 20th June 2014, PyPy3 2.3.1 - Fulcrum is out!
  3. PyPy sometimes isn't actually faster for "scripts", which a lot of people use Python for. These are the short-running programs that do something simple and small. Because PyPy is a JIT compiler its main advantages come from long run times and simple types (such as numbers). PyPy's pre-JIT speeds can be bad compared to CPython.
  4. Inertia. Moving to PyPy often requires retooling, which for some people and organizations is simply too much work.

Those are the main reasons that affect me, I'd say.

Concatenate columns in Apache Spark DataFrame

concat(*cols)

v1.5 and higher

Concatenates multiple input columns together into a single column. The function works with strings, binary and compatible array columns.

Eg: new_df = df.select(concat(df.a, df.b, df.c))


concat_ws(sep, *cols)

v1.5 and higher

Similar to concat but uses the specified separator.

Eg: new_df = df.select(concat_ws('-', df.col1, df.col2))


map_concat(*cols)

v2.4 and higher

Used to concat maps, returns the union of all the given maps.

Eg: new_df = df.select(map_concat("map1", "map2"))


Using string concat operator (||):

v2.3 and higher

Eg: df = spark.sql("select col_a || col_b || col_c as abc from table_x")

What is the best way to add a value to an array in state

Both of the options you provided are the same. Both of them will still point to the same object in memory and have the same array values. You should treat the state object as immutable as you said, however you need to re-create the array so its pointing to a new object, set the new item, then reset the state. Example:

onChange(event){
    var newArray = this.state.arr.slice();    
    newArray.push("new value");   
    this.setState({arr:newArray})

How to import Maven dependency in Android Studio/IntelliJ?

I am using the springframework android artifact as an example

open build.gradle

Then add the following at the same level as apply plugin: 'android'

apply plugin: 'android'

repositories {
    mavenCentral()
}

dependencies {
   compile group: 'org.springframework.android', name: 'spring-android-rest-template', version: '1.0.1.RELEASE'
}

you can also use this notation for maven artifacts

compile 'org.springframework.android:spring-android-rest-template:1.0.1.RELEASE'

Your IDE should show the jar and its dependencies under 'External Libraries' if it doesn't show up try to restart the IDE (this happened to me quite a bit)

here is the example that you provided that works

buildscript { 
    repositories { 
        maven { 
            url 'repo1.maven.org/maven2'; 
        } 
    } 
    dependencies { 
        classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:0.4' 
    } 
} 
apply plugin: 'android'

repositories {
    mavenCentral()
}

dependencies { 
    compile files('libs/android-support-v4.jar') 
    compile group:'com.squareup.picasso', name:'picasso', version:'1.0.1' 
} 
android { 
    compileSdkVersion 17 
    buildToolsVersion "17.0.0" 
    defaultConfig { 
        minSdkVersion 14 
        targetSdkVersion 17 
    } 
} 

How can I modify a saved Microsoft Access 2007 or 2010 Import Specification?

How do you produce a .d.ts "typings" definition file from an existing JavaScript library?

I would look for an existing mapping of your 3rd party JS libraries that support Script# or SharpKit. Users of these C# to .js cross compilers will have faced the problem you now face and might have published an open source program to scan your 3rd party lib and convert into skeleton C# classes. If so hack the scanner program to generate TypeScript in place of C#.

Failing that, translating a C# public interface for your 3rd party lib into TypeScript definitions might be simpler than doing the same by reading the source JavaScript.

My special interest is Sencha's ExtJS RIA framework and I know there have been projects published to generate a C# interpretation for Script# or SharpKit

How to undo local changes to a specific file

You don't want git revert. That undoes a previous commit. You want git checkout to get git's version of the file from master.

git checkout -- filename.txt

In general, when you want to perform a git operation on a single file, use -- filename.



2020 Update

Git introduced a new command git restore in version 2.23.0. Therefore, if you have git version 2.23.0+, you can simply git restore filename.txt - which does the same thing as git checkout -- filename.txt. The docs for this command do note that it is currently experimental.

Difference between WebStorm and PHPStorm

In my own experience, even though theoretically many JetBrains products share the same functionalities, the new features that get introduced in some apps don't get immediately introduced in the others. In particular, IntelliJ IDEA has a new version once per year, while WebStorm and PHPStorm get 2 to 3 per year I think. Keep that in mind when choosing an IDE. :)

What is a good practice to check if an environmental variable exists or not?

I'd recommend the following solution.

It prints the env vars you didn't include, which lets you add them all at once. If you go for the for loop, you're going to have to rerun the program to see each missing var.

from os import environ

REQUIRED_ENV_VARS = {"A", "B", "C", "D"}
diff = REQUIRED_ENV_VARS.difference(environ)
if len(diff) > 0:
    raise EnvironmentError(f'Failed because {diff} are not set')

PHP append one array to another (not array_push or +)

Since PHP 7.4 you can use the ... operator. This is also known as the splat operator in other languages, including Ruby.

$parts = ['apple', 'pear'];
$fruits = ['banana', 'orange', ...$parts, 'watermelon'];
var_dump($fruits);

Output

array(5) {
    [0]=>
    string(6) "banana"
    [1]=>
    string(6) "orange"
    [2]=>
    string(5) "apple"
    [3]=>
    string(4) "pear"
    [4]=>
    string(10) "watermelon"
}

Splat operator should have better performance than array_merge. That’s not only because the splat operator is a language structure while array_merge is a function, but also because compile time optimization can be performant for constant arrays.

Moreover, we can use the splat operator syntax everywhere in the array, as normal elements can be added before or after the splat operator.

$arr1 = [1, 2, 3];
$arr2 = [4, 5, 6];
$arr3 = [...$arr1, ...$arr2];
$arr4 = [...$arr1, ...$arr3, 7, 8, 9];

WHERE vs HAVING

The main difference is that WHERE cannot be used on grouped item (such as SUM(number)) whereas HAVING can.

The reason is the WHERE is done before the grouping and HAVING is done after the grouping is done.

Enabling SSL with XAMPP

Found the answer. In the file xampp\apache\conf\extra\httpd-ssl.conf, under the comment SSL Virtual Host Context pages on port 443 meaning https is looked up under different document root.

Simply change the document root to the same one and problem is fixed.

How can I create a keystore?

If you don't want to or can't use Android Studio, you can use the create-android-keystore NPM tool:

How do I properly set the Datetimeindex for a Pandas datetime object in a dataframe?

You are not creating datetime index properly,

format = '%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S'
df['Datetime'] = pd.to_datetime(df['date'] + ' ' + df['time'], format=format)
df = df.set_index(pd.DatetimeIndex(df['Datetime']))

Android replace the current fragment with another fragment

If you have a handle to an existing fragment you can just replace it with the fragment's ID.

Example in Kotlin:

fun aTestFuction() {
   val existingFragment = MyExistingFragment() //Get it from somewhere, this is a dirty example
   val newFragment = MyNewFragment()
   replaceFragment(existingFragment, newFragment, "myTag")
}

fun replaceFragment(existing: Fragment, new: Fragment, tag: String? = null) {
    supportFragmentManager.beginTransaction().replace(existing.id, new, tag).commit()
}

Forbidden: You don't have permission to access / on this server, WAMP Error

1.

first of all Port 80(or what ever you are using) and 443 must be allow for both TCP and UDP packets. To do this, create 2 inbound rules for TPC and UDP on Windows Firewall for port 80 and 443. (or you can disable your whole firewall for testing but permanent solution if allow inbound rule)

2.

If you are using WAMPServer 3 See bottom of answer

For WAMPServer versions <= 2.5

You need to change the security setting on Apache to allow access from anywhere else, so edit your httpd.conf file.

Change this section from :

#   onlineoffline tag - don't remove
     Order Deny,Allow
     Deny from all
     Allow from 127.0.0.1
     Allow from ::1
     Allow from localhost

To :

#   onlineoffline tag - don't remove
    Order Allow,Deny
      Allow from all

if "Allow from all" line not work for your then use "Require all granted" then it will work for you.

WAMPServer 3 has a different method

In version 3 and > of WAMPServer there is a Virtual Hosts pre defined for localhost so dont amend the httpd.conf file at all, leave it as you found it.

Using the menus, edit the httpd-vhosts.conf file.

enter image description here

It should look like this :

<VirtualHost *:80>
    ServerName localhost
    DocumentRoot D:/wamp/www
    <Directory  "D:/wamp/www/">
        Options +Indexes +FollowSymLinks +MultiViews
        AllowOverride All
        Require local
    </Directory>
</VirtualHost>

Amend it to

<VirtualHost *:80>
    ServerName localhost
    DocumentRoot D:/wamp/www
    <Directory  "D:/wamp/www/">
        Options +Indexes +FollowSymLinks +MultiViews
        AllowOverride All
        Require all granted
    </Directory>
</VirtualHost>

Note:if you are running wamp for other than port 80 then VirtualHost will be like VirtualHost *:86.(86 or port whatever you are using) instead of VirtualHost *:80

3. Dont forget to restart All Services of Wamp or Apache after making this change

How can I change the text color with jQuery?

Place the following in your jQuery mouseover event handler:

$(this).css('color', 'red');

To set both color and size at the same time:

$(this).css({ 'color': 'red', 'font-size': '150%' });

You can set any CSS attribute using the .css() jQuery function.

What is the backslash character (\\)?

\ is used as for escape sequence in many programming languages, including Java.

If you want to

  • go to next line then use \n or \r,
  • for tab use \t
  • likewise to print a \ or " which are special in string literal you have to escape it with another \ which gives us \\ and \"

How can I remove a key and its value from an associative array?

You can use unset:

unset($array['key-here']);

Example:

$array = array("key1" => "value1", "key2" => "value2");
print_r($array);

unset($array['key1']);
print_r($array);

unset($array['key2']);
print_r($array);

Output:

Array
(
    [key1] => value1
    [key2] => value2
)
Array
(
    [key2] => value2
)
Array
(
)

What is the main difference between PATCH and PUT request?

According to HTTP terms, The PUT request is just-like a database update statement. PUT - is used for modifying existing resource (Previously POSTED). On the other hand the PATCH request is used to update some portion of existing resource.

For Example:

Customer Details:

// This is just a example.

firstName = "James";
lastName = "Anderson";
email = "[email protected]";
phoneNumber = "+92 1234567890";
//..

When we want to update to entire record ? we have to use Http PUT verb for that.

such as:

// Customer Details Updated.

firstName = "James++++";
lastName = "Anderson++++";
email = "[email protected]";
phoneNumber = "+92 0987654321";
//..

On the other hand if we want to update only the portion of the record not the entire record then go for Http PATCH verb. such as:

   // Only Customer firstName and lastName is Updated.

    firstName = "Updated FirstName";
    lastName = "Updated LastName";
   //..

PUT VS POST:

When using PUT request we have to send all parameter such as firstName, lastName, email, phoneNumber Where as In patch request only send the parameters which one we want to update and it won't effecting or changing other data.

Switch statement fall-through...should it be allowed?

It can be very useful a few times, but in general, no fall-through is the desired behavior. Fall-through should be allowed, but not implicit.

An example, to update old versions of some data:

switch (version) {
    case 1:
        // Update some stuff
    case 2:
        // Update more stuff
    case 3:
        // Update even more stuff
    case 4:
        // And so on
}

Alter a MySQL column to be AUTO_INCREMENT

You can apply the atuto_increment constraint to the data column by the following query:

ALTER TABLE customers MODIFY COLUMN customer_id BIGINT NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT;

But, if the columns are part of a foreign key constraint you, will most probably receive an error. Therefore, it is advised to turn off foreign_key_checks by using the following query:

SET foreign_key_checks = 0;

Therefore, use the following query instead:

SET foreign_key_checks = 0;
ALTER TABLE customers MODIFY COLUMN customer_id BIGINT NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT;
SET foreign_key_checks = 1;

Difference between Node object and Element object?

Element inherits from Node, in the same way that Dog inherits from Animal.

An Element object "is-a" Node object, in the same way that a Dog object "is-a" Animal object.

Node is for implementing a tree structure, so its methods are for firstChild, lastChild, childNodes, etc. It is more of a class for a generic tree structure.

And then, some Node objects are also Element objects. Element inherits from Node. Element objects actually represents the objects as specified in the HTML file by the tags such as <div id="content"></div>. The Element class define properties and methods such as attributes, id, innerHTML, clientWidth, blur(), and focus().

Some Node objects are text nodes and they are not Element objects. Each Node object has a nodeType property that indicates what type of node it is, for HTML documents:

1: Element node
3: Text node
8: Comment node
9: the top level node, which is document

We can see some examples in the console:

> document instanceof Node
  true

> document instanceof Element
  false

> document.firstChild
  <html>...</html>

> document.firstChild instanceof Node
  true

> document.firstChild instanceof Element
  true

> document.firstChild.firstChild.nextElementSibling
  <body>...</body>

> document.firstChild.firstChild.nextElementSibling === document.body
  true

> document.firstChild.firstChild.nextSibling
  #text

> document.firstChild.firstChild.nextSibling instanceof Node
  true

> document.firstChild.firstChild.nextSibling instanceof Element
  false

> Element.prototype.__proto__ === Node.prototype
  true

The last line above shows that Element inherits from Node. (that line won't work in IE due to __proto__. Will need to use Chrome, Firefox, or Safari).

By the way, the document object is the top of the node tree, and document is a Document object, and Document inherits from Node as well:

> Document.prototype.__proto__ === Node.prototype
  true

Here are some docs for the Node and Element classes:
https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/DOM/Node
https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/DOM/Element

How to use RecyclerView inside NestedScrollView?

If you are using RecyclerView-23.2.1 or later. Following solution will work just fine:

In your layout add RecyclerView like this:

<android.support.v7.widget.RecyclerView
        android:id="@+id/review_list"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:scrollbars="vertical" />

And in your java file:

RecyclerView mRecyclerView = (RecyclerView) view.findViewById(R.id.recyclerView);
LinearLayoutManager layoutManager=new LinearLayoutManager(getContext());
layoutManager.setAutoMeasureEnabled(true);
mRecyclerView.setLayoutManager(layoutManager);
mRecyclerView.setHasFixedSize(true);
mRecyclerView.setAdapter(new YourListAdapter(getContext()));

Here layoutManager.setAutoMeasureEnabled(true); will do the trick.

SQL Server 2008 Row Insert and Update timestamps

As an alternative to using a trigger, you might like to consider creating a stored procedure to handle the INSERTs that takes most of the columns as arguments and gets the CURRENT_TIMESTAMP which it includes in the final INSERT to the database. You could do the same for the CREATE. You may also be able to set things up so that users cannot execute INSERT and CREATE statements other than via the stored procedures.

I have to admit that I haven't actually done this myself so I'm not at all sure of the details.

I get Access Forbidden (Error 403) when setting up new alias

I finally got it to work.

I'm not sure if the spaces in the path were breaking things but I changed the workspace of my Aptana installation to something without spaces.

Then I uninstalled XAMPP and reinstalled it because I was thinking maybe I made a typo somewhere without noticing and figured I should be working from scratch.

Turns out Windows 7 has a service somewhere that uses port 80 which blocks apache from starting (giving it the -1) error. So I changed the port it listens to port 8080, no more conflict.

Finally I restarted my computer, for some reason XAMPP doesn't like me messing with ini files and just restarting apache wasn't doing the trick.

Anyway, this has been the most frustrating day ever so I really hope my answer ends up helping someone out!

How do I create a HTTP Client Request with a cookie?

The use of http.createClient is now deprecated. You can pass Headers in options collection as below.

What is the behavior difference between return-path, reply-to and from?

for those who got here because the title of the question:

I use Reply-To: address with webforms. when someone fills out the form, the webpage sends an automatic email to the page's owner. the From: is the automatic mail sender's address, so the owner knows it is from the webform. but the Reply-To: address is the one filled in in the form by the user, so the owner can just hit reply to contact them.

fastest MD5 Implementation in JavaScript

I would suggest you use CryptoJS in this case.

Basically CryptoJS is a growing collection of standard and secure cryptographic algorithms implemented in JavaScript using best practices and patterns. They are fast, and they have a consistent and simple interface.

So if you want to calculate the MD5 hash of your password string then do as follows:

<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/crypto-js/3.1.9-1/core.js"></script>
<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/crypto-js/3.1.9-1/md5.js"></script>
<script>
    var passhash = CryptoJS.MD5(password).toString();

    $.post(
      'includes/login.php', 
      { user: username, pass: passhash },
      onLogin, 
      'json' );
</script>

So this script will post the hash of your password string to the server.

For further info and support on other hash calculating algorithms you can visit:

ASP.NET Web API application gives 404 when deployed at IIS 7

While the marked answer gets it working, all you really need to add to the webconfig is:

    <handlers>
      <!-- Your other remove tags-->
      <remove name="UrlRoutingModule-4.0"/>
      <!-- Your other add tags-->
      <add name="UrlRoutingModule-4.0" path="*" verb="*" type="System.Web.Routing.UrlRoutingModule" preCondition=""/>
    </handlers>

Note that none of those have a particular order, though you want your removes before your adds.

The reason that we end up getting a 404 is because the Url Routing Module only kicks in for the root of the website in IIS. By adding the module to this application's config, we're having the module to run under this application's path (your subdirectory path), and the routing module kicks in.

How to iterate through property names of Javascript object?

In JavaScript 1.8.5, Object.getOwnPropertyNames returns an array of all properties found directly upon a given object.

Object.getOwnPropertyNames ( obj )

and another method Object.keys, which returns an array containing the names of all of the given object's own enumerable properties.

Object.keys( obj )

I used forEach to list values and keys in obj, same as for (var key in obj) ..

Object.keys(obj).forEach(function (key) {
      console.log( key , obj[key] );
});

This all are new features in ECMAScript , the mothods getOwnPropertyNames, keys won't supports old browser's.

How to count the number of true elements in a NumPy bool array

You have multiple options. Two options are the following.

numpy.sum(boolarr)
numpy.count_nonzero(boolarr)

Here's an example:

>>> import numpy as np
>>> boolarr = np.array([[0, 0, 1], [1, 0, 1], [1, 0, 1]], dtype=np.bool)
>>> boolarr
array([[False, False,  True],
       [ True, False,  True],
       [ True, False,  True]], dtype=bool)

>>> np.sum(boolarr)

Of course, that is a bool-specific answer. More generally, you can use numpy.count_nonzero.

>>> np.count_nonzero(boolarr)

Critical t values in R

Extending @Ryogi answer above, you can take advantage of the lower.tail parameter like so:

qt(0.25/2, 40, lower.tail = FALSE) # 75% confidence

qt(0.01/2, 40, lower.tail = FALSE) # 99% confidence

SQL Server - Adding a string to a text column (concat equivalent)

hmm, try doing CAST(' ' AS TEXT) + [myText]

Although, i am not completely sure how this will pan out.

I also suggest against using the Text datatype, use varchar instead.

If that doesn't work, try ' ' + CAST ([myText] AS VARCHAR(255))

How to dynamically create generic C# object using reflection?

Make sure you're doing this for a good reason, a simple function like the following would allow static typing and allows your IDE to do things like "Find References" and Refactor -> Rename.

public Task <T> factory (String name)
{
  Task <T> result;

  if (name.CompareTo ("A") == 0)
  {
    result = new TaskA ();
  }
  else if (name.CompareTo ("B") == 0)
  {
    result = new TaskB ();
  }

  return result;
}

How to view log output using docker-compose run?

Update July 1st 2019

docker-compose logs <name-of-service>

From the documentation:

Usage: logs [options] [SERVICE...]

Options:

--no-color Produce monochrome output.

-f, --follow Follow log output.

-t, --timestamps Show timestamps.

--tail="all" Number of lines to show from the end of the logs for each container.

See docker logs

You can start Docker compose in detached mode and attach yourself to the logs of all container later. If you're done watching logs you can detach yourself from the logs output without shutting down your services.

  1. Use docker-compose up -d to start all services in detached mode (-d) (you won't see any logs in detached mode)
  2. Use docker-compose logs -f -t to attach yourself to the logs of all running services, whereas -f means you follow the log output and the -t option gives you timestamps (See Docker reference)
  3. Use Ctrl + z or Ctrl + c to detach yourself from the log output without shutting down your running containers

If you're interested in logs of a single container you can use the docker keyword instead:

  1. Use docker logs -t -f <name-of-service>

Save the output

To save the output to a file you add the following to your logs command:

  1. docker-compose logs -f -t >> myDockerCompose.log

Subset and ggplot2

With option 2 in @agstudy's answer now deprecated, defining data with a function can be handy.

library(plyr)
ggplot(data=dat) + 
  geom_line(aes(Value1, Value2, group=ID, colour=ID),
            data=function(x){x$ID %in% c("P1", "P3"))

This approach comes in handy if you wish to reuse a dataset in the same plot, e.g. you don't want to specify a new column in the data.frame, or you want to explicitly plot one dataset in a layer above the other.:

library(plyr)
ggplot(data=dat, aes(Value1, Value2, group=ID, colour=ID)) + 
  geom_line(data=function(x){x[!x$ID %in% c("P1", "P3"), ]}, alpha=0.5) +
  geom_line(data=function(x){x[x$ID %in% c("P1", "P3"), ]})

Check/Uncheck a checkbox on datagridview

Looking at this MSDN Forum Posting it suggests comparing the Cell's value with Cell.TrueValue.

So going by its example your code should looks something like this:(this is completely untested)

Edit: it seems that the Default for Cell.TrueValue for an Unbound DataGridViewCheckBox is null you will need to set it in the Column definition.

private void chkItems_CheckedChanged(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    foreach (DataGridViewRow row in dataGridView1.Rows)
    {
        DataGridViewCheckBoxCell chk = (DataGridViewCheckBoxCell)row.Cells[1];
        if (chk.Value  == chk.TrueValue)
        {
            chk.Value = chk.FalseValue;
        }
        else
        {
            chk.Value = chk.TrueValue;
        }
    }
}

This code is working note setting the TrueValue and FalseValue in the Constructor plus also checking for null:

public partial class Form1 : Form
{
    public Form1()
    {
        InitializeComponent();
        DataGridViewCheckBoxColumn CheckboxColumn = new DataGridViewCheckBoxColumn();
        CheckboxColumn.TrueValue = true;
        CheckboxColumn.FalseValue = false;
        CheckboxColumn.Width = 100;
        dataGridView1.Columns.Add(CheckboxColumn);
        dataGridView1.Rows.Add(4);
    }

    private void chkItems_CheckedChanged(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        foreach (DataGridViewRow row in dataGridView1.Rows)
        {
            DataGridViewCheckBoxCell chk = (DataGridViewCheckBoxCell)row.Cells[0];
            if (chk.Value == chk.FalseValue || chk.Value == null)
            {
                chk.Value = chk.TrueValue;
            }
            else
            {
                chk.Value = chk.FalseValue;
            }

        }
        dataGridView1.EndEdit();
    }
}

No authenticationScheme was specified, and there was no DefaultChallengeScheme found with default authentification and custom authorization

Your initial statement in the marked solution isn't entirely true. While your new solution may accomplish your original goal, it is still possible to circumvent the original error while preserving your AuthorizationHandler logic--provided you have basic authentication scheme handlers in place, even if they are functionally skeletons.

Speaking broadly, Authentication Handlers and schemes are meant to establish + validate identity, which makes them required for Authorization Handlers/policies to function--as they run on the supposition that an identity has already been established.

ASP.NET Dev Haok summarizes this best best here: "Authentication today isn't aware of authorization at all, it only cares about producing a ClaimsPrincipal per scheme. Authorization has to be aware of authentication somewhat, so AuthenticationSchemes in the policy is a mechanism for you to associate the policy with schemes used to build the effective claims principal for authorization (or it just uses the default httpContext.User for the request, which does rely on DefaultAuthenticateScheme)." https://github.com/aspnet/Security/issues/1469

In my case, the solution I'm working on provided its own implicit concept of identity, so we had no need for authentication schemes/handlers--just header tokens for authorization. So until our identity concepts changes, our header token authorization handlers that enforce the policies can be tied to 1-to-1 scheme skeletons.

Tags on endpoints:

[Authorize(AuthenticationSchemes = "AuthenticatedUserSchemeName", Policy = "AuthorizedUserPolicyName")]

Startup.cs:

        services.AddAuthentication(options =>
        {
            options.DefaultAuthenticateScheme = "AuthenticatedUserSchemeName";
        }).AddScheme<ValidTokenAuthenticationSchemeOptions, ValidTokenAuthenticationHandler>("AuthenticatedUserSchemeName", _ => { });

        services.AddAuthorization(options =>
        {
            options.AddPolicy("AuthorizedUserPolicyName", policy =>
            {
                //policy.RequireClaim(ClaimTypes.Sid,"authToken");
                policy.AddAuthenticationSchemes("AuthenticatedUserSchemeName");
                policy.AddRequirements(new ValidTokenAuthorizationRequirement());
            });
            services.AddSingleton<IAuthorizationHandler, ValidTokenAuthorizationHandler>();

Both the empty authentication handler and authorization handler are called (similar in setup to OP's respective posts) but the authorization handler still enforces our authorization policies.

How to set proxy for wget?

the following possible configs are located in /etc/wgetrc just uncomment and use...

# You can set the default proxies for Wget to use for http, https, and ftp.
# They will override the value in the environment.

Using Google maps API v3 how do I get LatLng with a given address?

There is a pretty good example on https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/javascript/examples/geocoding-simple

To shorten it up a little:

geocoder = new google.maps.Geocoder();

function codeAddress() {

    //In this case it gets the address from an element on the page, but obviously you  could just pass it to the method instead
    var address = document.getElementById( 'address' ).value;

    geocoder.geocode( { 'address' : address }, function( results, status ) {
        if( status == google.maps.GeocoderStatus.OK ) {

            //In this case it creates a marker, but you can get the lat and lng from the location.LatLng
            map.setCenter( results[0].geometry.location );
            var marker = new google.maps.Marker( {
                map     : map,
                position: results[0].geometry.location
            } );
        } else {
            alert( 'Geocode was not successful for the following reason: ' + status );
        }
    } );
}

Semaphore vs. Monitors - what's the difference?

A Monitor is an object designed to be accessed from multiple threads. The member functions or methods of a monitor object will enforce mutual exclusion, so only one thread may be performing any action on the object at a given time. If one thread is currently executing a member function of the object then any other thread that tries to call a member function of that object will have to wait until the first has finished.

A Semaphore is a lower-level object. You might well use a semaphore to implement a monitor. A semaphore essentially is just a counter. When the counter is positive, if a thread tries to acquire the semaphore then it is allowed, and the counter is decremented. When a thread is done then it releases the semaphore, and increments the counter.

If the counter is already zero when a thread tries to acquire the semaphore then it has to wait until another thread releases the semaphore. If multiple threads are waiting when a thread releases a semaphore then one of them gets it. The thread that releases a semaphore need not be the same thread that acquired it.

A monitor is like a public toilet. Only one person can enter at a time. They lock the door to prevent anyone else coming in, do their stuff, and then unlock it when they leave.

A semaphore is like a bike hire place. They have a certain number of bikes. If you try and hire a bike and they have one free then you can take it, otherwise you must wait. When someone returns their bike then someone else can take it. If you have a bike then you can give it to someone else to return --- the bike hire place doesn't care who returns it, as long as they get their bike back.

convert string array to string

In the accepted answer, String.Join isn't best practice per its usage. String.Concat should have be used since OP included a trailing space in the first item: "Hello " (instead of using a null delimiter).

However, since OP asked for the result "Hello World!", String.Join is still the appropriate method, but the trailing whitespace should be moved to the delimiter instead.

// string[] test = new string[2];

// test[0] = "Hello ";
// test[1] = "World!";

string[] test = { "Hello", "World" }; // Alternative array creation syntax 
string result = String.Join(" ", test);

How to resize Image in Android?

//photo is bitmap image

Bitmap btm00 = Utils.getResizedBitmap(photo, 200, 200);

 setimage.setImageBitmap(btm00);

  And in Utils class :

public static Bitmap getResizedBitmap(Bitmap bm, int newHeight, int newWidth) {
    int width = bm.getWidth();
    int height = bm.getHeight();
    float scaleWidth = ((float) newWidth) / width;
    float scaleHeight = ((float) newHeight) / height;
    Matrix matrix = new Matrix();
    // RESIZE THE BIT MAP
    matrix.postScale(scaleWidth, scaleHeight);
    // RECREATE THE NEW BITMAP
    Bitmap resizedBitmap = Bitmap.createBitmap(bm, 0, 0, width, height,
            matrix, false);
    return resizedBitmap;
}

Using Python's os.path, how do I go up one directory?

With using os.path we can go one directory up like that

one_directory_up_path = os.path.dirname('.')

also after finding the directory you want you can join with other file/directory path

other_image_path = os.path.join(one_directory_up_path, 'other.jpg')

@Transactional(propagation=Propagation.REQUIRED)

If you need a laymans explanation of the use beyond that provided in the Spring Docs

Consider this code...

class Service {
    @Transactional(propagation=Propagation.REQUIRED)
    public void doSomething() {
        // access a database using a DAO
    }
}

When doSomething() is called it knows it has to start a Transaction on the database before executing. If the caller of this method has already started a Transaction then this method will use that same physical Transaction on the current database connection.

This @Transactional annotation provides a means of telling your code when it executes that it must have a Transaction. It will not run without one, so you can make this assumption in your code that you wont be left with incomplete data in your database, or have to clean something up if an exception occurs.

Transaction management is a fairly complicated subject so hopefully this simplified answer is helpful

PHP validation/regex for URL

Peter's Regex doesn't look right to me for many reasons. It allows all kinds of special characters in the domain name and doesn't test for much.

Frankie's function looks good to me and you can build a good regex from the components if you don't want a function, like so:

^(http://|https://)(([a-z0-9]([-a-z0-9]*[a-z0-9]+)?){1,63}\.)+[a-z]{2,6}

Untested but I think that should work.

Also, Owen's answer doesn't look 100% either. I took the domain part of the regex and tested it on a Regex tester tool http://erik.eae.net/playground/regexp/regexp.html

I put the following line:

(\S*?\.\S*?)

in the "regexp" section and the following line:

-hello.com

under the "sample text" section.

The result allowed the minus character through. Because \S means any non-space character.

Note the regex from Frankie handles the minus because it has this part for the first character:

[a-z0-9]

Which won't allow the minus or any other special character.

How to add a button dynamically in Android?

If you want to add dynamically buttons try this:

public class MainActivity extends Activity {
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(R.layout.activity_main2);
    for (int i = 1; i <= 5; i++) {
        LinearLayout layout = (LinearLayout) findViewById(R.id.myLinearLayout);
        layout.setOrientation(LinearLayout.VERTICAL);
        Button btn = new Button(this);
        btn.setText("    ");
        layout.addView(btn);
    }

}

Eclipse jump to closing brace

Place the cursor next to an opening or closing brace and punch Ctrl + Shift + P to find the matching brace. If Eclipse can't find one you'll get a "No matching bracket found" message.

edit: as mentioned by Romaintaz below, you can also get Eclipse to auto-select all of the code between two curly braces simply by double-clicking to the immediate right of a opening brace.

Select first occurring element after another element

Simplyfing for the begginers:

If you want to select an element immediatly after another element you use the + selector.

For example:

div + p The "+" element selects all <p> elements that are placed immediately after <div> elements


If you want to learn more about selectors use this table

How to split a string between letters and digits (or between digits and letters)?

If you are looking for solution without using Java String functionality (i.e. split, match, etc.) then the following should help:

List<String> splitString(String string) {
        List<String> list = new ArrayList<String>();
        String token = "";
        char curr;
        for (int e = 0; e < string.length() + 1; e++) {
            if (e == 0)
                curr = string.charAt(0);
            else {
                curr = string.charAt(--e);
            }

            if (isNumber(curr)) {
                while (e < string.length() && isNumber(string.charAt(e))) {
                    token += string.charAt(e++);
                }
                list.add(token);
                token = "";
            } else {
                while (e < string.length() && !isNumber(string.charAt(e))) {
                    token += string.charAt(e++);
                }
                list.add(token);
                token = "";
            }

        }

        return list;
    }

boolean isNumber(char c) {
        return c >= '0' && c <= '9';
    }

This solution will split numbers and 'words', where 'words' are strings that don't contain numbers. However, if you like to have only 'words' containing English letters then you can easily modify it by adding more conditions (like isNumber method call) depending on your requirements (for example you may wish to skip words that contain non English letters). Also note that the splitString method returns ArrayList which later can be converted to String array.

Running an executable in Mac Terminal

To run an executable in mac

1). Move to the path of the file:

cd/PATH_OF_THE_FILE

2). Run the following command to set the file's executable bit using the chmod command:

chmod +x ./NAME_OF_THE_FILE

3). Run the following command to execute the file:

./NAME_OF_THE_FILE

Once you have run these commands, going ahead you just have to run command 3, while in the files path.

}

There are few catches:

  • The tool.jar is a library distributed with Oracle JDK but not JRE!
  • You cannot get tool.jar from Maven repo; configure it with Maven is a bit tricky
  • The tool.jar probably contains platform dependent (native?) code so it is not easily distributable
  • It runs under assumption that all (local) running JVM apps are "monitorable". It looks like that from Java 6 all apps generally are (unless you actively configure opposite)
  • It probably works only for Java 6+
  • Eclipse does not publish main class, so you will not get Eclipse PID easily Bug in MonitoredVmUtil?

UPDATE: I have just double checked that JPS uses this way, that is Jvmstat library (part of tool.jar). So there is no need to call JPS as external process, call Jvmstat library directly as my example shows. You can aslo get list of all JVMs runnin on localhost this way. See JPS source code:

throwing exceptions out of a destructor

So my question is this - if throwing from a destructor results in undefined behavior, how do you handle errors that occur during a destructor?

The main problem is this: you can't fail to fail. What does it mean to fail to fail, after all? If committing a transaction to a database fails, and it fails to fail (fails to rollback), what happens to the integrity of our data?

Since destructors are invoked for both normal and exceptional (fail) paths, they themselves cannot fail or else we're "failing to fail".

This is a conceptually difficult problem but often the solution is to just find a way to make sure that failing cannot fail. For example, a database might write changes prior to committing to an external data structure or file. If the transaction fails, then the file/data structure can be tossed away. All it has to then ensure is that committing the changes from that external structure/file an atomic transaction that can't fail.

The pragmatic solution is perhaps just make sure that the chances of failing on failure are astronomically improbable, since making things impossible to fail to fail can be almost impossible in some cases.

The most proper solution to me is to write your non-cleanup logic in a way such that the cleanup logic can't fail. For example, if you're tempted to create a new data structure in order to clean up an existing data structure, then perhaps you might seek to create that auxiliary structure in advance so that we no longer have to create it inside a destructor.

This is all much easier said than done, admittedly, but it's the only really proper way I see to go about it. Sometimes I think there should be an ability to write separate destructor logic for normal execution paths away from exceptional ones, since sometimes destructors feel a little bit like they have double the responsibilities by trying to handle both (an example is scope guards which require explicit dismissal; they wouldn't require this if they could differentiate exceptional destruction paths from non-exceptional ones).

Still the ultimate problem is that we can't fail to fail, and it's a hard conceptual design problem to solve perfectly in all cases. It does get easier if you don't get too wrapped up in complex control structures with tons of teeny objects interacting with each other, and instead model your designs in a slightly bulkier fashion (example: particle system with a destructor to destroy the entire particle system, not a separate non-trivial destructor per particle). When you model your designs at this kind of coarser level, you have less non-trivial destructors to deal with, and can also often afford whatever memory/processing overhead is required to make sure your destructors cannot fail.

And that's one of the easiest solutions naturally is to use destructors less often. In the particle example above, perhaps upon destroying/removing a particle, some things should be done that could fail for whatever reason. In that case, instead of invoking such logic through the particle's dtor which could be executed in an exceptional path, you could instead have it all done by the particle system when it removes a particle. Removing a particle might always be done during a non-exceptional path. If the system is destroyed, maybe it can just purge all particles and not bother with that individual particle removal logic which can fail, while the logic that can fail is only executed during the particle system's normal execution when it's removing one or more particles.

There are often solutions like that which crop up if you avoid dealing with lots of teeny objects with non-trivial destructors. Where you can get tangled up in a mess where it seems almost impossible to be exception-safety is when you do get tangled up in lots of teeny objects that all have non-trivial dtors.

It would help a lot if nothrow/noexcept actually translated into a compiler error if anything which specifies it (including virtual functions which should inherit the noexcept specification of its base class) attempted to invoke anything that could throw. This way we'd be able to catch all this stuff at compile-time if we actually write a destructor inadvertently which could throw.

Saving ssh key fails

Want to move a particular div to right

You can use float on that particular div, e.g.

<div style="float:right;">

Float the div you want more space to have to the left as well:

<div style="float:left;">

If all else fails give the div on the right position:absolute and then move it as right as you want it to be.

<div style="position:absolute; left:-500px; top:30px;"> 

etc. Obviously put the style in a seperate stylesheet but this is just a quicker example.

Get the contents of a table row with a button click

You need to change your code to find the row relative to the button which was clicked. Try this:

$(".use-address").click(function() {
    var id = $(this).closest("tr").find(".nr").text();
    $("#resultas").append(id);
});

Uncaught TypeError: Cannot assign to read only property

When you use Object.defineProperties, by default writable is set to false, so _year and edition are actually read only properties.

Explicitly set them to writable: true:

_year: {
    value: 2004,
    writable: true
},

edition: {
    value: 1,
    writable: true
},

Check out MDN for this method.

writable
true if and only if the value associated with the property may be changed with an assignment operator.
Defaults to false.

Plotting 4 curves in a single plot, with 3 y-axes

One possibility you can try is to create 3 axes stacked one on top of the other with the 'Color' properties of the top two set to 'none' so that all the plots are visible. You would have to adjust the axes width, position, and x-axis limits so that the 3 y axes are side-by-side instead of on top of one another. You would also want to remove the x-axis tick marks and labels from 2 of the axes since they will lie on top of one another.

Here's a general implementation that computes the proper positions for the axes and offsets for the x-axis limits to keep the plots lined up properly:

%# Some sample data:
x = 0:20;
N = numel(x);
y1 = rand(1,N);
y2 = 5.*rand(1,N)+5;
y3 = 50.*rand(1,N)-50;

%# Some initial computations:
axesPosition = [110 40 200 200];  %# Axes position, in pixels
yWidth = 30;                      %# y axes spacing, in pixels
xLimit = [min(x) max(x)];         %# Range of x values
xOffset = -yWidth*diff(xLimit)/axesPosition(3);

%# Create the figure and axes:
figure('Units','pixels','Position',[200 200 330 260]);
h1 = axes('Units','pixels','Position',axesPosition,...
          'Color','w','XColor','k','YColor','r',...
          'XLim',xLimit,'YLim',[0 1],'NextPlot','add');
h2 = axes('Units','pixels','Position',axesPosition+yWidth.*[-1 0 1 0],...
          'Color','none','XColor','k','YColor','m',...
          'XLim',xLimit+[xOffset 0],'YLim',[0 10],...
          'XTick',[],'XTickLabel',[],'NextPlot','add');
h3 = axes('Units','pixels','Position',axesPosition+yWidth.*[-2 0 2 0],...
          'Color','none','XColor','k','YColor','b',...
          'XLim',xLimit+[2*xOffset 0],'YLim',[-50 50],...
          'XTick',[],'XTickLabel',[],'NextPlot','add');
xlabel(h1,'time');
ylabel(h3,'values');

%# Plot the data:
plot(h1,x,y1,'r');
plot(h2,x,y2,'m');
plot(h3,x,y3,'b');

and here's the resulting figure:

How to call a method after bean initialization is complete?

To further clear any confusion about the two approach i.e use of

  1. @PostConstruct and
  2. init-method="init"

From personal experience, I realized that using (1) only works in a servlet container, while (2) works in any environment, even in desktop applications. So, if you would be using Spring in a standalone application, you would have to use (2) to carry out that "call this method after initialization.

Getting permission denied (public key) on gitlab

Nothing worked for me on Windows 10 using Pageant as SSH agent, except adding a enviroment variable to windows (translated from german Windows 10, so the naming may differ):

  1. Search for "variables"
  2. Open System Enviroment Variables
  3. Click Enviroment Variables button at the bottom
  4. Add a new key named "GIT_SSH" and the value "C:\Program Files\PuTTY\plink.exe", to the top section "User Variables xxx"
  5. And you're done.

Removing elements from an array in C

Interestingly array is randomly accessible by the index. And removing randomly an element may impact the indexes of other elements as well.

    int remove_element(int*from, int total, int index) {
            if((total - index - 1) > 0) {
                      memmove(from+i, from+i+1, sizeof(int)*(total-index-1));
            }
            return total-1; // return the new array size
    }

Note that memcpy will not work in this case because of the overlapping memory.

One of the efficient way (better than memory move) to remove one random element is swapping with the last element.

    int remove_element(int*from, int total, int index) {
            if(index != (total-1))
                    from[index] = from[total-1];
            return total; // **DO NOT DECREASE** the total here
    }

But the order is changed after the removal.

Again if the removal is done in loop operation then the reordering may impact processing. Memory move is one expensive alternative to keep the order while removing an array element. Another of the way to keep the order while in a loop is to defer the removal. It can be done by validity array of the same size.

    int remove_element(int*from, int total, int*is_valid, int index) {
            is_valid[index] = 0;
            return total-1; // return the number of elements
    }

It will create a sparse array. Finally, the sparse array can be made compact(that contains no two valid elements that contain invalid element between them) by doing some reordering.

    int sparse_to_compact(int*arr, int total, int*is_valid) {
            int i = 0;
            int last = total - 1;
            // trim the last invalid elements
            for(; last >= 0 && !is_valid[last]; last--); // trim invalid elements from last

            // now we keep swapping the invalid with last valid element
            for(i=0; i < last; i++) {
                    if(is_valid[i])
                            continue;
                    arr[i] = arr[last]; // swap invalid with the last valid
                    last--;
                    for(; last >= 0 && !is_valid[last]; last--); // trim invalid elements
            }
            return last+1; // return the compact length of the array
    }

How to post JSON to a server using C#?

Further to Sean's post, it isn't necessary to nest the using statements. By using the StreamWriter it will be flushed and closed at the end of the block so no need to explicitly call the Flush() and Close() methods:

var request = (HttpWebRequest)WebRequest.Create("http://url");
request.ContentType = "application/json";
request.Method = "POST";

using (var streamWriter = new StreamWriter(request.GetRequestStream()))
{
    string json = new JavaScriptSerializer().Serialize(new
                {
                    user = "Foo",
                    password = "Baz"
                });

    streamWriter.Write(json);
}

var response = (HttpWebResponse)request.GetResponse();
using (var streamReader = new StreamReader(response.GetResponseStream()))
{
        var result = streamReader.ReadToEnd();
}

What is the best open XML parser for C++?

What is an IndexOutOfRangeException / ArgumentOutOfRangeException and how do I fix it?

A side from the very long complete accepted answer there is an important point to make about IndexOutOfRangeException compared with many other exception types, and that is:

Often there is complex program state that maybe difficult to have control over at a particular point in code e.g a DB connection goes down so data for an input cannot be retrieved etc... This kind of issue often results in an Exception of some kind that has to bubble up to a higher level because where it occurs has no way of dealing with it at that point.

IndexOutOfRangeException is generally different in that it in most cases it is pretty trivial to check for at the point where the exception is being raised. Generally this kind of exception get thrown by some code that could very easily deal with the issue at the place it is occurring - just by checking the actual length of the array. You don't want to 'fix' this by handling this exception higher up - but instead by ensuring its not thrown in the first instance - which in most cases is easy to do by checking the array length.

Another way of putting this is that other exceptions can arise due to genuine lack of control over input or program state BUT IndexOutOfRangeException more often than not is simply just pilot (programmer) error.

Bash if statement with multiple conditions throws an error

Use -a (for and) and -o (for or) operations.

tldp.org/LDP/Bash-Beginners-Guide/html/sect_07_01.html

Update

Actually you could still use && and || with the -eq operation. So your script would be like this:

my_error_flag=1
my_error_flag_o=1
if [ $my_error_flag -eq 1 ] ||  [ $my_error_flag_o -eq 2 ] || ([ $my_error_flag -eq 1 ] && [ $my_error_flag_o -eq 2 ]); then
      echo "$my_error_flag"
else
    echo "no flag"
fi

Although in your case you can discard the last two expressions and just stick with one or operation like this:

my_error_flag=1
my_error_flag_o=1
if [ $my_error_flag -eq 1 ] ||  [ $my_error_flag_o -eq 2 ]; then
      echo "$my_error_flag"
else
    echo "no flag"
fi

How to solve "Connection reset by peer: socket write error"?

It seems like your problem may be arising at

while(in.read(outputByte,0,4096)!=-1){

where it might go into an infinite loop for not advancing the offset (which is 0 always in the call). Try

while(in.read(outputByte)!=-1){

which will by default try to read upto outputByte.length into the byte[]. This way you dont have to worry about the offset. See FileInputStrem's read method

How to make a launcher

Just develop a normal app and then add a couple of lines to the app's manifest file.

First you need to add the following attribute to your activity:

            android:launchMode="singleTask"

Then add two categories to the intent filter :

            <category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" />
            <category android:name="android.intent.category.HOME" />

The result could look something like this:

    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
    <manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
        package="com.dummy.app"
        android:versionCode="1"
        android:versionName="1.0" >

        <uses-sdk
            android:minSdkVersion="11"
            android:targetSdkVersion="19" />

        <application
            android:allowBackup="true"
            android:icon="@drawable/ic_launcher"
            android:label="@string/app_name"
            android:theme="@style/AppTheme" >
            <activity
                android:name="com.dummy.app.MainActivity"
                android:launchMode="singleTask"
                android:label="@string/app_name" >
                <intent-filter>
                    <action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
                    <category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
                    <category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" />
                    <category android:name="android.intent.category.HOME" />
                </intent-filter>
            </activity>
        </application>

    </manifest>

It's that simple!

Calling a JavaScript function named in a variable

This is kinda ugly, but its the first thing that popped in my head. This also should allow you to pass in arguments:

eval('var myfunc = ' + variable);  myfunc(args, ...);

If you don't need to pass in arguments this might be simpler.

eval(variable + '();');

Standard dry-code warning applies.

How can I discard remote changes and mark a file as "resolved"?

git checkout has the --ours option to check out the version of the file that you had locally (as opposed to --theirs, which is the version that you pulled in). You can pass . to git checkout to tell it to check out everything in the tree. Then you need to mark the conflicts as resolved, which you can do with git add, and commit your work once done:

git checkout --ours .  # checkout our local version of all files
git add -u             # mark all conflicted files as merged
git commit             # commit the merge

Note the . in the git checkout command. That's very important, and easy to miss. git checkout has two modes; one in which it switches branches, and one in which it checks files out of the index into the working copy (sometimes pulling them into the index from another revision first). The way it distinguishes is by whether you've passed a filename in; if you haven't passed in a filename, it tries switching branches (though if you don't pass in a branch either, it will just try checking out the current branch again), but it refuses to do so if there are modified files that that would effect. So, if you want a behavior that will overwrite existing files, you need to pass in . or a filename in order to get the second behavior from git checkout.

It's also a good habit to have, when passing in a filename, to offset it with --, such as git checkout --ours -- <filename>. If you don't do this, and the filename happens to match the name of a branch or tag, Git will think that you want to check that revision out, instead of checking that filename out, and so use the first form of the checkout command.

I'll expand a bit on how conflicts and merging work in Git. When you merge in someone else's code (which also happens during a pull; a pull is essentially a fetch followed by a merge), there are few possible situations.

The simplest is that you're on the same revision. In this case, you're "already up to date", and nothing happens.

Another possibility is that their revision is simply a descendent of yours, in which case you will by default have a "fast-forward merge", in which your HEAD is just updated to their commit, with no merging happening (this can be disabled if you really want to record a merge, using --no-ff).

Then you get into the situations in which you actually need to merge two revisions. In this case, there are two possible outcomes. One is that the merge happens cleanly; all of the changes are in different files, or are in the same files but far enough apart that both sets of changes can be applied without problems. By default, when a clean merge happens, it is automatically committed, though you can disable this with --no-commit if you need to edit it beforehand (for instance, if you rename function foo to bar, and someone else adds new code that calls foo, it will merge cleanly, but produce a broken tree, so you may want to clean that up as part of the merge commit in order to avoid having any broken commits).

The final possibility is that there's a real merge, and there are conflicts. In this case, Git will do as much of the merge as it can, and produce files with conflict markers (<<<<<<<, =======, and >>>>>>>) in your working copy. In the index (also known as the "staging area"; the place where files are stored by git add before committing them), you will have 3 versions of each file with conflicts; there is the original version of the file from the ancestor of the two branches you are merging, the version from HEAD (your side of the merge), and the version from the remote branch.

In order to resolve the conflict, you can either edit the file that is in your working copy, removing the conflict markers and fixing the code up so that it works. Or, you can check out the version from one or the other sides of the merge, using git checkout --ours or git checkout --theirs. Once you have put the file into the state you want it, you indicate that you are done merging the file and it is ready to commit using git add, and then you can commit the merge with git commit.

Java check to see if a variable has been initialized

Instance variables or fields, along with static variables, are assigned default values based on the variable type:

  • int: 0
  • char: \u0000 or 0
  • double: 0.0
  • boolean: false
  • reference: null

Just want to clarify that local variables (ie. declared in block, eg. method, for loop, while loop, try-catch, etc.) are not initialized to default values and must be explicitly initialized.

java.net.ConnectException: localhost/127.0.0.1:8080 - Connection refused

You just have to use your local IP address:using the cmd command "ipconfig" and your server port number like this:

String webServiceUrl = "http://192.168.X.X:your_local_server_port/your_web_service_name.php"

And make sure you did set the internet permission in your project manifest

It's working perfectly for me

Initialize class fields in constructor or at declaration?

I normally try the constructor to do nothing but getting the dependencies and initializing the related instance members with them. This will make you life easier if you want to unit test your classes.

If the value you are going to assign to an instance variable does not get influenced by any of the parameters you are going to pass to you constructor then assign it at declaration time.

What does the SQL Server Error "String Data, Right Truncation" mean and how do I fix it?

I got around the issue by using a convert on the "?", so my code looks like convert(char(50),?) and that got rid of the truncation error.

How can I stop python.exe from closing immediately after I get an output?

You can't - globally, i.e. for every python program. And this is a good thing - Python is great for scripting (automating stuff), and scripts should be able to run without any user interaction at all.

However, you can always ask for input at the end of your program, effectively keeping the program alive until you press return. Use input("prompt: ") in Python 3 (or raw_input("promt: ") in Python 2). Or get used to running your programs from the command line (i.e. python mine.py), the program will exit but its output remains visible.

How to create a new img tag with JQuery, with the src and id from a JavaScript object?

You save some bytes by avoiding the .attr altogether by passing the properties to the jQuery constructor:

var img = $('<img />',
             { id: 'Myid',
               src: 'MySrc.gif', 
               width: 300
             })
              .appendTo($('#YourDiv'));

How to specify the current directory as path in VBA?

I thought I had misunderstood but I was right. In this scenario, it will be ActiveWorkbook.Path

But the main issue was not here. The problem was with these 2 lines of code

strFile = Dir(strPath & "*.csv")

Which should have written as

strFile = Dir(strPath & "\*.csv")

and

With .QueryTables.Add(Connection:="TEXT;" & strPath & strFile, _

Which should have written as

With .QueryTables.Add(Connection:="TEXT;" & strPath & "\" & strFile, _

jQuery click event not working after adding class

Since the class is added dynamically, you need to use event delegation to register the event handler

    alert(liId);        
});

If else in stored procedure sql server

Thank you all for your answers but I figured out how to do it and the final procedure looks like that :

Create Procedure sp_ADD_RESPONSABLE_EXTRANET_CLIENT
(
@ParLngId int output
)
as
Begin
if not exists (Select ParLngId from T_Param where ParStrIndex = 'RES' and ParStrP2 = 'Web')
    Begin
            INSERT INTO T_Param values('RES','¤ExtranetClient', 'ECli', 'Web', 1, 1, Null, Null, 'non', 'ExtranetClient', 'ExtranetClient', 25032, Null, '[email protected]', 'Extranet-Client', Null, 27, Null, Null, Null, Null, Null, Null, Null, Null, 1, Null, Null, 0 )
            SET @ParLngId = @@IDENTITY
    End
Else
    Begin
            SET @ParLngId = (Select top 1 ParLngId from T_Param where ParStrNom = 'Extranet Client')
            Return @ParLngId
    End   
End

So the thing that I found out and which made it works is:

if not exists

It allows us to use a boolean instead of Null or 0 or a number resulted of count()

alert a variable value

If I'm understanding your question and code correctly, then I want to first mention three things before sharing my code/version of a solution. First, for both name and value you probably shouldn't be using the getAttribute() method because they are, themselves, properties of (the variable named) inputs (at a given index of i). Secondly, the variable that you are trying to alert is one of a select handful of terms in JavaScript that are designated as 'reserved keywords' or simply "reserved words". As you can see in/on this list (on the link), new is clearly a reserved word in JS and should never be used as a variable name. For more information, simply google 'reserved words in JavaScript'. Third and finally, in your alert statement itself, you neglected to include a semicolon. That and that alone can sometimes be enough for your code not to run as expected. [Aside: I'm not saying this as advice but more as observation: JavaScript will almost always forgive and allow having too many and/or unnecessary semicolons, but generally JavaScript is also equally if not moreso merciless if/when missing (any of the) necessary, required semicolons. Therefore, best practice is, of course, to add the semicolons only at all of the required points and exclude them in all other circumstances. But practically speaking, if in doubt, it probably will not hurt things by adding/including an extra one but will hurt by ignoring a mandatory one. General rules are all declarations and assignments end with a semicolon (such as variable assignments, alerts, console.log statements, etc.) but most/all expressions do not (such as for loops, while loops, function expressions Just Saying.] But I digress..

    function whenWindowIsReady() {
        var inputs = document.getElementsByTagName('input');
        var lengthOfInputs = inputs.length; // this is for optimization
        for (var i = 0; i < lengthOfInputs; i++) {
            if (inputs[i].name === "ans") {   
                var ansIsName = inputs[i].value;
                alert(ansIsName);
            }
        }
    }

    window.onReady = whenWindowIsReady();

PS: You used a double assignment operator in your conditional statement, and in this case it doesn't matter since you are comparing Strings, but generally I believe the triple assignment operator is the way to go and is more accurate as that would check if the values are EQUIVALENT WITHOUT TYPE CONVERSION, which can be very important for other instances of comparisons, so it's important to point out. For example, 1=="1" and 0==false are both true (when usually you'd want those to return false since the value on the left was not the same as the value on the right, without type conversion) but 1==="1" and 0===false are both false as you'd expect because the triple operator doesn't rely on type conversion when making comparisons. Keep that in mind for the future.

How To Include CSS and jQuery in my WordPress plugin?

You can add scripts and css in back end and front end with this following code: This is simple class and the functions are called in object oriented way.

class AtiBlogTest {
function register(){
    //for backend
    add_action( 'admin_enqueue_scripts', array($this,'backendEnqueue'));
    //for frontend
    add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', array($this,'frontendEnqueue'));
}
function backendEnqueue(){
    wp_enqueue_style( 'AtiBlogTestStyle', plugins_url( '/assets/css/admin_mystyle.css', __FILE__ ));
    wp_enqueue_script( 'AtiBlogTestScript', plugins_url( '/assets/js/admin_myscript.js', __FILE__ ));
}
function frontendEnqueue(){
    wp_enqueue_style( 'AtiBlogTestStyle', plugins_url( '/assets/css/front_mystyle.css', __FILE__ ));
    wp_enqueue_script( 'AtiBlogTestScript', plugins_url( '/assets/js/front_myscript.js', __FILE__ ));
}
}

if(class_exists('AtiBlogTest')){
$atiblogtest=new AtiBlogTest();
$atiblogtest->register();
}

Transform only one axis to log10 scale with ggplot2

The simplest is to just give the 'trans' (formerly 'formatter' argument the name of the log function:

m + geom_boxplot() + scale_y_continuous(trans='log10')

EDIT: Or if you don't like that, then either of these appears to give different but useful results:

m <- ggplot(diamonds, aes(y = price, x = color), log="y")
m + geom_boxplot() 
m <- ggplot(diamonds, aes(y = price, x = color), log10="y")
m + geom_boxplot()

EDIT2 & 3: Further experiments (after discarding the one that attempted successfully to put "$" signs in front of logged values):

fmtExpLg10 <- function(x) paste(round_any(10^x/1000, 0.01) , "K $", sep="")
ggplot(diamonds, aes(color, log10(price))) + 
  geom_boxplot() + 
  scale_y_continuous("Price, log10-scaling", trans = fmtExpLg10)

alt text

Note added mid 2017 in comment about package syntax change:

scale_y_continuous(formatter = 'log10') is now scale_y_continuous(trans = 'log10') (ggplot2 v2.2.1)

Get record counts for all tables in MySQL database

SELECT SUM(TABLE_ROWS) 
     FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.TABLES 
     WHERE TABLE_SCHEMA = '{your_db}';

Note from the docs though: For InnoDB tables, the row count is only a rough estimate used in SQL optimization. You'll need to use COUNT(*) for exact counts (which is more expensive).

How to insert element into arrays at specific position?

This is an old question, but I posted a comment in 2014 and frequently come back to this. I thought I would leave a full answer. This isn't the shortest solution but it is quite easy to understand.

Insert a new value into an associative array, at a numbered position, preserving keys, and preserving order.

$columns = array(
    'id' => 'ID',
    'name' => 'Name',
    'email' => 'Email',
    'count' => 'Number of posts'
);

$columns = array_merge(
    array_slice( $columns, 0, 3, true ),     // The first 3 items from the old array
    array( 'subscribed' => 'Subscribed' ),   // New value to add after the 3rd item
    array_slice( $columns, 3, null, true )   // Other items after the 3rd
);

print_r( $columns );

/*
Array ( 
    [id] => ID 
    [name] => Name 
    [email] => Email 
    [subscribed] => Subscribed 
    [count] => Number of posts 
)
*/

Adding a library/JAR to an Eclipse Android project

If you are using the ADT version 22, you need to check the android dependencies and android private libraries in the order&Export tab in the project build path

How to install grunt and how to build script with it

Some time we need to set PATH variable for WINDOWS

%USERPROFILE%\AppData\Roaming\npm

After that test with where grunt

Note: Do not forget to close the command prompt window and reopen it.

mcrypt is deprecated, what is the alternative?

You can use phpseclib pollyfill package. You can not use open ssl or libsodium for encrypt/decrypt with rijndael 256. Another issue, you don't need replacement any code.

Sprintf equivalent in Java

Since Java 13 you have formatted 1 method on String, which was added along with text blocks as a preview feature 2. You can use it instead of String.format()

Assertions.assertEquals(
   "%s %d %.3f".formatted("foo", 123, 7.89),
   "foo 123 7.890"
);

Format number as percent in MS SQL Server

In SQL Server 2012 and later, there is the FORMAT() function. You can pass it a 'P' parameter for percentage. For example:

SELECT FORMAT((37.0/38.0),'P') as [Percentage] -- 97.37 %

To support percentage decimal precision, you can use P0 for no decimals (whole-numbers) or P3 for 3 decimals (97.368%).

SELECT FORMAT((37.0/38.0),'P0') as [WholeNumberPercentage] -- 97 %
SELECT FORMAT((37.0/38.0),'P3') as [ThreeDecimalsPercentage] -- 97.368 %

CSS: How to position two elements on top of each other, without specifying a height?

Great answer, "mu is too short". I was seeking the exact same thing, and after reading your post I found a solution that fitted my problem.

I was having two elements of the exact same size and wanted to stack them. As each have same size, what I could do was to make

position: absolute;
top: 0px;
left: 0px;

on only the last element. This way the first element is inserted correctly, "pushing" the parents height, and the second element is placed on top.

Hopes this helps other people trying to stacking 2+ elements with same (unknown) height.

How to modify existing XML file with XmlDocument and XmlNode in C#

You need to do something like this:

// instantiate XmlDocument and load XML from file
XmlDocument doc = new XmlDocument();
doc.Load(@"D:\test.xml");

// get a list of nodes - in this case, I'm selecting all <AID> nodes under
// the <GroupAIDs> node - change to suit your needs
XmlNodeList aNodes = doc.SelectNodes("/Equipment/DataCollections/GroupAIDs/AID");

// loop through all AID nodes
foreach (XmlNode aNode in aNodes)
{
   // grab the "id" attribute
   XmlAttribute idAttribute = aNode.Attributes["id"];

   // check if that attribute even exists...
   if (idAttribute != null)
   {
      // if yes - read its current value
      string currentValue = idAttribute.Value;

      // here, you can now decide what to do - for demo purposes,
      // I just set the ID value to a fixed value if it was empty before
      if (string.IsNullOrEmpty(currentValue))
      {
         idAttribute.Value = "515";
      }
   }
}

// save the XmlDocument back to disk
doc.Save(@"D:\test2.xml");

Add numpy array as column to Pandas data frame

Here is other example:

import numpy as np
import pandas as pd

""" This just creates a list of touples, and each element of the touple is an array"""
a = [ (np.random.randint(1,10,10), np.array([0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9]))  for i in 
range(0,10) ]

""" Panda DataFrame will allocate each of the arrays , contained as a touple 
element , as column"""
df = pd.DataFrame(data =a,columns=['random_num','sequential_num'])

The secret in general is to allocate the data in the form a = [ (array_11, array_12,...,array_1n),...,(array_m1,array_m2,...,array_mn) ] and panda DataFrame will order the data in n columns of arrays. Of course , arrays of arrays could be used instead of touples, in that case the form would be : a = [ [array_11, array_12,...,array_1n],...,[array_m1,array_m2,...,array_mn] ]

This is the output if you print(df) from the code above:

                       random_num                  sequential_num
0  [7, 9, 2, 2, 5, 3, 5, 3, 1, 4]  [0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9]
1  [8, 7, 9, 8, 1, 2, 2, 6, 6, 3]  [0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9]
2  [3, 4, 1, 2, 2, 1, 4, 2, 6, 1]  [0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9]
3  [3, 1, 1, 1, 6, 2, 8, 6, 7, 9]  [0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9]
4  [4, 2, 8, 5, 4, 1, 2, 2, 3, 3]  [0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9]
5  [3, 2, 7, 4, 1, 5, 1, 4, 6, 3]  [0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9]
6  [5, 7, 3, 9, 7, 8, 4, 1, 3, 1]  [0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9]
7  [7, 4, 7, 6, 2, 6, 3, 2, 5, 6]  [0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9]
8  [3, 1, 6, 3, 2, 1, 5, 2, 2, 9]  [0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9]
9  [7, 2, 3, 9, 5, 5, 8, 6, 9, 8]  [0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9]

Other variation of the example above:

b = [ (i,"text",[14, 5,], np.array([0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9]))  for i in 
range(0,10) ]
df = pd.DataFrame(data=b,columns=['Number','Text','2Elemnt_array','10Element_array'])

Output of df:

   Number  Text 2Elemnt_array                 10Element_array
0       0  text       [14, 5]  [0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9]
1       1  text       [14, 5]  [0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9]
2       2  text       [14, 5]  [0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9]
3       3  text       [14, 5]  [0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9]
4       4  text       [14, 5]  [0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9]
5       5  text       [14, 5]  [0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9]
6       6  text       [14, 5]  [0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9]
7       7  text       [14, 5]  [0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9]
8       8  text       [14, 5]  [0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9]
9       9  text       [14, 5]  [0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9]

If you want to add other columns of arrays, then:

df['3Element_array']=[([1,2,3]),([1,2,3]),([1,2,3]),([1,2,3]),([1,2,3]),([1,2,3]),([1,2,3]),([1,2,3]),([1,2,3]),([1,2,3])]

The final output of df will be:

   Number  Text 2Elemnt_array                 10Element_array 3Element_array
0       0  text       [14, 5]  [0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9]      [1, 2, 3]
1       1  text       [14, 5]  [0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9]      [1, 2, 3]
2       2  text       [14, 5]  [0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9]      [1, 2, 3]
3       3  text       [14, 5]  [0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9]      [1, 2, 3]
4       4  text       [14, 5]  [0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9]      [1, 2, 3]
5       5  text       [14, 5]  [0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9]      [1, 2, 3]
6       6  text       [14, 5]  [0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9]      [1, 2, 3]
7       7  text       [14, 5]  [0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9]      [1, 2, 3]
8       8  text       [14, 5]  [0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9]      [1, 2, 3]
9       9  text       [14, 5]  [0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9]      [1, 2, 3]

Does Go have "if x in" construct similar to Python?

Another option is using a map as a set. You use just the keys and having the value be something like a boolean that's always true. Then you can easily check if the map contains the key or not. This is useful if you need the behavior of a set, where if you add a value multiple times it's only in the set once.

Here's a simple example where I add random numbers as keys to a map. If the same number is generated more than once it doesn't matter, it will only appear in the final map once. Then I use a simple if check to see if a key is in the map or not.

package main

import (
    "fmt"
    "math/rand"
)

func main() {
    var MAX int = 10

    m := make(map[int]bool)

    for i := 0; i <= MAX; i++ {
        m[rand.Intn(MAX)] = true
    }

    for i := 0; i <= MAX; i++ {
        if _, ok := m[i]; ok {
            fmt.Printf("%v is in map\n", i)
        } else {
            fmt.Printf("%v is not in map\n", i)
        }
    }
}

Here it is on the go playground

including parameters in OPENQUERY

We can use execute method instead of openquery. Its code is much cleaner. I had to get linked server query result in a variable. I used following code.

CREATE TABLE #selected_store
(
   code VARCHAR(250),
   id INT
)
declare @storeId as integer = 25
insert into #selected_store (id, code) execute('SELECT store_id, code from quickstartproductionnew.store where store_id = ?', @storeId) at [MYSQL]  

declare @code as varchar(100)
select @code = code from #selected_store
select @code
drop table #selected_store

Note:

if your query doesn't work, please make sure remote proc transaction promotion is set as false for your linked server connection.

EXEC master.dbo.sp_serveroption
       @server = N'{linked server name}',
       @optname = N'remote proc transaction promotion',
       @optvalue = N'false';

How to print last two columns using awk

awk '{print $NF-1, $NF}'  inputfile

Note: this works only if at least two columns exist. On records with one column you will get a spurious "-1 column1"

Missing Authentication Token while accessing API Gateway?

If you enable AWS_IAM authentication you must sign your request with AWS credentials using AWS Signature Version 4.

Note: signing into the AWS console does not automatically sign your browser's requests to your API.

Prefer composition over inheritance?

While in short words I would agree with "Prefer composition over inheritance", very often for me it sounds like "prefer potatoes over coca-cola". There are places for inheritance and places for composition. You need to understand difference, then this question will disappear. What it really means for me is "if you are going to use inheritance - think again, chances are you need composition".

You should prefer potatoes over coca cola when you want to eat, and coca cola over potatoes when you want to drink.

Creating a subclass should mean more than just a convenient way to call superclass methods. You should use inheritance when subclass "is-a" super class both structurally and functionally, when it can be used as superclass and you are going to use that. If it is not the case - it is not inheritance, but something else. Composition is when your objects consists of another, or has some relationship to them.

So for me it looks like if someone does not know if he needs inheritance or composition, the real problem is that he does not know if he want to drink or to eat. Think about your problem domain more, understand it better.

How to resolve 'unrecognized selector sent to instance'?

Set flag -ObjC in Other linker Flag in your Project setting... (Not in the static library project but the project you that is using static library...) And make sure that in Project setting Configuration is set to All Configuration

How to access shared folder without giving username and password

I found one way to access the shared folder without giving the username and password.

We need to change the share folder protect settings in the machine where the folder has been shared.

Go to Control Panel > Network and sharing center > Change advanced sharing settings > Enable Turn Off password protect sharing option.

By doing the above settings we can access the shared folder without any username/password.

How to synchronize a static variable among threads running different instances of a class in Java?

We can also use ReentrantLock to achieve the synchronization for static variables.

public class Test {

    private static int count = 0;
    private static final ReentrantLock reentrantLock = new ReentrantLock(); 
    public void foo() {  
        reentrantLock.lock();
        count = count + 1;
        reentrantLock.unlock();
    }  
}

How to convert a string or integer to binary in Ruby?

Picking up on bta's lookup table idea, you can create the lookup table with a block. Values get generated when they are first accessed and stored for later:

>> lookup_table = Hash.new { |h, i| h[i] = i.to_s(2) }
=> {}
>> lookup_table[1]
=> "1"
>> lookup_table[2]
=> "10"
>> lookup_table[20]
=> "10100"
>> lookup_table[200]
=> "11001000"
>> lookup_table
=> {1=>"1", 200=>"11001000", 2=>"10", 20=>"10100"}

Iterate through a C++ Vector using a 'for' loop

Is there any reason I don't see this in C++? Is it bad practice?

No. It is not a bad practice, but the following approach renders your code certain flexibility.

Usually, pre-C++11 the code for iterating over container elements uses iterators, something like:

std::vector<int>::iterator it = vector.begin();

This is because it makes the code more flexible.

All standard library containers support and provide iterators. If at a later point of development you need to switch to another container, then this code does not need to be changed.

Note: Writing code which works with every possible standard library container is not as easy as it might seem to be.

What exactly does the Access-Control-Allow-Credentials header do?

By default, CORS does not include cookies on cross-origin requests. This is different from other cross-origin techniques such as JSON-P. JSON-P always includes cookies with the request, and this behavior can lead to a class of vulnerabilities called cross-site request forgery, or CSRF.

In order to reduce the chance of CSRF vulnerabilities in CORS, CORS requires both the server and the client to acknowledge that it is ok to include cookies on requests. Doing this makes cookies an active decision, rather than something that happens passively without any control.

The client code must set the withCredentials property on the XMLHttpRequest to true in order to give permission.

However, this header alone is not enough. The server must respond with the Access-Control-Allow-Credentials header. Responding with this header to true means that the server allows cookies (or other user credentials) to be included on cross-origin requests.

You also need to make sure your browser isn't blocking third-party cookies if you want cross-origin credentialed requests to work.

Note that regardless of whether you are making same-origin or cross-origin requests, you need to protect your site from CSRF (especially if your request includes cookies).

CSS - center two images in css side by side

You can't have two elements with the same ID.

Aside from that, you are defining them as block elemnts, meaning (in layman's terms) that they are being forced to appear on their own line.

Instead, try something like this:

<div class="link"><a href="..."><img src="..."... /></a></div>
<div class="link"><a href="..."><img src="..."... /></a></div>

CSS:

.link {
    width: 50%;
    float: left;
    text-align: center;
}

Excel Calculate the date difference from today from a cell of "7/6/2012 10:26:42"

*In all instances the # refers to the cell number

You really don't need the datedif functions; for example:

I'm working on a spreadsheet that tracks benefit eligibility for employees.

I have their hire dates in the "A" column and in column B is =(TODAY()-A#)

And you just format the cell to display a general number instead of date.

It also works very easily the other way: I also converted that number into showing when the actual date is that they get their benefits instead of how many days are left, and that is simply

=(90-B#)+TODAY()

Just make sure you're formatting cells as general numbers or dates accordingly.

Hope this helps.

Making the Android emulator run faster

On this year google I/O (2011), Google demonstrated a faster emulator. The problem is not so much on the byte code between ARM and x86 but the software rendering performed by QEMU. They bypass the rendering of QEMU and send the rendering directly to an X server I believe. They showed a car game with really good performace and fps.

I wonder when that will be available for developers...

PIG how to count a number of rows in alias

COUNT is part of pig see the manual

LOGS= LOAD 'log';
LOGS_GROUP= GROUP LOGS ALL;
LOG_COUNT = FOREACH LOGS_GROUP GENERATE COUNT(LOGS);

SQL Server Subquery returned more than 1 value. This is not permitted when the subquery follows =, !=, <, <= , >, >=

Even after 9 years of the original post, this helped me.

If you are receiving these types of errors without any clue, there should be a trigger, function related to the table, and obviously it should end up with an SP, or function with selecting/filtering data NOT USING Primary Unique column. If you are searching/filtering using the Primary Unique column there won't be any multiple results. Especially when you are assigning value for a declared variable. The SP never gives you en error but only an runtime error.

 "System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException (0x80131904): Subquery returned more than 1 value. This is not permitted when the subquery follows =, !=, <, <= , >, >= or when the subquery is used as an expression.
    The statement has been terminated."

In my case obviously there was no clue, but only this error message. There was a trigger connected to the table and the table updating by the trigger also had another trigger likewise it ended up with two triggers and in the end with an SP. The SP was having a select clause which was resulting in multiple rows.

SET @Variable1 =(
        SELECT column_gonna_asign
        FROM dbo.your_db
        WHERE Non_primary_non_unique_key= @Variable2

If this returns multiple rows, you are in trouble.

Rename multiple columns by names

Another solution for dataframes which are not too large is (building on @thelatemail answer):

x <- data.frame(q=1,w=2,e=3)

> x
  q w e
1 1 2 3

colnames(x) <- c("A","w","B")

> x
  A w B
1 1 2 3

Alternatively, you can also use:

names(x) <- c("C","w","D")

> x
  C w D
1 1 2 3

Furthermore, you can also rename a subset of the columnnames:

names(x)[2:3] <- c("E","F")

> x
  C E F
1 1 2 3

Sort an array in Java

If you want to build the Quick sort algorithm yourself and have more understanding of how it works check the below code :

1- Create sort class

class QuickSort {
    private int input[];
    private int length;

    public void sort(int[] numbers) {
        if (numbers == null || numbers.length == 0) {
            return;
        }
        this.input = numbers;
        length = numbers.length;
        quickSort(0, length - 1);
    }
    /*
     * This method implements in-place quicksort algorithm recursively.
     */

    private void quickSort(int low, int high) {
        int i = low;
        int j = high;

        // pivot is middle index
        int pivot = input[low + (high - low) / 2];

        // Divide into two arrays
        while (i <= j) {
            /**
             * As shown in above image, In each iteration, we will identify a
             * number from left side which is greater then the pivot value, and
             * a number from right side which is less then the pivot value. Once
             * search is complete, we can swap both numbers.
             */
            while (input[i] < pivot) {
                i++;
            }
            while (input[j] > pivot) {
                j--;
            }
            if (i <= j) {
                swap(i, j);
                // move index to next position on both sides
                i++;
                j--;
            }
        }

        // calls quickSort() method recursively
        if (low < j) {
            quickSort(low, j);
        }

        if (i < high) {
            quickSort(i, high);
        }
    }

    private void swap(int i, int j) {
        int temp = input[i];
        input[i] = input[j];
        input[j] = temp;
    }
}

2- Send your unsorted array to Quicksort class

import java.util.Arrays;


public class QuickSortDemo {

    public static void main(String args[]) {
        // unsorted integer array
        int[] unsorted = {6, 5, 3, 1, 8, 7, 2, 4};
        System.out.println("Unsorted array :" + Arrays.toString(unsorted));
        QuickSort algorithm = new QuickSort();
        // sorting integer array using quicksort algorithm
        algorithm.sort(unsorted);
        // printing sorted array
        System.out.println("Sorted array :" + Arrays.toString(unsorted));
    }
}

3- Output

Unsorted array :[6, 5, 3, 1, 8, 7, 2, 4] 
Sorted array :[1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8]

How to construct a set out of list items in python?

Here is another solution:

>>>list1=["C:\\","D:\\","E:\\","C:\\"]
>>>set1=set(list1)
>>>set1
set(['E:\\', 'D:\\', 'C:\\'])

In this code I have used the set method in order to turn it into a set and then it removed all duplicate values from the list

Jenkins: Is there any way to cleanup Jenkins workspace?

IMPORTANT: It is safe to remove the workspace for a given Jenkins job as long as the job is not currently running!

NOTE: I am assuming your $JENKINS_HOME is set to the default: /var/jenkins_home.

Clean up one workspace

rm -rf /var/jenkins_home/workspaces/<workspace>

Clean up all workspaces

rm -rf /var/jenkins_home/workspaces/*

Clean up all workspaces with a few exceptions

This one uses grep to create a whitelist:

ls /var/jenkins_home/workspace \ 
  | grep -v -E '(job-to-skip|another-job-to-skip)$' \
  | xargs -I {} rm -rf /var/jenkins_home/workspace/{}

Clean up 10 largest workspaces

This one uses du and sort to list workspaces in order of largest to smallest. Then, it uses head to grab the first 10:

du -d 1 /var/jenkins_home/workspace \
  | sort -n -r \
  | head -n 10 \
  | xargs -I {} rm -rf /var/jenkins_home/workspace/{}

Operation must use an updatable query. (Error 3073) Microsoft Access

Today in my MS-Access 2003 with an ODBC tabla pointing to a SQL Server 2000 with sa password gave me the same error.
I defined a Primary Key on the table in the SQL Server database, and the issue was gone.

Why am I seeing "TypeError: string indices must be integers"?

data is a dict object. So, iterate over it like this:

Python 2

for key, value in data.iteritems():
    print key, value

Python 3

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

Hashmap does not work with int, char

Generics only support object types, not primitives. Unlike C++ templates, generics don't involve code generatation and there is only one HashMap code regardless of the number of generic types of it you use.

Trove4J gets around this by pre-generating selected collections to use primitives and supports TCharIntHashMap which to can wrap to support the Map<Character, Integer> if you need to.

TCharIntHashMap: An open addressed Map implementation for char keys and int values.

how to return a char array from a function in C

#include<stdio.h>
#include<string.h>
#include<stdlib.h>
char *substring(int i,int j,char *ch)
{
    int n,k=0;
    char *ch1;
    ch1=(char*)malloc((j-i+1)*1);
    n=j-i+1;

    while(k<n)
    {
        ch1[k]=ch[i];
        i++;k++;
    }

    return (char *)ch1;
}

int main()
{
    int i=0,j=2;
    char s[]="String";
    char *test;

    test=substring(i,j,s);
    printf("%s",test);
    free(test); //free the test 
    return 0;
}

This will compile fine without any warning

  1. #include stdlib.h
  2. pass test=substring(i,j,s);
  3. remove m as it is unused
  4. either declare char substring(int i,int j,char *ch) or define it before main

How to squash all git commits into one?

For me it worked like this: I had 4 commits in total, and used interactive rebase:

git rebase -i HEAD~3

The very first commit remains and i took 3 latest commits.

In case you're stuck in editor which appears next, you see smth like:

pick fda59df commit 1
pick x536897 commit 2
pick c01a668 commit 3

You have to take first commit and squash others onto it. What you should have is:

pick fda59df commit 1
squash x536897 commit 2
squash c01a668 commit 3

For that use INSERT key to change 'insert' and 'edit' mode.

To save and exit the editor use :wq. If your cursor is between those commit lines or somewhere else push ESC and try again.

As a result i had two commits: the very first which remained and the second with message "This is a combination of 3 commits.".

Check for details here: https://makandracards.com/makandra/527-squash-several-git-commits-into-a-single-commit

Resolving tree conflict

Basically, tree conflicts arise if there is some restructure in the folder structure on the branch. You need to delete the conflict folder and use svn clean once. Hope this solves your conflict.

How can I display just a portion of an image in HTML/CSS?

JS Fiddle demo, for experimentation.

To supplement the original answer – somewhat belatedly – I'm editing to show the use of clip-path, which has replaced the now-deprecated clip property.

The clip-path property allows a range of options (more-so than the original clip), of:

  • inset — rectangular/cuboid shapes, defined with four values as 'distance-from' (top right bottom left).
  • circlecircle(diameter at x-coordinate y-coordinate).
  • ellipseellipse(x-axis-length y-axis-length at x-coordinate y-coordinate).
  • polygon — defined by a series of x/y coordinates in relation to the element's origin of the top-left corner. As the path is closed automatically the realistic minimum number of points for a polygon should be three, any fewer (two) is a line or (one) is a point: polygon(x-coordinate1 y-coordinate1, x-coordinate2 y-coordinate2, x-coordinate3 y-coordinate3, [etc...]).
  • url — this can be either a local URL (using a CSS id-selector) or the URL of an external file (using a file-path) to identify an SVG, though I've not experimented with either (as yet), so I can offer no insight as to their benefit or caveat.

'was not declared in this scope' error

The scope of a variable is always the block it is inside. For example if you do something like

if(...)
{
     int y = 5; //y is created
} //y leaves scope, since the block ends.
else
{
     int y = 8; //y is created
} //y leaves scope, since the block ends.

cout << y << endl; //Gives error since y is not defined.

The solution is to define y outside of the if blocks

int y; //y is created

if(...)
{
     y = 5;
} 
else
{
     y = 8;
} 

cout << y << endl; //Ok

In your program you have to move the definition of y and c out of the if blocks into the higher scope. Your Function then would look like this:

//Using the Gaussian algorithm
int dayofweek(int date, int month, int year )
{
    int y, c;
    int d=date;

    if (month==1||month==2)
    {
         y=((year-1)%100);
         c=(year-1)/100;
    }
    else
    {
         y=year%100;
         c=year/100;
    }
int m=(month+9)%12+1;
int product=(d+(2.6*m-0.2)+y+y/4+c/4-2*c);
return product%7;
}

Replace negative values in an numpy array

Here's a way to do it in Python without NumPy. Create a function that returns what you want and use a list comprehension, or the map function.

>>> a = [1, 2, 3, -4, 5]

>>> def zero_if_negative(x):
...   if x < 0:
...     return 0
...   return x
...

>>> [zero_if_negative(x) for x in a]
[1, 2, 3, 0, 5]

>>> map(zero_if_negative, a)
[1, 2, 3, 0, 5]

How to delete a certain row from mysql table with same column values?

You must add an id that auto-increment for each row, after that you can delet the row by its id. so your table will have an unique id for each row and the id_user, id_product ecc...

Good ways to sort a queryset? - Django

Here's a way that allows for ties for the cut-off score.

author_count = Author.objects.count()
cut_off_score = Author.objects.order_by('-score').values_list('score')[min(30, author_count)]
top_authors = Author.objects.filter(score__gte=cut_off_score).order_by('last_name')

You may get more than 30 authors in top_authors this way and the min(30,author_count) is there incase you have fewer than 30 authors.

MySQL: Quick breakdown of the types of joins

I have 2 tables like this:

> SELECT * FROM table_a;
+------+------+
| id   | name |
+------+------+
|    1 | row1 |
|    2 | row2 |
+------+------+

> SELECT * FROM table_b;
+------+------+------+
| id   | name | aid  |
+------+------+------+
|    3 | row3 |    1 |
|    4 | row4 |    1 |
|    5 | row5 | NULL |
+------+------+------+

INNER JOIN cares about both tables

INNER JOIN cares about both tables, so you only get a row if both tables have one. If there is more than one matching pair, you get multiple rows.

> SELECT * FROM table_a a INNER JOIN table_b b ON a.id=b.aid;
+------+------+------+------+------+
| id   | name | id   | name | aid  |
+------+------+------+------+------+
|    1 | row1 |    3 | row3 | 1    |
|    1 | row1 |    4 | row4 | 1    |
+------+------+------+------+------+

It makes no difference to INNER JOIN if you reverse the order, because it cares about both tables:

> SELECT * FROM table_b b INNER JOIN table_a a ON a.id=b.aid;
+------+------+------+------+------+
| id   | name | aid  | id   | name |
+------+------+------+------+------+
|    3 | row3 | 1    |    1 | row1 |
|    4 | row4 | 1    |    1 | row1 |
+------+------+------+------+------+

You get the same rows, but the columns are in a different order because we mentioned the tables in a different order.

LEFT JOIN only cares about the first table

LEFT JOIN cares about the first table you give it, and doesn't care much about the second, so you always get the rows from the first table, even if there is no corresponding row in the second:

> SELECT * FROM table_a a LEFT JOIN table_b b ON a.id=b.aid;
+------+------+------+------+------+
| id   | name | id   | name | aid  |
+------+------+------+------+------+
|    1 | row1 |    3 | row3 | 1    |
|    1 | row1 |    4 | row4 | 1    |
|    2 | row2 | NULL | NULL | NULL |
+------+------+------+------+------+

Above you can see all rows of table_a even though some of them do not match with anything in table b, but not all rows of table_b - only ones that match something in table_a.

If we reverse the order of the tables, LEFT JOIN behaves differently:

> SELECT * FROM table_b b LEFT JOIN table_a a ON a.id=b.aid;
+------+------+------+------+------+
| id   | name | aid  | id   | name |
+------+------+------+------+------+
|    3 | row3 | 1    |    1 | row1 |
|    4 | row4 | 1    |    1 | row1 |
|    5 | row5 | NULL | NULL | NULL |
+------+------+------+------+------+

Now we get all rows of table_b, but only matching rows of table_a.

RIGHT JOIN only cares about the second table

a RIGHT JOIN b gets you exactly the same rows as b LEFT JOIN a. The only difference is the default order of the columns.

> SELECT * FROM table_a a RIGHT JOIN table_b b ON a.id=b.aid;
+------+------+------+------+------+
| id   | name | id   | name | aid  |
+------+------+------+------+------+
|    1 | row1 |    3 | row3 | 1    |
|    1 | row1 |    4 | row4 | 1    |
| NULL | NULL |    5 | row5 | NULL |
+------+------+------+------+------+

This is the same rows as table_b LEFT JOIN table_a, which we saw in the LEFT JOIN section.

Similarly:

> SELECT * FROM table_b b RIGHT JOIN table_a a ON a.id=b.aid;
+------+------+------+------+------+
| id   | name | aid  | id   | name |
+------+------+------+------+------+
|    3 | row3 | 1    |    1 | row1 |
|    4 | row4 | 1    |    1 | row1 |
| NULL | NULL | NULL |    2 | row2 |
+------+------+------+------+------+

Is the same rows as table_a LEFT JOIN table_b.

No join at all gives you copies of everything

If you write your tables with no JOIN clause at all, just separated by commas, you get every row of the first table written next to every row of the second table, in every possible combination:

> SELECT * FROM table_b b, table_a;
+------+------+------+------+------+
| id   | name | aid  | id   | name |
+------+------+------+------+------+
|    3 | row3 | 1    |    1 | row1 |
|    3 | row3 | 1    |    2 | row2 |
|    4 | row4 | 1    |    1 | row1 |
|    4 | row4 | 1    |    2 | row2 |
|    5 | row5 | NULL |    1 | row1 |
|    5 | row5 | NULL |    2 | row2 |
+------+------+------+------+------+

Android: Expand/collapse animation

Adding to Tom Esterez's excellent answer and Erik B's excellent update to it, I thought I'd post my own take, compacting the expand and contract methods into one. This way, you could for example have an action like this...

button.setOnClickListener(v -> expandCollapse(view));

... which calls the method below and letting it figure out what to do after each onClick()...

public static void expandCollapse(View view) {

    boolean expand = view.getVisibility() == View.GONE;
    Interpolator easeInOutQuart = PathInterpolatorCompat.create(0.77f, 0f, 0.175f, 1f);

    view.measure(
        View.MeasureSpec.makeMeasureSpec(((View) view.getParent()).getWidth(), View.MeasureSpec.EXACTLY),
        View.MeasureSpec.makeMeasureSpec(0, View.MeasureSpec.UNSPECIFIED)
    );

    int height = view.getMeasuredHeight();
    int duration = (int) (height/view.getContext().getResources().getDisplayMetrics().density);

    Animation animation = new Animation() {
        @Override protected void applyTransformation(float interpolatedTime, Transformation t) {
            if (expand) {
                view.getLayoutParams().height = 1;
                view.setVisibility(View.VISIBLE);
                if (interpolatedTime == 1) {
                    view.getLayoutParams().height = ViewGroup.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT;
                } else {
                    view.getLayoutParams().height = (int) (height * interpolatedTime);
                }
                view.requestLayout();
            } else {
                if (interpolatedTime == 1) {
                    view.setVisibility(View.GONE);
                } else {
                    view.getLayoutParams().height = height - (int) (height * interpolatedTime);
                    view.requestLayout();
                }
            }
        }
        @Override public boolean willChangeBounds() {
            return true;
        }
    };

    animation.setInterpolator(easeInOutQuart);
    animation.setDuration(duration);
    view.startAnimation(animation);

}

Query based on multiple where clauses in Firebase

Using Firebase's Query API, you might be tempted to try this:

// !!! THIS WILL NOT WORK !!!
ref
  .orderBy('genre')
  .startAt('comedy').endAt('comedy')
  .orderBy('lead')                  // !!! THIS LINE WILL RAISE AN ERROR !!!
  .startAt('Jack Nicholson').endAt('Jack Nicholson')
  .on('value', function(snapshot) { 
      console.log(snapshot.val()); 
  });

But as @RobDiMarco from Firebase says in the comments:

multiple orderBy() calls will throw an error

So my code above will not work.

I know of three approaches that will work.

1. filter most on the server, do the rest on the client

What you can do is execute one orderBy().startAt()./endAt() on the server, pull down the remaining data and filter that in JavaScript code on your client.

ref
  .orderBy('genre')
  .equalTo('comedy')
  .on('child_added', function(snapshot) { 
      var movie = snapshot.val();
      if (movie.lead == 'Jack Nicholson') {
          console.log(movie);
      }
  });

2. add a property that combines the values that you want to filter on

If that isn't good enough, you should consider modifying/expanding your data to allow your use-case. For example: you could stuff genre+lead into a single property that you just use for this filter.

"movie1": {
    "genre": "comedy",
    "name": "As good as it gets",
    "lead": "Jack Nicholson",
    "genre_lead": "comedy_Jack Nicholson"
}, //...

You're essentially building your own multi-column index that way and can query it with:

ref
  .orderBy('genre_lead')
  .equalTo('comedy_Jack Nicholson')
  .on('child_added', function(snapshot) { 
      var movie = snapshot.val();
      console.log(movie);
  });

David East has written a library called QueryBase that helps with generating such properties.

You could even do relative/range queries, let's say that you want to allow querying movies by category and year. You'd use this data structure:

"movie1": {
    "genre": "comedy",
    "name": "As good as it gets",
    "lead": "Jack Nicholson",
    "genre_year": "comedy_1997"
}, //...

And then query for comedies of the 90s with:

ref
  .orderBy('genre_year')
  .startAt('comedy_1990')
  .endAt('comedy_2000')
  .on('child_added', function(snapshot) { 
      var movie = snapshot.val();
      console.log(movie);
  });

If you need to filter on more than just the year, make sure to add the other date parts in descending order, e.g. "comedy_1997-12-25". This way the lexicographical ordering that Firebase does on string values will be the same as the chronological ordering.

This combining of values in a property can work with more than two values, but you can only do a range filter on the last value in the composite property.

A very special variant of this is implemented by the GeoFire library for Firebase. This library combines the latitude and longitude of a location into a so-called Geohash, which can then be used to do realtime range queries on Firebase.

3. create a custom index programmatically

Yet another alternative is to do what we've all done before this new Query API was added: create an index in a different node:

  "movies"
      // the same structure you have today
  "by_genre"
      "comedy"
          "by_lead"
              "Jack Nicholson"
                  "movie1"
              "Jim Carrey"
                  "movie3"
      "Horror"
          "by_lead"
              "Jack Nicholson"
                  "movie2"
      

There are probably more approaches. For example, this answer highlights an alternative tree-shaped custom index: https://stackoverflow.com/a/34105063


If none of these options work for you, but you still want to store your data in Firebase, you can also consider using its Cloud Firestore database.

Cloud Firestore can handle multiple equality filters in a single query, but only one range filter. Under the hood it essentially uses the same query model, but it's like it auto-generates the composite properties for you. See Firestore's documentation on compound queries.

Create multiple threads and wait all of them to complete

Most proposed answers don't take into account a time-out interval, which is very important to prevent a possible deadlock. Next is my sample code. (Note that I'm primarily a Win32 developer, and that's how I'd do it there.)

//'arrRunningThreads' = List<Thread>

//Wait for all threads
const int knmsMaxWait = 3 * 1000;           //3 sec timeout
int nmsBeginTicks = Environment.TickCount;
foreach(Thread thrd in arrRunningThreads)
{
    //See time left
    int nmsElapsed = Environment.TickCount - nmsBeginTicks;
    int nmsRemain = knmsMaxWait - nmsElapsed;
    if(nmsRemain < 0)
        nmsRemain = 0;

    //Then wait for thread to exit
    if(!thrd.Join(nmsRemain))
    {
        //It didn't exit in time, terminate it
        thrd.Abort();

        //Issue a debugger warning
        Debug.Assert(false, "Terminated thread");
    }
}

Bash script to calculate time elapsed

Either $(()) or $[] will work for computing the result of an arithmetic operation. You're using $() which is simply taking the string and evaluating it as a command. It's a bit of a subtle distinction. Hope this helps.

As tink pointed out in the comments on this answer, $[] is deprecated, and $(()) should be favored.

Serialize and Deserialize Json and Json Array in Unity

Like @Maximiliangerhardt said, MiniJson do not have the capability to deserialize properly. I used JsonFx and works like a charm. Works with the []

player[] p = JsonReader.Deserialize<player[]>(serviceData);
Debug.Log(p[0].playerId +" "+ p[0].playerLoc+"--"+ p[1].playerId + " " + p[1].playerLoc+"--"+ p[2].playerId + " " + p[2].playerLoc);

Python regex to match dates

Using this regular expression you can validate different kinds of Date/Time samples, just a little change is needed.

^\d\d\d\d/(0?[1-9]|1[0-2])/(0?[1-9]|[12][0-9]|3[01]) (00|[0-9]|1[0-9]|2[0-3]):([0-9]|[0-5][0-9]):([0-9]|[0-5][0-9])$ -->validate this: 2018/7/12 13:00:00

for your format you cad change it to:

^(0?[1-9]|[12][0-9]|3[01])/(0?[1-9]|1[0-2])/\d\d$ --> validates this: 11/12/98

How to get key names from JSON using jq

You can use:

$ jq 'keys' file.json
$ cat file.json:
{ "Archiver-Version" : "Plexus Archiver", "Build-Id" : "", "Build-Jdk" : "1.7.0_07", "Build-Number" : "", "Build-Tag" : "", "Built-By" : "cporter", "Created-By" : "Apache Maven", "Implementation-Title" : "northstar", "Implementation-Vendor-Id" : "com.test.testPack", "Implementation-Version" : "testBox", "Manifest-Version" : "1.0", "appname" : "testApp", "build-date" : "02-03-2014-13:41", "version" : "testBox" }

$ jq 'keys' file.json
[
  "Archiver-Version",
  "Build-Id",
  "Build-Jdk",
  "Build-Number",
  "Build-Tag",
  "Built-By",
  "Created-By",
  "Implementation-Title",
  "Implementation-Vendor-Id",
  "Implementation-Version",
  "Manifest-Version",
  "appname",
  "build-date",
  "version"
]

UPDATE: To create a BASH array using these keys:

Using BASH 4+:

mapfile -t arr < <(jq -r 'keys[]' ms.json)

On older BASH you can do:

arr=()
while IFS='' read -r line; do
   arr+=("$line")
done < <(jq 'keys[]' ms.json)

Then print it:

printf "%s\n" ${arr[@]}

"Archiver-Version"
"Build-Id"
"Build-Jdk"
"Build-Number"
"Build-Tag"
"Built-By"
"Created-By"
"Implementation-Title"
"Implementation-Vendor-Id"
"Implementation-Version"
"Manifest-Version"
"appname"
"build-date"
"version"

C: What is the difference between ++i and i++?

++i: is pre-increment the other is post-increment.

i++: gets the element and then increments it.
++i: increments i and then returns the element.

Example:

int i = 0;
printf("i: %d\n", i);
printf("i++: %d\n", i++);
printf("++i: %d\n", ++i);

Output:

i: 0
i++: 0
++i: 2

Python TypeError must be str not int

Python comes with numerous ways of formatting strings:

New style .format(), which supports a rich formatting mini-language:

>>> temperature = 10
>>> print("the furnace is now {} degrees!".format(temperature))
the furnace is now 10 degrees!

Old style % format specifier:

>>> print("the furnace is now %d degrees!" % temperature)
the furnace is now 10 degrees!

In Py 3.6 using the new f"" format strings:

>>> print(f"the furnace is now {temperature} degrees!")
the furnace is now 10 degrees!

Or using print()s default separator:

>>> print("the furnace is now", temperature, "degrees!")
the furnace is now 10 degrees!

And least effectively, construct a new string by casting it to a str() and concatenating:

>>> print("the furnace is now " + str(temperature) + " degrees!")
the furnace is now 10 degrees!

Or join()ing it:

>>> print(' '.join(["the furnace is now", str(temperature), "degrees!"]))
the furnace is now 10 degrees!

How to convert a column of DataTable to a List

1.Very Simple Code to iterate datatable and get columns in list.

2.code ==>>>

 foreach (DataColumn dataColumn in dataTable.Columns)
 {
    var list = dataTable.Rows.OfType<DataRow>()
     .Select(dataRow => dataRow.Field<string> 
       (dataColumn.ToString())).ToList();
 }

Unable to create/open lock file: /data/mongod.lock errno:13 Permission denied

My mongo (3.2.9) was installed on Ubuntu, and my log file had the following lines:

2016-09-28T11:32:07.821+0100 E STORAGE  [initandlisten] WiredTiger (13) [1475058727:821829][6785:0x7fa9684ecc80], file:WiredTiger.wt, connection: /var/lib/mongodb/WiredTiger.turtle: handle-open: open: Permission denied 
2016-09-28T11:32:07.822+0100 I -        [initandlisten] Assertion: 28595:13: Permission denied 
2016-09-28T11:32:07.822+0100 I STORAGE  [initandlisten] exception in initAndListen: 28595 13: Permission denied, terminating

2016-09-28T11:32:07.822+0100 I CONTROL [initandlisten] dbexit: rc: 100

So the problem was in permissions on /var/lib/mongodb folder.

sudo chown -R mongodb:mongodb /var/lib/mongodb/
sudo chmod -R 755 /var/lib/mongodb
  • Restart the server

Fixed it, although I do realise that may be not too secure (it's my own dev box I'm in my case), bit following the change both db and authentication worked.

"Permission Denied" trying to run Python on Windows 10

I experienced the same issue, but in addition to Python being blocked, all programs in the Scripts folder were too. The other answers about aliases, path and winpty didn't help.

I finally found that it was my antivirus (Avast) which decided overnight for some reason to just block all compiled python scripts for some reason.

The fix is fortunately easy: simply whitelist the whole Python directory. See here for a full explanation.
