How to Rotate a UIImage 90 degrees?

For Swift: Here is a simple extension to UIImage:

//ImageRotation.swift

import UIKit

extension UIImage {  
    public func imageRotatedByDegrees(degrees: CGFloat, flip: Bool) -> UIImage {
        let radiansToDegrees: (CGFloat) -> CGFloat = {
            return $0 * (180.0 / CGFloat(M_PI))
        }
        let degreesToRadians: (CGFloat) -> CGFloat = {
            return $0 / 180.0 * CGFloat(M_PI)
        }

        // calculate the size of the rotated view's containing box for our drawing space
        let rotatedViewBox = UIView(frame: CGRect(origin: CGPointZero, size: size))
        let t = CGAffineTransformMakeRotation(degreesToRadians(degrees));
        rotatedViewBox.transform = t
        let rotatedSize = rotatedViewBox.frame.size

        // Create the bitmap context
        UIGraphicsBeginImageContext(rotatedSize)
        let bitmap = UIGraphicsGetCurrentContext()

        // Move the origin to the middle of the image so we will rotate and scale around the center.
        CGContextTranslateCTM(bitmap, rotatedSize.width / 2.0, rotatedSize.height / 2.0);

        //   // Rotate the image context
        CGContextRotateCTM(bitmap, degreesToRadians(degrees));

        // Now, draw the rotated/scaled image into the context
        var yFlip: CGFloat

        if(flip){
            yFlip = CGFloat(-1.0)
        } else {
            yFlip = CGFloat(1.0)
        }

        CGContextScaleCTM(bitmap, yFlip, -1.0)
        CGContextDrawImage(bitmap, CGRectMake(-size.width / 2, -size.height / 2, size.width, size.height), CGImage)

        let newImage = UIGraphicsGetImageFromCurrentImageContext()
        UIGraphicsEndImageContext()

        return newImage
    }
}

(Source)

Use it with:

rotatedPhoto = rotatedPhoto?.imageRotatedByDegrees(90, flip: false)

The former will rotate an image and flip it if flip is set to true.

How to get a jqGrid cell value when editing

I've got a rather indirect way. Your data should have an unique id.

First, setting a formatter

$.extend(true, $.fn.fmatter, {          
numdata: function(cellvalue, options, rowdata){
    return '<span class="numData" data-num="'+rowdata.num+'">'+rowdata.num+'</span>';
}
});

Use this formatter in ColModel. To retrieve ID (e.g. selected row)

var grid = $("#grid"), 
    rowId = grid.getGridPara('selrow'),
    num = grid.find("#"+rowId+" span.numData").attr("data-num");

(or you can directly use .data() for latest jquery 1.4.4)

Adding a stylesheet to asp.net (using Visual Studio 2010)

Add your style here:

<%@ Master Language="C#" AutoEventWireup="true" CodeBehind="Site.master.cs" Inherits="BSC.SiteMaster" %>

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en">
<head runat="server">
    <title></title>
    <link href="~/Styles/Site.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
    <link href="~/Styles/NewStyle.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />

    <asp:ContentPlaceHolder ID="HeadContent" runat="server">
    </asp:ContentPlaceHolder>
</head>

Then in the page:

<asp:Table CssClass=NewStyleExampleClass runat="server" >

Subprocess changing directory

Another option based on this answer: https://stackoverflow.com/a/29269316/451710

This allows you to execute multiple commands (e.g cd) in the same process.

import subprocess

commands = '''
pwd
cd some-directory
pwd
cd another-directory
pwd
'''

process = subprocess.Popen('/bin/bash', stdin=subprocess.PIPE, stdout=subprocess.PIPE)
out, err = process.communicate(commands.encode('utf-8'))
print(out.decode('utf-8'))

Better way to right align text in HTML Table

if you have only two "kinds" of column styles - use one as TD and one as TH. Then, declare a class for the table and a sub-class for that table's THs and TDs. Then your HTML can be super efficient.

How to get process ID of background process?

You might also be able to use pstree:

pstree -p user

This typically gives a text representation of all the processes for the "user" and the -p option gives the process-id. It does not depend, as far as I understand, on having the processes be owned by the current shell. It also shows forks.

Invalid length for a Base-64 char array

The length of a base64 encoded string is always a multiple of 4. If it is not a multiple of 4, then = characters are appended until it is. A query string of the form ?name=value has problems when the value contains = charaters (some of them will be dropped, I don't recall the exact behavior). You may be able to get away with appending the right number of = characters before doing the base64 decode.

Edit 1

You may find that the value of UserNameToVerify has had "+"'s changed to " "'s so you may need to do something like so:

a = a.Replace(" ", "+");

This should get the length right;

int mod4 = a.Length % 4;
if (mod4 > 0 )
{
    a += new string('=', 4 - mod4);
}

Of course calling UrlEncode (as in LukeH's answer) should make this all moot.

How does "FOR" work in cmd batch file?

Mark's idea was good, but maybe forgot some path have spaces in them. Replacing ';' with '" "' instead would cut all paths into quoted strings.

set _path="%PATH:;=" "%"
for %%p in (%_path%) do if not "%%~p"=="" echo %%~p

So here, you have your paths displayed.

FOR command in cmd has a tedious learning curve, notably because how variables react within ()'s statements... you can assign any variables, but you can't read then back within the ()'s, unless you use the "setlocal ENABLEDELAYEDEXPANSION" statement, and therefore also use the variables with !!'s instead of %%'s (!_var!)

I currently exclusively script with cmd, for work, had to learn all this :)

Is False == 0 and True == 1 an implementation detail or is it guaranteed by the language?

In Python 2.x, it is not guaranteed at all:

>>> False = 5
>>> 0 == False
False

So it could change. In Python 3.x, True, False, and None are reserved words, so the above code would not work.

In general, with booleans you should assume that while False will always have an integer value of 0 (so long as you don't change it, as above), True could have any other value. I wouldn't necessarily rely on any guarantee that True==1, but on Python 3.x, this will always be the case, no matter what.

Spring can you autowire inside an abstract class?

What if you need any database operation in SuperGirl you would inject it again into SuperGirl.

I think the main idea is using the same object reference in different classes. So what about this:

//There is no annotation about Spring in the abstract part.
abstract class SuperMan {


    private final DatabaseService databaseService;

    public SuperMan(DatabaseService databaseService) {
     this.databaseService = databaseService;
    }

    abstract void Fly();

    protected void doSuperPowerAction(Thing thing) {

        //busy code

        databaseService.save(thing);

    }
}

@Component
public class SuperGirl extends SuperMan {

private final DatabaseService databaseService;

@Autowired
public SuperGirl (DatabaseService databaseService) {
     super(databaseService);
     this.databaseService = databaseService;
    }

@Override
public void Fly() {
    //busy code
}

public doSomethingSuperGirlDoes() {

    //busy code

    doSuperPowerAction(thing)

}

In my opinion, inject once run everywhere :)

WPF ListView turn off selection

Set the style of each ListViewItem to have Focusable set to false.

<ListView ItemsSource="{Binding Test}" >
    <ListView.ItemContainerStyle>
        <Style TargetType="{x:Type ListViewItem}">
            <Setter Property="Focusable" Value="False"/>
        </Style>
    </ListView.ItemContainerStyle>
</ListView>

IsNothing versus Is Nothing

I find that Patrick Steele answered this question best on his blog: Avoiding IsNothing()

I did not copy any of his answer here, to ensure Patrick Steele get's credit for his post. But I do think if you're trying to decide whether to use Is Nothing or IsNothing you should read his post. I think you'll agree that Is Nothing is the best choice.

Edit - VoteCoffe's comment here

Partial article contents: After reviewing more code I found out another reason you should avoid this: It accepts value types! Obviously, since IsNothing() is a function that accepts an 'object', you can pass anything you want to it. If it's a value type, .NET will box it up into an object and pass it to IsNothing -- which will always return false on a boxed value! The VB.NET compiler will check the "Is Nothing" style syntax and won't compile if you attempt to do an "Is Nothing" on a value type. But the IsNothing() function compiles without complaints. -PSteele – VoteCoffee

How to get css background color on <tr> tag to span entire row

Removing the borders should make the background color paint without any gaps between the cells. If you look carefully at this jsFiddle, you should see that the light blue color stretches across the row with no white gaps.

If all else fails, try this:

How to use font-family lato?

Please put this code in head section

<link href='http://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Lato:400,700' rel='stylesheet' type='text/css'>

and use font-family: 'Lato', sans-serif; in your css. For example:

h1 {
    font-family: 'Lato', sans-serif;
    font-weight: 400;
}

Or you can use manually also

Generate .ttf font from fontSquiral

and can try this option

    @font-face {
        font-family: "Lato";
        src: url('698242188-Lato-Bla.eot');
        src: url('698242188-Lato-Bla.eot?#iefix') format('embedded-opentype'),
        url('698242188-Lato-Bla.svg#Lato Black') format('svg'),
        url('698242188-Lato-Bla.woff') format('woff'),
        url('698242188-Lato-Bla.ttf') format('truetype');
        font-weight: normal;
        font-style: normal;
}

Called like this

body {
  font-family: 'Lato', sans-serif;
}

API pagination best practices

Option A: Keyset Pagination with a Timestamp

In order to avoid the drawbacks of offset pagination you have mentioned, you can use keyset based pagination. Usually, the entities have a timestamp that states their creation or modification time. This timestamp can be used for pagination: Just pass the timestamp of the last element as the query parameter for the next request. The server, in turn, uses the timestamp as a filter criterion (e.g. WHERE modificationDate >= receivedTimestampParameter)

{
    "elements": [
        {"data": "data", "modificationDate": 1512757070}
        {"data": "data", "modificationDate": 1512757071}
        {"data": "data", "modificationDate": 1512757072}
    ],
    "pagination": {
        "lastModificationDate": 1512757072,
        "nextPage": "https://domain.de/api/elements?modifiedSince=1512757072"
    }
}

This way, you won't miss any element. This approach should be good enough for many use cases. However, keep the following in mind:

You may run into endless loops when all elements of a single page have the same timestamp.
You may deliver many elements multiple times to the client when elements with the same timestamp are overlapping two pages.

You can make those drawbacks less likely by increasing the page size and using timestamps with millisecond precision.

Option B: Extended Keyset Pagination with a Continuation Token

To handle the mentioned drawbacks of the normal keyset pagination, you can add an offset to the timestamp and use a so-called "Continuation Token" or "Cursor". The offset is the position of the element relative to the first element with the same timestamp. Usually, the token has a format like Timestamp_Offset. It's passed to the client in the response and can be submitted back to the server in order to retrieve the next page.

{
    "elements": [
        {"data": "data", "modificationDate": 1512757070}
        {"data": "data", "modificationDate": 1512757072}
        {"data": "data", "modificationDate": 1512757072}
    ],
    "pagination": {
        "continuationToken": "1512757072_2",
        "nextPage": "https://domain.de/api/elements?continuationToken=1512757072_2"
    }
}

The token "1512757072_2" points to the last element of the page and states "the client already got the second element with the timestamp 1512757072". This way, the server knows where to continue.

Please mind that you have to handle cases where the elements got changed between two requests. This is usually done by adding a checksum to the token. This checksum is calculated over the IDs of all elements with this timestamp. So we end up with a token format like this: Timestamp_Offset_Checksum.

For more information about this approach check out the blog post "Web API Pagination with Continuation Tokens". A drawback of this approach is the tricky implementation as there are many corner cases that have to be taken into account. That's why libraries like continuation-token can be handy (if you are using Java/a JVM language). Disclaimer: I'm the author of the post and a co-author of the library.

Correct way to create rounded corners in Twitter Bootstrap

What you want is a Bootstrap panel. Just add the panel class, and your header will look uniform. You can also add classes panel panel-info, panel panel-success, etc. It works for pretty much any block element, and should work with <header>, but I expect it would be used mostly with <div>s.

val() doesn't trigger change() in jQuery

As of feb 2019 .addEventListener() is not currently work with jQuery .trigger() or .change(), you can test it below using Chrome or Firefox.

Batch file to delete folders older than 10 days in Windows 7

FORFILES /S /D -10 /C "cmd /c IF @isdir == TRUE rd /S /Q @path"

I could not get Blorgbeard's suggestion to work, but I was able to get it to work with RMDIR instead of RD:

FORFILES /p N:\test /S /D -10 /C "cmd /c IF @isdir == TRUE RMDIR /S /Q @path"

Since RMDIR won't delete folders that aren't empty so I also ended up using this code to delete the files that were over 10 days and then the folders that were over 10 days old.

FOR /d %%K in ("n:\test*") DO (

FOR /d %%J in ("%%K*") DO (

FORFILES /P %%J /S /M . /D -10 /C "cmd /c del @file"

)

)

FORFILES /p N:\test /S /D -10 /C "cmd /c IF @isdir == TRUE RMDIR /S /Q @path"

I used this code to purge out the sub folders in the folders within test (example n:\test\abc\123 would get purged when empty, but n:\test\abc would not get purged

How to succinctly write a formula with many variables from a data frame?

Yes of course, just add the response y as first column in the dataframe and call lm() on it:

d2<-data.frame(y,d)
> d2
  y x1 x2 x3
1 1  4  3  4
2 4 -1  9 -4
3 6  3  8 -2
> lm(d2)

Call:
lm(formula = d2)

Coefficients:
(Intercept)           x1           x2           x3  
    -5.6316       0.7895       1.1579           NA

Also, my information about R points out that assignment with <- is recommended over =.

How can I tell jaxb / Maven to generate multiple schema packages?

I had to specify different generateDirectory (without this, the plugin was considering that files were up to date and wasn't generating anything during the second execution). And I recommend to follow the target/generated-sources/<tool> convention for generated sources so that they will be imported in your favorite IDE automatically. I also recommend to declare several execution instead of declaring the plugin twice (and to move the configuration inside each execution element):

<plugin>
  <groupId>org.jvnet.jaxb2.maven2</groupId>
  <artifactId>maven-jaxb2-plugin</artifactId>
  <version>0.7.1</version>
  <executions>
    <execution>

Which seems to be the expected result.

How do I find out my MySQL URL, host, port and username?

For example, you can try:

//If you want to get user, you need start query in your mysql:
SELECT user(); // output your user: root@localhost
SELECT system_user(); // --

//If you want to get port your "mysql://user:pass@hostname:port/db"
SELECT @@port; //3306 is default

//If you want hostname your db, you can execute query
SELECT @@hostname;

Detecting request type in PHP (GET, POST, PUT or DELETE)

In core php you can do like this :

<?php

switch ($method) {
  case 'GET':
    //Here Handle GET Request
    echo 'You are using '.$method.' Method';
    break;
  case 'POST':
    //Here Handle POST Request
    echo 'You are using '.$method.' Method';
    break;
  case 'PUT':
    //Here Handle PUT Request
    echo 'You are using '.$method.' Method';
    break;
  case 'PATCH':
    //Here Handle PATCH Request
    echo 'You are using '.$method.' Method';
    break;
  case 'DELETE':
    //Here Handle DELETE Request
    echo 'You are using '.$method.' Method';
    break;
  case 'COPY':
      //Here Handle COPY Request
      echo 'You are using '.$method.' Method';
      break;

  case 'OPTIONS':
      //Here Handle OPTIONS Request
      echo 'You are using '.$method.' Method';
      break;
  case 'LINK':

How to implement custom JsonConverter in JSON.NET to deserialize a List of base class objects?

A lot of the times the implementation will exist in the same namespace as the interface. So, I came up with this:

    public class InterfaceConverter : JsonConverter
    {
    public override bool CanWrite => false;
    public override void WriteJson(JsonWriter writer, object value, JsonSerializer serializer)
    {
    }

    public override object ReadJson(JsonReader reader, Type objectType, object existingValue, JsonSerializer serializer)
    {
        var token = JToken.ReadFrom(reader);
        var typeVariable = this.GetTypeVariable(token);
        if (TypeExtensions.TryParse(typeVariable, out var implimentation))
        { }
        else if (!typeof(IEnumerable).IsAssignableFrom(objectType))
        {
            implimentation = this.GetImplimentedType(objectType);
        }
        else
        {
            var genericArgumentTypes = objectType.GetGenericArguments();
            var innerType = genericArgumentTypes.FirstOrDefault();
            if (innerType == null)
            {
                implimentation = typeof(IEnumerable);
            }
            else
            {
                Type genericType = null;
                if (token.HasAny())
                {
                    var firstItem = token[0];
                    var genericTypeVariable = this.GetTypeVariable(firstItem);
                    TypeExtensions.TryParse(genericTypeVariable, out genericType);
                }

                genericType = genericType ?? this.GetImplimentedType(innerType);
                implimentation = typeof(IEnumerable<>);
                implimentation = implimentation.MakeGenericType(genericType);
            }
        }

        return JsonConvert.DeserializeObject(token.ToString(), implimentation);
    }

    public override bool CanConvert(Type objectType)
    {
        return !typeof(IEnumerable).IsAssignableFrom(objectType) && objectType.IsInterface || typeof(IEnumerable).IsAssignableFrom(objectType) && objectType.GetGenericArguments().Any(t => t.IsInterface);
    }

    protected Type GetImplimentedType(Type interfaceType)
    {
        if (!interfaceType.IsInterface)
        {
            return interfaceType;
        }

        var implimentationQualifiedName = interfaceType.AssemblyQualifiedName?.Replace(interfaceType.Name, interfaceType.Name.Substring(1));
        return implimentationQualifiedName == null ? interfaceType : Type.GetType(implimentationQualifiedName) ?? interfaceType;
    }

    protected string GetTypeVariable(JToken token)
    {
        if (!token.HasAny())
        {
            return null;
        }

        return token.Type != JTokenType.Object ? null : token.Value<string>("$type");
    }
}

Therefore, you can include this globally like so:

public static JsonSerializerSettings StandardSerializerSettings => new JsonSerializerSettings
    {
        Converters = new List<JsonConverter>
        {
            new InterfaceConverter()
        }
    };

Uploading a file in Rails

There is a nice gem especially for uploading files : carrierwave. If the wiki does not help , there is a nice RailsCast about the best way to use it . Summarizing , there is a field type file in Rails forms , which invokes the file upload dialog. You can use it , but the 'magic' is done by carrierwave gem .

I don't know what do you mean with "how to write to a file" , but I hope this is a nice start.

"psql: could not connect to server: Connection refused" Error when connecting to remote database

I had the exact same problem, with my configuration files correct. In my case the issue comes from the Eduroam wifi I used : when I connect via another wifi everything works. It seems that Eduroam blocks port 5432, at least in my university.

Is ASCII code 7-bit or 8-bit?

ASCII encoding is 7-bit, but in practice, characters encoded in ASCII are not stored in groups of 7 bits. Instead, one ASCII is stored in a byte, with the MSB usually set to 0 (yes, it's wasted in ASCII).

You can verify this by inputting a string in the ASCII character set in a text editor, setting the encoding to ASCII, and viewing the binary/hex:

Aside: the use of (strictly) ASCII encoding is now uncommon, in favor of UTF-8 (which does not waste the MSB mentioned above - in fact, an MSB of 1 indicates the code point is encoded with more than 1 byte).

UITableViewCell, show delete button on swipe

Swift 4,5

To delete a cell on swipe there are two built in methods of UITableView.Write this method in TableView dataSource extension.

func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, trailingSwipeActionsConfigurationForRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> UISwipeActionsConfiguration? {
  let delete = deleteProperty(at: indexPath)
  return UISwipeActionsConfiguration(actions: [delete])
}

// Declare this method in UIViewController Main and modify according to your need

func deleteProperty(at indexpath: IndexPath) -> UIContextualAction {
  let action = UIContextualAction(style: .destructive, title: "Delete") { (action, view, completon) in
    self.yourArray.remove(at: indexpath) // Removing from array at selected index

    completon(true)
    action.backgroundColor = .red //cell background color
  }
  return action
}

How can I catch an error caused by mail()?

You could use the PEAR Mail classes and methods, which allows you to check for errors via:

if (PEAR::isError($mail)) {
    echo("<p>" . $mail->getMessage() . "</p>");
} else {
    echo("<p>Message successfully sent!</p>");
}

You can find an example here.

Convert bytes to int?

Assuming you're on at least 3.2, there's a built in for this:

int.from_bytes( bytes, byteorder, *, signed=False )

...

The argument bytes must either be a bytes-like object or an iterable producing bytes.

The byteorder argument determines the byte order used to represent the integer. If byteorder is "big", the most significant byte is at the beginning of the byte array. If byteorder is "little", the most significant byte is at the end of the byte array. To request the native byte order of the host system, use sys.byteorder as the byte order value.

The signed argument indicates whether two’s complement is used to represent the integer.

## Examples:
int.from_bytes(b'\x00\x01', "big")                         # 1
int.from_bytes(b'\x00\x01', "little")                      # 256

int.from_bytes(b'\x00\x10', byteorder='little')            # 4096
int.from_bytes(b'\xfc\x00', byteorder='big', signed=True)  #-1024

Apache VirtualHost and localhost

This worked for me!

To run projects like http://localhost/projectName

<VirtualHost localhost:80>
   ServerAdmin localhost
    DocumentRoot path/to/htdocs/
    ServerName localhost
</VirtualHost>

To run projects like http://somewebsite.com locally

<VirtualHost somewebsite.com:80>
     ServerAdmin [email protected]
     DocumentRoot /path/to/htdocs/somewebsiteFolder
     ServerName www.somewebsite.com
     ServerAlias somewebsite.com
</VirtualHost>

Same for other websites

<VirtualHost anothersite.local:80>
     ServerAdmin [email protected]
     DocumentRoot /path/to/htdocs/anotherSiteFolder
     ServerName www.anothersite.local
     ServerAlias anothersite.com
</VirtualHost>

Creating new table with SELECT INTO in SQL

The syntax for creating a new table is

CREATE TABLE new_table
AS
SELECT *
  FROM old_table

This will create a new table named new_table with whatever columns are in old_table and copy the data over. It will not replicate the constraints on the table, it won't replicate the storage attributes, and it won't replicate any triggers defined on the table.

SELECT INTO is used in PL/SQL when you want to fetch data from a table into a local variable in your PL/SQL block.

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

How to use relative/absolute paths in css URLs?

Personally, I would fix this in the .htaccess file. You should have access to that.

Define your CSS URL as such:

url(/image_dir/image.png);

In your .htacess file, put:

Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^image_dir/(.*) subdir/images/$1

RewriteRule ^image_dir/(.*) images/$1

depending on the site.

When to use If-else if-else over switch statements and vice versa

Switch statements are far easier to read and maintain, hands down. And are usually faster and less error prone.

What does the "no version information available" error from linux dynamic linker mean?

Fwiw, I had this problem when running check_nrpe on a system that had the zenoss monitoring system installed. To add to the confusion, it worked fine as root user but not as zenoss user.

I found out that the zenoss user had an LD_LIBRARY_PATH that caused it to use zenoss libraries, which issue these warnings. Ie:

root@monitoring:$ echo $LD_LIBRARY_PATH

su - zenoss
zenoss@monitoring:/root$ echo $LD_LIBRARY_PATH
/usr/local/zenoss/python/lib:/usr/local/zenoss/mysql/lib:/usr/local/zenoss/zenoss/lib:/usr/local/zenoss/common/lib::
zenoss@monitoring:/root$ /usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_nrpe -H 192.168.61.61 -p 6969 -c check_mq
/usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_nrpe: /usr/local/zenoss/common/lib/libcrypto.so.0.9.8: no version information available (required by /usr/lib/libssl.so.0.9.8)
(...)
zenoss@monitoring:/root$ LD_LIBRARY_PATH= /usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_nrpe -H 192.168.61.61 -p 6969 -c check_mq
(...)

So anyway, what I'm trying to say: check your variables like LD_LIBRARY_PATH, LD_PRELOAD etc as well.

How do I go about adding an image into a java project with eclipse?

If you still have problems with Eclipse finding your files, you might try the following:

Verify that the file exists according to the current execution environment by using the java.io.File class to get a canonical path format and verify that (a) the file exists and (b) what the canonical path is.

Verify the default working directory by printing the following in your main:

    System.out.println("Working dir:  " + System.getProperty("user.dir"));

For (1) above, I put the following debugging code around the specific file I was trying to access:

            File imageFile = new File(source);
            System.out.println("Canonical path of target image: " + imageFile.getCanonicalPath());
            if (!imageFile.exists()) {
                System.out.println("file " + imageFile + " does not exist");
            }
            image = ImageIO.read(imageFile);

For whatever reason, I ended up ignoring most of the other posts telling me to put the image files in "src" or some other variant, as I verified that the system was looking at the root of the Eclipse project directory hierarchy (e.g., $HOME/workspace/myProject).

Having the images in src/ (which is automatically copied to bin/) didn't do the trick on Eclipse Luna.

xhook's php-spreadsheetreader Claims to do most formats

A new C++ Excel extension for PHP, though you'll need to build it yourself, and the docs are pretty sparse when it comes to trying to find out what functionality (I can't even find out from the site what formats it supports, or whether it reads or writes or both.... I'm guessing both) it offers is phpexcellib from SIMITGROUP.

All claim to be faster than PHPExcel from codeplex or from github, but (with the exception of COM, PUNO Ilia's wrapper around libXl and spout) they don't offer both reading and writing, or both xls and xlsx; may no longer be supported; and (while I haven't tested Ilia's extension) only COM and PUNO offers the same degree of control over the created workbook.

number of values in a list greater than a certain number

A (somewhat) different way:

What does ellipsize mean in android?

You can find documentation here.

Based on your requirement you can try according option.

to ellipsize, a neologism, means to shorten text using an ellipsis, i.e. three dots ... or more commonly ligature …, to stand in for the omitted bits.

Say original value pf text view is aaabbbccc and its fitting inside the view

start's output will be : ...bccc

end's output will be : aaab...

middle's output will be : aa...cc

marquee's output will be : aaabbbccc auto sliding from right to left

Python: list of lists

I came here because I'm new with python and lazy so I was searching an example to create a list of 2 lists, after a while a realized the topic here could be wrong... this is a code to create a list of lists:

listoflists = []
for i in range(0,2):
    sublist = []
    for j in range(0,10)
        sublist.append((i,j))
    listoflists.append(sublist)
print listoflists

this the output [ [(0, 0), (0, 1), (0, 2), (0, 3), (0, 4), (0, 5), (0, 6), (0, 7), (0, 8), (0, 9)], [(1, 0), (1, 1), (1, 2), (1, 3), (1, 4), (1, 5), (1, 6), (1, 7), (1, 8), (1, 9)] ]

The problem with your code seems to be you are creating a tuple with your list and you get the reference to the list instead of a copy. That I guess should fall under a tuple topic...

Color text in terminal applications in UNIX

Different solution that I find more elegant

Here's another way to do it. Some people will prefer this as the code is a bit cleaner. There are no %s and a RESET color to end the coloration.

#include <stdio.h>

#define RED   "\x1B[31m"
#define GRN   "\x1B[32m"
#define YEL   "\x1B[33m"
#define BLU   "\x1B[34m"
#define MAG   "\x1B[35m"
#define CYN   "\x1B[36m"
#define WHT   "\x1B[37m"
#define RESET "\x1B[0m"

int main() {
  printf(RED "red\n"     RESET);
  printf(GRN "green\n"   RESET);
  printf(YEL "yellow\n"  RESET);
  printf(BLU "blue\n"    RESET);
  printf(MAG "magenta\n" RESET);
  printf(CYN "cyan\n"    RESET);
  printf(WHT "white\n"   RESET);

  return 0;
}

This program gives the following output:

Simple example with multiple colors

This way, it's easy to do something like:

printf("This is " RED "red" RESET " and this is " BLU "blue" RESET "\n");

This line produces the following output:

linux: kill background task

You need its pid... use "ps -A" to find it.

Pointer vs. Reference

Pointers:

Can be assigned nullptr (or NULL).
At the call site, you must use & if your type is not a pointer itself, making explicitly you are modifying your object.
Pointers can be rebound.

References:

Cannot be null.
Once bound, cannot change.
Callers don't need to explicitly use &. This is considered sometimes bad because you must go to the implementation of the function to see if your parameter is modified.

    Console.WriteLine("Amount is {0} and type is {1}", money.amount, money.type);
}

MSDN Link

Alternatively, because it is a List<T>.. which implements an indexer method [], you can use a normal for loop as well.. although its less readble (IMO):

for (var i = 0; i < myMoney.Count; i++) {
    Console.WriteLine("Amount is {0} and type is {1}", myMoney[i].amount, myMoney[i].type);
}

Remove char at specific index - python

rem = lambda x, unwanted : ''.join([ c for i, c in enumerate(x) if i != unwanted])
rem('1230004', 4)
'123004'

When to use .First and when to use .FirstOrDefault with LINQ?

I would use First() when I know or expect the sequence to have at least one element. In other words, when it is an exceptional occurrence that the sequence is empty.

Use FirstOrDefault() when you know that you will need to check whether there was an element or not. In other words, when it is legal for the sequence to be empty. You should not rely on exception handling for the check. (It is bad practice and might hurt performance).

Finally, the difference between First() and Take(1) is that First() returns the element itself, while Take(1) returns a sequence of elements that contains exactly one element.

How to extract request http headers from a request using NodeJS connect

If you use Express 4.x, you can use the req.get(headerName) method as described in Express 4.x API Reference

How can I load webpage content into a div on page load?

With jQuery, it is possible, however not using ajax.

function LoadPage(){
  $.get('http://a_site.com/a_page.html', function(data) {
    $('#siteloader').html(data);
  });
}

And then place onload="LoadPage()" in the body tag.

Although if you follow this route, a php version might be better:

echo htmlspecialchars(file_get_contents("some URL"));

array.select() in javascript

Array.filter is not implemented in many browsers,It is better to define this function if it does not exist.

The source code for Array.prototype is posted in MDN

if (!Array.prototype.filter)
{
  Array.prototype.filter = function(fun /*, thisp */)
  {
    "use strict";

    if (this == null)
      throw new TypeError();

    var t = Object(this);
    var len = t.length >>> 0;
    if (typeof fun != "function")
      throw new TypeError();

    var res = [];
    var thisp = arguments[1];
    for (var i = 0; i < len; i++)
    {
      if (i in t)
      {
        var val = t[i]; // in case fun mutates this
        if (fun.call(thisp, val, i, t))
          res.push(val);
      }
    }

    return res;
  };
}

Highlighting Text Color using Html.fromHtml() in Android?

First Convert your string into HTML then convert it into spannable. do as suggest the following codes.

 Spannable spannable = new SpannableString(Html.fromHtml(labelText));
                    
spannable.setSpan(new ForegroundColorSpan(Color.parseColor(color)), spannable.toString().indexOf("•"), spannable.toString().lastIndexOf("•") + 1, Spannable.SPAN_EXCLUSIVE_EXCLUSIVE);

Trigger 404 in Spring-MVC controller?

Configure web.xml with setting

<error-page>
    <error-code>500</error-code>
    <location>/error/500</location>
</error-page>

<error-page>
    <error-code>404</error-code>
    <location>/error/404</location>
</error-page>

Create new controller

            ModelAndView model = new ModelAndView(TILE_ERROR);
            model.addObject("message", "The page you requested could not be found. This location may not be current, due to the recent site redesign.");

            return model;

Add bottom line to view in SwiftUI / Swift / Objective-C / Xamarin

Swift 5 You can use a UIView extension so that you can add bottom border to any view:

extension UIView {

    func addBottomLine(width: CGFloat, color: UIColor) {
        let lineView: UIView = {
            let view = UIView()
            view.translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints = false
            view.backgroundColor = color
            return view
        }()
        addSubview(lineView)
        NSLayoutConstraint.activate([
            lineView.heightAnchor.constraint(equalToConstant: width),
            lineView.leadingAnchor.constraint(equalTo: leadingAnchor),
            lineView.trailingAnchor.constraint(equalTo: trailingAnchor),
            lineView.bottomAnchor.constraint(equalTo: bottomAnchor)
        ])
    }

}

Using psql to connect to PostgreSQL in SSL mode

Well, you cloud provide all the information with following command in CLI, if connection requires in SSL mode:

psql "sslmode=verify-ca sslrootcert=server-ca.pem sslcert=client-cert.pem sslkey=client-key.pem hostaddr=your_host port=5432 user=your_user dbname=your_db"

MySQL SELECT statement for the "length" of the field is greater than 1

How about:

SELECT * FROM sometable WHERE CHAR_LENGTH(LINK) > 1

Here's the MySql string functions page (5.0).

Note that I chose CHAR_LENGTH instead of LENGTH, as if there are multibyte characters in the data you're probably really interested in how many characters there are, not how many bytes of storage they take. So for the above, a row where LINK is a single two-byte character wouldn't be returned - whereas it would when using LENGTH.

Note that if LINK is NULL, the result of CHAR_LENGTH(LINK) will be NULL as well, so the row won't match.

How to generate random colors in matplotlib?

Since the question is How to generate random colors in matplotlib? and as I was searching for an answer concerning pie plots, I think it is worth to put an answer here (for pies)

import numpy as np
from random import sample
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import matplotlib.colors as pltc
all_colors = [k for k,v in pltc.cnames.items()]

fracs = np.array([600, 179, 154, 139, 126, 1185])
labels = ["label1", "label2", "label3", "label4", "label5", "label6"]
explode = ((fracs == max(fracs)).astype(int) / 20).tolist()

for val in range(2):
    colors = sample(all_colors, len(fracs))
    plt.figure(figsize=(8,8))
    plt.pie(fracs, labels=labels, autopct='%1.1f%%', 
            shadow=True, explode=explode, colors=colors)
    plt.legend(labels, loc=(1.05, 0.7), shadow=True)
    plt.show()

Output

Best way to define error codes/strings in Java?

Using interface as message constant is generally a bad idea. It will leak into client program permanently as part of exported API. Who knows, that later client programmers might parse that error messages(public) as part of their program.

You will be locked forever to support this, as changes in string format will/may break client program.

jquery - disable click

If you're using jQuery versions 1.4.3+:

$('selector').click(false);

If not:

$('selector').click(function(){return false;});

What is the difference between tinyint, smallint, mediumint, bigint and int in MySQL?

Those seem to be MySQL data types.

According to the documentation they take:

tinyint = 1 byte
smallint = 2 bytes
mediumint = 3 bytes
int = 4 bytes
bigint = 8 bytes

And, naturally, accept increasingly larger ranges of numbers.

Array of strings in groovy

If you really want to create an array rather than a list use either

String[] names = ["lucas", "Fred", "Mary"]

def names = ["lucas", "Fred", "Mary"].toArray()

Java equivalent of unsigned long long?

No, there isn't. The designers of Java are on record as saying they didn't like unsigned ints. Use a BigInteger instead. See this question for details.

AngularJS - value attribute for select

You could modify you model to look like this:

$scope.options = {
    "AL" : "Alabama",
    "AK" : "Alaska",
    "AS" : "American Samoa"
  };

Then use

<select ng-options="k as v for (k,v) in options"></select>

Showing the stack trace from a running Python application

In case you need to do this with uWSGI, it has Python Tracebacker built-in and it's just matter of enabling it in the configuration (number is attached to the name for each worker):

py-tracebacker=/var/run/uwsgi/pytrace

Once you have done this, you can print backtrace simply by connecting to the socket:

uwsgi --connect-and-read /var/run/uwsgi/pytrace1

Angular 2 http post params and body

And it works, thanks @trichetriche. The problem was in my RequestOptions, apparently, you can not pass params or body to the RequestOptions while using the post. Removing one of them gives me an error, removing both and it works. Still no final solution to my problem, but I now have something to work with. Final working code.

public post(cmd: string, data: string): Observable<any> {

    const options = new RequestOptions({
      headers: this.getAuthorizedHeaders(),
      responseType: ResponseContentType.Json,
      withCredentials: false
    });

    console.log('Options: ' + JSON.stringify(options));

    return this.http.post(this.BASE_URL, JSON.stringify({
      cmd: cmd,
      data: data}), options)
      .map(this.handleData)
      .catch(this.handleError);
  }

How to implement the --verbose or -v option into a script?

Use the logging module:

import logging as log
…
args = p.parse_args()
if args.verbose:
    log.basicConfig(format="%(levelname)s: %(message)s", level=log.DEBUG)
    log.info("Verbose output.")
else:
    log.basicConfig(format="%(levelname)s: %(message)s")

log.info("This should be verbose.")
log.warning("This is a warning.")
log.error("This is an error.")

All of these automatically go to stderr:

% python myprogram.py
WARNING: This is a warning.
ERROR: This is an error.

% python myprogram.py -v
INFO: Verbose output.
INFO: This should be verbose.
WARNING: This is a warning.
ERROR: This is an error.

For more info, see the Python Docs and the tutorials.

Convert pandas timezone-aware DateTimeIndex to naive timestamp, but in certain timezone

The accepted solution does not work when there are multiple different timezones in a Series. It throws ValueError: Tz-aware datetime.datetime cannot be converted to datetime64 unless utc=True

The solution is to use the apply method.

Please see the examples below:

# Let's have a series `a` with different multiple timezones. 
> a
0    2019-10-04 16:30:00+02:00
1    2019-10-07 16:00:00-04:00
2    2019-09-24 08:30:00-07:00
Name: localized, dtype: object

> a.iloc[0]
Timestamp('2019-10-04 16:30:00+0200', tz='Europe/Amsterdam')

# trying the accepted solution
> a.dt.tz_localize(None)
ValueError: Tz-aware datetime.datetime cannot be converted to datetime64 unless utc=True

# Make it tz-naive. This is the solution:
> a.apply(lambda x:x.tz_localize(None))
0   2019-10-04 16:30:00
1   2019-10-07 16:00:00
2   2019-09-24 08:30:00
Name: localized, dtype: datetime64[ns]

# a.tz_convert() also does not work with multiple timezones, but this works:
> a.apply(lambda x:x.tz_convert('America/Los_Angeles'))
0   2019-10-04 07:30:00-07:00
1   2019-10-07 13:00:00-07:00
2   2019-09-24 08:30:00-07:00
Name: localized, dtype: datetime64[ns, America/Los_Angeles]

Performance of Arrays vs. Lists

if you are just getting a single value out of either (not in a loop) then both do bounds checking (you're in managed code remember) it's just the list does it twice. See the notes later for why this is likely not a big deal.

If you are using your own for(int int i = 0; i < x.[Length/Count];i++) then the key difference is as follows:

Array:
- bounds checking is removed
Lists
- bounds checking is performed

If you are using foreach then the key difference is as follows:

Array:
- no object is allocated to manage the iteration
- bounds checking is removed
List via a variable known to be List.
- the iteration management variable is stack allocated
- bounds checking is performed
List via a variable known to be IList.
- the iteration management variable is heap allocated
- bounds checking is performed also Lists values may not be altered during the foreach whereas the array's can be.

The bounds checking is often no big deal (especially if you are on a cpu with a deep pipeline and branch prediction - the norm for most these days) but only your own profiling can tell you if that is an issue. If you are in parts of your code where you are avoiding heap allocations (good examples are libraries or in hashcode implementations) then ensuring the variable is typed as List not IList will avoid that pitfall. As always profile if it matters.

Efficiently checking if arbitrary object is NaN in Python / numpy / pandas?

I found this brilliant solution here, it uses the simple logic NAN!=NAN. https://www.codespeedy.com/check-if-a-given-string-is-nan-in-python/

Using above example you can simply do the following. This should work on different type of objects as it simply utilize the fact that NAN is not equal to NAN.

 import numpy as np
 s = pd.Series(['apple', np.nan, 'banana'])
 s.apply(lambda x: x!=x)
 out[252]
 0    False
 1     True
 2    False
 dtype: bool

Programmatically navigate using React router

react-router-dom: 5.1.2

This site has 3 pages, all of which are rendered dynamically in the browser.
Although the page does not ever refresh, notice how React Router keeps the URL up to date as you navigate through the site. This preserves the browser history, making sure things like the back button and bookmarks work properly
A Switch looks through all its children elements and renders the first one whose path matches the current URL. Use a any time you have multiple routes, but you want only one of them to render at a time

import React from "react";
import {
  BrowserRouter as Router,
  Switch,
  Route,
  Link
} from "react-router-dom";



export default function BasicExample() {
  return (
    <Router>
      <div>
        <ul>
          <li>
            <Link to="/">Home</Link>
          </li>
          <li>
            <Link to="/about">About</Link>
          </li>
          <li>
            <Link to="/dashboard">Dashboard</Link>
          </li>
        </ul>

        <hr />

        <Switch>
          <Route exact path="/">
            <Home />
          </Route>
          <Route path="/about">
            <About />
          </Route>
          <Route path="/dashboard">
            <Dashboard />
          </Route>
        </Switch>
      </div>
    </Router>
  );
}

// You can think of these components as "pages"
// in your app.

function Home() {
  return (
    <div>
      <h2>Home</h2>
    </div>
  );
}

function About() {
  return (
    <div>
      <h2>About</h2>
    </div>
  );
}

function Dashboard() {
  return (
    <div>
      <h2>Dashboard</h2>
    </div>
  );
}```

View RDD contents in Python Spark?

Try this:

data = f.flatMap(lambda x: x.split(' '))
map = data.map(lambda x: (x, 1))
mapreduce = map.reduceByKey(lambda x,y: x+y)
result = mapreduce.collect()

Please note that when you run collect(), the RDD - which is a distributed data set is aggregated at the driver node and is essentially converted to a list. So obviously, it won't be a good idea to collect() a 2T data set. If all you need is a couple of samples from your RDD, use take(10).

GIT_DISCOVERY_ACROSS_FILESYSTEM not set

For android source code with repo, I beleive you should use REPO. if you really want to use git, you should know if the project has .git directory with ls -a. Or you have to enter the sub project directory which should include the .git.

Creating a "Hello World" WebSocket example

Issue

Since you are using WebSocket, spender is correct. After recieving the initial data from the WebSocket, you need to send the handshake message from the C# server before any further information can flow.

HTTP/1.1 101 Web Socket Protocol Handshake
Upgrade: websocket
Connection: Upgrade
WebSocket-Origin: example
WebSocket-Location: something.here
WebSocket-Protocol: 13

Something along those lines.

You can do some more research into how WebSocket works on w3 or google.

Links and Resources

Here is a protocol specifcation: http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-hixie-thewebsocketprotocol-76#section-1.3

List of working examples:

find path of current folder - cmd

for /f "delims=" %%i in ("%0") do set "curpath=%%~dpi"
echo "%curpath%"

echo "%cd%"

The double quotes are needed if the path contains any & characters.

UnicodeEncodeError: 'ascii' codec can't encode character u'\xa0' in position 20: ordinal not in range(128)

You need to read the Python Unicode HOWTO. This error is the very first example.

Basically, stop using str to convert from unicode to encoded text / bytes.

Instead, properly use .encode() to encode the string:

p.agent_info = u' '.join((agent_contact, agent_telno)).encode('utf-8').strip()

or work entirely in unicode.

malloc for struct and pointer in C

No, you're not allocating memory for y->x twice.

Instead, you're allocating memory for the structure (which includes a pointer) plus something for that pointer to point to.

Think of it this way:

         1          2
        +-----+    +------+
y------>|  x------>|  *x  |
        |  n  |    +------+
        +-----+

So you actually need the two allocations (1 and 2) to store everything.

Additionally, your type should be struct Vector *y since it's a pointer, and you should never cast the return value from malloc in C since it can hide certain problems you don't want hidden - C is perfectly capable of implicitly converting the void* return value to any other pointer.

And, of course, you probably want to encapsulate the creation of these vectors to make management of them easier, such as with:

struct Vector {
    double *data;    // no place for x and n in readable code :-)
    size_t size;
};

struct Vector *newVector (size_t sz) {
    // Try to allocate vector structure.

    struct Vector *retVal = malloc (sizeof (struct Vector));
    if (retVal == NULL)
        return NULL;

    // Try to allocate vector data, free structure if fail.

    retVal->data = malloc (sz * sizeof (double));
    if (retVal->data == NULL) {
        free (retVal);
        return NULL;
    }

    // Set size and return.

    retVal->size = sz;
    return retVal;
}

void delVector (struct Vector *vector) {
    // Can safely assume vector is NULL or fully built.

    if (vector != NULL) {
        free (vector->data);
        free (vector);
    }
}

By encapsulating the creation like that, you ensure that vectors are either fully built or not built at all - there's no chance of them being half-built. It also allows you to totally change the underlying data structures in future without affecting clients (for example, if you wanted to make them sparse arrays to trade off space for speed).

Run class in Jar file

Assuming you are in the directory where myJar.jar file is and that myClass has a public static void main() method on it:

You use the following command line:

java -cp ./myJar.jar myClass

Where:

myJar.jar is in the current path, note that . isn't in the current path on most systems. A fully qualified path is preferred here as well.
myClass is a fully qualified package path to the class, the example assumes that myClass is in the default package which is bad practice, if it is in a nested package it would be com.mycompany.mycode.myClass.

How to cut an entire line in vim and paste it?

The quickest way I found is through editing mode:

Press yy to copy the line.
Then dd to delete the line.
Then p to paste the line.

Search for string within text column in MySQL

You could probably use the LIKE clause to do some simple string matching:

SELECT * FROM items WHERE items.xml LIKE '%123456%'

If you need more advanced functionality, take a look at MySQL's fulltext-search functions here: http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.1/en/fulltext-search.html

jQuery - Uncaught RangeError: Maximum call stack size exceeded

Your calls are made recursively which pushes functions on to the stack infinitely that causes max call stack exceeded error due to recursive behavior. Instead try using setTimeout which is a callback.

Also based on your markup your selector is wrong. it should be #advisersDiv

Demo

function fadeIn() {
    $('#pulseDiv').find('div#advisersDiv').delay(400).addClass("pulse");
    setTimeout(fadeOut,1); //<-- Provide any delay here
};

function fadeOut() {
    $('#pulseDiv').find('div#advisersDiv').delay(400).removeClass("pulse");
    setTimeout(fadeIn,1);//<-- Provide any delay here
};
fadeIn();

npm check and update package if needed

No additional packages, to just check outdated and update those which are, this command will do:

npm install $(npm outdated | cut -d' ' -f 1 | sed '1d' | xargs -I '$' echo '$@latest' | xargs echo)

how to create a Java Date object of midnight today and midnight tomorrow?

java.time

If you are using Java 8 and later, you can try the java.time package (Tutorial):

LocalDate tomorrow = LocalDate.now().plusDays(1);
Date endDate = Date.from(tomorrow.atStartOfDay(ZoneId.systemDefault()).toInstant());

How can I run a PHP script inside a HTML file?

You can't run PHP in an html page ending with .html. Unless the page is actually PHP and the extension was changed with .htaccess from .php to .html

What you mean is:

index.html
<html>
...
<?php echo "Hello world";?> //This is impossible


index.php //The file extension can be changed using htaccess, ex: its type stays php but will be visible to visitors as index.html

<?php echo "Hello world";?>

Compare two objects' properties to find differences?

Yes. Use Reflection. With Reflection, you can do things like:

//given object of some type
object myObjectFromSomewhere;
Type myObjOriginalType = myObjectFromSomewhere.GetType();
PropertyInfo[] myProps = myObjOriginalType.GetProperties();

And then you can use the resulting PropertyInfo classes to compare all manner of things.

how to convert JSONArray to List of Object using camel-jackson

I had similar json response coming from client. Created one main list class, and one POJO class.

Git vs Team Foundation Server

For me the major difference is all the ancilliary files that TFS will add to your solution (.vssscc) to 'support' TFS - we've had recent issues with these files ending up mapped to the wrong branch, which lead to some interesting debugging...

How to extract HTTP response body from a Python requests call?

Your code is correct. I tested:

r = requests.get("http://www.google.com")
print(r.content)

And it returned plenty of content. Check the url, try "http://www.google.com". Cheers!

Exit single-user mode

SSMS in general uses several connections to the database behind the scenes.

You will need to kill these connections before changing the access mode.

First, make sure the object explorer is pointed to a system database like master.

Second, execute a sp_who2 and find all the connections to database 'my_db'. Kill all the connections by doing KILL { session id } where session id is the SPID listed by sp_who2.

Third, open a new query window.

Execute the following code.

-- Start in master
USE MASTER;

-- Add users
ALTER DATABASE [my_db] SET MULTI_USER
GO

See my blog article on managing database files. This was written for moving files, but user management is the same.

Why call git branch --unset-upstream to fixup?

delete your local branch by following command

git branch -d branch_name

you could also do

git branch -D branch_name

which basically force a delete (even if local not merged to source)

Advantage of switch over if-else statement

They work equally well. Performance is about the same given a modern compiler.

I prefer if statements over case statements because they are more readable, and more flexible -- you can add other conditions not based on numeric equality, like " || max < min ". But for the simple case you posted here, it doesn't really matter, just do what's most readable to you.

How to implement class constructor in Visual Basic?

Suppose your class is called MyStudent. Here's how you define your class constructor:

Public Class MyStudent
    Public StudentId As Integer

    'Here's the class constructor:
    Public Sub New(newStudentId As Integer)
        StudentId = newStudentId
    End Sub
End Class

Here's how you call it:

Dim student As New MyStudent(studentId)

Of course, your class constructor can contain as many or as few arguments as you need--even none, in which case you leave the parentheses empty. You can also have several constructors for the same class, all with different combinations of arguments. These are known as different "signatures" for your class constructor.

Split comma-separated input box values into array in jquery, and loop through it

var array = $('#searchKeywords').val().split(",");

then

$.each(array,function(i){
   alert(array[i]);
});

for (i=0;i<array.length;i++){
     alert(array[i]);
}

ImportError: Couldn't import Django

I faced the same problem when I was doing it on windows 10. The problem could be that the path is not defined for manage.py in the environment variables. I did the following steps and it worked out for me!

Go to Start menu and search for manage.py.
Right click on it and select "copy full path".
Go to your "My Computer" or "This PC".
Right click and select "Properties".
Select Advanced settings.
Select "Environment Variables."
In the lower window, find "Path", click on it and click edit.
Finally, click on "Add New".
Paste the copied path with CTRL-V.
Click OK and then restart you CMD with Administrator privileges.

I really hope it works!

Warning: mysqli_num_rows() expects parameter 1 to be mysqli_result, boolean given in

The problem is your query returned false meaning there was an error in your query. After your query you could do the following:

if (!$result) {
    die(mysqli_error($link));
}

Or you could combine it with your query:

$results = mysqli_query($link, $query) or die(mysqli_error($link));

That will print out your error.

Also... you need to sanitize your input. You can't just take user input and put that into a query. Try this:

$query = "SELECT * FROM shopsy_db WHERE name LIKE '%" . mysqli_real_escape_string($link, $searchTerm) . "%'";

In reply to: Table 'sookehhh_shopsy_db.sookehhh_shopsy_db' doesn't exist

Are you sure the table name is sookehhh_shopsy_db? maybe it's really like users or something.

How to check if a date is greater than another in Java?

You can use Date.before() or Date.after() or Date.equals() for date comparison.

Taken from here:

import java.text.ParseException;
import java.text.SimpleDateFormat;
import java.util.Date;

public class DateDiff {

    public static void main( String[] args )
    {
        compareDates("2017-01-13 00:00:00", "2017-01-14 00:00:00");// output will be Date1 is before Date2
        compareDates("2017-01-13 00:00:00", "2017-01-12 00:00:00");//output will be Date1 is after Date2
        compareDates("2017-01-13 00:00:00", "2017-01-13 10:20:30");//output will be Date1 is before Date2 because date2 is ahead of date 1 by 10:20:30 hours
        compareDates("2017-01-13 00:00:00", "2017-01-13 00:00:00");//output will be Date1 is equal Date2 because both date and time are equal
    }

    public static void compareDates(String d1,String d2)
    {
        try{
            // If you already have date objects then skip 1

            //1
            // Create 2 dates starts
            SimpleDateFormat sdf = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss");
            Date date1 = sdf.parse(d1);
            Date date2 = sdf.parse(d2);

            System.out.println("Date1"+sdf.format(date1));
            System.out.println("Date2"+sdf.format(date2));System.out.println();

            // Create 2 dates ends
            //1

            // Date object is having 3 methods namely after,before and equals for comparing
            // after() will return true if and only if date1 is after date 2
            if(date1.after(date2)){
                System.out.println("Date1 is after Date2");

            if(date1.before(date2)){
                System.out.println("Date1 is before Date2");
            }

            //equals() returns true if both the dates are equal
            if(date1.equals(date2)){
                System.out.println("Date1 is equal Date2");
            }

            System.out.println();
        }
        catch(ParseException ex){
            ex.printStackTrace();
        }
    }

    public static void compareDates(Date date1,Date date2)
    {
        // if you already have date objects then skip 1
        //1

        //1

        if(date1.after(date2)){
            System.out.println("Date1 is after Date2");
        }

        //before() will return true if and only if date1 is before date2
        if(date1.before(date2)){
            System.out.println("Date1 is before Date2");
        }

        //equals() returns true if both the dates are equal
        if(date1.equals(date2)){
            System.out.println("Date1 is equal Date2");
        }

        System.out.println();
    }
}

Open Source HTML to PDF Renderer with Full CSS Support

I've always used it on the command line and not as a library, but HTMLDOC gives me excellent results, and it handles at least some CSS (I couldn't easily see how much).

Here's a sample command line

htmldoc --webpage -t pdf --size letter --fontsize 10pt index.html > index.pdf

ActivityCompat.requestPermissions not showing dialog box

For me the issue was requesting a group mistakenly instead of the actual permissions.

Set object property using reflection

Based on MarcGravell's suggestion, I have constructed the following static method.The method generically assigns all matching properties from source object to target using FastMember

 public static void DynamicPropertySet(object source, object target)
    {
        //SOURCE
        var src_accessor = TypeAccessor.Create(source.GetType());
        if (src_accessor == null)
        {
            throw new ApplicationException("Could not create accessor!");
        }
        var src_members = src_accessor.GetMembers();
        if (src_members == null)
        {
            throw new ApplicationException("Could not fetch members!");
        }
        var src_class_members = src_members.Where(x => x.Type.IsClass && !x.Type.IsPrimitive);
        var src_class_propNames = src_class_members.Select(x => x.Name);
        var src_propNames = src_members.Except(src_class_members).Select(x => x.Name);

        //TARGET
        var trg_accessor = TypeAccessor.Create(target.GetType());
        if (trg_accessor == null)
        {
            throw new ApplicationException("Could not create accessor!");
        }
        var trg_members = trg_accessor.GetMembers();
        if (trg_members == null)
        {
            throw new ApplicationException("Could not create accessor!");
        }
        var trg_class_members = trg_members.Where(x => x.Type.IsClass && !x.Type.IsPrimitive);
        var trg_class_propNames = trg_class_members.Select(x => x.Name);
        var trg_propNames = trg_members.Except(trg_class_members).Select(x => x.Name);



        var class_propNames = trg_class_propNames.Intersect(src_class_propNames);
        var propNames = trg_propNames.Intersect(src_propNames);

        foreach (var propName in propNames)
        {
            trg_accessor[target, propName] = src_accessor[source, propName];
        }
        foreach (var member in class_propNames)
        {

            var trg = trg_accessor[target, member];
            if (src != null && trg != null)
            {
                DynamicPropertySet(src, trg);
            }
        }

remove item from stored array in angular 2

Don't use delete to remove an item from array and use splice() instead.

this.data.splice(this.data.indexOf(msg), 1);

Note, that TypeScript is a superset of ES6 (arrays are the same in both TypeScript and JavaScript) so feel free to look for JavaScript solutions even when working with TypeScript.

How can I check the current status of the GPS receiver?

Setting time interval to check for fix is not a good choice.. i noticed that onLocationChanged is not called if you are not moving.. what is understandable since location is not changing :)

Better way would be for example:

check interval to last location received (in gpsStatusChanged)
if that interval is more than 15s set variable: long_interval = true
remove the location listener and add it again, usually then you get updated position if location really is available, if not - you probably lost location
in onLocationChanged you just set long_interval to false..

Switch between two frames in tkinter

One way is to stack the frames on top of each other, then you can simply raise one above the other in the stacking order. The one on top will be the one that is visible. This works best if all the frames are the same size, but with a little work you can get it to work with any sized frames.

Note: for this to work, all of the widgets for a page must have that page (ie: self) or a descendant as a parent (or master, depending on the terminology you prefer).

Here's a bit of a contrived example to show you the general concept:

try:
    import tkinter as tk                # python 3
    from tkinter import font as tkfont  # python 3
except ImportError:
    import Tkinter as tk     # python 2
    import tkFont as tkfont  # python 2

class SampleApp(tk.Tk):

    def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs):
        tk.Tk.__init__(self, *args, **kwargs)

        self.title_font = tkfont.Font(family='Helvetica', size=18, weight="bold", slant="italic")

        # the container is where we'll stack a bunch of frames
        # on top of each other, then the one we want visible
        # will be raised above the others
        container = tk.Frame(self)
        container.pack(side="top", fill="both", expand=True)
        container.grid_rowconfigure(0, weight=1)
        container.grid_columnconfigure(0, weight=1)

        self.frames = {}
        for F in (StartPage, PageOne, PageTwo):
            page_name = F.__name__
            frame = F(parent=container, controller=self)
            self.frames[page_name] = frame

            # put all of the pages in the same location;
            # the one on the top of the stacking order
            # will be the one that is visible.
            frame.grid(row=0, column=0, sticky="nsew")

        self.show_frame("StartPage")

    def show_frame(self, page_name):
        '''Show a frame for the given page name'''
        frame = self.frames[page_name]
        frame.tkraise()


class StartPage(tk.Frame):

    def __init__(self, parent, controller):
        tk.Frame.__init__(self, parent)
        self.controller = controller
        label = tk.Label(self, text="This is the start page", font=controller.title_font)
        label.pack(side="top", fill="x", pady=10)

        button1 = tk.Button(self, text="Go to Page One",
                            command=lambda: controller.show_frame("PageOne"))
        button2 = tk.Button(self, text="Go to Page Two",
                            command=lambda: controller.show_frame("PageTwo"))
        button1.pack()
        button2.pack()


class PageOne(tk.Frame):

    def __init__(self, parent, controller):
        tk.Frame.__init__(self, parent)
        self.controller = controller
        label = tk.Label(self, text="This is page 1", font=controller.title_font)
        label.pack(side="top", fill="x", pady=10)
        button = tk.Button(self, text="Go to the start page",
                           command=lambda: controller.show_frame("StartPage"))
        button.pack()


class PageTwo(tk.Frame):

    def __init__(self, parent, controller):
        tk.Frame.__init__(self, parent)
        self.controller = controller
        label = tk.Label(self, text="This is page 2", font=controller.title_font)
        label.pack(side="top", fill="x", pady=10)
        button = tk.Button(self, text="Go to the start page",
                           command=lambda: controller.show_frame("StartPage"))
        button.pack()


if __name__ == "__main__":
    app = SampleApp()
    app.mainloop()

If you find the concept of creating instance in a class confusing, or if different pages need different arguments during construction, you can explicitly call each class separately. The loop serves mainly to illustrate the point that each class is identical.

For example, to create the classes individually you can remove the loop (for F in (StartPage, ...) with this:

self.frames["StartPage"] = StartPage(parent=container, controller=self)
self.frames["PageOne"] = PageOne(parent=container, controller=self)
self.frames["PageTwo"] = PageTwo(parent=container, controller=self)

self.frames["StartPage"].grid(row=0, column=0, sticky="nsew")
self.frames["PageOne"].grid(row=0, column=0, sticky="nsew")
self.frames["PageTwo"].grid(row=0, column=0, sticky="nsew")

Over time people have asked other questions using this code (or an online tutorial that copied this code) as a starting point. You might want to read the answers to these questions:

C - The %x format specifier

The format string attack on printf you mentioned isn't specific to the "%x" formatting - in any case where printf has more formatting parameters than passed variables, it will read values from the stack that do not belong to it. You will get the same issue with %d for example. %x is useful when you want to see those values as hex.

As explained in previous answers, %08x will produce a 8 digits hex number, padded by preceding zeros.

Using the formatting in your code example in printf, with no additional parameters:

printf ("%08x %08x %08x %08x");

Will fetch 4 parameters from the stack and display them as 8-digits padded hex numbers.

Cron job every three days

It would be simpler if you configured it to just run e.g. on monday and thursdays, which would give it a 3 and 4 day break.

Otherwise configure it to run daily, but make your php cron script exit early with:

if (! (date("z") % 3)) {
     exit;
}

Reading and writing environment variables in Python?

First things first :) reading books is an excellent approach to problem solving; it's the difference between band-aid fixes and long-term investments in solving problems. Never miss an opportunity to learn. :D

You might choose to interpret the 1 as a number, but environment variables don't care. They just pass around strings:

   The argument envp is an array of character pointers to null-
   terminated strings. These strings shall constitute the
   environment for the new process image. The envp array is
   terminated by a null pointer.

(From environ(3posix).)

You access environment variables in python using the os.environ dictionary-like object:

>>> import os
>>> os.environ["HOME"]
'/home/sarnold'
>>> os.environ["PATH"]
'/home/sarnold/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games'
>>> os.environ["PATH"] = os.environ["PATH"] + ":/silly/"
>>> os.environ["PATH"]
'/home/sarnold/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games:/silly/'

How to select id with max date group by category in PostgreSQL?

Another approach is to use the first_value window function: http://sqlfiddle.com/#!12/7a145/14

SELECT DISTINCT
  first_value("id") OVER (PARTITION BY "category" ORDER BY "date" DESC) 
FROM Table1
ORDER BY 1;

... though I suspect hims056's suggestion will typically perform better where appropriate indexes are present.

A third solution is:

SELECT
  id
FROM (
  SELECT
    id,
    row_number() OVER (PARTITION BY "category" ORDER BY "date" DESC) AS rownum
  FROM Table1
) x
WHERE rownum = 1;

Convert string to Boolean in javascript

These lines give the following output:

Boolean(1).toString(); // true
Boolean(0).toString(); // false

Insert line break in wrapped cell via code

You could also use vbCrLf which corresponds to Chr(13) & Chr(10).

Permission denied: /var/www/abc/.htaccess pcfg_openfile: unable to check htaccess file, ensure it is readable?

If it gets into the selinux arena you've got a much more complicated issue. It's not a good idea to remove the selinux protection but to embrace it and use the tools that were designed to manage it.

If you are serving content out of /var/www/abc, you can verify the selinux permissions with a Z appended to the normal ls -l command. i.e. ls -laZ will give the selinux context.

To add a directory to be served by selinux you can use the semanage command like this. This will change the label on /var/www/abc to httpd_sys_content_t

semanage fcontext -a -t httpd_sys_content_t /var/www/abc

this will update the label for /var/www/abc

restorecon /var/www/abc

How to trigger Jenkins builds remotely and to pass parameters

You can simply try it with a jenkinsfile. Create a Jenkins job with following pipeline script.

pipeline {
    agent any

    parameters {
        booleanParam(defaultValue: true, description: '', name: 'userFlag')
    }

    stages {
        stage('Trigger') {
            steps {
                script {
                    println("triggering the pipeline from a rest call...")
                }
            }
        }
        stage("foo") {
            steps {
                echo "flag: ${params.userFlag}"
            }
        }

    }
}

Build the job once manually to get it configured & just create a http POST request to the Jenkins job as follows.

The format is http://server/job/myjob/buildWithParameters?PARAMETER=Value

curl http://admin:test123@localhost:30637/job/apd-test/buildWithParameters?userFlag=false --request POST

How to represent matrices in python

Python doesn't have matrices. You can use a list of lists or NumPy

Append an array to another array in JavaScript

If you want to modify the original array instead of returning a new array, use .push()...

array1.push.apply(array1, array2);
array1.push.apply(array1, array3);

I used .apply to push the individual members of arrays 2 and 3 at once.

or...

array1.push.apply(array1, array2.concat(array3));

To deal with large arrays, you can do this in batches.

for (var n = 0, to_add = array2.concat(array3); n < to_add.length; n+=300) {
    array1.push.apply(array1, to_add.slice(n, n+300));
}

If you do this a lot, create a method or function to handle it.

var push_apply = Function.apply.bind([].push);
var slice_call = Function.call.bind([].slice);

Object.defineProperty(Array.prototype, "pushArrayMembers", {
    value: function() {
        for (var i = 0; i < arguments.length; i++) {
            var to_add = arguments[i];
            for (var n = 0; n < to_add.length; n+=300) {
                push_apply(this, slice_call(to_add, n, n+300));
            }
        }
    }
});

and use it like this:

array1.pushArrayMembers(array2, array3);

How to print the array?

There is no .length property in C. The .length property can only be applied to arrays in object oriented programming (OOP) languages. The .length property is inherited from the object class; the class all other classes & objects inherit from in an OOP language. Also, one would use .length-1 to return the number of the last index in an array; using just the .length will return the total length of the array.

I would suggest something like this:

int index;
int jdex;
for( index = 0; index < (sizeof( my_array ) / sizeof( my_array[0] )); index++){
   for( jdex = 0; jdex < (sizeof( my_array ) / sizeof( my_array[0] )); jdex++){
        printf( "%d", my_array[index][jdex] );
        printf( "\n" );
   }
}

The line (sizeof( my_array ) / sizeof( my_array[0] )) will give you the size of the array in question. The sizeof property will return the length in bytes, so one must divide the total size of the array in bytes by how many bytes make up each element, each element takes up 4 bytes because each element is of type int, respectively. The array is of total size 16 bytes and each element is of 4 bytes so 16/4 yields 4 the total number of elements in your array because indexing starts at 0 and not 1.

How do I rename a MySQL schema?

If you're on the Model Overview page you get a tab with the schema. If you rightclick on that tab you get an option to "edit schema". From there you can rename the schema by adding a new name, then click outside the field. This goes for MySQL Workbench 5.2.30 CE

Edit: On the model overview it's under Physical Schemata

Timer function to provide time in nano seconds using C++

You can use Embedded Profiler (free for Windows and Linux) which has an interface to a multiplatform timer (in a processor cycle count) and can give you a number of cycles per seconds:

EProfilerTimer timer;
timer.Start();

... // Your code here

const uint64_t number_of_elapsed_cycles = timer.Stop();
const uint64_t nano_seconds_elapsed =
    mumber_of_elapsed_cycles / (double) timer.GetCyclesPerSecond() * 1000000000;

Recalculation of cycle count to time is possibly a dangerous operation with modern processors where CPU frequency can be changed dynamically. Therefore to be sure that converted times are correct, it is necessary to fix processor frequency before profiling.

Choose folders to be ignored during search in VS Code

You can do this in the search section of vscode by pre-fixing an exclamation mark to each folder or file you want to exclude.

How to "git show" a merge commit with combined diff output even when every changed file agrees with one of the parents?

I think you just need 'git show -c $ref'. Trying this on the git repository on a8e4a59 shows a combined diff (plus/minus chars in one of 2 columns). As the git-show manual mentions, it pretty much delegates to 'git diff-tree' so those options look useful.

How to use comparison and ' if not' in python?

In this particular case the clearest solution is the S.Lott answer

But in some complex logical conditions I would prefer use some boolean algebra to get a clear solution.

Using De Morgan's law ¬(A^B) = ¬Av¬B

not (u0 <= u and u < u0+step)
(not u0 <= u) or (not u < u0+step)
u0 > u or u >= u0+step

then

if u0 > u or u >= u0+step:
    pass

... in this case the «clear» solution is not more clear :P

load and execute order of scripts

The browser will execute the scripts in the order it finds them. If you call an external script, it will block the page until the script has been loaded and executed.

To test this fact:

// file: test.php
sleep(10);
die("alert('Done!');");

// HTML file:
<script type="text/javascript" src="test.php"></script>

Dynamically added scripts are executed as soon as they are appended to the document.

To test this fact:

<!DOCTYPE HTML>
<html>
<head>
    <title>Test</title>
</head>
<body>
    <script type="text/javascript">
        var s = document.createElement('script');
        s.type = "text/javascript";
        s.src = "link.js"; // file contains alert("hello!");
        document.body.appendChild(s);
        alert("appended");
    </script>
    <script type="text/javascript">
        alert("final");
    </script>
</body>
</html>

Order of alerts is "appended" -> "hello!" -> "final"

If in a script you attempt to access an element that hasn't been reached yet (example: <script>do something with #blah</script><div id="blah"></div>) then you will get an error.

Overall, yes you can include external scripts and then access their functions and variables, but only if you exit the current <script> tag and start a new one.

self.tableView.reloadData() not working in Swift

Git "error: The branch 'x' is not fully merged"

I had this happen to me today, as I was merging my very first feature branch back into master. As some said in a thread elsewhere on SO, the trick was switching back to master before trying to delete the branch. Once in back in master, git was happy to delete the branch without any warnings.

How do I get the picture size with PIL?

You can use Pillow (Website, Documentation, GitHub, PyPI). Pillow has the same interface as PIL, but works with Python 3.

Installation

$ pip install Pillow

If you don't have administrator rights (sudo on Debian), you can use

$ pip install --user Pillow

Other notes regarding the installation are here.

Code

from PIL import Image
with Image.open(filepath) as img:
    width, height = img.size

Speed

This needed 3.21 seconds for 30336 images (JPGs from 31x21 to 424x428, training data from National Data Science Bowl on Kaggle)

This is probably the most important reason to use Pillow instead of something self-written. And you should use Pillow instead of PIL (python-imaging), because it works with Python 3.

Alternative #1: Numpy (deprecated)

I keep scipy.ndimage.imread as the information is still out there, but keep in mind:

imread is deprecated! imread is deprecated in SciPy 1.0.0, and [was] removed in 1.2.0.

import scipy.ndimage
height, width, channels = scipy.ndimage.imread(filepath).shape

Alternative #2: Pygame

import pygame
img = pygame.image.load(filepath)
width = img.get_width()
height = img.get_height()

find all subsets that sum to a particular value

Here is a Java Solution:

This is a classical Back tracking problem for finding all possible subsets of the integer array or set that is the input and then filtering those which sum to e given target

import java.util.HashSet;
import java.util.StringTokenizer;

/**
 * Created by anirudh on 12/5/15.
 */
public class findSubsetsThatSumToATarget {

    /**
     * The collection for storing the unique sets that sum to a target.
     */
    private static HashSet<String> allSubsets = new HashSet<>();

    /**
     * The String token
     */
    private static final String token = " ";

    /**

     *
     * @param input  The input array to be processed for subset with particular sum
     * @param target The target sum we are looking for
     * @param ramp   The Temporary String to be beefed up during recursive iterations(By default value an empty String)
     * @param index  The index used to traverse the array during recursive calls
     */
    public static void findTargetSumSubsets(int[] input, int target, String ramp, int index) {

        if(index > (input.length - 1)) {
            if(getSum(ramp) == target) {
                allSubsets.add(ramp);
            }
            return;
        }

        //First recursive call going ahead selecting the int at the currenct index value
        findTargetSumSubsets(input, target, ramp + input[index] + token, index + 1);
        //Second recursive call going ahead WITHOUT selecting the int at the currenct index value
        findTargetSumSubsets(input, target, ramp, index + 1);
    }

    /**
     * A helper Method for calculating the sum from a string of integers
     *
     * @param intString the string subset
     * @return the sum of the string subset
     */
    private static int getSum(String intString) {
        int sum = 0;
        StringTokenizer sTokens = new StringTokenizer(intString, token);
        while (sTokens.hasMoreElements()) {
            sum += Integer.parseInt((String) sTokens.nextElement());
        }
        return sum;
    }

    /**
     * Cracking it down here : )
     *
     * @param args command line arguments.
     */
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        int [] n =  {24, 1, 15, 3, 4, 15, 3};
        int counter = 1;
        FindSubsetsThatSumToATarget.findTargetSumSubsets(n, 25, "", 0);
        for (String str: allSubsets) {
            System.out.println(counter + ") " + str);
            counter++;
        }
    }
}

It gives space separated values of the subsets that sum to a target.

Would print out commma separated values for the subsets that sum to 25 in {24, 1, 15, 3, 4, 15, 3}

1) 24 1

2) 3 4 15 3

3) 15 3 4 3

Spark - repartition() vs coalesce()

But also you should make sure that, the data which is coming coalesce nodes should have highly configured, if you are dealing with huge data. Because all the data will be loaded to those nodes, may lead memory exception. Though reparation is costly, i prefer to use it. Since it shuffles and distribute the data equally.

Be wise to select between coalesce and repartition.

How can I run NUnit tests in Visual Studio 2017?

You have to choose the processor architecture of unit tests in Visual Studio: menu Test ? Test Settings ? Default processor architecture
Test Adapter has to be open to see the tests: (Visual Studio e.g.: menu Test ? Windows ? Test Explorer

Additional information what's going on, you can consider at the Visual Studio 'Output-Window' and choose the dropdown 'Show output from' and set 'Tests'.

HttpContext.Current.User.Identity.Name is Empty

These might resolve the issue(It did for me). In IIS Express change the project property values, "Anonymous Authentication" and "Windows Authentication". To do this, when project is selected, press F4 and then change these properties.

In case you are deploying it on IIS locally, make sure local machines "Windows Authentication" feature is enabled and "Anonymous Authentication" is disabled.

json Uncaught SyntaxError: Unexpected token :

I have spent the last few days trying to figure this out myself. Using the old json dataType gives you cross origin problems, while setting the dataType to jsonp makes the data "unreadable" as explained above. So there are apparently two ways out, the first hasn't worked for me but seems like a potential solution and that I might be doing something wrong. This is explained here [ https://learn.jquery.com/ajax/working-with-jsonp/ ].

The one that worked for me is as follows: 1- download the ajax cross origin plug in [ http://www.ajax-cross-origin.com/ ]. 2- add a script link to it just below the normal jQuery link. 3- add the line "crossOrigin: true," to your ajax function.

Good to go! here is my working code for this:

_x000D_

  $.ajax({_x000D_
      crossOrigin: true,_x000D_
      url : "https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/place/nearbysearch/json?location=-33.86,151.195&radius=5000&type=ATM&keyword=ATM&key=MyKey",_x000D_
      type : "GET",_x000D_
      success:function(data){_x000D_
         console.log(data);_x000D_
      }_x000D_
    })

How to make a parent div auto size to the width of its children divs

The parent div (I assume the outermost div) is display: block and will fill up all available area of its container (in this case, the body) that it can. Use a different display type -- inline-block is probably what you are going for:

Does VBScript have a substring() function?

Yes, Mid.

Dim sub_str
sub_str = Mid(source_str, 10, 5)

The first parameter is the source string, the second is the start index, and the third is the length.

@bobobobo: Note that VBScript strings are 1-based, not 0-based. Passing 0 as an argument to Mid results in "invalid procedure call or argument Mid".

Algorithm to return all combinations of k elements from n

Simple recursive algorithm in Haskell

import Data.List

combinations 0 lst = [[]]
combinations n lst = do
    (x:xs) <- tails lst
    rest   <- combinations (n-1) xs
    return $ x : rest

We first define the special case, i.e. selecting zero elements. It produces a single result, which is an empty list (i.e. a list that contains an empty list).

For n > 0, x goes through every element of the list and xs is every element after x.

rest picks n - 1 elements from xs using a recursive call to combinations. The final result of the function is a list where each element is x : rest (i.e. a list which has x as head and rest as tail) for every different value of x and rest.

> combinations 3 "abcde"
["abc","abd","abe","acd","ace","ade","bcd","bce","bde","cde"]

And of course, since Haskell is lazy, the list is gradually generated as needed, so you can partially evaluate exponentially large combinations.

> let c = combinations 8 "abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz"
> take 10 c
["abcdefgh","abcdefgi","abcdefgj","abcdefgk","abcdefgl","abcdefgm","abcdefgn",
 "abcdefgo","abcdefgp","abcdefgq"]

cannot call member function without object

You need to instantiate an object in order to call its member functions. The member functions need an object to operate on; they can't just be used on their own. The main() function could, for example, look like this:

int main()
{
   Name_pairs np;
   cout << "Enter names and ages. Use 0 to cancel.\n";
   while(np.test())
   {
      np.read_names();
      np.read_ages();
   }
   np.print();
   keep_window_open();
}

Why is null an object and what's the difference between null and undefined?

null is not an object, it is a primitive value. For example, you cannot add properties to it. Sometimes people wrongly assume that it is an object, because typeof null returns "object". But that is actually a bug (that might even be fixed in ECMAScript 6).

The difference between null and undefined is as follows:

undefined: used by JavaScript and means “no value”. Uninitialized variables, missing parameters and unknown variables have that value.

> var noValueYet;
> console.log(noValueYet);
undefined

> function foo(x) { console.log(x) }
> foo()
undefined

> var obj = {};
> console.log(obj.unknownProperty)
undefined

Accessing unknown variables, however, produces an exception:

> unknownVariable
ReferenceError: unknownVariable is not defined

null: used by programmers to indicate “no value”, e.g. as a parameter to a function.

Examining a variable:

console.log(typeof unknownVariable === "undefined"); // true

var foo;
console.log(typeof foo === "undefined"); // true
console.log(foo === undefined); // true

var bar = null;
console.log(bar === null); // true

As a general rule, you should always use === and never == in JavaScript (== performs all kinds of conversions that can produce unexpected results). The check x == null is an edge case, because it works for both null and undefined:

> null == null
true
> undefined == null
true

A common way of checking whether a variable has a value is to convert it to boolean and see whether it is true. That conversion is performed by the if statement and the boolean operator ! (“not”).

function foo(param) {
    if (param) {
        // ...
    }
}
function foo(param) {
    if (! param) param = "abc";
}
function foo(param) {
    // || returns first operand that can't be converted to false
    param = param || "abc";
}

Drawback of this approach: All of the following values evaluate to false, so you have to be careful (e.g., the above checks can’t distinguish between undefined and 0).

undefined, null
Booleans: false
Numbers: +0, -0, NaN
Strings: ""

You can test the conversion to boolean by using Boolean as a function (normally it is a constructor, to be used with new):

> Boolean(null)
false
> Boolean("")
false
> Boolean(3-3)
false
> Boolean({})
true
> Boolean([])
true

How to prevent 'query timeout expired'? (SQLNCLI11 error '80040e31')

Turns out that the post (or rather the whole table) was locked by the very same connection that I tried to update the post with.

I had a opened record set of the post that was created by:

Set RecSet = Conn.Execute()

This type of recordset is supposed to be read-only and when I was using MS Access as database it did not lock anything. But apparently this type of record set did lock something on MS SQL Server 2012 because when I added these lines of code before executing the UPDATE SQL statement...

RecSet.Close
Set RecSet = Nothing

...everything worked just fine.

So bottom line is to be careful with opened record sets - even if they are read-only they could lock your table from updates.

Apply multiple functions to multiple groupby columns

New in version 0.25.0.

To support column-specific aggregation with control over the output column names, pandas accepts the special syntax in GroupBy.agg(), known as “named aggregation”, where

The keywords are the output column names
The values are tuples whose first element is the column to select and the second element is the aggregation to apply to that column. Pandas provides the pandas.NamedAgg namedtuple with the fields ['column', 'aggfunc'] to make it clearer what the arguments are. As usual, the aggregation can be a callable or a string alias.

    In [79]: animals = pd.DataFrame({'kind': ['cat', 'dog', 'cat', 'dog'],
       ....:                         'height': [9.1, 6.0, 9.5, 34.0],
       ....:                         'weight': [7.9, 7.5, 9.9, 198.0]})
       ....: 

    In [80]: animals
    Out[80]: 
      kind  height  weight
    0  cat     9.1     7.9
    1  dog     6.0     7.5
    2  cat     9.5     9.9
    3  dog    34.0   198.0

    In [81]: animals.groupby("kind").agg(
       ....:     min_height=pd.NamedAgg(column='height', aggfunc='min'),
       ....:     max_height=pd.NamedAgg(column='height', aggfunc='max'),
       ....:     average_weight=pd.NamedAgg(column='weight', aggfunc=np.mean),
       ....: )
       ....: 
    Out[81]: 
          min_height  max_height  average_weight
    kind                                        
    cat          9.1         9.5            8.90
    dog          6.0        34.0          102.75

pandas.NamedAgg is just a namedtuple. Plain tuples are allowed as well.

    In [82]: animals.groupby("kind").agg(
       ....:     min_height=('height', 'min'),
       ....:     max_height=('height', 'max'),
       ....:     average_weight=('weight', np.mean),
       ....: )
       ....: 
    Out[82]: 
          min_height  max_height  average_weight
    kind                                        
    cat          9.1         9.5            8.90
    dog          6.0        34.0          102.75

Additional keyword arguments are not passed through to the aggregation functions. Only pairs of (column, aggfunc) should be passed as **kwargs. If your aggregation functions requires additional arguments, partially apply them with functools.partial().

Named aggregation is also valid for Series groupby aggregations. In this case there’s no column selection, so the values are just the functions.

    In [84]: animals.groupby("kind").height.agg(
       ....:     min_height='min',
       ....:     max_height='max',
       ....: )
       ....: 
    Out[84]: 
          min_height  max_height
    kind                        
    cat          9.1         9.5
    dog          6.0        34.0

Opening a folder in explorer and selecting a file

Just my 2 cents worth, if your filename contains spaces, ie "c:\My File Contains Spaces.txt", you'll need to surround the filename with quotes otherwise explorer will assume that the othe words are different arguments...

Display Records From MySQL Database using JTable in Java

this is the easy way to do that you just need to download the jar file "rs2xml.jar" add it to your project and do that : 1- creat a connection 2- statment and resultset 3- creat a jtable 4- give the result set to DbUtils.resultSetToTableModel(rs) as define in this methode you well get your jtable so easy.

public void afficherAll(String tableName){
        String sql="select * from "+tableName;
        try {
            stmt=con.createStatement();
            rs=stmt.executeQuery(sql);
            tbContTable.setModel(DbUtils.resultSetToTableModel(rs));
        } catch (SQLException e) {
            // TODO Auto-generated catch block
             JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null, e);
        }       
    }

Create a directory if it does not exist and then create the files in that directory as well

I would suggest the following for Java8+.

/**
 * Creates a File if the file does not exist, or returns a
 * reference to the File if it already exists.
 */
private File createOrRetrieve(final String target) throws IOException{

    final Path path = Paths.get(target);

    if(Files.notExists(path)){
        LOG.info("Target file \"" + target + "\" will be created.");
        return Files.createFile(Files.createDirectories(path)).toFile();
    }
    LOG.info("Target file \"" + target + "\" will be retrieved.");
    return path.toFile();
}

/**
 * Deletes the target if it exists then creates a new empty file.
 */
private File createOrReplaceFileAndDirectories(final String target) throws IOException{

    final Path path = Paths.get(target);
    // Create only if it does not exist already
    Files.walk(path)
        .filter(p -> Files.exists(p))
        .sorted(Comparator.reverseOrder())
        .peek(p -> LOG.info("Deleted existing file or directory \"" + p + "\"."))
        .forEach(p -> {
            try{
                Files.createFile(Files.createDirectories(p));
            }
            catch(IOException e){
                throw new IllegalStateException(e);
            }
        });

    LOG.info("Target file \"" + target + "\" will be created.");

    return Files.createFile(
        Files.createDirectories(path)
    ).toFile();
}

500 internal server error at GetResponse()

From that error, I would say that your code is fine, at least the part that calls the webservice. The error seems to be in the actual web service.

To get the error from the web server, add a try catch and catch a WebException. A WebException has a property called Response which is a HttpResponse. you can then log anything that is returned, and upload you code. Check back later in the logs and see what is actually being returned.

Proper way of checking if row exists in table in PL/SQL block

Many ways to skin this cat. I put a simple function in each table's package...

function exists( id_in in yourTable.id%type ) return boolean is
  res boolean := false;
begin
  for c1 in ( select 1 from yourTable where id = id_in and rownum = 1 ) loop
    res := true;
    exit; -- only care about one record, so exit.
  end loop;
  return( res );
end exists;

Makes your checks really clean...

IF pkg.exists(someId) THEN
...
ELSE
...
END IF;

How to refresh Gridview after pressed a button in asp.net

I was totally lost on why my Gridview.Databind() would not refresh.

My issue, I discovered, was my gridview was inside a UpdatePanel. To get my GridView to FINALLY refresh was this:

gvServerConfiguration.Databind()
uppServerConfiguration.Update()

uppServerConfiguration is the id associated with my UpdatePanel in my asp.net code.

Hope this helps someone.

counter = 1
while (N > 0):
    counter = counter * N
    N = N - 1
    print(counter)
    break

How do I indent multiple lines at once in Notepad++?

It works fine for my v. 5.4.5 of Notepad++. I just select multiple lines and press TAB.

If you want TAB to be replaced by SPACE than you need to go Settings > Preferences and select Edit Components tab. Next check Replace by spaces check box in Tab Setting section.

Update: In a newer version of Notepad++ this option is in Settings > Preferences > Languaage section.

Getting Index of an item in an arraylist;

Basically you need to look up ArrayList element based on name getName. Two approaches to this problem:

1- Don't use ArrayList, Use HashMap<String,AutionItem> where String would be name

2- Use getName to generate index and use index based addition into array list list.add(int index, E element). One way to generate index from name would be to use its hashCode and modulo by ArrayList current size (something similar what is used inside HashMap)

php get values from json encode

json_decode will return the same array that was originally encoded. For instanse, if you

$array = json_decode($json, true);
echo $array['countryId'];

$obj= json_decode($json);

echo $obj->countryId;

These both will echo 84. I think json_encode and json_decode function names are self-explanatory...

Using :after to clear floating elements

Use

Java JTextField with input hint

You could create your own:

import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.event.ActionEvent;
import java.awt.event.ActionListener;
import java.awt.event.FocusEvent;
import java.awt.event.FocusListener;
import javax.swing.*;

public class Main {

  public static void main(String[] args) {

    final JFrame frame = new JFrame();

    frame.setLayout(new BorderLayout());

    final JTextField textFieldA = new HintTextField("A hint here");
    final JTextField textFieldB = new HintTextField("Another hint here");

    frame.add(textFieldA, BorderLayout.NORTH);
    frame.add(textFieldB, BorderLayout.CENTER);
    JButton btnGetText = new JButton("Get text");

    btnGetText.addActionListener(new ActionListener() {
      @Override
      public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
        String message = String.format("textFieldA='%s', textFieldB='%s'",
            textFieldA.getText(), textFieldB.getText());
        JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(frame, message);
      }
    });

    frame.add(btnGetText, BorderLayout.SOUTH);
    frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(WindowConstants.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
    frame.setVisible(true);
    frame.pack();
  }
}

class HintTextField extends JTextField implements FocusListener {

  private final String hint;
  private boolean showingHint;

  public HintTextField(final String hint) {
    super(hint);
    this.hint = hint;
    this.showingHint = true;
    super.addFocusListener(this);
  }

  @Override
  public void focusGained(FocusEvent e) {
    if(this.getText().isEmpty()) {
      super.setText("");
      showingHint = false;
    }
  }
  @Override
  public void focusLost(FocusEvent e) {
    if(this.getText().isEmpty()) {
      super.setText(hint);
      showingHint = true;
    }
  }

  @Override
  public String getText() {
    return showingHint ? "" : super.getText();
  }
}

If you're still on Java 1.5, replace the this.getText().isEmpty() with this.getText().length() == 0.

Filtering a pyspark dataframe using isin by exclusion

Got a gotcha for those with their headspace in Pandas and moving to pyspark

 from pyspark import SparkConf, SparkContext
 from pyspark.sql import SQLContext

 spark_conf = SparkConf().setMaster("local").setAppName("MyAppName")
 sc = SparkContext(conf = spark_conf)
 sqlContext = SQLContext(sc)

 records = [
     {"colour": "red"},
     {"colour": "blue"},
     {"colour": None},
 ]

 pandas_df = pd.DataFrame.from_dict(records)
 pyspark_df = sqlContext.createDataFrame(records)

So if we wanted the rows that are not red:

pandas_df[~pandas_df["colour"].isin(["red"])]

Looking good, and in our pyspark DataFrame

pyspark_df.filter(~pyspark_df["colour"].isin(["red"])).collect()

So after some digging, I found this: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-20617 So to include nothingness in our results:

pyspark_df.filter(~pyspark_df["colour"].isin(["red"]) | pyspark_df["colour"].isNull()).show()

Cross-Origin Request Blocked: The Same Origin Policy disallows reading the remote resource at

The use-case for CORS is simple. Imagine the site alice.com has some data that the site bob.com wants to access. This type of request traditionally wouldn’t be allowed under the browser’s same origin policy. However, by supporting CORS requests, alice.com can add a few special response headers that allows bob.com to access the data. In order to understand it well, please visit this nice tutorial..

How to display multiple notifications in android

Below is the code for pass unique notification id:

//"CommonUtilities.getValudeFromOreference" is the method created by me to get value from savedPreferences.
String notificationId = CommonUtilities.getValueFromPreference(context, Global.NOTIFICATION_ID, "0");
int notificationIdinInt = Integer.parseInt(notificationId);

notificationManager.notify(notificationIdinInt, notification);

// will increment notification id for uniqueness
notificationIdinInt = notificationIdinInt + 1;
CommonUtilities.saveValueToPreference(context, Global.NOTIFICATION_ID, notificationIdinInt + "");
//Above "CommonUtilities.saveValueToPreference" is the method created by me to save new value in savePreferences.

Reset notificationId in savedPreferences at specific range like I have did it at 1000. So it will not create any issues in future. Let me know if you need more detail information or any query. :)

How to append contents of multiple files into one file

If you want to append contents of 3 files into one file, then the following command will be a good choice:

cat file1 file2 file3 | tee -a file4 > /dev/null

It will combine the contents of all files into file4, throwing console output to /dev/null.

Force browser to refresh css, javascript, etc

In stead of link-tag in html-head to external css file, use php-include:

Kind of hack, but works for me :)

This index size limit seems to be larger on 64 bit builds of MySQL.

I was hitting this limitation trying to dump our dev database and load it on a local VMWare virt. Finally I realized that the remote dev server was 64 bit and I had created a 32 bit virt. I just created a 64 bit virt and I was able to load the database locally.

How can I add a class attribute to an HTML element generated by MVC's HTML Helpers?

Current best practice in CSS development is to create more general selectors with modifiers that can be applied as widely as possible throughout the web site. I would try to avoid defining separate styles for individual page elements.

If the purpose of the CSS class on the <form/> element is to control the style of elements within the form, you could add the class attribute the existing <fieldset/> element which encapsulates any form by default in web pages generated by ASP.NET MVC. A CSS class on the form is rarely necessary.

How to use the CSV MIME-type?

You could try to force the browser to open a "Save As..." dialog by doing something like:

header('Content-type: text/csv');
header('Content-disposition: attachment;filename=MyVerySpecial.csv');
echo "cell 1, cell 2";

Which should work across most major browsers.

Difference between frontend, backend, and middleware in web development

Frontend refers to the client-side, whereas backend refers to the server-side of the application. Both are crucial to web development, but their roles, responsibilities and the environments they work in are totally different. Frontend is basically what users see whereas backend is how everything works

Importing modules from parent folder

If adding your module folder to the PYTHONPATH didn't work, You can modify the sys.path list in your program where the Python interpreter searches for the modules to import, the python documentation says:

When a module named spam is imported, the interpreter first searches for a built-in module with that name. If not found, it then searches for a file named spam.py in a list of directories given by the variable sys.path. sys.path is initialized from these locations:

the directory containing the input script (or the current directory).

PYTHONPATH (a list of directory names, with the same syntax as the shell variable PATH).

the installation-dependent default.

After initialization, Python programs can modify sys.path. The directory containing the script being run is placed at the beginning of the search path, ahead of the standard library path. This means that scripts in that directory will be loaded instead of modules of the same name in the library directory. This is an error unless the replacement is intended.

Knowing this, you can do the following in your program:

import sys
# Add the ptdraft folder path to the sys.path list
sys.path.append('/path/to/ptdraft/')

# Now you can import your module
from ptdraft import nib
# Or just
import ptdraft
