Closures are simple

You probably shouldn't tell a six-year old about closures, but if you do, you might say that closure gives an ability to gain access to a variable declared in some other function scope.

function getA() {
  var a = [];

  // this action happens later,
  // after the function returned
  // the `a` value
  setTimeout(function() {
    a.splice(0, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5);
  });

  return a;
}

var a = getA();
out('What is `a` length?');
out('`a` length is ' + a.length);

setTimeout(function() {
  out('No wait...');
  out('`a` length is ' + a.length);
  out('OK :|')
});

<pre id="output"></pre>

<script>
  function out(k) {
    document.getElementById('output').innerHTML += '> ' + k + '\n';
  }
</script>

It's a JavaScript quirk. When a function is a property of an object, more aptly called a method, this refers to the object. In the example of an event handler, the containing object is the element that triggered the event. When a standard function is invoked, this will refer to the global object. When you have nested functions as in your example, this does not relate to the context of the outer function at all. Inner functions do share scope with the containing function, so developers will use variations of var that = this in order to preserve the this they need in the inner function.

The question has already been answered by aaronasterling

However, someone might be interested in how the variables are stored under the hood.

Before coming to the snippet:

Closures are functions that inherit variables from their enclosing environment. When you pass a function callback as an argument to another function that will do I/O, this callback function will be invoked later, and this function will — almost magically — remember the context in which it was declared, along with all the variables available in that context.

• If a function does not use free variables it doesn't form a closure.

• If there is another inner level which uses free variables -- all previous levels save the lexical environment ( example at the end )

• function attributes func_closure in python < 3.X or __closure__ in python > 3.X save the free variables.

• Every function in python has this closure attributes, but it doesn't save any content if there is no free variables.

example: of closure attributes but no content inside as there is no free variable.

>>> def foo():
...     def fii():
...         pass
...     return fii
...
>>> f = foo()
>>> f.func_closure
>>> 'func_closure' in dir(f)
True
>>>

NB: FREE VARIABLE IS MUST TO CREATE A CLOSURE.

I will explain using the same snippet as above:

>>> def make_printer(msg):
...     def printer():
...         print msg
...     return printer
...
>>> printer = make_printer('Foo!')
>>> printer()  #Output: Foo!

And all Python functions have a closure attribute so let's examine the enclosing variables associated with a closure function.

Here is the attribute func_closure for the function printer

>>> 'func_closure' in dir(printer)
True
>>> printer.func_closure
(<cell at 0x108154c90: str object at 0x108151de0>,)
>>>

The closure attribute returns a tuple of cell objects which contain details of the variables defined in the enclosing scope.

The first element in the func_closure which could be None or a tuple of cells that contain bindings for the function’s free variables and it is read-only.

>>> dir(printer.func_closure[0])
['__class__', '__cmp__', '__delattr__', '__doc__', '__format__', '__getattribute__',
 '__hash__', '__init__', '__new__', '__reduce__', '__reduce_ex__', '__repr__', 
 '__setattr__',  '__sizeof__', '__str__', '__subclasshook__', 'cell_contents']
>>>

Here in the above output you can see cell_contents, let's see what it stores:

>>> printer.func_closure[0].cell_contents
'Foo!'    
>>> type(printer.func_closure[0].cell_contents)
<type 'str'>
>>>

So, when we called the function printer(), it accesses the value stored inside the cell_contents. This is how we got the output as 'Foo!'

Again I will explain using the above snippet with some changes:

 >>> def make_printer(msg):
 ...     def printer():
 ...         pass
 ...     return printer
 ...
 >>> printer = make_printer('Foo!')
 >>> printer.func_closure
 >>>

In the above snippet, I din't print msg inside the printer function, so it doesn't create any free variable. As there is no free variable, there will be no content inside the closure. Thats exactly what we see above.

Now I will explain another different snippet to clear out everything Free Variable with Closure:

>>> def outer(x):
...     def intermediate(y):
...         free = 'free'
...         def inner(z):
...             return '%s %s %s %s' %  (x, y, free, z)
...         return inner
...     return intermediate
...
>>> outer('I')('am')('variable')
'I am free variable'
>>>
>>> inter = outer('I')
>>> inter.func_closure
(<cell at 0x10c989130: str object at 0x10c831b98>,)
>>> inter.func_closure[0].cell_contents
'I'
>>> inn = inter('am')

So, we see that a func_closure property is a tuple of closure cells, we can refer them and their contents explicitly -- a cell has property "cell_contents"

>>> inn.func_closure
(<cell at 0x10c9807c0: str object at 0x10c9b0990>, 
 <cell at 0x10c980f68: str object at   0x10c9eaf30>, 
 <cell at 0x10c989130: str object at 0x10c831b98>)
>>> for i in inn.func_closure:
...     print i.cell_contents
...
free
am 
I
>>>

Here when we called inn, it will refer all the save free variables so we get I am free variable

>>> inn('variable')
'I am free variable'
>>>

onclick vs addEventListener. A matter of preference perhaps (where IE>9).

// Using closures
function onClickLink(e, index) {   
    alert(index);
    return false;
}

var div = document.getElementById('div');

for (var i = 0; i < 10; i++) {
    var link = document.createElement('a');

    link.setAttribute('href', '#');
    link.innerHTML = i + '';
    link.addEventListener('click', (function(e) {
        var index = i;
        return function(e) {
            return onClickLink(e, index);
        }
    })(), false);
    div.appendChild(link);
    div.appendChild(document.createElement('BR'));
}

How abut just using a plain data-* attribute, not as cool as a closure, but..

function onClickLink(e) {       
    alert(e.target.getAttribute('data-index'));
    return false;
}

var div = document.getElementById('div');

for (var i = 0; i < 10; i++) {
    var link = document.createElement('a');

    link.setAttribute('href', '#');
    link.setAttribute('data-index', i);
    link.innerHTML = i + ' Hello';        
    link.addEventListener('click', onClickLink, false);
    div.appendChild(link);
    div.appendChild(document.createElement('BR'));
}

The compiler complains on

var completionHandler: (Float)->Void = {}

because the right-hand side is not a closure of the appropriate signature, i.e. a closure taking a float argument. The following would assign a "do nothing" closure to the completion handler:

var completionHandler: (Float)->Void = {
    (arg: Float) -> Void in
}

and this can be shortened to

var completionHandler: (Float)->Void = { arg in }

due to the automatic type inference.

But what you probably want is that the completion handler is initialized to nil in the same way that an Objective-C instance variable is inititialized to nil. In Swift this can be realized with an optional:

var completionHandler: ((Float)->Void)?

Now the property is automatically initialized to nil ("no value"). In Swift you would use optional binding to check of a the completion handler has a value

if let handler = completionHandler {
    handler(result)
}

or optional chaining:

completionHandler?(result)

Zupa did a great job explaining closures with 'use' and the difference between EarlyBinding and Referencing the variables that are 'used'.

So I made a code example with early binding of a variable (= copying):

<?php

$a = 1;
$b = 2;

$closureExampleEarlyBinding = function() use ($a, $b){
    $a++;
    $b++;
    echo "Inside \$closureExampleEarlyBinding() \$a = ".$a."<br />";
    echo "Inside \$closureExampleEarlyBinding() \$b = ".$b."<br />";    
};

echo "Before executing \$closureExampleEarlyBinding() \$a = ".$a."<br />";
echo "Before executing \$closureExampleEarlyBinding() \$b = ".$b."<br />";  

$closureExampleEarlyBinding();

echo "After executing \$closureExampleEarlyBinding() \$a = ".$a."<br />";
echo "After executing \$closureExampleEarlyBinding() \$b = ".$b."<br />";

/* this will output:
Before executing $closureExampleEarlyBinding() $a = 1
Before executing $closureExampleEarlyBinding() $b = 2
Inside $closureExampleEarlyBinding() $a = 2
Inside $closureExampleEarlyBinding() $b = 3
After executing $closureExampleEarlyBinding() $a = 1
After executing $closureExampleEarlyBinding() $b = 2
*/

?>

Example with referencing a variable (notice the '&' character before variable);

<?php

$a = 1;
$b = 2;

$closureExampleReferencing = function() use (&$a, &$b){
    $a++;
    $b++;
    echo "Inside \$closureExampleReferencing() \$a = ".$a."<br />";
    echo "Inside \$closureExampleReferencing() \$b = ".$b."<br />"; 
};

echo "Before executing \$closureExampleReferencing() \$a = ".$a."<br />";
echo "Before executing \$closureExampleReferencing() \$b = ".$b."<br />";   

$closureExampleReferencing();

echo "After executing \$closureExampleReferencing() \$a = ".$a."<br />";
echo "After executing \$closureExampleReferencing() \$b = ".$b."<br />";    

/* this will output:
Before executing $closureExampleReferencing() $a = 1
Before executing $closureExampleReferencing() $b = 2
Inside $closureExampleReferencing() $a = 2
Inside $closureExampleReferencing() $b = 3
After executing $closureExampleReferencing() $a = 2
After executing $closureExampleReferencing() $b = 3
*/

?>

Python is not purely lexically scoped.

See this: Using global variables in a function

and this: https://www.saltycrane.com/blog/2008/01/python-variable-scope-notes/

According to Tom Hawtin

A closure is a block of code that can be referenced (and passed around) with access to the variables of the enclosing scope.

Now I'm trying to emulate the JavaScript closure example on Wikipedia, with a "straigth" translation to Java, in the hope to be useful:

//ECMAScript
var f, g;
function foo() {
  var x = 0;
  f = function() { return ++x; };
  g = function() { return --x; };
  x = 1;
  print('inside foo, call to f(): ' + f()); // "2"  
}
foo();
print('call to g(): ' + g()); // "1"
print('call to f(): ' + f()); // "2"

Now the java part: Function1 is "Functor" interface with arity 1 (one argument). Closure is the class implementing the Function1, a concrete Functor that acts as function (int -> int). In the main() method I just instantiate foo as a Closure object, replicating the calls from the JavaScript example. The IntBox class is just a simple container, it behave like an array of 1 int:

int a[1] = {0}

interface Function1   {
    public final IntBag value = new IntBag();
    public int apply();
}

class Closure implements Function1 {
   private IntBag x = value;
   Function1 f;
   Function1 g;

   @Override
   public int apply()  {
    // print('inside foo, call to f(): ' + f()); // "2"
    // inside apply, call to f.apply()
       System.out.println("inside foo, call to f.apply(): " + f.apply());
       return 0;
   }

   public Closure() {
       f = new Function1() {
           @Override
           public int apply()  {
               x.add(1);
                return x.get();
           }
       };
       g = new Function1() {
           @Override
           public int apply()  {
               x.add(-1);
               return x.get();
           }
       };
    // x = 1;
       x.set(1);
   }
}
public class ClosureTest {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        // foo()
        Closure foo = new Closure();
        foo.apply();
        // print('call to g(): ' + g()); // "1"
        System.out.println("call to foo.g.apply(): " + foo.g.apply());
        // print('call to f(): ' + f()); // "2"
        System.out.println("call to foo.f.apply(): " + foo.f.apply());

    }
}

It prints:

inside foo, call to f.apply(): 2
call to foo.g.apply(): 1
call to foo.f.apply(): 2 

The reason you get a Null Pointer Exception is because there is no key likesZZZ in your second example. Try:

def mymap = [name:"Gromit", likes:"cheese", id:1234]
def x = mymap.find{ it.key == "likes" }.value
if(x)
    println "x value: ${x}"

Editor's Note: All functions in JavaScript are closures as explained in this post. However we are only interested in identifying a subset of these functions which are interesting from a theoretical point of view. Henceforth any reference to the word closure will refer to this subset of functions unless otherwise stated.

A simple explanation for closures:

1. Take a function. Let's call it F.
2. List all the variables of F.
3. The variables may be of two types:
   1. Local variables (bound variables)
   2. Non-local variables (free variables)
4. If F has no free variables then it cannot be a closure.
5. If F has any free variables (which are defined in a parent scope of F) then:
   1. There must be only one parent scope of F to which a free variable is bound.
   2. If F is referenced from outside that parent scope, then it becomes a closure for that free variable.
   3. That free variable is called an upvalue of the closure F.

Now let's use this to figure out who uses closures and who doesn't (for the sake of explanation I have named the functions):

Case 1: Your Friend's Program

for (var i = 0; i < 10; i++) {
    (function f() {
        var i2 = i;
        setTimeout(function g() {
            console.log(i2);
        }, 1000);
    })();
}

In the above program there are two functions: f and g. Let's see if they are closures:

For f:

1. List the variables:
   1. i2 is a local variable.
   2. i is a free variable.
   3. setTimeout is a free variable.
   4. g is a local variable.
   5. console is a free variable.
2. Find the parent scope to which each free variable is bound:
   1. i is bound to the global scope.
   2. setTimeout is bound to the global scope.
   3. console is bound to the global scope.
3. In which scope is the function referenced? The global scope.
   1. Hence i is not closed over by f.
   2. Hence setTimeout is not closed over by f.
   3. Hence console is not closed over by f.

Thus the function f is not a closure.

For g:

1. List the variables:
   1. console is a free variable.
   2. i2 is a free variable.
2. Find the parent scope to which each free variable is bound:
   1. console is bound to the global scope.
   2. i2 is bound to the scope of f.
3. In which scope is the function referenced? The scope of setTimeout.
   1. Hence console is not closed over by g.
   2. Hence i2 is closed over by g.

Thus the function g is a closure for the free variable i2 (which is an upvalue for g) when it's referenced from within setTimeout.

Bad for you: Your friend is using a closure. The inner function is a closure.

Case 2: Your Program

for (var i = 0; i < 10; i++) {
    setTimeout((function f(i2) {
        return function g() {
            console.log(i2);
        };
    })(i), 1000);
}

In the above program there are two functions: f and g. Let's see if they are closures:

For f:

1. List the variables:
   1. i2 is a local variable.
   2. g is a local variable.
   3. console is a free variable.
2. Find the parent scope to which each free variable is bound:
   1. console is bound to the global scope.
3. In which scope is the function referenced? The global scope.
   1. Hence console is not closed over by f.

Thus the function f is not a closure.

For g:

1. List the variables:
   1. console is a free variable.
   2. i2 is a free variable.
2. Find the parent scope to which each free variable is bound:
   1. console is bound to the global scope.
   2. i2 is bound to the scope of f.
3. In which scope is the function referenced? The scope of setTimeout.
   1. Hence console is not closed over by g.
   2. Hence i2 is closed over by g.

Thus the function g is a closure for the free variable i2 (which is an upvalue for g) when it's referenced from within setTimeout.

Good for you: You are using a closure. The inner function is a closure.

So both you and your friend are using closures. Stop arguing. I hope I cleared the concept of closures and how to identify them for the both of you.

Edit: A simple explanation as to why are all functions closures (credits @Peter):

First let's consider the following program (it's the control):

lexicalScope();_x000D_
_x000D_
function lexicalScope() {_x000D_
    var message = "This is the control. You should be able to see this message being alerted.";_x000D_
_x000D_
    regularFunction();_x000D_
_x000D_
    function regularFunction() {_x000D_
        alert(eval("message"));_x000D_
    }_x000D_
}

1. We know that both lexicalScope and regularFunction aren't closures from the above definition.
2. When we execute the program we expect message to be alerted because regularFunction is not a closure (i.e. it has access to all the variables in its parent scope - including message).
3. When we execute the program we observe that message is indeed alerted.

Next let's consider the following program (it's the alternative):

var closureFunction = lexicalScope();_x000D_
_x000D_
closureFunction();_x000D_
_x000D_
function lexicalScope() {_x000D_
    var message = "This is the alternative. If you see this message being alerted then in means that every function in JavaScript is a closure.";_x000D_
_x000D_
    return function closureFunction() {_x000D_
        alert(eval("message"));_x000D_
    };_x000D_
}

1. We know that only closureFunction is a closure from the above definition.
2. When we execute the program we expect message not to be alerted because closureFunction is a closure (i.e. it only has access to all its non-local variables at the time the function is created (see this answer) - this does not include message).
3. When we execute the program we observe that message is actually being alerted.

What do we infer from this?

1. JavaScript interpreters do not treat closures differently from the way they treat other functions.
2. Every function carries its scope chain along with it. Closures don't have a separate referencing environment.
3. A closure is just like every other function. We just call them closures when they are referenced in a scope outside the scope to which they belong because this is an interesting case.

If you are doing ES2015 or doing type script and ES5 then you can use arrow functions in your code and you don't face that error and this refers to your desired scope in your instance.

this.name = 'test'
myObject.doSomething(data => {
  console.log(this.name)  // this should print out 'test'
});

As an explanation: In ES2015 arrow functions capture this from their defining scope. Normal function definitions don't do that.

It looks like this question has been answered all ready, but I'll post my input anyway.

I know when I like to use self-executing functions.

var myObject = {
    childObject: new function(){
        // bunch of code
    },
    objVar1: <value>,
    objVar2: <value>
}

The function allows me to use some extra code to define the childObjects attributes and properties for cleaner code, such as setting commonly used variables or executing mathematic equations; Oh! or error checking. as opposed to being limited to nested object instantiation syntax of...

object: {
    childObject: {
        childObject: {<value>, <value>, <value>}
    }, 
    objVar1: <value>,
    objVar2: <value>
}

Coding in general has a lot of obscure ways of doing a lot of the same things, making you wonder, "Why bother?" But new situations keep popping up where you can no longer rely on basic/core principals alone.

help('nonlocal') The nonlocal statement

---

    nonlocal_stmt ::= "nonlocal" identifier ("," identifier)*

The nonlocal statement causes the listed identifiers to refer to previously bound variables in the nearest enclosing scope. This is important because the default behavior for binding is to search the local namespace first. The statement allows encapsulated code to rebind variables outside of the local scope besides the global (module) scope.

Names listed in a nonlocal statement, unlike to those listed in a global statement, must refer to pre-existing bindings in an enclosing scope (the scope in which a new binding should be created cannot be determined unambiguously).

Names listed in a nonlocal statement must not collide with pre- existing bindings in the local scope.

See also:

PEP 3104 - Access to Names in Outer Scopes
The specification for the nonlocal statement.

I find lambda useful for a list of functions that do the same, but for different circumstances.

Like the Mozilla plural rules:

plural_rules = [
    lambda n: 'all',
    lambda n: 'singular' if n == 1 else 'plural',
    lambda n: 'singular' if 0 <= n <= 1 else 'plural',
    ...
]
# Call plural rule #1 with argument 4 to find out which sentence form to use.
plural_rule[1](4) # returns 'plural'

If you'd have to define a function for all of those you'd go mad by the end of it.
Also, it wouldn't be nice with function names like plural_rule_1, plural_rule_2, etc. And you'd need to eval() it when you're depending on a variable function id.

We will check , what actually happens when you declare var and let one by one.

Case1 : using var

<script>
   var funcs = [];
   for (var i = 0; i < 3; i++) {
     funcs[i] = function () {
        debugger;
        console.log("My value: " + i);
     };
   }
   console.log(funcs);
</script>

Now open your chrome console window by pressing F12 and refresh the page. Expend every 3 functions inside the array.You will see an property called [[Scopes]].Expand that one. You will see one array object called "Global",expand that one. You will find a property 'i' declared into the object which having value 3.

Conclusion:

1. When you declare a variable using 'var' outside a function ,it becomes global variable(you can check by typing i or window.i in console window.It will return 3).
2. The annominous function you declared will not call and check the value inside the function unless you invoke the functions.
3. When you invoke the function , console.log("My value: " + i) takes the value from its Global object and display the result.

CASE2 : using let

Now replace the 'var' with 'let'

<script>
    var funcs = [];
    for (let i = 0; i < 3; i++) {
        funcs[i] = function () {
           debugger;
           console.log("My value: " + i);
        };
    }
    console.log(funcs);
</script>

Do the same thing, Go to the scopes . Now you will see two objects "Block" and "Global". Now expand Block object , you will see 'i' is defined there , and the strange thing is that , for every functions , the value if i is different (0 , 1, 2).

Conclusion:

When you declare variable using 'let' even outside the function but inside the loop , this variable will not be a Global variable , it will become a Block level variable which is only available for the same function only.That is the reason , we are getting value of i different for each function when we invoke the functions.

For more detail about how closer works , please go through the awesome video tutorial https://youtu.be/71AtaJpJHw0

To do this, I had to come up with an intermediate data structure:

class KeyDataPoint {
    String key;
    DateTime timestamp;
    Number data;
    // obvious constructor and getters
}

With this in place, the approach is to "flatten" each MultiDataPoint into a list of (timestamp, key, data) triples and stream together all such triples from the list of MultiDataPoint.

Then, we apply a groupingBy operation on the string key in order to gather the data for each key together. Note that a simple groupingBy would result in a map from each string key to a list of the corresponding KeyDataPoint triples. We don't want the triples; we want DataPoint instances, which are (timestamp, data) pairs. To do this we apply a "downstream" collector of the groupingBy which is a mapping operation that constructs a new DataPoint by getting the right values from the KeyDataPoint triple. The downstream collector of the mapping operation is simply toList which collects the DataPoint objects of the same group into a list.

Now we have a Map<String, List<DataPoint>> and we want to convert it to a collection of DataSet objects. We simply stream out the map entries and construct DataSet objects, collect them into a list, and return it.

The code ends up looking like this:

Collection<DataSet> convertMultiDataPointToDataSet(List<MultiDataPoint> multiDataPoints) {
    return multiDataPoints.stream()
        .flatMap(mdp -> mdp.getData().entrySet().stream()
                           .map(e -> new KeyDataPoint(e.getKey(), mdp.getTimestamp(), e.getValue())))
        .collect(groupingBy(KeyDataPoint::getKey,
                    mapping(kdp -> new DataPoint(kdp.getTimestamp(), kdp.getData()), toList())))
        .entrySet().stream()
        .map(e -> new DataSet(e.getKey(), e.getValue()))
        .collect(toList());
}

I took some liberties with constructors and getters, but I think they should be obvious.

There is a lot of confusion around lambdas and closures, even in the answers to this StackOverflow question here. Instead of asking random programmers who learned about closures from practice with certain programming languages or other clueless programmers, take a journey to the source (where it all began). And since lambdas and closures come from Lambda Calculus invented by Alonzo Church back in the '30s before first electronic computers even existed, this is the source I'm talking about.

Lambda Calculus is the simplest programming language in the world. The only things you can do in it:?

• APPLICATION: Applying one expression to another, denoted f x.
  (Think of it as a function call, where f is the function and x is its only parameter)
• ABSTRACTION: Binds a symbol occurring in an expression to mark that this symbol is just a "slot", a blank box waiting to be filled with value, a "variable" as it were. It is done by prepending a Greek letter ? (lambda), then the symbolic name (e.g. x), then a dot . before the expression. This then converts the expression into a function expecting one parameter.
  For example: ?x.x+2 takes the expression x+2 and tells that the symbol x in this expression is a bound variable – it can be substituted with a value you supply as a parameter.
  Note that the function defined this way is anonymous – it doesn't have a name, so you can't refer to it yet, but you can immediately call it (remember application?) by supplying it the parameter it is waiting for, like this: (?x.x+2) 7. Then the expression (in this case a literal value) 7 is substituted as x in the subexpression x+2 of the applied lambda, so you get 7+2, which then reduces to 9 by common arithmetics rules.

So we've solved one of the mysteries:
lambda is the anonymous function from the example above, ?x.x+2.

function(x) { return x+2; }

and you can immediately apply it to some parameter like this:

(function(x) { return x+2; })(7)

or you can store this anonymous function (lambda) into some variable:

var f = function(x) { return x+2; }

which effectively gives it a name f, allowing you to refer to it and call it multiple times later, e.g.:

alert(  f(7) + f(10)  );   // should print 21 in the message box

But you didn't have to name it. You could call it immediately:

alert(  function(x) { return x+2; } (7)  );  // should print 9 in the message box

In LISP, lambdas are made like this:

(lambda (x) (+ x 2))

and you can call such a lambda by applying it immediately to a parameter:

(  (lambda (x) (+ x 2))  7  )

As I said, what the lambda abstraction does is binding a symbol in its subexpression, so that it becomes a substitutible parameter. Such a symbol is called bound. But what if there are other symbols in the expression? For example: ?x.x/y+2. In this expression, the symbol x is bound by the lambda abstraction ?x. preceding it. But the other symbol, y, is not bound – it is free. We don't know what it is and where it comes from, so we don't know what it means and what value it represents, and therefore we cannot evaluate that expression until we figure out what y means.

In fact, the same goes with the other two symbols, 2 and +. It's just that we are so familiar with these two symbols that we usually forget that the computer doesn't know them and we need to tell it what they mean by defining them somewhere, e.g. in a library or the language itself.

You can think of the free symbols as defined somewhere else, outside the expression, in its "surrounding context", which is called its environment. The environment might be a bigger expression that this expression is a part of (as Qui-Gon Jinn said: "There's always a bigger fish" ;) ), or in some library, or in the language itself (as a primitive).

This lets us divide lambda expressions into two categories:

• CLOSED expressions: every symbol that occurs in these expressions is bound by some lambda abstraction. In other words, they are self-contained; they don't require any surrounding context to be evaluated. They are also called combinators.
• OPEN expressions: some symbols in these expressions are not bound – that is, some of the symbols occurring in them are free and they require some external information, and thus they cannot be evaluated until you supply the definitions of these symbols.

You can CLOSE an open lambda expression by supplying the environment, which defines all these free symbols by binding them to some values (which may be numbers, strings, anonymous functions aka lambdas, whatever…).

And here comes the closure part:
The closure of a lambda expression is this particular set of symbols defined in the outer context (environment) that give values to the free symbols in this expression, making them non-free anymore. It turns an open lambda expression, which still contains some "undefined" free symbols, into a closed one, which doesn't have any free symbols anymore.

For example, if you have the following lambda expression: ?x.x/y+2, the symbol x is bound, while the symbol y is free, therefore the expression is open and cannot be evaluated unless you say what y means (and the same with + and 2, which are also free). But suppose that you also have an environment like this:

{  y: 3,
+: [built-in addition],
2: [built-in number],
q: 42,
w: 5  }

This environment supplies definitions for all the "undefined" (free) symbols from our lambda expression (y, +, 2), and several extra symbols (q, w). The symbols that we need to be defined are this subset of the environment:

{  y: 3,
+: [built-in addition],
2: [built-in number]  }

and this is precisely the closure of our lambda expression :>

In other words, it closes an open lambda expression. This is where the name closure came from in the first place, and this is why so many people's answers in this thread are not quite correct :P

Well, the corporate marketoids of Sun/Oracle, Microsoft, Google etc. are to blame, because that's what they called these constructs in their languages (Java, C#, Go etc.). They often call "closures" what are supposed to be just lambdas. Or they call "closures" a particular technique they used to implement lexical scoping, that is, the fact that a function can access the variables that were defined in its outer scope at the time of its definition. They often say that the function "encloses" these variables, that is, captures them into some data structure to save them from being destroyed after the outer function finishes executing. But this is just made-up post factum "folklore etymology" and marketing, which only makes things more confusing, because every language vendor uses its own terminology.

And it's even worse because of the fact that there's always a bit of truth in what they say, which does not allow you to easily dismiss it as false :P Let me explain:

If you want to implement a language that uses lambdas as first-class citizens, you need to allow them to use symbols defined in their surrounding context (that is, to use free variables in your lambdas). And these symbols must be there even when the surrounding function returns. The problem is that these symbols are bound to some local storage of the function (usually on the call stack), which won't be there anymore when the function returns. Therefore, in order for a lambda to work the way you expect, you need to somehow "capture" all these free variables from its outer context and save them for later, even when the outer context will be gone. That is, you need to find the closure of your lambda (all these external variables it uses) and store it somewhere else (either by making a copy, or by preparing space for them upfront, somewhere else than on the stack). The actual method you use to achieve this goal is an "implementation detail" of your language. What's important here is the closure, which is the set of free variables from the environment of your lambda that need to be saved somewhere.

It didn't took too long for people to start calling the actual data structure they use in their language's implementations to implement closure as the "closure" itself. The structure usually looks something like this:

Closure {
   [pointer to the lambda function's machine code],
   [pointer to the lambda function's environment]
}

and these data structures are being passed around as parameters to other functions, returned from functions, and stored in variables, to represent lambdas, and allowing them to access their enclosing environment as well as the machine code to run in that context. But it's just a way (one of many) to implement closure, not the closure itself.

As I explained above, the closure of a lambda expression is the subset of definitions in its environment that give values to the free variables contained in that lambda expression, effectively closing the expression (turning an open lambda expression, which cannot be evaluated yet, into a closed lambda expression, which can then be evaluated, since all the symbols contained in it are now defined).

Anything else is just a "cargo cult" and "voo-doo magic" of programmers and language vendors unaware of the real roots of these notions.

I hope that answers your questions. But if you had any follow-up questions, feel free to ask them in the comments, and I'll try to explain it better.

Here I have one simple example of the closure concept which we can use for in our E-commerce site or many others as well.

I am adding my JSFiddle link with the example. It contains a small product list of three items and one cart counter.

JSFiddle

// Counter closure implemented function;
var CartCouter = function(){
  var counter = 0;

  function changeCounter(val){
      counter += val
  }

  return {
      increment: function(){
        changeCounter(1);
    },
    decrement: function(){
      changeCounter(-1);
    },
    value: function(){
      return counter;
    }
  }
}

var cartCount = CartCouter();

function updateCart() {
  document.getElementById('cartcount').innerHTML = cartCount.value();
}

var productlist = document.getElementsByClassName('item');
for(var i = 0; i< productlist.length; i++){
  productlist[i].addEventListener('click', function(){
    if(this.className.indexOf('selected') < 0){
      this.className += " selected";
      cartCount.increment();
      updateCart();
    }
    else{
      this.className = this.className.replace("selected", "");
      cartCount.decrement();
      updateCart();
    }
  })
}

.productslist{
  padding: 10px;
}
ul li{
  display: inline-block;
  padding: 5px;
  border: 1px solid #DDD;
  text-align: center;
  width: 25%;
  cursor: pointer;
}
.selected{
  background-color: #7CFEF0;
  color: #333;
}
.cartdiv{
  position: relative;
  float: right;
  padding: 5px;
  box-sizing: border-box;
  border: 1px solid #F1F1F1;
}

<div>
    <h3>
        Practical use of a JavaScript closure concept/private variable.
    </h3>

    <div class="cartdiv">
        <span id="cartcount">0</span>
    </div>

    <div class="productslist">
        <ul>
            <li class="item">Product 1</li>
            <li class="item">Product 2</li>
            <li class="item">Product 3</li>
        </ul>
    </div>
</div>

You can think like this. Into the <body></body> place a tag <p id='staticVariable'></p> and set its visibility: hide.

Of course you can manage the text inside the previous tag by using jquery. Pratically this tag become your static variable.

asec=1000; 

setTimeout('some_3secs_function("somevalue")',asec*3);
setTimeout('some_5secs_function("somevalue")',asec*5);
setTimeout('some_8secs_function("somevalue")',asec*8);

I won't go into a deep discussion of setTimeout here, but:

• in this case I've added the code to execute as a string. this is the simplest way to pass a var into your setTimeout-ed function, but purists will complain.
• you can also pass a function name without quotes, but no variable can be passed.
• your code does not wait for setTimeout to trigger.
• This one can be hard to get your head around at first: because of the previous point, if you pass a variable from your calling function, that variable will not exist anymore by the time the timeout triggers - the calling function will have executed and it's vars gone.
• I have been known to use anonymous functions to get around all this, but there could well be a better way,

Direct Closure serialisation is not allowed by PHP. But you can use powefull class like PHP Super Closure : https://github.com/jeremeamia/super_closure

This class is really simple to use and is bundled into the laravel framework for the queue manager.

From the github documentation :

$helloWorld = new SerializableClosure(function ($name = 'World') use ($greeting) {
    echo "{$greeting}, {$name}!\n";
});

$serialized = serialize($helloWorld);

Not sure if I get you right, but the simplest way would be something like:

<c:if test="${languageBean.locale == 'en'">
  <f:selectItems value="#{customerBean.selectableCommands_limited_en}" />
</c:if>

Just a quick copy and paste from an app of mine...

HTH

Simple solution would be to remove padding from .panel-heading and add to .panel-title a.

.panel-heading {
    padding: 0;
}
.panel-title a {
    display: block;
    padding: 10px 15px;
}

This solution is similar to the above one posted by calfzhou, slightly different.

To avoid using scriplets in the jsp, follow the advice of "divideByZero", and use ${pageContext.request.requestURI} This is a better way to go.

    SqlConnectionStringBuilder builder = new SqlConnectionStringBuilder();
        builder.DataSource = <sql server name>;
        builder.UserID = <user id>; //User id used to login into SQL
        builder.Password = <password>; //password used to login into SQL
        builder.InitialCatalog = <database name>; //Name of Database

        DataTable orderTable = new DataTable();

        //<sp name> stored procedute name which you want to exceute
        using (var con = new SqlConnection(builder.ConnectionString))
        using (SqlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand(<sp name>, con)) 
        using (var da = new SqlDataAdapter(cmd))
        {
            cmd.CommandType = System.Data.CommandType.StoredProcedure;
            //Data adapter(da) fills the data retuned from stored procedure 
           //into orderTable
            da.Fill(orderTable);
        }

Alternatively, you could differentiate using BuildConfig.BUILD_TYPE;

If you're running debug build BuildConfig.BUILD_TYPE.equals("debug"); returns true. And for release build BuildConfig.BUILD_TYPE.equals("release"); returns true.

Webpack and Browserify

Webpack and Browserify do pretty much the same job, which is processing your code to be used in a target environment (mainly browser, though you can target other environments like Node). Result of such processing is one or more bundles - assembled scripts suitable for targeted environment.

For example, let's say you wrote ES6 code divided into modules and want to be able to run it in a browser. If those modules are Node modules, the browser won't understand them since they exist only in the Node environment. ES6 modules also won't work in older browsers like IE11. Moreover, you might have used experimental language features (ES next proposals) that browsers don't implement yet so running such script would just throw errors. Tools like Webpack and Browserify solve these problems by translating such code to a form a browser is able to execute. On top of that, they make it possible to apply a huge variety of optimisations on those bundles.

However, Webpack and Browserify differ in many ways, Webpack offers many tools by default (e.g. code splitting), while Browserify can do this only after downloading plugins but using both leads to very similar results. It comes down to personal preference (Webpack is trendier). Btw, Webpack is not a task runner, it is just processor of your files (it processes them by so called loaders and plugins) and it can be run (among other ways) by a task runner.

Webpack Dev Server

Webpack Dev Server provides a similar solution to Browsersync - a development server where you can deploy your app rapidly as you are working on it, and verify your development progress immediately, with the dev server automatically refreshing the browser on code changes or even propagating changed code to browser without reloading with so called hot module replacement.

Task runners vs NPM scripts

I've been using Gulp for its conciseness and easy task writing, but have later found out I need neither Gulp nor Grunt at all. Everything I have ever needed could have been done using NPM scripts to run 3rd-party tools through their API. Choosing between Gulp, Grunt or NPM scripts depends on taste and experience of your team.

While tasks in Gulp or Grunt are easy to read even for people not so familiar with JS, it is yet another tool to require and learn and I personally prefer to narrow my dependencies and make things simple. On the other hand, replacing these tasks with the combination of NPM scripts and (propably JS) scripts which run those 3rd party tools (eg. Node script configuring and running rimraf for cleaning purposes) might be more challenging. But in the majority of cases, those three are equal in terms of their results.

Examples

As for the examples, I suggest you have a look at this React starter project, which shows you a nice combination of NPM and JS scripts covering the whole build and deploy process. You can find those NPM scripts in package.json in the root folder, in a property named scripts. There you will mostly encounter commands like babel-node tools/run start. Babel-node is a CLI tool (not meant for production use), which at first compiles ES6 file tools/run (run.js file located in tools) - basically a runner utility. This runner takes a function as an argument and executes it, which in this case is start - another utility (start.js) responsible for bundling source files (both client and server) and starting the application and development server (the dev server will be probably either Webpack Dev Server or Browsersync).

Speaking more precisely, start.js creates both client and server side bundles, starts an express server and after a successful launch initializes Browser-sync, which at the time of writing looked like this (please refer to react starter project for the newest code).

const bs = Browsersync.create();  
bs.init({
      ...(DEBUG ? {} : { notify: false, ui: false }),

      proxy: {
        target: host,
        middleware: [wpMiddleware, ...hotMiddlewares],
      },

      // no need to watch '*.js' here, webpack will take care of it for us,
      // including full page reloads if HMR won't work
      files: ['build/content/**/*.*'],
}, resolve)

The important part is proxy.target, where they set server address they want to proxy, which could be http://localhost:3000, and Browsersync starts a server listening on http://localhost:3001, where the generated assets are served with automatic change detection and hot module replacement. As you can see, there is another configuration property files with individual files or patterns Browser-sync watches for changes and reloads the browser if some occur, but as the comment says, Webpack takes care of watching js sources by itself with HMR, so they cooperate there.

Now I don't have any equivalent example of such Grunt or Gulp configuration, but with Gulp (and somewhat similarly with Grunt) you would write individual tasks in gulpfile.js like

gulp.task('bundle', function() {
  // bundling source files with some gulp plugins like gulp-webpack maybe
});

gulp.task('start', function() {
  // starting server and stuff
});

where you would be doing essentially pretty much the same things as in the starter-kit, this time with task runner, which solves some problems for you, but presents its own issues and some difficulties during learning the usage, and as I say, the more dependencies you have, the more can go wrong. And that is the reason I like to get rid of such tools.

I did something similar but I use binding to get the selected item :

<DataGrid Grid.Row="1" AutoGenerateColumns="False" Name="dataGrid"
          IsReadOnly="True" SelectionMode="Single"
          ItemsSource="{Binding ObservableContactList}" 
          SelectedItem="{Binding SelectedContact}">
  <DataGrid.Columns>
    <DataGridTextColumn Binding="{Binding Path=Name}" Header="Name"/>
    <DataGridTextColumn Binding="{Binding Path=FamilyName}" Header="FamilyName"/>
    <DataGridTextColumn Binding="{Binding Path=Age}" Header="Age"/>
    <DataGridTextColumn Binding="{Binding Path=Relation}" Header="Relation"/>
    <DataGridTextColumn Binding="{Binding Path=Phone.Display}" Header="Phone"/>
    <DataGridTextColumn Binding="{Binding Path=Address.Display}" Header="Addr"/>
    <DataGridTextColumn Binding="{Binding Path=Mail}" Header="E-mail"/>
  </DataGrid.Columns>
</DataGrid>

So I can access my SelectedContact.Name in my ViewModel.

In PHP there is a pretty good function utf8_encode() to solve this issue.

echo utf8_encode("Résumé");

//will output Résumé instead of R?sum?

Check the official PHP page.

Sorry EMS, but I actually just got another response from the matplotlib mailling list (Thanks goes out to Benjamin Root).

The code I am looking for is adjusting the savefig call to:

fig.savefig('samplefigure', bbox_extra_artists=(lgd,), bbox_inches='tight')
#Note that the bbox_extra_artists must be an iterable

This is apparently similar to calling tight_layout, but instead you allow savefig to consider extra artists in the calculation. This did in fact resize the figure box as desired.

import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import numpy as np

plt.gcf().clear()
x = np.arange(-2*np.pi, 2*np.pi, 0.1)
fig = plt.figure(1)
ax = fig.add_subplot(111)
ax.plot(x, np.sin(x), label='Sine')
ax.plot(x, np.cos(x), label='Cosine')
ax.plot(x, np.arctan(x), label='Inverse tan')
handles, labels = ax.get_legend_handles_labels()
lgd = ax.legend(handles, labels, loc='upper center', bbox_to_anchor=(0.5,-0.1))
text = ax.text(-0.2,1.05, "Aribitrary text", transform=ax.transAxes)
ax.set_title("Trigonometry")
ax.grid('on')
fig.savefig('samplefigure', bbox_extra_artists=(lgd,text), bbox_inches='tight')

This produces:

[edit] The intent of this question was to completely avoid the use of arbitrary coordinate placements of arbitrary text as was the traditional solution to these problems. Despite this, numerous edits recently have insisted on putting these in, often in ways that led to the code raising an error. I have now fixed the issues and tidied the arbitrary text to show how these are also considered within the bbox_extra_artists algorithm.

Error in file(file, "rt")

Created a .r file and saved it in Desktop together with a sample_10000.csv file.

Once trying to read it

heisenberg <- read.csv(file="sample_100000.csv")

was getting the same error as you

heisenberg <- read.csv(file="sample_10000") Error in file(file, "rt") : cannot open the connection In addition: Warning message: In file(file, "rt") : cannot open file 'sample_10000': No such file or directory

I knew at least two ways to fix this, one using the absolute path and the other changing the working directory.

Absolute path

I fixed it adding the absolute path to the file, more precisely

heisenberg <- read.csv(file="C:/Users/tiago/Desktop/sample_100000.csv")

Working directory

This error shows up because RStudio has a specific working directory defined which isn't necessarily the place the .r file is at.

So, to fix using this approach I've gone to Session > Set Working Directory > Chose Directory (CTRL + Shift + H) and selected Desktop, where the .csv file was at. That way running the following command also worked

heisenberg <- read.csv(file="sample_100000.csv")

To group data according to DATE instead of DATETIME, you can use CAST function.

$visitorTraffic = PageView::select('id', 'title', 'created_at')
->get()
->groupBy(DB::raw('CAST(created_at AS DATE)'));

function file_get_ext(filename)
    {
    return typeof filename != "undefined" ? filename.substring(filename.lastIndexOf(".")+1, filename.length).toLowerCase() : false;
    }

Comparable:
Whenever we want to store only homogeneous elements and default natural sorting order required, we can go for class implementing comparable interface.

Comparator:
Whenever we want to store homogeneous and heterogeneous elements and we want to sort in default customized sorting order, we can go for comparator interface.

Sort of. As Bobby says:

svn co file:///.../trunk/foo file:///.../trunk/bar file:///.../trunk/hum

will get the folders, but you will get separate folders from a subversion perspective. You will have to go separate commits and updates on each subfolder.

I don't believe you can checkout a partial tree and then work with the partial tree as a single entity.

The settings you need are "Local echo" and "Line editing" under the "Terminal" category on the left.

To get the characters to display on the screen as you enter them, set "Local echo" to "Force on".

To get the terminal to not send the command until you press Enter, set "Local line editing" to "Force on".

Explanation:

From the PuTTY User Manual (Found by clicking on the "Help" button in PuTTY):

4.3.8 ‘Local echo’

With local echo disabled, characters you type into the PuTTY window are not echoed in the window by PuTTY. They are simply sent to the server. (The server might choose to echo them back to you; this can't be controlled from the PuTTY control panel.)

Some types of session need local echo, and many do not. In its default mode, PuTTY will automatically attempt to deduce whether or not local echo is appropriate for the session you are working in. If you find it has made the wrong decision, you can use this configuration option to override its choice: you can force local echo to be turned on, or force it to be turned off, instead of relying on the automatic detection.

4.3.9 ‘Local line editing’ Normally, every character you type into the PuTTY window is sent immediately to the server the moment you type it.

If you enable local line editing, this changes. PuTTY will let you edit a whole line at a time locally, and the line will only be sent to the server when you press Return. If you make a mistake, you can use the Backspace key to correct it before you press Return, and the server will never see the mistake.

Since it is hard to edit a line locally without being able to see it, local line editing is mostly used in conjunction with local echo (section 4.3.8). This makes it ideal for use in raw mode or when connecting to MUDs or talkers. (Although some more advanced MUDs do occasionally turn local line editing on and turn local echo off, in order to accept a password from the user.)

Some types of session need local line editing, and many do not. In its default mode, PuTTY will automatically attempt to deduce whether or not local line editing is appropriate for the session you are working in. If you find it has made the wrong decision, you can use this configuration option to override its choice: you can force local line editing to be turned on, or force it to be turned off, instead of relying on the automatic detection.

Putty sometimes makes wrong choices when "Auto" is enabled for these options because it tries to detect the connection configuration. Applied to serial line, this is a bit trickier to do.

This seems to be the best solution I’ve found to this problem, as long as your browser supports the ::before pseudo element: CSS-Tricks: Centering in the Unknown.

It doesn’t require any extra markup and seems to work extremely well. I couldn’t use the display: table method because table elements don’t obey the max-height property.

Get items when the date is between fromdate and toDate.

where convert(date, fromdate, 103 ) <= '2016-07-26' and convert(date, toDate, 103) >= '2016-07-26'

Here's a suggestion: use two indices into the string, say start and end. start points to the first character of the next string to extract, end points to the character after the last one belonging to the next string to extract. start starts at zero, end gets the position of the first char after start. Then you take the string between [start..end) and add that to your array. You keep going until you hit the end of the string.

There are a few base64 encoders online to help you with this, this is probably the best I've seen:

http://www.greywyvern.com/code/php/binary2base64

As that page shows your main options for this are CSS:

div.image {
  width:100px;
  height:100px;
  background-image:url(data:image/png;base64,iVBORwA<MoreBase64SringHere>); 
}

Or the <img> tag itself, like this:

<img alt="My Image" src="data:image/png;base64,iVBORwA<MoreBase64SringHere>" />

You can use VBA to export an Access database table as a Worksheet in an Excel Workbook.

To obtain the path of the Access database, use the CurrentProject.Path property.

To name the Excel Workbook file with the current date, use the Format(Date, "yyyyMMdd") method.

Finally, to export the table as a Worksheet, use the DoCmd.TransferSpreadsheet method.

Example:

Dim outputFileName As String
outputFileName = CurrentProject.Path & "\Export_" & Format(Date, "yyyyMMdd") & ".xls"
DoCmd.TransferSpreadsheet acExport, acSpreadsheetTypeExcel9, "Table1", outputFileName , True
DoCmd.TransferSpreadsheet acExport, acSpreadsheetTypeExcel9, "Table2", outputFileName , True

This will output both Table1 and Table2 into the same Workbook.

HTH

Like Yuck's answer with a check to allow the script to be ran more than once without error. (less code/custom strings than using information_schema.columns)

IF object_id('DF_SomeName', 'D') IS NULL BEGIN
    Print 'Creating Constraint DF_SomeName'
   ALTER TABLE Employee ADD CONSTRAINT DF_SomeName DEFAULT N'SANDNES' FOR CityBorn;
END

The following does not plot anything in the plot and it will remain empty.

plot(NULL, xlim=c(0,1), ylim=c(0,1), ylab="y label", xlab="x lablel")

This is useful when you want to add lines or dots afterwards within a for loop or something similar. Just remember to change the xlim and ylim values based on the data you want to plot.

As a side note: This can also be used for Boxplot, Violin plots and swarm plots. for those remember to add add = TRUE to their plotting function and also specify at = to specify on which number you want to plot them (default is x axis unless you have set horz = TRUE in these functions.

Move semantics is about transferring resources rather than copying them when nobody needs the source value anymore.

In C++03, objects are often copied, only to be destroyed or assigned-over before any code uses the value again. For example, when you return by value from a function—unless RVO kicks in—the value you're returning is copied to the caller's stack frame, and then it goes out of scope and is destroyed. This is just one of many examples: see pass-by-value when the source object is a temporary, algorithms like sort that just rearrange items, reallocation in vector when its capacity() is exceeded, etc.

When such copy/destroy pairs are expensive, it's typically because the object owns some heavyweight resource. For example, vector<string> may own a dynamically-allocated memory block containing an array of string objects, each with its own dynamic memory. Copying such an object is costly: you have to allocate new memory for each dynamically-allocated blocks in the source, and copy all the values across. Then you need deallocate all that memory you just copied. However, moving a large vector<string> means just copying a few pointers (that refer to the dynamic memory block) to the destination and zeroing them out in the source.

Capturing lambdas cannot be converted to function pointers, as this answer pointed out.

However, it is often quite a pain to supply a function pointer to an API that only accepts one. The most often cited method to do so is to provide a function and call a static object with it.

static Callable callable;
static bool wrapper()
{
    return callable();
}

This is tedious. We take this idea further and automate the process of creating wrapper and make life much easier.

#include<type_traits>
#include<utility>

template<typename Callable>
union storage
{
    storage() {}
    std::decay_t<Callable> callable;
};

template<int, typename Callable, typename Ret, typename... Args>
auto fnptr_(Callable&& c, Ret (*)(Args...))
{
    static bool used = false;
    static storage<Callable> s;
    using type = decltype(s.callable);

    if(used)
        s.callable.~type();
    new (&s.callable) type(std::forward<Callable>(c));
    used = true;

    return [](Args... args) -> Ret {
        return Ret(s.callable(std::forward<Args>(args)...));
    };
}

template<typename Fn, int N = 0, typename Callable>
Fn* fnptr(Callable&& c)
{
    return fnptr_<N>(std::forward<Callable>(c), (Fn*)nullptr);
}

And use it as

void foo(void (*fn)())
{
    fn();   
}

int main()
{
    int i = 42;
    auto fn = fnptr<void()>([i]{std::cout << i;});
    foo(fn);  // compiles!
}

Live

This is essentially declaring an anonymous function at each occurrence of fnptr.

Note that invocations of fnptr overwrite the previously written callable given callables of the same type. We remedy this, to a certain degree, with the int parameter N.

std::function<void()> func1, func2;
auto fn1 = fnptr<void(), 1>(func1);
auto fn2 = fnptr<void(), 2>(func2);  // different function

By adding a callback argument, you are telling jQuery that you want to make a request for JSONP using a script element instead of a request for JSON using XMLHttpRequest.

JSONP is not JSON. It is a JavaScript program.

Change your server so it outputs the right MIME type for JSONP which is application/javascript.

(While you are at it, stop telling jQuery that you are expecting JSON as that is contradictory: dataType: 'jsonp').

Got this same error recently in a python app using requests on ubuntu 14.04LTS, that I thought had been running fine (maybe it was and some update occurred). Doing the steps below fixed it for me:

pip install --upgrade setuptools
pip install -U requests[security]

NOTE, SOME OF THE ABOVE ANSWERS ARE MASSIVELY OUT-OF-DATE! THIS CAN BE DONE AND ALL WITHIN SQL SERVER MANAGEMENT STUDIO (SQL MS)

There are numerous methods you can adopt to "downgrade" a database, but one I have found recently and that I believe was not found in early releases of SQL MS 2012, is the Copy Database Wizard. Here is how you can copy a database from a 2012 server instance to a 2008 R2 instance:

1. In the 2012 instance, right click on the database you want to copy/"downgrade" and select "Tasks" > "Copy Database...".

2. "Welcome to the Copy Database Wizard" click [Next].

3. "Select a Source Server": Set the "Source server" as the 2012 instance (or the higher version server instance), and set the appropriate authentication. click [Next]. [Note. the Server Agent services must be running]

4. "Select a Destination Server:" Set the "Destination server" as the 2008 R2 (or lower version instance), and set the appropriate authentication. click [Next]. [Note. the Server Agent services must be running]

5. "Select the Transfer Method" For the sake of this example, select "Use the SQL Management Object method", click [Next].

6. Select to move or copy the required databases, click [Next].

7. Configure the destination database path and logical names etc. Select the required option for if the database exists. Click [Next].

8. Configure the integration services package, click [Next].

9. For this example, select the "Run Immediately" option for "Schedule the Package" options, click [Next].

10. "Complete the Wizard", click [Finish] to execute the package and create the "downgraded" database.

You are done, happy days. :]

Another method I found was the SQL Database Migration Wizard which was created by Microsoft and which I think (I don't know) that the wizard above was created from. Get it here http://sqlazuremw.codeplex.com/. To use this package to migrate a databases from SQL Server 20012 to 2008 R2, you can do the following:

Note. Microsoft have now removed SQLAzureMW from Codeplex. I have personally made it available here

1. Run SQLAzureMW.exe.

2. Select the Analyse/Migrate radio button from the right hand side of the main window.

3. Select the Target Server as “SQL Database latest service version (V12)”. Click [Next].

4. Connect to the SQL Server 2012 instance. Server name for my machine is “VAIOE\SQLSERVER2012”, use Windows authentication, select “Master DB (list all databases)” from the database options and “Save Login Information”. Click [Connect].

5. Select the required database to migrate [use GVH Report database for now]. Click [Next].

6. Select “Script all database objects”.

7. Click [Advance] and change the following options:

a. Under General set “Target Server” to “SQL Server”.

b. Under “Table/View Options” set “Script Table / Data” to “Table Schema with Data”. Set “Database Engine Stored Procedures” to “True”. Set “Security Functions”, “Security Stored Procedures” and “System Functions” to “True”.

Click [OK]. Click [Next].

8. Review your selections. Click [Next].

9. You will be prompted “Ready to Generate Script?”, click [Yes]. This will start the script generation. Once this is done, click [Next].

10. Now you will get another connection dialog. This time select the database on the target server (the SQL Server 2008 R2 instance). Select Master database so you get a choice of target DB. Click [Connect].

11. Now, it is likely that you want to migrate into a new database, so click [Create Database].

12. Enter a database target name and leave the “Collation” as the “”, this does not concern us. Click [Create Database]. Click [Next].

13. You will now be prompted “Execute script against destination server?”, click [Yes].

14. This will now go off and do loads of stuff, setting up the schema using the generated script, but unlike the previous method we found, the data is bulk loaded using BCP, which is blazingly fast. All of this is also done internally, so no generation of massive .sql script files etc.

15. Click [Exit].

You are done. Now if you open up Management Studio and connect to both the SQL Server 2012 and 2008 R2 instances we have just worked with you can see that the schema for the 2012 source database matches the target database which was just created.

The two processes above are almost identical and provide the same functionality. I would not perform the latter unless you specifically need to migrate to Azure or method 1 fails for you.

I hope this helps someone out.

You can also use:

{{ word|striptags('<b>')|raw }}

so that only <b> tag will be allowed.

There is no button type="cancel" in html. You can try like this

<a href="http://www.url.com/yourpage.php">Cancel</a>

You can make it look like a button by using CSS style properties.

Add a CSS class to the <option> tag to style it: http://jsfiddle.net/Ahreu/

Currently WebKit browsers don't support this behavior, as it's undefined by the spec. Take a look at this: How to style a select tag's option element?

Recently, I had the same problem within .NET 3.5 (no dynamic available). Here is how I solved:

// pass anonymous object as argument
var args = new { Title = "Find", Type = typeof(FindCondition) };

using (frmFind f = new frmFind(args)) 
{
...
...
}

Adapted from somewhere on stackoverflow:

// Use a custom cast extension
public static T CastTo<T>(this Object x, T targetType)
{
   return (T)x;
}

Now get back the object via cast:

public partial class frmFind: Form
{
    public frmFind(object arguments)
    {

        InitializeComponent();

        var args = arguments.CastTo(new { Title = "", Type = typeof(Nullable) });

        this.Text = args.Title;

        ...
    }
    ...
}

Unless you redirect stdout and stderr as the accepted answer suggests, this is not possible with execSync or spawnSync. Without redirecting stdout and stderr those commands only return stdout and stderr when the command is completed.

To do this without redirecting stdout and stderr, you are going to need to use spawn to do this but it's pretty straight forward:

var spawn = require('child_process').spawn;

//kick off process of listing files
var child = spawn('ls', ['-l', '/']);

//spit stdout to screen
child.stdout.on('data', function (data) {   process.stdout.write(data.toString());  });

//spit stderr to screen
child.stderr.on('data', function (data) {   process.stdout.write(data.toString());  });

child.on('close', function (code) { 
    console.log("Finished with code " + code);
});

I used an ls command that recursively lists files so that you can test it quickly. Spawn takes as first argument the executable name you are trying to run and as it's second argument it takes an array of strings representing each parameter you want to pass to that executable.

However, if you are set on using execSync and can't redirect stdout or stderr for some reason, you can open up another terminal like xterm and pass it a command like so:

var execSync = require('child_process').execSync;

execSync("xterm -title RecursiveFileListing -e ls -latkR /");

This will allow you to see what your command is doing in the new terminal but still have the synchronous call.

You can do this in Bash (e.g. Linux or WSL):

ping 10.0.0.1 | while read line; do echo `date` - $line; done

Although it doesn't give the statistics you usually get when you hit ^C at the end.

I want to explain the error with an example below:

> names(lenses)
[1] "X1..1..1..1..1..3"

names(lenses)=c("ID","Age","Sight","Astigmatism","Tear","Class") Error in names(lenses) = c("ID", "Age", "Sight", "Astigmatism", "Tear", : 'names' attribute [6] must be the same length as the vector [1]

The error happened because of mismatch in a number of attributes. I only have one but trying to add 6 names. In this case, the error happens. See below the correct one:::::>>>>

> names(lenses)=c("ID")
> names(lenses)

[1] "ID"

Now there was no error.

I hope this will help!

<body onload="window.print()"> or window.onload = function() { window.print(); }

setState(updater, callback) for useState

Following implementation comes really close to the original setState callback from classes.

Additions made to Robin's solution:

1. Callback execution is omitted on initial render (we want to call it only on state updates)
2. Callback can be dynamic for each setState invocation, like with classes

Usage

const App = () => {
  const [state, setState] = useStateCallback(0); // same API as useState + setState with cb

  const handleClick = () => {
    setState(
      prev => prev + 1,
      // 2nd argument is callback , `s` is *updated* state
      s => console.log("I am called after setState, state:", s)
    );
  };

  return <button onClick={handleClick}>Increment</button>;
}

useStateCallback

function useStateCallback(initialState) {
  const [state, setState] = useState(initialState);
  const cbRef = useRef(null); // mutable ref to store current callback

  const setStateCallback = useCallback((state, cb) => {
    cbRef.current = cb; // store passed callback to ref
    setState(state);
  }, []);

  useEffect(() => {
    // cb.current is `null` on initial render, so we only execute cb on state *updates*
    if (cbRef.current) {
      cbRef.current(state);
      cbRef.current = null; // reset callback after execution
    }
  }, [state]);

  return [state, setStateCallback];
}

Further info: React Hooks FAQ: Is there something like instance variables?

Working example

const App = () => {
  const [state, setState] = useStateCallback(0);

  const handleClick = () =>
    setState(
      prev => prev + 1,
      // important: use `s`, not the stale/old closure value `state`
      s => console.log("I am called after setState, state:", s)
    );

  return (
    <div>
      <p>Hello Comp. State: {state} </p>
      <button onClick={handleClick}>Click me</button>
    </div>
  );
}

function useStateCallback(initialState) {
  const [state, setState] = useState(initialState);
  const cbRef = useRef(null);

  const setStateCallback = useCallback((state, cb) => {
    cbRef.current = cb; 
    setState(state);
  }, []);

  useEffect(() => {
    if (cbRef.current) {
      cbRef.current(state);
      cbRef.current = null;
    }
  }, [state]);

  return [state, setStateCallback];
}

I had the same problem. Adding new rows to WPF DataGrid requires a trick. DataGrid relies on property fields of an item object. ExpandoObject enables to add new properties dynamically. The code below explains how to do it:

// using System.Dynamic;

DataGrid dataGrid;

string[] labels = new string[] { "Column 0", "Column 1", "Column 2" };

foreach (string label in labels)
{
    DataGridTextColumn column = new DataGridTextColumn();
    column.Header = label;
    column.Binding = new Binding(label.Replace(' ', '_'));

    dataGrid.Columns.Add(column);
}

int[] values = new int[] { 0, 1, 2 };

dynamic row = new ExpandoObject();

for (int i = 0; i < labels.Length; i++)
    ((IDictionary<String, Object>)row)[labels[i].Replace(' ', '_')] = values[i];

dataGrid.Items.Add(row);

//edit:

Note that this is not the way how the component should be used, however, it simplifies a lot if you have only programmatically generated data (eg. in my case: a sequence of features and neural network output).

If we want difference without the time you can get the date different (only date without time) like below, using moment's format.

As, I was facing issue with the difference while doing ;

moment().diff([YOUR DATE])

So, came up with following;

const dateValidate = moment(moment().format('YYYY-MM-DD')).diff(moment([YOUR SELECTED DATE HERE]).format('YYYY-MM-DD'))

IF dateValidate > 0 
   //it's past day
else
   //it's current or future

Please feel free to comment if there's anything to improve on.

Thanks,

In TypeScript 3.7 we have now Optional chaining and Nullish Coalescing to check null and undefined in the same time, example:

let x = foo?.bar.baz();

this code will check if foo is defined otherwise it will return undefined

old way :

if(foo != null && foo != undefined) {
   x = foo.bar.baz();
} 

this:

let x = (foo === null || foo === undefined) ? undefined : foo.bar();

if (foo && foo.bar && foo.bar.baz) { // ... }

With optional chaining will be:

let x = foo?.bar();

if (foo?.bar?.baz) { // ... }

another new feature is Nullish Coalescing, example:

let x = foo ?? bar(); // return foo if it's not null or undefined otherwise calculate bar

old way:

let x = (foo !== null && foo !== undefined) ?
foo :
bar();

BONUS

It seems rather wasteful to me to run through the array and encode the objects into NSData yourself. Your error BC_Person is a non-property-list object is telling you that the framework doesn't know how to serialize your person object.

So all that is needed is to ensure that your person object conforms to NSCoding then you can simply convert your array of custom objects into NSData and store that to defaults. Heres a playground:

Edit: Writing to NSUserDefaults is broken on Xcode 7 so the playground will archive to data and back and print an output. The UserDefaults step is included in case its fixed at a later point

//: Playground - noun: a place where people can play

import Foundation

class Person: NSObject, NSCoding {
    let surname: String
    let firstname: String

    required init(firstname:String, surname:String) {
        self.firstname = firstname
        self.surname = surname
        super.init()
    }

    //MARK: - NSCoding -
    required init(coder aDecoder: NSCoder) {
        surname = aDecoder.decodeObjectForKey("surname") as! String
        firstname = aDecoder.decodeObjectForKey("firstname") as! String
    }

    func encodeWithCoder(aCoder: NSCoder) {
        aCoder.encodeObject(firstname, forKey: "firstname")
        aCoder.encodeObject(surname, forKey: "surname")
    }
}

//: ### Now lets define a function to convert our array to NSData

func archivePeople(people:[Person]) -> NSData {
    let archivedObject = NSKeyedArchiver.archivedDataWithRootObject(people as NSArray)
    return archivedObject
}

//: ### Create some people

let people = [Person(firstname: "johnny", surname:"appleseed"),Person(firstname: "peter", surname: "mill")]

//: ### Archive our people to NSData

let peopleData = archivePeople(people)

if let unarchivedPeople = NSKeyedUnarchiver.unarchiveObjectWithData(peopleData) as? [Person] {
    for person in unarchivedPeople {
        print("\(person.firstname), you have been unarchived")
    }
} else {
    print("Failed to unarchive people")
}

//: ### Lets try use NSUserDefaults
let UserDefaultsPeopleKey = "peoplekey"
func savePeople(people:[Person]) {
    let archivedObject = archivePeople(people)
    let defaults = NSUserDefaults.standardUserDefaults()
    defaults.setObject(archivedObject, forKey: UserDefaultsPeopleKey)
    defaults.synchronize()
}

func retrievePeople() -> [Person]? {
    if let unarchivedObject = NSUserDefaults.standardUserDefaults().objectForKey(UserDefaultsPeopleKey) as? NSData {
        return NSKeyedUnarchiver.unarchiveObjectWithData(unarchivedObject) as? [Person]
    }
    return nil
}

if let retrievedPeople = retrievePeople() {
    for person in retrievedPeople {
        print("\(person.firstname), you have been unarchived")
    }
} else {
    print("Writing to UserDefaults is still broken in playgrounds")
}

And Voila, you have stored an array of custom objects into NSUserDefaults

In the for, you have an iteration, then for each element of that loop which probably is a scalar, has no index. When each element is an empty array, single variable, or scalar and not a list or array you cannot use indices.

Basing on this tutorial, here a very basic way to do that:

$('your_trigger_element_selector').on('click', function(){    
    var data = new FormData();
    data.append('input_file_name', $('your_file_input_selector').prop('files')[0]);
    // append other variables to data if you want: data.append('field_name_x', field_value_x);

    $.ajax({
        type: 'POST',               
        processData: false, // important
        contentType: false, // important
        data: data,
        url: your_ajax_path,
        dataType : 'json',  
        // in PHP you can call and process file in the same way as if it was submitted from a form:
        // $_FILES['input_file_name']
        success: function(jsonData){
            ...
        }
        ...
    }); 
});

Don't forget to add proper error handling

Very easy:

var stringArr = dataTable.Rows[0].ItemArray.Select(x => x.ToString()).ToArray();

Where DataRow.ItemArray property is an array of objects containing the values of the row for each columns of the data table.

var x = 100;
var negX = ( -x ); // => -100

Using Regular Expressions...

Public Function CountCharacter(ByVal value As String, ByVal ch As Char) As Integer
  Return (New System.Text.RegularExpressions.Regex(ch)).Matches(value).Count
End Function

Please note that for the sake of simplicity I have made reference to only the first code snippet i.e.,

// Create an anonymous implementation of OnClickListener
private OnClickListener mCorkyListener = new OnClickListener() {
    public void onClick(View v) {
      // do something when the button is clicked
    }
};

protected void onCreate(Bundle savedValues) {
    ...
    // Capture our button from layout
    Button button = (Button)findViewById(R.id.corky);
    // Register the onClick listener with the implementation above
    button.setOnClickListener(mCorkyListener);
    ...
}

setOnClickListener(View.OnClickListener l) is a public method of View class. Button class extends the View class and can therefore call setOnClickListener(View.OnClickListener l) method.

setOnClickListener registers a callback to be invoked when the view (button in your case) is clicked. This answers should answer your first two questions:

1. Where does setOnClickListener fit in the above logic?

Ans. It registers a callback when the button is clicked. (Explained in detail in the next paragraph).

2. Which one actually listens to the button click?

Ans. setOnClickListener method is the one that actually listens to the button click.

When I say it registers a callback to be invoked, what I mean is it will run the View.OnClickListener l that is the input parameter for the method. In your case, it will be mCorkyListener mentioned in button.setOnClickListener(mCorkyListener); which will then execute the method onClick(View v) mentioned within

// Create an anonymous implementation of OnClickListener
private OnClickListener mCorkyListener = new OnClickListener() {
    public void onClick(View v) {
      // do something when the button is clicked
    }
};

Moving on further, OnClickListener is an Interface definition for a callback to be invoked when a view (button in your case) is clicked. Simply saying, when you click that button, the methods within mCorkyListener (because it is an implementation of OnClickListener) are executed. But, OnClickListener has just one method which is OnClick(View v). Therefore, whatever action that needs to be performed on clicking the button must be coded within this method.

Now that you know what setOnClickListener and OnClickListener mean, I'm sure you'll be able to differentiate between the two yourself. The third term View.OnClickListener is actually OnClickListener itself. The only reason you have View.preceding it is because of the difference in the import statment in the beginning of the program. If you have only import android.view.View; as the import statement you will have to use View.OnClickListener. If you mention either of these import statements: import android.view.View.*; or import android.view.View.OnClickListener; you can skip the View. and simply use OnClickListener.

In my case the binding name in under protocol mapping did not match the binding name on the endpoint. They match in the example below.

<endpoint address="" binding="basicHttpsBinding" contract="serviceName" />

and

    <protocolMapping>
        <add binding="basicHttpsBinding" scheme="https" />
    </protocolMapping>

Using foreach: ... endforeach; does not only make things readable, it also makes least load for memory as introduced in PHP docs So for big apps, receiving many users this would be the best solution

web2py includes support for easily building RESTful API's, described here and here (video). In particular, look at parse_as_rest, which lets you define URL patterns that map request args to database queries; and smart_query, which enables you to pass arbitrary natural language queries in the URL.

These posts apparently are in the wrong order! This is #3 in a series of 3 posts. Sorry.

I've "taken a few MORE liberties" with Lie Ryan's code. The linked list admittedly was time-consuming to access individual elements due to search overhead, i.e. walking down the list until you find the right element. I have now cured this by maintaining an address vector containing subscripts 0 through whatever paired with memory addresses. This works because the address vector is allocated all-at-once, thus contiguous in memory. Since the linked-list is no longer required, I've ripped out its associated code and structure.

This approach is not quite as efficient as a plain-and-simple static array would be, but at least you don't have to "walk the list" searching for the proper item. You can now access the elements by using a subscript. To enable this, I have had to add code to handle cases where elements are removed and the "actual" subscripts wouldn't be reflected in the pointer vector's subscripts. This may or may not be important to users. For me, it IS important, so I've made re-numbering of subscripts optional. If renumbering is not used, program flow goes to a dummy "missing" element which returns an error code, which users can choose to ignore or to act on as required.

From here, I'd advise users to code the "elements" portion to fit their needs and make sure that it runs correctly. If your added elements are arrays, carefully code subroutines to access them, seeing as how there's extra array structure that wasn't needed with static arrays. Enjoy!

If you used a raw socket (SOCK_RAW) and re-implemented TCP in userland, I think the answer is limited in this case only by the number of (local address, source port, destination address, destination port) tuples (~2^64 per local address).

It would of course take a lot of memory to keep the state of all those connections, and I think you would have to set up some iptables rules to keep the kernel TCP stack from getting upset &/or responding on your behalf.

A small patch to @Adam Sills's answer which solves FormatException on cases where the input string like "c:\u00ab\otherdirectory\" plus RegexOptions.Compiled makes the Regex compilation much faster:

    private static Regex DECODING_REGEX = new Regex(@"\\u(?<Value>[a-fA-F0-9]{4})", RegexOptions.Compiled);
    private const string PLACEHOLDER = @"#!#";
    public static string DecodeEncodedNonAsciiCharacters(this string value)
    {
        return DECODING_REGEX.Replace(
            value.Replace(@"\\", PLACEHOLDER),
            m => { 
                return ((char)int.Parse(m.Groups["Value"].Value, NumberStyles.HexNumber)).ToString(); })
            .Replace(PLACEHOLDER, @"\\");
    }

Here is what you can do:-

Exim SSL certificates

By default, the /etc/exim.conf will use the cert/key files:

/etc/exim.cert
/etc/exim.key

so if you're wondering where to set your files, that's where.

They're controlled by the exim.conf's options:

tls_certificate = /etc/exim.cert
tls_privatekey = /etc/exim.key

Intermediate Certificates

If you have a CA Root certificate (ca bundle, chain, etc.) you'll add the contents of your CA into the exim.cert, after your actual certificate.

Probably a good idea to make sure you have a copy of everything elsewhere in case you make an error.

Dovecot and ProFtpd should also read it correctly, so dovecot no longer needs the ssl_ca option. So for both cases, there is no need to make any changes to either the exim.conf or dovecot.conf(/etc/dovecot/conf/ssl.conf)

Use the location header flag:

curl -L <URL>

See my comment above asking for clarification on what you really want. Hopefully this is it:

System.Reflection.Assembly assembly = System.Reflection.Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly();
System.Diagnostics.FileVersionInfo fvi = System.Diagnostics.FileVersionInfo.GetVersionInfo(assembly.Location);
string version = fvi.FileVersion;

This works for me,

sudo chmod -R 777 /var/log/nginx

This will work although when embedding PHP in HTML it is better practice to use the following form:

<table>
    <?php foreach($array as $key=>$value): ?>
    <tr>
        <td><?= $key; ?></td>
    </tr>
    <?php endforeach; ?>
</table>

You can find the doc for the alternative syntax on PHP.net

Not perfect but close:

newcol<-sapply(rownames(t), function(rn){z[match(rn, rownames(z)), 5]})
cbind(data.frame(t), newcol)

There are no basic differences between StringBuilder and StringBuffer, only a few differences exist between them. In StringBuffer the methods are synchronized. This means that at a time only one thread can operate on them. If there is more than one thread then the second thread will have to wait for the first one to finish and the third one will have to wait for the first and second one to finish and so on. This makes the process very slow and hence the performance in the case of StringBuffer is low.

On the other hand, StringBuilder is not synchronized. This means that at a time multiple threads can operate on the same StringBuilder object at the same time. This makes the process very fast and hence performance of StringBuilder is high.

As mklement0 points out, a feature for listing all Makefile targets is missing from GNU-make, and his answer and others provides ways to do this.

However, the original post also mentions rake, whose tasks switch does something slightly different than just listing all tasks in the rakefile. Rake will only give you a list of tasks that have associated descriptions. Tasks without descriptions will not be listed. This gives the author the ability to both provide customized help descriptions and also omit help for certain targets.

If you want to emulate rake's behavior, where you provide descriptions for each target, there is a simple technique for doing this: embed descriptions in comments for each target you want listed.

You can either put the description next to the target or, as I often do, next to a PHONY specification above the target, like this:

.PHONY: target1 # Target 1 help text
target1: deps
    [... target 1 build commands]

.PHONY: target2 # Target 2 help text
target2:
    [... target 2 build commands]

...                                                                                                         

.PHONY: help # Generate list of targets with descriptions                                                                
help:                                                                                                                    
    @grep '^.PHONY: .* #' Makefile | sed 's/\.PHONY: \(.*\) # \(.*\)/\1 \2/' | expand -t20

Which will yield

$ make help
target1             Target 1 help text
target2             Target 2 help text

...
help                Generate list of targets with descriptions

You can also find a short code example in this gist and here too.

Again, this does not solve the problem of listing all the targets in a Makefile. For example, if you have a big Makefile that was maybe generated or that someone else wrote, and you want a quick way to list its targets without digging through it, this won't help.

However, if you are writing a Makefile, and you want a way to generate help text in a consistent, self-documenting way, this technique may be useful.

If you don't want to use anonymous types b/c let's say you're passing the object to another method, you can use the LoadWith load option to load associated data. It requires that your tables are associated either through foreign keys or in your Linq-to-SQL dbml model.

db.DeferredLoadingEnabled = false;
DataLoadOptions dlo = new DataLoadOptions();
dlo.LoadWith<ObjectPermissions>(op => op.Pages)
db.LoadOptions = dlo;

var pageObject = from op in db.ObjectPermissions
         select op;

// no join needed

Then you can call

pageObject.Pages.PageID

Depending on what your data looks like, you'd probably want to do this the other way around,

DataLoadOptions dlo = new DataLoadOptions();
dlo.LoadWith<Pages>(p => p.ObjectPermissions)
db.LoadOptions = dlo;

var pageObject = from p in db.Pages
                 select p;

// no join needed

var objectPermissionName = pageObject.ObjectPermissions.ObjectPermissionName;

binascii methodes are easier by the way

>>> import binascii
>>> x=b'test'
>>> x=binascii.hexlify(x)
>>> x
b'74657374'
>>> y=str(x,'ascii')
>>> y
'74657374'
>>> x=binascii.unhexlify(x)
>>> x
b'test'
>>> y=str(x,'ascii')
>>> y
'test'

Hope it helps. :)

Using an iframe to "render" a PDF will not work on all browsers; it depends on how the browser handles PDF files. Some browsers (such as Firefox and Chrome) have a built-in PDF rendered which allows them to display the PDF inline where as some older browsers (perhaps older versions of IE attempt to download the file instead).

Instead, I recommend checking out PDFObject which is a Javascript library to embed PDFs in HTML files. It handles browser compatibility pretty well and will most likely work on IE8.

In your HTML, you could set up a div to display the PDFs:

<div id="pdfRenderer"></div>

Then, you can have Javascript code to embed a PDF in that div:

var pdf = new PDFObject({
  url: "https://something.com/HTC_One_XL_User_Guide.pdf",
  id: "pdfRendered",
  pdfOpenParams: {
    view: "FitH"
  }
}).embed("pdfRenderer");

C# adaptation of approach often used in C - set value of outer loop's variable outside of loop conditions (i.e. for loop using int variable INT_MAX -1 is often good choice):

for (int i = 0; i < 100; i++)
{
    for (int j = 0; j < 100; j++)
    {
        if (exit_condition)
        {
            // cause the outer loop to break:
            // use i = INT_MAX - 1; otherwise i++ == INT_MIN < 100 and loop will continue 
            i = int.MaxValue - 1;
            Console.WriteLine("Hi");
            // break the inner loop
            break;
        }
    }
    // if you have code in outer loop it will execute after break from inner loop    
}

As note in code says break will not magically jump to next iteration of the outer loop - so if you have code outside of inner loop this approach requires more checks. Consider other solutions in such case.

This approach works with for and while loops but does not work for foreach. In case of foreach you won't have code access to the hidden enumerator so you can't change it (and even if you could IEnumerator doesn't have some "MoveToEnd" method).

You should use val instead of value.

<script type="text/javascript" language="javascript">
$(document).ready(function () { 
    $('input[name="testing"]').val('Work!');
});
</script>

Go to the Preferences menu command under menu Settings, and select Language Menu/Tab Settings, depending on your version. Earlier versions use Tab Settings. Later versions use Language. Click the Replace with space check box. Set the size to 4.

See documentation: http://docs.notepad-plus-plus.org/index.php/Built-in_Languages#Tab_settings

SELECT TOP 1 ID, Name, Score, [Date]
FROM myTable
WHERE ID = 2
Order BY [Date]

This is similar to the previous but works forward through the string instead of recursively backwards. Leaves errno with the right value for last failure. If there's a leading slash, there's an extra time through the loop which could have been avoided via one find_first_of() outside the loop or by detecting the leading / and setting pre to 1. The efficiency is the same whether we get set up by a first loop or a pre loop call, and the complexity would be (slightly) higher when using the pre-loop call.

#include <iostream>
#include <string>
#include <sys/stat.h>

int
mkpath(std::string s,mode_t mode)
{
    size_t pos=0;
    std::string dir;
    int mdret;

    if(s[s.size()-1]!='/'){
        // force trailing / so we can handle everything in loop
        s+='/';
    }

    while((pos=s.find_first_of('/',pos))!=std::string::npos){
        dir=s.substr(0,pos++);
        if(dir.size()==0) continue; // if leading / first time is 0 length
        if((mdret=mkdir(dir.c_str(),mode)) && errno!=EEXIST){
            return mdret;
        }
    }
    return mdret;
}

int main()
{
    int mkdirretval;
    mkdirretval=mkpath("./foo/bar",0755);
    std::cout << mkdirretval << '\n';

}

You should consider splitting the large file to chunks and rely on multi threading capabilities to process more than one file at a time OR let the whole process run as a background task using TimerTask and write another query to know the status of it form the browser including a progress bar can be shown if you can know the process time of a file or record.

You can see the following code to solved the problem

return $query->join('kg_shops', function($join)
{
    $join->on('kg_shops.id', '=', 'kg_feeds.shop_id');
    $join->where('kg_shops.active','=', 1);
});

Or another way to solved it

 return $query->join('kg_shops', function($join)
{
    $join->on('kg_shops.id', '=', 'kg_feeds.shop_id');
    $join->on('kg_shops.active','=', DB::raw('1'));
});

you should use this code:

$json = json_encode(array_map('utf8_encode', $arr))

array_map function converts special characters in UTF8 standard

I had a similar problem after updating to pip==8.0.0. Had to resort to debugging pip to trace out the bad path.

As it turns out my profile directory had a distutils configuration file with some empty path values. This was causing all packages to be installed to the same root directory instead of the appropriate virtual environment (in my case /lib/site-packages).

I'm unsure how the config file got there or how it had empty values but it started after updating pip.

In case anyone else stumbles upon this same problem, simply deleting the file ~/.pydistutils.cfg (or removing the empty config path) fixed the problem in my environment because pip went back to the default distributed configuration.

MacPorts is another package manager for OS X:.

Installation instructions are at The MacPorts Project -- Download & Installation after which one issues sudo port install pythonXX, where XX is 27 or 35.

That's the identity of the location of the object in memory...

This example might help you understand the concept a little more.

foo = 1
bar = foo
baz = bar
fii = 1

print id(foo)
print id(bar)
print id(baz)
print id(fii)

> 1532352
> 1532352
> 1532352
> 1532352

These all point to the same location in memory, which is why their values are the same. In the example, 1 is only stored once, and anything else pointing to 1 will reference that memory location.

window.top.location.href = 'index.html';

This will redirect the main window to the index page. Thanks

You can use Create USer to create a user

CREATE LOGIN sam
    WITH PASSWORD = '340$Uuxwp7Mcxo7Khy';
USE AdventureWorks;
CREATE USER sam FOR LOGIN sam;
GO 

and to Grant (Read-only access) you can use the following

GRANT SELECT TO sam

Should anyone be looking for this after me here's a really easy way to add your Path.

Send the path to a file like the image shows, copy and paste it from the file and add the specific path on the end with a preceding semicolon to the new path. It may be needed to be adapted prior to windows 7, but at least it is an easy starting point.

button:hover is just when you move the cursor over the button.
Try button:active instead...will work for other elements as well

button:active{_x000D_
  color: red;_x000D_
}

Here are the rules for how these functions work:

stringValue.CompareTo(otherStringValue)

1. null comes before a string
2. it uses CultureInfo.CurrentCulture.CompareInfo.Compare, which means it will use a culture-dependent comparison. This might mean that ß will compare equal to SS in Germany, or similar

stringValue.Equals(otherStringValue)

1. null is not considered equal to anything
2. unless you specify a StringComparison option, it will use what looks like a direct ordinal equality check, i.e. ß is not the same as SS, in any language or culture

stringValue == otherStringValue

1. Is not the same as stringValue.Equals().
2. The == operator calls the static Equals(string a, string b) method (which in turn goes to an internal EqualsHelper to do the comparison.
3. Calling .Equals() on a null string gets null reference exception, while on == does not.

Object.ReferenceEquals(stringValue, otherStringValue)

Just checks that references are the same, i.e. it isn't just two strings with the same contents, you're comparing a string object with itself.

Note that with the options above that use method calls, there are overloads with more options to specify how to compare.

My advice if you just want to check for equality is to make up your mind whether you want to use a culture-dependent comparison or not, and then use .CompareTo or .Equals, depending on the choice.

You may do it by using following code:

var url = "www.site.com/index.php#hello";
var hash = url.substring(url.indexOf('#')+1);
alert(hash);

SEE DEMO

for…in iterates over property names, not values, and does so in an unspecified order (yes, even after ES6). You shouldn’t use it to iterate over arrays. For them, there’s ES5’s forEach method that passes both the value and the index to the function you give it:

var myArray = [123, 15, 187, 32];

myArray.forEach(function (value, i) {
    console.log('%d: %s', i, value);
});

// Outputs:
// 0: 123
// 1: 15
// 2: 187
// 3: 32

Or ES6’s Array.prototype.entries, which now has support across current browser versions:

for (const [i, value] of myArray.entries()) {
    console.log('%d: %s', i, value);
}

For iterables in general (where you would use a for…of loop rather than a for…in), there’s nothing built-in, however:

function* enumerate(iterable) {
    let i = 0;

    for (const x of iterable) {
        yield [i, x];
        i++;
    }
}

for (const [i, obj] of enumerate(myArray)) {
    console.log(i, obj);
}

demo

If you actually did mean for…in – enumerating properties – you would need an additional counter. Object.keys(obj).forEach could work, but it only includes own properties; for…in includes enumerable properties anywhere on the prototype chain.

The reason os.path.join('C:', 'src') is not working as you expect is because of something in the documentation that you linked to:

Note that on Windows, since there is a current directory for each drive, os.path.join("c:", "foo") represents a path relative to the current directory on drive C: (c:foo), not c:\foo.

As ghostdog said, you probably want mypath=os.path.join('c:\\', 'sourcedir')

bootstrap provides various classes for table

 <table class="table"></table>
 <table class="table table-bordered"></table>
 <table class="table table-hover"></table>
 <table class="table table-condensed"></table>
 <table class="table table-responsive"></table>

I did like this

var datetoEnter= DateTime.ParseExact(createdDate, "dd/mm/yyyy", CultureInfo.InvariantCulture);

ALTER TABLE my_table ADD COLUMN new_field TinyInt(1) DEFAULT 0;

Both are valid. It's your choice.

I prefer border:0 because it's shorter; I find that easier to read. You may find none more legible. We live in a world of very capable CSS post-processors so I'd recommend you use whatever you prefer and then run it through a "compressor". There's no holy war worth fighting here but Webpack?LESS?PostCSS?PurgeCSS is a good 2020 stack.

That all said, if you're hand-writing all your production CSS, I maintain —despite the grumbling in the comments— it does not hurt to be bandwidth conscious. Using border:0 will save an infinitesimal amount of bandwidth on its own, but if you make every byte count, you will make your website faster.

The CSS2 specs are here. These are extended in CSS3 but not in any way relevant to this.

'border'
    Value:      [ <border-width> || <border-style> || <'border-top-color'> ] | inherit
    Initial:    see individual properties
    Applies to:     all elements
    Inherited:      no
    Percentages:    N/A
    Media:      visual
    Computed value:     see individual properties 

You can use any combination of width, style and colour.
Here, 0 sets the width, none the style. They have the same rendering result: nothing is shown.

I know this MIGHT not be the cause of your issue, but I've spent a few hours hitting my head against the wall to solve this issue and this is my solution.

So I had installed XAMPP in a deeply nested directory and all the conf files make reference to root\xampp\apache, whereas my files were some_dir\another_dir\whatthehelliswrongwithme\finally\xampp\apache

so my options were to either go through and edit all \xampp\apache references and point them at the right place, OR, the much simpler option... reinstall XAMPP at the root, so the references all point to the right place.

A little annoying, but I guess that's what we get when Mac and Windows try to be friends..

Hope it helps a few of you.

I had the same problem using asp.net MVC and found the solution here

There is much confusion among newcomers to AngularJS as to why the $http service shorthand functions ($http.post(), etc.) don’t appear to be swappable with the jQuery equivalents (jQuery.post(), etc.)

The difference is in how jQuery and AngularJS serialize and transmit the data. Fundamentally, the problem lies with your server language of choice being unable to understand AngularJS’s transmission natively ... By default, jQuery transmits data using

Content-Type: x-www-form-urlencoded

and the familiar foo=bar&baz=moe serialization.

AngularJS, however, transmits data using

Content-Type: application/json 

and { "foo": "bar", "baz": "moe" }

JSON serialization, which unfortunately some Web server languages—notably PHP—do not unserialize natively.

Works like a charm.

CODE

// Your app's root module...
angular.module('MyModule', [], function($httpProvider) {
  // Use x-www-form-urlencoded Content-Type
  $httpProvider.defaults.headers.post['Content-Type'] = 'application/x-www-form-urlencoded;charset=utf-8';

  /**
   * The workhorse; converts an object to x-www-form-urlencoded serialization.
   * @param {Object} obj
   * @return {String}
   */ 
  var param = function(obj) {
    var query = '', name, value, fullSubName, subName, subValue, innerObj, i;

    for(name in obj) {
      value = obj[name];

      if(value instanceof Array) {
        for(i=0; i<value.length; ++i) {
          subValue = value[i];
          fullSubName = name + '[' + i + ']';
          innerObj = {};
          innerObj[fullSubName] = subValue;
          query += param(innerObj) + '&';
        }
      }
      else if(value instanceof Object) {
        for(subName in value) {
          subValue = value[subName];
          fullSubName = name + '[' + subName + ']';
          innerObj = {};
          innerObj[fullSubName] = subValue;
          query += param(innerObj) + '&';
        }
      }
      else if(value !== undefined && value !== null)
        query += encodeURIComponent(name) + '=' + encodeURIComponent(value) + '&';
    }

    return query.length ? query.substr(0, query.length - 1) : query;
  };

  // Override $http service's default transformRequest
  $httpProvider.defaults.transformRequest = [function(data) {
    return angular.isObject(data) && String(data) !== '[object File]' ? param(data) : data;
  }];
});

I am facing the same issue. If parent element is hidden then after showing the element chosen drop down are not showing. This is not a perfect solution but it solved my issue. After showing the element you can use following code.

function onshowelement() { $('.chosen').chosen('destroy'); $(".chosen").chosen({ width: '100%' }); }

First check the type of compression using the file command:

file name_name.tgz

O/P- If output is " XZ compressed data"

Then use tar xf <archive name> to unzip the file, e.g.

• tar xf archive.tar.xz

• tar xf archive.tar.gz

• tar xf archive.tar

• tar xf archive.tgz

We can use the below its very simple.

Date.ToString("yyyy-MM-dd");

Ok, You should "construct" the html and find the .content div.

like this:

$.ajax({
   url:href,
   type:'GET',
   success: function(data){
       $('#content').html($(data).find('#content').html());
   }
});

Simple!

I fixed an error like this changing the places of the routes in routes.php, for example i had something like this:

Route::resource('Mensajes', 'MensajeriaController');
Route::get('Mensajes/modificar', 'MensajeriaController@modificarEstado');

and then I put it like this:

Route::get('Mensajes/modificar', 'MensajeriaController@modificarEstado');
Route::resource('Mensajes', 'MensajeriaController');

I think that there is a very simple answer that really emulates all the features of range but for both float and integer. In this solution, you just suppose that your approximation by default is 1e-7 (or the one you choose) and you can change it when you call the function.

def drange(start,stop=None,jump=1,approx=7): # Approx to 1e-7 by default
  '''
  This function is equivalent to range but for both float and integer
  '''
  if not stop: # If there is no y value: range(x)
      stop= start
      start= 0
  valor= round(start,approx)
  while valor < stop:
      if valor==int(valor):
          yield int(round(valor,approx))
      else:
          yield float(round(valor,approx))
      valor += jump
  for i in drange(12):
      print(i)

To use a view, the user must have the appropriate privileges but only for the view itself, not its underlying objects. However, if access privileges for the underlying objects of the view are removed, then the user no longer has access. This behavior occurs because the security domain that is used when a user queries the view is that of the definer of the view. If the privileges on the underlying objects are revoked from the view's definer, then the view becomes invalid, and no one can use the view. Therefore, even if a user has been granted access to the view, the user may not be able to use the view if the definer's rights have been revoked from the view's underlying objects.

gitignore - Specifies intentionally untracked files to ignore.

Example to exclude everything except a specific directory foo/bar (note the /* - without the slash, the wildcard would also exclude everything within foo/bar):

$ cat .gitignore
# exclude everything except directory foo/bar
/*
!/foo
/foo/*
!/foo/bar

You said that budgetpost is alphanumeric. That means it is looking for comparisons against strings. You should try enclosing your parameters in single quotes (and you are missing the final THEN in the Case expression).

UPDATE tab1   
SET budgpost_gr1=   CASE  
                        WHEN (budgpost in ('1001','1012','50055'))  THEN 'BP_GR_A'   
                        WHEN (budgpost in ('5','10','98','0'))  THEN 'BP_GR_B'  
                        WHEN (budgpost in ('11','876','7976','67465')) THEN 'What?'
                        ELSE 'Missing' 
                        END 

It's a shortened "N-tuple" (like in quadruple, quintuple etc.)

It's a row of a rowset taken as a whole.

If you issue:

SELECT  col1, col2
FROM    mytable

, whole result will be a ROWSET, and each pair of col1, col2 will be a tuple.

Some databases can work with a tuple as a whole.

Like, you can do this:

SELECT  col1, col2
FROM    mytable
WHERE   (col1, col2) =
        (
        SELECT  col3, col4
        FROM    othertable
        )

, which checks that a whole tuple from one rowset matches a whole tuple from another rowset.

You can just cast the WebRequest to an HttpWebRequest showed below:

var request = (HttpWebRequest)WebRequest.Create(myUri);

and then instead of trying to manipulate the header list, apply it directly in the request property request.Referer:

request.Referer = "yourReferer";

These properties are available in the request object.

It should be extremely risky... but you can use exec():

a = 'b=5'
exec(a)
c = b*2
print (c)

In my case I forgot to add @RequestBody annotation to the method argument:

public TestController(@RequestBody KeeperClient testClient) {
        TestController.testClient = testClient;

There are two ways to capture network traffic directly from an Android emulator:

1. Copy and run an ARM-compatible tcpdump binary on the emulator, writing output to the SD card, perhaps (e.g. tcpdump -s0 -w /sdcard/emulator.cap).

2. Run emulator -tcpdump emulator.cap -avd my_avd to write all the emulator's traffic to a local file on your PC

In both cases you can then analyse the pcap file with tcpdump or Wireshark as normal.

wkhtmltopdf > 0.11 doesn't have this X-server issue.
So installing 0.12.2.1 on a linux server.

1. At first install xvfb server:

   sudo apt-get install xvfb
   

2. Get needed version of wkhtmltopdf from http://wkhtmltopdf.org/downloads.html

3. Install wkhtmltopdf:

   sudo dpkg -i wkhtmltox-0.12.2.1_linux-trusty-amd64.deb
   

   or install with wget

   URL='http://download.gna.org/wkhtmltopdf/0.12/0.12.2.1/wkhtmltox-0.12.2.1_linux-trusty-amd64.deb'; FILE=`mktemp`; wget "$URL" -qO $FILE && sudo dpkg -i $FILE; rm $FILE
   

4. Install dependency (if needed):

   sudo apt-get -f install
   

5. Create symblic link in /usr/local/bin/:

   echo 'exec xvfb-run -a -s "-screen 0 640x480x16" wkhtmltopdf "$@"' | sudo tee /usr/local/bin/wkhtmltopdf.sh >/dev/null
   sudo chmod a+x /usr/local/bin/wkhtmltopdf.sh
   

6. Now try below and it should work,

   /usr/local/bin/wkhtmltopdf http://www.google.com test.pdf
   

To succinctly summarize some of the other answers:

If you're not using C++ 20 yet, you can write your own mapContainsKey function:

bool mapContainsKey(std::map<int, int>& map, int key)
{
  if (map.find(key) == map.end()) return false;
  return true;
}

If you'd like to avoid many overloads for map vs unordered_map and different key and value types, you can make this a template function.

If you're using C++ 20 or later, there will be a built-in contains function:

std::map<int, int> myMap;

// do stuff with myMap here

int key = 123;

if (myMap.contains(key))
{
  // stuff here
}

Uri uri = Uri.parse("smsto:YOUR_SMS_NUMBER");   
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_SENDTO, uri);   
intent.putExtra("sms_body", "The SMS text");   
startActivity(intent);  

I had been having the exact same problem!

To get the internal SD card you can use

String extStore = System.getenv("EXTERNAL_STORAGE");
File f_exts = new File(extStore);

To get the external SD card you can use

String secStore = System.getenv("SECONDARY_STORAGE");
File f_secs = new File(secStore);

On running the code

 extStore = "/storage/emulated/legacy"
 secStore = "/storage/extSdCarcd"

works perfectly!

This snippet works for Rails 3

class ReportsController < ApplicationController

  def summary
    logger.debug self.class.to_s + "." + self.action_name
  end

end

will print

. . .
ReportsController.summary
. . .

why not just pass an data an object with your key/value pairs then you don't have to worry about encoding

$.ajax({
    type: "Post",
    url: "getdata.php",
    data:{
       timestamp: timestamp,
       uid: id,
       uname: name
    },
    async: true,
    cache: false,
    success: function(data) {


    };
}?);?

In my app, user experience is better if more memory is used, so I have to decide if I really should free all the memory I can in didReceiveMemoryWarning. Based on Split's and Jasper Pol's answer, using a maximum of 45% of the total device memory appears to be a safe threshold (thanks guys).

In case someone wants to look at my actual implementation:

#import "mach/mach.h"

- (void)didReceiveMemoryWarning
{
    // Remember to call super
    [super didReceiveMemoryWarning];

    // If we are using more than 45% of the memory, free even important resources,
    // because the app might be killed by the OS if we don't
    if ([self __getMemoryUsedPer1] > 0.45)
    {
        // Free important resources here
    }

    // Free regular unimportant resources always here
}

- (float)__getMemoryUsedPer1
{
    struct mach_task_basic_info info;
    mach_msg_type_number_t size = sizeof(info);
    kern_return_t kerr = task_info(mach_task_self(), MACH_TASK_BASIC_INFO, (task_info_t)&info, &size);
    if (kerr == KERN_SUCCESS)
    {
        float used_bytes = info.resident_size;
        float total_bytes = [NSProcessInfo processInfo].physicalMemory;
        //NSLog(@"Used: %f MB out of %f MB (%f%%)", used_bytes / 1024.0f / 1024.0f, total_bytes / 1024.0f / 1024.0f, used_bytes * 100.0f / total_bytes);
        return used_bytes / total_bytes;
    }
    return 1;
}

Swift (based on this answer):

func __getMemoryUsedPer1() -> Float
{
    let MACH_TASK_BASIC_INFO_COUNT = (sizeof(mach_task_basic_info_data_t) / sizeof(natural_t))
    let name = mach_task_self_
    let flavor = task_flavor_t(MACH_TASK_BASIC_INFO)
    var size = mach_msg_type_number_t(MACH_TASK_BASIC_INFO_COUNT)
    var infoPointer = UnsafeMutablePointer<mach_task_basic_info>.alloc(1)
    let kerr = task_info(name, flavor, UnsafeMutablePointer(infoPointer), &size)
    let info = infoPointer.move()
    infoPointer.dealloc(1)
    if kerr == KERN_SUCCESS
    {
        var used_bytes: Float = Float(info.resident_size)
        var total_bytes: Float = Float(NSProcessInfo.processInfo().physicalMemory)
        println("Used: \(used_bytes / 1024.0 / 1024.0) MB out of \(total_bytes / 1024.0 / 1024.0) MB (\(used_bytes * 100.0 / total_bytes)%%)")
        return used_bytes / total_bytes
    }
    return 1
}

Interesting info about MSCorlib:

• The .NET 2.0 assembly will reference and use the 2.0 mscorlib.The .NET 1.1 assembly will reference the 1.1 mscorlib but will use the 2.0 mscorlib at runtime (due to hard-coded version redirects in theruntime itself)
• In GAC there is only one version of mscorlib, you dont find 1.1 version on GAC even if you have 1.1 framework installed on your machine. It would be good if somebody can explain why MSCorlib 2.0 alone is in GAC whereas 1.x version live inside framework folder
• Is it possible to force a different runtime to be loaded by the application by making a config setting in your app / web.config? you won’t be able to choose the CLR version by settings in the ConfigurationFile – at that point, a CLR will already be running, and there can only be one per process. Immediately after the CLR is chosen the MSCorlib appropriate for that CLR is loaded.

You can achieve an expected result with requests library as well:

import requests

url = "http://www.mywebsite.org/Data%20Set.zip"

print(f"Before: {url}")
print(f"After:  {requests.utils.unquote(url)}")

Output:

$ python3 test_url_unquote.py

Before: http://www.mywebsite.org/Data%20Set.zip
After:  http://www.mywebsite.org/Data Set.zip

Might be handy if you are already using requests, without using another library for this job.

The earlier answers are calling helpers, but the following will help for calling controller methods. I have used this on Ruby on Rails 2.3.2.

First add the following code to your .irbrc file (which can be in your home directory)

class Object
   def request(options = {})
     url=app.url_for(options)
     app.get(url)
     puts app.html_document.root.to_s
  end
end

Then in the Ruby on Rails console you can type something like...

request(:controller => :show, :action => :show_frontpage)

...and the HTML will be dumped to the console.

You just make divs like this:

<div style="width:100px; height: 100px; border:1px solid; overflow:hidden; ">
    <br/>
    <div style="position:inherit; width: 200px; height:200px; background:yellow;">
        <br/>
        <div style="position:absolute; width: 500px; height:50px; background:Pink; z-index: 99;">
            <br/>
        </div>
    </div>
</div>

I hope this code will help you :)

To use display:none is a good option just to removing an element BUT it will be also removed for screenreaders. There are also discussions if it effects SEO. There's a good, short article on that topic on A List Apart

If you really just want hide and not remove an element, better use:

div {
  position: absolute; 
  left: -999em;
}

Like this it can be also read by screen readers.

The only disadvantage of this method is, that this DIV is actually rendered and it might effect the performance, especially on mobile phones.

ANSI (aka Windows-1252/WinLatin1) is a character encoding of the Latin alphabet, fairly similar to ISO-8859-1. You may want to take a look of it at Wikipedia.

This happened to me after I installed Visual Studio 15 2017.

The C++ compiler for Visual Studio 14 2015 was not the problem. It seemed to be a problem with the Windows 10 SDK.

Adding the Windows 10 SDKs to Visual Studio 14 2015 solved the problem for me.

See attached screenshot.

Use the Calendar-API:

// get Calendar instance
Calendar cal = Calendar.getInstance();
cal.setTime(new Date());

// substract 7 days
// If we give 7 there it will give 8 days back
cal.set(Calendar.DAY_OF_MONTH, cal.get(Calendar.DAY_OF_MONTH)-6);

// convert to date
Date myDate = cal.getTime();

Hope this helps. Have Fun!

dateutil.relativedelta is convenient if you need to access hours, minutes and seconds as floats as well. datetime.timedelta does not provide a similar interface.

from dateutil.relativedelta import relativedelta
rt = relativedelta(seconds=5440)
print(rt.seconds)
print('{:02d}:{:02d}:{:02d}'.format(
    int(rt.hours), int(rt.minutes), int(rt.seconds)))

Prints

40.0
01:30:40

Static libraries do not link with other static libraries. The only way to do this is to use your librarian/archiver tool (for example ar on Linux) to create a single new static library by concatenating the multiple libraries.

Edit: In response to your update, the only way I know to select only the symbols that are required is to manually create the library from the subset of the .o files that contain them. This is difficult, time consuming and error prone. I'm not aware of any tools to help do this (not to say they don't exist), but it would make quite an interesting project to produce one.

The easier solution for me was:

Considerations:

• This solution requires autogenerated Navigation Drawer Activity provided by Android Studio.
• Classes DrawerItem, CustomDrawerAdapter and layout custom_drawer_item.xml were taken from this tutorial.

1. Create this class for wrap the custom drawer item:

public class DrawerItem {

  String ItemName;
  int imgResID;

  public DrawerItem(String itemName, int imgResID) {
        super();
        ItemName = itemName;
        this.imgResID = imgResID;
  }

  public String getItemName() {
        return ItemName;
  }
  public void setItemName(String itemName) {
        ItemName = itemName;
  }
  public int getImgResID() {
        return imgResID;
  }
  public void setImgResID(int imgResID) {
        this.imgResID = imgResID;
  }
}

2. Create custom layout (custom_drawer_item.xml) for your drawer items:

<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:layout_width="fill_parent"
    android:layout_height="fill_parent" >

<LinearLayout
    android:id="@+id/itemLayout"
    android:layout_width="fill_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:layout_alignParentLeft="true"
    android:orientation="vertical"
    android:layout_marginTop="0dp"
    android:background="?android:attr/activatedBackgroundIndicator">

    <LinearLayout
        android:layout_width="fill_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:minHeight="55dp">

        <ImageView
            android:id="@+id/drawer_icon"
            android:layout_width="wrap_content"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"/>

        <TextView
            android:id="@+id/drawer_itemName"
            android:layout_width="wrap_content"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:textAppearance="?android:attr/textAppearanceLarge"/>
    </LinearLayout>

    <View
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="1dp"
        android:layout_marginBottom="1dp"
        android:layout_marginTop="1dp"
        android:layout_marginLeft="10dp"
        android:layout_marginRight="10dp"
        android:background="#DADADC">
    </View>
</LinearLayout>
</RelativeLayout>

3. Create your custom adapter:

import java.util.List;
import android.app.Activity;
import android.content.Context;
import android.view.LayoutInflater;
import android.view.View;
import android.view.ViewGroup;
import android.widget.ArrayAdapter;
import android.widget.ImageView;
import android.widget.TextView;

public class CustomDrawerAdapter extends ArrayAdapter<DrawerItem> {

Context context;
List<DrawerItem> drawerItemList;
int layoutResID;

public CustomDrawerAdapter(Context context, int layoutResourceID, List<DrawerItem> listItems) {
    super(context, layoutResourceID, listItems);
    this.context = context;
    this.drawerItemList = listItems;
    this.layoutResID = layoutResourceID;
}

@Override
public View getView(int position, View convertView, ViewGroup parent) {
    // TODO Auto-generated method stub

    DrawerItemHolder drawerHolder;
    View view = convertView;

    if (view == null) {
        LayoutInflater inflater = ((Activity) context).getLayoutInflater();
        drawerHolder = new DrawerItemHolder();

        view = inflater.inflate(layoutResID, parent, false);
        drawerHolder.ItemName = (TextView)view.findViewById(R.id.drawer_itemName);
        drawerHolder.icon = (ImageView) view.findViewById(R.id.drawer_icon);

        view.setTag(drawerHolder);

    } else {
        drawerHolder = (DrawerItemHolder) view.getTag();
    }

    DrawerItem dItem = (DrawerItem) this.drawerItemList.get(position);

    drawerHolder.icon.setImageDrawable(view.getResources().getDrawable(
            dItem.getImgResID()));
    drawerHolder.ItemName.setText(dItem.getItemName());

    return view;
}

private static class DrawerItemHolder {
    TextView ItemName;
    ImageView icon;
}
}

4. In autogenerated NavigationDrawerFragment class onCreateView method, replace the autogenerated adapter for this:

ArrayList<DrawerItem> dataList = new ArrayList<DrawerItem>();
dataList.add(new DrawerItem(getString(R.string.title_section1), R.drawable.ic_action_1));
dataList.add(new DrawerItem(getString(R.string.title_section2), R.drawable.ic_action_2));
dataList.add(new DrawerItem(getString(R.string.title_section3), R.drawable.ic_action_3));

mDrawerListView.setAdapter(new CustomDrawerAdapter(
        getActivity(),
        R.layout.custom_drawer_item,
        dataList));

Remember replace R.string.title_sectionN and R.drawable.ic_action_N for your own resources.

You can write an object that behaves like a dict quite easily with ABCs (Abstract Base Classes) from the collections.abc module. It even tells you if you missed a method, so below is the minimal version that shuts the ABC up.

from collections.abc import MutableMapping


class TransformedDict(MutableMapping):
    """A dictionary that applies an arbitrary key-altering
       function before accessing the keys"""

    def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs):
        self.store = dict()
        self.update(dict(*args, **kwargs))  # use the free update to set keys

    def __getitem__(self, key):
        return self.store[self._keytransform(key)]

    def __setitem__(self, key, value):
        self.store[self._keytransform(key)] = value

    def __delitem__(self, key):
        del self.store[self._keytransform(key)]

    def __iter__(self):
        return iter(self.store)
    
    def __len__(self):
        return len(self.store)

    def _keytransform(self, key):
        return key

You get a few free methods from the ABC:

class MyTransformedDict(TransformedDict):

    def _keytransform(self, key):
        return key.lower()


s = MyTransformedDict([('Test', 'test')])

assert s.get('TEST') is s['test']   # free get
assert 'TeSt' in s                  # free __contains__
                                    # free setdefault, __eq__, and so on

import pickle
# works too since we just use a normal dict
assert pickle.loads(pickle.dumps(s)) == s

I wouldn't subclass dict (or other builtins) directly. It often makes no sense, because what you actually want to do is implement the interface of a dict. And that is exactly what ABCs are for.

Please set your form action attribute as below it will solve your problem.

<form name="addProductForm" id="addProductForm" action="javascript:;" enctype="multipart/form-data" method="post" accept-charset="utf-8">

jQuery code:

$(document).ready(function () {
    $("#addProductForm").submit(function (event) {

        //disable the default form submission
        event.preventDefault();
        //grab all form data  
        var formData = $(this).serialize();

        $.ajax({
            url: 'addProduct.php',
            type: 'POST',
            data: formData,
            async: false,
            cache: false,
            contentType: false,
            processData: false,
            success: function () {
                alert('Form Submitted!');
            },
            error: function(){
                alert("error in ajax form submission");
            }
        });

        return false;
    });
});

Different ways to replace NULL in sql server

Replacing NULL value using:

1. ISNULL() function

2. COALESCE() function

3. CASE Statement

SELECT Name as EmployeeName, ISNULL(Bonus,0) as EmployeeBonus from tblEmployee

SELECT Name as EmployeeName, COALESCE(Bonus, 0) as EmployeeBonus 
FROM tblEmployee

SELECT Name as EmployeeName, CASE WHEN Bonus IS NULL THEN 0 
ELSE Bonus  END as EmployeeBonus 
FROM  tblEmployee

You're using junit.framework.Assert instead of org.junit.Assert.

A pretty simple solution is to check for the screen width. Since almost all mobile devices have a max screen width of 480px (at present), it's pretty reliable:

if( screen.width <= 480 ) {
    location.href = '/mobile.html';
}

The user-agent string is also a place to look. However, the former solution is still better since even if some freaking device does not respond correctly for the user-agent, the screen width doesn't lie.

The only exception here are tablet pc's like the ipad. Those devices have a higher screen width than smartphones and I would probably go with the user-agent-string for those.

PDO driver for PostgreSQL is now included in the debian package php5-dev. The above steps using Pecl no longer works.

The new version of SharePoint and Office (SharePoint 2010 and Office 2010) respectively are supposed to allow for this. This also includes the web based versions. I have seen Word and Excel in action do this, not sure about other client applications.

I am not sure about the specific implementation features you are asking about in terms of security though. Sorry.,=

Here is a discussion

http://blogs.msdn.com/b/sharepoint/archive/2009/10/19/sharepoint-2010.aspx

Fastest way I found is via inner1d. Here's how it compares to other numpy methods:

import numpy as np
from numpy.core.umath_tests import inner1d

V = np.random.random_sample((10**6,3,)) # 1 million vectors
A = np.sqrt(np.einsum('...i,...i', V, V))
B = np.linalg.norm(V,axis=1)   
C = np.sqrt((V ** 2).sum(-1))
D = np.sqrt((V*V).sum(axis=1))
E = np.sqrt(inner1d(V,V))

print [np.allclose(E,x) for x in [A,B,C,D]] # [True, True, True, True]

import cProfile
cProfile.run("np.sqrt(np.einsum('...i,...i', V, V))") # 3 function calls in 0.013 seconds
cProfile.run('np.linalg.norm(V,axis=1)')              # 9 function calls in 0.029 seconds
cProfile.run('np.sqrt((V ** 2).sum(-1))')             # 5 function calls in 0.028 seconds
cProfile.run('np.sqrt((V*V).sum(axis=1))')            # 5 function calls in 0.027 seconds
cProfile.run('np.sqrt(inner1d(V,V))')                 # 2 function calls in 0.009 seconds

inner1d is ~3x faster than linalg.norm and a hair faster than einsum

If you are only dealing with Times and no dates you will want to only deal with TimeSpan and handle crossing over midnight.

TimeSpan time1 = ...;  // assume TimeOfDay
TimeSpan time2 = ...;  // assume TimeOfDay
TimeSpan diffTime = time2 - time1;
if (time2 < time1)  // crosses over midnight
    diffTime += TimeSpan.FromTicks(TimeSpan.TicksPerDay);
int totalMilliSeconds = (int)diffTime.TotalMilliseconds;

CGI is a mechanism whereby an external program is called by the web server in order to handle a request, with environment variables and standard input being used to feed the request data to the program. The exact language the external program is written in does not matter, although it is easier to write CGI programs in some languages versus others.

Since CGI scripts need execute permissions, httpd by default only allows CGI programs in the cgi-bin directory to be run for (possibly now misguided) security purposes.

Most PHP scripts run in the web server process via mod_php. This is not CGI.

CGI is slow since the program (and related interpreter) must be started up per request. Modern alternatives are embedded execution, used by mod_php, and long-running processes, used by FastCGI. A given language may have its own way of implementing those mechanisms, so be sure to ask around before resorting to CGI.

The 2 in Anaconda2 means that the main version of Python will be 2.x rather than the 3.x installed in Anaconda3. The current release has Python 2.7.13.

The 4.4.0.1 is the version number of Anaconda. The current advertised version is 4.4.0 and I assume the .1 is a minor release or for other similar use. The Windows releases, which I use, just say 4.4.0 in the file name.

Others have now explained the difference between Anaconda and Miniconda, so I'll skip that.

If I understand you, perhaps you don't need an array of zeroes; rather, you need a hash. The hash keys will be the values in the other array and the hash values will be the number of times the value exists in the other array:

use strict;
use warnings;

my @other_array = (0,0,0,1,2,2,3,3,3,4);
my %tallies;
$tallies{$_} ++ for @other_array;

print "$_ => $tallies{$_}\n" for sort {$a <=> $b} keys %tallies;    

Output:

0 => 3
1 => 1
2 => 2
3 => 3
4 => 1

To answer your specific question more directly, to create an array populated with a bunch of zeroes, you can use the technique in these two examples:

my @zeroes = (0) x 5;            # (0,0,0,0,0)

my @zeroes = (0) x @other_array; # A zero for each item in @other_array.
                                 # This works because in scalar context
                                 # an array evaluates to its size.

$('#dropdown_id').find('option').length

I had the same issue. For me it helped to remove the .vs directory in the project folder.

This worked for me.

SSH into your production server and cd into your current directory, run bundle exec rake secret or rake secret, you will get a long string as an output, copy that string.

Now run sudo nano /etc/environment.

Paste at the bottom of the file

export SECRET_KEY_BASE=rake secret
ruby -e 'p ENV["SECRET_KEY_BASE"]'

Where rake secret is the string you just copied, paste that copied string in place of rake secret.

Restart the server and test by running echo $SECRET_KEY_BASE.

I recently had to create a button that would download a json file of all values of a large form. I needed this to work with IE/Edge/Chrome. This is what I did:

function download(text, name, type)
    {
        var file = new Blob([text], {type: type});
        var isIE = /*@cc_on!@*/false || !!document.documentMode;
        if (isIE)
        {
            window.navigator.msSaveOrOpenBlob(file, name);
        }
        else
        {
            var a = document.createElement('a');
            a.href = URL.createObjectURL(file);
            a.download = name;
            a.click();

There was one issue with filename and extension in edge but at the time of writing this seemed to be a bug with Edge that is due to be fixed.

Hope this helps someone

First of all, I need to say that sample from Sionnach733 worked flawlessly. Some users complain about absent of actual examples. Here is my two cents. I've been working on mouse click simulation when using this site: https://www.youtube.com/tv. You can open any video and try run this code. It performs switch to next video.

function triggerEvent(el, type, keyCode) {
    if ('createEvent' in document) {
            // modern browsers, IE9+
            var e = document.createEvent('HTMLEvents');
            e.keyCode = keyCode;
            e.initEvent(type, false, true);
            el.dispatchEvent(e);
    } else {
        // IE 8
        var e = document.createEventObject();
        e.keyCode = keyCode;
        e.eventType = type;
        el.fireEvent('on'+e.eventType, e);
    }
}

var nextButton = document.getElementsByClassName('icon-player-next')[0];
triggerEvent(nextButton, 'keyup', 13); // simulate mouse/enter key press

If someone is using column names like "key" or "value", then you still see the same error that your mysql query syntax is bad. This should fix:

.where("`key` LIKE ?", "%#{key}%")

for the ones using python:

import torch, gc
gc.collect()
torch.cuda.empty_cache()

The accepted answer here does not mention a fact that if you have a null string ToLower() will throw an exception. The safer way would be to do:

fi => (fi.DESCRIPTION ?? string.Empty).ToLower().Contains((description ?? string.Empty).ToLower())

use the following code to apply some margin

$(".button").click(function() {
  $('html, body').animate({
    scrollTop: $(".scrolltothis").offset().top + 50;
  }, 500);
});

See this ans: Scroll down to div + a certain margin

I really don't know what was so hard about this question, but I managed to do it this way:

[myStringContainingInt intValue];

It should be noted that you can also do:

myStringContainingInt.intValue;

So, the answers here are all a bit incomplete. The use of a '%20' to encode a space in URLs is explicitly defined in RFC3986, which defines how a URI is built. There is no mention in this specification of using a '+' for encoding spaces - if you go solely by this specification, a space must be encoded as '%20'.

The mention of using '+' for encoding spaces comes from the various incarnations of the HTML specification - specifically in the section describing content type 'application/x-www-form-urlencoded'. This is used for posting form data.

Now, the HTML 2.0 Specification (RFC1866) explicitly said, in section 8.2.2, that the Query part of a GET request's URL string should be encoded as 'application/x-www-form-urlencoded'. This, in theory, suggests that it's legal to use a '+' in the URL in the query string (after the '?').

But... does it really? Remember, HTML is itself a content specification, and URLs with query strings can be used with content other than HTML. Further, while the later versions of the HTML spec continue to define '+' as legal in 'application/x-www-form-urlencoded' content, they completely omit the part saying that GET request query strings are defined as that type. There is, in fact, no mention whatsoever about the query string encoding in anything after the HTML 2.0 spec.

Which leaves us with the question - is it valid? Certainly there's a LOT of legacy code which supports '+' in query strings, and a lot of code which generates it as well. So odds are good you won't break if you use '+'. (And, in fact, I did all the research on this recently because I discovered a major site which failed to accept '%20' in a GET query as a space. They actually failed to decode ANY percent encoded character. So the service you're using may be relevant as well.)

But from a pure reading of the specifications, without the language from the HTML 2.0 specification carried over into later versions, URLs are covered entirely by RFC3986, which means spaces ought to be converted to '%20'. And definitely that should be the case if you are requesting anything other than an HTML document.

Warning! SQL Server 14 Express, SQL Server Management Studio, and SQL 2014 LocalDB are separate downloads, make sure you actually installed SQL Server and not just the Management Studio! SQL Server 14 express with LocalDB download link

Youtube video about entire process.
Writeup with pictures about installing SQL Server

How to select a local server:

When you are asked to connect to a 'database server' right when you open up SQL Server Management Studio do this:

1) Make sure you have Server Type: Database

2) Make sure you have Authentication: Windows Authentication (no username & password)

3) For the server name field look to the right and select the drop down arrow, click 'browse for more'

4) New window pops up 'Browse for Servers', make sure to pick 'Local Servers' tab and under 'Database Engine' you will have the local server you set up during installation of SQL Server 14

How do I create a local database inside of Microsoft SQL Server 2014?

1) After you have connected to a server, bring up the Object Explorer toolbar under 'View' (Should open by default)

2) Now simply right click on 'Databases' and then 'Create new Database' to be taken through the database creation tools!

I guess the problem is your js runs before the html is loaded.

If you are using jquery, you can use the document ready function to wrap your code:

$(function() {
    var Grid = function(width, height) {
        // codes...
    }
});

Or simply put your js after the <canvas>.

I have found that creating a var to hold the WebElement and the call the sendKeys() works for me.

WebElement speedCurrentCell = driver.findElement(By.id("Speed_current"));
speedCurrentCell.sendKeys("1300");

Slightly easier - use the new-timespan cmdlet, which creates a time interval from the current time.

ls | where-object {(new-timespan $_.LastWriteTime).days -ge 1}

shows all files not written to today.

Use an NSDateFormatter to convert string1 into an NSDate, then get the required NSDateComponents:

Obj-C:

NSDateFormatter *dateFormatter = [[NSDateFormatter alloc] init];
[dateFormatter setDateFormat:@"<your date format goes here"];
NSDate *date = [dateFormatter dateFromString:string1];
NSCalendar *calendar = [NSCalendar currentCalendar];
NSDateComponents *components = [calendar components:(NSCalendarUnitHour | NSCalendarUnitMinute) fromDate:date];
NSInteger hour = [components hour];
NSInteger minute = [components minute];

Swift 1 and 2:

let dateFormatter = NSDateFormatter()
dateFormatter.dateFormat = "Your date Format"
let date = dateFormatter.dateFromString(string1)
let calendar = NSCalendar.currentCalendar()
let comp = calendar.components([.Hour, .Minute], fromDate: date)
let hour = comp.hour
let minute = comp.minute

Swift 3:

let dateFormatter = DateFormatter()
dateFormatter.dateFormat = "Your date Format"
let date = dateFormatter.date(from: string1)
let calendar = Calendar.current
let comp = calendar.dateComponents([.hour, .minute], from: date)
let hour = comp.hour
let minute = comp.minute

More about the dateformat is on the official unicode site

This happened with me when I copied a project code from one laptop to another one and tried running the project. What fixed this for me was:

1. Delete the project's build folder
2. Clean Project
3. Build project
4. Run

You can use the OpenSSL Command line tool. The following commands should do the trick

openssl pkcs12 -in client_ssl.pfx -out client_ssl.pem -clcerts

openssl pkcs12 -in client_ssl.pfx -out root.pem -cacerts

If you want your file to be password protected etc, then there are additional options.

The browser cannot give access to 3rd party cookies like those received from ajax requests for security reasons, however it takes care of those automatically for you!

For this to work you need to:

1) login with the ajax request from which you expect cookies to be returned:

$.ajax("https://example.com/v2/login", {
     method: 'POST',
     data: {login_id: user, password: password},
     crossDomain: true,
     success: login_success,
     error: login_error
  });

2) Connect with xhrFields: { withCredentials: true } in the next ajax request(s) to use the credentials saved by the browser

$.ajax("https://example.com/v2/whatever", {
     method: 'GET',
     xhrFields: { withCredentials: true },
     crossDomain: true,
     success: whatever_success,
     error: whatever_error
  });

The browser takes care of these cookies for you even though they are not readable from the headers nor the document.cookie

Its always better to go for a generic reusable function in your project which returns whether the extension loaded. You can use the following function to check -

function isExtensionLoaded($extension_name){
    return extension_loaded($extension_name);
}

Usage

echo isExtensionLoaded('curl');
echo isExtensionLoaded('gd');

        try{ 
int year = Integer.parseInt(new Date().toString().split("-")[0]); 
} 
catch(NumberFormatException e){
}

Much of Date is deprecated.

Even high-precision decimal types can't save the day:

declare @num1 numeric(38,22)
declare @num2 numeric(38,22)
set @num1 = .0000006
set @num2 = 1.0
select @num1 * @num2 * 1000000

1.000000 <- Should be 0.6000000

The money types are integers

The text representations of smallmoney and decimal(10,4) may look alike, but that doesn't make them interchangeable. Do you cringe when you see dates stored as varchar(10)? This is the same thing.

Behind the scenes, money/smallmoney are just a bigint/int The decimal point in the text representation of money is visual fluff, just like the dashes in a yyyy-mm-dd date. SQL doesn't actually store those internally.

Regarding decimal vs money, pick whatever is appropriate for your needs. The money types exist because storing accounting values as integer multiples of 1/10000th of unit is very common. Also, if you are dealing with actual money and calculations beyond simple addition and subtraction, you shouldn't be doing that at the database level! Do it at the application level with a library that supports Banker's Rounding (IEEE 754)

Just for posterity, here's the text from several external sources regarding the Excel file formats. Some of these have been mentioned in other answers to this question but without reproducing the essential content.

1. From Doug Mahugh, August 22, 2006:

...the new XLSB binary format. Like Open XML, it’s a full-fidelity file format that can store anything you can create in Excel, but the XLSB format is optimized for performance in ways that aren’t possible with a pure XML format.

The XLSB format (also sometimes referred to as BIFF12, as in “binary file format for Office 12”) uses the same Open Packaging Convention used by the Open XML formats and XPS. So it’s basically a ZIP container, and you can open it with any ZIP tool to see what’s inside. But instead of .XML parts within the package, you’ll find .BIN parts...

This article also refers to documentation about the BIN format, too lengthy to reproduce here.

2. From MSDN Archive, August 29, 2006 which in turn cites an already-missing blog post regarding the XLSB format:

Even though we’ve done a lot of work to make sure that our XML formats open quickly and efficiently, this binary format is still more efficient for Excel to open and save, and can lead to some performance improvements for workbooks that contain a lot of data, or that would require a lot of XML parsing during the Open process. (In fact, we’ve found that the new binary format is faster than the old XLS format in many cases.) Also, there is no macro-free version of this file format – all XLSB files can contain macros (VBA and XLM). In all other respects, it is functionally equivalent to the XML file format above:

File size – file size of both formats is approximately the same, since both formats are saved to disk using zip compression Architecture – both formats use the same packaging structure, and both have the same part-level structures. Feature support – both formats support exactly the same feature set Runtime performance – once loaded into memory, the file format has no effect on application/calculation speed Converters – both formats will have identical converter support

Assuming you are using this plugin, you are misusing the .set method. .set must be passed the name of the key as a string as well as the value. I suppose you meant to write:

$.session.set("userName", $("#uname").val());

This sets the userName key in session storage to the value of the input, and allows you to retrieve it using:

$.session.get('userName');

When you use toFixed, it always returns the value as a string. This sometimes complicates the code. To avoid that, you can make an alternative method for Number.

Number.prototype.round = function(p) {
  p = p || 10;
  return parseFloat( this.toFixed(p) );
};

and use:

var n = 22 / 7; // 3.142857142857143
n.round(3); // 3.143

or simply:

(22/7).round(3); // 3.143

$('#container').clone().wrapAll("<div/>").parent().html();

Update: outerHTML works on firefox now so use the other answer unless you need to support very old versions of firefox

There is a better way to do this. Use the concat Method. Example

declare a global variable. this works good on angular 10, just pass it to Vanilla JavaScript. Example:

HTML

<input id="edValue" type="text" onKeyPress="edValueKeyPress($event)"><br>
<span id="lblValue">The text box contains: </span>

CODE

emptyString = ''

edValueKeyPress ($event){
   this.emptyString = this.emptyString.concat($event.key);
   console.log(this.emptyString);
}

sp_change_users_login is deprecated.

Much easier is:

ALTER USER usr1 WITH LOGIN = login1;

You can change the .ini file for the new AVD:

target=android-7

I don't know how to specify where the .ini file should be stored :)

No need to use a macro. Supposing your first string is in A1.

=RIGHT(A1, 4)

Drag this down and you will get your four last characters.

Edit: To be sure, if you ever have sequences like 'ABC DEF' and want the last four LETTERS and not CHARACTERS you might want to use trimspaces()

=RIGHT(TRIMSPACES(A1), 4)

Edit: As per brettdj's suggestion, you may want to check that your string is actually 4-character long or more:

=IF(TRIMSPACES(A1)>=4, RIGHT(TRIMSPACES(A1), 4), TRIMSPACES(A1))

There are 2 errors is this code:

1) You should remove this line, as it will reqrite x to an empty list:

x = []

2) In the first "if" statement, you should indent the "letter += 1" statement, like:

if x[i].isalpha():
    letters += 1

I needed to adapt this to

error_reporting = E_ALL & ~E_DEPRECATED

(d means decimal, b means binary)

1. 12.25d is your float.
2. You write 12d in binary and remove it from your float. Only the remainder (.25d) will be left.
3. You write the dot.
4. While the remainder (0.25d) is not zero (and/or you want more digits), multiply it with 2 (-> 0.50d), remove and write the digit left of the dot (0), and continue with the new remainder (.50d).

In case anyone else is stuck with this: it just means the write permissions are wrong in the repo that you’re pushing to. Go and chmod -R it so that the user you’re accessing the git server with has write access.

It just works.

You don't need to do special things in the form. You just build the comment correctly in the show action:

class ArticlesController < ActionController::Base
  ....
  def show
    @article = Article.find(params[:id])
    @new_comment = @article.comments.build
  end
  ....
end

and then make a form for it in the article view:

<% form_for @new_comment do |f| %>
   <%= f.text_area :text %>
   <%= f.submit "Post Comment" %>
<% end %>

by default, this comment will go to the create action of CommentsController, which you will then probably want to put redirect :back into so you're routed back to the Article page.

You can use a well tested Java minifier like HTMLCompressor by invoking it using passthru (exec).
Remember to redirect console using 2>&1

This however may not be useful, if speed is a concern. I use it for static php output

You can access values in the $_POST array by their key. $_POST is an associative array, so to access taskOption you would use $_POST['taskOption'];.

Make sure to check if it exists in the $_POST array before proceeding though.

<form method="post" action="process.php">
  <select name="taskOption">
    <option value="first">First</option>
    <option value="second">Second</option>
    <option value="third">Third</option>
  </select>
  <input type="submit" value="Submit the form"/>
</form>

process.php

<?php
   $option = isset($_POST['taskOption']) ? $_POST['taskOption'] : false;
   if ($option) {
      echo htmlentities($_POST['taskOption'], ENT_QUOTES, "UTF-8");
   } else {
     echo "task option is required";
     exit; 
   }

I will add my answer since I don't use any of the other answers provided.

With the Support Library v7, all the styles are actually already defined and ready to use, for the standard buttons, all of these styles are available:

style="@style/Widget.AppCompat.Button"
style="@style/Widget.AppCompat.Button.Colored"
style="@style/Widget.AppCompat.Button.Borderless"
style="@style/Widget.AppCompat.Button.Borderless.Colored"

Widget.AppCompat.Button:

Widget.AppCompat.Button.Colored:

Widget.AppCompat.Button.Borderless

Widget.AppCompat.Button.Borderless.Colored:

To answer the question, the style to use is therefore

<Button style="@style/Widget.AppCompat.Button.Colored"
.......
.......
.......
android:text="Button"/>

How to change the color

For the whole app:

The color of all the UI controls (not only buttons, but also floating action buttons, checkboxes etc.) is managed by the attribute colorAccent as explained here. You can modify this style and apply your own color in your theme definition:

<style name="AppTheme" parent="Theme.AppCompat.Light.NoActionBar">
    ...
    <item name="colorAccent">@color/Orange</item>
</style>

For a specific button:

If you need to change the style of a specific button, you can define a new style, inheriting one of the parent styles described above. In the example below I just changed the background and font colors:

<style name="AppTheme.Button" parent="Widget.AppCompat.Button.Colored">
    <item name="colorButtonNormal">@color/Red</item>
    <item name="android:textColor">@color/White</item>
</style>

Then you just need to apply this new style on the button with:

android:theme="@style/AppTheme.Button"

To set a default button design in a layout, add this line to the styles.xml theme:

<item name="buttonStyle">@style/btn</item>

where @style/btn is your button theme. This sets the button style for all the buttons in a layout with a specific theme

If you have just one query I don't know how to set timeout on T-SQL level.

However if you have a few queries (i.e. collecting data into temporary tables) inside stored procedure you can just control time of execution with GETDATE(), DATEDIFF() and a few INT variables storing time of execution of each part.

Regarding a previous answer, setting html and body to height: 100% doesn't seem to work if the content needs to scroll. Adding fixed to the background seems to fix that - no need for height: 100%;

E.g.:

body {_x000D_
  background: -webkit-gradient(linear, left top, left bottom, from(#fff), to(#cbccc8)) fixed;_x000D_
}

I believe there's zero risk running into an exception, because as you can see below you always safely parse int to String and not the other way around.

So:

1. You check if every slot of character in your string matches at least one of the characters {"0","1","2","3","4","5","6","7","8","9"}.

   if(aString.substring(j, j+1).equals(String.valueOf(i)))
   

2. You sum all the times that you encountered in the slots the above characters.

   digits++;
   

3. And finally you check if the times that you encountered integers as characters equals with the length of the given string.

   if(digits == aString.length())
   

And in practice we have:

    String aString = "1234224245";
    int digits = 0;//count how many digits you encountered
    for(int j=0;j<aString.length();j++){
        for(int i=0;i<=9;i++){
            if(aString.substring(j, j+1).equals(String.valueOf(i)))
                    digits++;
        }
    }
    if(digits == aString.length()){
        System.out.println("It's an integer!!");
        }
    else{
        System.out.println("It's not an integer!!");
    }
    
    String anotherString = "1234f22a4245";
    int anotherDigits = 0;//count how many digits you encountered
    for(int j=0;j<anotherString.length();j++){
        for(int i=0;i<=9;i++){
            if(anotherString.substring(j, j+1).equals(String.valueOf(i)))
                    anotherDigits++;
        }
    }
    if(anotherDigits == anotherString.length()){
        System.out.println("It's an integer!!");
        }
    else{
        System.out.println("It's not an integer!!");
    }

And the results are:

It's an integer!!

It's not an integer!!

Similarly, you can validate if a String is a float or a double but in those cases you have to encounter only one . (dot) in the String and of course check if digits == (aString.length()-1)

Again, there's zero risk running into a parsing exception here, but if you plan on parsing a string that it is known that contains a number (let's say int data type) you must first check if it fits in the data type. Otherwise you must cast it.

I hope I helped

If your SQL Server table has a column of type INT IDENTITY (or BIGINT IDENTITY), then you can get the latest inserted value using:

INSERT INTO dbo.YourTable(columns....)
   VALUES(..........)

SELECT SCOPE_IDENTITY()

This works as long as you haven't inserted another row - it just returns the last IDENTITY value handed out in this scope here.

There are at least two more options - @@IDENTITY and IDENT_CURRENT - read more about how they works and in what way they're different (and might give you unexpected results) in this excellent blog post by Pinal Dave here.

Welcome to yet another set of Python 3.x timings, extrapolated from wr.'s excellent Python 2.x-specific response. Unlike AChampion's equally helpful Python 3.x-specific response, the timings below also time outlier solutions suggested above – including:

• list(s)[0], John's novel sequence-based solution.
• random.sample(s, 1), dF.'s eclectic RNG-based solution.

Code Snippets for Great Joy

Turn on, tune in, time it:

from timeit import Timer

stats = [
    "for i in range(1000): \n\tfor x in s: \n\t\tbreak",
    "for i in range(1000): next(iter(s))",
    "for i in range(1000): s.add(s.pop())",
    "for i in range(1000): list(s)[0]",
    "for i in range(1000): random.sample(s, 1)",
]

for stat in stats:
    t = Timer(stat, setup="import random\ns=set(range(100))")
    try:
        print("Time for %s:\t %f"%(stat, t.timeit(number=1000)))
    except:
        t.print_exc()

Quickly Obsoleted Timeless Timings

Behold! Ordered by fastest to slowest snippets:

$ ./test_get.py
Time for for i in range(1000): 
    for x in s: 
        break:   0.249871
Time for for i in range(1000): next(iter(s)):    0.526266
Time for for i in range(1000): s.add(s.pop()):   0.658832
Time for for i in range(1000): list(s)[0]:   4.117106
Time for for i in range(1000): random.sample(s, 1):  21.851104

Faceplants for the Whole Family

Unsurprisingly, manual iteration remains at least twice as fast as the next fastest solution. Although the gap has decreased from the Bad Old Python 2.x days (in which manual iteration was at least four times as fast), it disappoints the PEP 20 zealot in me that the most verbose solution is the best. At least converting a set into a list just to extract the first element of the set is as horrible as expected. Thank Guido, may his light continue to guide us.

Surprisingly, the RNG-based solution is absolutely horrible. List conversion is bad, but random really takes the awful-sauce cake. So much for the Random Number God.

I just wish the amorphous They would PEP up a set.get_first() method for us already. If you're reading this, They: "Please. Do something."

both your conditions are the same:

if(s < f) {     calc = f - s;     n = s; }else if(f > s){     calc =  s - f;     n = f;  } 

so

if(s < f)   

and

}else if(f > s){ 

are the same

change to

}else if(f < s){ 

I am not sure it would read better but you could do the following:

while any((not condition1, not condition2, val == -1)):
    val,something1,something2 = getstuff()

    if something1==10:
        condition1 = True

    if something2==20:
        condition2 = True

Simply use min()

SELECT company, workflow, MIN(date) 
FROM workflowTable 
GROUP BY company, workflow

You may use also

select * from pg_tables where schemaname = 'information_schema'

In generall pg* tables allow you to see everything in the db, not constrained to your permissions (if you have access to the tables of course).

ad 1. It does not implement its methods.

ad 4. The purpose of one interface extending, not implementing another, is to build a more specific interface. For example, SortedMap is an interface that extends Map. A client not interested in the sorting aspect can code against Map and handle all the instances of for example TreeMap, which implements SortedMap. At the same time, another client interested in the sorted aspect can use those same instances through the SortedMap interface.

In your example you are repeating the methods from the superinterface. While legal, it's unnecessary and doesn't change anything in the end result. The compiled code will be exactly the same whether these methods are there or not. Whatever Eclipse's hover says is irrelevant to the basic truth that an interface does not implement anything.

If you are trying to reference a commit in another repo than the issue is in, you can prefix the commit short hash with reponame@.

Suppose your commit is in the repo named dev, and the GitLab issue is in the repo named test. You can leave a comment on the issue and reference the commit by dev@e9c11f0a (where e9c11f0a is the first 8 letters of the sha hash of the commit you want to link to) if that makes sense.
