How to use code to open a modal in Angular 2?

We can use jquery to open bootstrap modal.

ngAfterViewInit() { 
      $('#scanModal').modal('show'); 
}

Rails: How can I rename a database column in a Ruby on Rails migration?

If your code is not shared with other one, then best option is to do just rake db:rollback then edit your column name in migration and rake db:migrate. Thats it

And you can write another migration to rename the column

 def change
    rename_column :table_name, :old_name, :new_name
  end

Thats it.

Bootstrap 3: How to get two form inputs on one line and other inputs on individual lines?

You can code like two input box inside one div

            <span class="input-group-addon"><i class="glyphicon glyphicon-user"></i></span>
            <input style="width:50% " class="form-control " placeholder="first name"  name="firstname" type="text" />
            <input style="width:50% " class="form-control " placeholder="lastname"  name="lastname" type="text" />
        </div>

Importing a GitHub project into Eclipse

I think you need to create a branch before you can import into your local Eclipse, otherwise, there is an error leading to incapable of importing repository from Github or Bitbucket.

What is the parameter "next" used for in Express?

Next is used to pass control to the next middleware function. If not the request will be left hanging or open.

Find and kill a process in one line using bash and regex

if you have pkill,

pkill -f csp_build.py

If you only want to grep against the process name (instead of the full argument list) then leave off -f.

What is a .pid file and what does it contain?

The pid files contains the process id (a number) of a given program. For example, Apache HTTPD may write its main process number to a pid file - which is a regular text file, nothing more than that - and later use the information there contained to stop itself. You can also use that information to kill the process yourself, using cat filename.pid | xargs kill

php variable in html no other way than: <?php echo $var; ?>

I'd advise against using shorttags, see Are PHP short tags acceptable to use? for more information on why.

Personally I don't mind mixing HTML and PHP like so

<a href="<?php echo $link;?>">link description</a>

As long as I have a code-editor with good syntax highlighting, I think this is pretty readable. If you start echoing HTML with PHP then you lose all the advantages of syntax highlighting your HTML. Another disadvantage of echoing HTML is the stuff with the quotes, the following is a lot less readable IMHO.

echo '<a href="'.$link.'">link description</a>';

The biggest advantage for me with simple echoing and simple looping in PHP and doing the rest in HTML is that indentation is consistent, which in the end improves readability/scannability.

Linux command to check if a shell script is running or not

Give an option to ps to display all the processes, an example is:

ps -A | grep "myshellscript.sh"

Check http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/show-all-running-processes-in-linux/ for more info

And as Basile Starynkevitch mentioned in the comment pgrep is another solution.

How do I get the current date and time in PHP?

simply use: date("Y-m-d H:i:s") this will give you your date and time like '2020-08-22 12:20:30' this . add date_default_timezone_set("your time zone") before date() function to get the time date of your area/zone. here you can find you time zone

Download a file by jQuery.Ajax

Use window.open https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Window/open

For example, you can put this line of code in a click handler:

window.open('/file.txt', '_blank');

It will open a new tab (because of the '_blank' window-name) and that tab will open the URL.

Your server-side code should also have something like this:

res.set('Content-Disposition', 'attachment; filename=file.txt');

And that way, the browser should prompt the user to save the file to disk, instead of just showing them the file. It will also automatically close the tab that it just opened.

Understanding [TCP ACKed unseen segment] [TCP Previous segment not captured]

That very well may be a false positive. Like the warning message says, it is common for a capture to start in the middle of a tcp session. In those cases it does not have that information. If you are really missing acks then it is time to start looking upstream from your host for where they are disappearing. It is possible that tshark can not keep up with the data and so it is dropping some metrics. At the end of your capture it will tell you if the "kernel dropped packet" and how many. By default tshark disables dns lookup, tcpdump does not. If you use tcpdump you need to pass in the "-n" switch. If you are having a disk IO issue then you can do something like write to memory /dev/shm. BUT be careful because if your captures get very large then you can cause your machine to start swapping.

My bet is that you have some very long running tcp sessions and when you start your capture you are simply missing some parts of the tcp session due to that. Having said that, here are some of the things that I have seen cause duplicate/missing acks.

Switches - (very unlikely but sometimes they get in a sick state)
Routers - more likely than switches, but not much
Firewall - More likely than routers. Things to look for here are resource exhaustion (license, cpu, etc)
Client side filtering software - antivirus, malware detection etc.

When is it appropriate to use UDP instead of TCP?

I work on a product that supports both UDP (IP) and TCP/IP communication between client and server. It started out with IPX over 15 years ago with IP support added 13 years ago. We added TCP/IP support 3 or 4 years ago. Wild guess coming up: The UDP to TCP code ratio is probably about 80/20. The product is a database server, so reliability is critical. We have to handle all of the issues imposed by UDP (packet loss, packet doubling, packet order, etc.) already mentioned in other answers. There are rarely any problems, but they do sometimes occur and so must be handled. The benefit to supporting UDP is that we are able to customize it a bit to our own usage and tweak a bit more performance out of it.

Every network is going to be different, but the UDP communication protocol is generally a little bit faster for us. The skeptical reader will rightly question whether we implemented everything correctly. Plus, what can you expect from a guy with a 2 digit rep? Nonetheless, I just now ran a test out of curiosity. The test read 1 million records (select * from sometable). I set the number of records to return with each individual client request to be 1, 10, and then 100 (three test runs with each protocol). The server was only two hops away over a 100Mbit LAN. The numbers seemed to agree with what others have found in the past (UDP is about 5% faster in most situations). The total times in milliseconds were as follows for this particular test:

1 record
- IP: 390,760 ms
- TCP: 416,903 ms
10 records
- IP: 91,707 ms
- TCP: 95,662 ms
100 records
- IP: 29,664 ms
- TCP: 30,968 ms

The total data amount transmitted was about the same for both IP and TCP. We have extra overhead with the UDP communications because we have some of the same stuff that you get for "free" with TCP/IP (checksums, sequence numbers, etc.). For example, Wireshark showed that a request for the next set of records was 80 bytes with UDP and 84 bytes with TCP.

How to AUTO_INCREMENT in db2?

hi If you are still not able to make column as AUTO_INCREMENT while creating table. As a work around first create table that is:

create table student( sid integer NOT NULL sname varchar(30), PRIMARY KEY (sid) );

and then explicitly try to alter column bu using the following

alter table student alter column sid set GENERATED BY DEFAULT AS IDENTITY

Or

alter table student alter column sid set GENERATED BY DEFAULT AS IDENTITY (start with 100)

Windows Batch Files: if else

An alternative would be to set a variable, and check whether it is defined:

IF DEFINED ARG (echo "It is defined: %1") ELSE (echo "%%1 is not defined")

Unfortunately, using %1 directly with DEFINED doesn't work.

How can I INSERT data into two tables simultaneously in SQL Server?

Another option is to run the two inserts separately, leaving the FK column null, then running an update to poulate it correctly.

If there is nothing natural stored within the two tables that match from one record to another (likely) then create a temporary GUID column and populate this in your data and insert to both fields. Then you can update with the proper FK and null out the GUIDs.

E.g.:

CREATE TABLE [dbo].[table1] ( 
    [id] [int] IDENTITY(1,1) NOT NULL, 
    [data] [varchar](255) NOT NULL, 
    CONSTRAINT [PK_table1] PRIMARY KEY CLUSTERED ([id] ASC),
    JoinGuid UniqueIdentifier NULL
) 

CREATE TABLE [dbo].[table2] ( 
    [id] [int] IDENTITY(1,1) NOT NULL, 
    [table1_id] [int] NULL, 
    [data] [varchar](255) NOT NULL, 
    CONSTRAINT [PK_table2] PRIMARY KEY CLUSTERED ([id] ASC),
    JoinGuid UniqueIdentifier NULL
) 


INSERT INTO Table1....

INSERT INTO Table2....

UPDATE b
SET table1_id = a.id
FROM Table1 a
JOIN Table2 b on a.JoinGuid = b.JoinGuid
WHERE b.table1_id IS NULL

UPDATE Table1 SET JoinGuid = NULL
UPDATE Table2 SET JoinGuid = NULL

How to use sys.exit() in Python

sys.exit() raises a SystemExit exception which you are probably assuming as some error. If you want your program not to raise SystemExit but return gracefully, you can wrap your functionality in a function and return from places you are planning to use sys.exit

How to unzip a list of tuples into individual lists?

Use zip(*list):

>>> l = [(1,2), (3,4), (8,9)]
>>> list(zip(*l))
[(1, 3, 8), (2, 4, 9)]

The zip() function pairs up the elements from all inputs, starting with the first values, then the second, etc. By using *l you apply all tuples in l as separate arguments to the zip() function, so zip() pairs up 1 with 3 with 8 first, then 2 with 4 and 9. Those happen to correspond nicely with the columns, or the transposition of l.

zip() produces tuples; if you must have mutable list objects, just map() the tuples to lists or use a list comprehension to produce a list of lists:

map(list, zip(*l))          # keep it a generator
[list(t) for t in zip(*l)]  # consume the zip generator into a list of lists

Appropriate datatype for holding percent values?

Hold as a decimal.
Add check constraints if you want to limit the range (e.g. between 0 to 100%; in some cases there may be valid reasons to go beyond 100% or potentially even into the negatives).
Treat value 1 as 100%, 0.5 as 50%, etc. This will allow any math operations to function as expected (i.e. as opposed to using value 100 as 100%).
Amend precision and scale as required (these are the two values in brackets columnName decimal(precision, scale). Precision says the total number of digits that can be held in the number, scale says how many of those are after the decimal place, so decimal(3,2) is a number which can be represented as #.##; decimal(5,3) would be ##.###.
decimal and numeric are essentially the same thing. However decimal is ANSI compliant, so always use that unless told otherwise (e.g. by your company's coding standards).

Example Scenarios

For your case (0.00% to 100.00%) you'd want decimal(5,4).
For the most common case (0% to 100%) you'd want decimal(3,2).
In both of the above, the check constraints would be the same

Example:

if object_id('Demo') is null
create table Demo
    (
        Id bigint not null identity(1,1) constraint pk_Demo primary key
        , Name nvarchar(256) not null constraint uk_Demo unique 
        , SomePercentValue decimal(3,2) constraint chk_Demo_SomePercentValue check (SomePercentValue between 0 and 1)
        , SomePrecisionPercentValue decimal(5,2) constraint chk_Demo_SomePrecisionPercentValue check (SomePrecisionPercentValue between 0 and 1)
    )

How Should I Declare Foreign Key Relationships Using Code First Entity Framework (4.1) in MVC3?

If you have an Order class, adding a property that references another class in your model, for instance Customer should be enough to let EF know there's a relationship in there:

public class Order
{
    public int ID { get; set; }

    // Some other properties

    // Foreign key to customer
    public virtual Customer Customer { get; set; }
}

You can always set the FK relation explicitly:

public class Order
{
    public int ID { get; set; }

    // Some other properties

    // Foreign key to customer
    [ForeignKey("Customer")]
    public string CustomerID { get; set; }
    public virtual Customer Customer { get; set; }
}

The ForeignKeyAttribute constructor takes a string as a parameter: if you place it on a foreign key property it represents the name of the associated navigation property. If you place it on the navigation property it represents the name of the associated foreign key.

What this means is, if you where to place the ForeignKeyAttribute on the Customer property, the attribute would take CustomerID in the constructor:

public string CustomerID { get; set; }
[ForeignKey("CustomerID")]
public virtual Customer Customer { get; set; }

EDIT based on Latest Code You get that error because of this line:

[ForeignKey("Parent")]
public Patient Patient { get; set; }

EF will look for a property called Parent to use it as the Foreign Key enforcer. You can do 2 things:

1) Remove the ForeignKeyAttribute and replace it with the RequiredAttribute to mark the relation as required:

[Required]
public virtual Patient Patient { get; set; }

Decorating a property with the RequiredAttribute also has a nice side effect: The relation in the database is created with ON DELETE CASCADE.

I would also recommend making the property virtual to enable Lazy Loading.

2) Create a property called Parent that will serve as a Foreign Key. In that case it probably makes more sense to call it for instance ParentID (you'll need to change the name in the ForeignKeyAttribute as well):

public int ParentID { get; set; }

In my experience in this case though it works better to have it the other way around:

[ForeignKey("Patient")]
public int ParentID { get; set; }

public virtual Patient Patient { get; set; }

Python strftime - date without leading 0?

Because Python really just calls the C language strftime(3) function on your platform, it might be that there are format characters you could use to control the leading zero; try man strftime and take a look. But, of course, the result will not be portable, as the Python manual will remind you. :-)

I would try using a new-style datetime object instead, which has attributes like t.year and t.month and t.day, and put those through the normal, high-powered formatting of the % operator, which does support control of leading zeros. See http://docs.python.org/library/datetime.html for details. Better yet, use the "".format() operator if your Python has it and be even more modern; it has lots of format options for numbers as well. See: http://docs.python.org/library/string.html#string-formatting.

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

stata.replace<-function(data,replacevar,replacevalue,ifs) {

  x=sum(yy)
  data=cbind(data,yy)
  data[yy==1,replacevar]=replacevalue
  message=noquote(paste0(x, " replacement are made"))

Call this function using below line.

ORA-12154 could not resolve the connect identifier specified

I had the same issue. In my case I was using a web service which was build using AnyCPU settings. Since the WCF was using 32 bit Oracle data access components therefore it was raising the same error when I tried to call it from a console client. So when I compiled the WCF service using the x86 based setting the client was able to successfully get data from the web service.

If you compile as "Any CPU" and run on an x64 platform, then you won't be able to load 32-bit dlls (which in our case were the Oracle Data Access components), because our app wasn't started in WOW64 (Windows32 on Windows 64). So in order to allow the 32 bit dependency of Oracle Data Access components I compilee the web service with Platform target of x86 and that solved it for me

As an alternative if you have 64bit ODAC drivers installed on the machine that also caused the problem to go away.

How do I get the dialer to open with phone number displayed?

As @ashishduh mentioned above, using android:autoLink="phone is also a good solution. But this option comes with one drawback, it doesn't work with all phone number lengths. For instance, a phone number of 11 numbers won't work with this option. The solution is to prefix your phone numbers with the country code.

Example:

How to split the screen with two equal LinearLayouts?

To Split a layout to equal parts

Use Layout Weights. Keep in mind that it is important to set layout_width as 0dp on children to make it work as intended.

on parent layout:

Set weightSum of parent Layout as 1 (android:weightSum="1")

on the child layout:

Set layout_width as 0dp (android:layout_width="0dp")
Set layout_weight as 0.5 [half of weight sum fr equal two] (android:layout_weight="0.5")

To split layout to three equal parts:

parent: weightSum 3
child: layout_weight: 1

To split layout to four equal parts:

parent: weightSum 1
child: layout_weight: 0.25

To split layout to n equal parts:

parent: weightSum n

child: layout_weight: 1

To check if string contains particular word

It's been correctly pointed out above that finding a given word in a sentence is not the same as finding the charsequence, and can be done as follows if you don't want to mess around with regular expressions.

boolean checkWordExistence(String word, String sentence) {
    if (sentence.contains(word)) {
        int start = sentence.indexOf(word);
        int end = start + word.length();

        boolean valid_left = ((start == 0) || (sentence.charAt(start - 1) == ' '));
        boolean valid_right = ((end == sentence.length()) || (sentence.charAt(end) == ' '));

        return valid_left && valid_right;
    }
    return false;
}

Output:

checkWordExistence("the", "the earth is our planet"); true
checkWordExistence("ear", "the earth is our planet"); false
checkWordExistence("earth", "the earth is our planet"); true

P.S Make sure you have filtered out any commas or full stops beforehand.

C Program to find day of week given date

Here's a C99 version based on wikipedia's article about Julian Day

#include <stdio.h>

const char *wd(int year, int month, int day) {
  /* using C99 compound literals in a single line: notice the splicing */
  return ((const char *[])                                         \
          {"Monday", "Tuesday", "Wednesday",                       \
           "Thursday", "Friday", "Saturday", "Sunday"})[           \
      (                                                            \
          day                                                      \
        + ((153 * (month + 12 * ((14 - month) / 12) - 3) + 2) / 5) \
        + (365 * (year + 4800 - ((14 - month) / 12)))              \
        + ((year + 4800 - ((14 - month) / 12)) / 4)                \
        - ((year + 4800 - ((14 - month) / 12)) / 100)              \
        + ((year + 4800 - ((14 - month) / 12)) / 400)              \
        - 32045                                                    \
      ) % 7];
}

int main(void) {
  printf("%d-%02d-%02d: %s\n", 2011, 5, 19, wd(2011, 5, 19));
  printf("%d-%02d-%02d: %s\n", 2038, 1, 19, wd(2038, 1, 19));
  return 0;
}

By removing the splicing and spaces from the return line in the wd() function, it can be compacted to a 286 character single line :)

        rd.on('error', err => reject(err));
        const wr = FileSystem.createWriteStream(target);

Print very long string completely in pandas dataframe

The way I often deal with the situation you describe is to use the .to_csv() method and write to stdout:

import sys

df.to_csv(sys.stdout)

Update: it should now be possible to just use None instead of sys.stdout with similar effect!

This should dump the whole dataframe, including the entirety of any strings. You can use the to_csv parameters to configure column separators, whether the index is printed, etc. It will be less pretty than rendering it properly though.

How to pattern match using regular expression in Scala?

Note that the approach from @AndrewMyers's answer matches the entire string to the regular expression, with the effect of anchoring the regular expression at both ends of the string using ^ and $. Example:

scala> val MY_RE = "(foo|bar).*".r
MY_RE: scala.util.matching.Regex = (foo|bar).*

scala> val result = "foo123" match { case MY_RE(m) => m; case _ => "No match" }
result: String = foo

scala> val result = "baz123" match { case MY_RE(m) => m; case _ => "No match" }
result: String = No match

scala> val result = "abcfoo123" match { case MY_RE(m) => m; case _ => "No match" }
result: String = No match

And with no .* at the end:

scala> val MY_RE2 = "(foo|bar)".r
MY_RE2: scala.util.matching.Regex = (foo|bar)

scala> val result = "foo123" match { case MY_RE2(m) => m; case _ => "No match" }
result: String = No match

Adding system header search path to Xcode

Though this question has an answer, I resolved it differently when I had the same issue. I had this issue when I copied folders with the option Create Folder references; then the above solution of adding the folder to the build_path worked. But when the folder was added using the Create groups for any added folder option, the headers were picked up automatically.

php $_GET and undefined index

I always use a utility function/class for reading from the $_GET and $_POST arrays to avoid having to always check the index exists... Something like this will do the trick.

class Input {
function get($name) {
    return isset($_GET[$name]) ? $_GET[$name] : null;
}

function post($name) {
    return isset($_POST[$name]) ? $_POST[$name] : null;
}

function get_post($name) {
    return $this->get($name) ? $this->get($name) : $this->post($name);
}
}
$input = new Input;
$page = $input->get_post('page');

JFrame.dispose() vs System.exit()

JFrame.dispose() affects only to this frame (release all of the native screen resources used by this component, its subcomponents, and all children). System.exit() affects to entire JVM.

If you want to close all JFrame or all Window (since Frames extend Windows) to terminate the application in an ordered mode, you can do some like this:

Arrays.asList(Window.getWindows()).forEach(e -> e.dispose()); // or JFrame.getFrames()

NULL values inside NOT IN clause

It may be concluded from answers here that NOT IN (subquery) doesn't handle nulls correctly and should be avoided in favour of NOT EXISTS. However, such a conclusion may be premature. In the following scenario, credited to Chris Date (Database Programming and Design, Vol 2 No 9, September 1989), it is NOT IN that handles nulls correctly and returns the correct result, rather than NOT EXISTS.

Consider a table sp to represent suppliers (sno) who are known to supply parts (pno) in quantity (qty). The table currently holds the following values:

      VALUES ('S1', 'P1', NULL), 
             ('S2', 'P1', 200),
             ('S3', 'P1', 1000)

Note that quantity is nullable i.e. to be able to record the fact a supplier is known to supply parts even if it is not known in what quantity.

The task is to find the suppliers who are known supply part number 'P1' but not in quantities of 1000.

The following uses NOT IN to correctly identify supplier 'S2' only:

WITH sp AS 
     ( SELECT * 
         FROM ( VALUES ( 'S1', 'P1', NULL ), 
                       ( 'S2', 'P1', 200 ),
                       ( 'S3', 'P1', 1000 ) )
              AS T ( sno, pno, qty )
     )
SELECT DISTINCT spx.sno
  FROM sp spx
 WHERE spx.pno = 'P1'
       AND 1000 NOT IN (
                        SELECT spy.qty
                          FROM sp spy
                         WHERE spy.sno = spx.sno
                               AND spy.pno = 'P1'
                       );

However, the below query uses the same general structure but with NOT EXISTS but incorrectly includes supplier 'S1' in the result (i.e. for which the quantity is null):

WITH sp AS 
     ( SELECT * 
         FROM ( VALUES ( 'S1', 'P1', NULL ), 
                       ( 'S2', 'P1', 200 ),
                       ( 'S3', 'P1', 1000 ) )
              AS T ( sno, pno, qty )
     )
SELECT DISTINCT spx.sno
  FROM sp spx
 WHERE spx.pno = 'P1'
       AND NOT EXISTS (
                       SELECT *
                         FROM sp spy
                        WHERE spy.sno = spx.sno
                              AND spy.pno = 'P1'
                              AND spy.qty = 1000
                      );

So NOT EXISTS is not the silver bullet it may have appeared!

Of course, source of the problem is the presence of nulls, therefore the 'real' solution is to eliminate those nulls.

This can be achieved (among other possible designs) using two tables:

sp suppliers known to supply parts
spq suppliers known to supply parts in known quantities

noting there should probably be a foreign key constraint where spq references sp.

The result can then be obtained using the 'minus' relational operator (being the EXCEPT keyword in Standard SQL) e.g.

WITH sp AS 
     ( SELECT * 
         FROM ( VALUES ( 'S1', 'P1' ), 
                       ( 'S2', 'P1' ),
                       ( 'S3', 'P1' ) )
              AS T ( sno, pno )
     ),
     spq AS 
     ( SELECT * 
         FROM ( VALUES ( 'S2', 'P1', 200 ),
                       ( 'S3', 'P1', 1000 ) )
              AS T ( sno, pno, qty )
     )
SELECT sno
  FROM spq
 WHERE pno = 'P1'
EXCEPT 
SELECT sno
  FROM spq
 WHERE pno = 'P1'
       AND qty = 1000;

Deep copy vs Shallow Copy

Shallow copy:

Some members of the copy may reference the same objects as the original:

class X
{
private:
    int i;
    int *pi;
public:
    X()
        : pi(new int)
    { }
    X(const X& copy)   // <-- copy ctor
        : i(copy.i), pi(copy.pi)
    { }
};

Here, the pi member of the original and copied X object will both point to the same int.

Deep copy:

All members of the original are cloned (recursively, if necessary). There are no shared objects:

class X
{
private:
    int i;
    int *pi;
public:
    X()
        : pi(new int)
    { }
    X(const X& copy)   // <-- copy ctor
        : i(copy.i), pi(new int(*copy.pi))  // <-- note this line in particular!
    { }
};

Here, the pi member of the original and copied X object will point to different int objects, but both of these have the same value.

~~_{The default copy constructor (which is automatically provided if you don't provide one yourself) creates only shallow copies.}~~

Correction: Several comments below have correctly pointed out that it is wrong to say that the default copy constructor always performs a shallow copy (or a deep copy, for that matter). Whether a type's copy constructor creates a shallow copy, or deep copy, or something in-between the two, depends on the combination of each member's copy behaviour; a member's type's copy constructor can be made to do whatever it wants, after all.

Here's what section 12.8, paragraph 8 of the 1998 C++ standard says about the above code examples:

The implicitly defined copy constructor for class X performs a memberwise copy of its subobjects. [...] Each subobject is copied in the manner appropriate to its type: [...] [I]f the subobject is of scalar type, the builtin assignment operator is used.

How do I get an element to scroll into view, using jQuery?

Since you want to know how it works, I'll explain it step-by-step.

First you want to bind a function as the image's click handler:

$('#someImage').click(function () {
    // Code to do scrolling happens here
});

That will apply the click handler to an image with id="someImage". If you want to do this to all images, replace '#someImage' with 'img'.

Now for the actual scrolling code:

Get the image offsets (relative to the document):

var offset = $(this).offset(); // Contains .top and .left

Subtract 20 from top and left:
```
offset.left -= 20;
offset.top -= 20;
```

Now animate the scroll-top and scroll-left CSS properties of <body> and <html>:

$('html, body').animate({
    scrollTop: offset.top,
    scrollLeft: offset.left
});

ThreadStart with parameters

You can use the BackgroundWorker RunWorkerAsync method and pass in your value.

Find duplicate entries in a column

Using:

  SELECT t.ctn_no
    FROM YOUR_TABLE t
GROUP BY t.ctn_no
  HAVING COUNT(t.ctn_no) > 1

...will show you the ctn_no value(s) that have duplicates in your table. Adding criteria to the WHERE will allow you to further tune what duplicates there are:

  SELECT t.ctn_no
    FROM YOUR_TABLE t
   WHERE t.s_ind = 'Y'
GROUP BY t.ctn_no
  HAVING COUNT(t.ctn_no) > 1

If you want to see the other column values associated with the duplicate, you'll want to use a self join:

SELECT x.*
  FROM YOUR_TABLE x
  JOIN (SELECT t.ctn_no
          FROM YOUR_TABLE t
      GROUP BY t.ctn_no
        HAVING COUNT(t.ctn_no) > 1) y ON y.ctn_no = x.ctn_no

How do I read an image file using Python?

The word "read" is vague, but here is an example which reads a jpeg file using the Image class, and prints information about it.

Load a WPF BitmapImage from a System.Drawing.Bitmap

Thanks to Hallgrim, here is the code I ended up with:

ScreenCapture = System.Windows.Interop.Imaging.CreateBitmapSourceFromHBitmap(
   bmp.GetHbitmap(), 
   IntPtr.Zero, 
   System.Windows.Int32Rect.Empty, 
   BitmapSizeOptions.FromWidthAndHeight(width, height));

I also ended up binding to a BitmapSource instead of a BitmapImage as in my original question

OAuth2 and Google API: access token expiration time?

You shouldn't design your application based on specific lifetimes of access tokens. Just assume they are (very) short lived.

However, after a successful completion of the OAuth2 installed application flow, you will get back a refresh token. This refresh token never expires, and you can use it to exchange it for an access token as needed. Save the refresh tokens, and use them to get access tokens on-demand (which should then immediately be used to get access to user data).

EDIT: My comments above notwithstanding, there are two easy ways to get the access token expiration time:

It is a parameter in the response (expires_in)when you exchange your refresh token (using /o/oauth2/token endpoint). More details.
There is also an API that returns the remaining lifetime of the access_token:

https://www.googleapis.com/oauth2/v1/tokeninfo?access_token={accessToken}

This will return a json array that will contain an expires_in parameter, which is the number of seconds left in the lifetime of the token.

Nothing was returned from render. This usually means a return statement is missing. Or, to render nothing, return null

I got this error message but was a really basic mistake, I had copy/pasted another Component as a template, removed everything from render() then imported it and added it to the parent JSX but hadn't yet renamed the component class. So then the error looked like it was coming from another component which I spent a while trying to debug it before working out it wasn't actually that Component throwing the error! Would have been helpful to have the filename as part of the error message. Hope this helps someone.

Oh a side note note I'm not sure anyone mentioned that returning undefined will throw the error:

render() {
  return this.foo // Where foo is undefined.
}

def rate(T):
    if (T > 200):
        return 200*exp(-T)
    else:
        return 400*exp(-T)

There is absolutely no advantage to using lambda here. The only thing lambda is good for is allowing you to create anonymous functions and use them in an expression (as opposed to a statement). If you immediately assign the lambda to a variable, it's no longer anonymous, and it's used in a statement, so you're just making your code less readable for no reason.

The rate function defined this way can be stored in an array, passed around, called, etc. in exactly the same way a lambda function could. It'll be exactly the same (except a bit easier to debug, introspect, etc.).

From a comment:

Well the function needed to fit in one line, which i didn't think you could do with a named function?

I can't imagine any good reason why the function would ever need to fit in one line. But sure, you can do that with a named function. Try this in your interpreter:

>>> def foo(x): return x + 1

Also these functions are stored as strings which are then evaluated using "eval" which i wasn't sure how to do with regular functions.

Again, while it's hard to be 100% sure without any clue as to why why you're doing this, I'm at least 99% sure that you have no reason or a bad reason for this. Almost any time you think you want to pass Python functions around as strings and call eval so you can use them, you actually just want to pass Python functions around as functions and use them as functions.

But on the off chance that this really is what you need here: Just use exec instead of eval.

You didn't mention which version of Python you're using. In 3.x, the exec function has the exact same signature as the eval function:

exec(my_function_string, my_globals, my_locals)

In 2.7, exec is a statement, not a function—but you can still write it in the same syntax as in 3.x (as long as you don't try to assign the return value to anything) and it works.

In earlier 2.x (before 2.6, I think?) you have to do it like this instead:

exec my_function_string in my_globals, my_locals

How can I create a simple index.html file which lists all files/directories?

This can't be done with pure HTML.

However if you have access to PHP on the Apache server (you tagged the post "apache") it can be done easilly - se the PHP glob function. If not - you might try Server Side Include - it's an Apache thing, and I don't know much about it.

Assert that a method was called in a Python unit test

Yes if you are using Python 3.3+. You can use the built-in unittest.mock to assert method called. For Python 2.6+ use the rolling backport Mock, which is the same thing.

Here is a quick example in your case:

from unittest.mock import MagicMock
aw = aps.Request("nv1")
aw.Clear = MagicMock()
aw2 = aps.Request("nv2", aw)
assert aw.Clear.called

How to configure socket connect timeout

I found this. Simpler than the accepted answer, and works with .NET v2

Socket socket = new Socket(AddressFamily.InterNetwork, SocketType.Stream, ProtocolType.Tcp);

// Connect using a timeout (5 seconds)

IAsyncResult result = socket.BeginConnect( sIP, iPort, null, null );

bool success = result.AsyncWaitHandle.WaitOne( 5000, true );

if ( socket.Connected )
{
    socket.EndConnect( result );
}
else 
{
     // NOTE, MUST CLOSE THE SOCKET

     socket.Close();
     throw new ApplicationException("Failed to connect server.");
}

JSON post to Spring Controller

The consumable media types of the mapped request, narrowing the primary mapping.

the producer is used to narrow the primary mapping, you send request should specify the exact header to match it.

read file in classpath

Change . to / as the path separator and use getResourceAsStream:

reader = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(
    getClass().getClassLoader().getResourceAsStream(
        "com/company/app/dao/sql/SqlQueryFile.sql")));

reader = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(
    getClass().getResourceAsStream(
        "/com/company/app/dao/sql/SqlQueryFile.sql")));

Note the leading slash when using Class.getResourceAsStream() vs ClassLoader.getResourceAsStream. getSystemResourceAsStream uses the system classloader which isn't what you want.

I suspect that using slashes instead of dots would work for ClassPathResource too.

What is the use of a private static variable in Java?

Of course it can be accessed as ClassName.var_name, but only from inside the class in which it is defined - that's because it is defined as private.

public static or private static variables are often used for constants. For example, many people don't like to "hard-code" constants in their code; they like to make a public static or private static variable with a meaningful name and use that in their code, which should make the code more readable. (You should also make such constants final).

For example:

public class Example {
    private final static String JDBC_URL = "jdbc:mysql://localhost/shopdb";
    private final static String JDBC_USERNAME = "username";
    private final static String JDBC_PASSWORD = "password";

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        Connection conn = DriverManager.getConnection(JDBC_URL,
                                         JDBC_USERNAME, JDBC_PASSWORD);

        // ...
    }
}

Whether you make it public or private depends on whether you want the variables to be visible outside the class or not.

RichTextBox (WPF) does not have string property "Text"

The WPF RichTextBox has a Document property for setting the content a la MSDN:

// Create a FlowDocument to contain content for the RichTextBox.
        FlowDocument myFlowDoc = new FlowDocument();

        // Add paragraphs to the FlowDocument.
        myFlowDoc.Blocks.Add(new Paragraph(new Run("Paragraph 1")));
        myFlowDoc.Blocks.Add(new Paragraph(new Run("Paragraph 2")));
        myFlowDoc.Blocks.Add(new Paragraph(new Run("Paragraph 3")));
        RichTextBox myRichTextBox = new RichTextBox();

        // Add initial content to the RichTextBox.
        myRichTextBox.Document = myFlowDoc;

You can just use the AppendText method though if that's all you're after.

Hope that helps.

Laravel - Session store not set on request

I was getting this error with Laravel Sanctum. I fixed it by adding \Illuminate\Session\Middleware\StartSession::class, to the api middleware group in Kernel.php, but I later figured out this "worked" because my authentication routes were added in api.php instead of web.php, so Laravel was using the wrong auth guard.

I moved these routes here into web.php and then they started working properly with the AuthenticatesUsers.php trait:

Route::group(['middleware' => ['guest', 'throttle:10,5']], function () {
    Route::post('register', 'Auth\RegisterController@register')->name('register');
    Route::post('login', 'Auth\LoginController@login')->name('login');

    Route::post('password/email', 'Auth\ForgotPasswordController@sendResetLinkEmail');
    Route::post('password/reset', 'Auth\ResetPasswordController@reset');

    Route::post('email/verify/{user}', 'Auth\VerificationController@verify')->name('verification.verify');
    Route::post('email/resend', 'Auth\VerificationController@resend');

    Route::post('oauth/{driver}', 'Auth\OAuthController@redirectToProvider')->name('oauth.redirect');
    Route::get('oauth/{driver}/callback', 'Auth\OAuthController@handleProviderCallback')->name('oauth.callback');
});

Route::post('logout', 'Auth\LoginController@logout')->name('logout');

I figured out the problem after I got another weird error about RequestGuard::logout() does not exist.

It made me realize that my custom auth routes are calling methods from the AuthenticatesUsers trait, but I wasn't using Auth::routes() to accomplish it. Then I realized Laravel uses the web guard by default and that means routes should be in routes/web.php.

This is what my settings look like now with Sanctum and a decoupled Vue SPA app:

Kernel.php

protected $middlewareGroups = [
    'web' => [
        \App\Http\Middleware\EncryptCookies::class,
        \Illuminate\Cookie\Middleware\AddQueuedCookiesToResponse::class,
        \Illuminate\Session\Middleware\StartSession::class,
        // \Illuminate\Session\Middleware\AuthenticateSession::class,
        \Illuminate\View\Middleware\ShareErrorsFromSession::class,
        \App\Http\Middleware\VerifyCsrfToken::class,
        \Illuminate\Routing\Middleware\SubstituteBindings::class,
    ],

    'api' => [
        EnsureFrontendRequestsAreStateful::class,
        \Illuminate\Routing\Middleware\SubstituteBindings::class,
        'throttle:60,1',
    ],
];

Note: With Laravel Sanctum and same-domain Vue SPA, you use httpOnly cookies for session cookie, and remember me cookie, and unsecure cookie for CSRF, so you use the web guard for auth, and every other protected, JSON-returning route should use auth:sanctum middleware.

config/auth.php

'defaults' => [
    'guard' => 'web',
    'passwords' => 'users',
],

...

'guards' => [
    'web' => [
        'driver' => 'session',
        'provider' => 'users',
    ],

    'api' => [
        'driver' => 'token',
        'provider' => 'users',
        'hash' => false,
    ],
],

Then you can have unit tests such as this, where critically, Auth::check(), Auth::user(), and Auth::logout() work as expected with minimal config and maximal usage of AuthenticatesUsers and RegistersUsers traits.

Here are a couple of my login unit tests:

TestCase.php

/**
 * Creates and/or returns the designated regular user for unit testing
 *
 * @return \App\User
 */
public function user() : User
{
    $user = User::query()->firstWhere('email', '[email protected]');

    if ($user) {
        return $user;
    }

    // User::generate() is just a wrapper around User::create()
    $user = User::generate('Test User', '[email protected]', self::AUTH_PASSWORD);

    return $user;
}

/**
 * Resets AuthManager state by logging out the user from all auth guards.
 * This is used between unit tests to wipe cached auth state.
 *
 * @param array $guards
 * @return void
 */
protected function resetAuth(array $guards = null) : void
{
    $guards = $guards ?: array_keys(config('auth.guards'));

    foreach ($guards as $guard) {
        $guard = $this->app['auth']->guard($guard);

        if ($guard instanceof SessionGuard) {
            $guard->logout();
        }
    }

    $protectedProperty = new \ReflectionProperty($this->app['auth'], 'guards');
    $protectedProperty->setAccessible(true);
    $protectedProperty->setValue($this->app['auth'], []);
}

LoginTest.php

protected $auth_guard = 'web';

/** @test */
public function it_can_login()
{
    $user = $this->user();

    $this->postJson(route('login'), ['email' => $user->email, 'password' => TestCase::AUTH_PASSWORD])
        ->assertStatus(200)
        ->assertJsonStructure([
            'user' => [
                ...expectedUserFields,
            ],
        ]);

    $this->assertEquals(Auth::check(), true);
    $this->assertEquals(Auth::user()->email, $user->email);
    $this->assertAuthenticated($this->auth_guard);
    $this->assertAuthenticatedAs($user, $this->auth_guard);

    $this->resetAuth();
}

/** @test */
public function it_can_logout()
{
    $this->actingAs($this->user())
        ->postJson(route('logout'))
        ->assertStatus(204);

    $this->assertGuest($this->auth_guard);

    $this->resetAuth();
}

I overrided the registered and authenticated methods in the Laravel auth traits so that they return the user object instead of just the 204 OPTIONS:

public function authenticated(Request $request, User $user)
{
    return response()->json([
        'user' => $user,
    ]);
}

protected function registered(Request $request, User $user)
{
    return response()->json([
        'user' => $user,
    ]);
}

Look at the vendor code for the auth traits. You can use them untouched, plus those two above methods.

vendor/laravel/ui/auth-backend/RegistersUsers.php
vendor/laravel/ui/auth-backend/AuthenticatesUsers.php

Here is my Vue SPA's Vuex actions for login:

async login({ commit }, credentials) {
    try {
        const { data } = await axios.post(route('login'), {
            ...credentials,
            remember: credentials.remember || undefined,
        });

        commit(FETCH_USER_SUCCESS, { user: data.user });
        commit(LOGIN);

        return commit(CLEAR_INTENDED_URL);
    } catch (err) {
        commit(LOGOUT);
        throw new Error(`auth/login# Problem logging user in: ${err}.`);
    }
},

async logout({ commit }) {
    try {
        await axios.post(route('logout'));

        return commit(LOGOUT);
    } catch (err) {
        commit(LOGOUT);

        throw new Error(`auth/logout# Problem logging user out: ${err}.`);
    }
},

It took me over a week to get Laravel Sanctum + same-domain Vue SPA + auth unit tests all working up to my standard, so hopefully my answer here can help save others time in the future.

How to change the foreign key referential action? (behavior)

_{Old question but adding answer so that one can get help}

Its two step process:

Suppose, a table1 has a foreign key with column name fk_table2_id, with constraint name fk_name and table2 is referred table with key t2 (something like below in my diagram).

   table1 [ fk_table2_id ] --> table2 [t2]

First step, DROP old CONSTRAINT: (reference)

ALTER TABLE `table1` 
DROP FOREIGN KEY `fk_name`;

_{notice constraint is deleted, column is not deleted}

Second step, ADD new CONSTRAINT:

ALTER TABLE `table1`  
ADD CONSTRAINT `fk_name` 
    FOREIGN KEY (`fk_table2_id`) REFERENCES `table2` (`t2`) ON DELETE CASCADE;

_{adding constraint, column is already there}

Example:

I have a UserDetails table refers to Users table:

mysql> SHOW CREATE TABLE UserDetails;
:
:
 `User_id` int(11) DEFAULT NULL,
  PRIMARY KEY (`Detail_id`),
  KEY `FK_User_id` (`User_id`),
  CONSTRAINT `FK_User_id` FOREIGN KEY (`User_id`) REFERENCES `Users` (`User_id`)
:
:

First step:

mysql> ALTER TABLE `UserDetails` DROP FOREIGN KEY `FK_User_id`;
Query OK, 1 row affected (0.07 sec)

Second step:

mysql> ALTER TABLE `UserDetails` ADD CONSTRAINT `FK_User_id` 
    -> FOREIGN KEY (`User_id`) REFERENCES `Users` (`User_id`) ON DELETE CASCADE;
Query OK, 1 row affected (0.02 sec)

result:

mysql> SHOW CREATE TABLE UserDetails;
:
:
`User_id` int(11) DEFAULT NULL,
  PRIMARY KEY (`Detail_id`),
  KEY `FK_User_id` (`User_id`),
  CONSTRAINT `FK_User_id` FOREIGN KEY (`User_id`) REFERENCES 
                                       `Users` (`User_id`) ON DELETE CASCADE

How to delete all the rows in a table using Eloquent?

The reason MyModel::all()->delete() doesn't work is because all() actually fires off the query and returns a collection of Eloquent objects.

You can make use of the truncate method, this works for Laravel 4 and 5:

MyModel::truncate();

That drops all rows from the table without logging individual row deletions.

Sending websocket ping/pong frame from browser

Ping is meant to be sent only from server to client, and browser should answer as soon as possible with Pong OpCode, automatically. So you have not to worry about that on higher level.

Although that not all browsers support standard as they suppose to, they might have some differences in implementing such mechanism, and it might even means there is no Pong response functionality. But personally I am using Ping / Pong, and never saw client that does not implement this type of OpCode and automatic response on low level client side implementation.

How to create an Observable from static data similar to http one in Angular?

Things seem to have changed since Angular 2.0.0

import { Observable } from 'rxjs/Observable';
import { Subscriber } from 'rxjs/Subscriber';
// ...
public fetchModel(uuid: string = undefined): Observable<string> {
  if(!uuid) {
    return new Observable<TestModel>((subscriber: Subscriber<TestModel>) => subscriber.next(new TestModel())).map(o => JSON.stringify(o));
  }
  else {
    return this.http.get("http://localhost:8080/myapp/api/model/" + uuid)
            .map(res => res.text());
  }
}

The .next() function will be called on your subscriber.

How do I scroll the UIScrollView when the keyboard appears?

Swift 4.2 solution that takes possible heights of UIToolbar and UITabBar into account.

private func setupKeyboardNotifications() {
    NotificationCenter.default.addObserver(self, selector: #selector(keyboardWillShow(_:)), name: UIControl.keyboardWillShowNotification, object: nil)
    NotificationCenter.default.addObserver(self, selector: #selector(keyboardWillHide(_:)), name: UIControl.keyboardWillHideNotification, object: nil)
}

@objc func keyboardWillShow(_ notification: Notification) {
    let userInfo: NSDictionary = notification.userInfo! as NSDictionary
    let keyboardSize = (userInfo[UIResponder.keyboardFrameEndUserInfoKey] as! NSValue).cgRectValue.size

    let tabbarHeight = tabBarController?.tabBar.frame.size.height ?? 0
    let toolbarHeight = navigationController?.toolbar.frame.size.height ?? 0
    let bottomInset = keyboardSize.height - tabbarHeight - toolbarHeight

    scrollView.contentInset.bottom = bottomInset
    scrollView.scrollIndicatorInsets.bottom = bottomInset
}

@objc func keyboardWillHide(_ notification: Notification) {
    scrollView.contentInset = .zero
    scrollView.scrollIndicatorInsets = .zero
}

And, if you're targeting < iOS 9, you have to unregister the observer at some point (thanks Joe)

Modify the legend of pandas bar plot

If you need to call plot multiply times, you can also use the "label" argument:

ax = df1.plot(label='df1', y='y_var')
ax = df2.plot(label='df2', y='y_var')

While this is not the case in the OP question, this can be helpful if the DataFrame is in long format and you use groupby before plotting.

Algorithm to calculate the number of divisors of a given number

This interesting question is much harder than it looks, and it has not been answered. The question can be factored into 2 very different questions.

1 given N, find the list L of N's prime factors

2 given L, calculate number of unique combinations

All answers I see so far refer to #1 and fail to mention it is not tractable for enormous numbers. For moderately sized N, even 64-bit numbers, it is easy; for enormous N, the factoring problem can take "forever". Public key encryption depends on this.

Question #2 needs more discussion. If L contains only unique numbers, it is a simple calculation using the combination formula for choosing k objects from n items. Actually, you need to sum the results from applying the formula while varying k from 1 to sizeof(L). However, L will usually contain multiple occurrences of multiple primes. For example, L = {2,2,2,3,3,5} is the factorization of N = 360. Now this problem is quite difficult!

Restating #2, given collection C containing k items, such that item a has a' duplicates, and item b has b' duplicates, etc. how many unique combinations of 1 to k-1 items are there? For example, {2}, {2,2}, {2,2,2}, {2,3}, {2,2,3,3} must each occur once and only once if L = {2,2,2,3,3,5}. Each such unique sub-collection is a unique divisor of N by multiplying the items in the sub-collection.

Runtime vs. Compile time

Hmm, ok well, runtime is used to describe something that occurs when a program is running.

Compile time is used to describe something that occurs when a program is being built (usually, by a compiler).

'list' object has no attribute 'shape'

Git 'fatal: Unable to write new index file'

I had the same issue on a Mac. It seems to be caused by filesystem ACLs. Try chmod -RN /path/to/repo to clear the ACLs. After doing this I was able to commit changes. Using the trick to copy the index file, delete the original and move the copy back achieved the same result.

How to set up a squid Proxy with basic username and password authentication?

Here's what I had to do to setup basic auth on Ubuntu 14.04 (didn't find a guide anywhere else)

Basic squid conf

/etc/squid3/squid.conf instead of the super bloated default config file

auth_param basic program /usr/lib/squid3/basic_ncsa_auth /etc/squid3/passwords
auth_param basic realm proxy
acl authenticated proxy_auth REQUIRED
http_access allow authenticated

# Choose the port you want. Below we set it to default 3128.
http_port 3128

Please note the basic_ncsa_auth program instead of the old ncsa_auth

squid 2.x

For squid 2.x you need to edit /etc/squid/squid.conf file and place:

auth_param basic program /usr/lib/squid/digest_pw_auth /etc/squid/passwords
auth_param basic realm proxy
acl authenticated proxy_auth REQUIRED
http_access allow authenticated

Setting up a user

sudo htpasswd -c /etc/squid3/passwords username_you_like

and enter a password twice for the chosen username then

sudo service squid3 restart

squid 2.x

sudo htpasswd -c /etc/squid/passwords username_you_like

and enter a password twice for the chosen username then

sudo service squid restart

htdigest vs htpasswd

For the many people that asked me: the 2 tools produce different file formats:

htdigest stores the password in plain text.
htpasswd stores the password hashed (various hashing algos are available)

Despite this difference in format basic_ncsa_auth will still be able to parse a password file generated with htdigest. Hence you can alternatively use:

sudo htdigest -c /etc/squid3/passwords realm_you_like username_you_like

Beware that this approach is empirical, undocumented and may not be supported by future versions of Squid.

On Ubuntu 14.04 htdigest and htpasswd are both available in the [apache2-utils][1] package.

MacOS

Similar as above applies, but file paths are different.

Install squid

brew install squid

Start squid service

brew services start squid

Squid config file is stored at /usr/local/etc/squid.conf.

Comment or remove following line:

http_access allow localnet

Then similar to linux config (but with updated paths) add this:

auth_param basic program /usr/local/Cellar/squid/4.8/libexec/basic_ncsa_auth /usr/local/etc/squid_passwords
auth_param basic realm proxy
acl authenticated proxy_auth REQUIRED
http_access allow authenticated

Note that path to basic_ncsa_auth may be different since it depends on installed version when using brew, you can verify this with ls /usr/local/Cellar/squid/. Also note that you should add the above just bellow the following section:

#
# INSERT YOUR OWN RULE(S) HERE TO ALLOW ACCESS FROM YOUR CLIENTS
#

Now generate yourself a user:password basic auth credential (note: htpasswd and htdigest are also both available on MacOS)

htpasswd -c /usr/local/etc/squid_passwords username_you_like

Restart the squid service

brew services restart squid

Cannot find or open the PDB file in Visual Studio C++ 2010

I ran into a similar problem where Visual Studio (2017) said it could not find my project's PDB file. I could see the PDB file did exist in the correct path. I had to Clean and Rebuild the project, then Visual Studio recognized the PDB file and debugging worked.

Submitting a form by pressing enter without a submit button

I work with a bunch of UI frameworks. Many of them have a built-in class you can use to visually hide things.

Bootstrap

<input type="submit" class="sr-only" tabindex="-1">

Angular Material

<input type="submit" class="cdk-visually-hidden" tabindex="-1">

Brilliant minds who created these frameworks have defined these styles as follows:

.sr-only {
    position: absolute;
    width: 1px;
    height: 1px;
    padding: 0;
    overflow: hidden;
    clip: rect(0, 0, 0, 0);
    white-space: nowrap;
    border: 0;
}

.cdk-visually-hidden {
    border: 0;
    clip: rect(0 0 0 0);
    height: 1px;
    margin: -1px;
    overflow: hidden;
    padding: 0;
    position: absolute;
    width: 1px;
    outline: 0;
    -webkit-appearance: none;
    -moz-appearance: none;
}

How to normalize a vector in MATLAB efficiently? Any related built-in function?

The original code you suggest is the best way.

Matlab is extremely good at vectorized operations such as this, at least for large vectors.

The built-in norm function is very fast. Here are some timing results:

V = rand(10000000,1);
% Run once
tic; V1=V/norm(V); toc           % result:  0.228273s
tic; V2=V/sqrt(sum(V.*V)); toc   % result:  0.325161s
tic; V1=V/norm(V); toc           % result:  0.218892s

V1 is calculated a second time here just to make sure there are no important cache penalties on the first call.

Timing information here was produced with R2008a x64 on Windows.

EDIT:

Revised answer based on gnovice's suggestions (see comments). Matrix math (barely) wins:

clc; clear all;
V = rand(1024*1024*32,1);
N = 10;
tic; for i=1:N, V1 = V/norm(V);         end; toc % 6.3 s
tic; for i=1:N, V2 = V/sqrt(sum(V.*V)); end; toc % 9.3 s
tic; for i=1:N, V3 = V/sqrt(V'*V);      end; toc % 6.2 s ***
tic; for i=1:N, V4 = V/sqrt(sum(V.^2)); end; toc % 9.2 s
tic; for i=1:N, V1=V/norm(V);           end; toc % 6.4 s

IMHO, the difference between "norm(V)" and "sqrt(V'*V)" is small enough that for most programs, it's best to go with the one that's more clear. To me, "norm(V)" is clearer and easier to read, but "sqrt(V'*V)" is still idiomatic in Matlab.

How do I convert an object to an array?

You should look at get_object_vars , as your properties are declared private you should call this inside the class and return its results.

Be careful, for primitive data types like strings it will work great, but I don't know how it behaves with nested objects.

in your case you have to do something like;

<?php
   print_r(get_object_vars($response->response->docs));
?>

Check if string has space in between (or anywhere)

If indeed the goal is to see if a string contains the actual space character (as described in the title), as opposed to any other sort of whitespace characters, you can use:

string s = "Hello There";
bool fHasSpace = s.Contains(" ");

If you're looking for ways to detect whitespace, there's several great options below.

jquery datatables default sort

There are a couple of options:

Just after initialising DataTables, remove the sorting classes on the TD element in the TBODY.
Disable the sorting classes using http://datatables.net/ref#bSortClasses . Problem with this is that it will disable the sort classes for user sort requests - which might or might not be what you want.
Have your server output the table in your required sort order, and don't apply a default sort on the table (aaSorting:[]).

How to disassemble a memory range with GDB?

If all that you want is to see the disassembly with the INTC call, use objdump -d as someone mentioned but use the -static option when compiling. Otherwise the fopen function is not compiled into the elf and is linked at runtime.

How can I properly handle 404 in ASP.NET MVC?

My solution, in case someone finds it useful.

In Web.config:

<system.web>
    <customErrors mode="On" defaultRedirect="Error" >
      <error statusCode="404" redirect="~/Error/PageNotFound"/>
    </customErrors>
    ...
</system.web>

In Controllers/ErrorController.cs:

public class ErrorController : Controller
{
    public ActionResult PageNotFound()
    {
        if(Request.IsAjaxRequest()) {
            Response.StatusCode = (int)HttpStatusCode.NotFound;
            return Content("Not Found", "text/plain");
        }

        return View();
    }
}

Add a PageNotFound.cshtml in the Shared folder, and that's it.

What is the meaning of "attribute((packed, aligned(4))) "

The attribute packed means that the compiler will not add padding between fields of the struct. Padding is usually used to make fields aligned to their natural size, because some architectures impose penalties for unaligned access or don't allow it at all.

aligned(4) means that the struct should be aligned to an address that is divisible by 4.

Switch case in C# - a constant value is expected

There is this trick which was shared with me (don't ask for details - won't be able to provide them, but it works for me):

switch (variable_1)
{
    case var value when value == variable_2: // that's the trick
        DoSomething();
        break;
    default:
        DoSomethingElse();
        break;
}

SQLAlchemy: print the actual query

In the vast majority of cases, the "stringification" of a SQLAlchemy statement or query is as simple as:

print(str(statement))

This applies both to an ORM Query as well as any select() or other statement.

Note: the following detailed answer is being maintained on the sqlalchemy documentation.

To get the statement as compiled to a specific dialect or engine, if the statement itself is not already bound to one you can pass this in to compile():

print(statement.compile(someengine))

or without an engine:

from sqlalchemy.dialects import postgresql
print(statement.compile(dialect=postgresql.dialect()))

When given an ORM Query object, in order to get at the compile() method we only need access the .statement accessor first:

statement = query.statement
print(statement.compile(someengine))

with regards to the original stipulation that bound parameters are to be "inlined" into the final string, the challenge here is that SQLAlchemy normally is not tasked with this, as this is handled appropriately by the Python DBAPI, not to mention bypassing bound parameters is probably the most widely exploited security holes in modern web applications. SQLAlchemy has limited ability to do this stringification in certain circumstances such as that of emitting DDL. In order to access this functionality one can use the 'literal_binds' flag, passed to compile_kwargs:

from sqlalchemy.sql import table, column, select

t = table('t', column('x'))

s = select([t]).where(t.c.x == 5)

print(s.compile(compile_kwargs={"literal_binds": True}))

the above approach has the caveats that it is only supported for basic types, such as ints and strings, and furthermore if a bindparam without a pre-set value is used directly, it won't be able to stringify that either.

To support inline literal rendering for types not supported, implement a TypeDecorator for the target type which includes a TypeDecorator.process_literal_param method:

from sqlalchemy import TypeDecorator, Integer


class MyFancyType(TypeDecorator):
    impl = Integer

    def process_literal_param(self, value, dialect):
        return "my_fancy_formatting(%s)" % value

from sqlalchemy import Table, Column, MetaData

tab = Table('mytable', MetaData(), Column('x', MyFancyType()))

print(
    tab.select().where(tab.c.x > 5).compile(
        compile_kwargs={"literal_binds": True})
)

producing output like:

SELECT mytable.x
FROM mytable
WHERE mytable.x > my_fancy_formatting(5)

#define macro for debug printing in C?

I believe this variation of the theme gives debug categories without the need to have a separate macro name per category.

I used this variation in an Arduino project where program space is limited to 32K and dynamic memory is limited to 2K. The addition of debug statements and trace debug strings quickly uses up space. So it is essential to be able to limit the debug trace that is included at compile time to the minimum necessary each time the code is built.

debug.h

#ifndef DEBUG_H
#define DEBUG_H

#define PRINT(DEBUG_CATEGORY, VALUE)  do { if (DEBUG_CATEGORY & DEBUG_MASK) Serial.print(VALUE);} while (0);

#endif

calling .cpp file

#define DEBUG_MASK 0x06
#include "Debug.h"

...
PRINT(4, "Time out error,\t");

How to get multiple selected values from select box in JSP?

It would seem overkill but Spring Forms handles this elegantly. That is of course if you are already using Spring MVC and you want to take advantage of the Spring Forms feature.

// jsp form
    <form:select path="friendlyNumber" items="${friendlyNumberItems}" />

    // the command class
    public class NumberCmd {
      private String[] friendlyNumber;
    }

    // in your Spring MVC controller submit method
    @RequestMapping(method=RequestMethod.POST)
    public String manageOrders(@ModelAttribute("nbrCmd") NumberCmd nbrCmd){

       String[] selectedNumbers = nbrCmd.getFriendlyNumber();

    }

How to revert the last migration?

You can revert by migrating to the previous migration.

For example, if your last two migrations are:

0010_previous_migration
0011_migration_to_revert

Then you would do:

./manage.py migrate my_app 0010_previous_migration

You can then delete migration 0011_migration_to_revert.

If you're using Django 1.8+, you can show the names of all the migrations with

./manage.py showmigrations my_app

To reverse all migrations for an app, you can run:

./manage.py migrate my_app zero

Pure CSS collapse/expand div

Using `<summary>` and `<details>`

Using <summary> and <details> elements is the simplest but see browser support as current IE is not supporting it. You can polyfill though (most are jQuery-based). Do note that unsupported browser will simply show the expanded version of course, so that may be acceptable in some cases.

_x000D_

/* Optional styling */_x000D_
summary::-webkit-details-marker {_x000D_
  color: blue;_x000D_
}_x000D_
summary:focus {_x000D_
  outline-style: none;_x000D_
}

_x000D_

<details>_x000D_
  <summary>Summary, caption, or legend for the content</summary>_x000D_
  Content goes here._x000D_
</details>

_x000D_

See also how to style the <details> element (HTML5 Doctor) (little bit tricky).

Android - How to download a file from a webserver

You should use an AsyncTask (or other way to perform a network operation on background).

@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);

    //create and execute the download task
    MyAsyncTask async = new MyAsyncTask();
    async.execute();

}

private class MyAsyncTask extends AsyncTask<Void, Void, Void>{

    //execute on background (out of the UI thread)
    protected Long doInBackground(URL... urls) {
        DownloadFiles();
    }

}

jQuery $(document).ready and UpdatePanels?

I had a similar problem and found the way that worked best was to rely on Event Bubbling and event delegation to handle it. The nice thing about event delegation is that once setup, you don't have to rebind events after an AJAX update.

What I do in my code is setup a delegate on the parent element of the update panel. This parent element is not replaced on an update and therefore the event binding is unaffected.

There are a number of good articles and plugins to handle event delegation in jQuery and the feature will likely be baked into the 1.3 release. The article/plugin I use for reference is:

http://www.danwebb.net/2008/2/8/event-delegation-made-easy-in-jquery

Once you understand what it happening, I think you'll find this a much more elegant solution that is more reliable than remembering to re-bind events after every update. This also has the added benefit of giving you one event to unbind when the page is unloaded.

Difference between ref and out parameters in .NET

out and ref are exactly the same with the exception that out variables don't have to be initialized before sending it into the abyss. I'm not that smart, I cribbed that from the MSDN library :).

To be more explicit about their use, however, the meaning of the modifier is that if you change the reference of that variable in your code, out and ref will cause your calling variable to change reference as well. In the code below, the ceo variable will be a reference to the newGuy once it returns from the call to doStuff. If it weren't for ref (or out) the reference wouldn't be changed.

private void newEmployee()
{
    Person ceo = Person.FindCEO();
    doStuff(ref ceo);
}

private void doStuff(ref Person employee)
{
    Person newGuy = new Person();
    employee = newGuy;
}

How to enable loglevel debug on Apache2 server

Do note that on newer Apache versions the RewriteLog and RewriteLogLevel have been removed, and in fact will now trigger an error when trying to start Apache (at least on my XAMPP installation with Apache 2.4.2):

AH00526: Syntax error on line xx of path/to/config/file.conf: Invalid command 'RewriteLog', perhaps misspelled or defined by a module not included in the server configuration`

Instead, you're now supposed to use the general LogLevel directive, with a level of trace1 up to trace8. 'debug' didn't display any rewrite messages in the log for me.

Example: LogLevel warn rewrite:trace3

For the official documentation, see here.

Of course this also means that now your rewrite logs will be written in the general error log file and you'll have to sort them out yourself.

How do you find the first key in a dictionary?

FFMPEG mp4 from http live streaming m3u8 file?

Your command is completely incorrect. The output format is not rawvideo and you don't need the bitstream filter h264_mp4toannexb which is used when you want to convert the h264 contained in an mp4 to the Annex B format used by MPEG-TS for example. What you want to use instead is the aac_adtstoasc for the AAC streams.

Why do abstract classes in Java have constructors?

Two reasons for this:

1) Abstract classes have constructors and those constructors are always invoked when a concrete subclass is instantiated. We know that when we are going to instantiate a class, we always use constructor of that class. Now every constructor invokes the constructor of its super class with an implicit call to super().

2) We know constructor are also used to initialize fields of a class. We also know that abstract classes may contain fields and sometimes they need to be initialized somehow by using constructor.

How to properly reference local resources in HTML?

A leading slash tells the browser to start at the root directory.
If you don't have the leading slash, you're referencing from the current directory.
If you add two dots before the leading slash, it means you're referencing the parent of the current directory.

Take the following folder structure

demo folder structure

notice:

the ROOT checkmark is green,
the second checkmark is orange,
the third checkmark is purple,
the forth checkmark is yellow

Now in the index.html.en file you'll want to put the following markup

<p>
    <span>src="check_mark.png"</span>
    <img src="check_mark.png" />
    <span>I'm purple because I'm referenced from this current directory</span>
</p>

<p>
    <span>src="/check_mark.png"</span>
    <img src="/check_mark.png" />
    <span>I'm green because I'm referenced from the ROOT directory</span>
</p>

<p>
    <span>src="subfolder/check_mark.png"</span>
    <img src="subfolder/check_mark.png" />
    <span>I'm yellow because I'm referenced from the child of this current directory</span>
</p>

<p>
    <span>src="/subfolder/check_mark.png"</span>
    <img src="/subfolder/check_mark.png" />
    <span>I'm orange because I'm referenced from the child of the ROOT directory</span>
</p>

<p>
    <span>src="../subfolder/check_mark.png"</span>
    <img src="../subfolder/check_mark.png" />
    <span>I'm purple because I'm referenced from the parent of this current directory</span>
</p>

<p>
    <span>src="subfolder/subfolder/check_mark.png"</span>
    <img src="subfolder/subfolder/check_mark.png" />
    <span>I'm [broken] because there is no subfolder two children down from this current directory</span>
</p>

<p>

    <img src="/subfolder/subfolder/check_mark.png" />
    <span>I'm purple because I'm referenced two children down from the ROOT directory</span>

SQL Server SELECT into existing table

SELECT ... INTO ... only works if the table specified in the INTO clause does not exist - otherwise, you have to use:

INSERT INTO dbo.TABLETWO
SELECT col1, col2
  FROM dbo.TABLEONE
 WHERE col3 LIKE @search_key

This assumes there's only two columns in dbo.TABLETWO - you need to specify the columns otherwise:

INSERT INTO dbo.TABLETWO
  (col1, col2)
SELECT col1, col2
  FROM dbo.TABLEONE
 WHERE col3 LIKE @search_key

Is there a way to get rid of accents and convert a whole string to regular letters?

The solution by @virgo47 is very fast, but approximate. The accepted answer uses Normalizer and a regular expression. I wondered what part of the time was taken by Normalizer versus the regular expression, since removing all the non-ASCII characters can be done without a regex:

import java.text.Normalizer;

public class Strip {
    public static String flattenToAscii(String string) {
        StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder(string.length());
        string = Normalizer.normalize(string, Normalizer.Form.NFD);
        for (char c : string.toCharArray()) {
            if (c <= '\u007F') sb.append(c);
        }
        return sb.toString();
    }
}

Small additional speed-ups can be obtained by writing into a char[] and not calling toCharArray(), although I'm not sure that the decrease in code clarity merits it:

public static String flattenToAscii(String string) {
    char[] out = new char[string.length()];
    string = Normalizer.normalize(string, Normalizer.Form.NFD);
    int j = 0;
    for (int i = 0, n = string.length(); i < n; ++i) {
        char c = string.charAt(i);
        if (c <= '\u007F') out[j++] = c;
    }
    return new String(out);
}

This variation has the advantage of the correctness of the one using Normalizer and some of the speed of the one using a table. On my machine, this one is about 4x faster than the accepted answer, and 6.6x to 7x slower that @virgo47's (the accepted answer is about 26x slower than @virgo47's on my machine).

Bloomberg Open API

Since the data is not free, you can use this Bloomberg API Emulator (disclaimer: it's my project) to learn how to send requests and make subscriptions. This emulator looks and acts just like the real Bloomberg API, although it doesn't return real data. In my time developing applications that use the Bloomberg API, I rarely care about the actual data that I'm handling; I care about how to retrieve data.

If you want to learn how to use the Bloomberg API give it a try. If you want to test out your code without an account, use this. A Bloomberg account costs about $2,000 a month, so you can save a lot with this project.

The emulator now supports Java and C++ in addition to C#.

C#, C++, and Java:

Intraday Tick Requests
Intraday Bar Requests
Reference Data Requests
Historical Data Requests
Market Data Subscriptions

Edit: Updated Project link, moved to github

How to load my app from Eclipse to my Android phone instead of AVD

First you need to set your device to debugging mode. On Android 4.X that means as described in another answer in another question:

Open up your device’s “Settings”. This can be done by pressing the Menu button while on your home screen and tapping “System settings”

Now scroll to the bottom and tap “About phone” or “About tablet”.

At the “About” screen, scroll to the bottom and tap on “Build number” seven times. [Note this is no joke]

Make sure you tap seven times. If you see a “Not need, you are already a developer!” message pop up, then you know you have done it correctly.

Done! By tapping on “Build number” seven times, you have unlocked USB debugging mode on Android 4.2 and higher. You can now enable/disable it whenever you desire by going to “Settings” -> “Developer Options” -> “Debugging” ->” USB debugging”.

The next step is to connect your device to your computer via the USB cable.

The next step is to install a USB driver for it. On the official website you find a list with sources for drivers for phones from various different companies.

Eclipse now should give you the phone as a choice when you click on Run and it presents you possible device to launch.

In some case Eclpise will tell you Target Unknown which prevents you from using the device. If that's the case you might have to restart the phone. You might also have to check and recheckUSB debugging, till the phone asks you to allow your particular computer to do usb debugging.

Favicon: .ico or .png / correct tags?

For compatibility with all browsers stick with .ico.

.png is getting more and more support though as it is easier to create using multiple programs.

for .ico

<link rel="shortcut icon" href="http://example.com/myicon.ico" />

for .png, you need to specify the type

<link rel="icon" type="image/png" href="http://example.com/image.png" />

Display HTML snippets in HTML

Ultimately the best (though annoying) answer is "escape the text".

There are however a lot of text editors -- or even stand-alone mini utilities -- that can do this automatically. So you never should have to escape it manually if you don't want to (Unless it's a mix of escaped and un-escaped code...)

Quick Google search shows me this one, for example: http://malektips.com/zzee-text-utility-html-escape-regular-expression.html

Single vs Double quotes (' vs ")

Using " instead of ' when:

<input value="user"/> //Standard html
<input value="user's choice"/> //Need to use single quote
<input onclick="alert('hi')"/> //When giving string as parameter for javascript function

Using ' instead of " when:

<input value='"User"'/> //Need to use double quote
var html = "<input name='username'/>" //When assigning html content to a javascript variable

How to spawn a process and capture its STDOUT in .NET?

Redirecting the stream is asynchronous and will potentially continue after the process has terminated. It is mentioned by Umar to cancel after process termination process.CancelOutputRead(). However that has data loss potential.

This is working reliably for me:

process.WaitForExit(...);
...
while (process.StandardOutput.EndOfStream == false)
{
    Thread.Sleep(100);
}

I didn't try this approach but I like the suggestion from Sly:

if (process.WaitForExit(timeout))
{
    process.WaitForExit();
}

How do I explicitly specify a Model's table-name mapping in Rails?

class Countries < ActiveRecord::Base
    self.table_name = "cc"
end

In Rails 3.x this is the way to specify the table name.

Could not get constructor for org.hibernate.persister.entity.SingleTableEntityPersister

in my case, the problem got solved only by implementing serializable as below:

@Entity @Table(name = "User" , uniqueConstraints = { @UniqueConstraint(columnNames = {"nam"}) }) public class User extends GenericT implements Serializable

How to remove border of drop down list : CSS

The most you can get is:

select#xyz {
   border:0px;
   outline:0px;
}

You cannot style it completely, but you can try something like

select#xyz {
  -webkit-appearance: button;
  -webkit-border-radius: 2px;
  -webkit-box-shadow: 0px 1px 3px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.1);
  -webkit-padding-end: 20px;
  -webkit-padding-start: 2px;
  -webkit-user-select: none;
  background-image: url(../images/select-arrow.png), 
    -webkit-linear-gradient(#FAFAFA, #F4F4F4 40%, #E5E5E5);
  background-position: center right;
  background-repeat: no-repeat;
  border: 1px solid #AAA;
  color: #555;
  font-size: inherit;
  margin: 0;
  overflow: hidden;
  padding-top: 2px;
  padding-bottom: 2px;
  text-overflow: ellipsis;
  white-space: nowrap;
}

Best approach to real time http streaming to HTML5 video client

I wrote an HTML5 video player around broadway h264 codec (emscripten) that can play live (no delay) h264 video on all browsers (desktop, iOS, ...).

Video stream is sent through websocket to the client, decoded frame per frame and displayed in a canva (using webgl for acceleration)

Check out https://github.com/131/h264-live-player on github.

Run MySQLDump without Locking Tables

The answer varies depending on what storage engine you're using. The ideal scenario is if you're using InnoDB. In that case you can use the --single-transaction flag, which will give you a coherent snapshot of the database at the time that the dump begins.

React Native add bold or italics to single words in <Text> field

Nesting Text components is not possible now, but you can wrap your text in a View like this:

<View style={{flexDirection: 'row', flexWrap: 'wrap'}}>
    <Text>
        {'Hello '}
    </Text>
    <Text style={{fontWeight: 'bold'}}>
        {'this is a bold text '}
    </Text>
    <Text>
        and this is not
    </Text>
</View>

I used the strings inside the brackets to force the space between words, but you can also achieve it with marginRight or marginLeft. Hope it helps.

PySpark: withColumn() with two conditions and three outcomes

The withColumn function in pyspark enables you to make a new variable with conditions, add in the when and otherwise functions and you have a properly working if then else structure. For all of this you would need to import the sparksql functions, as you will see that the following bit of code will not work without the col() function. In the first bit, we declare a new column -'new column', and then give the condition enclosed in when function (i.e. fruit1==fruit2) then give 1 if the condition is true, if untrue the control goes to the otherwise which then takes care of the second condition (fruit1 or fruit2 is Null) with the isNull() function and if true 3 is returned and if false, the otherwise is checked again giving 0 as the answer.

from pyspark.sql import functions as F
df=df.withColumn('new_column', 
    F.when(F.col('fruit1')==F.col('fruit2'), 1)
    .otherwise(F.when((F.col('fruit1').isNull()) | (F.col('fruit2').isNull()), 3))
    .otherwise(0))

How to set radio button checked as default in radiogroup?

you should check the radiobutton in the radiogroup like this:

radiogroup.check(IdOfYourButton)

Of course you first have to set an Id to your radiobuttons

EDIT: i forgot, radioButton.getId() works as well, thx Ramesh

EDIT2:

android:checkedButton="@+id/my_radiobtn"

works in radiogroup xml

What value could I insert into a bit type column?

Generally speaking, for boolean or bit data types, you would use 0 or 1 like so:

JAXB :Need Namespace Prefix to all the elements

Was facing this issue, Solved by adding package-info in my package

    elementFormDefault = XmlNsForm.QUALIFIED,
    xmlns = {
        @XmlNs(prefix="", namespaceURI="http://www.w3schools.com/xml/")

How can I use Async with ForEach?

List<T>.ForEach doesn't play particularly well with async (neither does LINQ-to-objects, for the same reasons).

In this case, I recommend projecting each element into an asynchronous operation, and you can then (asynchronously) wait for them all to complete.

using (DataContext db = new DataLayer.DataContext())
{
    var tasks = db.Groups.ToList().Select(i => GetAdminsFromGroupAsync(i.Gid));
    var results = await Task.WhenAll(tasks);
}

The benefits of this approach over giving an async delegate to ForEach are:

Error handling is more proper. Exceptions from async void cannot be caught with catch; this approach will propagate exceptions at the await Task.WhenAll line, allowing natural exception handling.
You know that the tasks are complete at the end of this method, since it does an await Task.WhenAll. If you use async void, you cannot easily tell when the operations have completed.
This approach has a natural syntax for retrieving the results. GetAdminsFromGroupAsync sounds like it's an operation that produces a result (the admins), and such code is more natural if such operations can return their results rather than setting a value as a side effect.

Beamer: How to show images as step-by-step images

Return string without trailing slash

function stripTrailingSlash(str) {
    if(str.substr(-1) === '/') {
        return str.substr(0, str.length - 1);
    }
    return str;
}

Note: IE8 and older do not support negative substr offsets. Use str.length - 1 instead if you need to support those ancient browsers.

correct quoting for cmd.exe for multiple arguments

Spaces are horrible in filenames or directory names.

The correct syntax for this is to include every directory name that includes spaces, in double quotes

cmd /c C:\"Program Files"\"Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0"\Common7\IDE\devenv.com mysolution.sln /build "release|win32"

The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process (File is created but contains nothing)

You are writing to the file prior to closing your filestream:

using(FileStream fs=new FileStream(path,FileMode.OpenOrCreate))
using (StreamWriter str=new StreamWriter(fs))
{
   str.BaseStream.Seek(0,SeekOrigin.End); 
   str.Write("mytext.txt.........................");
   str.WriteLine(DateTime.Now.ToLongTimeString()+" "+DateTime.Now.ToLongDateString());
   string addtext="this line is added"+Environment.NewLine;

   str.Flush();

}

File.AppendAllText(path,addtext);  //Exception occurrs ??????????
string readtext=File.ReadAllText(path);
Console.WriteLine(readtext);

The above code should work, using the methods you are currently using. You should also look into the using statement and wrap your streams in a using block.

detect key press in python?

You don't mention if this is a GUI program or not, but most GUI packages include a way to capture and handle keyboard input. For example, with tkinter (in Py3), you can bind to a certain event and then handle it in a function. For example:

import tkinter as tk

def key_handler(event=None):
    if event and event.keysym in ('s', 'p'):
        'do something'

r = tk.Tk()
t = tk.Text()
t.pack()
r.bind('<Key>', key_handler)
r.mainloop()

With the above, when you type into the Text widget, the key_handler routine gets called for each (or almost each) key you press.

How to find out the server IP address (using JavaScript) that the browser is connected to?

Try this as a shortcut, not as a definitive solution (see comments):

</script>

This solution cannot work in some scenarios but it can help for quick testing. Regards

How to bind Dataset to DataGridView in windows application

following will show one table of dataset

DataGridView1.AutoGenerateColumns = true;
DataGridView1.DataSource = ds; // dataset
DataGridView1.DataMember = "TableName"; // table name you need to show

if you want to show multiple tables, you need to create one datatable or custom object collection out of all tables.

if two tables with same table schema

dtAll = dtOne.Copy(); // dtOne = ds.Tables[0]
dtAll.Merge(dtTwo); // dtTwo = dtOne = ds.Tables[1]

DataGridView1.AutoGenerateColumns = true;
DataGridView1.DataSource = dtAll ; // datatable

sample code to mode all tables

DataTable dtAll = ds.Tables[0].Copy();
for (var i = 1; i < ds.Tables.Count; i++)
{
     dtAll.Merge(ds.Tables[i]);
}
DataGridView1.AutoGenerateColumns = true;
DataGridView1.DataSource = dtAll ;

Postgres user does not exist?

psql -U postgres

Worked fine for me in case of db name: postgres & username: postgres. So you do not need to write sudo.

And in the case other db, you may try

psql -U yourdb postgres

As it is given in Postgres help:

psql [OPTION]... [DBNAME [USERNAME]]

Passing references to pointers in C++

myfunc("string*& val") this itself doesn't make any sense. "string*& val" implies "string val",* and & cancels each other. Finally one can not pas string variable to a function("string val"). Only basic data types can be passed to a function, for other data types need to pass as pointer or reference. You can have either string& val or string* val to a function.

Is it possible to create a File object from InputStream

If you are using Java version 7 or higher, you can use try-with-resources to properly close the FileOutputStream. The following code use IOUtils.copy() from commons-io.

    try(OutputStream outputStream = new FileOutputStream(file)) {
        IOUtils.copy(inputStream, outputStream);

iterrows pandas get next rows value

There is a pairwise() function example in the itertools document:

from itertools import tee, izip
def pairwise(iterable):
    "s -> (s0,s1), (s1,s2), (s2, s3), ..."
    a, b = tee(iterable)
    next(b, None)
    return izip(a, b)

import pandas as pd
df = pd.DataFrame(['AA', 'BB', 'CC'], columns = ['value'])

for (i1, row1), (i2, row2) in pairwise(df.iterrows()):
    print i1, i2, row1["value"], row2["value"]

Here is the output:

0 1 AA BB
1 2 BB CC

But, I think iter rows in a DataFrame is slow, if you can explain what's the problem you want to solve, maybe I can suggest some better method.

How do I run .sh or .bat files from Terminal?

    var pos = $('a[name='+name+']').offset();
    $('body').animate({ scrollTop: pos.top });

What is the difference between an annotated and unannotated tag?

TL;DR

The difference between the commands is that one provides you with a tag message while the other doesn't. An annotated tag has a message that can be displayed with git-show(1), while a tag without annotations is just a named pointer to a commit.

More About Lightweight Tags

According to the documentation: "To create a lightweight tag, don’t supply any of the -a, -s, or -m options, just provide a tag name". There are also some different options to write a message on annotated tags:

When you use git tag <tagname>, Git will create a tag at the current revision but will not prompt you for an annotation. It will be tagged without a message (this is a lightweight tag).
When you use git tag -a <tagname>, Git will prompt you for an annotation unless you have also used the -m flag to provide a message.
When you use git tag -a -m <msg> <tagname>, Git will tag the commit and annotate it with the provided message.
When you use git tag -m <msg> <tagname>, Git will behave as if you passed the -a flag for annotation and use the provided message.

Basically, it just amounts to whether you want the tag to have an annotation and some other information associated with it or not.

Converting HTML to PDF using PHP?

If you wish to create a pdf from php, pdflib will help you (as some others suggested).

Else, if you want to convert an HTML page to PDF via PHP, you'll find a little trouble outta here.. For 3 years I've been trying to do it as best as I can.

So, the options I know are:

DOMPDF : php class that wraps the html and builds the pdf. Works good, customizable (if you know php), based on pdflib, if I remember right it takes even some CSS. Bad news: slow when the html is big or complex.

HTML2PS: same as DOMPDF, but this one converts first to a .ps (ghostscript) file, then, to whatever format you need (pdf, jpg, png). For me is little better than dompdf, but has the same speed problem.. but, better compatibility with CSS.

Those two are php classes, but if you can install some software on the server, and access it throught passthru() or system(), give a look to these too:

wkhtmltopdf: based on webkit (safari's wrapper), is really fast and powerful.. seems like this is the best one (atm) for converting html pages to pdf on the fly; taking only 2 seconds for a 3 page xHTML document with CSS2. It is a recent project, anyway, the google.code page is often updated.

htmldoc : This one is a tank, it never really stops/crashes.. the project looks dead since 2007, but anyway if you don't need CSS compatibility this can be nice for you.

What is resource-ref in web.xml used for?

You can always refer to resources in your application directly by their JNDI name as configured in the container, but if you do so, essentially you are wiring the container-specific name into your code. This has some disadvantages, for example, if you'll ever want to change the name later for some reason, you'll need to update all the references in all your applications, and then rebuild and redeploy them.

<resource-ref> introduces another layer of indirection: you specify the name you want to use in the web.xml, and, depending on the container, provide a binding in a container-specific configuration file.

So here's what happens: let's say you want to lookup the java:comp/env/jdbc/primaryDB name. The container finds that web.xml has a <resource-ref> element for jdbc/primaryDB, so it will look into the container-specific configuration, that contains something similar to the following:

<resource-ref>
  <res-ref-name>jdbc/primaryDB</res-ref-name>
  <jndi-name>jdbc/PrimaryDBInTheContainer</jndi-name>
</resource-ref>

Finally, it returns the object registered under the name of jdbc/PrimaryDBInTheContainer.

The idea is that specifying resources in the web.xml has the advantage of separating the developer role from the deployer role. In other words, as a developer, you don't have to know what your required resources are actually called in production, and as the guy deploying the application, you will have a nice list of names to map to real resources.

json_encode(): Invalid UTF-8 sequence in argument

Make sure that your connection charset to MySQL is UTF-8. It often defaults to ISO-8859-1 which means that the MySQL driver will convert the text to ISO-8859-1.

You can set the connection charset with mysql_set_charset, mysqli_set_charset or with the query SET NAMES 'utf-8'

How to check for a Null value in VB.NET

editTransactionRow.pay_id is Null so in fact you are doing: null.ToString() and it cannot be executed. You need to check editTransactionRow.pay_id and not editTransactionRow.pay_id.ToString();

You code should be (IF pay_id is a string):

If String.IsNullOrEmpty(editTransactionRow.pay_id) = False Then
    stTransactionPaymentID = editTransactionRow.pay_id 'Check for null value
End If

If pay_id is an Integer than you can just check if it's null normally without String... Edit to show you if it's not a String:

If editTransactionRow.pay_id IsNot Nothing Then
    stTransactionPaymentID = editTransactionRow.pay_id 'Check for null value
End If

If it's from a database you can use IsDBNull but if not, do not use it.

Use virtualenv with Python with Visual Studio Code in Ubuntu

It seems to be (as of 2018.03) in code-insider. A directive has been introduced called python.venvFolders:

  "python.venvFolders": [
    "envs",
    ".pyenv",
    ".direnv"
  ],

All you need is to add your virtualenv folder name.
