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

Why don't you just make it easy and simple. If I need to know the number of days between today and say, March 10th, 2015, I can just enter the simple formula.

Lets say the static date is March 10th, 2015, and is in cell O5.

The formula to determine the number of days between today and O5 would be, =O5-Today()

Nothing fancy or DATEDIF stuff. Obviously, the cell where you type this formula in must have a data type of 'number'. Just type your date in normally in the reference cell, in this case O5.

Endless loop in C/C++

I would recommend while (1) { } or while (true) { }. It's what most programmers would write, and for readability reasons you should follow the common idioms.

(Ok, so there is an obvious "citation needed" for the claim about most programmers. But from the code I've seen, in C since 1984, I believe it is true.)

Any reasonable compiler would compile all of them to the same code, with an unconditional jump, but I wouldn't be surprised if there are some unreasonable compilers out there, for embedded or other specialized systems.

How to get a list of installed android applications and pick one to run

I had a requirement to filter out the system apps which user do not really use(eg. "com.qualcomm.service", "update services", etc). Ultimately I added another condition to filter down the app list. I just checked whether the app has 'launcher intent'.

So, the resultant code looks like...

PackageManager pm = getPackageManager();
        List<ApplicationInfo> apps = pm.getInstalledApplications(PackageManager.GET_GIDS);

        for (ApplicationInfo app : apps) {
            if(pm.getLaunchIntentForPackage(app.packageName) != null) {
                // apps with launcher intent
                if((app.flags & ApplicationInfo.FLAG_UPDATED_SYSTEM_APP) != 0) {
                    // updated system apps

                } else if ((app.flags & ApplicationInfo.FLAG_SYSTEM) != 0) {
                    // system apps

                } else {
                    // user installed apps

                }
                appsList.add(app);
            }

        }

How do I get the number of days between two dates in JavaScript?

Simple, easy, and sophisticated. This function will be called in every 1 sec to update time.

const year = (new Date().getFullYear());
const bdayDate = new Date("04,11,2019").getTime(); //mmddyyyy

// countdown
let timer = setInterval(function () {

    // get today's date
    const today = new Date().getTime();

    // get the difference
    const diff = bdayDate - today;

    // math
    let days = Math.floor(diff / (1000 * 60 * 60 * 24));
    let hours = Math.floor((diff % (1000 * 60 * 60 * 24)) / (1000 * 60 * 60));
    let minutes = Math.floor((diff % (1000 * 60 * 60)) / (1000 * 60));
    let seconds = Math.floor((diff % (1000 * 60)) / 1000);

}, 1000);

Error:Execution failed for task ':app:transformClassesWithDexForDebug' in android studio

This can be because of following reason:

  1. one of the jar files inside project was using an older version of google play services.

  2. use multiDexEnabled true in defaultconfig

  3. Be specific with classes you add in dependencies. like

    compile 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-maps:8.4.0'

Not like compile 'com.google.android.gms:play-services:+'

Iptables setting multiple multiports in one rule

You need to use multiple rules to implement OR-like semantics, since matches are always AND-ed together within a rule. Alternatively, you can do matching against port-indexing ipsets (ipset create blah bitmap:port).

PHP: How to remove specific element from an array?

Use array_diff() for 1 line solution:

$array = array('apple', 'orange', 'strawberry', 'blueberry', 'kiwi', 'strawberry'); //throw in another 'strawberry' to demonstrate that it removes multiple instances of the string
$array_without_strawberries = array_diff($array, array('strawberry'));
print_r($array_without_strawberries);

...No need for extra functions or foreach loop.

How to import a csv file using python with headers intact, where first column is a non-numerical

For Python 3

Remove the rb argument and use either r or don't pass argument (default read mode).

with open( <path-to-file>, 'r' ) as theFile:
    reader = csv.DictReader(theFile)
    for line in reader:
        # line is { 'workers': 'w0', 'constant': 7.334, 'age': -1.406, ... }
        # e.g. print( line[ 'workers' ] ) yields 'w0'
        print(line)

For Python 2

import csv
with open( <path-to-file>, "rb" ) as theFile:
    reader = csv.DictReader( theFile )
    for line in reader:
        # line is { 'workers': 'w0', 'constant': 7.334, 'age': -1.406, ... }
        # e.g. print( line[ 'workers' ] ) yields 'w0'

Python has a powerful built-in CSV handler. In fact, most things are already built in to the standard library.

CSS Div Background Image Fixed Height 100% Width

See my answer to a similar question here.

It sounds like you want a background-image to keep it's own aspect ratio while expanding to 100% width and getting cropped off on the top and bottom. If that's the case, do something like this:

.chapter {
    position: relative;
    height: 1200px;
    z-index: 1;
}

#chapter1 {
    background-image: url(http://omset.files.wordpress.com/2010/06/homer-simpson-1-264a0.jpg);
    background-repeat: no-repeat;
    background-size: 100% auto;
    background-position: center top;
    background-attachment: fixed;
}

jsfiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/ndKWN/3/

The problem with this approach is that you have the container elements at a fixed height, so there can be space below if the screen is small enough.

If you want the height to keep the image's aspect ratio, you'll have to do something like what I wrote in an edit to the answer I linked to above. Set the container's height to 0 and set the padding-bottom to the percentage of the width:

.chapter {
    position: relative;
    height: 0;
    padding-bottom: 75%;
    z-index: 1;
}

#chapter1 {
    background-image: url(http://omset.files.wordpress.com/2010/06/homer-simpson-1-264a0.jpg);
    background-repeat: no-repeat;
    background-size: 100% auto;
    background-position: center top;
    background-attachment: fixed;
}

jsfiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/ndKWN/4/

You could also put the padding-bottom percentage into each #chapter style if each image has a different aspect ratio. In order to use different aspect ratios, divide the height of the original image by it's own width, and multiply by 100 to get the percentage value.

Filtering a list of strings based on contents

This simple filtering can be achieved in many ways with Python. The best approach is to use "list comprehensions" as follows:

>>> lst = ['a', 'ab', 'abc', 'bac']
>>> [k for k in lst if 'ab' in k]
['ab', 'abc']

Another way is to use the filter function. In Python 2:

>>> filter(lambda k: 'ab' in k, lst)
['ab', 'abc']

In Python 3, it returns an iterator instead of a list, but you can cast it:

>>> list(filter(lambda k: 'ab' in k, lst))
['ab', 'abc']

Though it's better practice to use a comprehension.

CSS list-style-image size

Thanks to Chris for the starting point here is a improvement which addresses the resizing of the images used, the use of first-child is just to indicate you could use a variety of icons within the list to give you full control.

ul li:first-child:before {
    content: '';
    display: inline-block;
    height: 25px;
    width: 35px;
    background-image: url('../images/Money.png');
    background-size: contain;
    background-repeat: no-repeat;
    margin-left: -35px;
}

This seems to work well in all modern browsers, you will need to ensure that the width and the negative margin left have the same value, hope it helps

Using continue in a switch statement

Yes, it's OK - it's just like using it in an if statement. Of course, you can't use a break to break out of a loop from inside a switch.

Spring Boot Adding Http Request Interceptors

You might also consider using the open source SpringSandwich library which lets you directly annotate in your Spring Boot controllers which interceptors to apply, much in the same way you annotate your url routes.

That way, no typo-prone Strings floating around -- SpringSandwich's method and class annotations easily survive refactoring and make it clear what's being applied where. (Disclosure: I'm the author).

How do I uninstall a package installed using npm link?

The package can be uninstalled using the same uninstall or rm command that can be used for removing installed packages. The only thing to keep in mind is that the link needs to be uninstalled globally - the --global flag needs to be provided.

In order to uninstall the globally linked foo package, the following command can be used (using sudo if necessary, depending on your setup and permissions)

sudo npm rm --global foo

This will uninstall the package.

To check whether a package is installed, the npm ls command can be used:

npm ls --global foo

How do I mount a host directory as a volume in docker compose

If you would like to mount a particular host directory (/disk1/prometheus-data in the following example) as a volume in the volumes section of the Docker Compose YAML file, you can do it as below, e.g.:

version: '3'

services:
  prometheus:
    image: prom/prometheus
    volumes:
      - prometheus-data:/prometheus

volumes:
  prometheus-data:
    driver: local
    driver_opts:
      o: bind
      type: none
      device: /disk1/prometheus-data

By the way, in prometheus's Dockerfile, You may find the VOLUME instruction as below, which marks it as holding externally mounted volumes from native host, etc. (Note however: this instruction is not a must though to mount a volume into a container.):

Dockerfile

...
VOLUME ["/prometheus"]
...

Split (explode) pandas dataframe string entry to separate rows

Based on the excellent @DMulligan's solution, here is a generic vectorized (no loops) function which splits a column of a dataframe into multiple rows, and merges it back to the original dataframe. It also uses a great generic change_column_order function from this answer.

def change_column_order(df, col_name, index):
    cols = df.columns.tolist()
    cols.remove(col_name)
    cols.insert(index, col_name)
    return df[cols]

def split_df(dataframe, col_name, sep):
    orig_col_index = dataframe.columns.tolist().index(col_name)
    orig_index_name = dataframe.index.name
    orig_columns = dataframe.columns
    dataframe = dataframe.reset_index()  # we need a natural 0-based index for proper merge
    index_col_name = (set(dataframe.columns) - set(orig_columns)).pop()
    df_split = pd.DataFrame(
        pd.DataFrame(dataframe[col_name].str.split(sep).tolist())
        .stack().reset_index(level=1, drop=1), columns=[col_name])
    df = dataframe.drop(col_name, axis=1)
    df = pd.merge(df, df_split, left_index=True, right_index=True, how='inner')
    df = df.set_index(index_col_name)
    df.index.name = orig_index_name
    # merge adds the column to the last place, so we need to move it back
    return change_column_order(df, col_name, orig_col_index)

Example:

df = pd.DataFrame([['a:b', 1, 4], ['c:d', 2, 5], ['e:f:g:h', 3, 6]], 
                  columns=['Name', 'A', 'B'], index=[10, 12, 13])
df
        Name    A   B
    10   a:b     1   4
    12   c:d     2   5
    13   e:f:g:h 3   6

split_df(df, 'Name', ':')
    Name    A   B
10   a       1   4
10   b       1   4
12   c       2   5
12   d       2   5
13   e       3   6
13   f       3   6    
13   g       3   6    
13   h       3   6    

Note that it preserves the original index and order of the columns. It also works with dataframes which have non-sequential index.

How do I create and store md5 passwords in mysql

Please don't use MD5 for password hashing. Such passwords can be cracked in milliseconds. You're sure to be pwned by cybercriminals.

PHP offers a high-quality and future proof password hashing subsystem based on a reliable random salt and multiple rounds of Rijndael / AES encryption.

When a user first provides a password you can hash it like this:

 $pass = 'whatever the user typed in';
 $hashed_password = password_hash( "secret pass phrase", PASSWORD_DEFAULT );

Then, store $hashed_password in a varchar(255) column in MySQL. Later, when the user wants to log in, you can retrieve the hashed password from MySQL and compare it to the password the user offered to log in.

 $pass = 'whatever the user typed in';
 $hashed_password = 'what you retrieved from MySQL for this user';
 if ( password_verify ( $pass , $hashed_password )) {
    /* future proof the password */
    if ( password_needs_rehash($hashed_password , PASSWORD_DEFAULT)) {
       /* recreate the hash */
       $rehashed_password = password_hash($pass, PASSWORD_DEFAULT );
       /* store the rehashed password in MySQL */
     }
     /* password verified, let the user in */
 }
 else {
     /* password not verified, tell the intruder to get lost */
 }

How does this future-proofing work? Future releases of PHP will adapt to match faster and easier to crack encryption. If it's necessary to rehash passwords to make them harder to crack, the future implementation of the password_needs_rehash() function will detect that.

Don't reinvent the flat tire. Use professionally designed and vetted open source code for security.

Prefer composition over inheritance?

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

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

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

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

Output:

Error when checking model input: expected convolution2d_input_1 to have 4 dimensions, but got array with shape (32, 32, 3)

Probably very trivial, but I solved it by just converting the input to numpy array.

For the neural network architecture,

    model = Sequential()
    model.add(Conv2D(32, (5, 5), activation="relu", input_shape=(32, 32, 3)))

When the input was,

    n_train = len(train_y_raw)
    train_X = [train_X_raw[:,:,:,i] for i in range(n_train)]
    train_y = [train_y_raw[i][0] for i in range(n_train)]

I got the error,enter image description here

But when I changed it to,

   n_train = len(train_y_raw)
   train_X = np.asarray([train_X_raw[:,:,:,i] for i in range(n_train)])
   train_y = np.asarray([train_y_raw[i][0] for i in range(n_train)])

It fixed the issue.

How do I convert from a string to an integer in Visual Basic?

You can use the following to convert string to int:

  • CInt(String) for ints
  • CDec(String) for decimals

For details refer to Type Conversion Functions (Visual Basic).

Converting from hex to string

For Unicode support:

public class HexadecimalEncoding
{
    public static string ToHexString(string str)
    {
        var sb = new StringBuilder();

        var bytes = Encoding.Unicode.GetBytes(str);
        foreach (var t in bytes)
        {
            sb.Append(t.ToString("X2"));
        }

        return sb.ToString(); // returns: "48656C6C6F20776F726C64" for "Hello world"
    }

    public static string FromHexString(string hexString)
    {
        var bytes = new byte[hexString.Length / 2];
        for (var i = 0; i < bytes.Length; i++)
        {
            bytes[i] = Convert.ToByte(hexString.Substring(i * 2, 2), 16);
        }

        return Encoding.Unicode.GetString(bytes); // returns: "Hello world" for "48656C6C6F20776F726C64"
    }
}

ProcessPhoenix.triggerRebirth(context);

The library will automatically finish the calling activity, kill the application process and restart the default application activity afterwards.

Redirect from an HTML page

You can do it in javascript:

location = "url";

Python date string to date object

If you are lazy and don't want to fight with string literals, you can just go with the parser module.

from dateutil import parser
dt = parser.parse("Jun 1 2005  1:33PM")
print(dt.year, dt.month, dt.day,dt.hour, dt.minute, dt.second)
>2005 6 1 13 33 0

Just a side note, as we are trying to match any string representation, it is 10x slower than strptime

Auto-increment primary key in SQL tables

  1. Presumably you are in the design of the table. If not: right click the table name - "Design".
  2. Click the required column.
  3. In "Column properties" (at the bottom), scroll to the "Identity Specification" section, expand it, then toggle "(Is Identity)" to "Yes".

Convert array values from string to int?

An alternative shorter method could be:

$r = explode(',', $s);
foreach ($r as &$i) $i = (int) $i;

It has the same performance as Method 3.

Bootstrap close responsive menu "on click"

Bootstrap 4 solution without any Javascript

Add attributes data-toggle="collapse" data-target="#navbarSupportedContent.show" to the div <div class="collapse navbar-collapse">

Make sure you provide the correct id in data-target

<div className="collapse navbar-collapse" id="navbarSupportedContent" data-toggle="collapse" data-target="#navbarSupportedContent.show">

.show is to avoid menu flickering in large resolutions

jquery function val() is not equivalent to "$(this).value="?

$(this).value is attempting to call the 'value' property of a jQuery object, which does not exist. Native JavaScript does have a 'value' property on certain HTML objects, but if you are operating on a jQuery object you must access the value by calling $(this).val().

Add directives from directive in AngularJS

You can actually handle all of this with just a simple template tag. See http://jsfiddle.net/m4ve9/ for an example. Note that I actually didn't need a compile or link property on the super-directive definition.

During the compilation process, Angular pulls in the template values before compiling, so you can attach any further directives there and Angular will take care of it for you.

If this is a super directive that needs to preserve the original internal content, you can use transclude : true and replace the inside with <ng-transclude></ng-transclude>

Hope that helps, let me know if anything is unclear

How can I call a WordPress shortcode within a template?

Make sure to enable the use of shortcodes in text widgets.

// To enable the use, add this in your *functions.php* file:
add_filter( 'widget_text', 'do_shortcode' );

// and then you can use it in any PHP file:  
<?php echo do_shortcode('[YOUR-SHORTCODE-NAME/TAG]'); ?>

Test credit card numbers for use with PayPal sandbox

If a credit card is already added to a PayPal account then it won't let you use that card to process directly with Payments Advanced. The system expects buyers to login to PayPal and just choose that credit card as their funding source if they want to pay with it.

As for testing on the sandbox, I've always used old, expired credit cards I have laying around and they seem to work fine for me.

You could always try the ones starting on page 87 of the PayFlow documentation, too. They should work.

Sorting a List<int>

Sort list of int descending you could just sort first and reverse

class Program
{
    static void Main(string[] args)
    {

        List<int> myList = new List<int>();

        myList.Add(38);
        myList.Add(34);
        myList.Add(35);
        myList.Add(36);
        myList.Add(37);


        myList.Sort();
        myList.Reverse();
        myList.ForEach(Console.WriteLine);


    }



}

What are all the possible values for HTTP "Content-Type" header?

jQuery: Performing synchronous AJAX requests

You're using the ajax function incorrectly. Since it's synchronous it'll return the data inline like so:

var remote = $.ajax({
    type: "GET",
    url: remote_url,

}).responseText;

How can I inspect the file system of a failed `docker build`?

What I would do is comment out the Dockerfile below and including the offending line. Then you can run the container and run the docker commands by hand, and look at the logs in the usual way. E.g. if the Dockerfile is

RUN foo
RUN bar
RUN baz

and it's dying at bar I would do

RUN foo
# RUN bar
# RUN baz

Then

$ docker build -t foo .
$ docker run -it foo bash
container# bar
...grep logs...

JavaScript replace \n with <br />

Use a regular expression for .replace().:

messagetoSend = messagetoSend.replace(/\n/g, "<br />");

If those linebreaks were made by windows-encoding, you will also have to replace the carriage return.

messagetoSend = messagetoSend.replace(/\r\n/g, "<br />");

Grouping into interval of 5 minutes within a time range

You're probably going to have to break up your timestamp into ymd:HM and use DIV 5 to split the minutes up into 5-minute bins -- something like

select year(a.timestamp), 
       month(a.timestamp), 
       hour(a.timestamp), 
       minute(a.timestamp) DIV 5,
       name, 
       count(b.name)
FROM time a, id b
WHERE a.user = b.user AND a.id = b.id AND b.name = 'John' 
      AND a.timestamp BETWEEN '2010-11-16 10:30:00' AND '2010-11-16 11:00:00'
GROUP BY year(a.timestamp), 
       month(a.timestamp), 
       hour(a.timestamp), 
       minute(a.timestamp) DIV 12

...and then futz the output in client code to appear the way you like it. Or, you can build up the whole date string using the sql concat operatorinstead of getting separate columns, if you like.

select concat(year(a.timestamp), "-", month(a.timestamp), "-" ,day(a.timestamp), 
       " " , lpad(hour(a.timestamp),2,'0'), ":", 
       lpad((minute(a.timestamp) DIV 5) * 5, 2, '0'))

...and then group on that

Installing Java on OS X 10.9 (Mavericks)

If you only want to install the latest official JRE from Oracle, you can get it there, install it, and export the new JAVA_HOME in the terminal.

That's the cleanest way I found to install the latest JRE.

You can add the export JAVA_HOME line in your .bashrc to have java permanently in your Terminal:

echo export JAVA_HOME=\"/Library/Internet Plug-Ins/JavaAppletPlugin.plugin/Contents/Home\" >> ~/.bashrc

How to replace multiple patterns at once with sed?

sed is a stream editor. It searches and replaces greedily. The only way to do what you asked for is using an intermediate substitution pattern and changing it back in the end.

echo 'abcd' | sed -e 's/ab/xy/;s/cd/ab/;s/xy/cd/'

In c, in bool, true == 1 and false == 0?

You neglected to say which version of C you are concerned about. Let's assume it's this one:

http://www.open-std.org/jtc1/sc22/wg14/www/docs/n1570.pdf

As you can see by reading the specification, the standard definitions of true and false are 1 and 0, yes.

If your question is about a different version of C, or about non-standard definitions for true and false, then ask a more specific question.

How to re-index all subarray elements of a multidimensional array?

$array[9] = 'Apple';

$array[0] = 'Apple';
$array[1] = 'Orange';
$array[2] = 'Peach';

Expression must be a modifiable lvalue

The assignment operator has lower precedence than &&, so your condition is equivalent to:

if ((match == 0 && k) = m)

But the left-hand side of this is an rvalue, namely the boolean resulting from the evaluation of the sub­expression match == 0 && k, so you cannot assign to it.

By contrast, comparison has higher precedence, so match == 0 && k == m is equivalent to:

if ((match == 0) && (k == m))

How to add a class to a given element?

Just to elaborate on what others have said, multiple CSS classes are combined in a single string, delimited by spaces. Thus, if you wanted to hard-code it, it would simply look like this:

<div class="someClass otherClass yetAnotherClass">
      <img ... id="image1" name="image1" />
</div>

From there you can easily derive the javascript necessary to add a new class... just append a space followed by the new class to the element's className property. Knowing this, you can also write a function to remove a class later should the need arise.

Python's equivalent of && (logical-and) in an if-statement

How to 'insert if not exists' in MySQL?

Solution:

INSERT INTO `table` (`value1`, `value2`) 
SELECT 'stuff for value1', 'stuff for value2' FROM DUAL 
WHERE NOT EXISTS (SELECT * FROM `table` 
      WHERE `value1`='stuff for value1' AND `value2`='stuff for value2' LIMIT 1) 

Explanation:

The innermost query

SELECT * FROM `table` 
      WHERE `value1`='stuff for value1' AND `value2`='stuff for value2' LIMIT 1

used as the WHERE NOT EXISTS-condition detects if there already exists a row with the data to be inserted. After one row of this kind is found, the query may stop, hence the LIMIT 1 (micro-optimization, may be omitted).

The intermediate query

SELECT 'stuff for value1', 'stuff for value2' FROM DUAL

represents the values to be inserted. DUAL refers to a special one row, one column table present by default in all Oracle databases (see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DUAL_table). On a MySQL-Server version 5.7.26 I got a valid query when omitting FROM DUAL, but older versions (like 5.5.60) seem to require the FROM information. By using WHERE NOT EXISTS the intermediate query returns an empty result set if the innermost query found matching data.

The outer query

INSERT INTO `table` (`value1`, `value2`) 

inserts the data, if any is returned by the intermediate query.

Change Schema Name Of Table In SQL

Create Schema :

    TRANSFER dbo.Employees

How to hide a column (GridView) but still access its value?

If you do have a TemplateField inside the columns of your GridView and you have, say, a control named blah bound to it. Then place the outlook_id as a HiddenField there like this:

<asp:TemplateField HeaderText="OutlookID">
    <ItemTemplate>
        <asp:Label ID="blah" runat="server">Existing Control</asp:Label>
        <asp:HiddenField ID="HiddenOutlookID" runat="server" Value='<%#Eval("Outlook_ID") %>'/>
    </ItemTemplate>
</asp:TemplateField>

Now, grab the row in the event you want the outlook_id and then access the control.
For RowDataBound access it like:

string outlookid = ((HiddenField)e.Row.FindControl("HiddenOutlookID")).Value;

Do get back, if you have trouble accessing the clicked row. And don't forget to mention the event at which you would like to access that.

What is 'PermSize' in Java?

This blog post gives a nice explanation and some background. Basically, the "permanent generation" (whose size is given by PermSize) is used to store things that the JVM has to allocate space for, but which will not (normally) be garbage-collected (hence "permanent") (+). That means for example loaded classes and static fields.

There is also a FAQ on garbage collection directly from Sun, which answers some questions about the permanent generation. Finally, here's a blog post with a lot of technical detail.

(+) Actually parts of the permanent generation will be GCed, e.g. class objects will be removed when a class is unloaded. But that was uncommon when the permanent generation was introduced into the JVM, hence the name.

How to detect iPhone 5 (widescreen devices)?

I've taken the liberty to put the macro by Macmade into a C function, and name it properly because it detects widescreen availability and NOT necessarily the iPhone 5.

The macro also doesn't detect running on an iPhone 5 in case where the project doesn't include the [email protected]. Without the new Default image, the iPhone 5 will report a regular 480x320 screen size (in points). So the check isn't just for widescreen availability but for widescreen mode being enabled as well.

BOOL isWidescreenEnabled()
{
    return (BOOL)(fabs((double)[UIScreen mainScreen].bounds.size.height - 
                                               (double)568) < DBL_EPSILON);
}

Difference between a Structure and a Union

Here's the short answer: a struct is a record structure: each element in the struct allocates new space. So, a struct like

struct foobarbazquux_t {
    int foo;
    long bar;
    double baz; 
    long double quux;
}

allocates at least (sizeof(int)+sizeof(long)+sizeof(double)+sizeof(long double)) bytes in memory for each instance. ("At least" because architecture alignment constraints may force the compiler to pad the struct.)

On the other hand,

union foobarbazquux_u {
    int foo;
    long bar;
    double baz; 
    long double quux;
}

allocates one chunk of memory and gives it four aliases. So sizeof(union foobarbazquux_u) = max((sizeof(int),sizeof(long),sizeof(double),sizeof(long double)), again with the possibility of some addition for alignments.

HttpWebRequest-The remote server returned an error: (400) Bad Request

400 Bad request Error will be thrown due to incorrect authentication entries.

  1. Check if your API URL is correct or wrong. Don't append or prepend spaces.
  2. Verify that your username and password are valid. Please check any spelling mistake(s) while entering.

Note: Mostly due to Incorrect authentication entries due to spell changes will occur 400 Bad request.

100% Min Height CSS layout

First you should create a div with id='footer' after your content div and then simply do this.

Your HTML should look like this:

<html>
    <body>
        <div id="content">
            ...
        </div>
        <div id="footer"></div>
    </body>
</html>

And the CSS:

?html, body {
    height: 100%;   
}
#content {
    height: 100%;
}
#footer {
    clear: both;        
}

How to copy a map?

I'd use recursion just in case so you can deep copy the map and avoid bad surprises in case you were to change a map element that is a map itself.

Here's an example in a utils.go:

package utils

func CopyMap(m map[string]interface{}) map[string]interface{} {
    cp := make(map[string]interface{})
    for k, v := range m {
        vm, ok := v.(map[string]interface{})
        if ok {
            cp[k] = CopyMap(vm)
        } else {
            cp[k] = v
        }
    }

    return cp
}

And its test file (i.e. utils_test.go):

package utils

import (
    "testing"

    "github.com/stretchr/testify/require"
)

func TestCopyMap(t *testing.T) {
    m1 := map[string]interface{}{
        "a": "bbb",
        "b": map[string]interface{}{
            "c": 123,
        },
    }

    m2 := CopyMap(m1)

    m1["a"] = "zzz"
    delete(m1, "b")

    require.Equal(t, map[string]interface{}{"a": "zzz"}, m1)
    require.Equal(t, map[string]interface{}{
        "a": "bbb",
        "b": map[string]interface{}{
            "c": 123,
        },
    }, m2)
}

It should easy enough to adapt if you need the map key to be something else instead of a string.

Adding an arbitrary line to a matplotlib plot in ipython notebook

Matplolib now allows for 'annotation lines' as the OP was seeking. The annotate() function allows several forms of connecting paths and a headless and tailess arrow, i.e., a simple line, is one of them.

ax.annotate("",
            xy=(0.2, 0.2), xycoords='data',
            xytext=(0.8, 0.8), textcoords='data',
            arrowprops=dict(arrowstyle="-",
                      connectionstyle="arc3, rad=0"),
            )

In the documentation it says you can draw only an arrow with an empty string as the first argument.

From the OP's example:

%matplotlib notebook
import numpy as np
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

np.random.seed(5)
x = np.arange(1, 101)
y = 20 + 3 * x + np.random.normal(0, 60, 100)
plt.plot(x, y, "o")


# draw vertical line from (70,100) to (70, 250)
plt.annotate("",
              xy=(70, 100), xycoords='data',
              xytext=(70, 250), textcoords='data',
              arrowprops=dict(arrowstyle="-",
                              connectionstyle="arc3,rad=0."), 
              )

# draw diagonal line from (70, 90) to (90, 200)
plt.annotate("",
              xy=(70, 90), xycoords='data',
              xytext=(90, 200), textcoords='data',
              arrowprops=dict(arrowstyle="-",
                              connectionstyle="arc3,rad=0."), 
              )

plt.show()

Example inline image

Just as in the approach in gcalmettes's answer, you can choose the color, line width, line style, etc..

Here is an alteration to a portion of the code that would make one of the two example lines red, wider, and not 100% opaque.

# draw vertical line from (70,100) to (70, 250)
plt.annotate("",
              xy=(70, 100), xycoords='data',
              xytext=(70, 250), textcoords='data',
              arrowprops=dict(arrowstyle="-",
                              edgecolor = "red",
                              linewidth=5,
                              alpha=0.65,
                              connectionstyle="arc3,rad=0."), 
              )

You can also add curve to the connecting line by adjusting the connectionstyle.

Why when I transfer a file through SFTP, it takes longer than FTP?

Your results make sense. Since FTP operates over a non-encrypted channel it is faster than SFTP (which is subsystem on top of the SSH version 2 protocol). Also remember that SFTP is a packet based protocol unlike FTP which is command based.

Each packet in SFTP is encrypted before being written to the outgoing socket from the client and subsequently decrypted when received by the server. This of-course leads to slow transfer rates but very secure transfer. Using compression such as zlib with SFTP improves the transfer time but still it won't be anywhere near plain text FTP. Perhaps a better comparison is to compare SFTP with FTPS which both use encryption?

Speed for SFTP depends on the cipher used for encryption/decryption, the compression used e.g. zlib, packet sizes and buffer sizes used for the socket connection.

Angular 2 Unit Tests: Cannot find name 'describe'

I'm on Angular 6, Typescript 2.7, and I'm using Jest framework to unit test. I had @types/jest installed and added on typeRoots inside tsconfig.json

But still have the display error below (i.e: on terminal there is no errors)

cannot find name describe

And adding the import :

import {} from 'jest'; // in my case or jasmine if you're using jasmine

doesn't technically do anything, so I thought, that there is an import somewhere causing this problem, then I found, that if delete the file

tsconfig.spec.json

in the src/ folder, solved the problem for me. As @types is imported before inside the rootTypes.

I recommend you to do same and delete this file, no needed config is inside. (ps: if you're in the same case as I am)

How to delete selected text in the vi editor

Detect all changes to a <input type="text"> (immediately) using JQuery

Why can't I change my input value in React even with the onChange listener

In react, state will not change until you do it by using this.setState({});. That is why your console message showing old values.

Pass variables by reference in JavaScript

Workaround to pass variable like by reference:

var a = 1;
inc = function(variableName) {
  window[variableName] += 1;
};

inc('a');

alert(a); // 2

And yup, actually you can do it without access a global variable:

inc = (function () {
    var variableName = 0;

    var init = function () {
        variableName += 1;
        alert(variableName);
    }

    return init;
})();

inc();

How to combine multiple inline style objects?

So basically I'm looking at this in the wrong way. From what I see, this is not a React specific question, more of a JavaScript question in how do I combine two JavaScript objects together (without clobbering similarly named properties).

In this StackOverflow answer it explains it. How can I merge properties of two JavaScript objects dynamically?

In jQuery I can use the extend method.

Where are shared preferences stored?

Shared Preferences are the key/value pairs that we can store. They are internal type of storage which means we do not have to create an external database to store it. To see it go to, 1) Go to View in the menu bar. Select Tool Windows. 2) Click on Device File Explorer. 3) Device File Explorer opens up in the right hand side. 4) Find the data folder and click on it. 5) In the data folder, you can select another data folder. 6) Try to search for your package name in this data folder. Ex: com.example.com 7) Then Click on shared_prefs and open the .xml file.

Hope this helps!

What is the difference between attribute and property?

In Java (or other languages), using Property/Attribute depends on usage:

  • Property used when value doesn't change very often (usually used at startup or for environment variable)

  • Attributes is a value (object child) of an Element (object) which can change very often/all the time and be or not persistent

How to enable authentication on MongoDB through Docker?

@jbochniak: Thanks, although at first read I thought I've already discovered all of this, it turned out that your example (esp. the version of the Mongo Docker image) helped me out!

That version (v3.4.2) and the v3.4 (currently corresponding to v3.4.3) still support 'MONGO_INITDB_ROOT' specified through those variables, as of v3.5 (at least tags '3' and 'latest') DON'T work as described in your answer and in the docs.

I quickly had a look at the code on GitHub, but saw similar usage of these variables and couldn't find the bug immediately, should do so before filing this as a bug...

Jackson uses @ConstructorProperties. This should fix Lombok @Data as well.

href="tel:" and mobile numbers

When dialing a number within the country you are in, you still need to dial the national trunk number before the rest of the number. For example, in Australia one would dial:

   0 - trunk prefix
   2 - Area code for New South Wales
6555 - STD code for a specific telephone exchange
1234 - Telephone Exchange specific extension.

For a mobile phone this becomes

   0 -      trunk prefix
   4 -      Area code for a mobile telephone
1234 5678 - Mobile telephone number

Now, when I want to dial via the international trunk, you need to drop the trunk prefix and replace it with the international dialing prefix

   + -      Short hand for the country trunk number
  61 -      Country code for Australia
   4 -      Area code for a mobile telephone
1234 5678 - Mobile telephone number

This is why you often find that the first digit of a telephone number is dropped when dialling internationally, even when using international prefixing to dial within the same country.

So as per the trunk prefix for Germany drop the 0 and add the +49 for Germany's international calling code (for example) giving:

Eclipse CDT: Symbol 'cout' could not be resolved

I have created the Makefile project using cmake on Ubuntu 16.04.

When created the eclipse project for the Makefiles which cmake generated I created the new project like so:

File --> new --> Makefile project with existing code.

Only after couple of times doing that I have noticed that the default setting for the "Toolchain for indexer settings" is none. In my case I have changed it to Linux GCC and all the errors disappeared.

Hope it helps and let me know if it is not a legit solution.

Cheers,

What are the benefits of using C# vs F# or F# vs C#?

It's like asking what's the benefit of a hammer over a screwdriver. At an extremely high level, both do essentially the same thing, but at the implementation level it's important to select the optimal tool for what you're trying to accomplish. There are tasks that are difficult and time-consuming in c# but easy in f# - like trying to pound a nail with a screwdriver. You can do it, for sure - it's just not ideal.

Data manipulation is one example I can personally point to where f# really shines and c# can potentially be unwieldy. On the flip side, I'd say (generally speaking) complex stateful UI is easier in OO (c#) than functional (f#).

i tried in this model as per my requirements i need to store a date when ever a object is created later i want to retrieve all the records (documents ) between two dates in my html file i was using the following format mm/dd/yyyy

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN">

<html>
<head>

    <script>
//jquery
    $(document).ready(function(){  
    $("#select_date").click(function() { 
    $.ajax({
    type: "post",
    url: "xxx", 
    datatype: "html",
    data: $("#period").serialize(),  
    success: function(data){
    alert(data);
    } ,//success

    }); //event triggered

    });//ajax
    });//jquery  
    </script>

    <title></title>
</head>

<body>
    <form id="period" name='period'>
        from <input id="selecteddate" name="selecteddate1" type="text"> to 
        <input id="select_date" type="button" value="selected">
    </form>
</body>
</html>

in my py (python) file i converted it into "iso fomate" in following way

date_str1   = request.POST["SelectedDate1"] 
SelectedDate1   = datetime.datetime.strptime(date_str1, '%m/%d/%Y').isoformat()

and saved in my dbmongo collection with "SelectedDate" as field in my collection

to retrieve data or documents between to 2 dates i used following query

db.collection.find( "SelectedDate": {'$gte': SelectedDate1,'$lt': SelectedDate2}})

TypeError: cannot perform reduce with flexible type

It looks like your 'trainData' is a list of strings:

['-214' '-153' '-58' ..., '36' '191' '-37']

Change your 'trainData' to a numeric type.

How to effectively work with multiple files in Vim

Adding another answer as this is not covered by any of the answer

To change all buffers to tab view.

 :tab sball

will open all the buffers to tab view. Then we can use any tab related commands

gt or :tabn           "    go to next tab
gT or :tabp or :tabN  "    go to previous tab

details at :help tab-page-commands.

We can instruct vim to open ,as tab view, multiple files by vim -p file1 file2. alias vim='vim -p' will be useful.
The same thing can also be achieved by having following autocommand in ~/.vimrc

 au VimEnter * if !&diff | tab all | tabfirst | endif

Anyway to answer the question: To add to arg list: arga file,

To delete from arg list: argd pattern

grabbing first row in a mysql query only

To return only one row use LIMIT 1:

SELECT *
FROM tbl_foo
WHERE name = 'sarmen'
LIMIT 1

It doesn't make sense to say 'first row' or 'last row' unless you have an ORDER BY clause. Assuming you add an ORDER BY clause then you can use LIMIT in the following ways:

  • To get the first row use LIMIT 1.
  • To get the 2nd row you can use limit with an offset: LIMIT 1, 1.
  • To get the last row invert the order (change ASC to DESC or vice versa) then use LIMIT 1.

How can I include all JavaScript files in a directory via JavaScript file?

You could use something like Grunt Include Source. It gives you a nice syntax that preprocesses your HTML, and then includes whatever you want. This also means, if you set up your build tasks correctly, you can have all these includes in dev mode, but not in prod mode, which is pretty cool.

If you aren't using Grunt for your project, there's probably similar tools for Gulp, or other task runners.

Most efficient way to check for DBNull and then assign to a variable?

This is how I handle reading from DataRows

///<summary>
/// Handles operations for Enumerations
///</summary>
public static class DataRowUserExtensions
{
    /// <summary>
    /// Gets the specified data row.
    /// </summary>
    /// <typeparam name="T"></typeparam>
    /// <param name="dataRow">The data row.</param>
    /// <param name="key">The key.</param>
    /// <returns></returns>
    public static T Get<T>(this DataRow dataRow, string key)
    {
        return (T) ChangeTypeTo<T>(dataRow[key]);
    }

    private static object ChangeTypeTo<T>(this object value)
    {
        Type underlyingType = typeof (T);
        if (underlyingType == null)
            throw new ArgumentNullException("value");

        if (underlyingType.IsGenericType && underlyingType.GetGenericTypeDefinition().Equals(typeof (Nullable<>)))
        {
            if (value == null)
                return null;
            var converter = new NullableConverter(underlyingType);
            underlyingType = converter.UnderlyingType;
        }

        // Try changing to Guid  
        if (underlyingType == typeof (Guid))
        {
            try
            {
                return new Guid(value.ToString());
            }
            catch

            {
                return null;
            }
        }
        return Convert.ChangeType(value, underlyingType);
    }
}

Usage example:

if (dbRow.Get<int>("Type") == 1)
{
    newNode = new TreeViewNode
                  {
                      ToolTip = dbRow.Get<string>("Name"),
                      Text = (dbRow.Get<string>("Name").Length > 25 ? dbRow.Get<string>("Name").Substring(0, 25) + "..." : dbRow.Get<string>("Name")),
                      ImageUrl = "file.gif",
                      ID = dbRow.Get<string>("ReportPath"),
                      Value = dbRow.Get<string>("ReportDescription").Replace("'", "\'"),
                      NavigateUrl = ("?ReportType=" + dbRow.Get<string>("ReportPath"))

How to read file from res/raw by name

You can read files in raw/res using getResources().openRawResource(R.raw.myfilename).

BUT there is an IDE limitation that the file name you use can only contain lower case alphanumeric characters and dot. So file names like XYZ.txt or my_data.bin will not be listed in R.

Excel VBA, error 438 "object doesn't support this property or method

The Error is here

lastrow = wsPOR.Range("A" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row + 1

wsPOR is a workbook and not a worksheet. If you are working with "Sheet1" of that workbook then try this

lastrow = wsPOR.Sheets("Sheet1").Range("A" & _
          wsPOR.Sheets("Sheet1").Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row + 1

Similarly

wsPOR.Range("A2:G" & lastrow).Select

should be

wsPOR.Sheets("Sheet1").Range("A2:G" & lastrow).Select

What do .c and .h file extensions mean to C?

.c : 'C' source code
.h : Header file

Usually, the .c files contain the implementation, and .h files contain the "interface" of an implementation.

event Action<> vs event EventHandler<>

Looking at Standard .NET event patterns we find

The standard signature for a .NET event delegate is:

void OnEventRaised(object sender, EventArgs args);

[...]

The argument list contains two arguments: the sender, and the event arguments. The compile time type of sender is System.Object, even though you likely know a more derived type that would always be correct. By convention, use object.

Below on same page we find an example of the typical event definition which is something like

public event EventHandler<EventArgs> EventName;

Had we defined

class MyClass
{
  public event Action<MyClass, EventArgs> EventName;
}

the handler could have been

void OnEventRaised(MyClass sender, EventArgs args);

where sender has the correct (more derived) type.

jquery loop on Json data using $.each

Have you converted your data from string to JavaScript object?

You can do it with data = eval('(' + string_data + ')'); or, which is safer, data = JSON.parse(string_data); but later will only works in FF 3.5 or if you include json2.js

jQuery since 1.4.1 also have function for that, $.parseJSON().

But actually, $.getJSON() should give you already parsed json object, so you should just check everything thoroughly, there is little mistake buried somewhere, like you might have forgotten to quote something in json, or one of the brackets is missing.

Maven Jacoco Configuration - Exclude classes/packages from report not working

you can configure the coverage exclusion in the sonar properties, outside of the configuration of the jacoco plugin:

How do I define the name of image built with docker-compose

According to 3.9 version of Docker compose, you can use image: myapp:tag to specify name and tag.

version: "3.9"
services:
  webapp:
    build:
      context: .
      dockerfile: Dockerfile
    image: webapp:tag

Reference: https://docs.docker.com/compose/compose-file/compose-file-v3/

Floating Div Over An Image

You've got the right idea. Looks to me like you just need to change .tag's position:relative to position:absolute, and add position:relative to .container.

How to start a background process in Python?

You probably want the answer to "How to call an external command in Python".

The simplest approach is to use the os.system function, e.g.:

import os
os.system("some_command &")

Basically, whatever you pass to the system function will be executed the same as if you'd passed it to the shell in a script.

Create an array of integers property in Objective-C

I'm just speculating:

I think that the variable defined in the ivars allocates the space right in the object. This prevents you from creating accessors because you can't give an array by value to a function but only through a pointer. Therefore you have to use a pointer in the ivars:

int *doubleDigits;

And then allocate the space for it in the init-method:

@synthesize doubleDigits;

- (id)init {
    if (self = [super init]) {
        doubleDigits = malloc(sizeof(int) * 10);
        /*
         * This works, but is dangerous (forbidden) because bufferDoubleDigits
         * gets deleted at the end of -(id)init because it's on the stack:
         * int bufferDoubleDigits[] = {1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10};
         * [self setDoubleDigits:bufferDoubleDigits];
         *
         * If you want to be on the safe side use memcpy() (needs #include <string.h>)
         * doubleDigits = malloc(sizeof(int) * 10);
         * int bufferDoubleDigits[] = {1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10};
         * memcpy(doubleDigits, bufferDoubleDigits, sizeof(int) * 10);
         */
    }
    return self;
}

- (void)dealloc {
    free(doubleDigits);
    [super dealloc];
}

In this case the interface looks like this:

@interface MyClass : NSObject {
    int *doubleDigits;
}
@property int *doubleDigits;

Edit:

I'm really unsure wether it's allowed to do this, are those values really on the stack or are they stored somewhere else? They are probably stored on the stack and therefore not safe to use in this context. (See the question on initializer lists)

int bufferDoubleDigits[] = {1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10};
[self setDoubleDigits:bufferDoubleDigits];

Call method when home button pressed

The HOME button cannot be intercepted by applications. This is a by-design behavior in Android. The reason is to prevent malicious apps from gaining control over your phone (If the user cannot press back or home, he might never be able to exit the app). The Home button is considered the user's "safe zone" and will always launch the user's configured home app.

The only exception to the above is any app configured as home replacement. Which means it has the following declared in its AndroidManifest.xml for the relevant activity:

<intent-filter>
   <action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
   <category android:name="android.intent.category.HOME" />
   <category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" />
</intent-filter>

When pressing the home button, the current home app's activity's onNewIntent will be called.

What is an abstract class in PHP?

  • Abstract Class contains only declare the method's signature, they can't define the implementation.
  • Abstraction class are defined using the keyword abstract .
  • Abstract Class is not possible to implement multiple inheritance.
  • Latest version of PHP 5 has introduces abstract classes and methods.
  • Classes defined as abstract , we are unable to create the object ( may not instantiated )

How to change the background color of Action Bar's Option Menu in Android 4.2?

I was able to change colour of action overflow by just putting hex value at:

    <!-- The beef: background color for Action Bar overflow menu -->

    <item name="android:popupBackground">HEX VALUE OF COLOR</item>
</style>

Uninitialized Constant MessagesController

Your model is @Messages, change it to @message.

To change it like you should use migration:

def change   rename_table :old_table_name, :new_table_name end 

Of course do not create that file by hand but use rails generator:

rails g migration ChangeMessagesToMessage 

That will generate new file with proper timestamp in name in 'db dir. Then run:

rake db:migrate 

And your app should be fine since then.

Pytesseract : "TesseractNotFound Error: tesseract is not installed or it's not in your path", how do I fix this?

From https://pypi.org/project/pytesseract/ :

# Include the above line, if you don't have tesseract executable in your PATH
# Example tesseract_cmd: 'C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Tesseract-OCR\\tesseract'

How can I save a screenshot directly to a file in Windows?

Little known fact: in most standard Windows (XP) dialogs, you can hit Ctrl+C to have a textual copy of the content of the dialog.
Example: open a file in Notepad, hit space, close the window, hit Ctrl+C on the Confirm Exit dialog, cancel, paste in Notepad the text of the dialog.
Unrelated to your direct question, but I though it would be nice to mention in this thread.

Beside, indeed, you need a third party software to do the screenshot, but you don't need to fire the big Photoshop for that. Something free and lightweight like IrfanWiew or XnView can do the job. I use MWSnap to copy arbitrary parts of the screen. I wrote a little AutoHotkey script calling GDI+ functions to do screenshots. Etc.

What is the http-header "X-XSS-Protection"?

This response header can be used to configure a user-agent's built in reflective XSS protection. Currently, only Microsoft's Internet Explorer, Google Chrome and Safari (WebKit) support this header.

Internet Explorer 8 included a new feature to help prevent reflected cross-site scripting attacks, known as the XSS Filter. This filter runs by default in the Internet, Trusted, and Restricted security zones. Local Intranet zone pages may opt-in to the protection using the same header.

About the header that you posted in your question,

The header X-XSS-Protection: 1; mode=block enables the XSS Filter. Rather than sanitize the page, when a XSS attack is detected, the browser will prevent rendering of the page.

In March of 2010, we added to IE8 support for a new token in the X-XSS-Protection header, mode=block.

X-XSS-Protection: 1; mode=block

When this token is present, if a potential XSS Reflection attack is detected, Internet Explorer will prevent rendering of the page. Instead of attempting to sanitize the page to surgically remove the XSS attack, IE will render only “#”.

Internet Explorer recognizes a possible cross-site scripting attack. It logs the event and displays an appropriate message to the user. The MSDN article describes how this header works.

How this filter works in IE,

More on this article, https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/ie/2008/07/02/ie8-security-part-iv-the-xss-filter/

The XSS Filter operates as an IE8 component with visibility into all requests / responses flowing through the browser. When the filter discovers likely XSS in a cross-site request, it identifies and neuters the attack if it is replayed in the server’s response. Users are not presented with questions they are unable to answer – IE simply blocks the malicious script from executing.

With the new XSS Filter, IE8 Beta 2 users encountering a Type-1 XSS attack will see a notification like the following:

IE8 XSS Attack Notification

The page has been modified and the XSS attack is blocked.

In this case, the XSS Filter has identified a cross-site scripting attack in the URL. It has neutered this attack as the identified script was replayed back into the response page. In this way, the filter is effective without modifying an initial request to the server or blocking an entire response.

The Cross-Site Scripting Filter event is logged when Windows Internet Explorer 8 detects and mitigates a cross-site scripting (XSS) attack. Cross-site scripting attacks occur when one website, generally malicious, injects (adds) JavaScript code into otherwise legitimate requests to another website. The original request is generally innocent, such as a link to another page or a Common Gateway Interface (CGI) script providing a common service (such as a guestbook). The injected script generally attempts to access privileged information or services that the second website does not intend to allow. The response or the request generally reflects results back to the malicious website. The XSS Filter, a feature new to Internet Explorer 8, detects JavaScript in URL and HTTP POST requests. If JavaScript is detected, the XSS Filter searches evidence of reflection, information that would be returned to the attacking website if the attacking request were submitted unchanged. If reflection is detected, the XSS Filter sanitizes the original request so that the additional JavaScript cannot be executed. The XSS Filter then logs that action as a Cross-Site Script Filter event. The following image shows an example of a site that is modified to prevent a cross-site scripting attack.

Source: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd565647(v=vs.85).aspx

Web developers may wish to disable the filter for their content. They can do so by setting an HTTP header:

X-XSS-Protection: 0

Draw line in UIView

Swift 3 and Swift 4

This is how you can draw a gray line at the end of your view (same idea as b123400's answer)

class CustomView: UIView {

    override func draw(_ rect: CGRect) {
        super.draw(rect)
        
        if let context = UIGraphicsGetCurrentContext() {
            context.setStrokeColor(UIColor.gray.cgColor)
            context.setLineWidth(1)
            context.move(to: CGPoint(x: 0, y: bounds.height))
            context.addLine(to: CGPoint(x: bounds.width, y: bounds.height))
            context.strokePath()
        }
    }
}

Is JavaScript a pass-by-reference or pass-by-value language?

  1. primitive type variable like string,number are always pass as pass by value.
  2. Array and Object is passed as pass by reference or pass by value based on these two condition.

    • if you are changing value of that Object or array with new Object or Array then it is pass by Value.

      object1 = {item: "car"}; array1=[1,2,3];

    here you are assigning new object or array to old one.you are not changing the value of property of old object.so it is pass by value.

    • if you are changing a property value of an object or array then it is pass by Reference.

      object1.key1= "car"; array1[0]=9;

    here you are changing a property value of old object.you are not assigning new object or array to old one.so it is pass by reference.

Code

    function passVar(object1, object2, number1) {

        object1.key1= "laptop";
        object2 = {
            key2: "computer"
        };
        number1 = number1 + 1;
    }

    var object1 = {
        key1: "car"
    };
    var object2 = {
        key2: "bike"
    };
    var number1 = 10;

    passVar(object1, object2, number1);
    console.log(object1.key1);
    console.log(object2.key2);
    console.log(number1);

Output: -

Connecting to a network folder with username/password in Powershell

At first glance one really wants to use New-PSDrive supplying it credentials.

> New-PSDrive -Name P -PSProvider FileSystem -Root \\server\share -Credential domain\user

Fails!

New-PSDrive : Cannot retrieve the dynamic parameters for the cmdlet. Dynamic parameters for NewDrive cannot be retrieved for the 'FileSystem' provider. The provider does not support the use of credentials. Please perform the operation again without specifying credentials.

The documentation states that you can provide a PSCredential object but if you look closer the cmdlet does not support this yet. Maybe in the next version I guess.

Therefore you can either use net use or the WScript.Network object, calling the MapNetworkDrive function:

$net = new-object -ComObject WScript.Network
$net.MapNetworkDrive("u:", "\\server\share", $false, "domain\user", "password")

Edit for New-PSDrive in PowerShell 3.0

Apparently with newer versions of PowerShell, the New-PSDrive cmdlet works to map network shares with credentials!

New-PSDrive -Name P -PSProvider FileSystem -Root \\Server01\Public -Credential user\domain -Persist

How do I find out what type each object is in a ArrayList<Object>?

If you expect the data to be numeric in some form, and all you are interested in doing is converting the result to a numeric value, I would suggest:

XPath to get all child nodes (elements, comments, and text) without parent

From the documentation of XPath ( http://www.w3.org/TR/xpath/#location-paths ):

child::* selects all element children of the context node

child::text() selects all text node children of the context node

child::node() selects all the children of the context node, whatever their node type

So I guess your answer is:

$doc/PRESENTEDIN/X/child::node()

And if you want a flatten array of all nested nodes:

How do you reverse a string in place in C or C++?

In case you are using GLib, it has two functions for that, g_strreverse() and g_utf8_strreverse()

Returning Month Name in SQL Server Query

basically this ...

declare @currentdate datetime = getdate()
select left(datename(month,DATEADD(MONTH, -1, GETDATE())),3)
union all
select left(datename(month,(DATEADD(MONTH, -2, GETDATE()))),3)
union all
select left(datename(month,(DATEADD(MONTH, -3, GETDATE()))),3)

Simultaneously merge multiple data.frames in a list

Reduce makes this fairly easy:

merged.data.frame = Reduce(function(...) merge(..., all=T), list.of.data.frames)

Here's a fully example using some mock data:

set.seed(1)
list.of.data.frames = list(data.frame(x=1:10, a=1:10), data.frame(x=5:14, b=11:20), data.frame(x=sample(20, 10), y=runif(10)))
merged.data.frame = Reduce(function(...) merge(..., all=T), list.of.data.frames)
tail(merged.data.frame)
#    x  a  b         y
#12 12 NA 18        NA
#13 13 NA 19        NA
#14 14 NA 20 0.4976992
#15 15 NA NA 0.7176185
#16 16 NA NA 0.3841037
#17 19 NA NA 0.3800352

And here's an example using these data to replicate my.list:

merged.data.frame = Reduce(function(...) merge(..., by=match.by, all=T), my.list)
merged.data.frame[, 1:12]

#  matchname party st district chamber senate1993 name.x v2.x v3.x v4.x senate1994 name.y
#1   ALGIERE   200 RI      026       S         NA   <NA>   NA   NA   NA         NA   <NA>
#2     ALVES   100 RI      019       S         NA   <NA>   NA   NA   NA         NA   <NA>
#3    BADEAU   100 RI      032       S         NA   <NA>   NA   NA   NA         NA   <NA>

Note: It looks like this is arguably a bug in merge. The problem is there is no check that adding the suffixes (to handle overlapping non-matching names) actually makes them unique. At a certain point it uses [.data.frame which does make.unique the names, causing the rbind to fail.

# first merge will end up with 'name.x' & 'name.y'
merge(my.list[[1]], my.list[[2]], by=match.by, all=T)
# [1] matchname    party        st           district     chamber      senate1993   name.x      
# [8] votes.year.x senate1994   name.y       votes.year.y
#<0 rows> (or 0-length row.names)
# as there is no clash, we retain 'name.x' & 'name.y' and get 'name' again
merge(merge(my.list[[1]], my.list[[2]], by=match.by, all=T), my.list[[3]], by=match.by, all=T)
# [1] matchname    party        st           district     chamber      senate1993   name.x      
# [8] votes.year.x senate1994   name.y       votes.year.y senate1995   name         votes.year  
#<0 rows> (or 0-length row.names)
# the next merge will fail as 'name' will get renamed to a pre-existing field.

Easiest way to fix is to not leave the field renaming for duplicates fields (of which there are many here) up to merge. Eg:

my.list2 = Map(function(x, i) setNames(x, ifelse(names(x) %in% match.by,
      names(x), sprintf('%s.%d', names(x), i))), my.list, seq_along(my.list))

The merge/Reduce will then work fine.

How to convert comma-separated String to List?

An example using Collections.

rsync: how can I configure it to create target directory on server?

The -R, --relative option will do this.

For example: if you want to backup /var/named/chroot and create the same directory structure on the remote server then -R will do just that.

UIBarButtonItem in navigation bar programmatically?

What is python's site-packages directory?

site-packages is just the location where Python installs its modules.

No need to "find it", python knows where to find it by itself, this location is always part of the PYTHONPATH (sys.path).

Programmatically you can find it this way:

import sys
site_packages = next(p for p in sys.path if 'site-packages' in p)
print site_packages

'/Users/foo/.envs/env1/lib/python2.7/site-packages'

how to filter out a null value from spark dataframe

Another easy way to filter out null values from multiple columns in spark dataframe. Please pay attention there is AND between columns.

df.filter(" COALESCE(col1, col2, col3, col4, col5, col6) IS NOT NULL")

If you need to filter out rows that contain any null (OR connected) please use

df.na.drop()

How is Docker different from a virtual machine?

I like Ken Cochrane's answer.

But I want to add additional point of view, not covered in detail here. In my opinion Docker differs also in whole process. In contrast to VMs, Docker is not (only) about optimal resource sharing of hardware, moreover it provides a "system" for packaging application (preferable, but not a must, as a set of microservices).

To me it fits in the gap between developer-oriented tools like rpm, Debian packages, Maven, npm + Git on one side and ops tools like Puppet, VMware, Xen, you name it...

Why is deploying software to a docker image (if that's the right term) easier than simply deploying to a consistent production environment?

Your question assumes some consistent production environment. But how to keep it consistent? Consider some amount (>10) of servers and applications, stages in the pipeline.

To keep this in sync you'll start to use something like Puppet, Chef or your own provisioning scripts, unpublished rules and/or lot of documentation... In theory servers can run indefinitely, and be kept completely consistent and up to date. Practice fails to manage a server's configuration completely, so there is considerable scope for configuration drift, and unexpected changes to running servers.

So there is a known pattern to avoid this, the so called immutable server. But the immutable server pattern was not loved. Mostly because of the limitations of VMs that were used before Docker. Dealing with several gigabytes big images, moving those big images around, just to change some fields in the application, was very very laborious. Understandable...

With a Docker ecosystem, you will never need to move around gigabytes on "small changes" (thanks aufs and Registry) and you don't need to worry about losing performance by packaging applications into a Docker container at runtime. You don't need to worry about versions of that image.

And finally you will even often be able to reproduce complex production environments even on your Linux laptop (don't call me if doesn't work in your case ;))

And of course you can start Docker containers in VMs (it's a good idea). Reduce your server provisioning on the VM level. All the above could be managed by Docker.

P.S. Meanwhile Docker uses its own implementation "libcontainer" instead of LXC. But LXC is still usable.

How can I protect my .NET assemblies from decompilation?

If you want to fully protect your app from decompilation, look at Aladdin's Hasp. You can wrap your assemblies in an encrypted shell that can only be accessed by your application. Of course one wonders how they're able to do this but it works. I don't know however if they protect your app from runtime attachment/reflection which is what Crack.NET is able to do.

-- Edit Also be careful of compiling to native code as a solution...there are decompilers for native code as well.

Angular2 - Http POST request parameters

I was having problems with every approach using multiple parameters, but it works quite well with single object

api:

    [HttpPut]
    [Route("addfeeratevalue")]
    public object AddFeeRateValue(MyValeObject val)

angular:

var o = {ID:rateId, AMOUNT_TO: amountTo, VALUE: value};
return this.http.put('/api/ctrl/mymethod', JSON.stringify(o), this.getPutHeaders());


private getPutHeaders(){
    let headers = new Headers();
    headers.append('Content-Type', 'application/json');
    return new RequestOptions({
        headers: headers
        , withCredentials: true // optional when using windows auth
    });
}

Learning Regular Expressions

The most important part is the concepts. Once you understand how the building blocks work, differences in syntax amount to little more than mild dialects. A layer on top of your regular expression engine's syntax is the syntax of the programming language you're using. Languages such as Perl remove most of this complication, but you'll have to keep in mind other considerations if you're using regular expressions in a C program.

If you think of regular expressions as building blocks that you can mix and match as you please, it helps you learn how to write and debug your own patterns but also how to understand patterns written by others.

Start simple

Conceptually, the simplest regular expressions are literal characters. The pattern N matches the character 'N'.

Regular expressions next to each other match sequences. For example, the pattern Nick matches the sequence 'N' followed by 'i' followed by 'c' followed by 'k'.

If you've ever used grep on Unix—even if only to search for ordinary looking strings—you've already been using regular expressions! (The re in grep refers to regular expressions.)

Order from the menu

Adding just a little complexity, you can match either 'Nick' or 'nick' with the pattern [Nn]ick. The part in square brackets is a character class, which means it matches exactly one of the enclosed characters. You can also use ranges in character classes, so [a-c] matches either 'a' or 'b' or 'c'.

The pattern . is special: rather than matching a literal dot only, it matches any character. It's the same conceptually as the really big character class [-.?+%$A-Za-z0-9...].

Think of character classes as menus: pick just one.

Helpful shortcuts

Using . can save you lots of typing, and there are other shortcuts for common patterns. Say you want to match a digit: one way to write that is [0-9]. Digits are a frequent match target, so you could instead use the shortcut \d. Others are \s (whitespace) and \w (word characters: alphanumerics or underscore).

The uppercased variants are their complements, so \S matches any non-whitespace character, for example.

Once is not enough

From there, you can repeat parts of your pattern with quantifiers. For example, the pattern ab?c matches 'abc' or 'ac' because the ? quantifier makes the subpattern it modifies optional. Other quantifiers are

  • * (zero or more times)
  • + (one or more times)
  • {n} (exactly n times)
  • {n,} (at least n times)
  • {n,m} (at least n times but no more than m times)

Putting some of these blocks together, the pattern [Nn]*ick matches all of

  • ick
  • Nick
  • nick
  • Nnick
  • nNick
  • nnick
  • (and so on)

The first match demonstrates an important lesson: * always succeeds! Any pattern can match zero times.

A few other useful examples:

  • [0-9]+ (and its equivalent \d+) matches any non-negative integer
  • \d{4}-\d{2}-\d{2} matches dates formatted like 2019-01-01

Grouping

A quantifier modifies the pattern to its immediate left. You might expect 0abc+0 to match '0abc0', '0abcabc0', and so forth, but the pattern immediately to the left of the plus quantifier is c. This means 0abc+0 matches '0abc0', '0abcc0', '0abccc0', and so on.

To match one or more sequences of 'abc' with zeros on the ends, use 0(abc)+0. The parentheses denote a subpattern that can be quantified as a unit. It's also common for regular expression engines to save or "capture" the portion of the input text that matches a parenthesized group. Extracting bits this way is much more flexible and less error-prone than counting indices and substr.

Alternation

Earlier, we saw one way to match either 'Nick' or 'nick'. Another is with alternation as in Nick|nick. Remember that alternation includes everything to its left and everything to its right. Use grouping parentheses to limit the scope of |, e.g., (Nick|nick).

For another example, you could equivalently write [a-c] as a|b|c, but this is likely to be suboptimal because many implementations assume alternatives will have lengths greater than 1.

Escaping

Although some characters match themselves, others have special meanings. The pattern \d+ doesn't match backslash followed by lowercase D followed by a plus sign: to get that, we'd use \\d\+. A backslash removes the special meaning from the following character.

Greediness

Regular expression quantifiers are greedy. This means they match as much text as they possibly can while allowing the entire pattern to match successfully.

For example, say the input is

"Hello," she said, "How are you?"

You might expect ".+" to match only 'Hello,' and will then be surprised when you see that it matched from 'Hello' all the way through 'you?'.

To switch from greedy to what you might think of as cautious, add an extra ? to the quantifier. Now you understand how \((.+?)\), the example from your question works. It matches the sequence of a literal left-parenthesis, followed by one or more characters, and terminated by a right-parenthesis.

If your input is '(123) (456)', then the first capture will be '123'. Non-greedy quantifiers want to allow the rest of the pattern to start matching as soon as possible.

(As to your confusion, I don't know of any regular-expression dialect where ((.+?)) would do the same thing. I suspect something got lost in transmission somewhere along the way.)

Anchors

Use the special pattern ^ to match only at the beginning of your input and $ to match only at the end. Making "bookends" with your patterns where you say, "I know what's at the front and back, but give me everything between" is a useful technique.

Say you want to match comments of the form

-- This is a comment --

you'd write ^--\s+(.+)\s+--$.

Build your own

Regular expressions are recursive, so now that you understand these basic rules, you can combine them however you like.

Footnote

†: The statement above that . matches any character is a simplification for pedagogical purposes that is not strictly true. Dot matches any character except newline, "\n", but in practice you rarely expect a pattern such as .+ to cross a newline boundary. Perl regexes have a /s switch and Java Pattern.DOTALL, for example, to make . match any character at all. For languages that don't have such a feature, you can use something like [\s\S] to match "any whitespace or any non-whitespace", in other words anything.

ServletContext.getRequestDispatcher() vs ServletRequest.getRequestDispatcher()

The request method getRequestDispatcher() can be used for referring to local servlets within single webapp.

Servlet context based getRequestDispatcher() method can used of referring servlets from other web applications deployed on SAME server.

Why a function checking if a string is empty always returns true?

I needed to test for an empty field in PHP and used

which worked well for me.

Drop primary key using script in SQL Server database

The answer I got is that variables and subqueries will not work and we have to user dynamic SQL script. The following works:

DECLARE @SQL VARCHAR(4000)
SET @SQL = 'ALTER TABLE dbo.Student DROP CONSTRAINT |ConstraintName| '

SET @SQL = REPLACE(@SQL, '|ConstraintName|', ( SELECT   name
                                               FROM     sysobjects
                                               WHERE    xtype = 'PK'
                                                        AND parent_obj =        OBJECT_ID('Student')))

Working with a List of Lists in Java

If you are really like to know that handle CSV files perfectly in Java, it's not good to try to implement CSV reader/writer by yourself. Check below out.

http://opencsv.sourceforge.net/

When your CSV document includes double-quotes or newlines, you will face difficulties.

To learn object-oriented approach at first, seeing other implementation (by Java) will help you. And I think it's not good way to manage one row in a List. CSV doesn't allow you to have difference column size.

Java Constructor Inheritance

Because constructors are an implementation detail - they're not something that a user of an interface/superclass can actually invoke at all. By the time they get an instance, it's already been constructed; and vice-versa, at the time you construct an object there's by definition no variable it's currently assigned to.

Think about what it would mean to force all subclasses to have an inherited constructor. I argue it's clearer to pass the variables in directly than for the class to "magically" have a constructor with a certain number of arguments just because it's parent does.

What's the difference between "Solutions Architect" and "Applications Architect"?

When your title doesn't fit on your business card because you wear too many hats, then someone wordsmiths a nifty title for you.

e.g. Programming/IT/Project Management/Strategy/Business Analyst

Other ways to receive an architect title:

  • You spend more time on the phone and at the whiteboard than you do actually developing working software.
  • You spend more time helping people set up Outlook/Entourage than you do actually developing working software.
  • You're really not that good of a coder to begin with.

How to format strings in Java

Java 15

There is a new instance method called String::formatted(Object... args) as of Java 15.

The internal implementation is same to String::format(String format, Object... args).

Formats using this string as the format string, and the supplied arguments.

String step1 = "one";
String step2 = "two";

// results in "Step one of two"
String string = "Step %s of %s".formatted(step1, step2);     

Advantage: The difference is that the method is not static and the formatting pattern is a string itself from which a new one is created based on the args. This allows chaining to build the format itself first.

Disadvantage: There is no overloaded method with Locale, therefore uses the default one. If you need to use a custom Locale, you have to stick with String::format(Locale l,String format,Object... args).

Compare integer in bash, unary operator expected

Judging from the error message the value of i was the empty string when you executed it, not 0.

Google Maps setCenter()

@phoenix24 answer actually helped me (whose own asnwer did not solve my problem btw). The correct arguments for setCenter is

map.setCenter({lat:LAT_VALUE, lng:LONG_VALUE});

Google Documentation

By the way if your variable are lat and lng the following code will work

map.setCenter({lat:lat, lng:lng});

This actually solved my very intricate problem so I thought I will post it here.

How does true/false work in PHP?

think of operator as unary function: is_false(type value) which returns true or false, depending on the exact implementation for specific type and value. Consider if statement to invoke such function implicitly, via syntactic sugar.

other possibility is that type has cast operator, which turns type into another type implicitly, in this case string to Boolean.

PHP does not expose such details, but C++ allows operator overloading which exposes fine details of operator implementation.

Getting specified Node values from XML document

Just like you do for getting something from the CNode you also need to do for the ANode

XmlNodeList xnList = xml.SelectNodes("/Element[@*]");
foreach (XmlNode xn in xnList)
{
  XmlNode anode = xn.SelectSingleNode("ANode");
    if (anode!= null)
    {
        string id = anode["ID"].InnerText;
        string date = anode["Date"].InnerText;
        XmlNodeList CNodes = xn.SelectNodes("ANode/BNode/CNode");
        foreach (XmlNode node in CNodes)
        {
         XmlNode example = node.SelectSingleNode("Example");
         if (example != null)
         {
            string na = example["Name"].InnerText;
            string no = example["NO"].InnerText;
         }
        }
    }
}

Bootstrap 3 collapsed menu doesn't close on click

Set ImageView width and height programmatically?

You can set value for all case.

demoImage.getLayoutParams().height = 150;

demoImage.getLayoutParams().width = 150;

demoImage.setScaleType(ImageView.ScaleType.FIT_XY);

newline character in c# string

They might be just a \r or a \n. I just checked and the text visualizer in VS 2010 displays both as newlines as well as \r\n.

This string

string test = "blah\r\nblah\rblah\nblah";

Shows up as

blah
blah
blah
blah

in the text visualizer.

So you could try

string modifiedString = originalString
    .Replace(Environment.NewLine, "<br />")
    .Replace("\r", "<br />")
    .Replace("\n", "<br />");

Where to place $PATH variable assertions in zsh?

Here is the docs from the zsh man pages under STARTUP/SHUTDOWN FILES section.

   Commands  are  first  read from /etc/zshenv this cannot be overridden.
   Subsequent behaviour is modified by the RCS and GLOBAL_RCS options; the
   former  affects all startup files, while the second only affects global
   startup files (those shown here with an path starting with  a  /).   If
   one  of  the  options  is  unset  at  any point, any subsequent startup
   file(s) of the corresponding type will not be read.  It is also  possi-
   ble  for  a  file  in  $ZDOTDIR  to  re-enable GLOBAL_RCS. Both RCS and
   GLOBAL_RCS are set by default.

   Commands are then read from $ZDOTDIR/.zshenv.  If the shell is a  login
   shell,  commands  are  read from /etc/zprofile and then $ZDOTDIR/.zpro-
   file.  Then, if the  shell  is  interactive,  commands  are  read  from
   /etc/zshrc  and then $ZDOTDIR/.zshrc.  Finally, if the shell is a login
   shell, /etc/zlogin and $ZDOTDIR/.zlogin are read.

From this we can see the order files are read is:

/etc/zshenv    # Read for every shell
~/.zshenv      # Read for every shell except ones started with -f
/etc/zprofile  # Global config for login shells, read before zshrc
~/.zprofile    # User config for login shells
/etc/zshrc     # Global config for interactive shells
~/.zshrc       # User config for interactive shells
/etc/zlogin    # Global config for login shells, read after zshrc
~/.zlogin      # User config for login shells
~/.zlogout     # User config for login shells, read upon logout
/etc/zlogout   # Global config for login shells, read after user logout file

Set color of TextView span in Android

There's a factory for creating the Spannable, and avoid the cast, like this:
