Sorted array list in Java

Just make a new class like this:

public class SortedList<T> extends ArrayList<T> {

private final Comparator<? super T> comparator;

public SortedList() {
    super();
    this.comparator = null;
}

public SortedList(Comparator<T> comparator) {
    super();
    this.comparator = comparator;
}

@Override
public boolean add(T item) {
    int index = comparator == null ? Collections.binarySearch((List<? extends Comparable<? super T>>)this, item) :
            Collections.binarySearch(this, item, comparator);
    if (index < 0) {
        index = index * -1 - 2;
    }
    super.add(index+1, item);
    return true;
}

@Override
public void add(int index, T item) {
    throw new UnsupportedOperationException("'add' with an index is not supported in SortedArrayList");
}

@Override
public boolean addAll(Collection<? extends T> items) {
    boolean allAdded = true;
    for (T item : items) {
        allAdded = allAdded && add(item);
    }
    return allAdded;
}

@Override
public boolean addAll(int index, Collection<? extends T> items) {
    throw new UnsupportedOperationException("'addAll' with an index is not supported in SortedArrayList");
}

}

You can test it like this:

    List<Integer> list = new SortedArrayList<>((Integer i1, Integer i2) -> i1.compareTo(i2));
    for (Integer i : Arrays.asList(4, 7, 3, 8, 9, 25, 20, 23, 52, 3)) {
        list.add(i);
    }
    System.out.println(list);

Add button to a layout programmatically

This line:

layout = (LinearLayout) findViewById(R.id.statsviewlayout);

Looks for the "statsviewlayout" id in your current 'contentview'. Now you've set that here:

setContentView(new GraphTemperature(getApplicationContext()));

And i'm guessing that new "graphTemperature" does not set anything with that id.

It's a common mistake to think you can just find any view with findViewById. You can only find a view that is in the XML (or appointed by code and given an id).

The nullpointer will be thrown because the layout you're looking for isn't found, so

layout.addView(buyButton);

Throws that exception.

addition: Now if you want to get that view from an XML, you should use an inflater:

layout = (LinearLayout) View.inflate(this, R.layout.yourXMLYouWantToLoad, null);

assuming that you have your linearlayout in a file called "yourXMLYouWantToLoad.xml"

How to use PHP string in mySQL LIKE query?

You have the syntax wrong; there is no need to place a period inside a double-quoted string. Instead, it should be more like

$query = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM table WHERE the_number LIKE '$prefix%'");

You can confirm this by printing out the string to see that it turns out identical to the first case.

Of course it's not a good idea to simply inject variables into the query string like this because of the danger of SQL injection. At the very least you should manually escape the contents of the variable with mysql_real_escape_string, which would make it look perhaps like this:

$sql = sprintf("SELECT * FROM table WHERE the_number LIKE '%s%%'",
               mysql_real_escape_string($prefix));
$query = mysql_query($sql);

Note that inside the first argument of sprintf the percent sign needs to be doubled to end up appearing once in the result.

In Java, what does NaN mean?

It literally means "Not a Number." I suspect something is wrong with your conversion process.

Check out the Not A Number section at this reference

Multiple "order by" in LINQ

Add "new":

var movies = _db.Movies.OrderBy( m => new { m.CategoryID, m.Name })

That works on my box. It does return something that can be used to sort. It returns an object with two values.

Similar, but different to sorting by a combined column, as follows.

var movies = _db.Movies.OrderBy( m => (m.CategoryID.ToString() + m.Name))

getCurrentPosition() and watchPosition() are deprecated on insecure origins

It's only for test, you can do it in google chrome: navigate to: chrome://flags/#unsafely-treat-insecure-origin-as-secure then you'll see: Type address you want to allow, then enable and relaunch your browser.

How to query nested objects?

Since there is a lot of confusion about queries MongoDB collection with sub-documents, I thought its worth to explain the above answers with examples:

First I have inserted only two objects in the collection namely: message as:

> db.messages.find().pretty()
{
    "_id" : ObjectId("5cce8e417d2e7b3fe9c93c32"),
    "headers" : {
        "From" : "[email protected]"
    }
}
{
    "_id" : ObjectId("5cce8eb97d2e7b3fe9c93c33"),
    "headers" : {
        "From" : "[email protected]",
        "To" : "[email protected]"
    }
}
>

So what is the result of query: db.messages.find({headers: {From: "[email protected]"} }).count()

It should be one because these queries for documents where headers equal to the object {From: "[email protected]"}, only i.e. contains no other fields or we should specify the entire sub-document as the value of a field.

So as per the answer from @Edmondo1984

Equality matches within sub-documents select documents if the subdocument matches exactly the specified sub-document, including the field order.

From the above statements, what is the below query result should be?

> db.messages.find({headers: {To: "[email protected]", From: "[email protected]"}  }).count()
0

And what if we will change the order of From and To i.e same as sub-documents of second documents?

> db.messages.find({headers: {From: "[email protected]", To: "[email protected]"}  }).count()
1

so, it matches exactly the specified sub-document, including the field order.

For using dot operator, I think it is very clear for every one. Let's see the result of below query:

> db.messages.find( { 'headers.From': "[email protected]" }  ).count()
2

I hope these explanations with the above example will make someone more clarity on find query with sub-documents.

Angularjs $http post file and form data

I recently wrote a directive that supports native multiple file uploads. The solution I've created relies on a service to fill the gap you've identified with the $http service. I've also included a directive, which provides an easy API for your angular module to use to post the files and data.

Example usage:

<lvl-file-upload
    auto-upload='false'
    choose-file-button-text='Choose files'
    upload-file-button-text='Upload files'
    upload-url='http://localhost:3000/files'
    max-files='10'
    max-file-size-mb='5'
    get-additional-data='getData(files)'
    on-done='done(files, data)'
    on-progress='progress(percentDone)'
    on-error='error(files, type, msg)'/>

You can find the code on github, and the documentation on my blog

It would be up to you to process the files in your web framework, but the solution I've created provides the angular interface to getting the data to your server. The angular code you need to write is to respond to the upload events

angular
    .module('app', ['lvl.directives.fileupload'])
    .controller('ctl', ['$scope', function($scope) {
        $scope.done = function(files,data} { /*do something when the upload completes*/ };
        $scope.progress = function(percentDone) { /*do something when progress is reported*/ };
        $scope.error = function(file, type, msg) { /*do something if an error occurs*/ };
        $scope.getAdditionalData = function() { /* return additional data to be posted to the server*/ };

    });

Proper MIME type for .woff2 fonts

font/woff2

For nginx add the following to the mime.types file:

font/woff2 woff2;

Old Answer

The mime type (sometime written as mimetype) for WOFF2 fonts has been proposed as application/font-woff2.

Also, if you refer to the spec (http://dev.w3.org/webfonts/WOFF2/spec/) you will see that font/woff2 is being discussed. I suspect that the filal mime type for all fonts will eventually be the more logical font/* (font/ttf, font/woff2 etc)...

N.B. WOFF2 is still in 'Working Draft' status -- not yet adopted officially.

   ->setParameter('monday', $monday->format('Y-m-d'))
   ->setParameter('sunday', $sunday->format('Y-m-d'));

or…

$qb->where('e.fecha > :monday')

   ->setParameter('sunday', $sunday->format('Y-m-d'));

How to get Python requests to trust a self signed SSL certificate?

The easiest is to export the variable REQUESTS_CA_BUNDLE that points to your private certificate authority, or a specific certificate bundle. On the command line you can do that as follows:

export REQUESTS_CA_BUNDLE=/path/to/your/certificate.pem
python script.py

If you have your certificate authority and you don't want to type the export each time you can add the REQUESTS_CA_BUNDLE to your ~/.bash_profile as follows:

echo "export REQUESTS_CA_BUNDLE=/path/to/your/certificate.pem" >> ~/.bash_profile ; source ~/.bash_profile

How to change the status bar background color and text color on iOS 7?

Just to add to Shahid's answer - you can account for orientation changes or different devices using this (iOS7+):

- (BOOL) application:(UIApplication *)application didFinishLaunchingWithOptions:(NSDictionary *)launchOptions
{
  ...

  //Create the background
  UIView* statusBg = [[UIView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0, self.window.frame.size.width, 20)];
  statusBg.backgroundColor = [UIColor colorWithWhite:1 alpha:.7];

  //Add the view behind the status bar
  [self.window.rootViewController.view addSubview:statusBg];

  //set the constraints to auto-resize
  statusBg.translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints = NO;
  [statusBg.superview addConstraint:[NSLayoutConstraint constraintWithItem:statusBg attribute:NSLayoutAttributeTop relatedBy:NSLayoutRelationEqual toItem:statusBg.superview attribute:NSLayoutAttributeTop multiplier:1.0 constant:0.0]];
  [statusBg.superview addConstraint:[NSLayoutConstraint constraintWithItem:statusBg attribute:NSLayoutAttributeLeft relatedBy:NSLayoutRelationEqual toItem:statusBg.superview attribute:NSLayoutAttributeLeft multiplier:1.0 constant:0.0]];
  [statusBg.superview addConstraint:[NSLayoutConstraint constraintWithItem:statusBg attribute:NSLayoutAttributeRight relatedBy:NSLayoutRelationEqual toItem:statusBg.superview attribute:NSLayoutAttributeRight multiplier:1.0 constant:0.0]];
  [statusBg.superview addConstraints:[NSLayoutConstraint constraintsWithVisualFormat:@"V:[statusBg(==20)]" options:0 metrics:nil views:NSDictionaryOfVariableBindings(statusBg)]];
  [statusBg.superview setNeedsUpdateConstraints];
  ...
}

REST API using POST instead of GET

If I understand the question correctly, he needs to perform a REST GET action, but wonders if it's OK to send in data via HTTP POST method.

As Scott had nicely laid out in his answer earlier, there are many good reasons to POST input data. IMHO it should be done this way, if quality of solution is the top priority.

A while back we created an REST API to authenticate users, taking username/password and returning an access token. The API is encrypted under TLS, but exposed to public internet. After evaluating different options, we chose HTTP POST for the REST method of "GET access token," because that's the only way to meet security standards.

How to convert SQL Server's timestamp column to datetime format

SQL Server's TIMESTAMP datatype has nothing to do with a date and time!

It's just a hexadecimal representation of a consecutive 8 byte integer - it's only good for making sure a row hasn't change since it's been read.

You can read off the hexadecimal integer or if you want a BIGINT. As an example:

SELECT CAST (0x0000000017E30D64 AS BIGINT)

The result is

400756068

In newer versions of SQL Server, it's being called RowVersion - since that's really what it is. See the MSDN docs on ROWVERSION:

Is a data type that exposes automatically generated, unique binary numbers within a database. rowversion is generally used as a mechanism for version-stamping table rows. The rowversion data type is just an incrementing number and does not preserve a date or a time. To record a date or time, use a datetime2 data type.

So you cannot convert a SQL Server TIMESTAMP to a date/time - it's just not a date/time.

But if you're saying timestamp but really you mean a DATETIME column - then you can use any of those valid date formats described in the CAST and CONVERT topic in the MSDN help. Those are defined and supported "out of the box" by SQL Server. Anything else is not supported, e.g. you have to do a lot of manual casting and concatenating (not recommended).

The format you're looking for looks a bit like the ODBC canonical (style = 121):

DECLARE @today DATETIME = SYSDATETIME()

SELECT CONVERT(VARCHAR(50), @today, 121)

gives:

2011-11-14 10:29:00.470

SQL Server 2012 will finally have a FORMAT function to do custom formatting......

How do I correct the character encoding of a file?

I found this question when searching for a solution to a code page issue i had with Chinese characters, but in the end my problem was just an issue with Windows not displaying them correctly in the UI.

In case anyone else has that same issue, you can fix it simply by changing the local in windows to China and then back again.

I found the solution here:

http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_7-desktop/how-can-i-get-chinesejapanese-characters-to/fdb1f1da-b868-40d1-a4a4-7acadff4aafa?page=2&auth=1

Also upvoted Gabriel's answer as looking at the data in notepad++ was what tipped me off about windows.

Javascript callback when IFRAME is finished loading?

First up, going by the function name xssRequest it sounds like you're trying cross site request - which if that's right, you're not going to be able to read the contents of the iframe.

On the other hand, if the iframe's URL is on your domain you can access the body, but I've found that if I use a timeout to remove the iframe the callback works fine:

// possibly excessive use of jQuery - but I've got a live working example in production
$('#myUniqueID').load(function () {
  if (typeof callback == 'function') {
    callback($('body', this.contentWindow.document).html());
  }
  setTimeout(function () {$('#frameId').remove();}, 50);
});

Sql Server : How to use an aggregate function like MAX in a WHERE clause

As you've noticed, the WHERE clause doesn't allow you to use aggregates in it. That's what the HAVING clause is for.

Handle spring security authentication exceptions with @ExceptionHandler

The best way I've found is to delegate the exception to the HandlerExceptionResolver

@Component("restAuthenticationEntryPoint")
public class RestAuthenticationEntryPoint implements AuthenticationEntryPoint {

    @Autowired
    private HandlerExceptionResolver resolver;

    @Override
    public void commence(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response, AuthenticationException exception) throws IOException, ServletException {
        resolver.resolveException(request, response, null, exception);
    }
}

then you can use @ExceptionHandler to format the response the way you want.

Installing specific laravel version with composer create-project

Have a look:

Laravel 4.2 Documentation

Syntax (Via Composer):

composer create-project laravel/laravel {directory} 4.2 --prefer-dist

Example:

composer create-project laravel/laravel my_laravel_dir 4.2

Where 4.2 is your version of laravel.

Note: It will take the latest version of Laravel automatically If you will not provide any version.

Convert a string to an enum in C#

I like the extension method solution..

namespace System
{
    public static class StringExtensions
    {

        public static bool TryParseAsEnum<T>(this string value, out T output) where T : struct
        {
            T result;

            var isEnum = Enum.TryParse(value, out result);

            output = isEnum ? result : default(T);

            return isEnum;
        }
    }
}

Here below my implementation with tests.

        Australia
    }

            var isCountry = countryName.TryParseAsEnum(out country);

            WriteLine(country);

            IsTrue(isCountry);
            AreEqual(Countries.Rusia, country);

            countryName = "Don't exist";

            isCountry = countryName.TryParseAsEnum(out country);

            WriteLine(country);

            IsFalse(isCountry);
            AreEqual(Countries.NorthAmerica, country); // the 1rst one in the enumeration

jQuery on window resize

Here's an example using jQuery, javascript and css to handle resize events.
(css if your best bet if you're just stylizing things on resize (media queries))
http://jsfiddle.net/CoryDanielson/LAF4G/

css

.footer 
{
    /* default styles applied first */
}

@media screen and (min-height: 820px) /* height >= 820 px */
{
    .footer {
        position: absolute;
        bottom: 3px;
        left: 0px;
        /* more styles */
    }
}

javascript

window.onresize = function() {
    if (window.innerHeight >= 820) { /* ... */ }
    if (window.innerWidth <= 1280) {  /* ... */ }
}

jQuery

$(window).on('resize', function(){
    var win = $(this); //this = window
    if (win.height() >= 820) { /* ... */ }
    if (win.width() >= 1280) { /* ... */ }
});

How do I stop my resize code from executing so often!?

This is the first problem you'll notice when binding to resize. The resize code gets called a LOT when the user is resizing the browser manually, and can feel pretty janky.

To limit how often your resize code is called, you can use the debounce or throttle methods from the underscore & lowdash libraries.

debounce will only execute your resize code X number of milliseconds after the LAST resize event. This is ideal when you only want to call your resize code once, after the user is done resizing the browser. It's good for updating graphs, charts and layouts that may be expensive to update every single resize event.
throttle will only execute your resize code every X number of milliseconds. It "throttles" how often the code is called. This isn't used as often with resize events, but it's worth being aware of.

If you don't have underscore or lowdash, you can implement a similar solution yourself: JavaScript/JQuery: $(window).resize how to fire AFTER the resize is completed?

JavaFX - create custom button with image

You just need to create your own class inherited from parent. Place an ImageView on that, and on the mousedown and mouse up events just change the images of the ImageView.

public class ImageButton extends Parent {

    private static final Image NORMAL_IMAGE = ...;
    private static final Image PRESSED_IMAGE = ...;

    private final ImageView iv;

    public ImageButton() {
        this.iv = new ImageView(NORMAL_IMAGE);
        this.getChildren().add(this.iv);

        this.iv.setOnMousePressed(new EventHandler<MouseEvent>() {

            public void handle(MouseEvent evt) {
                iv.setImage(PRESSED_IMAGE);
            }

        });

        // TODO other event handlers like mouse up

    } 

}

'workbooks.worksheets.activate' works, but '.select' does not

You can't select a sheet in a non-active workbook.

You must first activate the workbook, then you can select the sheet.

workbooks("A").activate
workbooks("A").worksheets("B").select

When you use Activate it automatically activates the workbook.

Note you can select >1 sheet in a workbook:

activeworkbook.sheets(array("sheet1","sheet3")).select

but only one sheet can be Active, and if you activate a sheet which is not part of a multi-sheet selection then those other sheets will become un-selected.

Error: fix the version conflict (google-services plugin)

After All Working for 6 hours i got the solution...

Simple Just what ever the plugins you defined in the build.gradle file... for ex: google services plugins or firebase plugins or any third party plugins all the **version code** should be same..

Example: In my application i am using following plugins...

    // google services plugins
    implementation 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-analytics:10.0.1'
    implementation 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-gcm:10.0.1'
    implementation 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-base:11.6.1'
    implementation 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-auth-api-phone:11.6.0'

    //firebase plugin
    implementation 'com.google.firebase:firebase-ads:10.0.1'

    //Third Party plugin
    implementation 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-auth:16.0.0'

In the above plugins version code(ex:10.0.1, 16.0.0, 11.6.1) are different I was facing fix the version conflict (google-services plugin) issue

Below for all plugins i have given single version code(11.6.0) and the issue is resovled...

 // google services plugins
    implementation 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-analytics:11.6.0'
    implementation 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-gcm:11.6.0'
    implementation 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-base:11.6.0'
    implementation 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-auth-api-phone:11.6.0'

    //firebase plugin
    implementation 'com.google.firebase:firebase-ads:11.6.0'

    //Third Party plugin
    implementation 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-auth:11.6.0'

Easiest way to split a string on newlines in .NET?

To split on a string you need to use the overload that takes an array of strings:

string[] lines = theText.Split(
    new[] { Environment.NewLine },
    StringSplitOptions.None
);

Edit:
If you want to handle different types of line breaks in a text, you can use the ability to match more than one string. This will correctly split on either type of line break, and preserve empty lines and spacing in the text:

string[] lines = theText.Split(
    new[] { "\r\n", "\r", "\n" },
    StringSplitOptions.None
);

Can the Twitter Bootstrap Carousel plugin fade in and out on slide transition

Yes. Although I use the following code.

.carousel.fade
{
    opacity: 1;

    .item
    {
        -moz-transition: opacity ease-in-out .7s;
        -o-transition: opacity ease-in-out .7s;
        -webkit-transition: opacity ease-in-out .7s;
        transition: opacity ease-in-out .7s;
        left: 0 !important;
        opacity: 0;
        top:0;
        position:absolute;
        width: 100%;
        display:block !important;
        z-index:1;
        &:first-child{
            top:auto;
            position:relative;
        }

        &.active
        {
            opacity: 1;
            -moz-transition: opacity ease-in-out .7s;
            -o-transition: opacity ease-in-out .7s;
            -webkit-transition: opacity ease-in-out .7s;
            transition: opacity ease-in-out .7s;
            z-index:2;
        }
    }
}

Then change the class on the carousel from "carousel slide" to "carousel fade". This works in safari, chrome, firefox, and IE 10. It will correctly downgrade in IE 9, however, the nice face effect doesn't happen.

Edit: Since this answer has gotten so popular I've added the following which rewritten as pure CSS instead of the above which was LESS:

.carousel.fade {
  opacity: 1;
}
.carousel.fade .item {
  -moz-transition: opacity ease-in-out .7s;
  -o-transition: opacity ease-in-out .7s;
  -webkit-transition: opacity ease-in-out .7s;
  transition: opacity ease-in-out .7s;
  left: 0 !important;
  opacity: 0;
  top:0;
  position:absolute;
  width: 100%;
  display:block !important;
  z-index:1;
}
.carousel.fade .item:first-child {
  top:auto;
  position:relative;
}
.carousel.fade .item.active {
  opacity: 1;
  -moz-transition: opacity ease-in-out .7s;
  -o-transition: opacity ease-in-out .7s;
  -webkit-transition: opacity ease-in-out .7s;
  transition: opacity ease-in-out .7s;
  z-index:2;
}

Android Studio installation on Windows 7 fails, no JDK found

To complete this stack of possible solutions: For me the problem was, that I did not execute the Android-Studio-Setup as administrator. Running it as administrator then made me able to install Android-Studio.

How do I get the full path to a Perl script that is executing?

Have you tried:

$ENV{'SCRIPT_NAME'}

use FindBin '$Bin';
print "The script is located in $Bin.\n";

It really depends on how it's being called and if it's CGI or being run from a normal shell, etc.

ImportError: No Module Named bs4 (BeautifulSoup)

Access to build environment variables from a groovy script in a Jenkins build step (Windows)

The Scriptler Groovy script doesn't seem to get all the environment variables of the build. But what you can do is force them in as parameters to the script:

When you add the Scriptler build step into your job, select the option "Define script parameters"
Add a parameter for each environment variable you want to pass in. For example "Name: JOB_NAME", "Value: $JOB_NAME". The value will get expanded from the Jenkins build environment using '$envName' type variables, most fields in the job configuration settings support this sort of expansion from my experience.
In your script, you should have a variable with the same name as the parameter, so you can access the parameters with something like:

println "JOB_NAME = $JOB_NAME"

I haven't used Sciptler myself apart from some experimentation, but your question posed an interesting problem. I hope this helps!

Create unique constraint with null columns

You could create a unique index with a coalesce on the MenuId:

CREATE UNIQUE INDEX
Favorites_UniqueFavorite ON Favorites
(UserId, COALESCE(MenuId, '00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000'), RecipeId);

You'd just need to pick a UUID for the COALESCE that will never occur in "real life". You'd probably never see a zero UUID in real life but you could add a CHECK constraint if you are paranoid (and since they really are out to get you...):

alter table Favorites
add constraint check
(MenuId <> '00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000')

How do I append a node to an existing XML file in java

To append a new data element,just do this...

Document doc = docBuilder.parse(is);

Adding a column to an existing table in a Rails migration

You could rollback the last migration by

Can I apply the required attribute to <select> fields in HTML5?

You need to set the value attribute of option to the empty string:

<select name="status" required>
    <option selected disabled value="">what's your status?</option>
    <option value="code">coding</option>
    <option value="sleep">sleeping</option>
</select>

select will return the value of the selected option to the server when the user presses submit on the form. An empty value is the same as an empty text input -> raising the required message.

w3schools

The value attribute specifies the value to be sent to a server when a form is submitted.

Example

Using PUT method in HTML form

I wrote an npm package called 'html-form-enhancer'. By dropping it into your HTML source, it takes over submission of forms with methods aside from GET and POST, and also adds application/json serialization.

<form method="PUT">

</form>

How do I remove carriage returns with Ruby?

How about the following?

irb(main):003:0> my_string = "Some text with a carriage return \r"
=> "Some text with a carriage return \r"
irb(main):004:0> my_string.gsub(/\r/,"")
=> "Some text with a carriage return "
irb(main):005:0>

Or...

irb(main):007:0> my_string = "Some text with a carriage return \r\n"
=> "Some text with a carriage return \r\n"
irb(main):008:0> my_string.gsub(/\r\n/,"\n")
=> "Some text with a carriage return \n"
irb(main):009:0>

How to read text files with ANSI encoding and non-English letters?

You get the question-mark-diamond characters when your textfile uses high-ANSI encoding -- meaning it uses characters between 127 and 255. Those characters have the eighth (i.e. the most significant) bit set. When ASP.NET reads the textfile it assumes UTF-8 encoding, and that most significant bit has a special meaning.

You must force ASP.NET to interpret the textfile as high-ANSI encoding, by telling it the codepage is 1252:

String textFilePhysicalPath = System.Web.HttpContext.Current.Server.MapPath("~/textfiles/MyInputFile.txt");
String contents = File.ReadAllText(textFilePhysicalPath, System.Text.Encoding.GetEncoding(1252));
lblContents.Text = contents.Replace("\n", "<br />");  // change linebreaks to HTML

How can I replace newlines using PowerShell?

A CRLF is two characters, of course, the CR and the LF. However, `n consists of both. For example:

PS C:\> $x = "Hello
>> World"

PS C:\> $x
Hello
World
PS C:\> $x.contains("`n")
True
PS C:\> $x.contains("`r")
False
PS C:\> $x.replace("o`nW","o There`nThe W")
Hello There
The World
PS C:\>

I think you're running into problems with the `r. I was able to remove the `r from your example, use only `n, and it worked. Of course, I don't know exactly how you generated the original string so I don't know what's in there.

Closing Twitter Bootstrap Modal From Angular Controller

You can add data-dismiss="modal" to your button attributes which call angularjs funtion.

Such as;

<button type="button" class="btn btn-default" data-dismiss="modal">Send Form</button>

Fetching distinct values on a column using Spark DataFrame

Well to obtain all different values in a Dataframe you can use distinct. As you can see in the documentation that method returns another DataFrame. After that you can create a UDF in order to transform each record.

For example:

val df = sc.parallelize(Array((1, 2), (3, 4), (1, 6))).toDF("age", "salary")

// I obtain all different values. If you show you must see only {1, 3}
val distinctValuesDF = df.select(df("age")).distinct

// Define your udf. In this case I defined a simple function, but they can get complicated.
val myTransformationUDF = udf(value => value / 10)

// Run that transformation "over" your DataFrame
val afterTransformationDF = distinctValuesDF.select(myTransformationUDF(col("age")))

Cycles in family tree software

Instead of removing all assertions, you should still check for things like a person being his/her own parent or other impossible situations and present an error. Maybe issue a warning if it is unlikely so the user can still detect common input errors, but it will work if everything is correct.

I would store the data in a vector with a permanent integer for each person and store the parents and children in person objects where the said int is the index of the vector. This would be pretty fast to go between generations (but slow for things like name searches). The objects would be in order of when they were created.

Java SSL: how to disable hostname verification

The answer from @Nani doesn't work anymore with Java 1.8u181. You still need to use your own TrustManager, but it needs to be a X509ExtendedTrustManager instead of a X509TrustManager:

import java.io.IOException;
import java.net.HttpURLConnection;
import java.net.Socket;
import java.net.URL;
import java.security.KeyManagementException;

public class Test {

   public static void main (String [] args) throws IOException {
      // This URL has a certificate with a wrong name
      URL url = new URL ("https://wrong.host.badssl.com/");

      try {
         // opening a connection will fail
         url.openConnection ().connect ();
      } catch (SSLHandshakeException e) {
         System.out.println ("Couldn't open connection: " + e.getMessage ());
      }

      // Bypassing the SSL verification to execute our code successfully
      disableSSLVerification ();

      // now we can open the connection

Speed up rsync with Simultaneous/Concurrent File Transfers?

I've developed a python package called: parallel_sync

https://pythonhosted.org/parallel_sync/pages/examples.html

Here is a sample code how to use it:

from parallel_sync import rsync
creds = {'user': 'myusername', 'key':'~/.ssh/id_rsa', 'host':'192.168.16.31'}
rsync.upload('/tmp/local_dir', '/tmp/remote_dir', creds=creds)

parallelism by default is 10; you can increase it:

from parallel_sync import rsync
creds = {'user': 'myusername', 'key':'~/.ssh/id_rsa', 'host':'192.168.16.31'}
rsync.upload('/tmp/local_dir', '/tmp/remote_dir', creds=creds, parallelism=20)

however note that ssh typically has the MaxSessions by default set to 10 so to increase it beyond 10, you'll have to modify your ssh settings.

How to convert JTextField to String and String to JTextField?

// to string
String text = textField.getText();

// to JTextField
textField.setText(text);

You can also create a new text field: new JTextField(text)

Note that this is not conversion. You have two objects, where one has a property of the type of the other one, and you just set/get it.

Reference: javadocs of JTextField

How to Customize a Progress Bar In Android

Customizing the color of progressbar namely in case of spinner type needs an xml file and initiating codes in their respective java files.

Create an xml file and name it as progressbar.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
    android:layout_width="wrap_content"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:gravity="center"
    tools:context=".Radio_Activity" >

    <LinearLayout
        android:id="@+id/progressbar"
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content" >

        <ProgressBar
            android:id="@+id/spinner"
            android:layout_width="wrap_content"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content" >
        </ProgressBar>
    </LinearLayout>

</LinearLayout>

Use the following code to get the spinner in various expected color.Here we use the hexcode to display spinner in blue color.

Progressbar spinner = (ProgressBar) progrees.findViewById(R.id.spinner);
spinner.getIndeterminateDrawable().setColorFilter(Color.parseColor("#80DAEB"),
                android.graphics.PorterDuff.Mode.MULTIPLY);

No 'Access-Control-Allow-Origin' header is present on the requested resource—when trying to get data from a REST API

Just my two cents... regarding How to use a CORS proxy to get around “No Access-Control-Allow-Origin header” problems

For those of you working with php at the backend, deploying a "CORS proxy" is as simple as:

create a file named 'no-cors.php' with the following content:

$URL = $_GET['url'];
echo json_encode(file_get_contents($URL));
die();

on your front end, do something like:

fetch('https://example.com/no-cors.php' + '?url=' + url)
  .then(response=>{*/Handle Response/*})`

Set time to 00:00:00

Use another constant instead of Calendar.HOUR, use Calendar.HOUR_OF_DAY.

calendar.set(Calendar.HOUR_OF_DAY, 0);

Calendar.HOUR uses 0-11 (for use with AM/PM), and Calendar.HOUR_OF_DAY uses 0-23.

To quote the Javadocs:

public static final int HOUR

Field number for get and set indicating the hour of the morning or afternoon. HOUR is used for the 12-hour clock (0 - 11). Noon and midnight are represented by 0, not by 12. E.g., at 10:04:15.250 PM the HOUR is 10.

and

public static final int HOUR_OF_DAY

Field number for get and set indicating the hour of the day. HOUR_OF_DAY is used for the 24-hour clock. E.g., at 10:04:15.250 PM the HOUR_OF_DAY is 22.

Testing ("now" is currently c. 14:55 on July 23, 2013 Pacific Daylight Time):

public class Main
{
   static SimpleDateFormat sdf = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss");

    public static void main(String[] args)
    {
        Calendar now = Calendar.getInstance();
        now.set(Calendar.HOUR, 0);
        now.set(Calendar.MINUTE, 0);
        now.set(Calendar.SECOND, 0);
        System.out.println(sdf.format(now.getTime()));
        now.set(Calendar.HOUR_OF_DAY, 0);
        System.out.println(sdf.format(now.getTime()));
    }
}

Output:

$ javac Main.java

How can I use goto in Javascript?

Another alternative way to achieve the same is to use the tail calls. But, we don’t have anything like that in JavaScript. So generally, the goto is accomplished in JS using the below two keywords. break and continue, reference: Goto Statement in JavaScript

Here is an example:

var number = 0;
start_position: while(true) {
document.write("Anything you want to print");
number++;
if(number < 100) continue start_position;
break;
}

Difference between Arrays.asList(array) and new ArrayList<Integer>(Arrays.asList(array))

First of all Arrays class is an utility class which contains no. of utility methods to operate on Arrays (thanks to Arrays class otherwise we would have needed to create our own methods to act on Array objects)

asList() method:

asList method is one of the utility methods of Array class ,it is static method thats why we can call this method by its class name (like Arrays.asList(T...a) )
Now here is the twist, please note that this method doesn't create new ArrayList object, it just returns a List reference to existing Array object(so now after using asList method, two references to existing Array object gets created)
and this is the reason, all methods that operate on List object , may NOT work on this Array object using List reference like for example, Arrays size is fixed in length, hence you obviously can not add or remove elements from Array object using this List reference (like list.add(10) or list.remove(10); else it will throw UnsupportedOperationException)
any change you are doing using list reference will be reflected in exiting Arrays object ( as you are operating on existing Array object by using list reference)

In first case you are creating a new Arraylist object (in 2nd case only reference to existing Array object is created but not a new ArrayList object) ,so now there are two different objects one is Array object and another is ArrayList object and no connection between them ( so changes in one object will not be reflected/affected in another object ( that is in case 2 Array and Arraylist are two different objects)

case 1:

Integer [] ia = {1,2,3,4};
System.out.println("Array : "+Arrays.toString(ia));
List<Integer> list1 = new ArrayList<Integer>(Arrays.asList(ia));  // new ArrayList object is created , no connection between existing Array Object
list1.add(5);
list1.add(6);
list1.remove(0);
list1.remove(0);
System.out.println("list1 : "+list1);
System.out.println("Array : "+Arrays.toString(ia));

case 2:

Integer [] ia = {1,2,3,4};
System.out.println("Array : "+Arrays.toString(ia));
List<Integer> list2 = Arrays.asList(ia); // creates only a (new ) List reference to existing Array object (and NOT a new ArrayList Object)
//  list2.add(5); //  it will throw java.lang.UnsupportedOperationException - invalid operation (as Array size is fixed)
list2.set(0,10);  // making changes in existing Array object using List reference - valid 
list2.set(1,11); 
ia[2]=12;     // making changes in existing Array object using Array reference - valid
System.out.println("list2 : "+list2);
System.out.println("Array : "+Arrays.toString(ia));

How do you create a remote Git branch?

I've solved this by adding this into my bash ~/.profile:

function gitb() { git checkout -b $1 && git push --set-upstream origin $1; }

Then to start up a new local + remote branch, I write:

gitb feature/mynewbranch

This creates the branch and does the first push, not just to setup tracking (so that later git pull and git push work without extra arguments), but actually confirming that the target repo doesn't already have such branch in it.

Keras, how do I predict after I trained a model?

You must use the same Tokenizer you used to build your model!

Else this will give different vector to each word.

Then, I am using:

phrase = "not good"
tokens = myTokenizer.texts_to_matrix([phrase])

model.predict(np.array(tokens))

Split long commands in multiple lines through Windows batch file

(This is basically a rewrite of Wayne's answer but with the confusion around the caret cleared up. So I've posted it as a CW. I'm not shy about editing answers, but completely rewriting them seems inappropriate.)

You can break up long lines with the caret (^), just remember that the caret and the newline that follows it are removed entirely from the command, so if you put it where a space would be required (such as between parameters), be sure to include the space as well (either before the ^, or at the beginning of the next line — that latter choice may help make it clearer it's a continuation).

Examples: (all tested on Windows XP and Windows 7)

xcopy file1.txt file2.txt

can be written as:

xcopy^
 file1.txt^
 file2.txt

xcopy ^
file1.txt ^
file2.txt

or even

xc^
opy ^
file1.txt ^
file2.txt

(That last works because there are no spaces betwen the xc and the ^, and no spaces at the beginning of the next line. So when you remove the ^ and the newline, you get...xcopy.)

For readability and sanity, it's probably best breaking only between parameters (be sure to include the space).

Be sure that the ^ is not the last thing in a batch file, as there appears to be a major issue with that.

How to enable scrolling on website that disabled scrolling?

In C can a long printf statement be broken up into multiple lines?

I don't think using one printf statement to print string literals as seen above is a good programming practice; rather, one can use the piece of code below:

printf("name: %s\t",sp->name);
printf("args: %s\t",sp->args);
printf("value: %s\t",sp->value);
printf("arraysize: %s\t",sp->name);

LINQ Orderby Descending Query

You need to choose a Property to sort by and pass it as a lambda expression to OrderByDescending

like:

.OrderByDescending(x => x.Delivery.SubmissionDate);

Really, though the first version of your LINQ statement should work. Is t.Delivery.SubmissionDate actually populated with valid dates?

What is the point of WORKDIR on Dockerfile?

Be careful where you set WORKDIR because it can affect the continuous integration flow. For example, setting it to /home/circleci/project will cause error something like .ssh or whatever is the remote circleci is doing at setup time.

Bootstrap collapse animation not smooth

Mine got smoother not by wrapping each child but wrapping whole markup with a helper div. Like this:

         accordeon markup inside...

How to draw vectors (physical 2D/3D vectors) in MATLAB?

I found this arrow(start, end) function on MATLAB Central which is perfect for this purpose of drawing vectors with true magnitude and direction.

Return first N key:value pairs from dict

Python's dicts are not ordered, so it's meaningless to ask for the "first N" keys.

The collections.OrderedDict class is available if that's what you need. You could efficiently get its first four elements as

import itertools
import collections

d = collections.OrderedDict((('foo', 'bar'), (1, 'a'), (2, 'b'), (3, 'c'), (4, 'd')))
x = itertools.islice(d.items(), 0, 4)

for key, value in x:
    print key, value

itertools.islice allows you to lazily take a slice of elements from any iterator. If you want the result to be reusable you'd need to convert it to a list or something, like so:

x = list(itertools.islice(d.items(), 0, 4))

GoogleMaps API KEY for testing

There seems no way to have google maps api key free without credit card. To test the functionality of google map you can use it while leaving the api key field "EMPTY". It will show a message saying "For Development Purpose Only". And that way you can test google map functionality without putting billing information for google map api key.

How can I print out just the index of a pandas dataframe?

You can access the index attribute of a df using df.index[i]

>> import pandas as pd
>> import numpy as np
>> df = pd.DataFrame({'a':np.arange(5), 'b':np.random.randn(5)})
   a         b
0  0  1.088998
1  1 -1.381735
2  2  0.035058
3  3 -2.273023
4  4  1.345342

>> df.index[1] ## Second index
>> df.index[-1] ## Last index

>> for i in xrange(len(df)):print df.index[i] ## Using loop
...

Create table variable in MySQL

MYSQL 8 does, in a way:

MYSQL 8 supports JSON tables, so you could load your results into a JSON variable and select from that variable using the JSON_TABLE() command.

How to set value to form control in Reactive Forms in Angular

Setting or Updating of Reactive Forms Form Control values can be done using both patchValue and setValue. However, it might be better to use patchValue in some instances.

patchValue does not require all controls to be specified within the parameters in order to update/set the value of your Form Controls. On the other hand, setValue requires all Form Control values to be filled in, and it will return an error if any of your controls are not specified within the parameter.

In this scenario, we will want to use patchValue, since we are only updating user and questioning:

this.qService.editQue([params["id"]]).subscribe(res => {
  this.question = res;
  this.editqueForm.patchValue({
    user: this.question.user,
    questioning: this.question.questioning
  });
});

EDIT: If you feel like doing some of ES6's Object Destructuring, you may be interested to do this instead

const { user, questioning } = this.question;

this.editqueForm.patchValue({
  user,
  questioning
});

Ta-dah!

Format a message using MessageFormat.format() in Java

Just be sure you have used double apostrophe ('')

String text = java.text.MessageFormat.format("You''re about to delete {0} rows.", 5);
System.out.println(text);

Edit:

Within a String, a pair of single quotes can be used to quote any arbitrary characters except single quotes. For example, pattern string "'{0}'" represents string "{0}", not a FormatElement. ...

Any unmatched quote is treated as closed at the end of the given pattern. For example, pattern string "'{0}" is treated as pattern "'{0}'".

Nesting queries in SQL

You need to join the two tables and then filter the result in where clause:

SELECT country.name as country, country.headofstate 
from country
inner join city on city.id = country.capital
where city.population > 100000
and country.headofstate like 'A%'

How to center a <p> element inside a <div> container?

Centered and middled content ?

Do it this way :

<table style="width:100%">
    <tr>
        <td valign="middle" align="center">Table once ruled centering</td>
    </tr>
</table>

I fiddled it here

Ha, let me guess .. you want DIVs ..

just make your first outter DIV behave like a table-cell then style it with vertical align:middle;

<div>
    <p>I want this paragraph to be at the center, but I can't.</p>
</div>

div {
    width:500px;
    height:100px;
    background-color:aqua;
    text-align:center;
    /*  there it is */
    display:table-cell;
    vertical-align:middle;
}

Why is the gets function so dangerous that it should not be used?

I read recently, in a USENET post to comp.lang.c, that gets() is getting removed from the Standard. WOOHOO

You'll be happy to know that the committee just voted (unanimously, as it turns out) to remove gets() from the draft as well.

Apache is "Unable to initialize module" because of module's and PHP's API don't match after changing the PHP configuration

In my case, I used lnmp to install php with version 5.4.45. But maybe because I installed php5-dev after lnmp (which I guess is not necessary if you installed lnmp), my phpize and php-config both point to older version tools than php.
I solved this by change the soft link of /etc/alternatives/phpize and /etc/alternatives/php-config to /usr/local/php/bin/phpize and /usr/local/php/bin/php-config.
Hopes this is helpful.

Simple line plots using seaborn

Yes, you can do the same in Seaborn directly. This is done with tsplot() which allows either a single array as input, or two arrays where the other is 'time' i.e. x-axis.

import seaborn as sns

data =  [1,5,3,2,6] * 20
time = range(100)

sns.tsplot(data, time)

How do I reference a cell within excel named range?

I've been willing to use something like this in a sheet where all lines are identical and usually refer to other cells in the same line - but as the formulas get complex, the references to other columns get hard to read. I tried the trick given in other answers, with for example column A named as "Sales" I can refers to it as INDEX(Sales;row()) but I found it a bit too long for my tastes.

However, in this particular case, I found that using Sales alone works just as well - Excel (2010 here) just gets the corresponding row automatically.

It appears to work with other ranges too; for example let's say I have values in A2:A11 which I name Sales, I can just use =Sales*0.21 in B2:11 and it will use the same row value, giving out ten different results.

I also found a nice trick on this page: named ranges can also be relative. Going back to your original question, if your value "Age" is in column A and assuming you're using that value in formulas in the same line, you can define Age as being $A2 instead of $A$2, so that when used in B5 or C5 for example, it will actually refer to $A5. (The Name Manager always show the reference relative to the cell currently selected)

jQuery vs document.querySelectorAll

document.querySelectorAll() ~~has several inconsistencies across browsers and is not supported in older browsers~~^{This probably won't cause any trouble anymore nowadays}. It has a very unintuitive scoping mechanism and some other not so nice features. Also with javascript you have a harder time working with the result sets of these queries, which in many cases you might want to do. jQuery provides functions to work on them like: filter(), find(), children(), parent(), map(), not() and several more. Not to mention the jQuery ability to work with pseudo-class selectors.

However, I would not consider these things as jQuery's strongest features but other things like "working" on the dom (events, styling, animation & manipulation) in a crossbrowser compatible way or the ajax interface.

If you only want the selector engine from jQuery you can use the one jQuery itself is using: Sizzle That way you have the power of jQuerys Selector engine without the nasty overhead.

EDIT: Just for the record, I'm a huge vanilla JavaScript fan. Nonetheless it's a fact that you sometimes need 10 lines of JavaScript where you would write 1 line jQuery.

Of course you have to be disciplined to not write jQuery like this:

$('ul.first').find('.foo').css('background-color', 'red').end().find('.bar').css('background-color', 'green').end();

This is extremely hard to read, while the latter is pretty clear:

$('ul.first')
   .find('.foo')
      .css('background-color', 'red')
.end()
   .find('.bar')
      .css('background-color', 'green')
.end();

The equivalent JavaScript would be far more complex illustrated by the pseudocode above:

1) Find the element, consider taking all element or only the first.

// $('ul.first')
// taking querySelectorAll has to be considered
var e = document.querySelector("ul.first");

2) Iterate over the array of child nodes via some (possibly nested or recursive) loops and check the class (classlist not available in all browsers!)

//.find('.foo')
for (var i = 0;i<e.length;i++){
     // older browser don't have element.classList -> even more complex
     e[i].children.classList.contains('foo');
     // do some more magic stuff here
}

3) apply the css style

// .css('background-color', 'green')
// note different notation
element.style.backgroundColor = "green" // or
element.style["background-color"] = "green"

This code would be at least two times as much lines of code you write with jQuery. Also you would have to consider cross-browser issues which will compromise the severe speed advantage (besides from the reliability) of the native code.

Access multiple elements of list knowing their index

Kind of pythonic way:

Using Page_Load and Page_PreRender in ASP.Net

Page_Load happens after ViewState and PostData is sent into all of your server side controls by ASP.NET controls being created on the page. Page_Init is the event fired prior to ViewState and PostData being reinstated. Page_Load is where you typically do any page wide initilization. Page_PreRender is the last event you have a chance to handle prior to the page's state being rendered into HTML. Page_Load is the more typical event to work with.

PHP cURL GET request and request's body

The accepted answer is wrong. GET requests can indeed contain a body. This is the solution implemented by WordPress, as an example:

curl_setopt( $ch, CURLOPT_CUSTOMREQUEST, 'GET' );
curl_setopt( $ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $body );

EDIT: To clarify, the initial curl_setopt is necessary in this instance, because libcurl will default the HTTP method to POST when using CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS (see documentation).

How update the _id of one MongoDB Document?

Here I have a solution that avoid multiple requests, for loops and old document removal.

You can easily create a new idea manually using something like:_id:ObjectId() But knowing Mongo will automatically assign an _id if missing, you can use aggregate to create a $project containing all the fields of your document, but omit the field _id. You can then save it with $out

So if your document is:

{
"_id":ObjectId("5b5ed345cfbce6787588e480"),
"title": "foo",
"description": "bar"
}

Then your query will be:

    db.getCollection('myCollection').aggregate([
        {$match:
             {_id: ObjectId("5b5ed345cfbce6787588e480")}
        }        
        {$project:
            {
             title: '$title',
             description: '$description'             
            }     
        },
        {$out: 'myCollection'}
    ])

Stop setInterval

You need to set the return value of setInterval to a variable within the scope of the click handler, then use clearInterval() like this:

var interval = null;
$(document).on('ready',function(){
    interval = setInterval(updateDiv,3000);
});

function updateDiv(){
    $.ajax({
        url: 'getContent.php',
        success: function(data){
            $('.square').html(data);
        },
        error: function(){
            clearInterval(interval); // stop the interval
            $.playSound('oneday.wav');
            $('.square').html('<span style="color:red">Connection problems</span>');
        }
    });
}

Is it possible to wait until all javascript files are loaded before executing javascript code?

Expanding a bit on @Eruant's answer,

$(window).on('load', function() {
    // your code here
});

Works very well with both async and defer while loading on scripts.

So you can import all scripts like this:

<script src="/js/script1.js" async defer></script>
<script src="/js/script2.js" async defer></script>
<script src="/js/script3.js" async defer></script>

Just make sure script1 doesn't call functions from script3 before $(window).on('load' ..., make sure to call them inside window load event.

More about async/defer here.

Init array of structs in Go

You can have it this way:

It is important to mind the commas after each struct item or set of items.

earnings := []LineItemsType{

        LineItemsType{

            TypeName: "Earnings",

            Totals: 0.0,

            HasTotal: true,

            items: []LineItems{

                LineItems{

                    name: "Basic Pay",

                    amount: 100.0,
                },

                LineItems{

                    name: "Commuter Allowance",

                    amount: 100.0,
                },
            },
        },
        LineItemsType{

            TypeName: "Earnings",

            Totals: 0.0,

            HasTotal: true,

            items: []LineItems{

                LineItems{

                    name: "Basic Pay",

                    amount: 100.0,
                },

                LineItems{

                    name: "Commuter Allowance",

                    amount: 100.0,
                },
            },
        },
    }

Unexpected character encountered while parsing value

Suppose this is your json

}

if you again want deserialize venue, modify json as below

{
  "date":"11/05/2016",
  "venue": "{\"ID\":\"12\",\"CITY\":\"Delhi\"}"
}

then try to deserialize to respective class by taking the value of venue

Simple 'if' or logic statement in Python

Here's a Boolean thing:

if (not suffix == "flac" )  or (not suffix == "cue" ):   # WRONG! FAILS
    print  filename + ' is not a flac or cue file'

but

if not (suffix == "flac"  or suffix == "cue" ):     # CORRECT!
       print  filename + ' is not a flac or cue file'

(not a) or (not b) == not ( a and b ) , is false only if a and b are both true

not (a or b) is true only if a and be are both false.

how to instanceof List<MyType>?

The major concern here is that the collections don't keep the type in the definition. The types are only available in runtime. I came up with a function to test complex collections (it has one constraint though).

Check if the object is an instance of a generic collection. In order to represent a collection,

No classes, always false
One class, it is not a collection and returns the result of instanceof evaluation
To represent a List or Set, the type of the list comes next e.g. {List, Integer} for List<Integer>
To represent a Map, the key and value types come next e.g. {Map, String, Integer} for Map<String, Integer>

More complex use cases could be generated using the same rules. For example in order to represent List<Map<String, GenericRecord>>, it can be called as

    Map<String, Integer> map = new HashMap<>();
    map.put("S1", 1);
    map.put("S2", 2);
    List<Map<String, Integer> obj = new ArrayList<>();
    obj.add(map);
    isInstanceOfGenericCollection(obj, List.class, List.class, Map.class, String.class, GenericRecord.class);

Note that this implementation doesn't support nested types in the Map. Hence, the type of key and value should be a class and not a collection. But it shouldn't be hard to add it.

    public static boolean isInstanceOfGenericCollection(Object object, Class<?>... classes) {
        if (classes.length == 0) return false;
        if (classes.length == 1) return classes[0].isInstance(object);
        if (classes[0].equals(List.class))
            return object instanceof List && ((List<?>) object).stream().allMatch(item -> isInstanceOfGenericCollection(item, Arrays.copyOfRange(classes, 1, classes.length)));
        if (classes[0].equals(Set.class))
            return object instanceof Set && ((Set<?>) object).stream().allMatch(item -> isInstanceOfGenericCollection(item, Arrays.copyOfRange(classes, 1, classes.length)));
        if (classes[0].equals(Map.class))
            return object instanceof Map &&
                    ((Map<?, ?>) object).keySet().stream().allMatch(classes[classes.length - 2]::isInstance) &&
                    ((Map<?, ?>) object).values().stream().allMatch(classes[classes.length - 1]::isInstance);
        return false;
    }

Is there an easy way to convert jquery code to javascript?

http://net.tutsplus.com/tutorials/javascript-ajax/from-jquery-to-javascript-a-reference/

Whether we like it or not, more and more developers are being introduced to the world of JavaScript through jQuery first. In many ways, these newcomers are the lucky ones. They have access to a plethora of new JavaScript APIs, which make the process of DOM traversal (something that many folks depend on jQuery for) considerably easier. Unfortunately, they don’t know about these APIs!

In this article, we’ll take a variety of common jQuery tasks, and convert them to both modern and legacy JavaScript.

I proposed it in a comment to OP, and after his suggestion, i publish it has an answer for everyone to refer to.

Also, Jeffrey Way mentioned about his inspiration witch seems to be a good primer for understanding : http://sharedfil.es/js-48hIfQE4XK.html

Has a teaser, this document comparison of jQuery to javascript :

$(document).ready(function() {
  // code…
});

document.addEventListener("DOMContentLoaded", function() {
  // code…
});

$("a").click(function() {
  // code…
})

[].forEach.call(document.querySelectorAll("a"), function(el) {
  el.addEventListener("click", function() {
    // code…
  });
});

You should take a look.

Java Logging - where is my log file?

Why GDB jumps unpredictably between lines and prints variables as "<value optimized out>"?

When debugging optimized programs (which may be necessary if the bug doesn't show up in debug builds), you often have to understand assembly compiler generated.

In your particular case, return value of cpnd_find_exact_ckptinfo will be stored in the register which is used on your platform for return values. On ix86, that would be %eax. On x86_64: %rax, etc. You may need to google for '[your processor] procedure calling convention' if it's none of the above.

You can examine that register in GDB and you can set it. E.g. on ix86:

(gdb) p $eax
(gdb) set $eax = 0

How to stop and restart memcached server?

To shutdown memcache daemon:

sudo service memcached stop

To start memcached daemon:

sudo service memcached start

Restart memcached server:

sudo service memcached restart

You can see if Memcache is currently runing:

sudo ps -e | grep memcached

And you can check the TCP or UDP ports if something (e.g. Memcache) is listening to it:

netstat -ap | grep TheChosenPort#
netstat -ap | grep 11211

For some Linuxes you need to change your commands like:

sudo /etc/init.d/memcached start
sudo /etc/init.d/memcached restart
sudo /etc/init.d/memcached stop

How to return value from an asynchronous callback function?

It makes no sense to return values from a callback. Instead, do the "foo()" work you want to do inside your callback.

Asynchronous callbacks are invoked by the browser or by some framework like the Google geocoding library when events happen. There's no place for returned values to go. A callback function can return a value, in other words, but the code that calls the function won't pay attention to the return value.

How to set TLS version on apache HttpClient

Using the HttpClientBuilder in HttpClient 4.5.x with a custom HttpClientConnectionManager with the defaults of HttpClientBuilder :

SSLConnectionSocketFactory sslConnectionSocketFactory = 
    new SSLConnectionSocketFactory(SSLContexts.createDefault(),          
                                   new String[] { "TLSv1.2" },                                            
                                   null, 
           SSLConnectionSocketFactory.getDefaultHostnameVerifier());

PoolingHttpClientConnectionManager poolingHttpClientConnectionManager =
    new PoolingHttpClientConnectionManager(
        RegistryBuilder.<ConnectionSocketFactory> create()
                       .register("http",
                                 PlainConnectionSocketFactory.getSocketFactory())
                       .register("https",
                                 sslConnectionSocketFactory)
                       .build());

// Customize the connection pool

CloseableHttpClient httpClient = HttpClientBuilder.create()
                                                  .setConnectionManager(poolingHttpClientConnectionManager)
                                                  .build()

Without a custom HttpClientConnectionManager :

SSLConnectionSocketFactory sslConnectionSocketFactory = 
    new SSLConnectionSocketFactory(SSLContexts.createDefault(),          
                                   new String[] { "TLSv1.2" },                                            
                                   null, 
           SSLConnectionSocketFactory.getDefaultHostnameVerifier());

CloseableHttpClient httpClient = HttpClientBuilder.create()
                                                  .setSSLSocketFactory(sslConnectionSocketFactory)
                                                  .build()

Passing bash variable to jq

I know is a bit later to reply, sorry. But that works for me.

export K8S_public_load_balancer_url="$(kubectl get services -n ${TENANT}-production -o wide | grep "ingress-nginx-internal$" | awk '{print $4}')"

And now I am able to fetch and pass the content of the variable to jq

export TF_VAR_public_load_balancer_url="$(aws elbv2 describe-load-balancers --region eu-west-1 | jq -r '.LoadBalancers[] | select (.DNSName == "'$K8S_public_load_balancer_url'") | .LoadBalancerArn')"

In my case I needed to use double quote and quote to access the variable value.

Cheers.

How to get old Value with onchange() event in text box

A dirty trick I somtimes use, is hiding variables in the 'name' attribute (that I normally don't use for other purposes):

Somewhat unexpectedly, both the old and the new value is then submitted to someFunction(oldValue,newValue)

How to sort two lists (which reference each other) in the exact same way

I would like to expand open jfs's answer, which worked great for my problem: sorting two lists by a third, decorated list:

We can create our decorated list in any way, but in this case we will create it from the elements of one of the two original lists, that we want to sort:

# say we have the following list and we want to sort both by the algorithms name 
# (if we were to sort by the string_list, it would sort by the numerical 
# value in the strings)
string_list = ["0.123 Algo. XYZ", "0.345 Algo. BCD", "0.987 Algo. ABC"]
dict_list = [{"dict_xyz": "XYZ"}, {"dict_bcd": "BCD"}, {"dict_abc": "ABC"}]

# thus we need to create the decorator list, which we can now use to sort
decorated = [text[6:] for text in string_list]  
# decorated list to sort
>>> decorated
['Algo. XYZ', 'Algo. BCD', 'Algo. ABC']

Now we can apply jfs's solution to sort our two lists by the third

# create and sort the list of indices
sorted_indices = list(range(len(string_list)))
sorted_indices.sort(key=decorated.__getitem__)

# map sorted indices to the two, original lists
sorted_stringList = list(map(string_list.__getitem__, sorted_indices))
sorted_dictList = list(map(dict_list.__getitem__, sorted_indices))

# output
>>> sorted_stringList
['0.987 Algo. ABC', '0.345 Algo. BCD', '0.123 Algo. XYZ']
>>> sorted_dictList
[{'dict_abc': 'ABC'}, {'dict_bcd': 'BCD'}, {'dict_xyz': 'XYZ'}]

Why is there no ForEach extension method on IEnumerable?

Is it me or is the List<T>.Foreach pretty much been made obsolete by Linq. Originally there was

foreach(X x in Y)

where Y simply had to be IEnumerable (Pre 2.0), and implement a GetEnumerator(). If you look at the MSIL generated you can see that it is exactly the same as

IEnumerator<int> enumerator = list.GetEnumerator();
while (enumerator.MoveNext())
{
    int i = enumerator.Current;

    Console.WriteLine(i);
}

(See http://alski.net/post/0a-for-foreach-forFirst-forLast0a-0a-.aspx for the MSIL)

Then in DotNet2.0 Generics came along and the List. Foreach has always felt to me to be an implementation of the Vistor pattern, (see Design Patterns by Gamma, Helm, Johnson, Vlissides).

Now of course in 3.5 we can instead use a Lambda to the same effect, for an example try http://dotnet-developments.blogs.techtarget.com/2008/09/02/iterators-lambda-and-linq-oh-my/

For vs. while in C programming?

They're all interchangeable; you could pick one type and use nothing but that forever, but usually one is more convenient for a given task. It's like saying "why have switch, you can just use a bunch of if statements" -- true, but if it's a common pattern to check a variable for a set of values, it's convenient and much easier to read if there's a language feature to do that

How to delete an element from an array in C#

Removing from an array itself is not simple, as you then have to deal with resizing. This is one of the great advantages of using something like a List<int> instead. It provides Remove/RemoveAt in 2.0, and lots of LINQ extensions for 3.0.

If you can, refactor to use a List<> or similar.

Any difference between await Promise.all() and multiple await?

First difference - Fail Fast

I agree with @zzzzBov's answer, but the "fail fast" advantage of Promise.all is not the only difference. Some users in the comments have asked why using Promise.all is worth it when it's only faster in the negative scenario (when some task fails). And I ask, why not? If I have two independent async parallel tasks and the first one takes a very long time to resolve but the second is rejected in a very short time, why leave the user to wait for the longer call to finish to receive an error message? In real-life applications we must consider the negative scenario. But OK - in this first difference you can decide which alternative to use: Promise.all vs. multiple await.

Second difference - Error Handling

But when considering error handling, YOU MUST use Promise.all. It is not possible to correctly handle errors of async parallel tasks triggered with multiple awaits. In the negative scenario you will always end with UnhandledPromiseRejectionWarning and PromiseRejectionHandledWarning, regardless of where you use try/ catch. That is why Promise.all was designed. Of course someone could say that we can suppress those errors using process.on('unhandledRejection', err => {}) and process.on('rejectionHandled', err => {}) but this is not good practice. I've found many examples on the internet that do not consider error handling for two or more independent async parallel tasks at all, or consider it but in the wrong way - just using try/ catch and hoping it will catch errors. It's almost impossible to find good practice in this.

Summary

TL;DR: Never use multiple await for two or more independent async parallel tasks, because you will not be able to handle errors correctly. Always use Promise.all() for this use case.

Async/ await is not a replacement for Promises, it's just a pretty way to use promises. Async code is written in "sync style" and we can avoid multiple thens in promises.

Some people say that when using Promise.all() we can't handle task errors separately, and that we can only handle the error from the first rejected promise (separate handling can be useful e.g. for logging). This is not a problem - see "Addition" heading at the bottom of this answer.

Examples

Consider this async task...

const task = function(taskNum, seconds, negativeScenario) {
  return new Promise((resolve, reject) => {
    setTimeout(_ => {
      if (negativeScenario)
        reject(new Error('Task ' + taskNum + ' failed!'));
      else
        resolve('Task ' + taskNum + ' succeed!');
    }, seconds * 1000)
  });
};

When you run tasks in the positive scenario there is no difference between Promise.all and multiple awaits. Both examples end with Task 1 succeed! Task 2 succeed! after 5 seconds.

// Promise.all alternative
const run = async function() {
  // tasks run immediate in parallel and wait for both results
  let [r1, r2] = await Promise.all([
    task(1, 5, false),
    task(2, 5, false)
  ]);
  console.log(r1 + ' ' + r2);
};
run();
// at 5th sec: Task 1 succeed! Task 2 succeed!

// multiple await alternative
const run = async function() {
  // tasks run immediate in parallel
  let t1 = task(1, 5, false);
  let t2 = task(2, 5, false);
  // wait for both results
  let r1 = await t1;
  let r2 = await t2;
  console.log(r1 + ' ' + r2);
};
run();
// at 5th sec: Task 1 succeed! Task 2 succeed!

However, when the first task takes 10 seconds and succeeds, and the second task takes 5 seconds but fails, there are differences in the errors issued.

// Promise.all alternative
const run = async function() {
  let [r1, r2] = await Promise.all([
      task(1, 10, false),
      task(2, 5, true)
  ]);
  console.log(r1 + ' ' + r2);
};
run();
// at 5th sec: UnhandledPromiseRejectionWarning: Error: Task 2 failed!

// multiple await alternative
const run = async function() {
  let t1 = task(1, 10, false);
  let t2 = task(2, 5, true);
  let r1 = await t1;
  let r2 = await t2;
  console.log(r1 + ' ' + r2);
};
run();
// at 5th sec: UnhandledPromiseRejectionWarning: Error: Task 2 failed!
// at 10th sec: PromiseRejectionHandledWarning: Promise rejection was handled asynchronously (rejection id: 1)
// at 10th sec: UnhandledPromiseRejectionWarning: Error: Task 2 failed!

We should already notice here that we are doing something wrong when using multiple awaits in parallel. Let's try handling the errors:

// Promise.all alternative
const run = async function() {
  let [r1, r2] = await Promise.all([
    task(1, 10, false),
    task(2, 5, true)
  ]);
  console.log(r1 + ' ' + r2);
};
run().catch(err => { console.log('Caught error', err); });
// at 5th sec: Caught error Error: Task 2 failed!

As you can see, to successfully handle errors, we need to add just one catch to the run function and add code with catch logic into the callback. We do not need to handle errors inside the run function because async functions do this automatically - promise rejection of the task function causes rejection of the run function.

To avoid a callback we can use "sync style" (async/ await + try/ catch)
try { await run(); } catch(err) { }
but in this example it's not possible, because we can't use await in the main thread - it can only be used in async functions (because nobody wants to block main thread). To test if handling works in "sync style" we can call the run function from another async function or use an IIFE (Immediately Invoked Function Expression: MDN):

(async function() { 
  try { 
    await run(); 
  } catch(err) { 
    console.log('Caught error', err); 
  }
})();

This is the only correct way to run two or more async parallel tasks and handle errors. You should avoid the examples below.

Bad Examples

// multiple await alternative
const run = async function() {
  let t1 = task(1, 10, false);
  let t2 = task(2, 5, true);
  let r1 = await t1;
  let r2 = await t2;
  console.log(r1 + ' ' + r2);
};

We can try to handle errors in the code above in several ways...

try { run(); } catch(err) { console.log('Caught error', err); };
// at 5th sec: UnhandledPromiseRejectionWarning: Error: Task 2 failed!
// at 10th sec: UnhandledPromiseRejectionWarning: Error: Task 2 failed!
// at 10th sec: PromiseRejectionHandledWarning: Promise rejection was handled

... nothing got caught because it handles sync code but run is async.

run().catch(err => { console.log('Caught error', err); });
// at 5th sec: UnhandledPromiseRejectionWarning: Error: Task 2 failed!
// at 10th sec: Caught error Error: Task 2 failed!
// at 10th sec: PromiseRejectionHandledWarning: Promise rejection was handled asynchronously (rejection id: 1)

... huh? We see firstly that the error for task 2 was not handled and later that it was caught. Misleading and still full of errors in console, it's still unusable this way.

(async function() { try { await run(); } catch(err) { console.log('Caught error', err); }; })();
// at 5th sec: UnhandledPromiseRejectionWarning: Error: Task 2 failed!
// at 10th sec: Caught error Error: Task 2 failed!
// at 10th sec: PromiseRejectionHandledWarning: Promise rejection was handled asynchronously (rejection id: 1)

... the same as above. User @Qwerty in his deleted answer asked about this strange behavior where an error seems to be caught but are also unhandled. We catch error the because run() is rejected on the line with the await keyword and can be caught using try/ catch when calling run(). We also get an unhandled error because we are calling an async task function synchronously (without the await keyword), and this task runs and fails outside the run() function.
It is similar to when we are not able to handle errors by try/ catch when calling some sync function which calls setTimeout:

function test() {
  setTimeout(function() { 
    console.log(causesError); 
    }, 0);
}; 
try { 
  test(); 
} catch(e) { 
  /* this will never catch error */ 
}`.

Another poor example:

const run = async function() {
  try {
    let t1 = task(1, 10, false);
    let t2 = task(2, 5, true);
    let r1 = await t1;
    let r2 = await t2;
  }
  catch (err) {
    return new Error(err);
  }
  console.log(r1 + ' ' + r2);
};
run().catch(err => { console.log('Caught error', err); });
// at 5th sec: UnhandledPromiseRejectionWarning: Error: Task 2 failed!
// at 10th sec: PromiseRejectionHandledWarning: Promise rejection was handled asynchronously (rejection id: 1)

... "only" two errors (3rd one is missing) but nothing is caught.

Addition (handling separate task errors and also first-fail error)

const run = async function() {
  let [r1, r2] = await Promise.all([
    task(1, 10, true).catch(err => { console.log('Task 1 failed!'); throw err; }),
    task(2, 5, true).catch(err => { console.log('Task 2 failed!'); throw err; })
  ]);
  console.log(r1 + ' ' + r2);
};
run().catch(err => { console.log('Run failed (does not matter which task)!'); });
// at 5th sec: Task 2 failed!
// at 5th sec: Run failed (does not matter which task)!
// at 10th sec: Task 1 failed!

... note that in this example I rejected both tasks to better demonstrate what happens (throw err is used to fire final error).

Why is the Visual Studio 2015/2017/2019 Test Runner not discovering my xUnit v2 tests

Do make sure that you haven't written your unit tests in a .NET Standard 2.0 Class Library. The visualstudio runner does not support running tests in netstandard2.0 class libraries at the time of this writing.

TypeError: can only concatenate list (not "str") to list

That's not how to add an item to a string. This:

newinv=inventory+str(add)

Means you're trying to concatenate a list and a string. To add an item to a list, use the list.append() method.

inventory.append(add) #adds a new item to inventory
print(inventory) #prints the new inventory

Is it possible to set an object to null?

You want to check if an object is NULL/empty. Being NULL and empty are not the same. Like Justin and Brian have already mentioned, in C++ NULL is an assignment you'd typically associate with pointers. You can overload operator= perhaps, but think it through real well if you actually want to do this. Couple of other things:

In C++ NULL pointer is very different to pointer pointing to an 'empty' object.
Why not have a bool IsEmpty() method that returns true if an object's variables are reset to some default state? Guess that might bypass the NULL usage.
Having something like A* p = new A; ... p = NULL; is bad (no delete p) unless you can ensure your code will be garbage collected. If anything, this'd lead to memory leaks and with several such leaks there's good chance you'd have slow code.
You may want to do this class Null {}; Null _NULL; and then overload operator= and operator!= of other classes depending on your situation.

Perhaps you should post us some details about the context to help you better with option 4.

how to send a post request with a web browser

You can create an html page with a form, having method="post" and action="yourdesiredurl" and open it with your browser.

As an alternative, there are some browser plugins for developers that allow you to do that, like Web Developer Toolbar for Firefox

CSS3's border-radius property and border-collapse:collapse don't mix. How can I use border-radius to create a collapsed table with rounded corners?

The given answers only work when there are no borders around the table, which is very limiting!

I have a macro in SASS to do this, which fully supports external and internal borders, achieving the same styling as border-collapse: collapse without actually specifying it.

Tested in FF/IE8/Safari/Chrome.

Gives nice rounded borders in pure CSS in all browsers but IE8 (degrades gracefully) since IE8 doesn't support border-radius :(

Some older browsers may require vendor prefixes to work with border-radius, so feel free to add those prefixes to your code as necessary.

This answer is not the shortest - but it works.

.roundedTable {
  border-radius: 20px / 20px;
  border: 1px solid #333333;
  border-spacing: 0px;
}
.roundedTable th {
  padding: 4px;
  background: #ffcc11;
  border-left: 1px solid #333333;
}
.roundedTable th:first-child {
  border-left: none;
  border-top-left-radius: 20px;
}
.roundedTable th:last-child {
  border-top-right-radius: 20px;
}
.roundedTable tr td {
  border: 1px solid #333333;
  border-right: none;
  border-bottom: none;
  padding: 4px;
}
.roundedTable tr td:first-child {
  border-left: none;
}

To apply this style simply change your

<table>

tag to the following:

<table class="roundedTable">

and be sure to include the above CSS styles in your HTML.

Hope this helps.

Why is processing a sorted array faster than processing an unsorted array?

It's about branch prediction. What is it?

A branch predictor is one of the ancient performance improving techniques which still finds relevance into modern architectures. While the simple prediction techniques provide fast lookup and power efficiency they suffer from a high misprediction rate.
On the other hand, complex branch predictions –either neural based or variants of two-level branch prediction –provide better prediction accuracy, but they consume more power and complexity increases exponentially.
In addition to this, in complex prediction techniques the time taken to predict the branches is itself very high –ranging from 2 to 5 cycles –which is comparable to the execution time of actual branches.
Branch prediction is essentially an optimization (minimization) problem where the emphasis is on to achieve lowest possible miss rate, low power consumption, and low complexity with minimum resources.

There really are three different kinds of branches:

Forward conditional branches - based on a run-time condition, the PC (program counter) is changed to point to an address forward in the instruction stream.

Backward conditional branches - the PC is changed to point backward in the instruction stream. The branch is based on some condition, such as branching backwards to the beginning of a program loop when a test at the end of the loop states the loop should be executed again.

Unconditional branches - this includes jumps, procedure calls and returns that have no specific condition. For example, an unconditional jump instruction might be coded in assembly language as simply "jmp", and the instruction stream must immediately be directed to the target location pointed to by the jump instruction, whereas a conditional jump that might be coded as "jmpne" would redirect the instruction stream only if the result of a comparison of two values in a previous "compare" instructions shows the values to not be equal. (The segmented addressing scheme used by the x86 architecture adds extra complexity, since jumps can be either "near" (within a segment) or "far" (outside the segment). Each type has different effects on branch prediction algorithms.)

Static/dynamic Branch Prediction: Static branch prediction is used by the microprocessor the first time a conditional branch is encountered, and dynamic branch prediction is used for succeeding executions of the conditional branch code.

What is the meaning of single and double underscore before an object name?

Here is a simple illustrative example on how double underscore properties can affect an inherited class. So with the following setup:

class parent(object):
    __default = "parent"
    def __init__(self, name=None):
        self.default = name or self.__default

    @property
    def default(self):
        return self.__default

    @default.setter
    def default(self, value):
        self.__default = value


class child(parent):
    __default = "child"

if you then create a child instance in the python REPL, you will see the below

child_a = child()
child_a.default            # 'parent'
child_a._child__default    # 'child'
child_a._parent__default   # 'parent'

child_b = child("orphan")
## this will show 
child_b.default            # 'orphan'
child_a._child__default    # 'child'
child_a._parent__default   # 'orphan'

This may be obvious to some, but it caught me off guard in a much more complex environment

Proper way to get page content

How to add Button over image using CSS?

You need to give relative or absolute or fixed positioning to your container (#shop) and set its zIndex to say 100.

You also need to give say relative positioning to your elements with the class content and lower zIndex say 97.

Do the above-mentioned with your images too and set their zIndex to 91.

And then position your button higher by setting its position to absolute and zIndex to 95

finding first day of the month in python

Yes, first set a datetime to the start of the current month.

Second test if current date day > 25 and get a true/false on that. If True then add add one month to the start of month datetime object. If false then use the datetime object with the value set to the beginning of the month.

import datetime 
from dateutil.relativedelta import relativedelta

todayDate = datetime.date.today()
resultDate = todayDate.replace(day=1)

if ((todayDate - resultDate).days > 25):
    resultDate = resultDate + relativedelta(months=1)

print resultDate

How to use jQuery Plugin with Angular 4?

You should not use jQuery in Angular. While it is possible (see other answers for this question), it is discouraged. Why?

Angular holds an own representation of the DOM in its memory and doesn't use query-selectors (functions like document.getElementById(id)) like jQuery. Instead all the DOM-manipulation is done by Renderer2 (and Angular-directives like *ngFor and *ngIf accessing that Renderer2 in the background/framework-code). If you manipulate DOM with jQuery yourself you will sooner or later...

Run into synchronization problems and have things wrongly appearing or not disappearing at the right time from your screen
Have performance issues in more complex components, as Angular's internal DOM-representation is bound to zone.js and its change detection-mechanism - so updating the DOM manually will always block the thread your app is running on.
Have other confusing errors you don't know the origin of.
Not being able to test the application correctly (Jasmine requires you to know when elements have been rendered)
Not being able to use Angular Universal or WebWorkers

If you really want to include jQuery (for duck-taping some prototype that you will 100% definitively throw away), I recommend to at least include it in your package.json with npm install --save jquery instead of getting it from google's CDN.

TLDR: For learning how to manipulate the DOM in the Angular way please go through the official tour-of heroes tutorial first: https://angular.io/tutorial/toh-pt2 If you need to access elements higher up in the DOM hierarchy (parent or document body) or for some other reason directives like *ngIf, *ngFor, custom directives, pipes and other angular utilities like [style.background], [class.myOwnCustomClass] don't satisfy your needs, use Renderer2: https://www.concretepage.com/angular-2/angular-4-renderer2-example

How to get year/month/day from a date object?

I am using this which works if you pass it a date obj or js timestamp:

getHumanReadableDate: function(date) {
    if (date instanceof Date) {
         return date.getDate() + "/" + (date.getMonth() + 1) + "/" + date.getFullYear();
    } else if (isFinite(date)) {//timestamp
        var d = new Date();
        d.setTime(date);
        return this.getHumanReadableDate(d);
    }
}

Dealing with HTTP content in HTTPS pages

I don't know if this would fit what you are doing, but as a quick fix I would "wrap" the http content into an https script. For instance, on your page that is served through https i would introduce an iframe that would replace your rss feed and in the src attr of the iframe put a url of a script on your server that captures the feed and outputs the html. the script is reading the feed through http and outputs it through https (thus "wrapping")

Just a thought

How to handle floats and decimal separators with html5 input type number

I have not found a perfect solution but the best I could do was to use type="tel" and disable html5 validation (formnovalidate):

<input name="txtTest" type="tel" value="1,200.00" formnovalidate="formnovalidate" />

If the user puts in a comma it will output with the comma in every modern browser i tried (latest FF, IE, edge, opera, chrome, safari desktop, android chrome).

The main problem is:

Mobile users will see their phone keyboard which may be different than the number keyboard.
Even worse the phone keyboard may not even have a key for a comma.

For my use case I only had to:

Display the initial value with a comma (firefox strips it out for type=number)
Not fail html5 validation (if there is a comma)
Have the field read exactly as input (with a possible comma)

If you have a similar requirement this should work for you.

Note: I did not like the support of the pattern attribute. The formnovalidate seems to work much better.

how to create 100% vertical line in css

100% height refers to the height of the parent container. In order for your div to go full height of the body you have to set this:

html, body {height: 100%; min-height: 100%}

Hope it helps.

How to send post request with x-www-form-urlencoded body

How to write a Python module/package?

Python 3 - UPDATED 18th November 2015

Found the accepted answer useful, yet wished to expand on several points for the benefit of others based on my own experiences.

Module: A module is a file containing Python definitions and statements. The file name is the module name with the suffix .py appended.

Module Example: Assume we have a single python script in the current directory, here I am calling it mymodule.py

The file mymodule.py contains the following code:

def myfunc():
    print("Hello!")

If we run the python3 interpreter from the current directory, we can import and run the function myfunc in the following different ways (you would typically just choose one of the following):

>>> import mymodule
>>> mymodule.myfunc()
Hello!
>>> from mymodule import myfunc
>>> myfunc()
Hello!
>>> from mymodule import *
>>> myfunc()
Hello!

Ok, so that was easy enough.

Now assume you have the need to put this module into its own dedicated folder to provide a module namespace, instead of just running it ad-hoc from the current working directory. This is where it is worth explaining the concept of a package.

Package: Packages are a way of structuring Python’s module namespace by using “dotted module names”. For example, the module name A.B designates a submodule named B in a package named A. Just like the use of modules saves the authors of different modules from having to worry about each other’s global variable names, the use of dotted module names saves the authors of multi-module packages like NumPy or the Python Imaging Library from having to worry about each other’s module names.

Package Example: Let's now assume we have the following folder and files. Here, mymodule.py is identical to before, and __init__.py is an empty file:

.
+-- mypackage
    +-- __init__.py
    +-- mymodule.py

The __init__.py files are required to make Python treat the directories as containing packages. For further information, please see the Modules documentation link provided later on.

Our current working directory is one level above the ordinary folder called mypackage

$ ls
mypackage

If we run the python3 interpreter now, we can import and run the module mymodule.py containing the required function myfunc in the following different ways (you would typically just choose one of the following):

>>> import mypackage
>>> from mypackage import mymodule
>>> mymodule.myfunc()
Hello!
>>> import mypackage.mymodule
>>> mypackage.mymodule.myfunc()
Hello!
>>> from mypackage import mymodule
>>> mymodule.myfunc()
Hello!
>>> from mypackage.mymodule import myfunc
>>> myfunc()
Hello!
>>> from mypackage.mymodule import *
>>> myfunc()
Hello!

Assuming Python 3, there is excellent documentation at: Modules

In terms of naming conventions for packages and modules, the general guidelines are given in PEP-0008 - please see Package and Module Names

Modules should have short, all-lowercase names. Underscores can be used in the module name if it improves readability. Python packages should also have short, all-lowercase names, although the use of underscores is discouraged.

java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: bitmap size exceeds VM budget - Android

I had the same problem just with switching the background images with reasonable sizes. I got better results with setting the ImageView to null before putting in a new picture.

ImageView ivBg = (ImageView) findViewById(R.id.main_backgroundImage);
ivBg.setImageDrawable(null);
ivBg.setImageDrawable(getResources().getDrawable(R.drawable.new_picture));

How to make the division of 2 ints produce a float instead of another int?

Cast one of the integers/both of the integer to float to force the operation to be done with floating point Math. Otherwise integer Math is always preferred. So:

1. v = (float)s / t;
2. v = (float)s / (float)t;

Creating watermark using html and css

Other solutions are great but they didn't take care of the fact that watermark shouldn't get selected on selection from the mouse. This fiddle takes care or that: https://jsfiddle.net/MiKr13/d1r4o0jg/9/

This will be better option for pdf or static html.

CSS:

#watermark {
  opacity: 0.2;
  font-size: 52px;
  color: 'black';
  background: '#ccc';
  position: absolute;
  cursor: default;
  user-select: none;
  -webkit-user-select: none;
  -khtml-user-select: none;
  -moz-user-select: none;
  -ms-user-select: none;

How can I display an RTSP video stream in a web page?

Roughly you can have 3 choices to display RTSP video stream in a web page:

Realplayer
Quicktime player
VLC player

You can find the code to embed the activeX via google search.

As far as I know, there are some limitations for each player.

Realplayer does not support H.264 video natively, you must install a quicktime plugin for Realplayer to achieve H.264 decoding.
Quicktime player does not support RTP/AVP/TCP transport, and it's RTP/AVP (UDP) transport does not include NAT hole punching. Thus the only feasible transport is HTTP tunneling in WAN deployment.
VLC neither supports NAT hole punching for RTP/AVP transport, but RTP/AVP/TCP transport is available.

Dealing with float precision in Javascript

From this post: How to deal with floating point number precision in JavaScript?

How does one parse XML files?

I'm not sure whether "best practice for parsing XML" exists. There are numerous technologies suited for different situations. Which way to use depends on the concrete scenario.

You can go with LINQ to XML, XmlReader, XPathNavigator or even regular expressions. If you elaborate your needs, I can try to give some suggestions.

Importing Excel files into R, xlsx or xls

You have checked that R is actually able to find the file, e.g. file.exists("C:/AB_DNA_Tag_Numbers.xlsx") ? – Ben Bolker Aug 14 '11 at 23:05

Above comment should've solved your problem:

require("xlsx")
read.xlsx("filepath/filename.xlsx",1)

should work fine after that.

Warning: require_once(): http:// wrapper is disabled in the server configuration by allow_url_include=0

require_once('../web/a.php');

If this is not working for anyone, following is the good Idea to include file anywhere in the project.

require_once dirname(__FILE__)."/../../includes/enter.php";

This code will get the file from 2 directory outside of the current directory.

Difference between links and depends_on in docker_compose.yml

This answer is for docker-compose version 2 and it also works on version 3

You can still access the data when you use depends_on.

If you look at docker docs Docker Compose and Django, you still can access the database like this:

version: '2'
services:
  db:
    image: postgres
  web:
    build: .
    command: python manage.py runserver 0.0.0.0:8000
    volumes:
      - .:/code
    ports:
      - "8000:8000"
    depends_on:
      - db

What is the difference between links and depends_on?

links:

When you create a container for a database, for example:

docker run -d --name=test-mysql --env="MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD=mypassword" -P mysql

docker inspect d54cf8a0fb98 |grep HostPort

And you may find

"HostPort": "32777"

This means you can connect the database from your localhost port 32777 (3306 in container) but this port will change every time you restart or remove the container. So you can use links to make sure you will always connect to the database and don't have to know which port it is.

web:
  links:
   - db

depends_on:

I found a nice blog from Giorgio Ferraris Docker-compose.yml: from V1 to V2

When docker-compose executes V2 files, it will automatically build a network between all of the containers defined in the file, and every container will be immediately able to refer to the others just using the names defined in the docker-compose.yml file.

And

So we don’t need links anymore; links were used to start a network communication between our db container and our web-server container, but this is already done by docker-compose

Update

depends_on

Express dependency between services, which has two effects:

docker-compose up will start services in dependency order. In the following example, db and redis will be started before web.
docker-compose up SERVICE will automatically include SERVICE’s dependencies. In the following example, docker-compose up web will also create and start db and redis.

Simple example:

version: '2'
services:
  web:
    build: .
    depends_on:
      - db
      - redis
  redis:
    image: redis
  db:
    image: postgres

Note: depends_on will not wait for db and redis to be “ready” before starting web - only until they have been started. If you need to wait for a service to be ready, see Controlling startup order for more on this problem and strategies for solving it.

Git push won't do anything (everything up-to-date)

How to implement WiX installer upgrade?

In the newest versions (from the 3.5.1315.0 beta), you can use the MajorUpgrade element instead of using your own.

For example, we use this code to do automatic upgrades. It prevents downgrades, giving a localised error message, and also prevents upgrading an already existing identical version (i.e. only lower versions are upgraded):

<MajorUpgrade
    AllowDowngrades="no" DowngradeErrorMessage="!(loc.NewerVersionInstalled)"
    AllowSameVersionUpgrades="no"
    />

Databound drop down list - initial value

Add an item and set its "Selected" property to true, you will probably want to set "appenddatabounditems" property to true also so your initial value isn't deleted when databound.

If you are talking about setting an initial value that is in your databound items then hook into your ondatabound event and set which index you want to selected=true you will want to wrap it in "if not page.isPostBack then ...." though

Protected Sub DepartmentDropDownList_DataBound(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As    System.EventArgs) Handles DepartmentDropDownList.DataBound
    If Not Page.IsPostBack Then
        DepartmentDropDownList.SelectedValue = "somevalue"
    End If
End Sub

How to use if statements in underscore.js templates?

This should do the trick:

Remember that in underscore.js templates if and for are just standard javascript syntax wrapped in <% %> tags.

Invalid postback or callback argument. Event validation is enabled using '<pages enableEventValidation="true"/>'

What worked for me is moving the following code from page_load to page_prerender:

lstMain.DataBind();
Image img = (Image)lstMain.Items[0].FindControl("imgMain");

// Define the name and type of the client scripts on the page.
String csname1 = "PopupScript";
Type cstype = this.GetType();

// Get a ClientScriptManager reference from the Page class.
ClientScriptManager cs = Page.ClientScript;

// Check to see if the startup script is already registered.
if (!cs.IsStartupScriptRegistered(cstype, csname1))
{
    cs.RegisterStartupScript(cstype, csname1, "<script language=javascript> p=\"" + img.ClientID + "\"</script>");
}

Adding/removing items from a JavaScript object with jQuery

If you are using jQuery you can use the extend function to add new items.

var olddata = {"fruit":{"apples":10,"pears":21}};

var newdata = {};
newdata['vegetables'] = {"carrots": 2, "potatoes" : 5};

$.extend(true, olddata, newdata);

This will generate:

{"fruit":{"apples":10,"pears":21}, "vegetables":{"carrots":2,"potatoes":5}};

Random state (Pseudo-random number) in Scikit learn

sklearn.model_selection.train_test_split(*arrays, **options)[source]

Split arrays or matrices into random train and test subsets

Parameters: ... 
    random_state : int, RandomState instance or None, optional (default=None)

If int, random_state is the seed used by the random number generator; If RandomState instance, random_state is the random number generator; If None, the random number generator is the RandomState instance used by np.random. source: http://scikit-learn.org/stable/modules/generated/sklearn.model_selection.train_test_split.html

'''Regarding the random state, it is used in many randomized algorithms in sklearn to determine the random seed passed to the pseudo-random number generator. Therefore, it does not govern any aspect of the algorithm's behavior. As a consequence, random state values which performed well in the validation set do not correspond to those which would perform well in a new, unseen test set. Indeed, depending on the algorithm, you might see completely different results by just changing the ordering of training samples.''' source: https://stats.stackexchange.com/questions/263999/is-random-state-a-parameter-to-tune

Change grid interval and specify tick labels in Matplotlib

There are several problems in your code.

First the big ones:

You are creating a new figure and a new axes in every iteration of your loop ? put fig = plt.figure and ax = fig.add_subplot(1,1,1) outside of the loop.
Don't use the Locators. Call the functions ax.set_xticks() and ax.grid() with the correct keywords.
With plt.axes() you are creating a new axes again. Use ax.set_aspect('equal').

The minor things: You should not mix the MATLAB-like syntax like plt.axis() with the objective syntax. Use ax.set_xlim(a,b) and ax.set_ylim(a,b)

This should be a working minimal example:

import numpy as np
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

fig = plt.figure()
ax = fig.add_subplot(1, 1, 1)

# Major ticks every 20, minor ticks every 5
major_ticks = np.arange(0, 101, 20)
minor_ticks = np.arange(0, 101, 5)

ax.set_xticks(major_ticks)
ax.set_xticks(minor_ticks, minor=True)
ax.set_yticks(major_ticks)
ax.set_yticks(minor_ticks, minor=True)

# And a corresponding grid
ax.grid(which='both')

# Or if you want different settings for the grids:
ax.grid(which='minor', alpha=0.2)
ax.grid(which='major', alpha=0.5)

plt.show()

Output is this:

Best way to format multiple 'or' conditions in an if statement (Java)

No you cannot do that in Java. you can however write a method as follows:

boolean isContains(int i, int ... numbers) {
    // code to check if i is one of the numbers
    for (int n : numbers) {
        if (i == n) return true;
    }
    return false;
}

How do I put text on ProgressBar?

You will have to override the OnPaint method, call the base implementation and the paint your own text.

You will need to create your own CustomProgressBar and then override OnPaint to draw what ever text you want.

Custom Progress Bar Class

namespace ProgressBarSample
{

public enum ProgressBarDisplayText
{
    Percentage,
    CustomText
}

class CustomProgressBar: ProgressBar
{
    //Property to set to decide whether to print a % or Text
    public ProgressBarDisplayText DisplayStyle { get; set; }

    //Property to hold the custom text
    public String CustomText { get; set; }

    public CustomProgressBar()
    {
        // Modify the ControlStyles flags
        //http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.windows.forms.controlstyles.aspx
        SetStyle(ControlStyles.UserPaint | ControlStyles.AllPaintingInWmPaint, true);
    }

    protected override void OnPaint(PaintEventArgs e)
    {
        Rectangle rect = ClientRectangle;
        Graphics g = e.Graphics;

        ProgressBarRenderer.DrawHorizontalBar(g, rect);
        rect.Inflate(-3, -3);
        if (Value > 0)
        {
            // As we doing this ourselves we need to draw the chunks on the progress bar
            Rectangle clip = new Rectangle(rect.X, rect.Y, (int)Math.Round(((float)Value / Maximum) * rect.Width), rect.Height);
            ProgressBarRenderer.DrawHorizontalChunks(g, clip);
        }

        // Set the Display text (Either a % amount or our custom text
        string text = DisplayStyle == ProgressBarDisplayText.Percentage ? Value.ToString() + '%' : CustomText;


        using (Font f = new Font(FontFamily.GenericSerif, 10))
        {

            SizeF len = g.MeasureString(text, f);
            // Calculate the location of the text (the middle of progress bar)
            // Point location = new Point(Convert.ToInt32((rect.Width / 2) - (len.Width / 2)), Convert.ToInt32((rect.Height / 2) - (len.Height / 2)));
            Point location = new Point(Convert.ToInt32((Width / 2) - len.Width / 2), Convert.ToInt32((Height / 2) - len.Height / 2)); 
            // The commented-out code will centre the text into the highlighted area only. This will centre the text regardless of the highlighted area.
            // Draw the custom text
            g.DrawString(text, f, Brushes.Red, location);
        }
    }
}
}

Sample WinForms Application

using System;
using System.Linq;
using System.Windows.Forms;
using System.Collections.Generic;

namespace ProgressBarSample
{
    public partial class Form1 : Form
    {
        public Form1()
        {
            InitializeComponent();
            // Set our custom Style (% or text)
            customProgressBar1.DisplayStyle = ProgressBarDisplayText.CustomText;
            customProgressBar1.CustomText = "Initialising";
        }

        private void btnReset_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            customProgressBar1.Value = 0;
            btnStart.Enabled = true;
        }

        private void btnStart_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            btnReset.Enabled = false;
            btnStart.Enabled = false;

            for (int i = 0; i < 101; i++)
            {

                customProgressBar1.Value = i;
                // Demo purposes only
                System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(100);

                // Set the custom text at different intervals for demo purposes
                if (i > 30 && i < 50)
                {
                    customProgressBar1.CustomText = "Registering Account";
                }

                if (i > 80)
                {
                    customProgressBar1.CustomText = "Processing almost complete!";
                }

                if (i >= 99)
                {
                    customProgressBar1.CustomText = "Complete";
                }
            }

How to list all dates between two dates

I made a calendar using:

http://social.technet.microsoft.com/wiki/contents/articles/22776.t-sql-calendar-table.aspx

then a Store procedure passing two dates and thats all:

USE DB_NAME;
GO

CREATE PROCEDURE [dbo].[USP_LISTAR_RANGO_FECHAS]
@FEC_INICIO date,
@FEC_FIN date
AS
Select Date from CALENDARIO where Date BETWEEN @FEC_INICIO AND @FEC_FIN;

jQuery datepicker, onSelect won't work

The function datepicker is case sensitive and all lowercase. The following however works fine for me:

$(document).ready(function() {
  $('.date-pick').datepicker( {
    onSelect: function(date) {
        alert(date);
    },
    selectWeek: true,
    inline: true,
    startDate: '01/01/2000',
    firstDay: 1
  });
});

How can I show three columns per row?

Even though the above answer appears to be correct, I wanted to add a (hopefully) more readable example that also stays in 3 columns form at different widths:

_x000D_

.flex-row-container {_x000D_
    background: #aaa;_x000D_
    display: flex;_x000D_
    flex-wrap: wrap;_x000D_
    align-items: center;_x000D_
    justify-content: center;_x000D_
}_x000D_
.flex-row-container > .flex-row-item {_x000D_
    flex: 1 1 30%; /*grow | shrink | basis */_x000D_
    height: 100px;_x000D_
}_x000D_
_x000D_
.flex-row-item {_x000D_
  background-color: #fff4e6;_x000D_
  border: 1px solid #f76707;_x000D_
}

_x000D_

<div class="flex-row-container">_x000D_
  <div class="flex-row-item">1</div>_x000D_
  <div class="flex-row-item">2</div>_x000D_
  <div class="flex-row-item">3</div>_x000D_
  <div class="flex-row-item">4</div>_x000D_
  <div class="flex-row-item">5</div>_x000D_
  <div class="flex-row-item">6</div>_x000D_
</div>

_x000D_

Hope this helps someone else.

How can I quantify difference between two images?

I think you could simply compute the euclidean distance (i.e. sqrt(sum of squares of differences, pixel by pixel)) between the luminance of the two images, and consider them equal if this falls under some empirical threshold. And you would better do it wrapping a C function.

Can an ASP.NET MVC controller return an Image?

This might be helpful if you'd like to modify the image before returning it:

public ActionResult GetModifiedImage()
{
    Image image = Image.FromFile(Path.Combine(Server.MapPath("/Content/images"), "image.png"));

    using (Graphics g = Graphics.FromImage(image))
    {
        // do something with the Graphics (eg. write "Hello World!")
        string text = "Hello World!";

        // Create font and brush.
        Font drawFont = new Font("Arial", 10);
        SolidBrush drawBrush = new SolidBrush(Color.Black);

        // Create point for upper-left corner of drawing.
        PointF stringPoint = new PointF(0, 0);

        g.DrawString(text, drawFont, drawBrush, stringPoint);
    }

    MemoryStream ms = new MemoryStream();

    image.Save(ms, System.Drawing.Imaging.ImageFormat.Png);

    return File(ms.ToArray(), "image/png");
}

Why is String immutable in Java?

From the Security point of view we can use this practical example:

DBCursor makeConnection(String IP,String PORT,String USER,String PASS,String TABLE) {

    // if strings were mutable IP,PORT,USER,PASS can be changed by validate function
    Boolean validated = validate(IP,PORT,USER,PASS);

    // here we are not sure if IP, PORT, USER, PASS changed or not ??
    if (validated) {
         DBConnection conn = doConnection(IP,PORT,USER,PASS);
    }

    // rest of the code goes here ....
}

endsWith in JavaScript

Its been many years for this question. Let me add an important update for the users who wants to use the most voted chakrit's answer.

'endsWith' functions is already added to JavaScript as part of ECMAScript 6 (experimental technology)

Refer it here: https://developer.mozilla.org/en/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/String/endsWith

Hence it is highly recommended to add check for the existence of native implementation as mentioned in the answer.

How to maintain state after a page refresh in React.js?

I consider state to be for view only information and data that should persist beyond the view state is better stored as props. URL params are useful when you want to be able to link to a page or share the URL deep in to the app but otherwise clutter the address bar.

Log4j, configuring a Web App to use a relative path

If you use Spring you can:

1) create a log4j configuration file, e.g. "/WEB-INF/classes/log4j-myapp.properties" DO NOT name it "log4j.properties"

Example:

log4j.rootLogger=ERROR, stdout, rollingFile

log4j.appender.stdout=org.apache.log4j.ConsoleAppender
log4j.appender.stdout.layout=org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout
log4j.appender.stdout.layout.ConversionPattern=%d %p [%c] - <%m>%n

log4j.appender.rollingFile=org.apache.log4j.RollingFileAppender
log4j.appender.rollingFile.File=${myWebapp-instance-root}/WEB-INF/logs/application.log
log4j.appender.rollingFile.MaxFileSize=512KB
log4j.appender.rollingFile.MaxBackupIndex=10
log4j.appender.rollingFile.layout=org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout
log4j.appender.rollingFile.layout.ConversionPattern=%d %p [%c] - %m%n
log4j.appender.rollingFile.Encoding=UTF-8

We'll define "myWebapp-instance-root" later on point (3)

2) Specify config location in web.xml:

<context-param>
  <param-name>log4jConfigLocation</param-name>
  <param-value>/WEB-INF/classes/log4j-myapp.properties</param-value>
</context-param>

3) Specify a unique variable name for your webapp's root, e.g. "myWebapp-instance-root"

<context-param>
  <param-name>webAppRootKey</param-name>
  <param-value>myWebapp-instance-root</param-value>
</context-param>

4) Add a Log4jConfigListener:

<listener>
  <listener-class>org.springframework.web.util.Log4jConfigListener</listener-class>
</listener>

If you choose a different name, remember to change it in log4j-myapp.properties, too.

See my article (Italian only... but it should be understandable): http://www.megadix.it/content/configurare-path-relativi-log4j-utilizzando-spring
