The module was expected to contain an assembly manifest

Check if the manifest is a valid xml file. I had the same problem by doing a DOS copy command at the end of the build, and it turns out that for some reason I can not understand "copy" was adding a strange character (->) at the end of the manifest files. The problem was solved by adding "/b" switch to force binary copy.

Selecting rows where remainder (modulo) is 1 after division by 2?

select * from table where value % 2 = 1 works fine in mysql.

java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: org.apache.commons.codec.binary.Base64.encodeBase64String() in Java EE application

That method was introduced in Commons Codec 1.4. This exception indicates that you've an older version of Commons Codec somewhere else in the webapp's runtime classpath which got precedence in classloading. Check all paths covered by the webapp's runtime classpath. This includes among others the Webapp/WEB-INF/lib, YourAppServer/lib, JRE/lib and JRE/lib/ext. Finally remove or upgrade the offending older version.


Update: as per the comments, you can't seem to locate it. I can only suggest to outcomment the code using that newer method and then put the following line in place:

System.out.println(Base64.class.getProtectionDomain().getCodeSource().getLocation());

That should print the absolute path to the JAR file where it was been loaded from during runtime.


Update 2: this did seem to point to the right file. Sorry, I can't explain your problem anymore right now. All I can suggest is to use a different Base64 method like encodeBase64(byte[]) and then just construct a new String(bytes) yourself. Or you could drop that library and use a different Base64 encoder, for example this one.

MySQL skip first 10 results

There is an OFFSET as well that should do the trick:

Swift - encode URL

Swift 4 & 5 (Thanks @sumizome for suggestion. Thanks @FD_ and @derickito for testing)

var allowedQueryParamAndKey = NSCharacterSet.urlQueryAllowed
allowedQueryParamAndKey.remove(charactersIn: ";/?:@&=+$, ")
paramOrKey.addingPercentEncoding(withAllowedCharacters: allowedQueryParamAndKey)

Swift 3

let allowedQueryParamAndKey =  NSCharacterSet.urlQueryAllowed.remove(charactersIn: ";/?:@&=+$, ")
paramOrKey.addingPercentEncoding(withAllowedCharacters: allowedQueryParamAndKey)

Swift 2.2 (Borrowing from Zaph's and correcting for url query key and parameter values)

var allowedQueryParamAndKey =  NSCharacterSet(charactersInString: ";/?:@&=+$, ").invertedSet
paramOrKey.stringByAddingPercentEncodingWithAllowedCharacters(allowedQueryParamAndKey)

Example:

let paramOrKey = "https://some.website.com/path/to/page.srf?a=1&b=2#top"
paramOrKey.addingPercentEncoding(withAllowedCharacters: allowedQueryParamAndKey)
// produces:
"https%3A%2F%2Fsome.website.com%2Fpath%2Fto%2Fpage.srf%3Fa%3D1%26b%3D2%23top"

This is a shorter version of Bryan Chen's answer. I'd guess that urlQueryAllowed is allowing the control characters through which is fine unless they form part of the key or value in your query string at which point they need to be escaped.

Get cart item name, quantity all details woocommerce

Since WooCommerce 2.1 (2014) you should use the WC function instead of the global. You can also call more appropriate functions:

foreach ( WC()->cart->get_cart() as $cart_item ) {
   $item_name = $cart_item['data']->get_title();
   $quantity = $cart_item['quantity'];
   $price = $cart_item['data']->get_price();
   ...

This will not only be clean code, but it will be better than accessing the post_meta directly because it will apply filters if necessary.

Java: How To Call Non Static Method From Main Method?

You can think of a static member function as one that exists without the need for an object to exist. For example, the Integer.parseInt() method from the Integer class is static. When you need to use it, you don't need to create a new Integer object, you simply call it. The same thing for main(). If you need to call a non-static member from it, simply put your main code in a class and then from main create a new object of your newly created class.

Dynamically changing font size of UILabel

Swift 2.0 Version:

private func adapteSizeLabel(label: UILabel, sizeMax: CGFloat) {
     label.numberOfLines = 0
     label.lineBreakMode = NSLineBreakMode.ByWordWrapping
     let maximumLabelSize = CGSizeMake(label.frame.size.width, sizeMax);
     let expectSize = label.sizeThatFits(maximumLabelSize)
     label.frame = CGRectMake(label.frame.origin.x, label.frame.origin.y, expectSize.width, expectSize.height)
}

How to display request headers with command line curl

A command like the one below will show three sections: request headers, response headers and data (separated by CRLF). It avoids technical information and syntactical noise added by curl.

curl -vs www.stackoverflow.com 2>&1 | sed '/^* /d; /bytes data]$/d; s/> //; s/< //'

The command will produce the following output:

Python String and Integer concatenation

I did something else. I wanted to replace a word, in lists off lists, that contained phrases. I wanted to replace that sttring / word with a new word that will be a join between string and number, and that number / digit will indicate the position of the phrase / sublist / lists of lists.

That is, I replaced a string with a string and an incremental number that follow it.

    myoldlist_1=[[' myoldword'],[''],['tttt myoldword'],['jjjj ddmyoldwordd']]
        No_ofposition=[]
        mynewlist_2=[]
        for i in xrange(0,4,1):
            mynewlist_2.append([x.replace('myoldword', "%s" % i+"_mynewword") for x in myoldlist_1[i]])
            if len(mynewlist_2[i])>0:
                No_ofposition.append(i)
mynewlist_2
No_ofposition

Page scroll up or down in Selenium WebDriver (Selenium 2) using java

Scenario/Test steps:
1. Open a browser and navigate to TestURL
2. Scroll down some pixel and scroll up

For Scroll down:

WebDriver driver = new FirefoxDriver();
JavascriptExecutor jse = (JavascriptExecutor)driver;
jse.executeScript("window.scrollBy(0,250)");

OR, you can do as follows:

jse.executeScript("scroll(0, 250);");

For Scroll up:

jse.executeScript("window.scrollBy(0,-250)");
OR,
jse.executeScript("scroll(0, -250);");

Scroll to the bottom of the page:

Scenario/Test steps:
1. Open a browser and navigate to TestURL
2. Scroll to the bottom of the page

Way 1: By using JavaScriptExecutor

jse.executeScript("window.scrollTo(0, document.body.scrollHeight)");

Way 2: By pressing ctrl+end

driver.findElement(By.cssSelector("body")).sendKeys(Keys.CONTROL, Keys.END);

Way 3: By using Java Robot class

Robot robot = new Robot();
robot.keyPress(KeyEvent.VK_CONTROL);
robot.keyPress(KeyEvent.VK_END);
robot.keyRelease(KeyEvent.VK_END);
robot.keyRelease(KeyEvent.VK_CONTROL);

How to detect scroll position of page using jQuery

You are looking for the window.scrollTop() function.

$(window).scroll(function() {
    var height = $(window).scrollTop();

    if(height  > some_number) {
        // do something
    }
});

AngularJS $location not changing the path

If any of you is using the Angular-ui / ui-router, use:$state.go('yourstate') instead of $location. It did the trick for me.

How do I check when a UITextField changes?

The way I've handled it so far: in UITextFieldDelegate

func textField(textField: UITextField, shouldChangeCharactersInRange range: NSRange, replacementString string: String) -> Bool
{
    // text hasn't changed yet, you have to compute the text AFTER the edit yourself
    let updatedString = (textField.text as NSString?)?.stringByReplacingCharactersInRange(range, withString: string)

    // do whatever you need with this updated string (your code)


    // always return true so that changes propagate
    return true
}

Swift4 version

func textField(_ textField: UITextField, shouldChangeCharactersIn range: NSRange, replacementString string: String) -> Bool {
    let updatedString = (textField.text as NSString?)?.replacingCharacters(in: range, with: string)
    return true
}

How to count items in JSON data

import json

json_data = json.dumps({
  "result":[
    {
      "run":[
        {
          "action":"stop"
        },
        {
          "action":"start"
        },
        {
          "action":"start"
        }
      ],
      "find": "true"
    }
  ]
})

item_dict = json.loads(json_data)
print len(item_dict['result'][0]['run'])

Convert it in dict.

How can I refresh c# dataGridView after update ?

Rebind your DatagridView to the source.

DataGridView dg1 = new DataGridView();

How to list imported modules?

I like using a list comprehension in this case:

>>> [w for w in dir() if w == 'datetime' or w == 'sqlite3']
['datetime', 'sqlite3']

# To count modules of interest...
>>> count = [w for w in dir() if w == 'datetime' or w == 'sqlite3']
>>> len(count)
2

# To count all installed modules...
>>> count = dir()
>>> len(count)

Android Gradle Apache HttpClient does not exist?

In my case, I updated one of my libraries in my android project.

I'm using Reservoir as my cache storage solution: https://github.com/anupcowkur/Reservoir

I went from:

compile 'com.anupcowkur:reservoir:2.1'

To:

compile 'com.anupcowkur:reservoir:3.1.0'

The library author must have removed the commons-io library from the repo so my app no longer worked.

I had to manually include the commons-io by adding this onto gradle:

compile 'commons-io:commons-io:2.5'

https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/commons-io/commons-io/2.5

How do I remove blank pages coming between two chapters in Appendix?

I tried Noah's suggestion which leads to the best solution up to now.

Just insert \let\cleardoublepage\clearpage before all the parts with the blank pages Especially when you use \documentclass[12pt,a4paper]{book}

frederic snyers's advice \documentclass[oneside]{book} is also very good and solves the problem, but if we just want to use the book.cls or article.cls, the one would make a big difference presenting your particles.

Hence, Big support to \let\cleardoublepage\clearpage for the people who will ask the same question in the future.

In Python, how do I determine if an object is iterable?

It's always eluded me as to why python has callable(obj) -> bool but not iterable(obj) -> bool...
surely it's easier to do hasattr(obj,'__call__') even if it is slower.

Since just about every other answer recommends using try/except TypeError, where testing for exceptions is generally considered bad practice among any language, here's an implementation of iterable(obj) -> bool I've grown more fond of and use often:

For python 2's sake, I'll use a lambda just for that extra performance boost...
(in python 3 it doesn't matter what you use for defining the function, def has roughly the same speed as lambda)

iterable = lambda obj: hasattr(obj,'__iter__') or hasattr(obj,'__getitem__')

Note that this function executes faster for objects with __iter__ since it doesn't test for __getitem__.

Most iterable objects should rely on __iter__ where special-case objects fall back to __getitem__, though either is required for an object to be iterable.
(and since this is standard, it affects C objects as well)

Configuring so that pip install can work from github

Clone target repository same way like you cloning any other project:

git clone [email protected]:myuser/foo.git

Then install it in develop mode:

cd foo
pip install -e .

You can change anything you wan't and every code using foo package will use modified code.

There 2 benefits ot this solution:

  1. You can install package in your home projects directory.
  2. Package includes .git dir, so it's regular Git repository. You can push to your fork right away.

MySQL "between" clause not inclusive?

From the MySQL-manual:

This is equivalent to the expression (min <= expr AND expr <= max)

Python json.loads shows ValueError: Extra data

As you can see in the following example, json.loads (and json.load) does not decode multiple json object.

>>> json.loads('{}')
{}
>>> json.loads('{}{}') # == json.loads(json.dumps({}) + json.dumps({}))
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
  File "C:\Python27\lib\json\__init__.py", line 338, in loads
    return _default_decoder.decode(s)
  File "C:\Python27\lib\json\decoder.py", line 368, in decode
    raise ValueError(errmsg("Extra data", s, end, len(s)))
ValueError: Extra data: line 1 column 3 - line 1 column 5 (char 2 - 4)

If you want to dump multiple dictionaries, wrap them in a list, dump the list (instead of dumping dictionaries multiple times)

>>> dict1 = {}
>>> dict2 = {}
>>> json.dumps([dict1, dict2])
'[{}, {}]'
>>> json.loads(json.dumps([dict1, dict2]))
[{}, {}]

Changing cell color using apache poi

To create your cell styles see: http://poi.apache.org/spreadsheet/quick-guide.html#CustomColors.

Custom colors

HSSF:

HSSFWorkbook wb = new HSSFWorkbook();
HSSFSheet sheet = wb.createSheet();
HSSFRow row = sheet.createRow((short) 0);
HSSFCell cell = row.createCell((short) 0);
cell.setCellValue("Default Palette");

//apply some colors from the standard palette,
// as in the previous examples.
//we'll use red text on a lime background

HSSFCellStyle style = wb.createCellStyle();
style.setFillForegroundColor(HSSFColor.LIME.index);
style.setFillPattern(HSSFCellStyle.SOLID_FOREGROUND);

HSSFFont font = wb.createFont();
font.setColor(HSSFColor.RED.index);
style.setFont(font);

cell.setCellStyle(style);

//save with the default palette
FileOutputStream out = new FileOutputStream("default_palette.xls");
wb.write(out);
out.close();

//now, let's replace RED and LIME in the palette
// with a more attractive combination
// (lovingly borrowed from freebsd.org)

cell.setCellValue("Modified Palette");

//creating a custom palette for the workbook
HSSFPalette palette = wb.getCustomPalette();

//replacing the standard red with freebsd.org red
palette.setColorAtIndex(HSSFColor.RED.index,
        (byte) 153,  //RGB red (0-255)
        (byte) 0,    //RGB green
        (byte) 0     //RGB blue
);
//replacing lime with freebsd.org gold
palette.setColorAtIndex(HSSFColor.LIME.index, (byte) 255, (byte) 204, (byte) 102);

//save with the modified palette
// note that wherever we have previously used RED or LIME, the
// new colors magically appear
out = new FileOutputStream("modified_palette.xls");
wb.write(out);
out.close();

XSSF:

 XSSFWorkbook wb = new XSSFWorkbook();
    XSSFSheet sheet = wb.createSheet();
    XSSFRow row = sheet.createRow(0);
    XSSFCell cell = row.createCell( 0);
    cell.setCellValue("custom XSSF colors");

    XSSFCellStyle style1 = wb.createCellStyle();
    style1.setFillForegroundColor(new XSSFColor(new java.awt.Color(128, 0, 128)));
    style1.setFillPattern(CellStyle.SOLID_FOREGROUND);

How to regex in a MySQL query

In my case (Oracle), it's WHERE REGEXP_LIKE(column, 'regex.*'). See here:

SQL Function

Description


REGEXP_LIKE

This function searches a character column for a pattern. Use this function in the WHERE clause of a query to return rows matching the regular expression you specify.

...

REGEXP_REPLACE

This function searches for a pattern in a character column and replaces each occurrence of that pattern with the pattern you specify.

...

REGEXP_INSTR

This function searches a string for a given occurrence of a regular expression pattern. You specify which occurrence you want to find and the start position to search from. This function returns an integer indicating the position in the string where the match is found.

...

REGEXP_SUBSTR

This function returns the actual substring matching the regular expression pattern you specify.

(Of course, REGEXP_LIKE only matches queries containing the search string, so if you want a complete match, you'll have to use '^$' for a beginning (^) and end ($) match, e.g.: '^regex.*$'.)

Force browser to download image files on click

A more modern approach using Promise and async/await :

toDataURL(url) {
    return fetch(url).then((response) => {
            return response.blob();
        }).then(blob => {
            return URL.createObjectURL(blob);
        });
}

then

async download() {
        const a = document.createElement("a");
        a.href = await toDataURL("https://cdn1.iconfinder.com/data/icons/ninja-things-1/1772/ninja-simple-512.png");
        a.download = "myImage.png";
        document.body.appendChild(a);
        a.click();
        document.body.removeChild(a);
}

How to detect when cancel is clicked on file input?

function file_click() {
    document.body.onfocus = () => {
        setTimeout(_=>{
            let file_input = document.getElementById('file_input');
            if (!file_input.value) alert('please choose file ')
            else alert(file_input.value)
            document.body.onfocus = null
        },100)
    }
}

Using setTimeout to get the certain value of the input.

best way to preserve numpy arrays on disk

I've compared performance (space and time) for a number of ways to store numpy arrays. Few of them support multiple arrays per file, but perhaps it's useful anyway.

benchmark for numpy array storage

Npy and binary files are both really fast and small for dense data. If the data is sparse or very structured, you might want to use npz with compression, which'll save a lot of space but cost some load time.

If portability is an issue, binary is better than npy. If human readability is important, then you'll have to sacrifice a lot of performance, but it can be achieved fairly well using csv (which is also very portable of course).

More details and the code are available at the github repo.

How can I convert JSON to a HashMap using Gson?

Here is what I have been using:

public static HashMap<String, Object> parse(String json) {
    JsonObject object = (JsonObject) parser.parse(json);
    Set<Map.Entry<String, JsonElement>> set = object.entrySet();
    Iterator<Map.Entry<String, JsonElement>> iterator = set.iterator();
    HashMap<String, Object> map = new HashMap<String, Object>();
    while (iterator.hasNext()) {
        Map.Entry<String, JsonElement> entry = iterator.next();
        String key = entry.getKey();
        JsonElement value = entry.getValue();
        if (!value.isJsonPrimitive()) {
            map.put(key, parse(value.toString()));
        } else {
            map.put(key, value.getAsString());
        }
    }
    return map;
}

Fastest way to get the first n elements of a List into an Array

Option 3

Iterators are faster than using the get operation, since the get operation has to start from the beginning if it has to do some traversal. It probably wouldn't make a difference in an ArrayList, but other data structures could see a noticeable speed difference. This is also compatible with things that aren't lists, like sets.

String[] out = new String[n];
Iterator<String> iterator = in.iterator();
for (int i = 0; i < n && iterator.hasNext(); i++)
    out[i] = iterator.next();

How to cut first n and last n columns?

How to find path of active app.config file?

I tried one of the previous answers in a web app (actually an Azure web role running locally) and it didn't quite work. However, this similar approach did work:

var map = new ExeConfigurationFileMap { ExeConfigFilename = "MyComponent.dll.config" };
var path = ConfigurationManager.OpenMappedExeConfiguration(map, ConfigurationUserLevel.None).FilePath;

The config file turned out to be in C:\Program Files\IIS Express\MyComponent.dll.config. Interesting place for it.

Remove style attribute from HTML tags

I use this:

function strip_word_html($text, $allowed_tags = '<a><ul><li><b><i><sup><sub><em><strong><u><br><br/><br /><p><h2><h3><h4><h5><h6>')
{
    mb_regex_encoding('UTF-8');
    //replace MS special characters first
    $search = array('/&lsquo;/u', '/&rsquo;/u', '/&ldquo;/u', '/&rdquo;/u', '/&mdash;/u');
    $replace = array('\'', '\'', '"', '"', '-');
    $text = preg_replace($search, $replace, $text);
    //make sure _all_ html entities are converted to the plain ascii equivalents - it appears
    //in some MS headers, some html entities are encoded and some aren't
    //$text = html_entity_decode($text, ENT_QUOTES, 'UTF-8');
    //try to strip out any C style comments first, since these, embedded in html comments, seem to
    //prevent strip_tags from removing html comments (MS Word introduced combination)
    if(mb_stripos($text, '/*') !== FALSE){
        $text = mb_eregi_replace('#/\*.*?\*/#s', '', $text, 'm');
    }
    //introduce a space into any arithmetic expressions that could be caught by strip_tags so that they won't be
    //'<1' becomes '< 1'(note: somewhat application specific)
    $text = preg_replace(array('/<([0-9]+)/'), array('< $1'), $text);
    $text = strip_tags($text, $allowed_tags);
    //eliminate extraneous whitespace from start and end of line, or anywhere there are two or more spaces, convert it to one
    $text = preg_replace(array('/^\s\s+/', '/\s\s+$/', '/\s\s+/u'), array('', '', ' '), $text);
    //strip out inline css and simplify style tags
    $search = array('#<(strong|b)[^>]*>(.*?)</(strong|b)>#isu', '#<(em|i)[^>]*>(.*?)</(em|i)>#isu', '#<u[^>]*>(.*?)</u>#isu');
    $replace = array('<b>$2</b>', '<i>$2</i>', '<u>$1</u>');
    $text = preg_replace($search, $replace, $text);
    //on some of the ?newer MS Word exports, where you get conditionals of the form 'if gte mso 9', etc., it appears

    $num_matches = preg_match_all("/\<!--/u", $text, $matches);

Looking for simple Java in-memory cache

Try Ehcache? It allows you to plug in your own caching expiry algorithms so you could control your peek functionality.

You can serialize to disk, database, across a cluster etc...

Pyspark: display a spark data frame in a table format

As mentioned by @Brent in the comment of @maxymoo's answer, you can try

df.limit(10).toPandas()

to get a prettier table in Jupyter. But this can take some time to run if you are not caching the spark dataframe. Also, .limit() will not keep the order of original spark dataframe.

Detach (move) subdirectory into separate Git repository

It appears that most (all?) of the answers here rely on some form of git filter-branch --subdirectory-filter and its ilk. This may work "most times" however for some cases, for instance the case of when you renamed the folder, ex:

 ABC/
    /move_this_dir # did some work here, then renamed it to

ABC/
    /move_this_dir_renamed

If you do a normal git filter style to extract "move_this_dir_renamed" you will lose file change history that occurred from back when it was initially "move_this_dir" (ref).

It thus appears that the only way to really keep all change history (if yours is a case like this), is, in essence, to copy the repository (create a new repo, set that to be the origin), then nuke everything else and rename the subdirectory to the parent like this:

  1. Clone the multi-module project locally
  2. Branches - check what's there: git branch -a
  3. Do a checkout to each branch to be included in the split to get a local copy on your workstation: git checkout --track origin/branchABC
  4. Make a copy in a new directory: cp -r oldmultimod simple
  5. Go into the new project copy: cd simple
  6. Get rid of the other modules that aren't needed in this project:
  7. git rm otherModule1 other2 other3
  8. Now only the subdir of the target module remains
  9. Get rid of the module subdir so that the module root becomes the new project root
  10. git mv moduleSubdir1/* .
  11. Delete the relic subdir: rmdir moduleSubdir1
  12. Check changes at any point: git status
  13. Create the new git repo and copy its URL to point this project into it:
  14. git remote set-url origin http://mygithost:8080/git/our-splitted-module-repo
  15. Verify this is good: git remote -v
  16. Push the changes up to the remote repo: git push
  17. Go to the remote repo and check it's all there
  18. Repeat it for any other branch needed: git checkout branch2

This follows the github doc "Splitting a subfolder out into a new repository" steps 6-11 to push the module to a new repo.

This will not save you any space in your .git folder, but it will preserve all your change history for those files even across renames. And this may not be worth it if there isn't "a lot" of history lost, etc. But at least you are guaranteed not to lose older commits!

GroupBy pandas DataFrame and select most common value

For agg, the lambba function gets a Series, which does not have a 'Short name' attribute.

stats.mode returns a tuple of two arrays, so you have to take the first element of the first array in this tuple.

With these two simple changements:

source.groupby(['Country','City']).agg(lambda x: stats.mode(x)[0][0])

returns

                         Short name
Country City                       
Russia  Sankt-Petersburg        Spb
USA     New-York                 NY

How do I create a table based on another table

There is no such syntax in SQL Server, though CREATE TABLE AS ... SELECT does exist in PDW. In SQL Server you can use this query to create an empty table:

SELECT * INTO schema.newtable FROM schema.oldtable WHERE 1 = 0;

(If you want to make a copy of the table including all of the data, then leave out the WHERE clause.)

Note that this creates the same column structure (including an IDENTITY column if one exists) but it does not copy any indexes, constraints, triggers, etc.

Difference between IISRESET and IIS Stop-Start command

Take IISReset as a suite of commands that helps you manage IIS start / stop etc.

Which means you need to specify option (/switch) what you want to do to carry any operation.

Default behavior OR default switch is /restart with iisreset so you do not need to run command twice with /start and /stop.

Hope this clarifies your question. For reference the output of iisreset /? is:

IISRESET.EXE (c) Microsoft Corp. 1998-2005

Usage:
iisreset [computername]

    /RESTART            Stop and then restart all Internet services.
    /START              Start all Internet services.
    /STOP               Stop all Internet services.
    /REBOOT             Reboot the computer.
    /REBOOTONERROR      Reboot the computer if an error occurs when starting,
                        stopping, or restarting Internet services.
    /NOFORCE            Do not forcefully terminate Internet services if
                        attempting to stop them gracefully fails.
    /TIMEOUT:val        Specify the timeout value ( in seconds ) to wait for
                        a successful stop of Internet services. On expiration
                        of this timeout the computer can be rebooted if
                        the /REBOOTONERROR parameter is specified.
                        The default value is 20s for restart, 60s for stop,
                        and 0s for reboot.
    /STATUS             Display the status of all Internet services.
    /ENABLE             Enable restarting of Internet Services
                        on the local system.
    /DISABLE            Disable restarting of Internet Services
                        on the local system.

Can we write our own iterator in Java?

The best reusable option is to implement the interface Iterable and override the method iterator().

Here's an example of a an ArrayList like class implementing the interface, in which you override the method Iterator().

import java.util.Iterator;

public class SOList<Type> implements Iterable<Type> {

    private Type[] arrayList;
    private int currentSize;

    public SOList(Type[] newArray) {
        this.arrayList = newArray;
        this.currentSize = arrayList.length;
    }

    @Override
    public Iterator<Type> iterator() {
        Iterator<Type> it = new Iterator<Type>() {

            private int currentIndex = 0;

            @Override
            public boolean hasNext() {
                return currentIndex < currentSize && arrayList[currentIndex] != null;
            }

            @Override
            public Type next() {
                return arrayList[currentIndex++];
            }

            @Override
            public void remove() {
                throw new UnsupportedOperationException();
            }
        };
        return it;
    }
}

This class implements the Iterable interface using Generics. Considering you have elements to the array, you will be able to get an instance of an Iterator, which is the needed instance used by the "foreach" loop, for instance.

You can just create an anonymous instance of the iterator without creating extending Iterator and take advantage of the value of currentSize to verify up to where you can navigate over the array (let's say you created an array with capacity of 10, but you have only 2 elements at 0 and 1). The instance will have its owner counter of where it is and all you need to do is to play with hasNext(), which verifies if the current value is not null, and the next(), which will return the instance of your currentIndex. Below is an example of using this API...

public static void main(String[] args) {
    // create an array of type Integer
    Integer[] numbers = new Integer[]{1, 2, 3, 4, 5};

    // create your list and hold the values.
    SOList<Integer> stackOverflowList = new SOList<Integer>(numbers);

    // Since our class SOList is an instance of Iterable, then we can use it on a foreach loop
    for(Integer num : stackOverflowList) {
        System.out.print(num);
    }

    // creating an array of Strings
    String[] languages = new String[]{"C", "C++", "Java", "Python", "Scala"};

    // create your list and hold the values using the same list implementation.
    SOList<String> languagesList = new SOList<String>(languages);

    System.out.println("");
    // Since our class SOList is an instance of Iterable, then we can use it on a foreach loop
    for(String lang : languagesList) {
        System.out.println(lang);
    }
}
// will print "12345
//C
//C++
//Java
//Python
//Scala

If you want, you can iterate over it as well using the Iterator instance:

// navigating the iterator
while (allNumbers.hasNext()) {
    Integer value = allNumbers.next();
    if (allNumbers.hasNext()) {
        System.out.print(value + ", ");
    } else {
        System.out.print(value);
    }
} 
// will print 1, 2, 3, 4, 5

The foreach documentation is located at http://download.oracle.com/javase/1,5.0/docs/guide/language/foreach.html. You can take a look at a more complete implementation at my personal practice google code.

Now, to get the effects of what you need I think you need to plug a concept of a filter in the Iterator... Since the iterator depends on the next values, it would be hard to return true on hasNext(), and then filter the next() implementation with a value that does not start with a char "a" for instance. I think you need to play around with a secondary Interator based on a filtered list with the values with the given filter.

"Warning: iPhone apps should include an armv6 architecture" even with build config set

If xCode keep complaining about armv7, make sure you disconnect any connect device (especially iPhone 5!!) and try again. Took me hours to find out that little piece of information.

Add new item in existing array in c#.net

Very old question, but still wanted to add this.

If you're looking for a one-liner, you can use the code below. It combines the list constructor that accepts an enumerable and the "new" (since question raised) initializer syntax.

myArray = new List<string>(myArray) { "add this" }.ToArray();

XSL xsl:template match="/"

It's worth noting, since it's confusing for people new to XML, that the root (or document node) of an XML document is not the top-level element. It's the parent of the top-level element. This is confusing because it doesn't seem like the top-level element can have a parent. Isn't it the top level?

But look at this, a well-formed XML document:

<?xml-stylesheet href="my_transform.xsl" type="text/xsl"?>
<!-- Comments and processing instructions are XML nodes too, remember. -->
<TopLevelElement/>

The root of this document has three children: a processing instruction, a comment, and an element.

So, for example, if you wanted to write a transform that got rid of that comment, but left in any comments appearing anywhere else in the document, you'd add this to the identity transform:

<xsl:template match="/comment()"/>

Even simpler (and more commonly useful), here's an XPath pattern that matches the document's top-level element irrespective of its name: /*.

Why is datetime.strptime not working in this simple example?

You should be using datetime.datetime.strptime. Note that very old versions of Python (2.4 and older) don't have datetime.datetime.strptime; use time.strptime in that case.

java.lang.RuntimeException: Uncompilable source code - what can cause this?

It's caused by NetBeans retaining some of the old source and/or compiled code in its cache and not noticing that e.g. some of the code's dependencies (i.e. referenced packages) have changed, and that a proper refresh/recompile of the file would be in order.

The solution is to force that refresh by either:

a) locating & editing the offending source file to force its recompilation (e.g. add a dummy line, save, remove it, save again),
b) doing a clean build (sometimes will work, sometimes won't),
c) disabling "Compile on save" (not recommended, since it can make using the IDE a royal PITA), or
d) simply remove NetBeans cache by hand, forcing the recompilation.

As to how to remove the cache:

If you're using an old version of NetBeans:

  • delete everything related to your project in .netbeans/6.9/var/cache/index/ (replace 6.9 with your version).

If you're using a newer one:

  • delete everything related to your project in AppData/Local/NetBeans/Cache/8.1/index/ (replace 8.1 with your version).

The paths may vary a little e.g. on different platforms, but the idea is still the same.

Difference between a script and a program?

A "program" in general, is a sequence of instructions written so that a computer can perform certain task.

A "script" is code written in a scripting language. A scripting language is nothing but a type of programming language in which we can write code to control another software application.

In fact, programming languages are of two types:

a. Scripting Language

b. Compiled Language

UITableView example for Swift

In Swift 4.1 and Xcode 9.4.1

  1. Add UITableViewDataSource, UITableViewDelegate delegated to your class.

  2. Create table view variable and array.

  3. In viewDidLoad create table view.

  4. Call table view delegates

  5. Call table view delegate functions based on your requirement.

import UIKit
// 1
class yourViewController: UIViewController , UITableViewDataSource, UITableViewDelegate { 

// 2
var yourTableView:UITableView = UITableView()
let myArray = ["row 1", "row 2", "row 3", "row 4"]

override func viewDidLoad() {
    super.viewDidLoad()

    // 3
    yourTableView.frame = CGRect(x: 10, y: 10, width: view.frame.width-20, height: view.frame.height-200)
    self.view.addSubview(yourTableView)

    // 4
    yourTableView.dataSource = self
    yourTableView.delegate = self

}

// 5
// MARK - UITableView Delegates
func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, numberOfRowsInSection section: Int) -> Int {

    return myArray.count
}

func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, cellForRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> UITableViewCell {

var cell : UITableViewCell? = tableView.dequeueReusableCell(withIdentifier: "cell")
    if cell == nil {
        cell = UITableViewCell(style: UITableViewCellStyle.default, reuseIdentifier: "cell")
    }
    if self. myArray.count > 0 {
        cell?.textLabel!.text = self. myArray[indexPath.row]
    }
    cell?.textLabel?.numberOfLines = 0

    return cell!
}

func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, heightForRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> CGFloat {

    return 50.0
}

If you are using storyboard, no need for Step 3.

But you need to create IBOutlet for your table view before Step 4.

Converting unix timestamp string to readable date

Convert String (UTF-16) to UTF-8 in C#

A string in C# is always UTF-16, there is no way to "convert" it. The encoding is irrelevant as long as you manipulate the string in memory, it only matters if you write the string to a stream (file, memory stream, network stream...).

If you want to write the string to a XML file, just specify the encoding when you create the XmlWriter

Oracle TNS names not showing when adding new connection to SQL Developer

You can always find out the location of the tnsnames.ora file being used by running TNSPING to check connectivity (9i or later):

Sometimes, the problem is with the entry you made in tnsnames.ora, not that the system can't find it. That said, I agree that having a tns_admin environment variable set is a Good Thing, since it avoids the inevitable issues that arise with determining exactly which tnsnames file is being used in systems with multiple oracle homes.

Circle button css

The problem is that the actual width of an a tag depends on its contents. Your code has no text in the a tag, so it appears like a hunger-sunken circle. If you use the div tag along the a, you get the desired results.

Check this code out:

_x000D_
_x000D_
.btn {
  background-color: green;
  border-radius: 50%;
  /*this will rounden-up the button*/
  width: 80px;
  height: 80px;
  /*keep the height and width equal*/
}

What is the difference between connection and read timeout for sockets?

These are timeout values enforced by JVM for TCP connection establishment and waiting on reading data from socket.

If the value is set to infinity, you will not wait forever. It simply means JVM doesn't have timeout and OS will be responsible for all the timeouts. However, the timeouts on OS may be really long. On some slow network, I've seen timeouts as long as 6 minutes.

Even if you set the timeout value for socket, it may not work if the timeout happens in the native code. We can reproduce the problem on Linux by connecting to a host blocked by firewall or unplugging the cable on switch.

The only safe approach to handle TCP timeout is to run the connection code in a different thread and interrupt the thread when it takes too long.

In order to use Qt with dynamic linking you have to specify the lib files (usually qtmaind.lib, QtCored4.lib and QtGuid4.lib for the "Debug" configration) in
Properties » Linker » Input » Additional Dependencies.

You also have to specify the path where the libs are, namely in
Properties » Linker » General » Additional Library Directories.

And you need to make the corresponding .dlls are accessible at runtime, by either storing them in the same folder as your .exe or in a folder that is on your path.

OpenSSL: unable to verify the first certificate for Experian URL

Adding additional information to emboss's answer.

To put it simply, there is an incorrect cert in your certificate chain.

For example, your certificate authority will have most likely given you 3 files.

  • your_domain_name.crt
  • DigiCertCA.crt # (Or whatever the name of your certificate authority is)
  • TrustedRoot.crt

You most likely combined all of these files into one bundle.

-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE----- 
(Your Primary SSL certificate: your_domain_name.crt) 
-----END CERTIFICATE----- 
-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE----- 
(Your Intermediate certificate: DigiCertCA.crt) 
-----END CERTIFICATE----- 
-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE----- 
(Your Root certificate: TrustedRoot.crt) 
-----END CERTIFICATE-----

If you create the bundle, but use an old, or an incorrect version of your Intermediate Cert (DigiCertCA.crt in my example), you will get the exact symptoms you are describing.

Redownload all certs from your certificate authority and make a fresh bundle.

Remove file from SVN repository without deleting local copy

When you want to remove one xxx.java file from SVN:

  1. Go to workspace path where the file is located.
  2. Delete that file from the folder (xxx.java)
  3. Right click and commit, then a window will open.
  4. Select the file you deleted (xxx.java) from the folder, and again right click and delete.. it will remove the file from SVN.

Stored Procedure parameter default value - is this a constant or a variable

It has to be a constant - the value has to be computable at the time that the procedure is created, and that one computation has to provide the value that will always be used.

Look at the definition of sys.all_parameters:

default_value sql_variant If has_default_value is 1, the value of this column is the value of the default for the parameter; otherwise, NULL.

That is, whatever the default for a parameter is, it has to fit in that column.


As Alex K pointed out in the comments, you can just do:

CREATE PROCEDURE [dbo].[problemParam] 
    @StartDate INT = NULL,
    @EndDate INT = NULL
AS  
BEGIN
   SET @StartDate = COALESCE(@StartDate,CONVERT(INT,(CONVERT(CHAR(8),GETDATE()-130,112))))

provided that NULL isn't intended to be a valid value for @StartDate.


As to the blog post you linked to in the comments - that's talking about a very specific context - that, the result of evaluating GETDATE() within the context of a single query is often considered to be constant. I don't know of many people (unlike the blog author) who would consider a separate expression inside a UDF to be part of the same query as the query that calls the UDF.

Using "&times" word in html changes to ×

You need to escape the ampersand:

<div class="test">&amp;times</div>

&times means a multiplication sign. (Technically it should be &times; but lenient browsers let you omit the ;.)

How to reverse apply a stash?

git stash show -p | git apply --reverse

Warning, that would not in every case: "git apply -R"(man) did not handle patches that touch the same path twice correctly, which has been corrected with Git 2.30 (Q1 2021).

This is most relevant in a patch that changes a path from a regular file to a symbolic link (and vice versa).

See commit b0f266d (20 Oct 2020) by Jonathan Tan (jhowtan).
(Merged by Junio C Hamano -- gitster -- in commit c23cd78, 02 Nov 2020)

apply: when -R, also reverse list of sections

Helped-by: Junio C Hamano
Signed-off-by: Jonathan Tan

A patch changing a symlink into a file is written with 2 sections (in the code, represented as "struct patch"): firstly, the deletion of the symlink, and secondly, the creation of the file.

When applying that patch with -R, the sections are reversed, so we get: (1) creation of a symlink, then (2) deletion of a file.

This causes an issue when the "deletion of a file" section is checked, because Git observes that the so-called file is not a file but a symlink, resulting in a "wrong type" error message.

What we want is: (1) deletion of a file, then (2) creation of a symlink.

In the code, this is reflected in the behavior of previous_patch() when invoked from check_preimage() when the deletion is checked.
Creation then deletion means that when the deletion is checked, previous_patch() returns the creation section, triggering a mode conflict resulting in the "wrong type" error message.

But deletion then creation means that when the deletion is checked, previous_patch() returns NULL, so the deletion mode is checked against lstat, which is what we want.

There are also other ways a patch can contain 2 sections referencing the same file, for example, in 7a07841c0b ("git-apply: handle a patch that touches the same path more than once better", 2008-06-27, Git v1.6.0-rc0 -- merge). "git apply -R"(man) fails in the same way, and this commit makes this case succeed.

Therefore, when building the list of sections, build them in reverse order (by adding to the front of the list instead of the back) when -R is passed.

SimpleDateFormat parse loses timezone

OP's solution to his problem, as he says, has dubious output. That code still shows confusion about representations of time. To clear up this confusion, and make code that won't lead to wrong times, consider this extension of what he did:

public static void _testDateFormatting() {
    SimpleDateFormat sdfGMT1 = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy.MM.dd HH:mm:ss");
    sdfGMT1.setTimeZone(TimeZone.getTimeZone("GMT"));
    SimpleDateFormat sdfGMT2 = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy.MM.dd HH:mm:ss z");
    sdfGMT2.setTimeZone(TimeZone.getTimeZone("GMT"));

    SimpleDateFormat sdfLocal1 = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy.MM.dd HH:mm:ss");
    SimpleDateFormat sdfLocal2 = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy.MM.dd HH:mm:ss z");

    try {
        Date d = new Date();
        String s1 = d.toString();
        String s2 = sdfLocal1.format(d);
        // Store s3 or s4 in database.
        String s3 = sdfGMT1.format(d);
        String s4 = sdfGMT2.format(d);
        // Retrieve s3 or s4 from database, using LOCAL sdf.
        String s5 = sdfLocal1.parse(s3).toString();
        //EXCEPTION String s6 = sdfLocal2.parse(s3).toString();
        String s7 = sdfLocal1.parse(s4).toString();
        String s8 = sdfLocal2.parse(s4).toString();
        // Retrieve s3 from database, using GMT sdf.
        // Note that this is the SAME sdf that created s3.
        Date d2 = sdfGMT1.parse(s3);
        String s9 = d2.toString();
        String s10 = sdfGMT1.format(d2);
        String s11 = sdfLocal2.format(d2);
    } catch (Exception e) {
        e.printStackTrace();
    }       
}

examining values in a debugger:

s1  "Mon Sep 07 06:11:53 EDT 2015" (id=831698113128)    
s2  "2015.09.07 06:11:53" (id=831698114048) 
s3  "2015.09.07 10:11:53" (id=831698114968) 
s4  "2015.09.07 10:11:53 GMT+00:00" (id=831698116112)   
s5  "Mon Sep 07 10:11:53 EDT 2015" (id=831698116944)    
s6  -- omitted, gave parse exception    
s7  "Mon Sep 07 10:11:53 EDT 2015" (id=831698118680)    
s8  "Mon Sep 07 06:11:53 EDT 2015" (id=831698119584)    
s9  "Mon Sep 07 06:11:53 EDT 2015" (id=831698120392)    
s10 "2015.09.07 10:11:53" (id=831698121312) 
s11 "2015.09.07 06:11:53 EDT" (id=831698122256) 

sdf2 and sdfLocal2 include time zone, so we can see what is really going on. s1 & s2 are at 06:11:53 in zone EDT. s3 & s4 are at 10:11:53 in zone GMT -- equivalent to the original EDT time. Imagine we save s3 or s4 in a data base, where we are using GMT for consistency, so we can have times from anywhere in the world, without storing different time zones.

s5 parses the GMT time, but treats it as a local time. So it says "10:11:53" -- the GMT time -- but thinks it is 10:11:53 in local time. Not good.

s7 parses the GMT time, but ignores the GMT in the string, so still treats it as a local time.

s8 works, because now we include GMT in the string, and the local zone parser uses it to convert from one time zone to another.

Now suppose you don't want to store the zone, you want to be able to parse s3, but display it as a local time. The answer is to parse using the same time zone it was stored in -- so use the same sdf as it was created in, sdfGMT1. s9, s10, & s11 are all representations of the original time. They are all "correct". That is, d2 == d1. Then it is only a question of how you want to DISPLAY it. If you want to display what is stored in DB -- GMT time -- then you need to format it using a GMT sdf. Ths is s10.

So here is the final solution, if you don't want to explicitly store with " GMT" in the string, and want to display in GMT format:

public static void _testDateFormatting() {
    SimpleDateFormat sdfGMT1 = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy.MM.dd HH:mm:ss");
    sdfGMT1.setTimeZone(TimeZone.getTimeZone("GMT"));

    try {
        Date d = new Date();
        String s3 = sdfGMT1.format(d);
        // Store s3 in DB.
        // ...
        // Retrieve s3 from database, using GMT sdf.
        Date d2 = sdfGMT1.parse(s3);
        String s10 = sdfGMT1.format(d2);
    } catch (Exception e) {
        e.printStackTrace();
    }       
}

Press Enter to move to next control

A couple of code examples in C# using SelectNextControl.

The first moves to the next control when ENTER is pressed.

    private void Control_KeyUp( object sender, KeyEventArgs e )
    {
        if( (e.KeyCode == Keys.Enter) || (e.KeyCode == Keys.Return) )
        {
            this.SelectNextControl( (Control)sender, true, true, true, true );
        }
    }

The second uses the UP and DOWN arrows to move through the controls.

    private void Control_KeyUp( object sender, KeyEventArgs e )
    {
        if( e.KeyCode == Keys.Up )
        {
            this.SelectNextControl( (Control)sender, false, true, true, true );
        }
        else if( e.KeyCode == Keys.Down )
        {
            this.SelectNextControl( (Control)sender, true, true, true, true );
        }
    }

See MSDN SelectNextControl Method

Matplotlib scatterplot; colour as a function of a third variable

In matplotlib grey colors can be given as a string of a numerical value between 0-1.
For example c = '0.1'

Then you can convert your third variable in a value inside this range and to use it to color your points.
In the following example I used the y position of the point as the value that determines the color:

from matplotlib import pyplot as plt

x = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9]
y = [125, 32, 54, 253, 67, 87, 233, 56, 67]

color = [str(item/255.) for item in y]

plt.scatter(x, y, s=500, c=color)

plt.show()

Protect .NET code from reverse engineering?

.NET Reflector can only open "managed code" which basically means ".NET code". So you can't use it to disassemble COM DLL files, native C++, classic Visual Basic 6.0 code, etc. The structure of compiled .NET code makes it very convenient, portable, discoverable, verifiable, etc. .NET Reflector takes advantage of this to let you peer into compiled assemblies but decompilers and disassemblers are by no means specific to .NET and have been around as long as compilers have been around.

You can use obfuscators to make the code more difficult to read, but you can't exactly prevent it from being decompiled without also making it unreadable to .NET. There are a handful of products out there (usually expensive) that claim to "link" your managed code application into a native code application, but even if these actually work, a determined person will always find a way.

When it comes to obfuscation however, you get what you pay for. So if your code is so proprietary that you must go to such great lengths to protect it, you should be willing to invest money in a good obfuscator.

However, in my 15 or so years of experience writing code I've realized that being over-protective of your source code is a waste of time and has little benefit. Just trying to read original source code without supporting documentation, comments, etc. can be very difficult to understand. Add to that the senseless variable names that decompilers come up with and the spaghetti code that modern obfuscators create - you probably don't have to worry too much about people stealing your intellectual property.

Setting Icon for wpf application (VS 08)

After getting a XamlParseException with message: 'Provide value on 'System.Windows.Baml2006.TypeConverterMarkupExtension' with the given solutions, setting the icon programmatically worked for me. This is how I did it:

  1. Put the icon in a folder <icon_path> in the project directory
  2. Mimic the folder path <icon_path> in the solution
  3. Add a new item (your icon) in the solution folder you created
  4. Add the following code in the WPF window's code behind:

Icon = new BitmapImage(new Uri("<icon_path>", UriKind.Relative));

Please inform me if you have any difficulties implementing this solution so I can help.

How do I make case-insensitive queries on Mongodb?

MongoDB 3.4 now includes the ability to make a true case-insensitive index, which will dramtically increase the speed of case insensitive lookups on large datasets. It is made by specifying a collation with a strength of 2.

Probably the easiest way to do it is to set a collation on the database. Then all queries inherit that collation and will use it:

db.createCollection("cities", { collation: { locale: 'en_US', strength: 2 } } )
db.names.createIndex( { city: 1 } ) // inherits the default collation

You can also do it like this:

db.myCollection.createIndex({city: 1}, {collation: {locale: "en", strength: 2}});

And use it like this:

db.myCollection.find({city: "new york"}).collation({locale: "en", strength: 2});

This will return cities named "new york", "New York", "New york", etc.

how to convert string into dictionary in python 3.*?

  1. literal_eval, a somewhat safer version of eval (will only evaluate literals ie strings, lists etc):

    from ast import literal_eval
    
    python_dict = literal_eval("{'a': 1}")
    
  2. json.loads but it would require your string to use double quotes:

    import json
    
    python_dict = json.loads('{"a": 1}')

NSRange to Range<String.Index>

Here's my best effort. But this cannot check or detect wrong input argument.

extension String {
    /// :r: Must correctly select proper UTF-16 code-unit range. Wrong range will produce wrong result.
    public func convertRangeFromNSRange(r:NSRange) -> Range<String.Index> {
        let a   =   (self as NSString).substringToIndex(r.location)
        let b   =   (self as NSString).substringWithRange(r)

        let n1  =   distance(a.startIndex, a.endIndex)
        let n2  =   distance(b.startIndex, b.endIndex)

        let i1  =   advance(startIndex, n1)
        let i2  =   advance(i1, n2)

        return  Range<String.Index>(start: i1, end: i2)
    }
}

let s   =   ""
println(s[s.convertRangeFromNSRange(NSRange(location: 4, length: 2))])      //  Proper range. Produces correct result.
println(s[s.convertRangeFromNSRange(NSRange(location: 0, length: 4))])      //  Proper range. Produces correct result.
println(s[s.convertRangeFromNSRange(NSRange(location: 0, length: 2))])      //  Improper range. Produces wrong result.
println(s[s.convertRangeFromNSRange(NSRange(location: 0, length: 1))])      //  Improper range. Produces wrong result.

Result.





Details

NSRange from NSString counts UTF-16 code-units. And Range<String.Index> from Swift String is an opaque relative type which provides only equality and navigation operations. This is intentionally hidden design.

Though the Range<String.Index> seem to be mapped to UTF-16 code-unit offset, that is just an implementation detail, and I couldn't find any mention about any guarantee. That means the implementation details can be changed at any time. Internal representation of Swift String is not pretty defined, and I cannot rely on it.

NSRange values can be directly mapped to String.UTF16View indexes. But there's no method to convert it into String.Index.

Swift String.Index is index to iterate Swift Character which is an Unicode grapheme cluster. Then, you must provide proper NSRange which selects correct grapheme clusters. If you provide wrong range like the above example, it will produce wrong result because proper grapheme cluster range couldn't be figured out.

If there's a guarantee that the String.Index is UTF-16 code-unit offset, then problem becomes simple. But it is unlikely to happen.

Inverse conversion

Anyway the inverse conversion can be done precisely.

extension String {
    /// O(1) if `self` is optimised to use UTF-16.
    /// O(n) otherwise.
    public func convertRangeToNSRange(r:Range<String.Index>) -> NSRange {
        let a   =   substringToIndex(r.startIndex)
        let b   =   substringWithRange(r)

        return  NSRange(location: a.utf16Count, length: b.utf16Count)
    }
}
println(convertRangeToNSRange(s.startIndex..<s.endIndex))
println(convertRangeToNSRange(s.startIndex.successor()..<s.endIndex))

Result.

javascript get child by id

This works well:

function test(el){
  el.childNodes.item("child").style.display = "none";
}

If the argument of item() function is an integer, the function will treat it as an index. If the argument is a string, then the function searches for name or ID of element.

How to convert a Title to a URL slug in jQuery?

First of all, regular expressions should not have surrounding quotes, so '/\s/g' should be /\s/g

In order to replace all non-alphanumerical characters with dashes, this should work (using your example code):

$("#Restaurant_Name").keyup(function(){
        var Text = $(this).val();
        Text = Text.toLowerCase();
        Text = Text.replace(/[^a-zA-Z0-9]+/g,'-');
        $("#Restaurant_Slug").val(Text);        
});

That should do the trick...

How to pass payload via JSON file for curl?

curl sends POST requests with the default content type of application/x-www-form-urlencoded. If you want to send a JSON request, you will have to specify the correct content type header:

$ curl -vX POST http://server/api/v1/places.json -d @testplace.json \
--header "Content-Type: application/json"

But that will only work if the server accepts json input. The .json at the end of the url may only indicate that the output is json, it doesn't necessarily mean that it also will handle json input. The API documentation should give you a hint on whether it does or not.

The reason you get a 401 and not some other error is probably because the server can't extract the auth_token from your request.

ffmpeg usage to encode a video to H264 codec format

I have a Centos 5 system that I wasn't able to get this working on. So I built a new Fedora 17 system (actually a VM in VMware), and followed the steps at the ffmpeg site to build the latest and greatest ffmpeg.

I took some shortcuts - I skipped all the yum erase commands, added freshrpms according to their instructions:

wget http://ftp.freshrpms.net/pub/freshrpms/fedora/linux/9/freshrpms-release/freshrpms-release-1.1-1.fc.noarch.rpm
rpm -ivh rpmfusion-free-release-stable.noarch.rpm

Then I loaded the stuff that was already readily available:

yum install lame libogg libtheora libvorbis lame-devel libtheora-devel

Afterwards, I only built the following from scratch: libvpx vo-aacenc-0.1.2 x264 yasm-1.2.0 ffmpeg

Then this command encoded with no problems (the audio was already in AAC, so I didn't recode it):

ffmpeg -i input.mov -c:v libx264 -preset slow -crf 22 -c:a copy output.mp4

The result looks just as good as the original to me, and is about 1/4 of the size!

ERROR: ld.so: object LD_PRELOAD cannot be preloaded: ignored

The linker takes some environment variables into account. one is LD_PRELOAD

from man 8 ld-linux:

LD_PRELOAD
          A whitespace-separated list of additional,  user-specified,  ELF
          shared  libraries  to  be loaded before all others.  This can be
          used  to  selectively  override  functions   in   other   shared
          libraries.   For  setuid/setgid  ELF binaries, only libraries in
          the standard search directories that are  also  setgid  will  be
          loaded.

Therefore the linker will try to load libraries listed in the LD_PRELOAD variable before others are loaded.

What could be the case that inside the variable is listed a library that can't be pre-loaded. look inside your .bashrc or .bash_profile environment where the LD_PRELOAD is set and remove that library from the variable.

Combine two pandas Data Frames (join on a common column)

Joining fails if the DataFrames have some column names in common. The simplest way around it is to include an lsuffix or rsuffix keyword like so:

restaurant_review_frame.join(restaurant_ids_dataframe, on='business_id', how='left', lsuffix="_review")

This way, the columns have distinct names. The documentation addresses this very problem.

Or, you could get around this by simply deleting the offending columns before you join. If, for example, the stars in restaurant_ids_dataframe are redundant to the stars in restaurant_review_frame, you could del restaurant_ids_dataframe['stars'].

C++ Object Instantiation

Treat heap as a very important real estate and use it very judiciously. The basic thumb rule is to use stack whenever possible and use heap whenever there is no other way. By allocating the objects on stack you can get many benefits such as:

(1). You need not have to worry about stack unwinding in case of exceptions

(2). You need not worry about memory fragmentation caused by the allocating more space than necessary by your heap manager.

No @XmlRootElement generated by JAXB

To tie together what others have already stated or hinted at, the rules by which JAXB XJC decides whether or not to put the @XmlRootElement annotation on a generated class are non trivial (see this article).

@XmlRootElement exists because the JAXB runtime requires certain information in order to marshal/unmarshal a given object, specifically the XML element name and namespace. You can't just pass any old object to the Marshaller. @XmlRootElement provides this information.

The annotation is just a convenience, however - JAXB does not require it. The alternative to is to use JAXBElement wrapper objects, which provide the same information as @XmlRootElement, but in the form of an object, rather than an annotation.

However, JAXBElement objects are awkward to construct, since you need to know the XML element name and namespace, which business logic usually doesn't.

Thankfully, when XJC generates a class model, it also generates a class called ObjectFactory. This is partly there for backwards compatibility with JAXB v1, but it's also there as a place for XJC to put generated factory methods which create JAXBElement wrappers around your own objects. It handles the XML name and namespace for you, so you don't need to worry about it. You just need to look through the ObjectFactory methods (and for large schema, there can be hundreds of them) to find the one you need.

How do I remove the top margin in a web page?

I have been having a similar issue. I wanted a percentage height and top-margin for my container div, but the body would take on the margin of the container div. I think I figured out a solution.

Here is my original (problem) code:

html {
    height:100%;
}

body {
    height:100%;                    
    margin-top:0%;
    padding:0%; 
}

#pageContainer {
    position:relative;
    width:96%;                  /* 100% - (margin * 2) */
    height:96%;                 /* 100% - (margin * 2) */           
    margin:2% auto 0% auto;
    padding:0%;
}

My solution was to set the height of the body the same as the height of the container.
html { height:100%; }

body {
    height:96%;     /* 100% * (pageContainer*2) */
    margin-top:0%;
    padding:0%; 
}

#pageContainer {
    position:relative;
    width:96%;                  /* 100% - (margin * 2) */
    height:96%;                 /* 100% - (margin * 2) */           
    margin:2% auto 0% auto;
    padding:0%;
}

I haven't tested it in every browser, but this seems to work.

How to change column datatype in SQL database without losing data

for me , in sql server 2016, I do it like this

*To rename column Column1 to column2

EXEC sp_rename 'dbo.T_Table1.Column1', 'Column2', 'COLUMN'

*To modify column Type from string to int:( Please be sure that data are in the correct format)

ALTER TABLE dbo.T_Table1 ALTER COLUMN Column2  int; 

How to find nth occurrence of character in a string?

I made a few changes to aioobe's answer and got a nth lastIndexOf version, and fix some NPE problems. See code below:

public int nthLastIndexOf(String str, char c, int n) {
        if (str == null || n < 1)
            return -1;
        int pos = str.length();
        while (n-- > 0 && pos != -1)
            pos = str.lastIndexOf(c, pos - 1);
        return pos;
}

Leaflet changing Marker color

A cheap way to change the Leaflet marker colour is to use the CSS filter property. Give the icon an extra class and then change its colour in the stylesheet:

<style>
img.huechange { filter: hue-rotate(120deg); }
</style>
<script>
var marker = L.marker([y, x]).addTo(map);
marker._icon.classList.add("huechange");
</script>

and this will produce a red marker: alter the value given to hue-rotate to alter the colour.

How can I change all input values to uppercase using Jquery?

Use css text-transform to display text in all input type text. In Jquery you can then transform the value to uppercase on blur event.

Css:

input[type=text] {
    text-transform: uppercase;
}

Jquery:

$(document).on('blur', "input[type=text]", function () {
    $(this).val(function (_, val) {
        return val.toUpperCase();
    });
});

How to update single value inside specific array item in redux

You can use map. Here is an example implementation:

case 'SOME_ACTION':
   return { 
       ...state, 
       contents: state.contents.map(
           (content, i) => i === 1 ? {...content, text: action.payload}
                                   : content
       )
    }

SQL Logic Operator Precedence: And and Or

  1. Arithmetic operators

  3. Comparison conditions
  4. IS [NOT] NULL, LIKE, [NOT] IN
  5. [NOT] BETWEEN
  6. Not equal to
  7. NOT logical condition
  8. AND logical condition
  9. OR logical condition

You can use parentheses to override rules of precedence.

Save child objects automatically using JPA Hibernate

Here are the ways to assign parent object in child object of Bi-directional relations ?

Suppose you have a relation say One-To-Many,then for each parent object,a set of child object exists. In bi-directional relations,each child object will have reference to its parent.

eg : Each Department will have list of Employees and each Employee is part of some department.This is called Bi directional relations.

To achieve this, one way is to assign parent in child object while persisting parent object

Parent parent = new Parent();
...
Child c1 = new Child();
...
c1.setParent(parent);

List<Child> children = new ArrayList<Child>();
children.add(c1);
parent.setChilds(children);

session.save(parent);

Other way is, you can do using hibernate Intercepter,this way helps you not to write above code for all models.

Hibernate interceptor provide apis to do your own work before perform any DB operation.Likewise onSave of object, we can assign parent object in child objects using reflection.

public class CustomEntityInterceptor extends EmptyInterceptor {

    @Override
    public boolean onSave(
            final Object entity, final Serializable id, final Object[] state, final String[] propertyNames,
            final Type[] types) {
        if (types != null) {
            for (int i = 0; i < types.length; i++) {
                if (types[i].isCollectionType()) {
                    String propertyName = propertyNames[i];
                    propertyName = propertyName.substring(0, 1).toUpperCase() + propertyName.substring(1);
                    try {
                        Method method = entity.getClass().getMethod("get" + propertyName);
                        List<Object> objectList = (List<Object>) method.invoke(entity);

                        if (objectList != null) {
                            for (Object object : objectList) {
                                String entityName = entity.getClass().getSimpleName();
                                Method eachMethod = object.getClass().getMethod("set" + entityName, entity.getClass());
                                eachMethod.invoke(object, entity);
                            }
                        }

                    } catch (NoSuchMethodException | InvocationTargetException | IllegalAccessException e) {
                        throw new RuntimeException(e);
                    }
                }
            }
        }
        return true;
    }

}

And you can register Intercepter to configuration as

new Configuration().setInterceptor( new CustomEntityInterceptor() );

Why should I use a container div in HTML?

THis method allows you to have more flexibility of styling your entire content. Effectivly creating two containers that you can style. THe HTML Body tag which serves as your background, and the div with an id of container which contains your content.

This then allows you to position your content within the page, while styling a background or other effects without issue. THink of it as a "Frame" for the content.

Android, canvas: How do I clear (delete contents of) a canvas (= bitmaps), living in a surfaceView?

    if (canvas == null) {
        // exit drawing thread
        break;
    }
    canvas.drawColor(colorToClearFromCanvas, PorterDuff.Mode.CLEAR);
} finally {
    if (canvas != null) {
        holder.unlockCanvasAndPost(canvas);
    }

COLLATION 'utf8_general_ci' is not valid for CHARACTER SET 'latin1'

Firstly run this query

SHOW VARIABLES LIKE '%char%';

You have character_set_server='latin1'

If so,go into your config file,my.cnf and add or uncomment these lines:

character-set-server = utf8
collation-server = utf8_unicode_ci

Restart the server. Yes late to the party,just encountered the same issue.

Switch tabs using Selenium WebDriver with Java

Since the driver.window_handles is not in order , a better solution is this.

first switch to the first tab using the shortcut Control + X to switch to the 'x' th tab in the browser window .

driver.findElement(By.cssSelector("body")).sendKeys(Keys.CONTROL + "1");
# goes to 1st tab

driver.findElement(By.cssSelector("body")).sendKeys(Keys.CONTROL + "4");
# goes to 4th tab if its exists or goes to last tab.

Add alternating row color to SQL Server Reporting services report

I think this trick is not discussed here. So here it is,

In any type of complex matrix, when you want alternate cell colors, either row wise or column wise, the working solution is,

If you want a alternate color of cells coloumn wise then,

  1. At the bottom right corner of a report design view, in "Column Groups", create a fake parent group on 1 (using expression), named "FakeParentGroup".
  2. Then, in the report design, for cells that to be colored alternatively, use following background color expression

=IIF(RunningValue( Fields![ColumnGroupField].Value, countDistinct, "FakeParentGroup" ) MOD 2, "White", "LightGrey")

Thats all.

Same for the alternate color row wise, just you have to edit solution accordingly.

NOTE: Here, sometimes you need to set border of cells accordingly, usually it vanishes.

Also dont forget to delete value 1 in report that came into pic when you created fake parent group.

"Cannot verify access to path (C:\inetpub\wwwroot)", when adding a virtual directory

I was having the same issue till just now; just as you mentioned, I tried "Connect As" and the username and password that I wrote down, was my machine's user (IIS is running on this machine), I tested the connection and it works now. Maybe if you weren't using that machine's user (try user with administrator privileges), you should give it a try, it worked for me, it may work in your case as well.

jQuery get html of container including the container itself

Java String split removed empty values

split(delimiter) by default removes trailing empty strings from result array. To turn this mechanism off we need to use overloaded version of split(delimiter, limit) with limit set to negative value like

String[] split = data.split("\\|", -1);

Little more details:
split(regex) internally returns result of split(regex, 0) and in documentation of this method you can find (emphasis mine)

The limit parameter controls the number of times the pattern is applied and therefore affects the length of the resulting array.

If the limit n is greater than zero then the pattern will be applied at most n - 1 times, the array's length will be no greater than n, and the array's last entry will contain all input beyond the last matched delimiter.

If n is non-positive then the pattern will be applied as many times as possible and the array can have any length.

If n is zero then the pattern will be applied as many times as possible, the array can have any length, and trailing empty strings will be discarded.

Exception:

It is worth mentioning that removing trailing empty string makes sense only if such empty strings ware created by split mechanism. So for "".split(anything) since we can't split "" farther we will get as result [""] array.
It happens because split didn't happen here, so "" despite being empty and trailing represents original string, not empty string which was created by splitting process.

Is it possible to append Series to rows of DataFrame without making a list first?

Maybe an easier way would be to add the pandas.Series into the pandas.DataFrame with ignore_index=True argument to DataFrame.append(). Example -

DF = DataFrame()
for sample,data in D_sample_data.items():
    SR_row = pd.Series(data.D_key_value)
    DF = DF.append(SR_row,ignore_index=True)

Demo -

In [1]: import pandas as pd

In [2]: df = pd.DataFrame([[1,2],[3,4]],columns=['A','B'])

In [3]: df
Out[3]:
   A  B
0  1  2
1  3  4

In [5]: s = pd.Series([5,6],index=['A','B'])

In [6]: s
Out[6]:
A    5
B    6
dtype: int64

In [36]: df.append(s,ignore_index=True)
Out[36]:
   A  B
0  1  2
1  3  4
2  5  6

Another issue in your code is that DataFrame.append() is not in-place, it returns the appended dataframe, you would need to assign it back to your original dataframe for it to work. Example -

DF = DF.append(SR_row,ignore_index=True)

To preserve the labels, you can use your solution to include name for the series along with assigning the appended DataFrame back to DF. Example -

DF = DataFrame()
for sample,data in D_sample_data.items():
    SR_row = pd.Series(data.D_key_value,name=sample)
    DF = DF.append(SR_row)
DF.head()

Border Radius of Table is not working

To use border radius I have a border radius of 20px in the table, and then put the border radius on the first child of the table header (th) and the last child of the table header.

table {
  border-collapse: collapse;
  border-radius:20px;
  padding: 10px;
}

table th:first-child {
  /* border-radius = top left, top right, bottom right, bottom left */
    border-radius: 20px 0 0 0; /* curves the top left */
    padding-left: 15px;
}

table th:last-child {
    border-radius: 0 20px 0 0; /* curves the top right */
}

This however will not work if this is done with table data (td) because it will add a curve onto each table row. This is not a problem if you only have 2 rows in your table but any additional ones will add curves onto the inner rows too. You only want these curves on the outside of the table. So for this, add an id to your last row. Then you can apply the curves to them.

/* curves the first tableData in the last row */

#lastRow td:first-child {
    border-radius: 0 0 0 20px; /* bottom left curve */
}

/* curves the last tableData in the last row */

#lastRow td:last-child {
    border-radius: 0 0 20px 0; /* bottom right curve */
}

Changing ViewPager to enable infinite page scrolling

All you need to do is look at the example here

You will find that in line 295 the page is always set to 1 so that it is scrollable and that the count of pages is 3 in getCount() method.

Those are the 2 main things you need to change, the rest is your logic and you can handle them differently.

Just make a personal counter that counts the real page you are on because position will no longer be usable after always setting current page to 1 on line 295.

javascript regex - look behind alternative?

Let's suppose you want to find all int not preceded by unsigned:

With support for negative look-behind:

(?<!unsigned )int

Without support for negative look-behind:

((?!unsigned ).{9}|^.{0,8})int

Basically idea is to grab n preceding characters and exclude match with negative look-ahead, but also match the cases where there's no preceeding n characters. (where n is length of look-behind).

So the regex in question:

(?<!filename)\.js$

would translate to:

((?!filename).{8}|^.{0,7})\.js$

You might need to play with capturing groups to find exact spot of the string that interests you or you want't to replace specific part with something else.

How do you assert that a certain exception is thrown in JUnit 4 tests?

To solve the same problem I did set up a small project: http://code.google.com/p/catch-exception/

Using this little helper you would write

This is less verbose than the ExpectedException rule of JUnit 4.7. In comparison to the solution provided by skaffman, you can specify in which line of code you expect the exception. I hope this helps.

Download a single folder or directory from a GitHub repo

If you are comfortable with unix commands, you don't need special dependencies or web apps for this. You can download the repo as a tarball and untar only what you need.

Example (woff2 files from a subdirectory in fontawesome):

curl -L https://api.github.com/repos/FortAwesome/Font-Awesome/tarball | tar xz --wildcards "*/web-fonts-with-css/webfonts/*.woff2" --strip-components=3
  • More about the link format: https://developer.github.com/v3/repos/contents/#get-archive-link (including how to get a zip file or specific branches/refs)
  • Keep the initial part of the path (*/) to match any directory. Github creates a wrapper directory with the commit ref in the name, so it can't be known.
  • You probably want --strip-components to be the same as the amount of slashes (/) in the path (previous argument).

This will download the whole tarball. Use the SVN method mentioned in the other answers if this has to be avoided or if you want to be nice to the GitHub servers.

Detect the Internet connection is offline?

window.navigator.onLine

is what you looking for, but few things here to add, first, if it's something on your app which you want to keep checking (like to see if the user suddenly go offline, which correct in this case most of the time, then you need to listen to change also), for that you add event listener to window to detect any change, for checking if the user goes offline, you can do:

window.addEventListener("offline", 
  ()=> console.log("No Internet")
);

and for checking if online:

window.addEventListener("online", 
  ()=> console.log("Connected Internet")
);

CodeIgniter: Load controller within controller

If you're interested, there's a well-established package out there that you can add to your Codeigniter project that will handle this:

https://bitbucket.org/wiredesignz/codeigniter-modular-extensions-hmvc/

Modular Extensions makes the CodeIgniter PHP framework modular. Modules are groups of independent components, typically model, controller and view, arranged in an application modules sub-directory, that can be dropped into other CodeIgniter applications.

OK, so the big change is that now you'd be using a modular structure - but to me this is desirable. I have used CI for about 3 years now, and can't imagine life without Modular Extensions.

Now, here's the part that deals with directly calling controllers for rendering view partials:

// Using a Module as a view partial from within a view is as easy as writing:
<?php echo modules::run('module/controller/method', $param1, $params2); ?>

That's all there is to it. I typically use this for loading little "widgets" like:

  • Event calendars
  • List of latest news articles
  • Newsletter signup forms
  • Polls

Typically I build a "widget" controller for each module and use it only for this purpose.

Your question was also one of my first questions when I started with Codeigniter. I hope this helps you out, even though it may be a bit more than you were looking for. I've been using MX ever since and haven't looked back.

Make sure to read the docs and check out the multitude of information regarding this package on the Codeigniter forums. Enjoy!

Difference between Constructor and ngOnInit

The article The essential difference between Constructor and ngOnInit in Angular explores the difference from multiple perspectives. This answer provides the most important difference explanation related to the component initialization process which also shows the different in usage.

Angular bootstrap process consists of the two major stages:

  • constructing components tree
  • running change detection

The constructor of the component is called when Angular constructs components tree. All lifecycle hooks are called as part of running change detection.

When Angular constructs components tree the root module injector is already configured so you can inject any global dependencies. Also, when Angular instantiates a child component class the injector for the parent component is also already set up so you can inject providers defined on the parent component including the parent component itself. Component constructors is the only method that is called in the context of the injector so if you need any dependency that's the only place to get those dependencies.

When Angular starts change detection the components tree is constructed and the constructors for all components in the tree have been called. Also every component's template nodes are added to the DOM. The @Input communication mechanism is processed during change detection so you cannot expect to have the properties available in the constructor. It will be available on after ngOnInit.

Let's see a quick example. Suppose you have the following template:

<my-app>
   <child-comp [i]='prop'>

So Angular starts bootstrapping the application. As I said it first creates classes for each component. So it calls MyAppComponent constructor. It also creates a DOM node which is the host element of the my-app component. Then it proceeds to creating a host element for the child-comp and calling ChildComponent constructor. At this stage it's not really concerned with the i input binding and any lifecycle hooks. So when this process is finished Angular ends up with the following tree of component views:

MyAppView
  - MyApp component instance
  - my-app host element data
       ChildCompnentView
         - ChildComponent component instance
         - child-comp host element data  

Only then runs change detection and updates bindings for the my-app and calls ngOnInit on the MyAppComponent class. Then it proceeds to updating the bindings for the child-comp and calls ngOnInit on the ChildComponent class.

You can do your initialization logic in either constructor or ngOnInit depending on what you need available. For example the article Here is how to get ViewContainerRef before @ViewChild query is evaluated shows what type of initialization logic can be required to be performed in the constructor.

Here are some articles that will help you understand the topic better:

Input placeholders for Internet Explorer

i use jquery.placeholderlabels. It's based on this and can be demoed here.

works in ie7, ie8, ie9.

behavior mimics current firefox and chrome behavior - where the the "placeholder" text remains visible on focus and only disappears once something is typed in the field.

dynamically add and remove view to viewpager

I did a similar program. hope this would help you.In its first activity four grid data can be selected. On the next activity, there is a view pager which contains two mandatory pages.And 4 more pages will be there, which will be visible corresponding to the grid data selected.

How to configure the web.config to allow requests of any length

I had a similar issue trying to deploy an ASP Web Application to IIS 8. To fix it I did as Matt and Leniel suggested above. But also had to configure the Authentication setting of my site to enable Anonymous Authentication. And that Worked for me.

How to make rounded percentages add up to 100%

Note: the selected answer is changing the array order which is not preferred, here I provide more different variations that achieving the same result and keeping the array in order

Discussion

given [98.88, .56, .56] how do you want to round it? you have four option

1- round things up and subtract what is added from the rest of the numbers, so the result becomes [98, 1, 1]

this could be a good answer, but what if we have [97.5, .5, .5, .5, .5, .5]? then you need to round it up to [95, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1]

do you see how it goes? if you add more 0-like numbers, you will lose more value from the rest of your numbers. this could be very troublesome when you have a big array of zero-like number like [40, .5, .5 , ... , .5]. when you round up this, you could end up with an array of ones: [1, 1, .... , 1]

so round-up isn't a good option.

2- you round down the numbers. so [98.88, .56, .56] becomes [98, 0, 0], then you are 2 less than 100. you ignore anything that is already 0, then add up the difference to the biggest numbers. so bigger numbers will get more.

3- same as previous, round down numbers, but you sort descending based on the decimals, divide up the diff based on the decimal, so biggest decimal will get the diff.

4- you round up, but you add what you added to the next number. so like a wave what you have added will be redirected to the end of your array. so [98.88, .56, .56] becomes [99, 0, 1]

none of these are ideal, so be mindful that your data is going to lose its shape.

here I provide a code for cases 2 and 3 (as case No.1 is not practical when you have a lot of zero-like numbers). it's modern Js and doesn't need any library to use

2nd case

const v1 = [13.626332, 47.989636, 9.596008, 28.788024];// => [ 14, 48, 9, 29 ]
const v2 = [16.666, 16.666, 16.666, 16.666, 16.666, 16.666] // => [ 17, 17, 17, 17, 16, 16 ] 
const v3 = [33.333, 33.333, 33.333] // => [ 34, 33, 33 ]
const v4 = [33.3, 33.3, 33.3, 0.1] // => [ 34, 33, 33, 0 ]
const v5 = [98.88, .56, .56] // =>[ 100, 0, 0 ]
const v6 = [97.5, .5, .5, .5, .5, .5] // => [ 100, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0 ]

const normalizePercentageByNumber = (input) => {
    const rounded: number[] = input.map(x => Math.floor(x));
    const afterRoundSum = rounded.reduce((pre, curr) => pre + curr, 0);
    const countMutableItems = rounded.filter(x => x >=1).length;
    const errorRate = 100 - afterRoundSum;
    
    const deductPortion = Math.ceil(errorRate / countMutableItems);
    
    const biggest = [...rounded].sort((a, b) => b - a).slice(0, Math.min(Math.abs(errorRate), countMutableItems));
    const result = rounded.map(x => {
        const indexOfX = biggest.indexOf(x);
        if (indexOfX >= 0) {
            x += deductPortion;
            console.log(biggest)
            biggest.splice(indexOfX, 1);
            return x;
        }
        return x;
    });
    return result;
}

3rd case

const normalizePercentageByDecimal = (input: number[]) => {

    const rounded= input.map((x, i) => ({number: Math.floor(x), decimal: x%1, index: i }));

    const decimalSorted= [...rounded].sort((a,b)=> b.decimal-a.decimal);
    
    const sum = rounded.reduce((pre, curr)=> pre + curr.number, 0) ;
    const error= 100-sum;
    
    for (let i = 0; i < error; i++) {
        const element = decimalSorted[i];
        element.number++;
    }

    const result= [...decimalSorted].sort((a,b)=> a.index-b.index);
    
    return result.map(x=> x.number);
}

4th case

you just need to calculate how much extra air added or deducted to your numbers on each roundup and, add or subtract it again in the next item.

const v1 = [13.626332, 47.989636, 9.596008, 28.788024];// => [14, 48, 10, 28 ]
const v2 = [16.666, 16.666, 16.666, 16.666, 16.666, 16.666] // => [17, 16, 17, 16, 17, 17]
const v3 = [33.333, 33.333, 33.333] // => [33, 34, 33]
const v4 = [33.3, 33.3, 33.3, 0.1] // => [33, 34, 33, 0]

const normalizePercentageByWave= v4.reduce((pre, curr, i, arr) => {

    let number = Math.round(curr + pre.decimal);
    let total = pre.total + number;

    const decimal = curr - number;

    if (i == arr.length - 1 && total < 100) {
        const diff = 100 - total;
        total += diff;
        number += diff;
    }

    return { total, numbers: [...pre.numbers, number], decimal };

}, { total: 0, numbers: [], decimal: 0 });

Android Lint contentDescription warning

Since I need the ImageView to add an icon just for aesthetics I've added tools:ignore="ContentDescription" within each ImageView I had in my xml file.

I'm no longer getting any error messages

How do I get the web page contents from a WebView?

I know this is a late answer, but I found this question because I had the same problem. I think I found the answer in this post on lexandera.com. The code below is basically a cut-and-paste from the site. It seems to do the trick.

final Context myApp = this;

/* An instance of this class will be registered as a JavaScript interface */
class MyJavaScriptInterface
{
    @JavascriptInterface
    @SuppressWarnings("unused")
    public void processHTML(String html)
    {
        // process the html as needed by the app
    }
}

final WebView browser = (WebView)findViewById(R.id.browser);
/* JavaScript must be enabled if you want it to work, obviously */
browser.getSettings().setJavaScriptEnabled(true);

/* Register a new JavaScript interface called HTMLOUT */
browser.addJavascriptInterface(new MyJavaScriptInterface(), "HTMLOUT");

/* WebViewClient must be set BEFORE calling loadUrl! */
browser.setWebViewClient(new WebViewClient() {
    @Override
    public void onPageFinished(WebView view, String url)
    {
        /* This call inject JavaScript into the page which just finished loading. */
        browser.loadUrl("javascript:window.HTMLOUT.processHTML('<head>'+document.getElementsByTagName('html')[0].innerHTML+'</head>');");
    }
});

/* load a web page */
browser.loadUrl("http://lexandera.com/files/jsexamples/gethtml.html");

C# How to change font of a label

I noticed there was not an actual full code answer, so as i come across this, i have created a function, that does change the font, which can be easily modified. I have tested this in

- XP SP3 and Win 10 Pro 64

private void SetFont(Form f, string name, int size, FontStyle style)
{
    Font replacementFont = new Font(name, size, style);
    f.Font = replacementFont;
}

Hint: replace Form to either Label, RichTextBox, TextBox, or any other relative control that uses fonts to change the font on them. By using the above function thus making it completely dynamic.

    /// To call the function do this.
    /// e.g in the form load event etc.

public Form1()
{
      InitializeComponent();
      SetFont(this, "Arial", 8, FontStyle.Bold);  
      // This sets the whole form and 
      // everything below it.
      // Shaun Cassidy.
}

You can also, if you want a full libary so you dont have to code all the back end bits, you can download my dll from Github.

Github DLL

/// and then import the namespace
using Droitech.TextFont;

/// Then call it using:
TextFontClass fClass = new TextFontClass();
fClass.SetFont(this, "Arial", 8, FontStyle.Bold);

Simple.

Selecting last element in JavaScript array

var arr = [1, 2, 3];
arr.slice(-1).pop(); // return 3 and arr = [1, 2, 3]

This will return undefined if the array is empty and this will not change the value of the array.

Google Maps API: open url by clicking on marker

If anyone wants to add an URL on a single marker which not require for loops, here is how it goes:

if ($('#googleMap').length) {
    var initialize = function() {
        var mapOptions = {
            zoom: 15,
            scrollwheel: false,
            center: new google.maps.LatLng(45.725788, -73.5120818),
            styles: [{
                stylers: [{
                    saturation: -100
                }]
            }]
        };
        var map = new google.maps.Map(document.getElementById("googleMap"), mapOptions);
        var marker = new google.maps.Marker({
            position: map.getCenter(),
            animation: google.maps.Animation.BOUNCE,
            icon: 'example-marker.png',
            map: map,
            url: 'https://example.com'
        });

        //Add an url to the marker
    google.maps.event.addListener(marker, 'click', function() {
        window.location.href = this.url;
    });
    }
    // Add the map initialize function to the window load function
    google.maps.event.addDomListener(window, "load", initialize);
}

PHP file_get_contents() returns "failed to open stream: HTTP request failed!"

I got a similar problem.

Due to timeout !

Timeout can be indicated like this :

$options = array(
    'http' => array(
        'header'  => "Content-type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded\r\n",
        'method'  => "POST",
        'content' => http_build_query($data2),
        'timeout' => 30,
    ),
);
$context = stream_context_create($options); $retour =
$retour = @file_get_contents("http://xxxxx.xxx/xxxx", false, $context);

HorizontalAlignment=Stretch, MaxWidth, and Left aligned at the same time?

Both answers given worked for the problem I stated -- Thanks!

In my real application though, I was trying to constrain a panel inside of a ScrollViewer and Kent's method didn't handle that very well for some reason I didn't bother to track down. Basically the controls could expand beyond the MaxWidth setting and defeated my intent.

Nir's technique worked well and didn't have the problem with the ScrollViewer, though there is one minor thing to watch out for. You want to be sure the right and left margins on the TextBox are set to 0 or they'll get in the way. I also changed the binding to use ViewportWidth instead of ActualWidth to avoid issues when the vertical scrollbar appeared.

Java 8 lambda get and remove element from list

As others have suggested, this might be a use case for loops and iterables. In my opinion, this is the simplest approach. If you want to modify the list in-place, it cannot be considered "real" functional programming anyway. But you could use Collectors.partitioningBy() in order to get a new list with elements which satisfy your condition, and a new list of those which don't. Of course with this approach, if you have multiple elements satisfying the condition, all of those will be in that list and not only the first.

Exit/save edit to sudoers file? Putty SSH

The tutorial you saw was telling you how to exit nano editor. By typing Ctrl+X nano exits and if your file needs change you will be prompted to save the changes in which case to save you should press Y and then enter to save changes in the same file you open.

If you are not using any gui and you just want to leave the shell the command is Ctrl+D.

Regarding tutorial, The Linux Documentation Project would be a good place to start. If you like books I would recommend by far any book you want from O'Reilly. They have nice cd bookshelfs with good compilation for any linux sysadmin, and without much effort you can find many places where those html bookshelfs are available to read online.

How to list the files in current directory?

Try this,to retrieve all files inside folder and sub-folder

public static void main(String[]args)
    {
        File curDir = new File(".");
        getAllFiles(curDir);
    }
    private static void getAllFiles(File curDir) {

        File[] filesList = curDir.listFiles();
        for(File f : filesList){
            if(f.isDirectory())
                getAllFiles(f);
            if(f.isFile()){
                System.out.println(f.getName());
            }
        }

    }

To retrieve files/folder only

public static void main(String[]args)
    {
        File curDir = new File(".");
        getAllFiles(curDir);
    }
    private static void getAllFiles(File curDir) {

        File[] filesList = curDir.listFiles();
        for(File f : filesList){
            if(f.isDirectory())
                System.out.println(f.getName());
            if(f.isFile()){
                System.out.println(f.getName());
            }
        }

    }

How to call a function from a string stored in a variable?

Dynamic function names and namespaces

Just to add a point about dynamic function names when using namespaces.

If you're using namespaces, the following won't work except if your function is in the global namespace:

namespace greetings;

function hello()
{
    // do something
}

$myvar = "hello";
$myvar(); // interpreted as "\hello();"

What to do?

You have to use call_user_func() instead:

// if hello() is in the current namespace
call_user_func(__NAMESPACE__.'\\'.$myvar);

// if hello() is in another namespace
call_user_func('mynamespace\\'.$myvar);

How do I create a new column from the output of pandas groupby().sum()?

How do I create a new column with Groupby().Sum()?

There are two ways - one straightforward and the other slightly more interesting.


Everybody's Favorite: GroupBy.transform() with 'sum'

@Ed Chum's answer can be simplified, a bit. Call DataFrame.groupby rather than Series.groupby. This results in simpler syntax.

# The setup.
df[['Date', 'Data3']]

         Date  Data3
0  2015-05-08      5
1  2015-05-07      8
2  2015-05-06      6
3  2015-05-05      1
4  2015-05-08     50
5  2015-05-07    100
6  2015-05-06     60
7  2015-05-05    120

df.groupby('Date')['Data3'].transform('sum')

0     55
1    108
2     66
3    121
4     55
5    108
6     66
7    121
Name: Data3, dtype: int64 

It's a tad faster,

df2 = pd.concat([df] * 12345)

%timeit df2['Data3'].groupby(df['Date']).transform('sum')
%timeit df2.groupby('Date')['Data3'].transform('sum')

10.4 ms ± 367 µs per loop (mean ± std. dev. of 7 runs, 100 loops each)
8.58 ms ± 559 µs per loop (mean ± std. dev. of 7 runs, 100 loops each)

Unconventional, but Worth your Consideration: GroupBy.sum() + Series.map()

I stumbled upon an interesting idiosyncrasy in the API. From what I tell, you can reproduce this on any major version over 0.20 (I tested this on 0.23 and 0.24). It seems like you consistently can shave off a few milliseconds of the time taken by transform if you instead use a direct function of GroupBy and broadcast it using map:

df.Date.map(df.groupby('Date')['Data3'].sum())

0     55
1    108
2     66
3    121
4     55
5    108
6     66
7    121
Name: Date, dtype: int64

Compare with

df.groupby('Date')['Data3'].transform('sum')

0     55
1    108
2     66
3    121
4     55
5    108
6     66
7    121
Name: Data3, dtype: int64

My tests show that map is a bit faster if you can afford to use the direct GroupBy function (such as mean, min, max, first, etc). It is more or less faster for most general situations upto around ~200 thousand records. After that, the performance really depends on the data.

(Left: v0.23, Right: v0.24)

Nice alternative to know, and better if you have smaller frames with smaller numbers of groups. . . but I would recommend transform as a first choice. Thought this was worth sharing anyway.

Benchmarking code, for reference:

import perfplot

perfplot.show(
    setup=lambda n: pd.DataFrame({'A': np.random.choice(n//10, n), 'B': np.ones(n)}),
    kernels=[
        lambda df: df.groupby('A')['B'].transform('sum'),
        lambda df:  df.A.map(df.groupby('A')['B'].sum()),
    ],
    labels=['GroupBy.transform', 'GroupBy.sum + map'],
    n_range=[2**k for k in range(5, 20)],
    xlabel='N',
    logy=True,
    logx=True
)

How do I pass a string into subprocess.Popen (using the stdin argument)?

p = Popen(['grep', 'f'], stdout=PIPE, stdin=PIPE, stderr=STDOUT)    
p.stdin.write('one\n')
time.sleep(0.5)
p.stdin.write('two\n')
time.sleep(0.5)
p.stdin.write('three\n')
time.sleep(0.5)
testresult = p.communicate()[0]
time.sleep(0.5)
print(testresult)

Prepare for Segue in Swift

override func prepareForSegue(segue: UIStoryboardSegue?, sender: AnyObject?) {
        if(segue!.identifier){
            var name = segue!.identifier;
            if (name.compare("Load View") == 0){

            }
        }
    }

You can't compare the the identifier with == you have to use the compare() method

String replacement in batch file

You can use the following little trick:

set word=table
set str="jump over the chair"
call set str=%%str:chair=%word%%%
echo %str%

The call there causes another layer of variable expansion, making it necessary to quote the original % signs but it all works out in the end.

Java 8, Streams to find the duplicate elements

I think I have good solution how to fix problem like this - List => List with grouping by Something.a & Something.b. There is extended definition:

public class Test {

    public static void test() {

        class A {
            private int a;
            private int b;

Attempt to set a non-property-list object as an NSUserDefaults

Swift 3 Solution

Simple utility class

class ArchiveUtil {

    private static let PeopleKey = "PeopleKey"

    private static func archivePeople(people : [Human]) -> NSData {

        return NSKeyedArchiver.archivedData(withRootObject: people as NSArray) as NSData
    }

    static func loadPeople() -> [Human]? {

        if let unarchivedObject = UserDefaults.standard.object(forKey: PeopleKey) as? Data {

            return NSKeyedUnarchiver.unarchiveObject(with: unarchivedObject as Data) as? [Human]
        }

        return nil
    }

    static func savePeople(people : [Human]?) {

        let archivedObject = archivePeople(people: people!)
        UserDefaults.standard.set(archivedObject, forKey: PeopleKey)
        UserDefaults.standard.synchronize()
    }

}

Model Class

class Human: NSObject, NSCoding {

    var name:String?
    var age:Int?

    required init(n:String, a:Int) {

        name = n
        age = a
    }


    required init(coder aDecoder: NSCoder) {

        name = aDecoder.decodeObject(forKey: "name") as? String
        age = aDecoder.decodeInteger(forKey: "age")
    }


    public func encode(with aCoder: NSCoder) {

        aCoder.encode(name, forKey: "name")

How to call

var people = [Human]()

people.append(Human(n: "Sazzad", a: 21))

people.append(Human(n: "Khan", a: 23))

ArchiveUtil.savePeople(people: people)

let others = ArchiveUtil.loadPeople()

for human in others! {

    print("name = \(human.name!), age = \(human.age!)")
}

Gaussian filter in MATLAB

You first create the filter with fspecial and then convolve the image with the filter using imfilter (which works on multidimensional images as in the example).

You specify sigma and hsize in fspecial.

Code:

%%# Read an image
I = imread('peppers.png');
%# Create the gaussian filter with hsize = [5 5] and sigma = 2
G = fspecial('gaussian',[5 5],2);
%# Filter it
Ig = imfilter(I,G,'same');
%# Display
imshow(Ig)

how to git commit a whole folder?

When you “add” something in Git, you add it to the staging area. When you commit, you then commit what’s in the staging area, meaning it’s possible to commit only a sub-set of changed files at any one time.

In your case, you want to add the folder to the staging area, and then just do a normal commit:

$ git add foldername
$ git commit -m 'Helpful commit message'

Selecting only numeric columns from a data frame

If you have many factor variables, you can use select_if funtion. install the dplyr packages. There are many function that separates data by satisfying a condition. you can set the conditions.

Use like this.

categorical<-select_if(df,is.factor)
str(categorical)

<xsl:variable> Print out value of XSL variable using <xsl:value-of>

Your main problem is thinking that the variable you declared outside of the template is the same variable being "set" inside the choose statement. This is not how XSLT works, the variable cannot be reassigned. This is something more like what you want:

<xsl:template match="class">
  <xsl:copy><xsl:apply-templates select="@*|node()"/></xsl:copy>
  <xsl:variable name="subexists">
    <xsl:choose>
      <xsl:when test="joined-subclass">true</xsl:when>
      <xsl:otherwise>false</xsl:otherwise>
    </xsl:choose>
  </xsl:variable>
  subexists:      <xsl:value-of select="$subexists" />
</xsl:template>

And if you need the variable to have "global" scope then declare it outside of the template:

<xsl:variable name="subexists">
  <xsl:choose>
     <xsl:when test="/path/to/node/joined-subclass">true</xsl:when>
     <xsl:otherwise>false</xsl:otherwise>
  </xsl:choose>
</xsl:variable>

<xsl:template match="class">
   subexists:      <xsl:value-of select="$subexists" />
</xsl:template>

How do you embed binary data in XML?

If you have control over the XML format, you should turn the problem inside out. Rather than attaching the binary XML you should think about how to enclose a document that has multiple parts, one of which contains XML.

The traditional solution to this is an archive (e.g. tar). But if you want to keep your enclosing document in a text-based format or if you don't have access to an file archiving library, there is also a standardized scheme that is used heavily in email and HTTP which is multipart/* MIME with Content-Transfer-Encoding: binary.

For example if your servers communicate through HTTP and you want to send a multipart document, the primary being an XML document which refers to a binary data, the HTTP communication might look something like this:

POST / HTTP/1.1
Content-Type: multipart/related; boundary="qd43hdi34udh34id344"
... other headers elided ...

--qd43hdi34udh34id344
Content-Type: application/xml

<myxml>
    <data href="cid:data.bin"/>
</myxml>
--qd43hdi34udh34id344
Content-Id: <data.bin>
Content-type: application/octet-stream
Content-Transfer-Encoding: binary

... binary data ...
--qd43hdi34udh34id344--

As in above example, the XML refer to the binary data in the enclosing multipart by using a cid URI scheme which is an identifier to the Content-Id header. The overhead of this scheme would be just the MIME header. A similar scheme can also be used for HTTP response. Of course in HTTP protocol, you also have the option of sending a multipart document into separate request/response.

If you want to avoid wrapping your data in a multipart is to use data URI:

<myxml>
    <data href="data:application/something;charset=utf-8;base64,dGVzdGRhdGE="/>
</myxml>

But this has the base64 overhead.

C# password TextBox in a ASP.net website

I think this is what you are looking for

 <asp:TextBox ID="txbPass" runat="server" TextMode="Password"></asp:TextBox>

href="javascript:" vs. href="javascript:void(0)"

This method seems ok in all browsers, if you set the onclick with a jQuery event:

<a href="javascript:;">Click me!</a>

As said before, href="#" with change the url hash and can trigger data re/load if you use a History (or ba-bbq) JS plugin.

Create a remote branch on GitHub

Before creating a new branch always the best practice is to have the latest of repo in your local machine. Follow these steps for error free branch creation.

 1. $ git branch (check which branches exist and which one is currently active (prefixed with *). This helps you avoid creating duplicate/confusing branch name)
 2. $ git branch <new_branch> (creates new branch)
 3. $ git checkout new_branch
 4. $ git add . (After making changes in the current branch)
 5. $ git commit -m "type commit msg here"
 6. $ git checkout master (switch to master branch so that merging with new_branch can be done)
 7. $ git merge new_branch (starts merging)
 8. $ git push origin master (push to the remote server)

I referred this blog and I found it to be a cleaner approach.

how to add value to combobox item

If you want to use SelectedValue then your combobox must be databound.

To set up the combobox:

ComboBox1.DataSource = GetMailItems()
ComboBox1.DisplayMember = "Name"
ComboBox1.ValueMember = "ID"

To get the data:

Function GetMailItems() As List(Of MailItem)

    Dim mailItems = New List(Of MailItem)

    Command = New MySqlCommand("SELECT * FROM `maillist` WHERE l_id = '" & id & "'", connection)
    Command.CommandTimeout = 30
    Reader = Command.ExecuteReader()

    If Reader.HasRows = True Then
        While Reader.Read()
            mailItems.Add(New MailItem(Reader("ID"), Reader("name")))
        End While
    End If

    Return mailItems

End Function

Public Class MailItem

    Public Sub New(ByVal id As Integer, ByVal name As String)
        mID = id
        mName = name
    End Sub

    Private mID As Integer
    Public Property ID() As Integer
        Get
            Return mID
        End Get
        Set(ByVal value As Integer)
            mID = value
        End Set
    End Property

    Private mName As String
    Public Property Name() As String
        Get
            Return mName
        End Get
        Set(ByVal value As String)
            mName = value
        End Set
    End Property

End Class

"Operation must use an updateable query" error in MS Access

Whether this answer is universally true or not, I don't know, but I solved this by altering my query slightly.

Rather than joining a select query to a table and processing it, I changed the select query to create a temporary table. I then used that temporary table to the real table and it all worked perfectly.

NPM doesn't install module dependencies

Another way to work this around is to add this into your module package.json scripts section

"preinstall": "npm install {Packages You depend on}"

what this will does is, it will install all packages needed by the module and you won't get that error.

Extract digits from string - StringUtils Java

Just one line:

int value = Integer.parseInt(string.replaceAll("[^0-9]", ""));

Can Console.Clear be used to only clear a line instead of whole console?

Description

You can use the Console.SetCursorPosition function to go to a specific line number. Than you can use this function to clear the line

public static void ClearCurrentConsoleLine()
{
    int currentLineCursor = Console.CursorTop;
    Console.SetCursorPosition(0, Console.CursorTop);
    Console.Write(new string(' ', Console.WindowWidth)); 
    Console.SetCursorPosition(0, currentLineCursor);
}

Sample

Console.WriteLine("Test");
Console.SetCursorPosition(0, Console.CursorTop - 1);
ClearCurrentConsoleLine();
