How to save username and password with Mercurial?

While it may or may not work in your situation, I have found it useful to generate a public / private key using Putty's Pageant.

If you are also working with bitbucket (.org) it should give you the ability to provide a public key to your user account and then commands that reach out to the repository will be secured automatically.

If Pageant doesn't start up for you upon a reboot, you can add a shortcut to Pageant to your Windows "Start menu" and the shortcut may need to have a 'properties' populated with the location of your private (.ppk) file.

With this in place Mercurial and your local repositories will need to be set up to push/pull using the SSH format.

Here are some detailed instructions on Atlassian's site for Windows OR Mac/Linux.

You don't have to take my word for it and there are no doubt other ways to do it. Perhaps these steps described here are more for you:

Start PuttyGen from Start -> PuTTY-> PuttyGen

Generate a new key and save it as a .ppk file without a passphrase

Use Putty to login to the server you want to connect to

Append the Public Key text from PuttyGen to the text of ~/.ssh/authorized_keys

Create a shortcut to your .ppk file from Start -> Putty to Start -> Startup

Select the .ppk shortcut from the Startup menu (this will happen automatically at every startup)

See the Pageant icon in the system tray? Right-click it and select “New session”

Enter username@hostname in the “Host name” field

You will now log in automatically.

Auto submit form on page load

You can submit any form automatically on page load simply by adding a snippet of javascript code to your body tag referencing the form name like this....

<body onload="document.form1.submit()">

error: command 'gcc' failed with exit status 1 while installing eventlet

For openSUSE 42.1 Leap Linux use this

sudo zypper install python3-devel

Found conflicts between different versions of the same dependent assembly that could not be resolved

As stated in dotnet CLI issue 6583 the issue should be solved with dotnet nuget locals --clear all command.

Create a file from a ByteArrayOutputStream

You can use a FileOutputStream for this.

FileOutputStream fos = null;
try {
    fos = new FileOutputStream(new File("myFile")); 
    ByteArrayOutputStream baos = new ByteArrayOutputStream();

    // Put data in your baos

    baos.writeTo(fos);
} catch(IOException ioe) {
    // Handle exception here
    ioe.printStackTrace();
} finally {
    fos.close();
}

Fatal error: iostream: No such file or directory in compiling C program using GCC

Neither <iostream> nor <iostream.h> are standard C header files. Your code is meant to be C++, where <iostream> is a valid header. Use g++ (and a .cpp file extension) for C++ code.

Alternatively, this program uses mostly constructs that are available in C anyway. It's easy enough to convert the entire program to compile using a C compiler. Simply remove #include <iostream> and using namespace std;, and replace cout << endl; with putchar('\n');... I advise compiling using C99 (eg. gcc -std=c99)

Tuple unpacking in for loops

[i for i in enumerate(['a','b','c'])]

Result:

[(0, 'a'), (1, 'b'), (2, 'c')]

What does if [ $? -eq 0 ] mean for shell scripts?

$? is the exit status of the most recently-executed command; by convention, 0 means success and anything else indicates failure. That line is testing whether the grep command succeeded.

The grep manpage states:

The exit status is 0 if selected lines are found, and 1 if not found. If an error occurred the exit status is 2. (Note: POSIX error handling code should check for '2' or greater.)

So in this case it's checking whether any ERROR lines were found.

JavaScript: Difference between .forEach() and .map()

Diffrence between Foreach & map :

Map() : If you use map then map can return new array by iterating main array.

Foreach() : If you use Foreach then it can not return anything for each can iterating main array.

How to create Temp table with SELECT * INTO tempTable FROM CTE Query

Select      Eventname, 
            count(Eventname) as 'Counts'

FROM        tblevent
where       Eventname like 'A%'
Group by    Eventname
order by    count(Eventname)

Here by using the into clause the table is directly created

How to print time in format: 2009-08-10 18:17:54.811

The above answers do not fully answer the question (specifically the millisec part). My solution to this is to use gettimeofday before strftime. Note the care to avoid rounding millisec to "1000". This is based on Hamid Nazari's answer.

#include <stdio.h>
#include <sys/time.h>
#include <time.h>
#include <math.h>

int main() {
  char buffer[26];
  int millisec;
  struct tm* tm_info;
  struct timeval tv;

  gettimeofday(&tv, NULL);

  millisec = lrint(tv.tv_usec/1000.0); // Round to nearest millisec
  if (millisec>=1000) { // Allow for rounding up to nearest second
    millisec -=1000;
    tv.tv_sec++;
  }

  tm_info = localtime(&tv.tv_sec);

  strftime(buffer, 26, "%Y:%m:%d %H:%M:%S", tm_info);
  printf("%s.%03d\n", buffer, millisec);

  return 0;
}

Make ABC Ordered List Items Have Bold Style

Are you sure you correctly applied the styles, or that there isn't another stylesheet interfering with your lists? I tried this:

<ol type="A">
<li><span class="label">Text</span></li>
<li><span class="label">Text</span></li>
<li><span class="label">Text</span></li>
</ol>

Then in the stylesheet:

ol {font-weight: bold;}
ol li span.label {font-weight:normal;}

And it bolded the A, B, C etc and not the text.

(Tested it in Opera 9.6, FF 3, Safari 3.2 and IE 7)

How to set Python's default version to 3.x on OS X?

I'm a little late to the game on this one, but I thought I should post an updated answer since I just encountered this issue for myself. Please note that this will only apply to a Mac-based setup (I haven't tried it with Windows or any flavor of Linux).

The simplest way to get this working is to install Python via Brew. If you don't have brew installed, you will need to do that first. Once installed, do the following in at the terminal:

brew install python

This will install Python 3. After it's installed, run this:

ls -l /usr/local/bin/python*

You will see all of the links created by brew to its Python install. It will look something like this:

lrwxr-xr-x  1 username  admin  36 Oct  1 13:35 /usr/local/bin/python3@ -> ../Cellar/python/3.7.4_1/bin/python3
lrwxr-xr-x  1 username  admin  43 Oct  1 13:35 /usr/local/bin/python3-config@ -> ../Cellar/python/3.7.4_1/bin/python3-config
lrwxr-xr-x  1 username  admin  38 Oct  1 13:35 /usr/local/bin/python3.7@ -> ../Cellar/python/3.7.4_1/bin/python3.7
lrwxr-xr-x  1 username  admin  45 Oct  1 13:35 /usr/local/bin/python3.7-config@ -> ../Cellar/python/3.7.4_1/bin/python3.7-config
lrwxr-xr-x  1 username  admin  39 Oct  1 13:35 /usr/local/bin/python3.7m@ -> ../Cellar/python/3.7.4_1/bin/python3.7m
lrwxr-xr-x  1 username  admin  46 Oct  1 13:35 /usr/local/bin/python3.7m-config@ -> ../Cellar/python/3.7.4_1/bin/python3.7m-config

The first row in this example shows the python3 symlink. To set it as the default python symlink run the following:

ln -s -f /usr/local/bin/python3 /usr/local/bin/python

Once set, you can do:

which python

and it should show:

/usr/local/bin/python

You will have to reload your current terminal shell for it to use the new symlink in that shell, however, all newly opened shell sessions will (should) automatically use it. To test this, open a new terminal shell and run the following:

python --version

Remove border from IFrame

<iframe src="URL" frameborder="0" width="100%" height="200">

(OR)

<iframe src="URL" width="100%" height="300" style="border: none">Your browser 
does not support iframes.</iframe>

The <iframe> frameborder attribute is not supported in HTML5. Use CSS 
instead.

Creating columns in listView and add items

            listView1.View = View.Details;
        listView1.Columns.Add("Target No.", 83, HorizontalAlignment.Center);
        listView1.Columns.Add("   Range   ", 100, HorizontalAlignment.Center);
        listView1.Columns.Add(" Azimuth ", 100, HorizontalAlignment.Center);

i also had same problem .. i drag column to left .. but now ok .. so let's say i have 283*196 size of listview ..... We declared in the column width -2 for auto width .. For fitting in the listview ,we can divide listview width into 3 parts (83,100,100) ...

Changing directory in Google colab (breaking out of the python interpreter)

As others have pointed out, the cd command needs to start with a percentage sign:

%cd SwitchFrequencyAnalysis

Difference between `%` and `!`

Google Colab seems to inherit these syntaxes from Jupyter (which inherits them from IPython). Jake VanderPlas explains this IPython behaviour here. You can see the excerpt below.

If you play with IPython's shell commands for a while, you might notice that you cannot use !cd to navigate the filesystem:
In [11]: !pwd 
/home/jake/projects/myproject

In [12]: !cd ..

In [13]: !pwd 
/home/jake/projects/myproject 
The reason is that shell commands in the notebook are executed in a temporary subshell. If you'd like to change the working directory in a more enduring way, you can use the %cd magic command:
In [14]: %cd ..
/home/jake/projects

Another way to look at this: you need % because changing directory is relevant to the environment of the current notebook but not to the entire server runtime.

In general, use ! if the command is one that's okay to run in a separate shell. Use % if the command needs to be run on the specific notebook.

Counting number of characters in a file through shell script

#!/bin/sh

wc -m $1 | awk '{print $1}'

wc -m counts the number of characters; the awk command prints the number of characters only, omitting the filename.

wc -c would give you the number of bytes (which can be different to the number of characters, as depending on the encoding you may have a character encoded on several bytes).

Get Selected value of a Combobox

You can use the below change event to which will trigger when the combobox value will change.

Private Sub ComboBox1_Change()
'your code here

Also you can get the selected value using below

ComboBox1.Value

Is there a way to make a PowerShell script work by double clicking a .ps1 file?

In Windows 10 you might also want to delete Windows Explorer's override for file extension association:

ICommand MVVM implementation

I've just created a little example showing how to implement commands in convention over configuration style. However it requires Reflection.Emit() to be available. The supporting code may seem a little weird but once written it can be used many times.

Teaser:

public class SampleViewModel: BaseViewModelStub
{
    public string Name { get; set; }

    [UiCommand]
    public void HelloWorld()
    {
        MessageBox.Show("Hello World!");
    }

    [UiCommand]
    public void Print()
    {
        MessageBox.Show(String.Concat("Hello, ", Name, "!"), "SampleViewModel");
    }

    public bool CanPrint()
    {
        return !String.IsNullOrEmpty(Name);
    }
}

}

UPDATE: now there seem to exist some libraries like http://www.codeproject.com/Articles/101881/Executing-Command-Logic-in-a-View-Model that solve the problem of ICommand boilerplate code.

jQuery UI Accordion Expand/Collapse All

Here's the code by Sinetheta converted to a jQuery plugin: Save below code to a js file.

$.fn.collapsible = function() {
    $(this).addClass("ui-accordion ui-widget ui-helper-reset");
    var headers = $(this).children("h3");
    headers.addClass("accordion-header ui-accordion-header ui-helper-reset ui-state-active ui-accordion-icons ui-corner-all");
    headers.append('<span class="ui-accordion-header-icon ui-icon ui-icon-triangle-1-s">');
    headers.click(function() {
        var header = $(this);
        var panel = $(this).next();
        var isOpen = panel.is(":visible");
        if(isOpen)  {
            panel.slideUp("fast", function() {
                panel.hide();
                header.removeClass("ui-state-active")
                    .addClass("ui-state-default")
                    .children("span").removeClass("ui-icon-triangle-1-s")
                        .addClass("ui-icon-triangle-1-e");
          });
        }
        else {
            panel.slideDown("fast", function() {
                panel.show();
                header.removeClass("ui-state-default")
                    .addClass("ui-state-active")
                    .children("span").removeClass("ui-icon-triangle-1-e")
                        .addClass("ui-icon-triangle-1-s");
          });
        }
    });
};

Refer it in your UI page and call similar to jQuery accordian call:

$("#accordion").collapsible();

Looks cleaner and avoids any classes to be added to the markup.

Function to convert column number to letter?

Here, a simple function in Pascal (Delphi).

function GetColLetterFromNum(Sheet : Variant; Col : Integer) : String;
begin
  Result := Sheet.Columns[Col].Address;  // from Col=100 --> '$CV:$CV'
  Result := Copy(Result, 2, Pos(':', Result) - 2);
end;

Connecting client to server using Socket.io

You need to make sure that you add forward slash before your link to socket.io:

<script src="/socket.io/socket.io.js"></script>

Then in the view/controller just do:

var socket = io.connect()

That should solve your problem.

Difference between & and && in Java?

& is bitwise AND operator comparing bits of each operand.
For example,

int a = 4;
int b = 7;
System.out.println(a & b); // prints 4
//meaning in an 32 bit system
// 00000000 00000000 00000000 00000100
// 00000000 00000000 00000000 00000111
// ===================================
// 00000000 00000000 00000000 00000100

&& is logical AND operator comparing boolean values of operands only. It takes two operands indicating a boolean value and makes a lazy evaluation on them.

Tomcat view catalina.out log file

Just be aware also that catalina.out can be renamed - it can be set in /bin/catalina.sh with the CATALINA_OUT environment variable.

Do the parentheses after the type name make a difference with new?

The rules for new are analogous to what happens when you initialize an object with automatic storage duration (although, because of vexing parse, the syntax can be slightly different).

If I say:

int my_int; // default-initialize ? indeterminate (non-class type)

Then my_int has an indeterminate value, since it is a non-class type. Alternatively, I can value-initialize my_int (which, for non-class types, zero-initializes) like this:

int my_int{}; // value-initialize ? zero-initialize (non-class type)

(Of course, I can't use () because that would be a function declaration, but int() works the same as int{} to construct a temporary.)

Whereas, for class types:

Thing my_thing; // default-initialize ? default ctor (class type)
Thing my_thing{}; // value-initialize ? default-initialize ? default ctor (class type)

The default constructor is called to create a Thing, no exceptions.

So, the rules are more or less:

Is it a class type?
- YES: The default constructor is called, regardless of whether it is value-initialized (with {}) or default-initialized (without {}). (There is some additional prior zeroing behavior with value-initialization, but the default constructor is always given the final say.)
- NO: Were {} used?
  - YES: The object is value-initialized, which, for non-class types, more or less just zero-initializes.
  - NO: The object is default-initialized, which, for non-class types, leaves it with an indeterminate value (it effectively isn't initialized).

These rules translate precisely to new syntax, with the added rule that () can be substituted for {} because new is never parsed as a function declaration. So:

int* my_new_int = new int; // default-initialize ? indeterminate (non-class type)
Thing* my_new_thing = new Thing; // default-initialize ? default ctor (class type)
int* my_new_zeroed_int = new int(); // value-initialize ? zero-initialize (non-class type)
     my_new_zeroed_int = new int{}; // ditto
       my_new_thing = new Thing(); // value-initialize ? default-initialize ? default ctor (class type)

(This answer incorporates conceptual changes in C++11 that the top answer currently does not; notably, a new scalar or POD instance that would end up an with indeterminate value is now technically now default-initialized (which, for POD types, technically calls a trivial default constructor). While this does not cause much practical change in behavior, it does simplify the rules somewhat.)

RadioGroup: How to check programmatically

I prefer to use

RadioButton b = (RadioButton) findViewById(R.id.option1);
b.performClick();

instead of using the accepted answer.

RadioButton b = (RadioButton) findViewById(R.id.option1);
b.setChecked(true);

The reason is setChecked(true) only changes the checked state of radio button. It does not trigger the onClick() method added to your radio button. Sometimes this might waste your time to debug why the action related to onClick() not working.

How do I copy folder with files to another folder in Unix/Linux?

The option you're looking for is -R.

cp -R path_to_source path_to_destination/

If destination doesn't exist, it will be created.
-R means copy directories recursively. You can also use -r since it's case-insensitive.
Note the nuances with adding the trailing / as per @muni764's comment.

How to copy from CSV file to PostgreSQL table with headers in CSV file?

Alternative by terminal with no permission

The pg documentation at NOTES say

The path will be interpreted relative to the working directory of the server process (normally the cluster's data directory), not the client's working directory.

So, gerally, using psql or any client, even in a local server, you have problems ... And, if you're expressing COPY command for other users, eg. at a Github README, the reader will have problems ...

The only way to express relative path with client permissions is using STDIN,

When STDIN or STDOUT is specified, data is transmitted via the connection between the client and the server.

as remembered here:

psql -h remotehost -d remote_mydb -U myuser -c \
   "copy mytable (column1, column2) from STDIN with delimiter as ','" \
   < ./relative_path/file.csv

What is the best java image processing library/approach?

imo the best approach is using GraphicsMagick Image Processing System with im4java as a comand-line interface for Java.

There are a lot of advantages of GraphicsMagick, but one for all:

How can I check if a value is a json object?

You should return json always, but change its status, or in following example the ResponseCode property:

if(callbackResults.ResponseCode!="200"){
    /* Some error, you can add a message too */
} else {
    /* All fine, proceed with code */
};

Is there a better way to iterate over two lists, getting one element from each list for each iteration?

Good to see lots of love for zip in the answers here.

However it should be noted that if you are using a python version before 3.0, the itertools module in the standard library contains an izip function which returns an iterable, which is more appropriate in this case (especially if your list of latt/longs is quite long).

In python 3 and later zip behaves like izip.

How to correctly close a feature branch in Mercurial?

One way is to just leave merged feature branches open (and inactive):

$ hg up default
$ hg merge feature-x
$ hg ci -m merge

$ hg heads
    (1 head)

$ hg branches
default    43:...
feature-x  41:...
    (2 branches)

$ hg branches -a
default    43:...
    (1 branch)

Another way is to close a feature branch before merging using an extra commit:

$ hg up feature-x
$ hg ci -m 'Closed branch feature-x' --close-branch
$ hg up default
$ hg merge feature-x
$ hg ci -m merge

$ hg heads
    (1 head)

$ hg branches
default    43:...
    (1 branch)

The first one is simpler, but it leaves an open branch. The second one leaves no open heads/branches, but it requires one more auxiliary commit. One may combine the last actual commit to the feature branch with this extra commit using --close-branch, but one should know in advance which commit will be the last one.

Update: Since Mercurial 1.5 you can close the branch at any time so it will not appear in both hg branches and hg heads anymore. The only thing that could possibly annoy you is that technically the revision graph will still have one more revision without childen.

Update 2: Since Mercurial 1.8 bookmarks have become a core feature of Mercurial. Bookmarks are more convenient for branching than named branches. See also this question:

How do I vertically center text with CSS?

The simple and versatile way is (as Michielvoo's table approach):

[ctrv]{
    display:table !important;
}

[ctrv] > *{ /* adressing direct discendents */
      display: table-cell;
      vertical-align: middle;
      // text-align: center; /* optional */
}

Using this attribute (or a equivalent class) on a parent tag works even for many children to align:

<parent ctrv>  <ch1/>  <ch2/>   </parent>

How do I restart a service on a remote machine in Windows?

Several good solutions here. If you're still on Win2K and can't install anything on the remote computer, this also works:

Open the Computer Management Console (right click My Computer, choose Manage; open from Administrative Tools in the Start Menu; or open from the MMC using the snap-in).

Right click on your computer name and choose "Connect to Remote Computer"

Put in the computer name and credentials and you have full access to many admin functions including the services control panel.

Ruby replace string with captured regex pattern

Try '\1' for the replacement (single quotes are important, otherwise you need to escape the \):

"foo".gsub(/(o+)/, '\1\1\1')
#=> "foooooo"

But since you only seem to be interested in the capture group, note that you can index a string with a regex:

"foo"[/oo/]
#=> "oo"
"Z_123: foobar"[/^Z_.*(?=:)/]
#=> "Z_123"

Remove quotes from a character vector in R

as.name(char[1]) will work, although I'm not sure why you'd ever really want to do this -- the quotes won't get carried over in a paste for example:

> paste("I am counting to", char[1], char[2], char[3])
[1] "I am counting to one two three"

Automatic login script for a website on windows machine?

The code below does just that. The below is a working example to log into a game. I made a similar file to log in into Yahoo and a kurzweilai.net forum.

Just copy the login form from any webpage's source code. Add value= "your user name" and value = "your password". Normally the -input- elements in the source code do not have the value attribute, and sometime, you will see something like that: value=""

Save the file as a html on a local machine double click it, or make a bat/cmd file to launch and close them as required.

    <!doctype html>
    <!-- saved from url=(0014)about:internet -->

    <html>
    <title>Ikariam Autologin</title>
    </head>
    <body>
    <form id="loginForm" name="loginForm" method="post"    action="http://s666.en.ikariam.com/index.php?action=loginAvatar&function=login">
    <select name="uni_url" id="logServer" class="validate[required]">
    <option  class=""  value="s666.en.ikariam.com" fbUrl=""  cookieName=""  >
            Test_en
    </option>
    </select>
    <input id="loginName" name="name" type="text" value="PlayersName" class="" />
    <input id="loginPassword" name="password" type="password" value="examplepassword" class="" />
    <input type="hidden" id="loginKid" name="kid" value=""/>
                        </form>
  <script>document.loginForm.submit();</script>       
  </body></html>

Note that -script- is just -script-. I found there is no need to specify that is is JavaScript. It works anyway. I also found out that a bare-bones version that contains just two input filds: userName and password also work. But I left a hidded input field etc. just in case. Yahoo mail has a lot of hidden fields. Some are to do with password encryption, and it counts login attempts.

How to find files modified in last x minutes (find -mmin does not work as expected)

To search for files in /target_directory and all its sub-directories, that have been modified in the last 60 minutes:

$ find /target_directory -type f -mmin -60

To find the most recently modified files, sorted in the reverse order of update time (i.e., the most recently updated files first):

$ find /etc -type f -printf '%TY-%Tm-%Td %TT %p\n' | sort -r

What is the difference between visibility:hidden and display:none?

display: none

It will remove the element from the normal flow of the page, allowing other elements to fill in.

An element will not appear on the page at all but we can still interact with it through the DOM. There will be no space allocated for it between the other elements.

visibility: hidden

It will leave the element in the normal flow of the page such that is still occupies space.

An element is not visible and Element’s space is allocated for it on the page.

Some other ways to hide elements

Use z-index

#element {
   z-index: -11111;
}

Move an element off the page

#element {
   position: absolute; 
   top: -9999em;
   left: -9999em;
}

Interesting information about visibility: hidden and display: none properties

visibility: hidden and display: none will be equally performant since they both re-trigger layout, paint and composite. However, opacity: 0 is functionality equivalent to visibility: hidden and does not re-trigger the layout step.

And CSS-transition property is also important thing that we need to take care. Because toggling from visibility: hidden to visibility: visible allow for CSS-transitions to be use, whereas toggling from display: none to display: block does not. visibility: hidden has the additional benefit of not capturing JavaScript events, whereas opacity: 0 captures events

Push commits to another branch

Certainly, though it will only work if it's a fast forward of BRANCH2 or if you force it. The correct syntax to do such a thing is

git push <remote> <source branch>:<dest branch>

See the description of a "refspec" on the git push man page for more detail on how it works. Also note that both a force push and a reset are operations that "rewrite history", and shouldn't be attempted by the faint of heart unless you're absolutely sure you know what you're doing with respect to any remote repositories and other people who have forks/clones of the same project.

How to compare two vectors for equality element by element in C++?

If they really absolutely have to remain unsorted (which they really don't.. and if you're dealing with hundreds of thousands of elements then I have to ask why you would be comparing vectors like this), you can hack together a compare method which works with unsorted arrays.

The only way I though of to do that was to create a temporary vector3 and pretend to do a set_intersection by adding all elements of vector1 to it, then doing a search for each individual element of vector2 in vector3 and removing it if found. I know that sounds terrible, but that's why I'm not writing any C++ standard libraries anytime soon.

Really, though, just sort them first.

JS Client-Side Exif Orientation: Rotate and Mirror JPEG Images

The github project JavaScript-Load-Image provides a complete solution to the EXIF orientation problem, correctly rotating/mirroring images for all 8 exif orientations. See the online demo of javascript exif orientation

The image is drawn onto an HTML5 canvas. Its correct rendering is implemented in js/load-image-orientation.js through canvas operations.

Hope this saves somebody else some time, and teaches the search engines about this open source gem :)

Is Java "pass-by-reference" or "pass-by-value"?

I thought I'd contribute this answer to add more details from the Specifications.

First, What's the difference between passing by reference vs. passing by value?

Passing by reference means the called functions' parameter will be the same as the callers' passed argument (not the value, but the identity - the variable itself).

Pass by value means the called functions' parameter will be a copy of the callers' passed argument.

Or from wikipedia, on the subject of pass-by-reference

In call-by-reference evaluation (also referred to as pass-by-reference), a function receives an implicit reference to a variable used as argument, rather than a copy of its value. This typically means that the function can modify (i.e. assign to) the variable used as argument—something that will be seen by its caller.

And on the subject of pass-by-value

In call-by-value, the argument expression is evaluated, and the resulting value is bound to the corresponding variable in the function [...]. If the function or procedure is able to assign values to its parameters, only its local copy is assigned [...].

Second, we need to know what Java uses in its method invocations. The Java Language Specification states

When the method or constructor is invoked (§15.12), the values of the actual argument expressions initialize newly created parameter variables, each of the declared type, before execution of the body of the method or constructor.

So it assigns (or binds) the value of the argument to the corresponding parameter variable.

What is the value of the argument?

Let's consider reference types, the Java Virtual Machine Specification states

There are three kinds of reference types: class types, array types, and interface types. Their values are references to dynamically created class instances, arrays, or class instances or arrays that implement interfaces, respectively.

The Java Language Specification also states

The reference values (often just references) are pointers to these objects, and a special null reference, which refers to no object.

The value of an argument (of some reference type) is a pointer to an object. Note that a variable, an invocation of a method with a reference type return type, and an instance creation expression (new ...) all resolve to a reference type value.

public void method (String param) {}
...
String var = new String("ref");
method(var);
method(var.toString());
method(new String("ref"));

all bind the value of a reference to a String instance to the method's newly created parameter, param. This is exactly what the definition of pass-by-value describes. As such, Java is pass-by-value.

The fact that you can follow the reference to invoke a method or access a field of the referenced object is completely irrelevant to the conversation. The definition of pass-by-reference was

This typically means that the function can modify (i.e. assign to) the variable used as argument—something that will be seen by its caller.

In Java, modifying the variable means reassigning it. In Java, if you reassigned the variable within the method, it would go unnoticed to the caller. Modifying the object referenced by the variable is a different concept entirely.

Primitive values are also defined in the Java Virtual Machine Specification, here. The value of the type is the corresponding integral or floating point value, encoded appropriately (8, 16, 32, 64, etc. bits).

Loop through an array in JavaScript

You can use map, which is a functional programming technique that's also available in other languages like Python and Haskell.

[1,2,3,4].map( function(item) {
     alert(item);
})

The general syntax is:

array.map(func)

In general func would take one parameter, which is an item of the array. But in the case of JavaScript, it can take a second parameter which is the item's index, and a third parameter which is the array itself.

The return value of array.map is another array, so you can use it like this:

var x = [1,2,3,4].map( function(item) {return item * 10;});

And now x is [10,20,30,40].

You don't have to write the function inline. It could be a separate function.

var item_processor = function(item) {
      // Do something complicated to an item
}

new_list = my_list.map(item_processor);

which would be sort-of equivalent to:

 for (item in my_list) {item_processor(item);}

Except you don't get the new_list.

MIN and MAX in C

Avoid non-standard compiler extensions and implement it as a completely type-safe macro in pure standard C (ISO 9899:2011).

Solution

#define GENERIC_MAX(x, y) ((x) > (y) ? (x) : (y))

#define ENSURE_int(i)   _Generic((i), int:   (i))
#define ENSURE_float(f) _Generic((f), float: (f))


#define MAX(type, x, y) \
  (type)GENERIC_MAX(ENSURE_##type(x), ENSURE_##type(y))

Usage

MAX(int, 2, 3)

Explanation

The macro MAX creates another macro based on the type parameter. This control macro, if implemented for the given type, is used to check that both parameters are of the correct type. If the type is not supported, there will be a compiler error.

If either x or y is not of the correct type, there will be a compiler error in the ENSURE_ macros. More such macros can be added if more types are supported. I've assumed that only arithmetic types (integers, floats, pointers etc) will be used and not structs or arrays etc.

If all types are correct, the GENERIC_MAX macro will be called. Extra parenthesis are needed around each macro parameter, as the usual standard precaution when writing C macros.

Then there's the usual problems with implicit type promotions in C. The ?:operator balances the 2nd and 3rd operand against each other. For example, the result of GENERIC_MAX(my_char1, my_char2) would be an int. To prevent the macro from doing such potentially dangerous type promotions, a final type cast to the intended type was used.

Rationale

We want both parameters to the macro to be of the same type. If one of them is of a different type, the macro is no longer type safe, because an operator like ?: will yield implicit type promotions. And because it does, we also always need to cast the final result back to the intended type as explained above.

A macro with just one parameter could have been written in a much simpler way. But with 2 or more parameters, there is a need to include an extra type parameter. Because something like this is unfortunately impossible:

// this won't work
#define MAX(x, y)                                  \
  _Generic((x),                                    \
           int: GENERIC_MAX(x, ENSURE_int(y))      \
           float: GENERIC_MAX(x, ENSURE_float(y))  \
          )

The problem is that if the above macro is called as MAX(1, 2) with two int, it will still try to macro-expand all possible scenarios of the _Generic association list. So the ENSURE_float macro will get expanded too, even though it isn't relevant for int. And since that macro intentionally only contains the float type, the code won't compile.

To solve this, I created the macro name during the pre-processor phase instead, with the ## operator, so that no macro gets accidentally expanded.

Examples

#include <stdio.h>

#define GENERIC_MAX(x, y) ((x) > (y) ? (x) : (y))

#define ENSURE_int(i)   _Generic((i), int:   (i))
#define ENSURE_float(f) _Generic((f), float: (f))


#define MAX(type, x, y) \
  (type)GENERIC_MAX(ENSURE_##type(x), ENSURE_##type(y))

int main (void)
{
  int    ia = 1,    ib = 2;
  float  fa = 3.0f, fb = 4.0f;
  double da = 5.0,  db = 6.0;

  printf("%d\n", MAX(int,   ia, ib)); // ok
  printf("%f\n", MAX(float, fa, fb)); // ok

//printf("%d\n", MAX(int,   ia, fa));  compiler error, one of the types is wrong
//printf("%f\n", MAX(float, fa, ib));  compiler error, one of the types is wrong
//printf("%f\n", MAX(double, fa, fb)); compiler error, the specified type is wrong
//printf("%f\n", MAX(float, da, db));  compiler error, one of the types is wrong

//printf("%d\n", MAX(unsigned int, ia, ib)); // wont get away with this either
//printf("%d\n", MAX(int32_t, ia, ib)); // wont get away with this either
  return 0;
}

One liner for If string is not null or empty else

You can achieve this with pattern matching with the switch expression in C#8/9

FooTextBox.Text = strFoo switch
{
    { Length: >0 } s => s, // If the length of the string is greater than 0 
    _ => "0" // Anything else
};

How do I download a file with Angular2 or greater

Try this!

1 - Install dependencies for show save/open file pop-up

npm install file-saver --save
npm install @types/file-saver --save

2- Create a service with this function to recive the data

downloadFile(id): Observable<Blob> {
    let options = new RequestOptions({responseType: ResponseContentType.Blob });
    return this.http.get(this._baseUrl + '/' + id, options)
        .map(res => res.blob())
        .catch(this.handleError)
}

3- In the component parse the blob with 'file-saver'

import {saveAs as importedSaveAs} from "file-saver";

  this.myService.downloadFile(this.id).subscribe(blob => {
            importedSaveAs(blob, this.fileName);
        }
    )

This works for me!

How to handle ETIMEDOUT error?

This is caused when your request response is not received in given time(by timeout request module option).

Basically to catch that error first, you need to register a handler on error, so the unhandled error won't be thrown anymore: out.on('error', function (err) { /* handle errors here */ }). Some more explanation here.

In the handler you can check if the error is ETIMEDOUT and apply your own logic: if (err.message.code === 'ETIMEDOUT') { /* apply logic */ }.

If you want to request for the file again, I suggest using node-retry or node-backoff modules. It makes things much simpler.

If you want to wait longer, you can set timeout option of request yourself. You can set it to 0 for no timeout.

How do I close a tkinter window?

Illumination in case of confusion...

def quit(self):
    self.destroy()
    exit()

A) destroy() stops the mainloop and kills the window, but leaves python running

B) exit() stops the whole process

Just to clarify in case someone missed what destroy() was doing, and the OP also asked how to "end" a tkinter program.

How to add a classname/id to React-Bootstrap Component?

If you look at the code for the component you can see that it uses the className prop passed to it to combine with the row class to get the resulting set of classes (<Row className="aaa bbb"... works).Also, if you provide the id prop like <Row id="444" ... it will actually set the id attribute for the element.

How do I remove all .pyc files from a project?

Further, people usually want to remove all *.pyc, *.pyo files and __pycache__ directories recursively in the current directory.

Command:

find . | grep -E "(__pycache__|\.pyc|\.pyo$)" | xargs rm -rf

The default for KeyValuePair

From your original code it looks like what you want is to check if the list was empty:

var getResult= keyValueList.SingleOrDefault();
if (keyValueList.Count == 0)
{
   /* default */
}
else
{
}

Insert entire DataTable into database at once instead of row by row?

You can do this with a table value parameters.

Have a look at the following article:

EditText non editable

android:editable="false" should work, but it is deprecated, you should be using android:inputType="none" instead.

Alternatively, if you want to do it in the code you could do this :

EditText mEdit = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.yourid);
mEdit.setEnabled(false);

This is also a viable alternative :

EditText mEdit = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.yourid);
mEdit.setKeyListener(null);

If you're going to make your EditText non-editable, may I suggest using the TextView widget instead of the EditText, since using a EditText seems kind of pointless in that case.

EDIT: Altered some information since I've found that android:editable is deprecated, and you should use android:inputType="none", but there is a bug about it on android code; So please check this.

Is Xamarin free in Visual Studio 2015?

I asked the same question to Xamarin support team, they replied with following:

You can develop an app with Xamarin for commercial usage - there is no extra charge! We only require you to comply with Visual Studio's licensing terms,

which means that in companies of less than 250 employees with less than $1million USD annual revenue, you may use Visual Studio completely free (including Xamarin) for up to 5 developers.

However after you pass those barriers, you would need a Visual Studio license (which includes Xamarin).

Refer the screenshot below.

How can I render repeating React elements?

In the spirit of functional programming, let's make our components a bit easier to work with by using abstractions.

// converts components into mappable functions
var mappable = function(component){
  return function(x, i){
    return component({key: i}, x);
  }
}

// maps on 2-dimensional arrays
var map2d = function(m1, m2, xss){
  return xss.map(function(xs, i, arr){
    return m1(xs.map(m2), i, arr);
  });
}

var td = mappable(React.DOM.td);
var tr = mappable(React.DOM.tr);
var th = mappable(React.DOM.th);

Now we can define our render like this:

render: function(){
  return (
    <table>
      <thead>{this.props.titles.map(th)}</thead>
      <tbody>{map2d(tr, td, this.props.rows)}</tbody>
    </table>
  );
}

jsbin

An alternative to our map2d would be a curried map function, but people tend to shy away from currying.

Django - Static file not found

Another error can be not having your app listed in the INSTALLED_APPS listing like:

INSTALLED_APPS = [
    # ...
    'your_app',
]

Without having it in, you can face problems like not detecting your static files, basically all the files involving your app. Even though it can be correct as suggested in the correct answer by using:

STATICFILES_DIRS = (adding/path/of/your/app)

Can be one of the errors and should be reviewed if getting this error.

How do I remove a MySQL database?

If you are working in XAMPP and your query of drop database doesn't work then you can go to the operations tag where you find the column (drop the database(drop)), click that button and your database will be deleted.

Match exact string

Use the start and end delimiters: ^abc$

SQL Query NOT Between Two Dates

What you are currently doing is checking whether neither the start_date nor the end_date fall within the range of the dates given.

I guess what you are really looking for is a record which does not fit in the date range given. If so, use the query below.

SELECT * 
    FROM `test_table` 
    WHERE  CAST('2009-12-15' AS DATE) > start_date  AND  CAST('2010-01-02' AS DATE) < end_date

In python, how do I cast a class object to a dict

I am trying to write a class that is "both" a list or a dict. I want the programmer to be able to both "cast" this object to a list (dropping the keys) or dict (with the keys).

Looking at the way Python currently does the dict() cast: It calls Mapping.update() with the object that is passed. This is the code from the Python repo:

def update(self, other=(), /, **kwds):
    ''' D.update([E, ]**F) -> None.  Update D from mapping/iterable E and F.
        If E present and has a .keys() method, does:     for k in E: D[k] = E[k]
        If E present and lacks .keys() method, does:     for (k, v) in E: D[k] = v
        In either case, this is followed by: for k, v in F.items(): D[k] = v
    '''
    if isinstance(other, Mapping):
        for key in other:
            self[key] = other[key]
    elif hasattr(other, "keys"):
        for key in other.keys():
            self[key] = other[key]
    else:
        for key, value in other:
            self[key] = value
    for key, value in kwds.items():
        self[key] = value

The last subcase of the if statement, where it is iterating over other is the one most people have in mind. However, as you can see, it is also possible to have a keys() property. That, combined with a __getitem__() should make it easy to have a subclass be properly casted to a dictionary:

class Wharrgarbl(object):
    def __init__(self, a, b, c, sum, version='old'):
        self.a = a
        self.b = b
        self.c = c
        self.sum = 6
        self.version = version

    def __int__(self):
        return self.sum + 9000

    def __keys__(self):
        return ["a", "b", "c"]

    def __getitem__(self, key):
        # have obj["a"] -> obj.a
        return self.__getattribute__(key)

Then this will work:

>>> w = Wharrgarbl('one', 'two', 'three', 6)
>>> dict(w)
{'a': 'one', 'c': 'three', 'b': 'two'}

How do I stop a web page from scrolling to the top when a link is clicked that triggers JavaScript?

Returning false from the code you're calling will work and in a number of circumstances is the preferred method but you can also so this

<a href="javascript:;">Link Title</a>

When it comes to SEO it really depends on what your link is going to be used for. If you are going to actually use it to link to some other content then I would agree ideally you would want something meaningful here but if you are using the link for functionality purposes maybe like Stack Overflow does for the post toolbar (bold, italic, hyperlink, etc) then it probably doesn't matter.

Java array assignment (multiple values)

You may use a local variable, like:

jQuery calculate sum of values in all text fields

This will work 100%:

<script type="text/javascript">  
  function calculate() {
    var result = document.getElementById('result');
    var el, i = 0, total = 0; 
    while(el = document.getElementById('v'+(i++)) ) {
      el.value = el.value.replace(/\\D/,"");
      total = total + Number(el.value);
    }
    result.value = total;
    if(document.getElementById('v0').value =="" &&
      document.getElementById('v1').value =="" &&
      document.getElementById('v2').value =="" ) {
        result.value ="";
      }
    }
  }
</script>

Some number:<input type="text" id ="v0" onkeyup="calculate()">
Some number:<input type="text" id ="v1" onkeyup="calculate()">
Some number:<input type="text" id ="v2" onkeyup="calculate()">
Result: <input type="text" id="result" onkeyup="calculate()"  readonly>

if A vs if A is not None:

None is a special value in Python which usually designates an uninitialized variable. To test whether A does not have this particular value you use:

if A is not None

Falsey values are a special class of objects in Python (e.g. false, []). To test whether A is falsey use:

if not A

Thus, the two expressions are not the same And you'd better not treat them as synonyms.

P.S. None is also falsey, so the first expression implies the second. But the second covers other falsey values besides None. Now... if you can be sure that you can't have other falsey values besides None in A, then you can replace the first expression with the second.

How to obtain the last path segment of a URI

In Java 7+ a few of the previous answers can be combined to allow retrieval of any path segment from a URI, rather than just the last segment. We can convert the URI to a java.nio.file.Path object, to take advantage of its getName(int) method.

Unfortunately, the static factory Paths.get(uri) is not built to handle the http scheme, so we first need to separate the scheme from the URI's path.

URI uri = URI.create("http://base_path/some_segment/id");
Path path = Paths.get(uri.getPath());
String last = path.getFileName().toString();
String secondToLast = path.getName(path.getNameCount() - 2).toString();

To get the last segment in one line of code, simply nest the lines above.

Paths.get(URI.create("http://base_path/some_segment/id").getPath()).getFileName().toString()

To get the second-to-last segment while avoiding index numbers and the potential for off-by-one errors, use the getParent() method.

String secondToLast = path.getParent().getFileName().toString();

Note the getParent() method can be called repeatedly to retrieve segments in reverse order. In this example, the path only contains two segments, otherwise calling getParent().getParent() would retrieve the third-to-last segment.

Java parsing XML document gives "Content not allowed in prolog." error

The document looks fine to me but I suspect that it contains invisible characters. Open it in a hex editor to check that there really isn't anything before the very first "<". Make sure the spaces in the XML header are spaces. Maybe delete the space before "?>". Check which line breaks are used.

Make sure the document is proper UTF-8. Some windows editors save the document as UTF-16 (i.e. every second byte is 0).

java SSL and cert keystore

SSL properties are set at the JVM level via system properties. Meaning you can either set them when you run the program (java -D....) Or you can set them in code by doing System.setProperty.

The specific keys you have to set are below:

javax.net.ssl.keyStore- Location of the Java keystore file containing an application process's own certificate and private key. On Windows, the specified pathname must use forward slashes, /, in place of backslashes.

javax.net.ssl.keyStorePassword - Password to access the private key from the keystore file specified by javax.net.ssl.keyStore. This password is used twice: To unlock the keystore file (store password), and To decrypt the private key stored in the keystore (key password).

javax.net.ssl.trustStore - Location of the Java keystore file containing the collection of CA certificates trusted by this application process (trust store). On Windows, the specified pathname must use forward slashes, /, in place of backslashes, \.

If a trust store location is not specified using this property, the SunJSSE implementation searches for and uses a keystore file in the following locations (in order):

$JAVA_HOME/lib/security/jssecacerts

$JAVA_HOME/lib/security/cacerts

javax.net.ssl.trustStorePassword - Password to unlock the keystore file (store password) specified by javax.net.ssl.trustStore.

javax.net.ssl.trustStoreType - (Optional) For Java keystore file format, this property has the value jks (or JKS). You do not normally specify this property, because its default value is already jks.

javax.net.debug - To switch on logging for the SSL/TLS layer, set this property to ssl.

How to SELECT based on value of another SELECT

You can calculate the total (and from that the desired percentage) by using a subquery in the FROM clause:

SELECT Name,
       SUM(Value) AS "SUM(VALUE)",
       SUM(Value) / totals.total AS "% of Total"
FROM   table1,
       (
           SELECT Name,
                  SUM(Value) AS total
           FROM   table1
           GROUP BY Name
       ) AS totals
WHERE  table1.Name = totals.Name
AND    Year BETWEEN 2000 AND 2001
GROUP BY Name;

Note that the subquery does not have the WHERE clause filtering the years.

Setting the correct encoding when piping stdout in Python

First, regarding this solution:

# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-
print u"åäö".encode('utf-8')

It's not practical to explicitly print with a given encoding every time. That would be repetitive and error-prone.

A better solution is to change sys.stdout at the start of your program, to encode with a selected encoding. Here is one solution I found on Python: How is sys.stdout.encoding chosen?, in particular a comment by "toka":

import sys
import codecs
sys.stdout = codecs.getwriter('utf8')(sys.stdout)

Sort array by value alphabetically php

You want the php function "asort":

http://php.net/manual/en/function.asort.php

it sorts the array, maintaining the index associations.

Edit: I've just noticed you're using a standard array (non-associative). if you're not fussed about preserving index associations, use sort():

http://php.net/manual/en/function.sort.php

Update multiple values in a single statement

Why are you doing a group by on an update statement? Are you sure that's not the part that's causing the query to fail? Try this:

update 
    MasterTbl
set
    TotalX = Sum(DetailTbl.X),
    TotalY = Sum(DetailTbl.Y),
    TotalZ = Sum(DetailTbl.Z)
from
    DetailTbl
where
    DetailTbl.MasterID = MasterID

Escaping regex string

Use the re.escape() function for this:

4.2.3 re Module Contents

escape(string)

Return string with all non-alphanumerics backslashed; this is useful if you want to match an arbitrary literal string that may have regular expression metacharacters in it.

A simplistic example, search any occurence of the provided string optionally followed by 's', and return the match object.

def simplistic_plural(word, text):
    word_or_plural = re.escape(word) + 's?'
    return re.match(word_or_plural, text)

What's the difference between using "let" and "var"?

let is interesting, because it allows us to do something like this:

(() => {
    var count = 0;

    for (let i = 0; i < 2; ++i) {
        for (let i = 0; i < 2; ++i) {
            for (let i = 0; i < 2; ++i) {
                console.log(count++);
            }
        }
    }
})();

Which results in counting [0, 7].

Whereas

(() => {
    var count = 0;

    for (var i = 0; i < 2; ++i) {
        for (var i = 0; i < 2; ++i) {
            for (var i = 0; i < 2; ++i) {
                console.log(count++);
            }
        }
    }
})();

Only counts [0, 1].

How to truncate a foreign key constrained table?

If the database engine for tables differ you will get this error so change them to InnoDB

ALTER TABLE my_table ENGINE = InnoDB;

Reset select value to default

Bind an event handler to the focus event of the select to capture the previous value. Then set the value of the select to the previous value when reset is clicked.

var previousValue = "";
$("#my_select").on("focus",function(){
    previousValue = $(this).val();
});

$("#reset").on("click", function () {
   $("#my_select").val(previousValue);
});

What does 'wb' mean in this code, using Python?

The wb indicates that the file is opened for writing in binary mode.

When writing in binary mode, Python makes no changes to data as it is written to the file. In text mode (when the b is excluded as in just w or when you specify text mode with wt), however, Python will encode the text based on the default text encoding. Additionally, Python will convert line endings (\n) to whatever the platform-specific line ending is, which would corrupt a binary file like an exe or png file.

Text mode should therefore be used when writing text files (whether using plain text or a text-based format like CSV), while binary mode must be used when writing non-text files like images.

MySQL Removing Some Foreign keys

Check what's the CONSTRAINT name and the FOREIGN KEY name:

SHOW CREATE TABLE table_name;

Remove both the CONSTRAINT name and the FOREIGN KEY name:

ALTER TABLE table_name
  DROP FOREIGN KEY the_name_after_CONSTRAINT,
  DROP KEY the_name_after_FOREIGN_KEY;

Hope this helps!

css background image in a different folder from css

You are using a relative path. You should use the absolute path, url(/assets/css/style.css).

get original element from ng-click

Not a direct answer to this question but rather to the "issue" of $event.currentTarget apparently be set to null.

This is due to the fact that console.log shows deep mutable objects at the last state of execution, not at the state when console.log was called.

You can check this for more information: Consecutive calls to console.log produce inconsistent results

then you can use it to change the activity by putting this at the java file:

public void goToActivity2 (View view){
    Intent intent = new Intent (this, Main2Activity.class);
    startActivity(intent);
}

Note that my second activity is called "Main2Activity"

Call to undefined function App\Http\Controllers\ [ function name ]

say you define the static getFactorial function inside a CodeController

then this is the way you need to call a static function, because static properties and methods exists with in the class, not in the objects created using the class.

CodeController::getFactorial($index);

----------------UPDATE----------------

To best practice I think you can put this kind of functions inside a separate file so you can maintain with more easily.

to do that

create a folder inside app directory and name it as lib (you can put a name you like).

this folder to needs to be autoload to do that add app/lib to composer.json as below. and run the composer dumpautoload command.

"autoload": {
    "classmap": [
                "app/commands",
                "app/controllers",
                ............
                "app/lib"
    ]
},

then files inside lib will autoloaded.

then create a file inside lib, i name it helperFunctions.php

inside that define the function.

if ( ! function_exists('getFactorial'))
{

    /**
     * return the factorial of a number
     *
     * @param $number
     * @return string
     */
    function getFactorial($date)
    {
        $fact = 1;

        for($i = 1; $i <= $num ;$i++)
            $fact = $fact * $i;

        return $fact;

     }
}

and call it anywhere within the app as

$fatorial_value = getFactorial(225);

Checking something isEmpty in Javascript?

Check for undefined:

if (typeof response.photo == "undefined")
{
    // do something
}

This would do the equivelant of vb's IsEmpty. If myvar contains any value, even null, empty string, or 0, it is not "empty".

To check if a variable or property exists, eg it's been declared, though it may be not have been defined, you can use the in operator.

if ("photo" in response)
{
    // do something
}

Convert Difference between 2 times into Milliseconds?

Many of the above mentioned solutions might suite different people.
I would like to suggest a slightly modified code than most accepted solution by "MusiGenesis".

DateTime firstTime = DateTime.Parse( TextBox1.Text );
DateTime secondTime = DateTime.Parse( TextBox2.Text );
double milDiff = secondTime.Subtract(firstTime).TotalMilliseconds;

Considerations:
- earlierTime.Subtract(laterTime) you will get a negative value.
- use int milDiff = (int)DateTime.Now.Subtract(StartTime).TotalMilliseconds; if you need integer value instead of double
- Same code can be used to get difference between two Date values and you may get .TotalDays or .TotalHours insteaf of .TotalMilliseconds

How can I save application settings in a Windows Forms application?

If you work with Visual Studio then it is pretty easy to get persistable settings. Right click on the project in Solution Explorer and choose Properties. Select the Settings tab and click on the hyperlink if settings doesn't exist.

Use the Settings tab to create application settings. Visual Studio creates the files Settings.settings and Settings.Designer.settings that contain the singleton class Settings inherited from ApplicationSettingsBase. You can access this class from your code to read/write application settings:

Properties.Settings.Default["SomeProperty"] = "Some Value";
Properties.Settings.Default.Save(); // Saves settings in application configuration file

This technique is applicable both for console, Windows Forms, and other project types.

Note that you need to set the scope property of your settings. If you select Application scope then Settings.Default.<your property> will be read-only.

How can I delete a query string parameter in JavaScript?

Assuming you want to remove key=val parameter from URI:

function removeParam(uri) {
   return uri.replace(/([&\?]key=val*$|key=val&|[?&]key=val(?=#))/, '');
}

Python Brute Force algorithm

Try this:

import os

How to Resize a Bitmap in Android?

Scale a bitmap with a target maximum size and width, while maintaining aspect ratio:

int maxHeight = 2000;
int maxWidth = 2000;    
float scale = Math.min(((float)maxHeight / bitmap.getWidth()), ((float)maxWidth / bitmap.getHeight()));

Matrix matrix = new Matrix();
matrix.postScale(scale, scale);

bitmap = Bitmap.createBitmap(bitmap, 0, 0, bitmap.getWidth(), bitmap.getHeight(), matrix, true);

How can I convert the "arguments" object to an array in JavaScript?

This is a very old question, but I think I have a solution that is slightly easier to type than previous solutions and doesn't rely on external libraries:

function sortArguments() {
  return Array.apply(null, arguments).sort();
}

How to get the server path to the web directory in Symfony2 from inside the controller?

Since Symfony 3.3,

You can use %kernel.project_dir%/web/ instead of %kernel.root_dir%/../web/

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.

HTML form readonly SELECT tag/input

input being your <select> element:

input.querySelectorAll(':not([selected])').forEach(option => {
  option.disabled = true
})

This will keep the select in the data (as it's not disabled) and only the option that are not selected are disabled, therefore not selectable. The result is a readable select that cannot be changed (=> read only).

How do you read CSS rule values with JavaScript?

Adapted from here, building on scunliffe's answer:

function getStyle(className) {
    var cssText = "";
    var classes = document.styleSheets[0].rules || document.styleSheets[0].cssRules;
    for (var x = 0; x < classes.length; x++) {        
        if (classes[x].selectorText == className) {
            cssText += classes[x].cssText || classes[x].style.cssText;
        }         
    }
    return cssText;
}

alert(getStyle('.test'));

Java how to sort a Linked List?

If you'd like to know how to sort a linked list without using standard Java libraries, I'd suggest looking at different algorithms yourself. Examples here show how to implement an insertion sort, another StackOverflow post shows a merge sort, and ehow even gives some examples on how to create a custom compare function in case you want to further customize your sort.

Setting timezone in Python

It's not an answer, but...

To get datetime components individually, better use datetime.timetuple:

time = datetime.now()
time.timetuple()
#-> time.struct_time(
#    tm_year=2014, tm_mon=9, tm_mday=7, 
#    tm_hour=2, tm_min=38, tm_sec=5, 
#    tm_wday=6, tm_yday=250, tm_isdst=-1
#)

It's now easy to get the parts:

ts = time.timetuple()
ts.tm_year
ts.tm_mon
ts.tm_mday
ts.tm_hour
ts.tm_min
ts.tm_sec

Difference between pre-increment and post-increment in a loop?

The question is:

Is there a difference in ++i and i++ in a for loop?

The answer is: No.

Why does each and every other answer have to go into detailed explanations about pre and post incrementing when this is not even asked?

This for-loop:

for (int i = 0; // Initialization
     i < 5;     // Condition
     i++)       // Increment
{
   Output(i);
}

Would translate to this code without using loops:

int i = 0; // Initialization

loopStart:
if (i < 5) // Condition
{
   Output(i);

   i++ or ++i; // Increment

   goto loopStart;
}

Now does it matter if you put i++ or ++i as increment here? No it does not as the return value of the increment operation is insignificant. i will be incremented AFTER the code's execution that is inside the for loop body.

How to Apply Gradient to background view of iOS Swift App

Swift 4

Add a view outlet

@IBOutlet weak var gradientView: UIView!

Add gradient to the view

func setGradient() {
    let gradient: CAGradientLayer = CAGradientLayer()
    gradient.colors = [UIColor.red.cgColor, UIColor.blue.cgColor]
    gradient.locations = [0.0 , 1.0]
    gradient.startPoint = CGPoint(x: 0.0, y: 1.0)
    gradient.endPoint = CGPoint(x: 1.0, y: 1.0)
    gradient.frame = gradientView.layer.frame
    gradientView.layer.insertSublayer(gradient, at: 0)
}

C++ IDE for Linux?

I like SciTE as a basic editor for C++/Python on Linux. It has keyboard bindings similar to VC so you do not have to reprogram your cut-and-paste fingers.

I use it together with Git for source code control and the very useful 'git grep' command for searching in your code base.

I played with Eclipse CDT but my source codebase was to big for it and I spend too much time waiting on the IDE. If your project is smaller it may be good for you though.

An array of List in c#

simple approach:

        List<int>[] a = new List<int>[100];

        {
            a[i] = new List<int>();
        }

or LINQ approach

        var b = Enumerable.Range(0,100).Select((i)=>new List<int>()).ToArray();

How to listen to route changes in react router v4?

I just dealt with this problem, so I'll add my solution as a supplement on other answers given.

The problem here is that useEffect doesn't really work as you would want it to, since the call only gets triggered after the first render so there is an unwanted delay.
If you use some state manager like redux, chances are that you will get a flicker on the screen because of lingering state in the store.

What you really want is to use useLayoutEffect since this gets triggered immediately.

So I wrote a small utility function that I put in the same directory as my router:

export const callApis = (fn, path) => {
    useLayoutEffect(() => {
      fn();
    }, [path]);
};

Which I call from within the component HOC like this:

callApis(() => getTopicById({topicId}), path);

path is the prop that gets passed in the match object when using withRouter.

I'm not really in favour of listening / unlistening manually on history. That's just imo.

Matplotlib subplots_adjust hspace so titles and xlabels don't overlap?

I find this quite tricky, but there is some information on it here at the MatPlotLib FAQ. It is rather cumbersome, and requires finding out about what space individual elements (ticklabels) take up...

Update: The page states that the tight_layout() function is the easiest way to go, which attempts to automatically correct spacing.

Otherwise, it shows ways to acquire the sizes of various elements (eg. labels) so you can then correct the spacings/positions of your axes elements. Here is an example from the above FAQ page, which determines the width of a very wide y-axis label, and adjusts the axis width accordingly:

import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import matplotlib.transforms as mtransforms
fig = plt.figure()
ax = fig.add_subplot(111)
ax.plot(range(10))
ax.set_yticks((2,5,7))
labels = ax.set_yticklabels(('really, really, really', 'long', 'labels'))

def on_draw(event):
   bboxes = []
   for label in labels:
       bbox = label.get_window_extent()
       # the figure transform goes from relative coords->pixels and we
       # want the inverse of that
       bboxi = bbox.inverse_transformed(fig.transFigure)
       bboxes.append(bboxi)

   # this is the bbox that bounds all the bboxes, again in relative
   # figure coords
   bbox = mtransforms.Bbox.union(bboxes)
   if fig.subplotpars.left < bbox.width:
       # we need to move it over
       fig.subplots_adjust(left=1.1*bbox.width) # pad a little
       fig.canvas.draw()
   return False

fig.canvas.mpl_connect('draw_event', on_draw)

plt.show()

How to enable CORS on Firefox?

I was stucked with this problem for a long time (CORS does not work in FF, but works in Chrome and others). No advice could help. Finally, i found that my local dev subdomain (like sub.example.dev) was not explicitly mentioned in /etc/hosts, thus FF just is not able to find it and shows confusing error message 'Aborted...' in dev tools panel.

Putting the exact subdomain into my local /etc/hosts fixed the problem. /etc/hosts is just a plain-text file in unix systems, so you can open it under the root user and put your subdomain in front of '127.0.0.1' ip address.

    %>

convert big endian to little endian in C [without using provided func]

If you are running on a x86 or x86_64 processor, the big endian is native. so

for 16 bit values

unsigned short wBigE = value;
unsigned short wLittleE = ((wBigE & 0xFF) << 8) | (wBigE >> 8);

for 32 bit values

unsigned int   iBigE = value;
unsigned int   iLittleE = ((iBigE & 0xFF) << 24)
                        | ((iBigE & 0xFF00) << 8)
                        | ((iBigE >> 8) & 0xFF00)
                        | (iBigE >> 24);

This isn't the most efficient solution unless the compiler recognises that this is byte level manipulation and generates byte swapping code. But it doesn't depend on any memory layout tricks and can be turned into a macro pretty easily.

How to schedule a periodic task in Java?

Use Google Guava AbstractScheduledService as given below:

public class ScheduledExecutor extends AbstractScheduledService {

   @Override
   protected void runOneIteration() throws Exception {
      System.out.println("Executing....");
   }

   @Override
   protected Scheduler scheduler() {
        return Scheduler.newFixedRateSchedule(0, 3, TimeUnit.SECONDS);
   }

   @Override
   protected void startUp() {
       System.out.println("StartUp Activity....");
   }


   @Override
   protected void shutDown() {
       System.out.println("Shutdown Activity...");
   }

   public static void main(String[] args) throws InterruptedException {
       ScheduledExecutor se = new ScheduledExecutor();
       se.startAsync();
       Thread.sleep(15000);
       se.stopAsync();
   }
}

If you have more services like this, then registering all services in ServiceManager will be good as all services can be started and stopped together. Read here for more on ServiceManager.

change pgsql port

There should be a line in your postgresql.conf file that says:

port = 1486

Change that.

The location of the file can vary depending on your install options. On Debian-based distros it is /etc/postgresql/8.3/main/

On Windows it is C:\Program Files\PostgreSQL\9.3\data

Don't forget to sudo service postgresql restart for changes to take effect.

Reading column names alone in a csv file

Though you already have an accepted answer, I figured I'd add this for anyone else interested in a different solution-

Python's DictReader object in the CSV module (as of Python 2.6 and above) has a public attribute called fieldnames. https://docs.python.org/3.4/library/csv.html#csv.csvreader.fieldnames

An implementation could be as follows:

import csv

with open('C:/mypath/to/csvfile.csv', 'r') as f:
    d_reader = csv.DictReader(f)

    #get fieldnames from DictReader object and store in list
    headers = d_reader.fieldnames

    for line in d_reader:
        #print value in MyCol1 for each row
        print(line['MyCol1'])

In the above, d_reader.fieldnames returns a list of your headers (assuming the headers are in the top row). Which allows...

>>> print(headers)
['MyCol1', 'MyCol2', 'MyCol3']

If your headers are in, say the 2nd row (with the very top row being row 1), you could do as follows:

import csv

with open('C:/mypath/to/csvfile.csv', 'r') as f:
    #you can eat the first line before creating DictReader.
    #if no "fieldnames" param is passed into
    #DictReader object upon creation, DictReader
    #will read the upper-most line as the headers
    f.readline()

    d_reader = csv.DictReader(f)
    headers = d_reader.fieldnames

    for line in d_reader:
        #print value in MyCol1 for each row
        print(line['MyCol1'])

How do I get the path of the assembly the code is in?

This should work:

ExeConfigurationFileMap fileMap = new ExeConfigurationFileMap();
Assembly asm = Assembly.GetCallingAssembly();
String path = Path.GetDirectoryName(new Uri(asm.EscapedCodeBase).LocalPath);

string strLog4NetConfigPath = System.IO.Path.Combine(path, "log4net.config");

I am using this to deploy DLL file libraries along with some configuration file (this is to use log4net from within the DLL file).

How do I print a double value with full precision using cout?

By full precision, I assume mean enough precision to show the best approximation to the intended value, but it should be pointed out that double is stored using base 2 representation and base 2 can't represent something as trivial as 1.1 exactly. The only way to get the full-full precision of the actual double (with NO ROUND OFF ERROR) is to print out the binary bits (or hex nybbles).

One way of doing that is using a union to type-pun the double to a integer and then printing the integer, since integers do not suffer from truncation or round-off issues. (Type punning like this is not supported by the C++ standard, but it is supported in C. However, most C++ compilers will probably print out the correct value anyways. I think g++ supports this.)

union {
    double d;
    uint64_t u64;
} x;
x.d = 1.1;
std::cout << std::hex << x.u64;

This will give you the 100% accurate precision of the double... and be utterly unreadable because humans can't read IEEE double format ! Wikipedia has a good write up on how to interpret the binary bits.

In newer C++, you can do

std::cout << std::hexfloat << 1.1;

Javascript reduce on array of objects

To formalize what has been pointed out, a reducer is a catamorphism which takes two arguments which may be the same type by coincidence, and returns a type which matches the first argument.

function reducer (accumulator: X, currentValue: Y): X { }

That means that the body of the reducer needs to be about converting currentValue and the current value of the accumulator to the value of the new accumulator.

This works in a straightforward way, when adding, because the accumulator and the element values both happen to be the same type (but serve different purposes).

[1, 2, 3].reduce((x, y) => x + y);

This just works because they're all numbers.

[{ age: 5 }, { age: 2 }, { age: 8 }]
  .reduce((total, thing) => total + thing.age, 0);

Now we're giving a starting value to the aggregator. The starting value should be the type that you expect the aggregator to be (the type you expect to come out as the final value), in the vast majority of cases. While you aren't forced to do this (and shouldn't be), it's important to keep in mind.

Once you know that, you can write meaningful reductions for other n:1 relationship problems.

Removing repeated words:

const skipIfAlreadyFound = (words, word) => words.includes(word)
    ? words
    : words.concat(word);

const deduplicatedWords = aBunchOfWords.reduce(skipIfAlreadyFound, []);

Providing a count of all words found:

const incrementWordCount = (counts, word) => {
  counts[word] = (counts[word] || 0) + 1;
  return counts;
};
const wordCounts = words.reduce(incrementWordCount, { });

Reducing an array of arrays, to a single flat array:

const concat = (a, b) => a.concat(b);

const numbers = [
  [1, 2, 3],
  [4, 5, 6],
  [7, 8, 9]
].reduce(concat, []);

Any time you're looking to go from an array of things, to a single value that doesn't match a 1:1, reduce is something you might consider.

In fact, map and filter can both be implemented as reductions:

const map = (transform, array) =>
  array.reduce((list, el) => list.concat(transform(el)), []);

const filter = (predicate, array) => array.reduce(
  (list, el) => predicate(el) ? list.concat(el) : list,
  []
);

I hope this provides some further context for how to use reduce.

The one addition to this, which I haven't broken into yet, is when there is an expectation that the input and output types are specifically meant to be dynamic, because the array elements are functions:

const compose = (...fns) => x =>
  fns.reduceRight((x, f) => f(x), x);

const hgfx = h(g(f(x)));
const hgf = compose(h, g, f);
const hgfy = hgf(y);
const hgfz = hgf(z);

Byte Array to Image object

BufferedImage img = ImageIO.read(new ByteArrayInputStream(bytes));

{
   DataTO.Id = temp;
}

What is the best JavaScript code to create an img element

jQuery:

$('#container').append('<img src="/path/to/image.jpg"
       width="16" height="16" alt="Test Image" title="Test Image" />');

I've found that this works even better because you don't have to worry about HTML escaping anything (which should be done in the above code, if the values weren't hard coded). It's also easier to read (from a JS perspective):

$('#container').append($('<img>', { 
    src : "/path/to/image.jpg", 
    width : 16, 
    height : 16, 
    alt : "Test Image", 
    title : "Test Image"
}));

Auto refresh page every 30 seconds

If you want refresh the page you could use like this, but refreshing the page is usually not the best method, it better to try just update the content that you need to be updated.

   window.location.reload(1);
}, 30000);
</script>

How to stash my previous commit?

If it were me, I would avoid any risky revision editing and do the following instead:

Create a new branch on the SHA where 222 was committed, basically as a bookmark.
Switch back to the main branch. In it, revert commit 222.
Push all the commits that have been made, which will push commit 111 only, because 222 was reverted.
Work on the branch from step #1 if needed. Merge from the trunk to it as needed to keep it up to date. I wouldn't bother with stash.

When it's time for the changes in commit 222 to go in, that branch can be merged to trunk.

What is considered a good response time for a dynamic, personalized web application?

Delaying AngularJS route change until model loaded to prevent flicker

Delaying showing the route is sure to lead to an asynchronous tangle... why not simply track the loading status of your main entity and use that in the view. For example in your controller you might use both the success and error callbacks on ngResource:

$scope.httpStatus = 0; // in progress
$scope.projects = $resource.query('/projects', function() {
    $scope.httpStatus = 200;
  }, function(response) {
    $scope.httpStatus = response.status;
  });

Then in the view you could do whatever:

<div ng-show="httpStatus == 0">
    Loading
</div>
<div ng-show="httpStatus == 200">
    Real stuff
    <div ng-repeat="project in projects">
         ...
    </div>
</div>
<div ng-show="httpStatus >= 400">
    Error, not found, etc. Could distinguish 4xx not found from 
    5xx server error even.
</div>

What are abstract classes and abstract methods?

- Abstract class is one which can't be instantiated, i.e. its object cannot be created.

- Abstract method are method's declaration without its definition.

- A Non-abstract class can only have Non-abstract methods.

- An Abstract class can have both the Non-abstract as well as Abstract methods.

- If the Class has an Abstract method then the class must also be Abstract.

- An Abstract method must be implemented by the very first Non-Abstract sub-class.

- Abstract class in Design patterns are used to encapsulate the behaviors that keeps changing.

Convert unsigned int to signed int C

You are expecting that your int type is 16 bit wide, in which case you'd indeed get a negative value. But most likely it's 32 bits wide, so a signed int can represent 65529 just fine. You can check this by printing sizeof(int).

Direct casting vs 'as' operator?

The as keyword is good in asp.net when you use the FindControl method.

Hyperlink link = this.FindControl("linkid") as Hyperlink;
if (link != null)
{
     ...
}

This means you can operate on the typed variable rather then having to then cast it from object like you would with a direct cast:

object linkObj = this.FindControl("linkid");
if (link != null)
{
     Hyperlink link = (Hyperlink)linkObj;
}

It's not a huge thing, but it saves lines of code and variable assignment, plus it's more readable

Finding the id of a parent div using Jquery

To get the id of the parent div:

$(buttonSelector).parents('div:eq(0)').attr('id');

Also, you can refactor your code quite a bit:

$('button').click( function() {
 var correct = Number($(this).attr('rel'));
 validate(Number($(this).siblings('input').val()), correct);
 $(this).parents('div:eq(0)').html(feedback);
});

Now there is no need for a button-class

explanation
eq(0), means that you will select one element from the jQuery object, in this case element 0, thus the first element. http://docs.jquery.com/Selectors/eq#index
$(selector).siblings(siblingsSelector) will select all siblings (elements with the same parent) that match the siblingsSelector http://docs.jquery.com/Traversing/siblings#expr
$(selector).parents(parentsSelector) will select all parents of the elements matched by selector that match the parent selector. http://docs.jquery.com/Traversing/parents#expr
Thus: $(selector).parents('div:eq(0)'); will match the first parent div of the elements matched by selector.

You should have a look at the jQuery docs, particularly selectors and traversing:

Password Protect a SQLite DB. Is it possible?

You can encrypt your SQLite database with the SEE addon. This way you prevent unauthorized access/modification.

Quoting SQLite documentation:

The SQLite Encryption Extension (SEE) is an enhanced version of SQLite that encrypts database files using 128-bit or 256-Bit AES to help prevent unauthorized access or modification. The entire database file is encrypted so that to an outside observer, the database file appears to contain white noise. There is nothing that identifies the file as an SQLite database.

You can find more info about this addon in this link.

How to define dimens.xml for every different screen size in android?

Android 3.2 introduces a new approach to screen sizes,the numbers describing the screen size are all in “dp” units.Mostly we can use

smallest width dp: the smallest width available for application layout in “dp” units; this is the smallest width dp that you will ever encounter in any rotation of the display.

To create one right click on res >>> new >>> Android resource directory

From Available qualifiers window move Smallest Screen Width to Chosen qualifiers

In Screen width window just write the "dp" value starting from you would like Android Studio to use that dimens.

Than change to Project view,right click on your new created resource directory

new >>> Values resource file enter a new file name dimens.xml and you are done.

Java: Best way to iterate through a Collection (here ArrayList)

None of them are "better" than the others. The third is, to me, more readable, but to someone who doesn't use foreaches it might look odd (they might prefer the first). All 3 are pretty clear to anyone who understands Java, so pick whichever makes you feel better about the code.

The first one is the most basic, so it's the most universal pattern (works for arrays, all iterables that I can think of). That's the only difference I can think of. In more complicated cases (e.g. you need to have access to the current index, or you need to filter the list), the first and second cases might make more sense, respectively. For the simple case (iterable object, no special requirements), the third seems the cleanest.

MySQL query String contains

In addition to the answer from @WoLpH.

When using the LIKE keyword you also have the ability to limit which direction the string matches. For example:

If you were looking for a string that starts with your $needle:

... WHERE column LIKE '{$needle}%'

If you were looking for a string that ends with the $needle:

... WHERE column LIKE '%{$needle}'

Target elements with multiple classes, within one rule

.border-blue.background { ... } is for one item with multiple classes.
.border-blue, .background { ... } is for multiple items each with their own class.
.border-blue .background { ... } is for one item where '.background' is the child of '.border-blue'.

See Chris' answer for a more thorough explanation.

Iterating C++ vector from the end to the beginning

As I don't want to introduce alien-like new C++ syntax, and I simply want to build up on existing primitives, the below snippets seems to work:

#include <vector>
#include <iostream>

int main (int argc,char *argv[])
{
    std::vector<int> arr{1,2,3,4,5};
    std::vector<int>::iterator it;

    // iterate forward
    for (it = arr.begin(); it != arr.end(); it++) {
        std::cout << *it << " ";
    }

    std::cout << "\n************\n";
 
    if (arr.size() > 0) {
        // iterate backward, simple Joe version
        it = arr.end() - 1;
        while (it != arr.begin()) {
            std::cout << *it << " ";
            it--;
        }
        std::cout << *it << " ";
    } 

    // iterate backwards, the C++ way
    std::vector<int>::reverse_iterator rit;
    for (rit = arr.rbegin(); rit != arr.rend(); rit++) {
        std::cout << *rit << " ";
    }

    return 0;
}

Setting initial values on load with Select2 with Ajax

The function which you are specifying as initSelection is called with the initial value as argument. So if value is empty, the function is not called.

How can I access localhost from another computer in the same network?

localhost is a special hostname that almost always resolves to 127.0.0.1. If you ask someone else to connect to http://localhost they'll be connecting to their computer instead or yours.

To share your web server with someone else you'll need to find your IP address or your hostname and provide that to them instead. On windows you can find this with ipconfig /all on a command line.

You'll also need to make sure any firewalls you may have configured allow traffic on port 80 to connect to the WAMP server.

PHP Regex to get youtube video ID?

Use parse_url() and parse_str().

(You can use regexes for just about anything, but they are very easy to make an error in, so if there are PHP functions specifically for what you are trying to accomplish, use those.)

parse_url takes a string and cuts it up into an array that has a bunch of info. You can work with this array, or you can specify the one item you want as a second argument. In this case we're interested in the query, which is PHP_URL_QUERY.

Now we have the query, which is v=C4kxS1ksqtw&feature=relate, but we only want the part after v=. For this we turn to parse_str which basically works like GET on a string. It takes a string and creates the variables specified in the string. In this case $v and $feature is created. We're only interested in $v.

To be safe, you don't want to just store all the variables from the parse_url in your namespace (see mellowsoon's comment). Instead store the variables as elements of an array, so that you have control over what variables you are storing, and you cannot accidentally overwrite an existing variable.

Putting everything together, we have:

<?php
$url = "http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C4kxS1ksqtw&feature=relate";
parse_str( parse_url( $url, PHP_URL_QUERY ), $my_array_of_vars );
echo $my_array_of_vars['v'];    
  // Output: C4kxS1ksqtw
?>

Working example

Edit:

hehe - thanks Charles. That made me laugh, I've never seen the Zawinski quote before:

Some people, when confronted with a problem, think ‘I know, I’ll use regular expressions.’ Now they have two problems. – Jamie Zawinski

How do I add FTP support to Eclipse?

I'm not sure if this works for you, but when I do small solo PHP projects with Eclipse, the first thing I set up is an Ant script for deploying the project to a remote testing environment. I code away locally, and whenever I want to test it, I just hit the shortcut which updates the remote site.

Eclipse has good Ant support out of the box, and the scripts aren't hard to make.

How to convert int[] to Integer[] in Java?

Not sure why you need a Double in your map. In terms of what you're trying to do, you have an int[] and you just want counts of how many times each sequence occurs? Why would this required a Double anyway?

What I would do is to create a wrapper for the int array with a proper .equals and .hashCode methods to account for the fact that int[] object itself doesn't consider the data in it's version of these methods.

public class IntArrayWrapper {
    private int values[];

    public IntArrayWrapper(int[] values) {
        super();
        this.values = values;
    }

    @Override
    public int hashCode() {
        final int prime = 31;
        int result = 1;
        result = prime * result + Arrays.hashCode(values);
        return result;
    }

    @Override
    public boolean equals(Object obj) {
        if (this == obj)
            return true;
        if (obj == null)
            return false;
        if (getClass() != obj.getClass())
            return false;
        IntArrayWrapper other = (IntArrayWrapper) obj;
        if (!Arrays.equals(values, other.values))
            return false;
        return true;
    }

}

And then use google guava's multiset, which is meant exactly for the purpose of counting occurances, as long as the element type you put in it has proper .equals and .hashCode methods.

List<int[]> list = ...;
HashMultiset<IntArrayWrapper> multiset = HashMultiset.create();
for (int values[] : list) {
    multiset.add(new IntArrayWrapper(values));
}

Then, to get the count for any particular combination:

int cnt = multiset.count(new IntArrayWrapper(new int[] { 0, 1, 2, 3 }));

Are the shift operators (<<, >>) arithmetic or logical in C?

When shifting left, there is no difference between arithmetic and logical shift. When shifting right, the type of shift depends on the type of the value being shifted.

(As background for those readers unfamiliar with the difference, a "logical" right shift by 1 bit shifts all the bits to the right and fills in the leftmost bit with a 0. An "arithmetic" shift leaves the original value in the leftmost bit. The difference becomes important when dealing with negative numbers.)

When shifting an unsigned value, the >> operator in C is a logical shift. When shifting a signed value, the >> operator is an arithmetic shift.

For example, assuming a 32 bit machine:

signed int x1 = 5;
assert((x1 >> 1) == 2);
signed int x2 = -5;
assert((x2 >> 1) == -3);
unsigned int x3 = (unsigned int)-5;
assert((x3 >> 1) == 0x7FFFFFFD);

... for output as ... command was very simple and useful.

in addition (beyond the Application.GetSaveAsFilename() Dialog)

it is very simple to set a** new filename** just using

the replace command, so you may change the filename/extension

eg. (as from the first post)

sFileName = "C:\filelocation"
iFileNum = FreeFile

Open sFileName For Input As iFileNum
content = (...edit the content) 

Close iFileNum

now just set:

newFilename = replace(sFilename, ".txt", ".csv") to change the extension

newFilename = replace(sFilename, ".", "_edit.") for a differrent filename

and then just as before

iFileNum = FreeFile
Open newFileName For Output As iFileNum

Print #iFileNum, content
Close iFileNum

I surfed over an hour to find out how to rename a txt-file,

with many different solutions, but it could be sooo easy :)

Truth value of a Series is ambiguous. Use a.empty, a.bool(), a.item(), a.any() or a.all()

Well pandas use bitwise & | and each condition should be wrapped in a ()

For example following works

data_query = data[(data['year'] >= 2005) & (data['year'] <= 2010)]

But the same query without proper brackets does not

data_query = data[(data['year'] >= 2005 & data['year'] <= 2010)]

How to serve up images in Angular2?

If you do not like assets folder you can edit .angular-cli.json and add other folders you need.

  "assets": [
    "assets",
    "img",
    "favicon.ico"
  ]

Print list without brackets in a single row

I don't know if this is efficient as others but simple logic always works:

import sys
name = ["Sam", "Peter", "James", "Julian", "Ann"]
for i in range(0, len(names)):
    sys.stdout.write(names[i])
    if i != len(names)-1:
        sys.stdout.write(", ")

Output:

Sam, Peter, James, Julian, Ann

enable/disable zoom in Android WebView

Lukas Knuth have good solution, but on android 4.0.4 on Samsung Galaxy SII I still look zoom controls. And I solve it via

if (zoom_controll!=null && zoom_controll.getZoomControls()!=null)
{
   // Hide the controlls AFTER they where made visible by the default implementation.
   zoom_controll.getZoomControls().setVisibility(View.GONE);
}

instead of

if (zoom_controll != null){
   // Hide the controlls AFTER they where made visible by the default implementation.
   zoom_controll.setVisible(false);
}

How can you remove all documents from a collection with Mongoose?

In MongoDB, the db.collection.remove() method removes documents from a collection. You can remove all documents from a collection, remove all documents that match a condition, or limit the operation to remove just a single document.

Source: Mongodb.

If you are using mongo sheel, just do:

db.Datetime.remove({})

In your case, you need:

You didn't show me the delete button, so this button is just an example:

<a class="button__delete"></a>

Change the controller to:

exports.destroy = function(req, res, next) {
    Datetime.remove({}, function(err) {
            if (err) {
                console.log(err)
            } else {
                res.end('success');
            }
        }
    );
};

Insert this ajax delete method in your client js file:

        $(document).ready(function(){
            $('.button__delete').click(function() {
                var dataId = $(this).attr('data-id');

                if (confirm("are u sure?")) {
                    $.ajax({
                        type: 'DELETE',
                        url: '/',
                        success: function(response) {
                            if (response == 'error') {
                                console.log('Err!');
                            }
                            else {
                                alert('Success');
                                location.reload();
                            }
                        }
                    });
                } else {
                    alert('Canceled!');
                }
            });
        });

syntax error, unexpected T_ENCAPSED_AND_WHITESPACE, expecting T_STRING or T_VARIABLE or T_NUM_STRING

I stumbled on this question as I had the same error. Mine was due to a slightly different problem and since I resolved it on my own I thought it useful to share here. Original code with issue:

$comment = "$_POST['comment']";

Because of the enclosing double-quotes, the index is not dereferenced properly leading to the assignment error. In my case I chose to fix it like this:

$comment = "$_POST[comment]";

but dropping either pair of quotes works; it's a matter of style I suppose :)

Unable to run Java GUI programs with Ubuntu

I too had OpenJDK on my Ubuntu machine:

How to get jSON response into variable from a jquery script

You should use data.response in your JS instead of json.response.

Force flex item to span full row width

When you want a flex item to occupy an entire row, set it to width: 100% or flex-basis: 100%, and enable wrap on the container.

The item now consumes all available space. Siblings are forced on to other rows.

_x000D_

.parent {
  display: flex;
  flex-wrap: wrap;
}

#range, #text {
  flex: 1;
}

.error {
  flex: 0 0 100%; /* flex-grow, flex-shrink, flex-basis */
  border: 1px dashed black;
}

_x000D_

<div class="parent">
  <input type="range" id="range">
  <input type="text" id="text">
  <label class="error">Error message (takes full width)</label>
</div>

_x000D_

More info: The initial value of the flex-wrap property is nowrap, which means that all items will line up in a row. MDN

iOS 7 status bar back to iOS 6 default style in iPhone app?

My solution was to add a UIView with height of 20 points on top of the window when on iOS 7. Then I created a method in my AppDelegate class to show/hide the "solid" status bar background. In application:didFinishLaunchingWithOptions::

// ...

// Add a status bar background
self.statusBarBackground = [[UIView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0, self.window.bounds.size.width, 20.0f)];
self.statusBarBackground.backgroundColor = [UIColor blackColor];
self.statusBarBackground.alpha = 0.0;
self.statusBarBackground.userInteractionEnabled = NO;
self.statusBarBackground.layer.zPosition = 999; // Position its layer over all other views
[self.window addSubview:self.statusBarBackground];

// ...
return YES;

Then I created a method to fade in/out the black status bar background:

- (void) showSolidStatusBar:(BOOL) solidStatusBar
{
    [UIView animateWithDuration:0.3f animations:^{
        if(solidStatusBar)
        {
            [[UIApplication sharedApplication] setStatusBarStyle:UIStatusBarStyleLightContent];
            self.statusBarBackground.alpha = 1.0f;
        }
        else
        {
            [[UIApplication sharedApplication] setStatusBarStyle:UIStatusBarStyleDefault];
            self.statusBarBackground.alpha = 0.0f;
        }
    }];
}

All I have to do now is call is [appDelegate showSolidStatusBar:YES] when needed.
