Delaying AngularJS route change until model loaded to prevent flicker

I like darkporter's idea because it will be easy for a dev team new to AngularJS to understand and worked straight away.

I created this adaptation which uses 2 divs, one for loader bar and another for actual content displayed after data is loaded. Error handling would be done elsewhere.

Add a 'ready' flag to $scope:

$http({method: 'GET', url: '...'}).
    success(function(data, status, headers, config) {
        $scope.dataForView = data;      
        $scope.ready = true;  // <-- set true after loaded
    })
});

In html view:

<div ng-show="!ready">

    <!-- Show loading graphic, e.g. Twitter Boostrap progress bar -->
    <div class="progress progress-striped active">
        <div class="bar" style="width: 100%;"></div>
    </div>

</div>

<div ng-show="ready">

    <!-- Real content goes here and will appear after loading -->

</div>

Python: Assign print output to a variable

Please note, I wrote this answer based on Python 3.x. No worries you can assign print() statement to the variable like this.

>>> var = print('some text')
some text
>>> var
>>> type(var)
<class 'NoneType'>

According to the documentation,

All non-keyword arguments are converted to strings like str() does and written to the stream, separated by sep and followed by end. Both sep and end must be strings; they can also be None, which means to use the default values. If no objects are given, print() will just write end.

The file argument must be an object with a write(string) method; if it is not present or None, sys.stdout will be used. Since printed arguments are converted to text strings, print() cannot be used with binary mode file objects. For these, use file.write(...) instead.

That's why we cannot assign print() statement values to the variable. In this question you have ask (or any function). So print() also a function with the return value with None. So the return value of python function is None. But you can call the function(with parenthesis ()) and save the return value in this way.

>>> var = some_function()

So the var variable has the return value of some_function() or the default value None. According to the documentation about print(), All non-keyword arguments are converted to strings like str() does and written to the stream. Lets look what happen inside the str().

Return a string version of object. If object is not provided, returns the empty string. Otherwise, the behavior of str() depends on whether encoding or errors is given, as follows.

So we get a string object, then you can modify the below code line as follows,

>>> var = str(some_function())

or you can use str.join() if you really have a string object.

Return a string which is the concatenation of the strings in iterable. A TypeError will be raised if there are any non-string values in iterable, including bytes objects. The separator between elements is the string providing this method.

change can be as follows,

>>> var = ''.join(some_function())  # you can use this if some_function() really returns a string value

Batch Extract path and filename from a variable

if you want infos from the actual running batchfile, try this :

@echo off
set myNameFull=%0
echo myNameFull     %myNameFull%
set myNameShort=%~n0
echo myNameShort    %myNameShort%
set myNameLong=%~nx0
echo myNameLong     %myNameLong%
set myPath=%~dp0
echo myPath         %myPath%
set myLogfileWpath=%myPath%%myNameShort%.log
echo myLogfileWpath %myLogfileWpath%

more samples? C:> HELP CALL

%0 = parameter 0 = batchfile %1 = parameter 1 - 1st par. passed to batchfile... so you can try that stuff (e.g. "~dp") between 1st (e.g. "%") and last (e.g. "1") also for parameters

How to convert a structure to a byte array in C#?

Variant of the code of Vicent with one less memory allocation:

public static byte[] GetBytes<T>(T str)
{
    int size = Marshal.SizeOf(str);

    byte[] arr = new byte[size];

    GCHandle h = default(GCHandle);

    try
    {
        h = GCHandle.Alloc(arr, GCHandleType.Pinned);

        Marshal.StructureToPtr<T>(str, h.AddrOfPinnedObject(), false);
    }
    finally
    {
        if (h.IsAllocated)
        {
            h.Free();
        }
    }

    return arr;
}

public static T FromBytes<T>(byte[] arr) where T : struct
{
    T str = default(T);

    GCHandle h = default(GCHandle);

    try
    {
        h = GCHandle.Alloc(arr, GCHandleType.Pinned);

        str = Marshal.PtrToStructure<T>(h.AddrOfPinnedObject());

    }
    finally
    {
        if (h.IsAllocated)
        {
            h.Free();
        }
    }

    return str;
}

I use GCHandle to "pin" the memory and then I use directly its address with h.AddrOfPinnedObject().

Google.com and clients1.google.com/generate_204

204 responses are sometimes used in AJAX to track clicks and page activity. In this case, the only information being passed to the server in the get request is a cookie and not specific information in request parameters, so this doesn't seem to be the case here.

It seems that clients1.google.com is the server behind google search suggestions. When you visit http://www.google.com, the cookie is passed to http://clients1.google.com/generate_204. Perhaps this is to start up some kind of session on the server? Whatever the use, I doubt it's a very standard use.

Why is null an object and what's the difference between null and undefined?

From "The Principles of Object-Oriented Javascript" by Nicholas C. Zakas

But why an object when the type is null? (In fact, this has been acknowledged as an error by TC39, the committee that designs and maintains JavaScript. You could reason that null is an empty object pointer, making "object" a logical return value, but that’s still confusing.)

Zakas, Nicholas C. (2014-02-07). The Principles of Object-Oriented JavaScript (Kindle Locations 226-227). No Starch Press. Kindle Edition.

That said:

var game = null; //typeof(game) is "object"

game.score = 100;//null is not an object, what the heck!?
game instanceof Object; //false, so it's not an instance but it's type is object
//let's make this primitive variable an object;
game = {}; 
typeof(game);//it is an object
game instanceof Object; //true, yay!!!
game.score = 100;

Undefined case:

var score; //at this point 'score' is undefined
typeof(score); //'undefined'
var score.player = "felix"; //'undefined' is not an object
score instanceof Object; //false, oh I already knew that.

Java Package Does Not Exist Error

How to update Xcode from command line

I had the same issue and I solved by doing the following:

  1. removing the old tools ($ sudo rm -rf /Library/Developer/CommandLineTools)
  2. install xcode command line tools again ($ xcode-select --install).

After these steps you will see a pop to install the new version of the tools.

Adding a simple UIAlertView

UIAlertView *myAlert = [[UIAlertView alloc] 
                         initWithTitle:@"Title"
                         message:@"Message"
                         delegate:self
                         cancelButtonTitle:@"Cancel"
                         otherButtonTitles:@"Ok",nil];

What is the meaning of Bus: error 10 in C

Whenever you are using pointer variables ( the asterix ) such as

char *str = "First string";

you need to asign memory to it

str = malloc(strlen(*str))

Comparison of full text search engine - Lucene, Sphinx, Postgresql, MySQL?

Just my two cents to this very old question. I would highly recommend taking a look at ElasticSearch.

Elasticsearch is a search server based on Lucene. It provides a distributed, multitenant-capable full-text search engine with a RESTful web interface and schema-free JSON documents. Elasticsearch is developed in Java and is released as open source under the terms of the Apache License.

The advantages over other FTS (full text search) Engines are:

  • RESTful interface
  • Better scalability
  • Large community
  • Built by Lucene developers
  • Extensive documentation
  • There are many open source libraries available (including Django)

We are using this search engine at our project and very happy with it.

What is the "right" way to iterate through an array in Ruby?

I think there is no one right way. There are a lot of different ways to iterate, and each has its own niche.

  • each is sufficient for many usages, since I don't often care about the indexes.
  • each_ with _index acts like Hash#each - you get the value and the index.
  • each_index - just the indexes. I don't use this one often. Equivalent to "length.times".
  • map is another way to iterate, useful when you want to transform one array into another.
  • select is the iterator to use when you want to choose a subset.
  • inject is useful for generating sums or products, or collecting a single result.

It may seem like a lot to remember, but don't worry, you can get by without knowing all of them. But as you start to learn and use the different methods, your code will become cleaner and clearer, and you'll be on your way to Ruby mastery.

Setting Custom ActionBar Title from Fragment

How to get the width of a react element

This is basically Marco Antônio's answer for a React custom hook, but modified to set the dimensions initially and not only after a resize.

export const useContainerDimensions = myRef => {
  const getDimensions = () => ({
    width: myRef.current.offsetWidth,
    height: myRef.current.offsetHeight
  })

  const [dimensions, setDimensions] = useState({ width: 0, height: 0 })

  useEffect(() => {
    const handleResize = () => {
      setDimensions(getDimensions())
    }

    if (myRef.current) {
      setDimensions(getDimensions())
    }

    window.addEventListener("resize", handleResize)

    return () => {
      window.removeEventListener("resize", handleResize)
    }
  }, [myRef])

  return dimensions;
};

Used in the same way:

const MyComponent = () => {
  const componentRef = useRef()
  const { width, height } = useContainerDimensions(componentRef)

  return (
    <div ref={componentRef}>
      <p>width: {width}px</p>
      <p>height: {height}px</p>
    <div/>
  )
}

Hibernate table not mapped error in HQL query

Thanks everybody. Lots of good ideas. This is my first application in Spring and Hibernate.. so a little more patience when dealing with "novices" like me..

Please read Tom Anderson and Roman C.'s answers. They explained very well the problem. And all of you helped me.I replaced

SELECT COUNT(*) FROM Books

with

select count(book.id) from Book book

And of course, I have this Spring config:

<bean id="sessionFactory" class="org.springframework.orm.hibernate3.annotation.AnnotationSessionFactoryBean">
<property name="packagesToScan" value="extjs.model"/>

Thank you all again!

jQuery - Detect value change on hidden input field

Although this thread is 3 years old, here is my solution:

$(function ()

function keep_fields_uptodate()
{
    // Keep all fields up to date!
    var $inputDate = $("input[type='date']");
    $inputDate.blur(function(event)
    {
        $("input").trigger("change");

For Loop on Lua

By reading online (tables tutorial) it seems tables behave like arrays so you're looking for:

Way1

names = {'John', 'Joe', 'Steve'}
for i = 1,3 do print( names[i] ) end

Way2

names = {'John', 'Joe', 'Steve'}
for k,v in pairs(names) do print(v) end

Way1 uses the table index/key , on your table names each element has a key starting from 1, for example:

names = {'John', 'Joe', 'Steve'}
print( names[1] ) -- prints John

So you just make i go from 1 to 3.

On Way2 instead you specify what table you want to run and assign a variable for its key and value for example:

names = {'John', 'Joe', myKey="myValue" }
for k,v in pairs(names) do print(k,v) end

prints the following:

1   John
2   Joe
myKey   myValue

How to declare a constant map in Golang?

You can create constants in many different ways:

const myString = "hello"
const pi = 3.14 // untyped constant
const life int = 42 // typed constant (can use only with ints)

You can also create a enum constant:

const ( 
   First = 1
   Second = 2
   Third = 4
)

You can not create constants of maps, arrays and it is written in effective go:

Constants in Go are just that—constant. They are created at compile time, even when defined as locals in functions, and can only be numbers, characters (runes), strings or booleans. Because of the compile-time restriction, the expressions that define them must be constant expressions, evaluatable by the compiler. For instance, 1<<3 is a constant expression, while math.Sin(math.Pi/4) is not because the function call to math.Sin needs to happen at run time.

PNG transparency issue in IE8

PNG transparency pr?bl?m in IE8

Dan's solution worked for me. I was trying to fade a div with a background image. Caveats: you cannot fade the div directly, instead fade a wrapper image. Also, add the following filters to apply a background image:

-ms-filter: "progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.gradient(startColorstr=#00FFFFFF,endColorstr=#00FFFFFF)progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.AlphaImageLoader(enabled='true',sizingMethod='image',src='assets/img/bgSmall.png')"; /* IE8 */   
filter: progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.gradient(startColorstr=#00FFFFFF,endColorstr=#00FFFFFF)progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.AlphaImageLoader(enabled='true',sizingMethod='image',src='assets/img/bgSmall.png');   /* IE6 & 7 */      

Please note that the paths in the src attributes of the filters are absolute, and not relative to the css sheet.

I also added:

background: transparent\9;

This causes IE to ignore my earlier declaration of the actual background image for the other browsers.

Thanks Dan!!!

Best way to install boto in my opinion is to use:

pip install boto-1.6 

This ensures you'll have the boto glacier code.

Deleting a file in VBA

I'll probably get flamed for this, but what is the point of testing for existence if you are just going to delete it? One of my major pet peeves is an app throwing an error dialog with something like "Could not delete file, it does not exist!"

On Error Resume Next
aFile = "c:\file_to_delete.txt"
Kill aFile
On Error Goto 0
return Len(Dir$(aFile)) > 0 ' Make sure it actually got deleted.

If the file doesn't exist in the first place, mission accomplished!

How to properly reference local resources in HTML?

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

Take the following folder structure

demo folder structure

notice:

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

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

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

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

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

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

Show row number in row header of a DataGridView

This worked for me.

Private Sub GridView1_CellFormatting(sender As Object, e As DataGridViewCellFormattingEventArgs) Handles GridView1.CellFormatting
    Dim idx As Integer = e.RowIndex
    Dim row As DataGridViewRow = VDataGridView1.Rows(idx)
    Dim newNo As Long = idx
    If Not _RowNumberStartFromZero Then
        newNo += 1
    End If

    Dim oldNo As Long = -1
    If row.HeaderCell.Value IsNot Nothing Then
        If IsNumeric(row.HeaderCell.Value) Then
            oldNo = CLng(row.HeaderCell.Value)
        End If
    End If

    If newNo <> oldNo Then 'only change if it's wrong or not set
        row.HeaderCell.Value = newNo.ToString()
        row.HeaderCell.Style.Alignment = DataGridViewContentAlignment.MiddleRight

Formatting html email for Outlook

You should definitely check out the MSDN on what Outlook will support in regards to css and html. The link is here: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa338201(v=office.12).aspx. If you do not have at least office 2007 you really need to upgrade as there are major differences between 2007 and previous editions. Also try saving the resulting email to file and examine it with firefox you will see what is being changed by outlook and possibly have a more specific question to ask. You can use Word to view the email as a sort of preview as well (but you won't get info on what styles are/are not being applied.

How to find the first and second maximum number?

If you want the second highest number you can use

=LARGE(E4:E9;2)

although that doesn't account for duplicates so you could get the same result as the Max

If you want the largest number that is smaller than the maximum number you can use this version

=LARGE(E4:E9;COUNTIF(E4:E9;MAX(E4:E9))+1)

Countdown timer in React

Here is a solution using hooks, Timer component, I'm replicating same logic above with hooks

import React from 'react'
import { useState, useEffect } from 'react';

const Timer = (props:any) => {
    const {initialMinute = 0,initialSeconds = 0} = props;
    const [ minutes, setMinutes ] = useState(initialMinute);
    const [seconds, setSeconds ] =  useState(initialSeconds);
    useEffect(()=>{
    let myInterval = setInterval(() => {
            if (seconds > 0) {
                setSeconds(seconds - 1);
            }
            if (seconds === 0) {
                if (minutes === 0) {
                    clearInterval(myInterval)
                } else {
                    setMinutes(minutes - 1);
                    setSeconds(59);
                }
            } 
        }, 1000)
        return ()=> {
            clearInterval(myInterval);
          };
    });

    return (
        <div>
        { minutes === 0 && seconds === 0
            ? null
            : <h1> {minutes}:{seconds < 10 ?  `0${seconds}` : seconds}</h1>

You are right. but here is the simplest way for making the back color of the label transparent In the properties window of that label select Web.. In Web select Transparent :)

Use Fieldset Legend with bootstrap

Just wanted to summarize all the correct answers above in short. Because I had to spend lot of time to figure out which answer resolves the issue and what's going on behind the scenes.

There seems to be two problems of fieldset with bootstrap:

  1. The bootstrap sets the width to the legend as 100%. That is why it overlays the top border of the fieldset.
  2. There's a bottom border for the legend.

So, all we need to fix this is set the legend width to auto as follows:

legend.scheduler-border {
   width: auto; // fixes the problem 1
   border-bottom: none; // fixes the problem 2
}

Get and set position with jQuery .offset()

It's doable but you have to know that using offset() sets the position of the element relative to the document:

Python, HTTPS GET with basic authentication

Update: OP uses Python 3. So adding an example using httplib2

import httplib2

h = httplib2.Http(".cache")

h.add_credentials('name', 'password') # Basic authentication

resp, content = h.request("https://host/path/to/resource", "POST", body="foobar")

The below works for python 2.6:

I use pycurl a lot in production for a process which does upwards of 10 million requests per day.

You'll need to import the following first.

import pycurl
import cStringIO
import base64

Part of the basic authentication header consists of the username and password encoded as Base64.

headers = { 'Authorization' : 'Basic %s' % base64.b64encode("username:password") }

In the HTTP header you will see this line Authorization: Basic dXNlcm5hbWU6cGFzc3dvcmQ=. The encoded string changes depending on your username and password.

We now need a place to write our HTTP response to and a curl connection handle.

response = cStringIO.StringIO()
conn = pycurl.Curl()

We can set various curl options. For a complete list of options, see this. The linked documentation is for the libcurl API, but the options does not change for other language bindings.

conn.setopt(pycurl.VERBOSE, 1)
conn.setopt(pycurlHTTPHEADER, ["%s: %s" % t for t in headers.items()])

conn.setopt(pycurl.URL, "https://host/path/to/resource")
conn.setopt(pycurl.POST, 1)

If you do not need to verify certificate. Warning: This is insecure. Similar to running curl -k or curl --insecure.

conn.setopt(pycurl.SSL_VERIFYPEER, False)
conn.setopt(pycurl.SSL_VERIFYHOST, False)

Call cStringIO.write for storing the HTTP response.

conn.setopt(pycurl.WRITEFUNCTION, response.write)

When you're making a POST request.

post_body = "foobar"
conn.setopt(pycurl.POSTFIELDS, post_body)

Make the actual request now.

conn.perform()

Do something based on the HTTP response code.

http_code = conn.getinfo(pycurl.HTTP_CODE)
if http_code is 200:
   print response.getvalue()

How To Define a JPA Repository Query with a Join

You are experiencing this issue for two reasons.

  • The JPQL Query is not valid.
  • You have not created an association between your entities that the underlying JPQL query can utilize.

When performing a join in JPQL you must ensure that an underlying association between the entities attempting to be joined exists. In your example, you are missing an association between the User and Area entities. In order to create this association we must add an Area field within the User class and establish the appropriate JPA Mapping. I have attached the source for User below. (Please note I moved the mappings to the fields)

User.java

@Entity
@Table(name="user")
public class User {

    @Id
    @GeneratedValue(strategy=GenerationType.AUTO)
    @Column(name="iduser")
    private Long idUser;

    @Column(name="user_name")
    private String userName;

    @OneToOne()
    @JoinColumn(name="idarea")
    private Area area;

    public Long getIdUser() {
        return idUser;
    }

    public void setIdUser(Long idUser) {
        this.idUser = idUser;
    }

    public String getUserName() {
        return userName;
    }

    public void setUserName(String userName) {
        this.userName = userName;
    }

    public Area getArea() {
        return area;
    }

    public void setArea(Area area) {
        this.area = area;
    }
}

Once this relationship is established you can reference the area object in your @Query declaration. The query specified in your @Query annotation must follow proper syntax, which means you should omit the on clause. See the following:

@Query("select u.userName from User u inner join u.area ar where ar.idArea = :idArea")

While looking over your question I also made the relationship between the User and Area entities bidirectional. Here is the source for the Area entity to establish the bidirectional relationship.

Area.java

@Entity
@Table(name = "area")
public class Area {

    @Id
    @GeneratedValue(strategy=GenerationType.AUTO)
    @Column(name="idarea")
    private Long idArea;

    @Column(name="area_name")
    private String areaName;

    @OneToOne(fetch=FetchType.LAZY, mappedBy="area")
    private User user;

    public Long getIdArea() {
        return idArea;
    }

    public void setIdArea(Long idArea) {
        this.idArea = idArea;
    }

    public String getAreaName() {
        return areaName;
    }

    public void setAreaName(String areaName) {
        this.areaName = areaName;
    }

    public User getUser() {
        return user;
    }

    public void setUser(User user) {
        this.user = user;
    }
}

Finding duplicate integers in an array and display how many times they occurred

Ok I have modified your code. This should do the job:

class Program
{
    static void Main(string[] args)
    {
        int[] array = { 10, 5, 10, 2, 2, 3, 4, 5, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 11, 12, 12 };

        for (int i = 0; i < array.Length; i++)
        {
            int count = 0;
            for (int j = 0; j < array.Length; j++)
            {

                if (array[i] == array[j])
                    count = count + 1;
            }
            Console.WriteLine("\t\n " + array[i] + " occurs " + count + " times");
        }
        Console.ReadKey();
    }
}

How to run a function in jquery

Is this the most obfuscated solution possible? I don't believe the idea of jQuery was to create code like this.There's also the presumption that we don't want to bubble events, which is probably wrong.

Simple moving doosomething() outside of $(function(){} will cause it to have global scope and keep the code simple/readable.

OpenCV error: the function is not implemented

Before installing libgtk2.0-dev and pkg-config or libqt4-dev. Make sure that you have uninstalled opencv. You can confirm this by running import cv2 on your python shell. If it fails, then install the needed packages and re-run cmake .

C# find biggest number

You can use the Math.Max method to return the maximum of two numbers, e.g. for int:

int maximum = Math.Max(number1, Math.Max(number2, number3))

There ist also the Max() method from LINQ which you can use on any IEnumerable.

Replace given value in vector

What does the return keyword do in a void method in Java?

See this example, you want to add to the list conditionally. Without the word "return", all ifs will be executed and add to the ArrayList!

    Arraylist<String> list =  new ArrayList<>();

    public void addingToTheList() {

    if(isSunday()) {
        list.add("Pray today")
        return;
    }

    if(isMonday()) {
        list.add("Work today"
        return;
    }

    if(isTuesday()) {
        list.add("Tr today")
        return;
    }
}

What's the difference between window.location= and window.location.replace()?

TLDR;

use location.href or better use window.location.href;

However if you read this you will gain undeniable proof.

The truth is it's fine to use but why do things that are questionable. You should take the higher road and just do it the way that it probably should be done.

location = "#/mypath/otherside"
var sections = location.split('/')

This code is perfectly correct syntax-wise, logic wise, type-wise you know the only thing wrong with it?

it has location instead of location.href

what about this

var mystring = location = "#/some/spa/route"

what is the value of mystring? does anyone really know without doing some test. No one knows what exactly will happen here. Hell I just wrote this and I don't even know what it does. location is an object but I am assigning a string will it pass the string or pass the location object. Lets say there is some answer to how this should be implemented. Can you guarantee all browsers will do the same thing?

This i can pretty much guess all browsers will handle the same.

var mystring = location.href = "#/some/spa/route"

What about if you place this into typescript will it break because the type compiler will say this is suppose to be an object?

This conversation is so much deeper than just the location object however. What this conversion is about what kind of programmer you want to be?

If you take this short-cut, yea it might be okay today, ye it might be okay tomorrow, hell it might be okay forever, but you sir are now a bad programmer. It won't be okay for you and it will fail you.

There will be more objects. There will be new syntax.

You might define a getter that takes only a string but returns an object and the worst part is you will think you are doing something correct, you might think you are brilliant for this clever method because people here have shamefully led you astray.

var Person.name = {first:"John":last:"Doe"}
console.log(Person.name) // "John Doe"

With getters and setters this code would actually work, but just because it can be done doesn't mean it's 'WISE' to do so.

Most people who are programming love to program and love to get better. Over the last few years I have gotten quite good and learn a lot. The most important thing I know now especially when you write Libraries is consistency and predictability.

Do the things that you can consistently do.

+"2" <-- this right here parses the string to a number. should you use it? or should you use parseInt("2")?

what about var num =+"2"?

From what you have learn, from the minds of stackoverflow i am not too hopefully.

If you start following these 2 words consistent and predictable. You will know the right answer to a ton of questions on stackoverflow.

Let me show you how this pays off. Normally I place ; on every line of javascript i write. I know it's more expressive. I know it's more clear. I have followed my rules. One day i decided not to. Why? Because so many people are telling me that it is not needed anymore and JavaScript can do without it. So what i decided to do this. Now because I have become sure of my self as a programmer (as you should enjoy the fruit of mastering a language) i wrote something very simple and i didn't check it. I erased one comma and I didn't think I needed to re-test for such a simple thing as removing one comma.

I wrote something similar to this in es6 and babel

var a = "hello world"
(async function(){
  //do work
})()

This code fail and took forever to figure out. For some reason what it saw was

var a = "hello world"(async function(){})()

hidden deep within the source code it was telling me "hello world" is not a function.

For more fun node doesn't show the source maps of transpiled code.

Wasted so much stupid time. I was presenting to someone as well about how ES6 is brilliant and then I had to start debugging and demonstrate how headache free and better ES6 is. Not convincing is it.

I hope this answered your question. This being an old question it's more for the future generation, people who are still learning.

Question when people say it doesn't matter either way works. Chances are a wiser more experienced person will tell you other wise.

what if someone overwrite the location object. They will do a shim for older browsers. It will get some new feature that needs to be shimmed and your 3 year old code will fail.

My last note to ponder upon.

Writing clean, clear purposeful code does something for your code that can't be answer with right or wrong. What it does is it make your code an enabler.

You can use more things plugins, Libraries with out fear of interruption between the codes.

for the record. use

window.location.href

Find Facebook user (url to profile page) by known email address

The definitive answer to this is from Facebook themselves. In post today at https://developers.facebook.com/bugs/335452696581712 a Facebook dev says

The ability to pass in an e-mail address into the "user" search type was
removed on July 10, 2013. This search type only returns results that match
a user's name (including alternate name).

So, alas, the simple answer is you can no longer search for users by their email address. This sucks, but that's Facebook's new rules.

How to search JSON data in MySQL?

I use this query

SELECT id FROM table_name WHERE field_name REGEXP '"key_name":"([^"])key_word([^"])"';
or
SELECT id FROM table_name WHERE field_name RLIKE '"key_name":"[[:<:]]key_word[[:>:]]"';

The first query I use it to search partial value. The second query I use it to search exact word.

ASP.net Repeater get current index, pointer, or counter

Add a label control to your Repeater's ItemTemplate. Handle OnItemCreated event.

What does android:layout_weight mean?

With layout_weight you can specify a size ratio between multiple views. E.g. you have a MapView and a table which should show some additional information to the map. The map should use 3/4 of the screen and table should use 1/4 of the screen. Then you will set the layout_weight of the map to 3 and the layout_weight of the table to 1.

To get it work you also have to set the height or width (depending on your orientation) to 0px.

How to reload current page in ReactJS?

Since React eventually boils down to plain old JavaScript, you can really place it anywhere! For instance, you could place it on a componentDidMount() in a React class.

For you edit, you may want to try something like this:

class Component extends React.Component {
  constructor(props) {
    super(props);
    this.onAddBucket = this.onAddBucket.bind(this);
  }
  componentWillMount() {
    this.setState({
      buckets: {},
    })
  }
  componentDidMount() {
    this.onAddBucket();
  }
  onAddBucket() {
    let self = this;
    let getToken = localStorage.getItem('myToken');
    var apiBaseUrl = "...";
    let input = {
      "name" :  this.state.fields["bucket_name"]
    }
    axios.defaults.headers.common['Authorization'] = getToken;
    axios.post(apiBaseUrl+'...',input)
    .then(function (response) {
      if (response.data.status == 200) {
        this.setState({
          buckets: this.state.buckets.concat(response.data.buckets),
        });
      } else {
        alert(response.data.message);
      }
    })
    .catch(function (error) {
      console.log(error);
    });
  }
  render() {
    return (
      {this.state.bucket}
    );
  }
}

Stop form refreshing page on submit

Most people would prevent the form from submitting by calling the event.preventDefault() function.

Another means is to remove the onclick attribute of the button, and get the code in processForm() out into .submit(function() { as return false; causes the form to not submit. Also, make the formBlaSubmit() functions return Boolean based on validity, for use in processForm();

katsh's answer is the same, just easier to digest.

sqlite3.OperationalError: unable to open database file

In my case the sqlite db file db.sqlite3 was stored in the DocumentRoot of apache. So, even after setting the following permissions it didn't work:

sudo chown www-data:www-data /path/to/db-folder
sudo chown www-data:www-data /path/to/db-folder/sqlite-db.db

Finally when i moved db.sqlite3 to a newly created folder dbfolder under DocumentRoot and gave the above permissions, and it worked.

How can I change the Java Runtime Version on Windows (7)?

For Java applications, i.e. programs that are delivered (usually) as .jar files and started with java -jar xxx.jar or via a shortcut that does the same, the JRE that will be launched will be the first one found on the PATH.

If you installed a JRE or JDK, the likely places to find the .exes are below directories like C:\Program Files\JavaSoft\JRE\x.y.z. However, I've found some "out of the box" Windows installations to (also?) have copies of java.exe and javaw.exe in C:\winnt\system32 (NT and 2000) or C:\windows\system (Windows 95, 98). This is usually a pretty elderly version of Java: 1.3, maybe? You'll want to do java -version in a command window to check that you're not running some antiquated version of Java.

You can of course override the PATH setting or even do without it by explicitly stating the path to java.exe / javaw.exe in your command line or shortcut definition.


If you're running applets from the browser, or possibly also Java Web Start applications (they look like applications insofar as they have their own window, but you start them from the browser), the choice of JRE is determined by a set of registry settings:

Key: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\JavaSoft\Java Runtime Environment
Name: CurrentVersion
Value: (e.g.) 1.3

More registry keys are created using this scheme:

(e.g.) 
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\JavaSoft\Java Runtime Environment\1.3   
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\JavaSoft\Java Runtime Environment\1.3.1

i.e. one for the major and one including the minor version number. Each of these keys has values like these (examples shown):

JavaHome    : C:\program Files\JavaSoft\JRE\1.3.1
RuntimeLib  : C:\Program Files\JavaSoft\JRE\1.3.1\bin\hotspot\jvm.dll
MicroVersion: 1

... and your browser will look to these settings to determine which JRE to fire up.

Since Java versions are changing pretty frequently, there's now a "wizard" called the "Java Control Panel" for manually switching your browser's Java version. This works for IE, Firefox and probably others like Opera and Chrome as well: It's the 'Java' applet in Windows' System Settings app. You get to pick any one of the installed JREs. I believe that wizard fiddles with those registry entries.

If you're like me and have "uninstalled" old Java versions by simply wiping out directories, you'll find these "ghosts" among the choices too; so make sure the JRE you choose corresponds to an intact Java installation!


Some other answers are recommending setting the environment variable JAVA_HOME. This is meanwhile outdated advice. Sun came to realize, around Java 2, that this environment setting is

  1. unreliable, as users often set it incorrectly, and
  2. unnecessary, as it's easy enough for the runtime to find the Java library directories, knowing they're in a fixed path relative to the path from which java.exe or javaw.exe was launched.

There's hardly any modern Java software left that needs or respects the JAVA_HOME environment variable.

How to make space between LinearLayout children?

You can get the LayoutParams of parent LinearLayout and apply to the individual views this way:

LinearLayout.LayoutParams lp = new LinearLayout.LayoutParams(ViewGroup.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT, ViewGroup.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT);
lp.setMargins(8,8,8,8);
  • Take care that setMargins() take pixels as int data type.So, convert to dp before adding values
  • Above code will set height and width to wrap_content. you can customise it.

$('#registerform').submit();

this will submit btnsubmit =Save as GET value to register.php form.

Finding an element in an array in Java

You can use one of the many Arrays.binarySearch() methods. Keep in mind that the array must be sorted first.

WHERE vs HAVING

These 2 will be feel same as first as both are used to say about a condition to filter data. Though we can use ‘having’ in place of ‘where’ in any case, there are instances when we can’t use ‘where’ instead of ‘having’. This is because in a select query, ‘where’ filters data before ‘select’ while ‘having’ filter data after ‘select’. So, when we use alias names that are not actually in the database, ‘where’ can’t identify them but ‘having’ can.

Ex: let the table Student contain student_id,name, birthday,address.Assume birthday is of type date.

SELECT * FROM Student WHERE YEAR(birthday)>1993; /*this will work as birthday is in database.if we use having in place of where too this will work*/

SELECT student_id,(YEAR(CurDate())-YEAR(birthday)) AS Age FROM Student HAVING Age>20; 
/*this will not work if we use ‘where’ here, ‘where’ don’t know about age as age is defined in select part.*/

Get UTC time in seconds

You say you're using:

time.asctime(time.localtime(date_in_seconds_from_bash))

where date_in_seconds_from_bash is presumably the output of date +%s.

The time.localtime function, as the name implies, gives you local time.

If you want UTC, use time.gmtime() rather than time.localtime().

As JamesNoonan33's answer says, the output of date +%s is timezone invariant, so date +%s is exactly equivalent to date -u %s. It prints the number of seconds since the "epoch", which is 1970-01-01 00:00:00 UTC. The output you show in your question is entirely consistent with that:

date -u
Thu Jul 3 07:28:20 UTC 2014

date +%s
1404372514   # 14 seconds after "date -u" command

date -u +%s
1404372515   # 15 seconds after "date -u" command

What is the difference between concurrent programming and parallel programming?

Different people talk about different kinds of concurrency and parallelism in many different specific cases, so some abstractions to cover their common nature are needed.

The basic abstraction is done in computer science, where both concurrency and parallelism are attributed to the properties of programs. Here, programs are formalized descriptions of computing. Such programs need not to be in any particular language or encoding, which is implementation-specific. The existence of API/ABI/ISA/OS is irrelevant to such level of abstraction. Surely one will need more detailed implementation-specific knowledge (like threading model) to do concrete programming works, the spirit behind the basic abstraction is not changed.

A second important fact is, as general properties, concurrency and parallelism can coexist in many different abstractions.

For the general distinction, see the relevant answer for the basic view of concurrency v. parallelism. (There are also some links containing some additional sources.)

Concurrent programming and parallel programming are techniques to implement such general properties with some systems which expose programmability. The systems are usually programming languages and their implementations.

A programming language may expose the intended properties by built-in semantic rules. In most cases, such rules specify the evaluations of specific language structures (e.g. expressions) making the computation involved effectively concurrent or parallel. (More specifically, the computational effects implied by the evaluations can perfectly reflect these properties.) However, concurrent/parallel language semantics are essentially complex and they are not necessary to practical works (to implement efficient concurrent/parallel algorithms as the solutions of realistic problems). So, most traditional languages take a more conservative and simpler approach: assuming the semantics of evaluation totally sequential and serial, then providing optional primitives to allow some of the computations being concurrent and parallel. These primitives can be keywords or procedural constructs ("functions") supported by the language. They are implemented based on the interaction with hosted environments (OS, or "bare metal" hardware interface), usually opaque (not able to be derived using the language portably) to the language. Thus, in this particular kind of high-level abstractions seen by the programmers, nothing is concurrent/parallel besides these "magic" primitives and programs relying on these primitives; the programmers can then enjoy less error-prone experience of programming when concurrency/parallelism properties are not so interested.

Although primitives abstract the complex away in the most high-level abstractions, the implementations still have the extra complexity not exposed by the language feature. So, some mid-level abstractions are needed. One typical example is threading. Threading allows one or more thread of execution (or simply thread; sometimes it is also called a process, which is not necessarily the concept of a task scheduled in an OS) supported by the language implementation (the runtime). Threads are usually preemptively scheduled by the runtime, so a thread needs to know nothing about other threads. Thus, threads are natural to implement parallelism as long as they share nothing (the critical resources): just decompose computations in different threads, once the underlying implementation allows the overlapping of the computation resources during the execution, it works. Threads are also subject to concurrent accesses of shared resources: just access resources in any order meets the minimal constraints required by the algorithm, and the implementation will eventually determine when to access. In such cases, some synchronization operations may be necessary. Some languages treat threading and synchronization operations as parts of the high-level abstraction and expose them as primitives, while some other languages encourage only relatively more high-level primitives (like futures/promises) instead.

Under the level of language-specific threads, there come multitasking of the underlying hosting environment (typically, an OS). OS-level preemptive multitasking are used to implement (preemptive) multithreading. In some environments like Windows NT, the basic scheduling units (the tasks) are also "threads". To differentiate them with userspace implementation of threads mentioned above, they are called kernel threads, where "kernel" means the kernel of the OS (however, strictly speaking, this is not quite true for Windows NT; the "real" kernel is the NT executive). Kernel threads are not always 1:1 mapped to the userspace threads, although 1:1 mapping often reduces most overhead of mapping. Since kernel threads are heavyweight (involving system calls) to create/destroy/communicate, there are non 1:1 green threads in the userspace to overcome the overhead problems at the cost of the mapping overhead. The choice of mapping depending on the programming paradigm expected in the high-level abstraction. For example, when a huge number of userspace threads expected being concurrently executed (like Erlang), 1:1 mapping is never feasible.

The underlying of OS multitasking is ISA-level multitasking provided by the logical core of the processor. This is usually the most low-level public interface for programmers. Beneath this level, there may exist SMT. This is a form of more low-level multithreading implemented by the hardware, but arguably, still somewhat programmable - though it is usually only accessible by the processor manufacturer. Note the hardware design is apparently reflecting parallelism, but there is also concurrent scheduling mechanism to make the internal hardware resources being efficiently used.

In each level of "threading" mentioned above, both concurrency and parallelism are involved. Although the programming interfaces vary dramatically, all of them are subject to the properties revealed by the basic abstraction at the very beginning.

ORIGINAL ANSWER

Is this what you mean?

http://ryanfait.com/sticky-footer/

This method uses only 15 lines of CSS and hardly any HTML markup. Even better, it's completely valid CSS, and it works in all major browsers. Internet Explorer 5 and up, Firefox, Safari, Opera and more.

This footer will stay at the bottom of the page permanently. This means that if the content is more than the height of the browser window, you will need to scroll down to see the footer... but if the content is less than the height of the browser window, the footer will stick to the bottom of the browser window instead of floating up in the middle of the page.

Let me know if you need help with the implementation. I hope this helps.

How to get Tensorflow tensor dimensions (shape) as int values?

2.0 Compatible Answer: In Tensorflow 2.x (2.1), you can get the dimensions (shape) of the tensor as integer values, as shown in the Code below:

Method 1 (using tf.shape):

import tensorflow as tf
c = tf.constant([[1.0, 2.0, 3.0], [4.0, 5.0, 6.0]])
Shape = c.shape.as_list()
print(Shape)   # [2,3]

Method 2 (using tf.get_shape()):

import tensorflow as tf
c = tf.constant([[1.0, 2.0, 3.0], [4.0, 5.0, 6.0]])
Shape = c.get_shape().as_list()
print(Shape)   # [2,3]

CSS Circular Cropping of Rectangle Image

You need to use jQuery to do this. This approach gives you the abbility to have dynamic images and do them round no matter the size.

My demo has one flaw right now I don't center the image in the container, but ill return to it in a minute (need to finish a script I'm working on).

DEMO

<div class="container">
    <img src="" class="image" alt="lambo" />
</div>

//script
var container = $('.container'),
    image = container.find('img');

container.width(image.height());


//css    
.container {
    height: auto;
    overflow: hidden;
    border-radius: 50%;    
}

.image {
    height: 100%;    
    display: block;    
}

How can I output the value of an enum class in C++11

To write simpler,

int value = static_cast<int>(Color::Blue); // 111

Using LINQ to group by multiple properties and sum

Use the .Select() after grouping:

var agencyContracts = _agencyContractsRepository.AgencyContracts
    .GroupBy(ac => new
                   {
                       ac.AgencyContractID, // required by your view model. should be omited
                                            // in most cases because group by primary key
                                            // makes no sense.
                       ac.AgencyID,
                       ac.VendorID,
                       ac.RegionID
                   })
    .Select(ac => new AgencyContractViewModel
                   {
                       AgencyContractID = ac.Key.AgencyContractID,
                       AgencyId = ac.Key.AgencyID,
                       VendorId = ac.Key.VendorID,
                       RegionId = ac.Key.RegionID,
                       Amount = ac.Sum(acs => acs.Amount),
                       Fee = ac.Sum(acs => acs.Fee)
                   });

jQuery Keypress Arrow Keys

Please refer the link from JQuery

http://api.jquery.com/keypress/

It says

The keypress event is sent to an element when the browser registers keyboard input. This is similar to the keydown event, except that modifier and non-printing keys such as Shift, Esc, and delete trigger keydown events but not keypress events. Other differences between the two events may arise depending on platform and browser.

That means you can not use keypress in case of arrows.

How do I replace a character at a particular index in JavaScript?

The methods on here are complicated. I would do it this way:

This is as simple as it gets.

How to print the value of a Tensor object in TensorFlow?

Basically, in tensorflow when you create a tensor of any sort they are created and stored inside which can be accessed only when you run a tensorflow session. Say you have created a constant tensor
c = tf.constant([[1.0, 2.0, 3.0], [4.0, 5.0, 6.0]])
Without running a session, you can get
- op: An Operation. Operation that computes this tensor.
- value_index: An int. Index of the operation's endpoint that produces this tensor.
- dtype: A DType. Type of elements stored in this tensor.

To get the values you can run a session with the tensor you require as:

with tf.Session() as sess:
    print(sess.run(c))
    sess.close()

The output will be something like this:

array([[1., 2., 3.], [4., 5., 6.]], dtype=float32)

Tips for debugging .htaccess rewrite rules

Regarding 4., you still need to ensure that your "dummy script stub" is actually the target URL after all the rewriting is done, or you won't see anything!

A similar/related trick (see this question) is to insert a temporary rule such as:

RewriteRule (.*) /show.php?url=$1 [END]

Where show.php is some very simple script that just displays its $_GET parameters (you can display environment variables too, if you want).

This will stop the rewriting at the point you insert it into the ruleset, rather like a breakpoint in a debugger.

If you're using Apache <2.3.9, you'll need to use [L] rather than [END], and you may then need to add:

RewriteRule ^show.php$ - [L]

At the very top of your ruleset, if the URL /show.php is itself being rewritten.

How do I set specific environment variables when debugging in Visual Studio?

If you can't use bat files to set up your environment, then your only likely option is to set up a system wide environment variable. You can find these by doing

  1. Right click "My Computer"
  2. Select properties
  3. Select the "advanced" tab
  4. Click the "environment variables" button
  5. In the "System variables" section, add the new environment variable that you desire
  6. "Ok" all the way out to accept your changes

I don't know if you'd have to restart visual studio, but seems unlikely. HTH

        // New screenshot file path with having file name
        screenShotFilePath = folderLocation + File.separator + uniqueId + ".png";

        // Move file to the destination location.
        FileUtils.moveFile(scrFile, new File(screenShotFilePath));
    }

    return screenShotFilePath;
}

Getting date format m-d-Y H:i:s.u from milliseconds

This is based on answer from ArchCodeMonkey.

But just simplified, if you just want something quick that works.

function DateTime_us_utc(){
    return DateTime::createFromFormat('U.u', number_format(microtime(true), 6, '.', ''));
}
function DateTime_us(){
    $now = DateTime_us_utc();
    return $now->setTimeZone(new DateTimeZone(date_default_timezone_get()));
}

So for me then

$now = DateTime_us();
$now->format("m-d-Y H:i:s.u");

Mailto: Body formatting

Forget it; this might work with Outlook or maybe even GMail but you won't be able to get this working properly supporting most other E-mail clients out there (and there's a shitton of 'em).

You're better of using a simple PHP script (check out PHPMailer) or use a hosted solution (Google "email form hosted", "free email form hosting" or something similar)

By the way, you are looking for the term "Percent-encoding" (also called url-encoding and Javascript uses encodeUri/encodeUriComponent (make sure you understand the differences!)). You will need to encode a whole lot more than just newlines.

}

If you mean by 'Null' -> Its elements are null or equals to '' , in this case : Check if the array is empty after filtering all 'null' elements

if(!arr.clean().length){return 'is null'}

Of course ,Add Clean method before :

Array.prototype.clean=function(){return this.filter(function(e){return (typeof  e !=='undefined')&&(e!= null)&&(e!='')})}

Can I access constants in settings.py from templates in Django?

I improved chrisdew's answer (to create your own tag) a little bit.

First, create the file yourapp/templatetags/value_from_settings.py in which you define your own new tag value_from_settings:

from django.template import TemplateSyntaxError, Variable, Node, Variable, Library
from yourapp import settings

register = Library()
# I found some tricks in URLNode and url from defaulttags.py:
# https://code.djangoproject.com/browser/django/trunk/django/template/defaulttags.py
@register.tag
def value_from_settings(parser, token):
  bits = token.split_contents()
  if len(bits) < 2:
    raise TemplateSyntaxError("'%s' takes at least one " \
      "argument (settings constant to retrieve)" % bits[0])
  settingsvar = bits[1]
  settingsvar = settingsvar[1:-1] if settingsvar[0] == '"' else settingsvar
  asvar = None
  bits = bits[2:]
  if len(bits) >= 2 and bits[-2] == 'as':
    asvar = bits[-1]
    bits = bits[:-2]
  if len(bits):
    raise TemplateSyntaxError("'value_from_settings' didn't recognise " \
      "the arguments '%s'" % ", ".join(bits))
  return ValueFromSettings(settingsvar, asvar)

class ValueFromSettings(Node):
  def __init__(self, settingsvar, asvar):
    self.arg = Variable(settingsvar)
    self.asvar = asvar
  def render(self, context):
    ret_val = getattr(settings,str(self.arg))
    if self.asvar:
      context[self.asvar] = ret_val
      return ''
    else:
      return ret_val

You can use this tag in your Template via:

{% load value_from_settings %}
[...]
{% value_from_settings "FQDN" %}

or via

{% load value_from_settings %}
[...]
{% value_from_settings "FQDN" as my_fqdn %}

The advantage of the as ... notation is that this makes it easy to use in blocktrans blocks via a simple {{my_fqdn}}.

Checking oracle sid and database name

The V$ views are mainly dynamic views of system metrics. They are used for performance tuning, session monitoring, etc. So access is limited to DBA users by default, which is why you're getting ORA-00942.

The easiest way of finding the database name is:

select * from global_name;

This view is granted to PUBLIC, so anybody can query it.

Box shadow for bottom side only

Specify negative value to spread value. This works for me:

box-shadow: 0 2px 3px -1px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.1);

An error occurred while executing the command definition. See the inner exception for details

This occurs when you specify the different name for repository table name and database table name. Please check your table name with database and repository.

Call another rest api from my server in Spring-Boot

Instead of String you are trying to get custom POJO object details as output by calling another API/URI, try the this solution. I hope it will be clear and helpful for how to use RestTemplate also,

In Spring Boot, first we need to create Bean for RestTemplate under the @Configuration annotated class. You can even write a separate class and annotate with @Configuration like below.

@Configuration
public class RestTemplateConfig {

    @Bean
    public RestTemplate restTemplate(RestTemplateBuilder builder) {
       return builder.build();
    }
}

Then, you have to define RestTemplate with @Autowired or @Injected under your service/Controller, whereever you are trying to use RestTemplate. Use the below code,

@Autowired
private RestTemplate restTemplate;

Now, will see the part of how to call another api from my application using above created RestTemplate. For this we can use multiple methods like execute(), getForEntity(), getForObject() and etc. Here I am placing the code with example of execute(). I have even tried other two, I faced problem of converting returned LinkedHashMap into expected POJO object. The below, execute() method solved my problem.

ResponseEntity<List<POJO>> responseEntity = restTemplate.exchange(
    URL, 
    HttpMethod.GET, 
    null, 
    new ParameterizedTypeReference<List<POJO>>() {
    });
List<POJO> pojoObjList = responseEntity.getBody();

Happy Coding :)

How to convert a huge list-of-vector to a matrix more efficiently?

You can also use,

output <- as.matrix(as.data.frame(z))

The memory usage is very similar to

output <- matrix(unlist(z), ncol = 10, byrow = TRUE)

Which can be verified, with mem_changed() from library(pryr).

How to use JNDI DataSource provided by Tomcat in Spring?

In your spring class, You can inject a bean annotated like as

@Autowired
@Qualifier("dbDataSource")
private DataSource dataSource;

and You add this in your context.xml

<beans:bean id="dbDataSource" class="org.springframework.jndi.JndiObjectFactoryBean">
    <beans:property name="jndiName" value="java:comp/env/jdbc/MyLocalDB"/>
</beans:bean>

You can declare the JNDI resource in tomcat's server.xml using

<Resource name="jdbc/TestDB" 
  global="jdbc/TestDB" 
  auth="Container" 
  type="javax.sql.DataSource" 
  driverClassName="com.mysql.jdbc.Driver" 
  url="jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/TestDB" 
  username="pankaj" 
  password="pankaj123" 

  maxActive="100" 
  maxIdle="20" 
  minIdle="5" 
  maxWait="10000"/>

back to context.xml de spring add this

<ResourceLink name="jdbc/MyLocalDB"
                global="jdbc/TestDB"
                auth="Container"
                type="javax.sql.DataSource" />

if, like this exmple you are injecting connection to database, make sure that MySQL jar is present in the tomcat lib directory, otherwise tomcat will not be able to create the MySQL database connection pool.

Import file size limit in PHPMyAdmin

This is how i did it:

  1. Locate in the /etc/php5/apache2/php.ini

    post_max_size = 8M
    upload_max_filesize = 2M
    
  2. Edit it as

    post_max_size = 48M
    upload_max_filesize = 42M
    

(Which is more then enough)

Restarted the apache:

sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 restart

Decoding a Base64 string in Java

Commonly base64 it is used for images. if you like to decode an image (jpg in this example with org.apache.commons.codec.binary.Base64 package):

byte[] decoded = Base64.decodeBase64(imageJpgInBase64);
FileOutputStream fos = null;
fos = new FileOutputStream("C:\\output\\image.jpg");
fos.write(decoded);
fos.close();

How do I start an activity from within a Fragment?

The difference between starting an Activity from a Fragment and an Activity is how you get the context, because in both cases it has to be an activity.

From an activity: The context is the current activity (this)

Intent intent = new Intent(this, NewActivity.class);
startActivity(intent);

From a fragment: The context is the parent activity (getActivity()). Notice, that the fragment itself can start the activity via startActivity(), this is not necessary to be done from the activity.

Intent intent = new Intent(getActivity(), NewActivity.class);
startActivity(intent);

Passing additional variables from command line to make

export ROOT_DIR=<path/value>

Then use the variable, $(ROOT_DIR) in the Makefile.

OWIN Security - How to Implement OAuth2 Refresh Tokens

You need to implement RefreshTokenProvider. First create class for RefreshTokenProvider ie.

public class ApplicationRefreshTokenProvider : AuthenticationTokenProvider
{
    public override void Create(AuthenticationTokenCreateContext context)
    {
        // Expiration time in seconds
        int expire = 5*60;
        context.Ticket.Properties.ExpiresUtc = new DateTimeOffset(DateTime.Now.AddSeconds(expire));
        context.SetToken(context.SerializeTicket());
    }

    public override void Receive(AuthenticationTokenReceiveContext context)
    {
        context.DeserializeTicket(context.Token);
    }
}

Then add instance to OAuthOptions.

OAuthOptions = new OAuthAuthorizationServerOptions
{
    TokenEndpointPath = new PathString("/authenticate"),
    Provider = new ApplicationOAuthProvider(),
    AccessTokenExpireTimeSpan = TimeSpan.FromSeconds(expire),
    RefreshTokenProvider = new ApplicationRefreshTokenProvider()
};

Batch script loop

Template for a simple but counted loop:

set loopcount=[Number of times]
:loop
[Commands you want to repeat]
set /a loopcount=loopcount-1
if %loopcount%==0 goto exitloop
goto loop
:exitloop

Example: Say "Hello World!" 5 times:

@echo off
set loopcount=5
:loop
echo Hello World!
set /a loopcount=loopcount-1
if %loopcount%==0 goto exitloop
goto loop
:exitloop
pause

This example will output:

Hello World!
Hello World!
Hello World!
Hello World!
Hello World!
Press any key to continue . . .

Can HTML checkboxes be set to readonly?

No, but you might be able to use javascript events to achieve something similar

Convert IEnumerable to DataTable

There is nothing built in afaik, but building it yourself should be easy. I would do as you suggest and use reflection to obtain the properties and use them to create the columns of the table. Then I would step through each item in the IEnumerable and create a row for each. The only caveat is if your collection contains items of several types (say Person and Animal) then they may not have the same properties. But if you need to check for it depends on your use.

How to use ADB in Android Studio to view an SQLite DB

Easiest Way: Connect to Sqlite3 via ADB Shell

I haven't found any way to do that in Android Studio, but I access the db with a remote shell instead of pulling the file each time.

Find all info here: http://developer.android.com/tools/help/sqlite3.html

1- Go to your platform-tools folder in a command prompt

2- Enter the command adb devices to get the list of your devices

C:\Android\adt-bundle-windows-x86_64\sdk\platform-tools>adb devices
List of devices attached
emulator-xxxx   device

3- Connect a shell to your device:

C:\Android\adt-bundle-windows-x86_64\sdk\platform-tools>adb -s emulator-xxxx shell

4a- You can bypass this step on rooted device

run-as <your-package-name> 

4b- Navigate to the folder containing your db file:

cd data/data/<your-package-name>/databases/

5- run sqlite3 to connect to your db:

sqlite3 <your-db-name>.db

6- run sqlite3 commands that you like eg:

Select * from table1 where ...;

Note: Find more commands to run below.

SQLite cheatsheet

There are a few steps to see the tables in an SQLite database:

  1. List the tables in your database:

    .tables
    
  2. List how the table looks:

    .schema tablename
    
  3. Print the entire table:

    SELECT * FROM tablename;
    
  4. List all of the available SQLite prompt commands:

    .help
    

Using the star sign in grep

'*' works as a modifier for the previous item. So 'abc*def' searches for 'ab' followed by 0 or more 'c's follwed by 'def'.

What you probably want is 'abc.*def' which searches for 'abc' followed by any number of characters, follwed by 'def'.

Find Oracle JDBC driver in Maven repository

I ship opensource under LGPLv2 and even after several email conversations with Oracle they were unclear whether I was allowed to ship their binary JDBC driver with my distribution. The issue related to whether my license was compatible with their OTN terms so they suggested I was not permitted to ship the driver. Presumably related to this part

(b) to distribute the programs with applications you have developed to your customers provided that each such licensee agrees to license terms consistent with the terms of this Agreement

So even if you manage to publish the driver legally in your exclusive/local maven repository there is still the restriction on what you are permitted to do with that artifact. Seems absurd that even if I ship their driver in binary form along with the full OTN license file I still can't use it and must force my users to manually download the Oracle driver and drop into my library path before they can use my software.

Is it possible to read from a InputStream with a timeout?

Assuming your stream is not backed by a socket (so you can't use Socket.setSoTimeout()), I think the standard way of solving this type of problem is to use a Future.

Suppose I have the following executor and streams:

    ExecutorService executor = Executors.newFixedThreadPool(2);
    final PipedOutputStream outputStream = new PipedOutputStream();
    final PipedInputStream inputStream = new PipedInputStream(outputStream);

I have writer that writes some data then waits for 5 seconds before writing the last piece of data and closing the stream:

    Runnable writeTask = new Runnable() {
        @Override
        public void run() {
            try {
                outputStream.write(1);
                outputStream.write(2);
                Thread.sleep(5000);
                outputStream.write(3);
                outputStream.close();
            } catch (Exception e) {
                e.printStackTrace();
            }
        }
    };
    executor.submit(writeTask);

The normal way of reading this is as follows. The read will block indefinitely for data and so this completes in 5s:

    long start = currentTimeMillis();
    int readByte = 1;
    // Read data without timeout
    while (readByte >= 0) {
        readByte = inputStream.read();
        if (readByte >= 0)
            System.out.println("Read: " + readByte);
    }
    System.out.println("Complete in " + (currentTimeMillis() - start) + "ms");

which outputs:

Read: 1
Read: 2
Read: 3
Complete in 5001ms

If there was a more fundamental problem, like the writer not responding, the reader would block for ever. If I wrap the read in a future, I can then control the timeout as follows:

    int readByte = 1;
    // Read data with timeout
    Callable<Integer> readTask = new Callable<Integer>() {
        @Override
        public Integer call() throws Exception {
            return inputStream.read();
        }
    };
    while (readByte >= 0) {
        Future<Integer> future = executor.submit(readTask);
        readByte = future.get(1000, TimeUnit.MILLISECONDS);
        if (readByte >= 0)
            System.out.println("Read: " + readByte);
    }

which outputs:

Read: 1
Read: 2
Exception in thread "main" java.util.concurrent.TimeoutException
    at java.util.concurrent.FutureTask$Sync.innerGet(FutureTask.java:228)
    at java.util.concurrent.FutureTask.get(FutureTask.java:91)
    at test.InputStreamWithTimeoutTest.main(InputStreamWithTimeoutTest.java:74)

I can catch the TimeoutException and do whatever cleanup I want.

No content to map due to end-of-input jackson parser

For one, @JsonProperty("status") and @JsonProperty("msg") should only be there only when declaring the fields, not on the setters and geters.

In fact, the simplest way to parse this would be

@JsonAutoDetect  //if you don't want to have getters and setters for each JsonProperty
public class StatusResponses {

   @JsonProperty("status")
   private String status;

   @JsonProperty("msg")
   private String message;

}

How to parse JSON with VBA without external libraries?

Call me simple but I just declared a Variant and split the responsetext from my REST GET on the quote comma quote between each item, then got the value I wanted by looking for the last quote with InStrRev. I'm sure that's not as elegant as some of the other suggestions but it works for me.

         varLines = Split(.responsetext, """,""")
        strType = Mid(varLines(8), InStrRev(varLines(8), """") + 1)

How do I protect javascript files?

I think the only way is to put required data on the server and allow only logged-in user to access the data as required (you can also make some calculations server side). This wont protect your javascript code but make it unoperatable without the server side code

Get keys of a Typescript interface as array of strings

This should work

var IMyTable: Array<keyof IMyTable> = ["id", "title", "createdAt", "isDeleted"];

or

var IMyTable: (keyof IMyTable)[] = ["id", "title", "createdAt", "isDeleted"];

How do I bind the enter key to a function in tkinter?

Another alternative is to use a lambda:

ent.bind("<Return>", (lambda event: name_of_function()))

Full code:

from tkinter import *
from tkinter.messagebox import showinfo

def reply(name):
    showinfo(title="Reply", message = "Hello %s!" % name)


top = Tk()
top.title("Echo")
top.iconbitmap("Iconshock-Folder-Gallery.ico")

Label(top, text="Enter your name:").pack(side=TOP)
ent = Entry(top)
ent.bind("<Return>", (lambda event: reply(ent.get())))
ent.pack(side=TOP)
btn = Button(top,text="Submit", command=(lambda: reply(ent.get())))
btn.pack(side=LEFT)

top.mainloop()

As you can see, creating a lambda function with an unused variable "event" solves the problem.

Split a python list into other "sublists" i.e smaller lists

Actually I think using plain slices is the best solution in this case:

for i in range(0, len(data), 100):
    chunk = data[i:i + 100]
    ...

If you want to avoid copying the slices, you could use itertools.islice(), but it doesn't seem to be necessary here.

The itertools() documentation also contains the famous "grouper" pattern:

def grouper(n, iterable, fillvalue=None):
    "grouper(3, 'ABCDEFG', 'x') --> ABC DEF Gxx"
    args = [iter(iterable)] * n
    return izip_longest(fillvalue=fillvalue, *args)

You would need to modify it to treat the last chunk correctly, so I think the straight-forward solution using plain slices is preferable.

MySQL Check if username and password matches in Database

1.) Storage of database passwords Use some kind of hash with a salt and then alter the hash, obfuscate it, for example add a distinct value for each byte. That way your passwords a super secured against dictionary attacks and rainbow tables.

2.) To check if the password matches, create your hash for the password the user put in. Then perform a query against the database for the username and just check if the two password hashes are identical. If they are, give the user an authentication token.

The query should then look like this:

select hashedPassword from users where username=?

Then compare the password to the input.

What is the syntax for Typescript arrow functions with generics?

The full example explaining the syntax referenced by Robin... brought it home for me:

Generic functions

Something like the following works fine:

function foo<T>(x: T): T { return x; }

However using an arrow generic function will not:

const foo = <T>(x: T) => x; // ERROR : unclosed `T` tag

Workaround: Use extends on the generic parameter to hint the compiler that it's a generic, e.g.:

const foo = <T extends unknown>(x: T) => x;

iPhone 5 CSS media query

There is this, which I credit to this blog:

@media only screen and (min-device-width: 560px) and (max-device-width: 1136px) and (-webkit-min-device-pixel-ratio: 2) {
    /* iPhone 5 only */
}

Keep in mind it reacts the iPhone 5, not to the particular iOS version installed on said device.

To merge with your existing version, you should be able to comma-delimit them:

@media only screen and (max-device-width: 480px), only screen and (min-device-width: 560px) and (max-device-width: 1136px) and (-webkit-min-device-pixel-ratio: 2) {
    /* iPhone only */
}

NB: I haven't tested the above code, but I've tested comma-delimited @media queries before, and they work just fine.

Note that the above may hit some other devices which share similar ratios, such as the Galaxy Nexus. Here is an additional method which will target only devices which have one dimension of 640px (560px due to some weird display-pixel anomalies) and one of between 960px (iPhone <5) and 1136px (iPhone 5).

@media
    only screen and (max-device-width: 1136px) and (min-device-width: 960px) and (max-device-height: 640px) and (min-device-height: 560px),
    only screen and (max-device-height: 1136px) and (min-device-height: 960px) and (max-device-width: 640px) and (min-device-width: 560px) {
    /* iPhone only */
}

Nested ifelse statement

Using the SQL CASE statement with the dplyr and sqldf packages:

Data

df <-structure(list(idnat = structure(c(2L, 2L, 2L, 1L), .Label = c("foreign", 
"french"), class = "factor"), idbp = structure(c(3L, 1L, 4L, 
2L), .Label = c("colony", "foreign", "mainland", "overseas"), class = "factor")), .Names = c("idnat", 
"idbp"), class = "data.frame", row.names = c(NA, -4L))

sqldf

library(sqldf)
sqldf("SELECT idnat, idbp,
        CASE 
          WHEN idbp IN ('colony', 'overseas') THEN 'overseas' 
          ELSE idbp 
        END AS idnat2
       FROM df")

dplyr

library(dplyr)
df %>% 
mutate(idnat2 = case_when(.$idbp == 'mainland' ~ "mainland", 
                          .$idbp %in% c("colony", "overseas") ~ "overseas", 
                         TRUE ~ "foreign"))

Output

    idnat     idbp   idnat2
1  french mainland mainland
2  french   colony overseas
3  french overseas overseas
4 foreign  foreign  foreign

How can I fill a div with an image while keeping it proportional?

Here is an answer with support to IE using object-fit so you won't lose ratio

Using a simple JS snippet to detect if the object-fit is supported and then replace the img for a svg

_x000D_
_x000D_
//ES6 version
if ('objectFit' in document.documentElement.style === false) {
  document.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded', () => {

Disable Scrolling on Body

To accomplish this, add 2 CSS properties on the <body> element.

body {
   height: 100%;
   overflow-y: hidden;
}

These days there are many news websites which require users to create an account. Typically they will give full access to the page for about a second, and then they show a pop-up, and stop users from scrolling down.

How can I do string interpolation in JavaScript?

Douglas Crockford's Remedial JavaScript includes a String.prototype.supplant function. It is short, familiar, and easy to use:

String.prototype.supplant = function (o) {
    return this.replace(/{([^{}]*)}/g,
        function (a, b) {
            var r = o[b];
            return typeof r === 'string' || typeof r === 'number' ? r : a;
        }
    );
};

// Usage:
alert("I'm {age} years old!".supplant({ age: 29 }));
alert("The {a} says {n}, {n}, {n}!".supplant({ a: 'cow', n: 'moo' }));

If you don't want to change String's prototype, you can always adapt it to be standalone, or place it into some other namespace, or whatever.

How to find out if an item is present in a std::vector?

Use find from the algorithm header of stl.I've illustrated its use with int type. You can use any type you like as long as you can compare for equality (overload == if you need to for your custom class).

#include <algorithm>
#include <vector>

using namespace std;
int main()
{   
    typedef vector<int> IntContainer;
    typedef IntContainer::iterator IntIterator;

    IntContainer vw;

    //...

    // find 5
    IntIterator i = find(vw.begin(), vw.end(), 5);

    if (i != vw.end()) {
        // found it
    } else {
        // doesn't exist
    }

    return 0;
}

clear javascript console in Google Chrome

I use the following to alias cls when debugging locally in Chrome (enter the following JavaScript into the console):

Object.defineProperty(window, 'cls', {
    get: function () {
        return console.clear();
    }
});

now entering cls in the console will clear the console.

jQuery UI Tabs - How to Get Currently Selected Tab Index

Try the following:

var $tabs = $('#tabs-menu').tabs();

var selected = $tabs.tabs('option', 'selected');

var divAssocAtual = $('#tabs-menu ul li').tabs()[selected].hash;

Multiple submit buttons in the same form calling different Servlets

There are several ways to achieve this.

Probably the easiest would be to use JavaScript to change the form's action.

<input type="submit" value="SecondServlet" onclick="form.action='SecondServlet';">

But this of course won't work when the enduser has JS disabled (mobile browsers, screenreaders, etc).


Another way is to put the second button in a different form, which may or may not be what you need, depending on the concrete functional requirement, which is not clear from the question at all.

<form action="FirstServlet" method="Post">
    Last Name: <input type="text" name="lastName" size="20">
    <br><br>
    <input type="submit" value="FirstServlet">
</form>
<form action="SecondServlet" method="Post">
    <input type="submit"value="SecondServlet">
</form>

Note that a form would on submit only send the input data contained in the very same form, not in the other form.


Again another way is to just create another single entry point servlet which delegates further to the right servlets (or preferably, the right business actions) depending on the button pressed (which is by itself available as a request parameter by its name):

<form action="MainServlet" method="Post">
    Last Name: <input type="text" name="lastName" size="20">
    <br><br>
    <input type="submit" name="action" value="FirstServlet">
    <input type="submit" name="action" value="SecondServlet">
</form>

with the following in MainServlet

String action = request.getParameter("action");

if ("FirstServlet".equals(action)) {
    // Invoke FirstServlet's job here.
} else if ("SecondServlet".equals(action)) {
    // Invoke SecondServlet's job here.
}

This is only not very i18n/maintenance friendly. What if you need to show buttons in a different language or change the button values while forgetting to take the servlet code into account?


A slight change is to give the buttons its own fixed and unique name, so that its presence as request parameter could be checked instead of its value which would be sensitive to i18n/maintenance:

<form action="MainServlet" method="Post">
    Last Name: <input type="text" name="lastName" size="20">
    <br><br>
    <input type="submit" name="first" value="FirstServlet">
    <input type="submit" name="second" value="SecondServlet">
</form>

with the following in MainServlet

if (request.getParameter("first") != null) {
    // Invoke FirstServlet's job here.
} else if (request.getParameter("second") != null) {
    // Invoke SecondServlet's job here.
}

Last way would be to just use a MVC framework like JSF so that you can directly bind javabean methods to buttons, but that would require drastic changes to your existing code.

<h:form>
    Last Name: <h:inputText value="#{bean.lastName}" size="20" />
    <br/><br/>
    <h:commandButton value="First" action="#{bean.first}" />
    <h:commandButton value="Second" action="#{bean.Second}" />
</h:form>

with just the following javabean instead of a servlet

@ManagedBean
@RequestScoped
public class Bean {

    private String lastName; // +getter+setter

    public void first() {
        // Invoke original FirstServlet's job here.
    }

    public void second() {
        // Invoke original SecondServlet's job here.
    }

}

How to Implement DOM Data Binding in JavaScript

I'd like to add to my preposter. I suggest a slightly different approach that will allow you to simply assign a new value to your object without using a method. It must be noted though that this is not supported by especially older browsers and IE9 still requires use of a different interface.

Most notably is that my approach does not make use of events.

Getters and Setters

My proposal makes use of the relatively young feature of getters and setters, particularly setters only. Generally speaking, mutators allow us to "customize" the behavior of how certain properties are assigned a value and retrieved.

One implementation I'll be using here is the Object.defineProperty method. It works in FireFox, GoogleChrome and - I think - IE9. Haven't tested other browsers, but since this is theory only...

Anyways, it accepts three parameters. The first parameter being the object that you wish to define a new property for, the second a string resembling the the name of the new property and the last a "descriptor object" providing information on the behavior of the new property.

Two particularly interesting descriptors are get and set. An example would look something like the following. Note that using these two prohibits the use of the other 4 descriptors.

function MyCtor( bindTo ) {
    // I'll omit parameter validation here.

    Object.defineProperty(this, 'value', {
        enumerable: true,
        get : function ( ) {
            return bindTo.value;
        },
        set : function ( val ) {
            bindTo.value = val;
        }
    });
}

Now making use of this becomes slightly different:

var obj = new MyCtor(document.getElementById('foo')),
    i = 0;
setInterval(function() {
    obj.value += ++i;
}, 3000);

I want to emphasize that this only works for modern browsers.

How can I append a query parameter to an existing URL?

For android, Use: https://developer.android.com/reference/android/net/Uri#buildUpon()

URI oldUri = new URI(uri);
Uri.Builder builder = oldUri.buildUpon();
 builder.appendQueryParameter("newParameter", "dummyvalue");
 Uri newUri =  builder.build();

Should I use `import os.path` or `import os`?

As per PEP-20 by Tim Peters, "Explicit is better than implicit" and "Readability counts". If all you need from the os module is under os.path, import os.path would be more explicit and let others know what you really care about.

Likewise, PEP-20 also says "Simple is better than complex", so if you also need stuff that resides under the more-general os umbrella, import os would be preferred.

Meaning of Open hashing and Closed hashing

The name open addressing refers to the fact that the location ("address") of the element is not determined by its hash value. (This method is also called closed hashing).

In separate chaining, each bucket is independent, and has some sort of ADT (list, binary search trees, etc) of entries with the same index. In a good hash table, each bucket has zero or one entries, because we need operations of order O(1) for insert, search, etc.

This is a example of separate chaining using C++ with a simple hash function using mod operator (clearly, a bad hash function)

ActiveMQ or RabbitMQ or ZeroMQ or

I can only add my 2 cents about ActiveMQ but since this is one of the most popular:

The language you want to write in might be important. Although ActiveMQ does have a client for most, their C# implementation is far from complete compared to the Java Library.

This means some basic functionality is flaky (fail-over protocol that ... well ... fails in some cases, no redelivery support) and other simply isn't there. Since .NET doesn't seem to be all that important to the project, development is rather slowish and there doesn't seem to be any release plan. Trunk is often broken so if you do consider this, you might want to consider contributing to the project if you want things to go ahead.

Then there is ActiveMQ itself which has a lot of nice features but some very strange issues aswell. We use the Fuse (Progress) version of activemq for stability reasons but even then there are a couple of weird "bugs" that you want to keep in mind:

  • Brokers that stop sending messages in some occasions
  • Journal Errors making the queue show messages that are not there anymore (they don't get delivered to the consumer but still)
  • Priority is still not implemented (is on the Issues list since the start of human kind)
  • etc. etc.

All and all, it is a pretty nice product IF you can live with its issues:

A) are not afraid to actively get involved when using .NET
B) develop in java ;-)

Win32Exception (0x80004005): The wait operation timed out

I had the same issue. Running exec sp_updatestats did work sometimes, but not always. I decided to use the NOLOCK statement in my queries to speed up the queries. Just add NOLOCK after your FROM clause, e.g.:

SELECT clicks.entryURL, clicks.entryTime, sessions.userID
FROM sessions, clicks WITH (NOLOCK)
WHERE sessions.sessionID = clicks.sessionID AND clicks.entryTime > DATEADD(day, -1, GETDATE())

Will using 'var' affect performance?

I don't think you properly understood what you read. If it gets compiled to the correct type, then there is no difference. When I do this:

var i = 42;

The compiler knows it's an int, and generate code as if I had written

int i = 42;

As the post you linked to says, it gets compiled to the same type. It's not a runtime check or anything else requiring extra code. The compiler just figures out what the type must be, and uses that.

How do I make a comment in a Dockerfile?

Format

Here is the format of the Dockerfile:

We can use # for commenting purpose#Comment for example

#FROM microsoft/aspnetcore
FROM microsoft/dotnet
COPY /publish /app
WORKDIR /app
ENTRYPOINT ["dotnet", "WebApp.dll"]

From the above file when we build the docker, it skips the first line and goes to the next line because we have commented it using #

How to sync with a remote Git repository?

You need to add the original repository (the one that you forked) as a remote.

git remote add github (clone url for the orignal repository)

Then you need to bring in the changes to your local repository

git fetch github

Now you will have all the branches of the original repository in your local one. For example, the master branch will be github/master. With these branches you can do what you will. Merge them into your branches etc

Plotting a fast Fourier transform in Python

The high spike that you have is due to the DC (non-varying, i.e. freq = 0) portion of your signal. It's an issue of scale. If you want to see non-DC frequency content, for visualization, you may need to plot from the offset 1 not from offset 0 of the FFT of the signal.

Modifying the example given above by @PaulH

import numpy as np
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import scipy.fftpack

# Number of samplepoints
N = 600
# sample spacing
T = 1.0 / 800.0
x = np.linspace(0.0, N*T, N)
y = 10 + np.sin(50.0 * 2.0*np.pi*x) + 0.5*np.sin(80.0 * 2.0*np.pi*x)
yf = scipy.fftpack.fft(y)
xf = np.linspace(0.0, 1.0/(2.0*T), N/2)

plt.subplot(2, 1, 1)
plt.plot(xf, 2.0/N * np.abs(yf[0:N/2]))
plt.subplot(2, 1, 2)
plt.plot(xf[1:], 2.0/N * np.abs(yf[0:N/2])[1:])

The output plots: Ploting FFT signal with DC and then when removing it (skipping freq = 0)

Another way, is to visualize the data in log scale:

Using:

plt.semilogy(xf, 2.0/N * np.abs(yf[0:N/2]))

Will show: enter image description here

How to use the "required" attribute with a "radio" input field

TL;DR: Set the required attribute for at least one input of the radio group.


Setting required for all inputs is more clear, but not necessary (unless dynamically generating radio-buttons).

To group radio buttons they must all have the same name value. This allows only one to be selected at a time and applies required to the whole group.

_x000D_
_x000D_
<form>_x000D_
  Select Gender:<br>_x000D_
_x000D_
  <label>_x000D_
    <input type="radio" name="gender" value="male" required>_x000D_
    Male_x000D_
  </label><br>_x000D_
_x000D_
  <label>_x000D_
    <input type="radio" name="gender" value="female">_x000D_
    Female_x000D_
  </label><br>_x000D_
_x000D_
  <label>_x000D_
    <input type="radio" name="gender" value="other">_x000D_
    Other_x000D_
  </label><br>_x000D_
_x000D_
  <input type="submit">_x000D_
</form>
_x000D_
_x000D_
_x000D_

Also take note of:

To avoid confusion as to whether a radio button group is required or not, authors are encouraged to specify the attribute on all the radio buttons in a group. Indeed, in general, authors are encouraged to avoid having radio button groups that do not have any initially checked controls in the first place, as this is a state that the user cannot return to, and is therefore generally considered a poor user interface.

MYSQL Truncated incorrect DOUBLE value

I did experience this error when I tried doing an WHERE EXIST where the subquery matched 2 columns that accidentially was different types. The two tables was also different storage engines.

One column was a CHAR (90) and the other was a BIGINT (20).

One table was InnoDB and the other was MEMORY.

Part of query:

[...] AND EXISTS (select objectid from temp_objectids where temp_objectids.objectid = items_raw.objectid );

Changing the column type on the one column from BIGINT to CHAR solved the issue.

How often should Oracle database statistics be run?

Since Oracle 11g statistics are gathered automatically by default.

Two Scheduler windows are predefined upon installation of Oracle Database:

  • WEEKNIGHT_WINDOW starts at 10 p.m. and ends at 6 a.m. every Monday through Friday.
  • WEEKEND_WINDOW covers whole days Saturday and Sunday.

When statistics were last gathered?

SELECT owner, table_name, last_analyzed FROM all_tables ORDER BY last_analyzed DESC NULLS LAST; --Tables.
SELECT owner, index_name, last_analyzed FROM all_indexes ORDER BY last_analyzed DESC NULLS LAST; -- Indexes.

Status of automated statistics gathering?

SELECT * FROM dba_autotask_client WHERE client_name = 'auto optimizer stats collection';

Windows Groups?

SELECT window_group_name, window_name FROM dba_scheduler_wingroup_members;

Window Schedules?

SELECT window_name, start_time, duration FROM dba_autotask_schedule;

Manually gather Database Statistics in this Schema:

EXEC dbms_stats.gather_schema_stats(ownname=>NULL, cascade=>TRUE); -- cascade=>TRUE means include Table Indexes too.

Manually gather Database Statistics in all Schemas!

-- Probably need to CONNECT / AS SYSDBA
EXEC dbms_stats.gather_database_stats;

Breaking out of a for loop in Java

How about

for (int k = 0; k < 10; k = k + 2) {
    if (k == 2) {
        break;
    }

    System.out.println(k);
}

The other way is a labelled loop

myloop:  for (int i=0; i < 5; i++) {

              for (int j=0; j < 5; j++) {

                if (i * j > 6) {
                  System.out.println("Breaking");
                  break myloop;
                }

                System.out.println(i + " " + j);
              }
          }

Converting string to double in C#

Most people already tried to answer your questions.
If you are still debugging, have you thought about using:

Double.TryParse(String, Double);

This will help you in determining what is wrong in each of the string first before you do the actual parsing.
If you have a culture-related problem, you might consider using:

Double.TryParse(String, NumberStyles, IFormatProvider, Double);

This http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.double.tryparse.aspx has a really good example on how to use them.

If you need a long, Int64.TryParse is also available: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.int64.tryparse.aspx

Define "First"? If the table has a PK then it will be ordered by that, and you can delete by that:

DECLARE @TABLE TABLE
(
    ID INT IDENTITY(1,1) NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY,
    Data NVARCHAR(50) NOT NULL
)

INSERT INTO @TABLE(Data)
SELECT 'Hello' UNION
SELECT 'World' 

SET ROWCOUNT 1
DELETE FROM @TABLE
SET ROWCOUNT 0

SELECT * FROM @TABLE

If the table has no PK, then ordering won't be guaranteed...

Export DataTable to Excel with Open Xml SDK in c#

You could try taking a look at this libary. I've used it for one of my projects and found it very easy to work with, reliable and fast (I only used it for exporting data).

Cannot add or update a child row: a foreign key constraint fails

You're getting this error because there are some value int table2.UserID that is not exists on table1.UserID (I guess that you have setted table2.UserID value manualy before you created this foreign key).
One example for this scene: table1.UserID get values 1,2,3 and table2.UserID get values 4 (add by manual). So when you make a foreign key, they can't find UserID = 4 from table1 and the error will ocurse.
To fix this error, just remove UserID = 4 from table2 or you can empty both of them and then create the foreign key and.
Good luck!

Android Studio installation on Windows 7 fails, no JDK found

Today I found another situation when this problem occures - when you have several JDK, defined in JAVA_PATH. I have:

JAVA_HOME = C:\JAVA\JDK\jdk1.6.0_38;C:\JAVA\JDK\jdk1.7.0_10

So I received this problem with Android Studio setup

But when I've removed one of JDK - problem has been solved:

JAVA_HOME = C:\JAVA\JDK\jdk1.7.0_10

Installation wisard found my jdk and i had a nice night to study studio.

But unfortunatelly even installed studio doesn't work with several jdk. Does anybody know how to fix it?

I hope I've helped someone

How to set width and height dynamically using jQuery

As @Misha Moroshko has already posted himself, this works:

$("#mainTable").css("width", 100);
$("#mainTable").css("height", 200);

There's some advantage to this technique over @Nick Craver's accepted answer - you can also specifiy different units:

$("#mainTable").css("width", "100%");

So @Nick Craver's method might actually be the wrong choice for some users. From the jquery API (http://api.jquery.com/width/):

The difference between .css(width) and .width() is that the latter returns a unit-less pixel value (for example, 400) while the former returns a value with units intact (for example, 400px). The .width() method is recommended when an element's width needs to be used in a mathematical calculation.

Is there a way to link someone to a YouTube Video in HD 1080p quality?

To link to a YouTube video so it plays in HD by default, use the following URL:

https://www.youtube.com/v/VIDEOID?version=3&vq=hd1080

Change VIDEOID to the YouTube video ID that you want to link to. When someone follows the link, it will display the highest-resolution available (up to 1080p) in full-screen mode. Unfortunately, vq=hd1080 does not work on the normal YouTube site (with comments and related videos).

How do I get the last word in each line with bash

there are many ways. as awk solutions shows, it's the clean solution

sed solution is to delete anything till the last space. So if there is no space at the end, it should work

sed 's/.* //g' <file>

you can avoid sed also and go for a while loop.

while read line
do [ -z "$line" ] && continue ;
echo $line|rev|cut -f1 -d' '|rev
done < file

it reads a line, reveres it, cuts the first (i.e. last in the original) and restores back

the same can be done in a pure bash way

while read line
do [ -z "$line" ] && continue ;
echo ${line##* }
done < file

it is called parameter expansion
