How can I add additional PHP versions to MAMP

The easiest solution I found is to just rename the php folder version as such:

  1. Shut down the servers
  2. Rename the folder containing the php version that you don't need in /Applications/MAMP/bin/php. php7.3.9 --> _php7.3.9

That way only two of them will be read by MAMP. Done!

git push rejected: error: failed to push some refs

Just do

git pull origin [branch]

and then you should be able to push.

If you have commits on your own and didn't push it the branch yet, try

git pull --rebase origin [branch]

and then you should be able to push.

Get the date of next monday, tuesday, etc

If I understand you correctly, you want the dates of the next 7 days?

You could do the following:

for ($i = 0; $i < 7; $i++)  
  echo date('d/m/y', time() + 86400 * $i);

Check the documentation for the date function for the format you want it in.

C# - Simplest way to remove first occurrence of a substring from another string

int index = sourceString.IndexOf(removeString);
string cleanPath = (index < 0)
    ? sourceString
    : sourceString.Remove(index, removeString.Length);

Redirect output of mongo query to a csv file

Here is what you can try:

print("id,name,startDate")
cursor = db.<collection_name>.find();
while (cursor.hasNext()) {
    jsonObject = cursor.next();
    print(jsonObject._id.valueOf() + "," + jsonObject.name + ",\"" + jsonObject.stateDate.toUTCString() +"\"")

}

Save that in a file, say "export.js". Run the following command:

mongo <host>/<dbname> -u <username> -p <password> export.js > out.csv

How to use requirements.txt to install all dependencies in a python project

How to set seekbar min and max value

Seek Bar has methods for setting max values but not for setting min value here i write a code for setting minimum seek bar value when we add this code then your seek bar values not less then mim value try this its work fine for me

/* This methods call after seek bar value change */

            public void onProgressChanged(SeekBar seekBar, int progress,
                boolean fromUser) {
            /* Check the current seekbar value is greather than min value*/
            if (progress < MIN_VALUE) {
                /* if seek bar value is lesser than min value then set min value to seek bar */
                seekBar.setProgress(MIN_VALUE);
            }

        }

How to style child components from parent component's CSS file?

As the internet updates I've come across a solution.

First some caveats.

  1. Still don't do it. To clarify, I wouldn't plan on child components allowing you to style them. SOC. If you as the component designer want to allow this then all the more power to you.
  2. If your child doesn't live in the shadow dom then this won't work for you.
  3. If you have to support a browser that can't have a shadow dom then this also won't work for you.

First, mark your child component's encapsulation as shadow so it renders in the actual shadow dom. Second, add the part attribute to the element you wish to allow the parent to style. In your parent's component stylesheet you can use the ::part() method to access

PL/SQL block problem: No data found error

When you are selecting INTO a variable and there are no records returned you should get a NO DATA FOUND error. I believe the correct way to write the above code would be to wrap the SELECT statement with it's own BEGIN/EXCEPTION/END block. Example:

...
v_final_grade NUMBER;
v_letter_grade CHAR(1);
BEGIN

    BEGIN
    SELECT final_grade
      INTO v_final_grade
      FROM enrollment
     WHERE student_id = v_student_id
       AND section_id = v_section_id;

    EXCEPTION
      WHEN NO_DATA_FOUND THEN
        v_final_grade := NULL;
    END;

    CASE -- outer CASE
      WHEN v_final_grade IS NULL THEN

How to install SQL Server Management Studio 2012 (SSMS) Express?

When I installed: ENU\x64\SQLManagementStudio_x64_ENU.exe

I had to choose the following options to get the management Tools:

  1. "New SQL Server stand-alone installation or add features to an existing installation."
  2. "Add features to an existing instance of SQL Server 2012"
  3. Accept the license.
  4. Check the box for "Management Tools - Basic".
  5. Wait a long time as it installs.

When I was done I had an option "SQL Server Management Studio" within my Start Menu.

Searching for "Management" pulled it up faster within the Start Menu.

What is EOF in the C programming language?

You should change your parenthesis to

while((c = getchar()) != EOF)

Because the "=" operator has a lower precedence than the "!=" operator. Then you will get the expected results. Your expression is equal to

while (c = (getchar()!= EOF))

You are getting the two 1's as output, because you are making the comparison "c!=EOF". This will always become one for the character you entered and then the "\n" that follows by hitting return. Except for the last comparison where c really is EOF it will give you a 0.

EDIT about EOF: EOF is typically -1, but this is not guaranteed by the standard. The standard only defines about EOF in section 7.19.1:

EOF which expands to an integer constant expression, with type int and a negative value, that is returned by several functions to indicate end-of-file, that is, no more input from a stream;

It is reasonable to assume that EOF equals -1, but when using EOF you should not test against the specific value, but rather use the macro.

Add element to a list In Scala

You are using an immutable list. The operations on the List return a new List. The old List remains unchanged. This can be very useful if another class / method holds a reference to the original collection and is relying on it remaining unchanged. You can either use different named vals as in

val myList1 = 1.0 :: 5.5 :: Nil 
val myList2 = 2.2 :: 3.7 :: mylist1

or use a var as in

var myList = 1.0 :: 5.5 :: Nil 
myList :::= List(2.2, 3.7)

This is equivalent syntax for:

myList = myList.:::(List(2.2, 3.7))

Or you could use one of the mutable collections such as

val myList = scala.collection.mutable.MutableList(1.0, 5.5)
myList.++=(List(2.2, 3.7))

Not to be confused with the following that does not modify the original mutable List, but returns a new value:

myList.++:(List(2.2, 3.7))

However you should only use mutable collections in performance critical code. Immutable collections are much easier to reason about and use. One big advantage is that immutable List and scala.collection.immutable.Vector are Covariant. Don't worry if that doesn't mean anything to you yet. The advantage of it is you can use it without fully understanding it. Hence the collection you were using by default is actually scala.collection.immutable.List its just imported for you automatically.

I tend to use List as my default collection. From 2.12.6 Seq defaults to immutable Seq prior to this it defaulted to immutable.

Javascript Array inside Array - how can I call the child array name?

I would create an object like this:

var options = { 
    size: ["S", "M", "L", "XL", "XXL"],
    color: ["Red", "Blue", "Green", "White", "Black"]
};


alert(Object.keys(options));

To access the keys individualy:

for (var key in options) {
    alert(key);
}

P.S.: when you create a new array object do not use new Array use [] instead.

What is the meaning of curly braces?

In Python, curly braces are used to define a dictionary.

a={'one':1, 'two':2, 'three':3}
a['one']=1
a['three']=3

In other languages, { } are used as part of the flow control. Python however used indentation as its flow control because of its focus on readable code.

for entry in entries:
     code....

There's a little easter egg in Python when it comes to braces. Try running this on the Python Shell and enjoy.

from __future__ import braces

Remove a git commit which has not been pushed

One way would be to delete the local branch and checkout that branch from the server if your local branch is ahead of remote by multiple commits and you need to uncommit all of them.

AngularJs - ng-model in a SELECT

You can also put the item with the default value selected out of the ng-repeat like follow :

<div ng-app="app" ng-controller="myCtrl">

Git will not init/sync/update new submodules

This means the submodules haven’t been set up correctly and a git submodule add command will have to be executed.

IF SUBMODULES WERE ADDED CORRECTLY

To give some background, when a repo with submodules has been set up correctly someone has already performed a git submodule add command, which does the following things:

  1. create a folder for the submodule to reside in if it doesn’t already exist
  2. clone the project as a submodule
  3. set the submodule parameters in the shareable .gitmodules file
  4. set the submodule parameters in your private .git/config file
  5. create a .git folder for the submodule in your superproject’s private .git/modules folder
  6. and also: record in your superproject’s index for each submodule in which folder it will reside, and in what state it should be (the hash commit code of the submodule.)

Point 3 and 6 are relevant when you clone the superproject, and point 6 indicates whether a git submodule add has been performed correctly and was committed. You can check point 6 by seeing whether the folders in which the submodules should reside are already there and empty (Note: this does not require a .keep or .gitignore mechanism to be in place, since this is part of a Git mechanism.) After cloning the superproject you can also perform a git submodule to see which submodules are expected.

You can then proceed by doing:

  • git submodule

    will show the submodules present in the tree and their corresponding commit hash code, can serve as an initial check to see which submodules are expected

  • git submodule init

    copies the submodules parameters from the repo’s .gitmodules file to your private .git/config file (point 4)

  • git submodule update

    clones the submodules to a commit determined by the superproject and creates the submodules' .git folders under your superproject's .git/modules/ folder (points 2 and 5)

  • git submodule update --remote

    same as update but sets the submodule to the latest commit on the branch available by the remote repo, similar as going in each submodule’s folder afterwards and do a git pull

  • or: git submodule update --init --remote

    which is all of the above combined.

Alternatively, when the repo is set up correctly, you can also do a git clone with the --recursive flag to include the submodules with the init and update performed on them automatically.

IF SUBMODULES WERE NOT ADDED CORRECTLY

But if the submodules are not committed correctly, and the submodules and their corresponding folders are not already recorded in the index, then first every submodule in the .gitmodules file needs to be individually added via git submodule add before one can proceed.

  • Note: as mentioned here, Git does not currently have a command to do this at once for multiple submodules present in a .gitmodules file.

Eclipse interface icons very small on high resolution screen in Windows 8.1

I'm running on a Dell XPS 15. Rather than stuffing around with resolutions and magnifications and all that, I just did the following:

  • Right click the launcher icon
  • Click on "properties"
  • Select the "compatibility" tab
  • Choose "Windows XP (Service Pack 3)" for "Run this program in compatibility mode for:".

Everything seems to work fine and the display looks good (if a bit blurry/pixelly). The only difference i can see is that the title bar is in Windows XP style (oh no!!!).

I'm curious to know if this works for others and if anyone comes across any problems.

How do I find the mime-type of a file with php?

I actually got fed up by the lack of standard MIME sniffing methods in PHP. Install fileinfo... Use deprecated functions... Oh these work, but only for images! I got fed up of it, so I did some research and found the WHATWG Mimesniffing spec - I believe this is still a draft spec though.

Anyway, using this specification, I was able to implement a mimesniffer in PHP. Performance is not an issue. In fact on my humble machine, I was able to open and sniff thousands of files before PHP timed out.

Here is the MimeReader class.

require_once("MimeReader.php");

$mime = new MimeReader(<YOUR FILE PATH>);
$mime_type_string = $mime->getType();     // "image/jpeg" etc.

How do you change the character encoding of a postgres database?

To change the encoding of your database:

  1. Dump your database
  2. Drop your database,
  3. Create new database with the different encoding
  4. Reload your data.

Make sure the client encoding is set correctly during all this.

        fragmentManager.popBackStack(entry.getId(), FragmentManager.POP_BACK_STACK_INCLUSIVE);
    }

Pivoting rows into columns dynamically in Oracle

Oracle 11g provides a PIVOT operation that does what you want.

Oracle 11g solution

select * from
(select id, k, v from _kv) 
pivot(max(v) for k in ('name', 'age', 'gender', 'status')

(Note: I do not have a copy of 11g to test this on so I have not verified its functionality)

I obtained this solution from: http://orafaq.com/wiki/PIVOT

EDIT -- pivot xml option (also Oracle 11g)
Apparently there is also a pivot xml option for when you do not know all the possible column headings that you may need. (see the XML TYPE section near the bottom of the page located at http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/articles/sql/11g-pivot-097235.html)

select * from
(select id, k, v from _kv) 
pivot xml (max(v)
for k in (any) )

(Note: As before I do not have a copy of 11g to test this on so I have not verified its functionality)

Edit2: Changed v in the pivot and pivot xml statements to max(v) since it is supposed to be aggregated as mentioned in one of the comments. I also added the in clause which is not optional for pivot. Of course, having to specify the values in the in clause defeats the goal of having a completely dynamic pivot/crosstab query as was the desire of this question's poster.

Get the decimal part from a double

That may be overhead but should work.

double yourDouble = 1.05;
string stringForm = yourDouble.ToString();
int dotPosition = stringForm.IndexOf(".");
decimal decimalPart = Decimal.Parse("0" + stringForm.Substring(dotPosition));

Console.WriteLine(decimalPart); // 0.05

How to highlight a selected row in ngRepeat?

Each row has an ID. All you have to do is to send this ID to the function setSelected(), store it (in $scope.idSelectedVote for instance), and then check for each row if the selected ID is the same as the current one. Here is a solution (see the documentation for ngClass, if needed):

$scope.idSelectedVote = null;
$scope.setSelected = function (idSelectedVote) {
   $scope.idSelectedVote = idSelectedVote;
};
<ul ng-repeat="vote in votes" ng-click="setSelected(vote.id)" ng-class="{selected: vote.id === idSelectedVote}">
    ...
</ul>

What's the best way to identify hidden characters in the result of a query in SQL Server (Query Analyzer)?

To find them, you can use this

;WITH cte AS
(
   SELECT 0 AS CharCode
   UNION ALL
   SELECT CharCode + 1 FROM cte WHERE CharCode <31
)
SELECT
   *
FROM
   mytable T
     cross join cte
WHERE
   EXISTS (SELECT *
        FROM mytable Tx
        WHERE Tx.PKCol = T.PKCol
             AND
              Tx.MyField LIKE '%' + CHAR(cte.CharCode) + '%'
         )

Replacing the EXISTS with a JOIN will allow you to REPLACE them, but you'll get multiple rows... I can't think of a way around that...

Set formula to a range of cells

Range("C1:C10").Formula = "=A1+B1"

Simple as that.

It autofills (FillDown) the range with the formula.

Getting the folder name from a path

It's also important to note that while getting a list of directory names in a loop, the DirectoryInfo class gets initialized once thus allowing only first-time call. In order to bypass this limitation, ensure you use variables within your loop to store any individual directory's name.

For example, this sample code loops through a list of directories within any parent directory while adding each found directory-name inside a List of string type:

[C#]

string[] parentDirectory = Directory.GetDirectories("/yourpath");
List<string> directories = new List<string>();

foreach (var directory in parentDirectory)
{
    // Notice I've created a DirectoryInfo variable.
    DirectoryInfo dirInfo = new DirectoryInfo(directory);

    // And likewise a name variable for storing the name.
    // If this is not added, only the first directory will
    // be captured in the loop; the rest won't.
    string name = dirInfo.Name;

    // Finally we add the directory name to our defined List.
    directories.Add(name);
}

[VB.NET]

Dim parentDirectory() As String = Directory.GetDirectories("/yourpath")
Dim directories As New List(Of String)()

For Each directory In parentDirectory

    ' Notice I've created a DirectoryInfo variable.
    Dim dirInfo As New DirectoryInfo(directory)

    ' And likewise a name variable for storing the name.
    ' If this is not added, only the first directory will
    ' be captured in the loop; the rest won't.
    Dim name As String = dirInfo.Name

    ' Finally we add the directory name to our defined List.
    directories.Add(name)

Next directory

Java Generics With a Class & an Interface - Together

You can't do it with "anonymous" type parameters (ie, wildcards that use ?), but you can do it with "named" type parameters. Simply declare the type parameter at method or class level.

import java.util.List;
interface A{}
interface B{}
public class Test<E extends B & A, T extends List<E>> {
    T t;
}

Clone Object without reference javascript

While this isn't cloning, one simple way to get your result is to use the original object as the prototype of a new one.

You can do this using Object.create:

var obj = {a: 25, b: 50, c: 75};
var A = Object.create(obj);
var B = Object.create(obj);

A.a = 30;
B.a = 40;

alert(obj.a + " " + A.a + " " + B.a); // 25 30 40

This creates a new object in A and B that inherits from obj. This means that you can add properties without affecting the original.

To support legacy implementations, you can create a (partial) shim that will work for this simple task.

if (!Object.create)
    Object.create = function(proto) {
        function F(){}
        F.prototype = proto;
        return new F;
    }

It doesn't emulate all the functionality of Object.create, but it'll fit your needs here.

C++ array initialization

Yes, this form of initialization is supported by all C++ compilers. It is a part of C++ language. In fact, it is an idiom that came to C++ from C language. In C language = { 0 } is an idiomatic universal zero-initializer. This is also almost the case in C++.

Since this initalizer is universal, for bool array you don't really need a different "syntax". 0 works as an initializer for bool type as well, so

bool myBoolArray[ARRAY_SIZE] = { 0 };

is guaranteed to initialize the entire array with false. As well as

char* myPtrArray[ARRAY_SIZE] = { 0 };

in guaranteed to initialize the whole array with null-pointers of type char *.

If you believe it improves readability, you can certainly use

bool myBoolArray[ARRAY_SIZE] = { false };
char* myPtrArray[ARRAY_SIZE] = { nullptr };

but the point is that = { 0 } variant gives you exactly the same result.

However, in C++ = { 0 } might not work for all types, like enum types, for example, which cannot be initialized with integral 0. But C++ supports the shorter form

T myArray[ARRAY_SIZE] = {};

i.e. just an empty pair of {}. This will default-initialize an array of any type (assuming the elements allow default initialization), which means that for basic (scalar) types the entire array will be properly zero-initialized.

How can I see which Git branches are tracking which remote / upstream branch?

For the current branch, here are two good choices:

% git rev-parse --abbrev-ref --symbolic-full-name @{u}
origin/mainline

or

% git for-each-ref --format='%(upstream:short)' $(git symbolic-ref -q HEAD)
origin/mainline

That answer is also here, to a slightly different question which was (wrongly) marked as a duplicate.

How to persist a property of type List<String> in JPA?

I had the same problem so I invested the possible solution given but at the end I decided to implement my ';' separated list of String.

so I have

public List<String> getArguments() {
    return Arrays.asList(arguments.split(";"));
}

This way the list is easily readable/editable in the database table;

Display the binary representation of a number in C?

Yes (write your own), something like the following complete function.

#include <stdio.h> /* only needed for the printf() in main(). */
#include <string.h>

/* Create a string of binary digits based on the input value.
   Input:
       val:  value to convert.
       buff: buffer to write to must be >= sz+1 chars.
       sz:   size of buffer.
   Returns address of string or NULL if not enough space provided.
*/
static char *binrep (unsigned int val, char *buff, int sz) {
    char *pbuff = buff;

    /* Must be able to store one character at least. */
    if (sz < 1) return NULL;

    /* Special case for zero to ensure some output. */
    if (val == 0) {
        *pbuff++ = '0';
        *pbuff = '\0';
        return buff;
    }

    /* Work from the end of the buffer back. */
    pbuff += sz;
    *pbuff-- = '\0';

    /* For each bit (going backwards) store character. */
    while (val != 0) {
        if (sz-- == 0) return NULL;
        *pbuff-- = ((val & 1) == 1) ? '1' : '0';

        /* Get next bit. */
        val >>= 1;
    }
    return pbuff+1;
}

Add this main to the end of it to see it in operation:

#define SZ 32
int main(int argc, char *argv[]) {
    int i;
    int n;
    char buff[SZ+1];

    /* Process all arguments, outputting their binary. */
    for (i = 1; i < argc; i++) {
        n = atoi (argv[i]);
        printf("[%3d] %9d -> %s (from '%s')\n", i, n,
            binrep(n,buff,SZ), argv[i]);
    }

    return 0;
}

Run it with "progname 0 7 12 52 123" to get:

[  1]         0 -> 0 (from '0')
[  2]         7 -> 111 (from '7')
[  3]        12 -> 1100 (from '12')
[  4]        52 -> 110100 (from '52')
[  5]       123 -> 1111011 (from '123')

C# DataRow Empty-check

AFAIK, there is no method that does this in the framework. Even if there was support for something like this in the framework, it would essentially be doing the same thing. And that would be looking at each cell in the DataRow to see if it is empty.

Combine two OR-queries with AND in Mongoose

It's probably easiest to create your query object directly as:

  Test.find({
      $and: [
          { $or: [{a: 1}, {b: 1}] },
          { $or: [{c: 1}, {d: 1}] }
      ]
  }, function (err, results) {
      ...
  }

But you can also use the Query#and helper that's available in recent 3.x Mongoose releases:

  Test.find()
      .and([
          { $or: [{a: 1}, {b: 1}] },
          { $or: [{c: 1}, {d: 1}] }
      ])
      .exec(function (err, results) {
          ...
      });

What is Turing Complete?

Super-brief summary from what Professor Brasilford explains in this video.

Turing Complete ? do anything that a Turing Machine can do.

  1. It has conditional branching (i.e. "if statement"). Also, implies "go to" and thus permitting loop.

  2. It has arbitrary amount of memory (e.g. long enough tape) that the program needs.

Checking if a variable is initialized

There is no way of checking of the contents of a variable are undefined or not. The best thing you can do is to assign a signal/sentinel value (for example in the constructor) to indicate that further initialization will need to be carried out.

Use Ant for running program with command line arguments

If you do not want to handle separate properties for each possible argument, I suggest you'd use:

<arg line="${args}"/>

You can check if the property is not set using a specific target with an unless attribute and inside do:

<input message="Type the desired command line arguments:" addProperty="args"/>

Putting it all together gives:

<target name="run" depends="compile, input-runargs" description="run the project">
  <!-- You can use exec here, depending on your needs -->
  <java classname="Main">
    <arg line="${args}"/>
  </java>
</target>
<target name="input-runargs" unless="args" description="prompts for command line arguments if necessary">
  <input addProperty="args" message="Type the desired command line arguments:"/>
</target>

You can use it as follows:

ant
ant run
ant run -Dargs='--help'

The first two commands will prompt for the command-line arguments, whereas the latter won't.

How can I convert a DateTime to the number of seconds since 1970?

That approach will be good if the date-time in question is in UTC, or represents local time in an area that has never observed daylight saving time. The DateTime difference routines do not take into account Daylight Saving Time, and consequently will regard midnight June 1 as being a multiple of 24 hours after midnight January 1. I'm unaware of anything in Windows that reports historical daylight-saving rules for the current locale, so I don't think there's any good way to correctly handle any time prior to the most recent daylight-saving rule change.

centos: Another MySQL daemon already running with the same unix socket

To prevent the problem from occurring, you must perform a graceful shutdown of the server from the command line rather than powering off the server.

# shutdown -h now

This will stop the running services before powering down the machine.

Based on Centos, an additional method for getting it back up again when you run into this problem is to move mysql.sock:

# mv /var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock /var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock.bak

# service mysqld start

Restarting the service creates a new entry called mqsql.sock

SQL Server converting varbinary to string

If you want to convert a single VARBINARY value into VARCHAR (STRING) you can do by declaring a variable like this:

DECLARE @var VARBINARY(MAX)
SET @var = 0x21232F297A57A5A743894A0E4A801FC3
SELECT CAST(@var AS VARCHAR(MAX))

If you are trying to select from table column then you can do like this:

SELECT CAST(myBinaryCol AS VARCHAR(MAX))
FROM myTable

How to format a duration in java? (e.g format H:MM:SS)

My library Time4J offers a pattern-based solution (similar to Apache DurationFormatUtils, but more flexible):

Duration<ClockUnit> duration =
    Duration.of(-573421, ClockUnit.SECONDS) // input in seconds only
    .with(Duration.STD_CLOCK_PERIOD); // performs normalization to h:mm:ss-structure
String fs = Duration.formatter(ClockUnit.class, "+##h:mm:ss").format(duration);
System.out.println(fs); // output => -159:17:01

This code demonstrates the capabilities to handle hour overflow and sign handling, see also the API of duration-formatter based on pattern.

In SQL how to compare date values?

In standard SQL syntax, you would use:

WHERE mydate <= DATE '2008-11-20'

That is, the keyword DATE should precede the string. In some DBMS, however, you don't need to be that explicit; the system will convert the DATE column into a string, or the string into a DATE value, automatically. There are nominally some interesting implications if the DATE is converted into a string - if you happen to have dates in the first millennium (0001-01-01 .. 0999-12-31) and the leading zero(es) are omitted by the formatting system.

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

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

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

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

When you use Activate it automatically activates the workbook.

Note you can select >1 sheet in a workbook:

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

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

TypeScript, Looping through a dictionary

There is one caveat to the key/value loop that Ian mentioned. If it is possible that the Objects may have attributes attached to their Prototype, and when you use the in operator, these attributes will be included. So you will want to make sure that the key is an attribute of your instance, and not of the prototype. Older IEs are known for having indexof(v) show up as a key.

for (const key in myDictionary) {
    if (myDictionary.hasOwnProperty(key)) {
        let value = myDictionary[key];
    }
}

PuTTY Connection Manager download?

I've found version 0.7.1 Alpha of PuTTY Connection Manager to be the most stable (it was previously hidden on the forums). It's available from PuTTY Connection Manager – Website Down.

Android load from URL to Bitmap

Follow method to get url to bitmap in android just pass link of this image and get bitmap.

public static Bitmap getBitmapFromURL(String imgUrl) {
    try {
        URL url = new URL(imgUrl);
        HttpURLConnection connection = (HttpURLConnection) url.openConnection();
        connection.setDoInput(true);
        connection.connect();
        InputStream input = connection.getInputStream();
        Bitmap myBitmap = BitmapFactory.decodeStream(input);
        return myBitmap;
    } catch (IOException e) {
        // Log exception
        return null;
    }
}

add an element to int [] array in java

You could also try this.

public static int[] addOneIntToArray(int[] initialArray , int newValue) {

    int[] newArray = new int[initialArray.length + 1];
    for (int index = 0; index < initialArray.length; index++) {
        newArray[index] = initialArray[index];
    }

    newArray[newArray.length - 1] = newValue;
    return newArray;
}

send mail from linux terminal in one line

mail can represent quite a couple of programs on a linux system. What you want behind it is either sendmail or postfix. I recommend the latter.

You can install it via your favorite package manager. Then you have to configure it, and once you have done that, you can send email like this:

 echo "My message" | mail -s subject [email protected]

See the manual for more information.

As far as configuring postfix goes, there's plenty of articles on the internet on how to do it. Unless you're on a public server with a registered domain, you generally want to forward the email to a SMTP server that you can send email from.

For gmail, for example, follow http://rtcamp.com/tutorials/linux/ubuntu-postfix-gmail-smtp/ or any other similar tutorial.

How to get the instance id from within an ec2 instance?

See the EC2 documentation on the subject.

Run:

wget -q -O - http://169.254.169.254/latest/meta-data/instance-id

If you need programmatic access to the instance ID from within a script,

die() { status=$1; shift; echo "FATAL: $*"; exit $status; }
EC2_INSTANCE_ID="`wget -q -O - http://169.254.169.254/latest/meta-data/instance-id || die \"wget instance-id has failed: $?\"`"

Here is an example of a more advanced use (retrieve instance ID as well as availability zone and region, etc.):

EC2_INSTANCE_ID="`wget -q -O - http://169.254.169.254/latest/meta-data/instance-id || die \"wget instance-id has failed: $?\"`"
test -n "$EC2_INSTANCE_ID" || die 'cannot obtain instance-id'
EC2_AVAIL_ZONE="`wget -q -O - http://169.254.169.254/latest/meta-data/placement/availability-zone || die \"wget availability-zone has failed: $?\"`"
test -n "$EC2_AVAIL_ZONE" || die 'cannot obtain availability-zone'
EC2_REGION="`echo \"$EC2_AVAIL_ZONE\" | sed -e 's:\([0-9][0-9]*\)[a-z]*\$:\\1:'`"

You may also use curl instead of wget, depending on what is installed on your platform.

Current Subversion revision command

svn info, I believe, is what you want.

If you just wanted the revision, maybe you could do something like:

svn info | grep "Revision:"

SQL 'LIKE' query using '%' where the search criteria contains '%'

Select * from table where name like search_criteria

if you are expecting the user to add their own wildcards...

Combining "LIKE" and "IN" for SQL Server

No, you will have to use OR to combine your LIKE statements:

SELECT 
   * 
FROM 
   table
WHERE 
   column LIKE 'Text%' OR 
   column LIKE 'Link%' OR 
   column LIKE 'Hello%' OR
   column LIKE '%World%'

Have you looked at Full-Text Search?

AWK to print field $2 first, then field $1

The awk is ok. I'm guessing the file is from a windows system and has a CR (^m ascii 0x0d) on the end of the line.

This will cause the cursor to go to the start of the line after $2.

Use dos2unix or vi with :se ff=unix to get rid of the CRs.

How to count the occurrence of certain item in an ndarray?

Convert your array y to list l and then do l.count(1) and l.count(0)

>>> y = numpy.array([0, 0, 0, 1, 0, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1])
>>> l = list(y)
>>> l.count(1)
4
>>> l.count(0)

How can I create a unique constraint on my column (SQL Server 2008 R2)?

One thing not clearly covered is that microsoft sql is creating in the background an unique index for the added constraint

create table Customer ( id int primary key identity (1,1) , name nvarchar(128) ) 

--Commands completed successfully.

sp_help Customer

---> index
--index_name    index_description   index_keys
--PK__Customer__3213E83FCC4A1DFA    clustered, unique, primary key located on PRIMARY   id

---> constraint
--constraint_type   constraint_name delete_action   update_action   status_enabled  status_for_replication  constraint_keys
--PRIMARY KEY (clustered)   PK__Customer__3213E83FCC4A1DFA  (n/a)   (n/a)   (n/a)   (n/a)   id


---- now adding the unique constraint

ALTER TABLE Customer ADD CONSTRAINT U_Name UNIQUE(Name)

-- Commands completed successfully.

sp_help Customer

---> index
---index_name   index_description   index_keys
---PK__Customer__3213E83FCC4A1DFA   clustered, unique, primary key located on PRIMARY   id
---U_Name   nonclustered, unique, unique key located on PRIMARY name

---> constraint
---constraint_type  constraint_name delete_action   update_action   status_enabled  status_for_replication  constraint_keys
---PRIMARY KEY (clustered)  PK__Customer__3213E83FCC4A1DFA  (n/a)   (n/a)   (n/a)   (n/a)   id
---UNIQUE (non-clustered)   U_Name  (n/a)   (n/a)   (n/a)   (n/a)   name

as you can see , there is a new constraint and a new index U_Name

Nested rows with bootstrap grid system?

Adding to what @KyleMit said, consider using:

  • col-md-* classes for the larger outer columns
  • col-xs-* classes for the smaller inner columns

This will be useful when you view the page on different screen sizes.

On a small screen, the wrapping of larger outer columns will then happen while maintaining the smaller inner columns, if possible

CSS: Center block, but align contents to the left

I've found the easiest way to centre and left-align text inside a container is the following:

HTML:

<div>
  <p>Some interesting text.</p>
</div>

CSS:

P {
  width: 50%; //or whatever looks best
  margin: auto; //top and bottom margin can be added for aesthetic effect
}

Hope this is what you were looking for as it took me quite a bit of searching just to figure out this pretty basic solution.

How do I format a number in Java?

You and String.format() will be new best friends!

How can I replace a newline (\n) using sed?

Here is sed without buffers (good for real time output).
Example: replacing \n with <br/> break in HTML

echo -e "1\n2\n3" | sed 's/.*$/&<br\/>/'

Build error, This project references NuGet

This problem appeared for me when I was creating folders in the filesystem (not in my solution) and moved some projects around.

Turns out that the package paths are relative from the csproj files. So I had to change the "HintPath" of my references:

<Reference Include="EntityFramework, Version=6.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089, processorArchitecture=MSIL">
    <HintPath>..\packages\EntityFramework.6.1.3\lib\net45\EntityFramework.dll</HintPath>
    <Private>True</Private>
</Reference>

To:

<Reference Include="EntityFramework, Version=6.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089, processorArchitecture=MSIL">
    <HintPath>..\..\packages\EntityFramework.6.1.3\lib\net45\EntityFramework.dll</HintPath>
    <Private>True</Private>
</Reference>

Notice the double "..\" in 'HintPath'.

I also had to change my error conditions, for example I had to change:

<Error Condition="!Exists('..\packages\Microsoft.Net.Compilers.1.1.1\build\Microsoft.Net.Compilers.props')" Text="$([System.String]::Format('$(ErrorText)', '..\packages\Microsoft.Net.Compilers.1.1.1\build\Microsoft.Net.Compilers.props'))" />

To:

<Error Condition="!Exists('..\..\packages\Microsoft.Net.Compilers.1.1.1\build\Microsoft.Net.Compilers.props')" Text="$([System.String]::Format('$(ErrorText)', '..\..\packages\Microsoft.Net.Compilers.1.1.1\build\Microsoft.Net.Compilers.props'))" />

Again, notice the double "..\".

LaTeX table too wide. How to make it fit?

Use p{width} column specifier: e.g. \begin{tabular}{ l p{10cm} } will put column's content into 10cm-wide parbox, and the text will be properly broken to several lines, like in normal paragraph.

You can also use tabular* environment to specify width for the entire table.

OpenSSL Command to check if a server is presenting a certificate

I was getting the below as well trying to get out to github.com as our proxy re-writes the HTTPS connection with their self-signed cert:

no peer certificate available No client certificate CA names sent

In my output there was also:

Protocol : TLSv1.3

I added -tls1_2 and it worked fine and now I can see which CA it is using on the outgoing request. e.g.:
openssl s_client -connect github.com:443 -tls1_2

Flask-SQLalchemy update a row's information

This does not work if you modify a pickled attribute of the model. Pickled attributes should be replaced in order to trigger updates:

from flask import Flask
from flask.ext.sqlalchemy import SQLAlchemy
from pprint import pprint

app = Flask(__name__)
app.config['SQLALCHEMY_DATABASE_URI'] = 'sqllite:////tmp/users.db'
db = SQLAlchemy(app)


class User(db.Model):
    id = db.Column(db.Integer, primary_key=True)
    name = db.Column(db.String(80), unique=True)
    data = db.Column(db.PickleType())

    def __init__(self, name, data):
        self.name = name
        self.data = data

    def __repr__(self):
        return '<User %r>' % self.username

db.create_all()

# Create a user.
bob = User('Bob', {})
db.session.add(bob)
db.session.commit()

# Retrieve the row by its name.
bob = User.query.filter_by(name='Bob').first()
pprint(bob.data)  # {}

# Modifying data is ignored.
bob.data['foo'] = 123
db.session.commit()
bob = User.query.filter_by(name='Bob').first()
pprint(bob.data)  # {}

# Replacing data is respected.
bob.data = {'bar': 321}
db.session.commit()
bob = User.query.filter_by(name='Bob').first()
pprint(bob.data)  # {'bar': 321}

# Modifying data is ignored.
bob.data['moo'] = 789
db.session.commit()
bob = User.query.filter_by(name='Bob').first()
pprint(bob.data)  # {'bar': 321}

Where can I set environment variables that crontab will use?

Expanding on @Robert Brisita has just expand , also if you don't want to set up all the variables of the profile in the script, you can select the variables to export on the top of the script

In crontab -e file:

SHELL=/bin/bash

*/1 * * * * /Path/to/script/script.sh

In script.sh

#!/bin/bash
export JAVA_HOME=/path/to/jdk

Unicode character as bullet for list-item in CSS

I've been through this whole list and there are partially correct and partially incorrect elements right through, as of 2020.

I found that the indent and offset was the biggest problem when using UTF-8, so I'm posting this as a 2020 compatible CSS solution using the "upright triangle" bullet as my example.

ul {
    list-style: none;
    text-indent: -2em; // needs to be 1 + ( 2 x margin), and the result 'negative'
}

ul li:before {
    content: "\25B2";
    margin: 0 0.5em; // 0.5 x 2 = 1, + 1 offset to get the bullet back in the right spot
}

use em as the unit to avoid conflict with font sizing

UnicodeDecodeError, invalid continuation byte

This happened to me also, while i was reading text containing Hebrew from a .txt file.

I clicked: file -> save as and I saved this file as a UTF-8 encoding

how to transfer a file through SFTP in java?

Try this code.

    int SFTPPORT = 22;
    String SFTPUSER = "username";
    String SFTPPASS = "password";

        config.put("StrictHostKeyChecking", "no");
        session.setConfig(config);
        session.connect();
        System.out.println("Host connected.");
        channel = session.openChannel("sftp");
        channel.connect();
        System.out.println("sftp channel opened and connected.");
        channelSftp = (ChannelSftp) channel;
        channelSftp.cd(SFTPWORKINGDIR);
        File f = new File(fileName);
        channelSftp.put(new FileInputStream(f), f.getName());

    } catch (Exception ex) {
        System.out.println("Exception found while tranfer the response.");
    } finally {
        channelSftp.exit();
        System.out.println("sftp Channel exited.");
        channel.disconnect();
        System.out.println("Channel disconnected.");
        session.disconnect();
        System.out.println("Host Session disconnected.");
    }

jQuery Ajax simple call

You could also make the ajax call more generic, reusable, so you can call it from different CRUD(create, read, update, delete) tasks for example and treat the success cases from those calls.

makePostCall = function (url, data) { // here the data and url are not hardcoded anymore
   var json_data = JSON.stringify(data);

    return $.ajax({
        type: "POST",
        url: url,
        data: json_data,
        dataType: "json",
        contentType: "application/json;charset=utf-8"
    });
}

// and here a call example
makePostCall("index.php?action=READUSERS", {'city' : 'Tokio'})
    .success(function(data){
               // treat the READUSERS data returned
   })
    .fail(function(sender, message, details){
           alert("Sorry, something went wrong!");
  });

How can I write data in YAML format in a file?

Link to the PyYAML documentation showing the difference for the default_flow_style parameter. To write it to a file in block mode (often more readable):

d = {'A':'a', 'B':{'C':'c', 'D':'d', 'E':'e'}}
with open('result.yml', 'w') as yaml_file:
    yaml.dump(d, yaml_file, default_flow_style=False)

produces:

A: a
B:
  C: c
  D: d
  E: e

How can I manually generate a .pyc file from a .py file

To match the original question requirements (source path and destination path) the code should be like that:

import py_compile
py_compile.compile(py_filepath, pyc_filepath)

If the input code has errors then the py_compile.PyCompileError exception is raised.

How to add multiple classes to a ReactJS Component?

I use classnames when there is a fair amount of logic required for deciding the classes to (not) use. An overly simple example:

...
    var liClasses = classNames({
      'main-class': true,
      'activeClass': self.state.focused === index
    });

    return (<li className={liClasses}>{data.name}</li>);
...

That said, if you don't want to include a dependency then there are better answers below.

webpack is not recognized as a internal or external command,operable program or batch file

npm cache clean --force
npm install -g webpack

Note - Run these commands as administrator. Once installed then close your command prompt and restart it to see the applied changes.

Makefile to compile multiple C programs?

A simple program's compilation workflow is simple, I can draw it as a small graph: source -> [compilation] -> object [linking] -> executable. There are files (source, object, executable) in this graph, and rules (make's terminology). That graph is definied in the Makefile.

When you launch make, it reads Makefile, and checks for changed files. If there's any, it triggers the rule, which depends on it. The rule may produce/update further files, which may trigger other rules and so on. If you create a good makefile, only the necessary rules (compiler/link commands) will run, which stands "to next" from the modified file in the dependency path.

Pick an example Makefile, read the manual for syntax (anyway, it's clear for first sight, w/o manual), and draw the graph. You have to understand compiler options in order to find out the names of the result files.

The make graph should be as complex just as you want. You can even do infinite loops (don't do)! You can tell make, which rule is your target, so only the left-standing files will be used as triggers.

Again: draw the graph!.

What's the difference between JPA and Hibernate?

JPA is a Java API specification which describes the management of relational data in applications using Java Platform. where as Hibernate is a ORM (Object Relational Mapping) library which follows JPA specification.

You can think JPA as a set of Rules which is implemented by Hibernate.

scatter plot in matplotlib

Maybe something like this:

import matplotlib.pyplot
import pylab

x = [1,2,3,4]
y = [3,4,8,6]

matplotlib.pyplot.scatter(x,y)

matplotlib.pyplot.show()

EDIT:

Let me see if I understand you correctly now:

You have:

       test1 | test2 | test3
test3 |   1   |   0  |  1

test4 |   0   |   1  |  0

test5 |   1   |   1  |  0

Now you want to represent the above values in in a scatter plot, such that value of 1 is represented by a dot.

Let's say you results are stored in a 2-D list:

results = [[1, 0, 1], [0, 1, 0], [1, 1, 0]]

We want to transform them into two variables so we are able to plot them.

And I believe this code will give you what you are looking for:

import matplotlib
import pylab


results = [[1, 0, 1], [0, 1, 0], [1, 1, 0]]

x = []
y = []

for ind_1, sublist in enumerate(results):
    for ind_2, ele in enumerate(sublist):
        if ele == 1:
            x.append(ind_1)
            y.append(ind_2)       


matplotlib.pyplot.scatter(x,y)

matplotlib.pyplot.show()

Notice that I do need to import pylab, and you would have play around with the axis labels. Also this feels like a work around, and there might be (probably is) a direct method to do this.

Ifelse statement in R with multiple conditions

Based on suggestions from @jaimedash and @Old_Mortality I found a solution:

DF$Den <- ifelse(DF$Denial1 < 1 & !is.na(DF$Denial1) | DF$Denial2 < 1 &  
!is.na(DF$Denial2) | DF$Denial3 < 1 & !is.na(DF$Denial3), "0", "1")

Then to ensure a value of NA if all values of the conditional variables are NA:

DF$Den <- ifelse(is.na(DF$Denial1) & is.na(DF$Denial2) & is.na(DF$Denial3), 
NA, DF$Den)

Android MediaPlayer Stop and Play

I may have not got your answer correct, but you can try this:

public void MusicController(View view) throws IOException{
    switch (view.getId()){
        case R.id.play: mplayer.start();break;
        case R.id.pause: mplayer.pause(); break;
        case R.id.stop:
            if(mplayer.isPlaying()) {
                mplayer.stop();
                mplayer.prepare(); 
            }
            break;

    }// where mplayer is defined in  onCreate method}

as there is just one thread handling all, so stop() makes it die so we have to again prepare it If your intent is to start it again when your press start button(it throws IO Exception) Or for better understanding of MediaPlayer you can refer to Android Media Player

ggplot2 line chart gives "geom_path: Each group consist of only one observation. Do you need to adjust the group aesthetic?"

You get this error because one of your variables is actually a factor variable . Execute

str(df) 

to check this. Then do this double variable change to keep the year numbers instead of transforming into "1,2,3,4" level numbers:

df$year <- as.numeric(as.character(df$year))

EDIT: it appears that your data.frame has a variable of class "array" which might cause the pb. Try then:

df <- data.frame(apply(df, 2, unclass))

and plot again?

Is there an operator to calculate percentage in Python?

use of %

def percent(expression):
    if "%" in expression:
        expression = expression.replace("%","/100")
    return eval(expression)

>>> percent("1500*20%")
300.0

Somthing simple

>>> p = lambda x: x/100
>>> p(20)
0.2
>>> 100*p(20)
20.0

The "directory where postgresql will keep all databases" (and configuration) is called "data directory" and corresponds to what PostgreSQL calls (a little confusingly) a "database cluster", which is not related to distributed computing, it just means a group of databases and related objects managed by a PostgreSQL server.

The location of the data directory depends on the distribution. If you install from source, the default is /usr/local/pgsql/data:

In file system terms, a database cluster will be a single directory under which all data will be stored. We call this the data directory or data area. It is completely up to you where you choose to store your data. There is no default, although locations such as /usr/local/pgsql/data or /var/lib/pgsql/data are popular. (ref)

Besides, an instance of a running PostgreSQL server is associated to one cluster; the location of its data directory can be passed to the server daemon ("postmaster" or "postgres") in the -D command line option, or by the PGDATA environment variable (usually in the scope of the running user, typically postgres). You can usually see the running server with something like this:

[root@server1 ~]# ps auxw |  grep postgres | grep -- -D
postgres  1535  0.0  0.1  39768  1584 ?        S    May17   0:23 /usr/local/pgsql/bin/postgres -D /usr/local/pgsql/data

Note that it is possible, though not very frequent, to run two instances of the same PostgreSQL server (same binaries, different processes) that serve different "clusters" (data directories). Of course, each instance would listen on its own TCP/IP port.

What is a good naming convention for vars, methods, etc in C++?

For what it is worth, Bjarne Stroustrup, the original author of C++ has his own favorite style, described here: http://www.stroustrup.com/bs_faq2.html

How to modify a CSS display property from JavaScript?

CSS properties should be set by cssText property or setAttribute method.

// Set multiple styles in a single statement
elt.style.cssText = "color: blue; border: 1px solid black"; 
// Or
elt.setAttribute("style", "color:red; border: 1px solid blue;");

Styles should not be set by assigning a string directly to the style property (as in elt.style = "color: blue;"), since it is considered read-only, as the style attribute returns a CSSStyleDeclaration object which is also read-only.

Show an image preview before upload

Without FileReader, we can use URL.createObjectURL method to get the DOMString that represents the object ( our image file ).

Don't forget to validate image extension.

<input type="file" id="files" multiple />
<div class="image-preview"></div>
let file_input = document.querySelector('#files');
let image_preview = document.querySelector('.image-preview');

const handle_file_preview = (e) => {
  let files = e.target.files;
  let length = files.length;

  for(let i = 0; i < length; i++) {
      let image = document.createElement('img');
      // use the DOMstring for source
      image.src = window.URL.createObjectURL(files[i]);
      image_preview.appendChild(image);
  }
}

file_input.addEventListener('change', handle_file_preview);

Persistent invalid graphics state error when using ggplot2

You likely don't need to reinstall ggplot2

Solution: go back to plot that didn't work previously. Take the below console output for example. The figure margins (the window that displays your plots) were too small to display the pairs(MinusInner) plot. Then when I tried to make the next qplot, R was still hung up on previous error.

pairs(MinusInner) Error in plot.new() : figure margins too large qplot(Sample.Type, BAE,data=MinusInner, geom="boxplot") Error in .Call.graphics(C_palette2, .Call(C_palette2, NULL)) : invalid graphics state

I fixed the first error by expanding the plot window and rerunning the pairs(MinusInner) plot. Then blam, it worked.

pairs(MinusInner) qplot(Sample.Type, BAE,data=MinusInner, geom="boxplot")

What are public, private and protected in object oriented programming?

A public item is one that is accessible from any other class. You just have to know what object it is and you can use a dot operator to access it. Protected means that a class and its subclasses have access to the variable, but not any other classes, they need to use a getter/setter to do anything with the variable. A private means that only that class has direct access to the variable, everything else needs a method/function to access or change that data. Hope this helps.

How to fix 'android.os.NetworkOnMainThreadException'?

AsyncTasks should ideally be used for short operations (a few seconds at the most.) - developer-android

Using newCachedThreadPool is the good one. also you can consider other options like newSingleThreadExecutor, newFixedThreadPool

    ExecutorService myExecutor = Executors.newCachedThreadPool();
    myExecutor.execute(new Runnable() {
        @Override
        public void run() {
            URL url = new URL(urls[0]);
            SAXParserFactory factory = SAXParserFactory.newInstance();
            SAXParser parser = factory.newSAXParser();
            XMLReader xmlreader = parser.getXMLReader();
            RssHandler theRSSHandler = new RssHandler();
            xmlreader.setContentHandler(theRSSHandler);
            InputSource is = new InputSource(url.openStream());
            xmlreader.parse(is);
        }
    });

ThreadPoolExecutor is a helper class to make this process easier. This class manages the creation of a group of threads, sets their priorities, and manages how work is distributed among those threads. As workload increases or decreases, the class spins up or destroys more threads to adjust to the workload.

See this for more info about Android threads

Can I add a UNIQUE constraint to a PostgreSQL table, after it's already created?

Yes, you can. But if you have non-unique entries on your table, it will fail. Here is the how to add unique constraint on your table. If you're using PostgreSQL 9.x you can follow below instruction.

CREATE UNIQUE INDEX constraint_name ON table_name (columns);

jquery 3.0 url.indexOf error

Jquery 3.0 has some breaking changes that remove certain methods due to conflicts. Your error is most likely due to one of these changes such as the removal of the .load() event.

Read more in the jQuery Core 3.0 Upgrade Guide

To fix this you either need to rewrite the code to be compatible with Jquery 3.0 or else you can use the JQuery Migrate plugin which restores the deprecated and/or removed APIs and behaviours.

Gradle: Could not determine java version from '11.0.2'

got to project file.. gradle/wrapper/gradlewrapper.properties

there you can change the value of distributionurl to what ever the lastest version is. (Found on docs.gradle.org)

What are the differences between if, else, and else if?

An if statement follows this sort of structure:

if (condition)
{
    // executed only if "condition" is true
}
else if (other condition)
{
    // executed only if "condition" was false and "other condition" is true
}
else
{
    // executed only if both "condition" and "other condition" were false
}

The if portion is the only block that is absolutely mandatory. else if allows you to say "ok, if the previous condition was not true, then if this condition is true...". The else says "if none of the conditions above were true..."

You can have multiple else if blocks, but only one if block and only one (or zero) else blocks.

TSQL PIVOT MULTIPLE COLUMNS

Since you want to pivot multiple columns of data, I would first suggest unpivoting the result, score and grade columns so you don't have multiple columns but you will have multiple rows.

Depending on your version of SQL Server you can use the UNPIVOT function or CROSS APPLY. The syntax to unpivot the data will be similar to:

select ratio, col, value
from GRAND_TOTALS
cross apply
(
  select 'result', cast(result as varchar(10)) union all
  select 'score', cast(score as varchar(10)) union all
  select 'grade', grade
) c(col, value)

See SQL Fiddle with Demo. Once the data has been unpivoted, then you can apply the PIVOT function:

select ratio = col,
  [current ratio], [gearing ratio], [performance ratio], total
from
(
  select ratio, col, value
  from GRAND_TOTALS
  cross apply
  (
    select 'result', cast(result as varchar(10)) union all
    select 'score', cast(score as varchar(10)) union all
    select 'grade', grade
  ) c(col, value)
) d
pivot
(
  max(value)
  for ratio in ([current ratio], [gearing ratio], [performance ratio], total)
) piv;

See SQL Fiddle with Demo. This will give you the result:

|  RATIO | CURRENT RATIO | GEARING RATIO | PERFORMANCE RATIO |     TOTAL |
|--------|---------------|---------------|-------------------|-----------|
|  grade |          Good |          Good |      Satisfactory |      Good |
| result |       1.29400 |       0.33840 |           0.04270 |    (null) |
|  score |      60.00000 |      70.00000 |          50.00000 | 180.00000 |

How do I base64 encode a string efficiently using Excel VBA?

As Mark C points out, you can use the MSXML Base64 encoding functionality as described here.

I prefer late binding because it's easier to deploy, so here's the same function that will work without any VBA references:

Function EncodeBase64(text As String) As String
  Dim arrData() As Byte
  arrData = StrConv(text, vbFromUnicode)

  Dim objXML As Variant
  Dim objNode As Variant

  Set objXML = CreateObject("MSXML2.DOMDocument")
  Set objNode = objXML.createElement("b64")

  objNode.dataType = "bin.base64"
  objNode.nodeTypedValue = arrData
  EncodeBase64 = objNode.text

  Set objNode = Nothing
  Set objXML = Nothing
End Function

C/C++ macro string concatenation

If they're both strings you can just do:

#define STR3 STR1 STR2

This then expands to:

#define STR3 "s" "1"

and in the C language, separating two strings with space as in "s" "1" is exactly equivalent to having a single string "s1".

How to use the CSV MIME-type?

You are not specifying a language or framework, but the following header is used for file downloads:

"Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=abc.csv"

To show only file name without the entire directory path

There are lots of way we can do that and simply you can try following.

ls /home/user/new | tr '\n' '\n' | grep .txt

Another method:

cd /home/user/new && ls *.txt

Jquery how to find an Object by attribute in an Array

I have created a util service for my angular application. It have two function which use very often.

For example you have object.

First getting value from object recursively without throwing undefined error.

{prop: { nestedProp1: {nestedProp2: somevalue}}}; get nestedProp2 2 without undefined checks.

Second filter array on basis

[{prop: { nestedProp1: {nestedProp2: somevalue1}}}, {prop: { nestedProp1: {nestedProp2: somevalue2}}}];

Find object from array with nestedProp2=somevalue2

app.service('UtilService', function(httpService) {
this.mapStringKeyVal = function(map, field) {
    var lastIdentifiedVal = null;
    var parentVal = map;
    field.split('.').forEach(function(val){
        if(parentVal[val]){
            lastIdentifiedVal = parentVal[val]; 
            parentVal = parentVal[val]; 
        }
    });
    return lastIdentifiedVal;
}


this.arrayPropFilter = function(array, field,value) {
    var lastIdentifiedVal = null;
    var mapStringKeyVal = this.mapStringKeyVal;
    array.forEach(function(arrayItem){
        var valueFound = mapStringKeyVal(arrayItem,field);
        if(!lastIdentifiedVal  && valueFound && valueFound==value){
            lastIdentifiedVal = arrayItem;
        }
    });
    return lastIdentifiedVal;
}});

For solution for current question. inject UtilService and call,

UtilService.arrayPropFilter(purposeArray,'purpose','daily');

Or more advanced

UtilService.arrayPropFilter(purposeArray,'purpose.nestedProp1.nestedProp2','daily');

How to calculate an age based on a birthday?

I don't really understand why you would make this an HTML Helper. I would make it part of the ViewData dictionary in an action method of the controller. Something like this:

ViewData["Age"] = DateTime.Now.Year - birthday.Year;

Given that birthday is passed into an action method and is a DateTime object.

Quadratic and cubic regression in Excel

The LINEST function described in a previous answer is the way to go, but an easier way to show the 3 coefficients of the output is to additionally use the INDEX function. In one cell, type: =INDEX(LINEST(B2:B21,A2:A21^{1,2},TRUE,FALSE),1) (by the way, the B2:B21 and A2:A21 I used are just the same values the first poster who answered this used... of course you'd change these ranges appropriately to match your data). This gives the X^2 coefficient. In an adjacent cell, type the same formula again but change the final 1 to a 2... this gives the X^1 coefficient. Lastly, in the next cell over, again type the same formula but change the last number to a 3... this gives the constant. I did notice that the three coefficients are very close but not quite identical to those derived by using the graphical trendline feature under the charts tab. Also, I discovered that LINEST only seems to work if the X and Y data are in columns (not rows), with no empty cells within the range, so be aware of that if you get a #VALUE error.

How to make the script wait/sleep in a simple way in unity

You were correct to use WaitForSeconds. But I suspect that you tried using it without coroutines. That's how it should work:

public void SomeMethod()
{
    StartCoroutine(SomeCoroutine());
}

private IEnumerator SomeCoroutine()
{
    TextUI.text = "Welcome to Number Wizard!";
    yield return new WaitForSeconds (3);
    TextUI.text = ("The highest number you can pick is " + max);
    yield return new WaitForSeconds (3);
    TextUI.text = ("The lowest number you can pick is " + min);
}

How to show PIL Image in ipython notebook

If you are using the pylab extension, you could convert the image to a numpy array and use matplotlib's imshow.

%pylab # only if not started with the --pylab option
imshow(array(pil_im))

EDIT: As mentioned in the comments, the pylab module is deprecated, so use the matplotlib magic instead and import the function explicitly:

%matplotlib
from matplotlib.pyplot import imshow 
imshow(array(pil_im))

Refresh or force redraw the fragment

I am using remove and replace both for refreshing content of Fragment like

final FragmentTransaction fragmentTransaction = getSupportFragmentManager().beginTransaction();
fragmentTransaction.remove(resetFragment).commit();
fragmentTransaction.replace(R.id.frame_container,resetFragment).commit();

Case in Select Statement

I think these could be helpful for you .

Using a SELECT statement with a simple CASE expression

Within a SELECT statement, a simple CASE expression allows for only an equality check; no other comparisons are made. The following example uses the CASE expression to change the display of product line categories to make them more understandable.

USE AdventureWorks2012;
GO
SELECT   ProductNumber, Category =
      CASE ProductLine
         WHEN 'R' THEN 'Road'
         WHEN 'M' THEN 'Mountain'
         WHEN 'T' THEN 'Touring'
         WHEN 'S' THEN 'Other sale items'
         ELSE 'Not for sale'
      END,
   Name
FROM Production.Product
ORDER BY ProductNumber;
GO

Using a SELECT statement with a searched CASE expression

Within a SELECT statement, the searched CASE expression allows for values to be replaced in the result set based on comparison values. The following example displays the list price as a text comment based on the price range for a product.

USE AdventureWorks2012;
GO
SELECT   ProductNumber, Name, "Price Range" = 
      CASE 
         WHEN ListPrice =  0 THEN 'Mfg item - not for resale'
         WHEN ListPrice < 50 THEN 'Under $50'
         WHEN ListPrice >= 50 and ListPrice < 250 THEN 'Under $250'
         WHEN ListPrice >= 250 and ListPrice < 1000 THEN 'Under $1000'
         ELSE 'Over $1000'
      END
FROM Production.Product
ORDER BY ProductNumber ;
GO

Using CASE in an ORDER BY clause

The following examples uses the CASE expression in an ORDER BY clause to determine the sort order of the rows based on a given column value. In the first example, the value in the SalariedFlag column of the HumanResources.Employee table is evaluated. Employees that have the SalariedFlag set to 1 are returned in order by the BusinessEntityID in descending order. Employees that have the SalariedFlag set to 0 are returned in order by the BusinessEntityID in ascending order. In the second example, the result set is ordered by the column TerritoryName when the column CountryRegionName is equal to 'United States' and by CountryRegionName for all other rows.

SELECT BusinessEntityID, SalariedFlag
FROM HumanResources.Employee
ORDER BY CASE SalariedFlag WHEN 1 THEN BusinessEntityID END DESC
        ,CASE WHEN SalariedFlag = 0 THEN BusinessEntityID END;
GO


SELECT BusinessEntityID, LastName, TerritoryName, CountryRegionName
FROM Sales.vSalesPerson
WHERE TerritoryName IS NOT NULL
ORDER BY CASE CountryRegionName WHEN 'United States' THEN TerritoryName
         ELSE CountryRegionName END;

Using CASE in an UPDATE statement

The following example uses the CASE expression in an UPDATE statement to determine the value that is set for the column VacationHours for employees with SalariedFlag set to 0. When subtracting 10 hours from VacationHours results in a negative value, VacationHours is increased by 40 hours; otherwise, VacationHours is increased by 20 hours. The OUTPUT clause is used to display the before and after vacation values.

USE AdventureWorks2012;
GO
UPDATE HumanResources.Employee
SET VacationHours = 
    ( CASE
         WHEN ((VacationHours - 10.00) < 0) THEN VacationHours + 40
         ELSE (VacationHours + 20.00)
       END
    )
OUTPUT Deleted.BusinessEntityID, Deleted.VacationHours AS BeforeValue, 
       Inserted.VacationHours AS AfterValue
WHERE SalariedFlag = 0; 

Using CASE in a HAVING clause

The following example uses the CASE expression in a HAVING clause to restrict the rows returned by the SELECT statement. The statement returns the the maximum hourly rate for each job title in the HumanResources.Employee table. The HAVING clause restricts the titles to those that are held by men with a maximum pay rate greater than 40 dollars or women with a maximum pay rate greater than 42 dollars.

USE AdventureWorks2012;
GO
SELECT JobTitle, MAX(ph1.Rate)AS MaximumRate
FROM HumanResources.Employee AS e
JOIN HumanResources.EmployeePayHistory AS ph1 ON e.BusinessEntityID = ph1.BusinessEntityID
GROUP BY JobTitle
HAVING (MAX(CASE WHEN Gender = 'M' 
        THEN ph1.Rate 
        ELSE NULL END) > 40.00
     OR MAX(CASE WHEN Gender  = 'F' 
        THEN ph1.Rate  
        ELSE NULL END) > 42.00)
ORDER BY MaximumRate DESC;

How can I prevent the textarea from stretching beyond his parent DIV element? (google-chrome issue only)

To disable resizing completely:

textarea {
    resize: none;
}

To allow only vertical resizing:

textarea {
    resize: vertical;
}

To allow only horizontal resizing:

textarea {
    resize: horizontal;
}

Or you can limit size:

textarea {
    max-width: 100px; 
    max-height: 100px;
}

To limit size to parents width and/or height:

textarea {
    max-width: 100%; 
    max-height: 100%;
}

Read and Write CSV files including unicode with Python 2.7

There is an example at the end of the csv module documentation that demonstrates how to deal with Unicode. Below is copied directly from that example. Note that the strings read or written will be Unicode strings. Don't pass a byte string to UnicodeWriter.writerows, for example.

import csv,codecs,cStringIO

class UTF8Recoder:
    def __init__(self, f, encoding):
        self.reader = codecs.getreader(encoding)(f)
    def __iter__(self):
        return self
    def next(self):
        return self.reader.next().encode("utf-8")

class UnicodeReader:
    def __init__(self, f, dialect=csv.excel, encoding="utf-8-sig", **kwds):
        f = UTF8Recoder(f, encoding)
        self.reader = csv.reader(f, dialect=dialect, **kwds)
    def next(self):
        '''next() -> unicode
        This function reads and returns the next line as a Unicode string.
        '''
        row = self.reader.next()
        return [unicode(s, "utf-8") for s in row]
    def __iter__(self):
        return self

class UnicodeWriter:
    def __init__(self, f, dialect=csv.excel, encoding="utf-8-sig", **kwds):
        self.queue = cStringIO.StringIO()
        self.writer = csv.writer(self.queue, dialect=dialect, **kwds)
        self.stream = f
        self.encoder = codecs.getincrementalencoder(encoding)()
    def writerow(self, row):
        '''writerow(unicode) -> None
        This function takes a Unicode string and encodes it to the output.
        '''
        self.writer.writerow([s.encode("utf-8") for s in row])
        data = self.queue.getvalue()
        data = data.decode("utf-8")
        data = self.encoder.encode(data)
        self.stream.write(data)
        self.queue.truncate(0)

    def writerows(self, rows):
        for row in rows:
            self.writerow(row)

with open('xxx.csv','rb') as fin, open('lll.csv','wb') as fout:
    reader = UnicodeReader(fin)
    writer = UnicodeWriter(fout,quoting=csv.QUOTE_ALL)
    for line in reader:
        writer.writerow(line)

Input (UTF-8 encoded):

American,???
French,???
German,???

Output:

"American","???"
"French","???"
"German","???"

How do I declare and initialize an array in Java?

Take the primitive type int for example. There are several ways to declare and int array:

int[] i = new int[capacity];
int[] i = new int[] {value1, value2, value3, etc};
int[] i = {value1, value2, value3, etc};

where in all of these, you can use int i[] instead of int[] i.

With reflection, you can use (Type[]) Array.newInstance(Type.class, capacity);

Note that in method parameters, ... indicates variable arguments. Essentially, any number of parameters is fine. It's easier to explain with code:

public static void varargs(int fixed1, String fixed2, int... varargs) {...}
...
varargs(0, "", 100); // fixed1 = 0, fixed2 = "", varargs = {100}
varargs(0, "", 100, 200); // fixed1 = 0, fixed2 = "", varargs = {100, 200};

Inside the method, varargs is treated as a normal int[]. Type... can only be used in method parameters, so int... i = new int[] {} will not compile.

Note that when passing an int[] to a method (or any other Type[]), you cannot use the third way. In the statement int[] i = *{a, b, c, d, etc}*, the compiler assumes that the {...} means an int[]. But that is because you are declaring a variable. When passing an array to a method, the declaration must either be new Type[capacity] or new Type[] {...}.

Multidimensional Arrays

Multidimensional arrays are much harder to deal with. Essentially, a 2D array is an array of arrays. int[][] means an array of int[]s. The key is that if an int[][] is declared as int[x][y], the maximum index is i[x-1][y-1]. Essentially, a rectangular int[3][5] is:

[0, 0] [1, 0] [2, 0]
[0, 1] [1, 1] [2, 1]
[0, 2] [1, 2] [2, 2]
[0, 3] [1, 3] [2, 3]
[0, 4] [1, 4] [2, 4]

Regex remove all special characters except numbers?

Use the global flag:

var name = name.replace(/[^a-zA-Z ]/g, "");
                                    ^

If you don't want to remove numbers, add it to the class:

var name = name.replace(/[^a-zA-Z0-9 ]/g, "");

how to write javascript code inside php

You can put up all your JS like this, so it doesn't execute before your HTML is ready

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

Remember this is jQuery so include it in the head section. Also see Why you should use jQuery and not onload

python filter list of dictionaries based on key value

You can try a list comp

>>> exampleSet = [{'type':'type1'},{'type':'type2'},{'type':'type2'}, {'type':'type3'}]
>>> keyValList = ['type2','type3']
>>> expectedResult = [d for d in exampleSet if d['type'] in keyValList]
>>> expectedResult
[{'type': 'type2'}, {'type': 'type2'}, {'type': 'type3'}]

Another way is by using filter

>>> list(filter(lambda d: d['type'] in keyValList, exampleSet))
[{'type': 'type2'}, {'type': 'type2'}, {'type': 'type3'}]

How do I set the version information for an existing .exe, .dll?

the above answer from @DannyBeckett helped me a lot,

I put the following in a batch file & I place it in the same folder where ResourceHacker.exe & the EXE I work on is located & it works excellent. [you may edit it to fit your needs]

    @echo off
    :start1
    set /p newVersion=Enter version number [?.?.?.?]:
    if "%newVersion%" == "" goto start1
    :start2
    set /p file=Enter EXE name [for 'program.exe' enter 'program']:
    if "%file%" == "" goto start2
    for /f "tokens=1-4 delims=." %%a in ('echo %newVersion%') do (set ResVersion=%%a,%%b,%%c,%%d)
    (
    echo:VS_VERSION_INFO VERSIONINFO
    echo:    FILEVERSION    %ResVersion%
    echo:    PRODUCTVERSION %ResVersion%
    echo:{
    echo:    BLOCK "StringFileInfo"
    echo:    {
    echo:        BLOCK "040904b0"
    echo:        {
    echo:            VALUE "CompanyName",        "MyCompany\0"
    echo:            VALUE "FileDescription",    "TestFile\0"
    echo:            VALUE "FileVersion",        "%newVersion%\0"
    echo:            VALUE "LegalCopyright",     "COPYRIGHT © 2019 MyCompany\0"
    echo:            VALUE "OriginalFilename",   "%file%.exe\0"
    echo:            VALUE "ProductName",        "Test\0"
    echo:            VALUE "ProductVersion",     "%newVersion%\0"
    echo:        }
    echo:    }
    echo:    BLOCK "VarFileInfo"
    echo:    {
    echo:        VALUE "Translation", 0x409, 1200
    echo:    }
    echo:}
    ) >Resources.rc     &&      echo setting Resources.rc
    ResourceHacker.exe -open resources.rc -save resources.res -action compile -log CONSOLE
    ResourceHacker -open "%file%.exe" -save "%file%Res.exe" -action addoverwrite -resource "resources.res"  -log CONSOLE
    ResourceHacker.exe -open "%file%Res.exe" -save "%file%Ico.exe" -action addskip -res "%file%.ico" -mask ICONGROUP,MAINICON, -log CONSOLE
    xCopy /y /f "%file%Ico.exe" "%file%.exe"
    echo.
    echo.
    echo your compiled file %file%.exe is ready
    pause

[as a side note i used resource hacker also to compile the res file, not GoRC]

Get User Selected Range

You can loop through the Selection object to see what was selected. Here is a code snippet from Microsoft (http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa203726(office.11).aspx):

Sub Count_Selection()
    Dim cell As Object
    Dim count As Integer
    count = 0
    For Each cell In Selection
        count = count + 1
    Next cell
    MsgBox count & " item(s) selected"
End Sub

Passing an array by reference

It is a syntax. In the function arguments int (&myArray)[100] parenthesis that enclose the &myArray are necessary. if you don't use them, you will be passing an array of references and that is because the subscript operator [] has higher precedence over the & operator.

E.g. int &myArray[100] // array of references

So, by using type construction () you tell the compiler that you want a reference to an array of 100 integers.

E.g int (&myArray)[100] // reference of an array of 100 ints

how to bold words within a paragraph in HTML/CSS?

Although your answer has many solutions I think this is a great way to save lines of code. Try using spans which is great for situations like yours.

  1. Create a class for making any item bold. So for paragraph text it would be
span.bold(This name can be anything do not include parenthesis) {
   font-weight: bold;
}
  1. In your html you can access that class like by using the span tags and adding a class of bold or whatever name you have chosen

Find full path of the Python interpreter?

Just noting a different way of questionable usefulness, using os.environ:

import os
python_executable_path = os.environ['_']

e.g.

$ python -c "import os; print(os.environ['_'])"
/usr/bin/python

What's the best way to build a string of delimited items in Java?

You should probably use a StringBuilder with the append method to construct your result, but otherwise this is as good of a solution as Java has to offer.

Prevent Default on Form Submit jQuery

This is an ancient question, but the accepted answer here doesn't really get to the root of the problem.

You can solve this two ways. First with jQuery:

$(document).ready( function() { // Wait until document is fully parsed
  $("#cpa-form").on('submit', function(e){

     e.preventDefault();

  });
})

Or without jQuery:

// Gets a reference to the form element
var form = document.getElementById('cpa-form');

// Adds a listener for the "submit" event.
form.addEventListener('submit', function(e) {

  e.preventDefault();

});

You don't need to use return false to solve this problem.

How to break out or exit a method in Java?

How to break out in java??

Ans: Best way: System.exit(0);

Java language provides three jump statemnts that allow you to interrupt the normal flow of program.

These include break , continue ,return ,labelled break statement for e.g

import java.util.Scanner;
class demo
{   
    public static void main(String args[])
    {
            outerLoop://Label
            for(int i=1;i<=10;i++)
            {
                    for(int j=1;j<=i;j++)
                    {   
                        for(int k=1;k<=j;k++)
                        {
                            System.out.print(k+"\t");
                            break outerLoop;
                        }
                     System.out.println();                  
                    }
             System.out.println();
            }
    }   
}

Output: 1

Now Note below Program:

import java.util.Scanner;
class demo
{   
    public static void main(String args[])
    {
            for(int i=1;i<=10;i++)
            {
                    for(int j=1;j<=i;j++)
                    {   
                        for(int k=1;k<=j;k++)
                        {
                            System.out.print(k+"\t");
                            break ;
                        }                   
                    }
             System.out.println();
            }
    }   
}

output:

1
11
111
1111

and so on upto

1111111111

Similarly you can use continue statement just replace break with continue in above example.

Things to Remember :

A case label cannot contain a runtime expressions involving variable or method calls

outerLoop:
Scanner s1=new Scanner(System.in);
int ans=s1.nextInt();
// Error s1 cannot be resolved

How can I start PostgreSQL on Windows?

If you are getting an error "psql.exe' is not recognized as an internal or external command,... "

There can be : Causes

  • System is unable to find the psql.exe tool, because the path to this tool is not specified in the system environment variable PATH

or - PostgreSQL Database client not installed on your PC

Since you have already installed PostgreSQL the latter can not be the issue(assuming everything is installed as expected)

In order to fix the first one "please specify the full path to the bin directory in the PostgreSQL installation folder, where this tool resides."

For example

Path: "C:\Program Files\PostgreSQL\10\bin"

How to add smooth scrolling to Bootstrap's scroll spy function

I combined it, and this is the results -

$(document).ready(function() {
     $("#toTop").hide();

            // fade in & out
       $(window).scroll(function () {
                    if ($(this).scrollTop() > 400) {
                        $('#toTop').fadeIn();
                    } else {
                        $('#toTop').fadeOut();
                    }
                });     
  $('a[href*=#]').each(function() {
    if (location.pathname.replace(/^\//,'') == this.pathname.replace(/^\//,'')
    && location.hostname == this.hostname
    && this.hash.replace(/#/,'') ) {
      var $targetId = $(this.hash), $targetAnchor = $('[name=' + this.hash.slice(1) +']');
      var $target = $targetId.length ? $targetId : $targetAnchor.length ? $targetAnchor : false;
       if ($target) {
         var targetOffset = $target.offset().top;
         $(this).click(function() {
           $('html, body').animate({scrollTop: targetOffset}, 400);
           return false;
         });
      }
    }
  });
});

I tested it and it works fine. hope this will help someone :)

jquery ui Dialog: cannot call methods on dialog prior to initialization

Try this instead

$(document).ready(function() {
  $("#divDialog").dialog(opt).dialog("open");
});

You can also do:

var theDialog = $("#divDialog").dialog(opt);
theDialog.dialog("open");

That's because the dialog is not stored in $('#divDialog'), but on a new div that is created on the fly and returned by the .dialog(opt) function.

Console app arguments, how arguments are passed to Main method

Read MSDN.

it also contains a link to the args.

short answer: no, the main does not get override. when visual studio (actually the compiler) builds your exe it must declare a starting point for the assmebly, that point is the main function.

if you meant how to literary pass args then you can either run you're app from the command line with them (e.g. appname.exe param1 param2) or in the project setup, enter them (in the command line arguments in the Debug tab)

in the main you will need to read those args for example:

for (int i = 0; i < args.Length; i++)
{
    string flag = args.GetValue(i).ToString();
    if (flag == "bla") 
    {
        Bla();
    }
}

SQL select everything in an array

$SQL_Part="("

{
   $SQL_Part+=$cat[i]+",";
}

$SQL="SELECT * FROM products WHERE catid IN "+$SQL_Part;

It's more generic and will fit for any array!!

browser sessionStorage. share between tabs?

Using sessionStorage for this is not possible.

From the MDN Docs

Opening a page in a new tab or window will cause a new session to be initiated.

That means that you can't share between tabs, for this you should use localStorage

Setting up a cron job in Windows

If you don't want to use Scheduled Tasks you can use the Windows Subsystem for Linux which will allow you to use cron jobs like on Linux.

To make sure cron is actually running you can type service cron status from within the Linux terminal. If it isn't currently running then type service cron start and you should be good to go.

JQuery - Get select value

val() returns the value of the <select> element, i.e. the value attribute of the selected <option> element.

Since you actually want the inner text of the selected <option> element, you should match that element and use text() instead:

var nationality = $("#dancerCountry option:selected").text();

Socket send and receive byte array

First, do not use DataOutputStream unless it’s really necessary. Second:

Socket socket = new Socket("host", port);
OutputStream socketOutputStream = socket.getOutputStream();
socketOutputStream.write(message);

Of course this lacks any error checking but this should get you going. The JDK API Javadoc is your friend and can help you a lot.

Adding images or videos to iPhone Simulator

For iOS 8, If there is no need to retain photo capture date and location, just drop photo files to the simulator.

To retain photo meta data, do the following:

  1. Copy photo files to: /Users/{USER}/Library/Developer/CoreSimulator/Devices/{UDID}/data/Media/DCIM/100Apple
  2. Remove (or rename) folder: /Users/{USER}/Library/Developer/CoreSimulator/Devices/{UDID}/data/Media/photoData
  3. Relaunch Simulator

Note: You need to replace {USER} with your user name and {UDID} with the UDID of the simulator. To find UDID for your simulator, from Terminal, run 'xcrun simctl list'.

Removing elements from array Ruby

For speed, I would do the following, which requires only one pass through each of the two arrays. This method preserves order. I will first present code that does not mutate the original array, then show how it can be easily modified to mutate.

arr = [1,1,1,2,2,3,1]
removals = [1,3,1]

h = removals.group_by(&:itself).transform_values(&:size)
  #=> {1=>2, 3=>1} 
arr.each_with_object([]) { |n,a|
  h.key?(n) && h[n] > 0 ? (h[n] -= 1) : a << n }
  #=> [1, 2, 2, 1]

arr
  #=> [1, 1, 1, 2, 2, 3, 1] 

To mutate arr write:

h = removals.group_by(&:itself).transform_values(&:count)
arr.replace(arr.each_with_object([]) { |n,a|
  h.key?(n) && h[n] > 0 ? (h[n] -= 1) : a << n })
  #=> [1, 2, 2, 1]

arr
  #=> [1, 2, 2, 1]

This uses the 21st century method Hash#transform_values (new in MRI v2.4), but one could instead write:

h = Hash[removals.group_by(&:itself).map { |k,v| [k,v.size] }]

or

h = removals.each_with_object(Hash.new(0)) { | n,h| h[n] += 1 }

How can I delete a file from a Git repository?

Note: if you want to delete file only from git use below:

git rm --cached file1.txt

If you want to delete also from hard disk:

git rm file1.txt

If you want to remove a folder(the folder may contain few files) so, you should remove using recursive command, as below:

git rm -r foldername

If you want to remove a folder inside another folder

git rm -r parentFolder/childFolder

Then, you can commit and push as usual. However, if you want to recover deleted folder, you can follow this: recover deleted files from git is possible.

From doc:

git rm [-f | --force] [-n] [-r] [--cached] [--ignore-unmatch] [--quiet] [--] <file>…?

OPTIONS

<file>…?

Files to remove. Fileglobs (e.g. *.c) can be given to remove all matching files. If you want Git to expand file glob characters, you

may need to shell-escape them. A leading directory name (e.g. dir to remove dir/file1 and dir/file2) can be given to remove all files in the directory, and recursively all sub-directories, but this requires the -r option to be explicitly given. -f --force

Override the up-to-date check.

-n --dry-run

Don’t actually remove any file(s). Instead, just show if they exist in the index and would otherwise be removed by the command.

-r

Allow recursive removal when a leading directory name is given.

--

This option can be used to separate command-line options from the list of files, (useful when filenames might be mistaken for

command-line options). --cached

Use this option to unstage and remove paths only from the index. Working tree files, whether modified or not, will be left alone.

--ignore-unmatch

Exit with a zero status even if no files matched.

-q --quiet

git rm normally outputs one line (in the form of an rm command) for each file removed. This option suppresses that output.

Read more on official doc.

Iterating over a 2 dimensional python list

zip will transpose the list, after that you can concatenate the outputs.

Out[3]: [('0,0', '1,0', '2,0'), ('0,1', '1,1', '2,1')]

How do you kill a Thread in Java?

The question is rather vague. If you meant “how do I write a program so that a thread stops running when I want it to”, then various other responses should be helpful. But if you meant “I have an emergency with a server I cannot restart right now and I just need a particular thread to die, come what may”, then you need an intervention tool to match monitoring tools like jstack.

For this purpose I created jkillthread. See its instructions for usage.

Object Dump JavaScript

If you're on Chrome, Firefox or IE10 + why not extend the console and use

(function() {
    console.dump = function(object) {
        if (window.JSON && window.JSON.stringify)
            console.log(JSON.stringify(object));
        else
            console.log(object);
    };
})();

for a concise, cross-browser solution.

What is an application binary interface (ABI)?

Application binary interface (ABI)

Functionality:

  • Translation from the programmer's model to the underlying system's domain data type, size, alignment, the calling convention, which controls how functions' arguments are passed and return values retrieved; the system call numbers and how an application should make system calls to the operating system; the high-level language compilers' name mangling scheme, exception propagation, and calling convention between compilers on the same platform, but do not require cross-platform compatibility...

Existing entities:

  • Logical blocks that directly participate in program's execution: ALU, general purpose registers, registers for memory/ I/O mapping of I/O, etc...

consumer:

  • Language processors linker, assembler...

These are needed by whoever has to ensure that build tool-chains work as a whole. If you write one module in assembly language, another in Python, and instead of your own boot-loader want to use an operating system, then your "application" modules are working across "binary" boundaries and require agreement of such "interface".

C++ name mangling because object files from different high-level languages might be required to be linked in your application. Consider using GCC standard library making system calls to Windows built with Visual C++.

ELF is one possible expectation of the linker from an object file for interpretation, though JVM might have some other idea.

For a Windows RT Store app, try searching for ARM ABI if you really wish to make some build tool-chain work together.

Strip off URL parameter with PHP

function removeParam($url, $param) {
    $url = preg_replace('/(&|\?)'.preg_quote($param).'=[^&]*$/', '', $url);
    $url = preg_replace('/(&|\?)'.preg_quote($param).'=[^&]*&/', '$1', $url);
    return $url;
}

Test if something is not undefined in JavaScript

You must first check whether response[0] is undefined, and only if it's not, check for the rest. That means that in your case, response[0] is undefined.

How to strip HTML tags from string in JavaScript?

Using the browser's parser is the probably the best bet in current browsers. The following will work, with the following caveats:

  • Your HTML is valid within a <div> element. HTML contained within <body> or <html> or <head> tags is not valid within a <div> and may therefore not be parsed correctly.
  • textContent (the DOM standard property) and innerText (non-standard) properties are not identical. For example, textContent will include text within a <script> element while innerText will not (in most browsers). This only affects IE <=8, which is the only major browser not to support textContent.
  • The HTML does not contain <script> elements.
  • The HTML is not null
  • The HTML comes from a trusted source. Using this with arbitrary HTML allows arbitrary untrusted JavaScript to be executed. This example is from a comment by Mike Samuel on the duplicate question: <img onerror='alert(\"could run arbitrary JS here\")' src=bogus>

Code:

var html = "<p>Some HTML</p>";
var div = document.createElement("div");
div.innerHTML = html;
var text = div.textContent || div.innerText || "";

How do you sort an array on multiple columns?

My own library for working with ES6 iterables (blinq) allows (among other things) easy multi-level sorting

_x000D_
_x000D_
const blinq = window.blinq.blinq_x000D_
// or import { blinq } from 'blinq'_x000D_
// or const { blinq } = require('blinq')_x000D_
const dates = [{_x000D_
    day: 1, month: 10, year: 2000_x000D_
  },_x000D_
  {_x000D_
    day: 1, month: 1, year: 2000_x000D_
  },_x000D_
  {_x000D_
    day: 2, month: 1, year: 2000_x000D_
  },_x000D_
  {_x000D_
    day: 1, month: 1, year: 1999_x000D_
  },_x000D_
  {_x000D_
    day: 1, month: 1, year: 2000_x000D_
  }_x000D_
]_x000D_
const sortedDates = blinq(dates)_x000D_
  .orderBy(x => x.year)_x000D_
  .thenBy(x => x.month)_x000D_
  .thenBy(x => x.day);_x000D_

What is the difference between git clone and checkout?

Simply git checkout have 2 uses

  1. Switching between existing local branches like git checkout <existing_local_branch_name>
  2. Create a new branch from current branch using flag -b. Suppose if you are at master branch then git checkout -b <new_feature_branch_name> will create a new branch with the contents of master and switch to newly created branch

Get size of an Iterable in Java

You can cast your iterable to a list then use .size() on it.

Lists.newArrayList(iterable).size();

For the sake of clarity, the above method will require the following import:

import com.google.common.collect.Lists;

Is it possible to start activity through adb shell?

For example this will start XBMC:

(More general answers are already posted, but I missed a nice example here.)

Connect to docker container as user other than root

This solved my use case that is: "Compile webpack stuff in nodejs container on Windows running Docker Desktop with WSL2 and have the built assets under your currently logged in user."

docker run -u 1000 -v "$PWD":/build -w /build node:10.23 /bin/sh -c 'npm install && npm run build'

Based on the answer by eigenfield. Thank you!

Also this material helped me understand what is going on.

Clearing localStorage in javascript?

Here is a function that will allow you to remove all localStorage items with exceptions. You will need jQuery for this function. You can download the gist.

You can call it like this

let clearStorageExcept = function(exceptions) {
  let keys = [];
  exceptions = [].concat(exceptions); // prevent undefined

  // get storage keys
  $.each(localStorage, (key) => {
    keys.push(key);
  });

  // loop through keys
  for (let i = 0; i < keys.length; i++) {
    let key = keys[i];
    let deleteItem = true;

    // check if key excluded
    for (let j = 0; j < exceptions.length; j++) {
      let exception = exceptions[j];
      if (key == exception) {
        deleteItem = false;
      }
    }

    // delete key
    if (deleteItem) {
      localStorage.removeItem(key);
    }
  }
};

Set object property using reflection

Use somethings like this :

public static class PropertyExtension{       

   public static void SetPropertyValue(this object p_object, string p_propertyName, object value)
   {
    PropertyInfo property = p_object.GetType().GetProperty(p_propertyName);
    property.SetValue(p_object, Convert.ChangeType(value, property.PropertyType), null);
   }
}

or

public static class PropertyExtension{       

   public static void SetPropertyValue(this object p_object, string p_propertyName, object value)
   {
    PropertyInfo property = p_object.GetType().GetProperty(p_propertyName);
    Type t = Nullable.GetUnderlyingType(property.PropertyType) ?? property.PropertyType;
    object safeValue = (value == null) ? null : Convert.ChangeType(value, t);

    property.SetValue(p_object, safeValue, null);
   }
}
