How to "scan" a website (or page) for info, and bring it into my program?

My answer won't probably be useful to the writer of this question (I am 8 months late so not the right timing I guess) but I think it will probably be useful for many other developers that might come across this answer.

Today, I just released (in the name of my company) an HTML to POJO complete framework that you can use to map HTML to any POJO class with simply some annotations. The library itself is quite handy and features many other things all the while being very pluggable. You can have a look to it right here : https://github.com/whimtrip/jwht-htmltopojo

How to use : Basics

Imagine we need to parse the following html page :

<html>
    <head>
        <title>A Simple HTML Document</title>
    </head>
    <body>
        <div class="restaurant">
            <h1>A la bonne Franquette</h1>
            <p>French cuisine restaurant for gourmet of fellow french people</p>
            <div class="location">
                <p>in <span>London</span></p>
            </div>
            <p>Restaurant n*18,190. Ranked 113 out of 1,550 restaurants</p>  
            <div class="meals">
                <div class="meal">
                    <p>Veal Cutlet</p>
                    <p rating-color="green">4.5/5 stars</p>
                    <p>Chef Mr. Frenchie</p>
                </div>

                <div class="meal">
                    <p>Ratatouille</p>
                    <p rating-color="orange">3.6/5 stars</p>
                    <p>Chef Mr. Frenchie and Mme. French-Cuisine</p>
                </div>

            </div> 
        </div>    
    </body>
</html>

Let's create the POJOs we want to map it to :

public class Restaurant {

    @Selector( value = "div.restaurant > h1")
    private String name;

    @Selector( value = "div.restaurant > p:nth-child(2)")
    private String description;

    @Selector( value = "div.restaurant > div:nth-child(3) > p > span")    
    private String location;    

    @Selector( 
        value = "div.restaurant > p:nth-child(4)"
        format = "^Restaurant n\*([0-9,]+). Ranked ([0-9,]+) out of ([0-9,]+) restaurants$",
        indexForRegexPattern = 1,
        useDeserializer = true,
        deserializer = ReplacerDeserializer.class,
        preConvert = true,
        postConvert = false
    )
    // so that the number becomes a valid number as they are shown in this format : 18,190
    @ReplaceWith(value = ",", with = "")
    private Long id;

    @Selector( 
        value = "div.restaurant > p:nth-child(4)"
        format = "^Restaurant n\*([0-9,]+). Ranked ([0-9,]+) out of ([0-9,]+) restaurants$",
        // This time, we want the second regex group and not the first one anymore
        indexForRegexPattern = 2,
        useDeserializer = true,
        deserializer = ReplacerDeserializer.class,
        preConvert = true,
        postConvert = false
    )
    // so that the number becomes a valid number as they are shown in this format : 18,190
    @ReplaceWith(value = ",", with = "")
    private Integer rank;

    @Selector(value = ".meal")    
    private List<Meal> meals;

    // getters and setters

}

And now the Meal class as well :

public class Meal {

    @Selector(value = "p:nth-child(1)")
    private String name;

    @Selector(
        value = "p:nth-child(2)",
        format = "^([0-9.]+)\/5 stars$",
        indexForRegexPattern = 1
    )
    private Float stars;

    @Selector(
        value = "p:nth-child(2)",
        // rating-color custom attribute can be used as well
        attr = "rating-color"
    )
    private String ratingColor;

    @Selector(
        value = "p:nth-child(3)"
    )
    private String chefs;

    // getters and setters.
}

We provided some more explanations on the above code on our github page.

For the moment, let's see how to scrap this.

private static final String MY_HTML_FILE = "my-html-file.html";

public static void main(String[] args) {


    HtmlToPojoEngine htmlToPojoEngine = HtmlToPojoEngine.create();

    HtmlAdapter<Restaurant> adapter = htmlToPojoEngine.adapter(Restaurant.class);

    // If they were several restaurants in the same page, 
    // you would need to create a parent POJO containing
    // a list of Restaurants as shown with the meals here
    Restaurant restaurant = adapter.fromHtml(getHtmlBody());

    // That's it, do some magic now!

}


private static String getHtmlBody() throws IOException {
    byte[] encoded = Files.readAllBytes(Paths.get(MY_HTML_FILE));
    return new String(encoded, Charset.forName("UTF-8"));

}

How to run shell script file using nodejs?

Also, you can use shelljs plugin. It's easy and it's cross-platform.

Install command:

npm install [-g] shelljs

What is shellJS

ShellJS is a portable (Windows/Linux/OS X) implementation of Unix shell commands on top of the Node.js API. You can use it to eliminate your shell script's dependency on Unix while still keeping its familiar and powerful commands. You can also install it globally so you can run it from outside Node projects - say goodbye to those gnarly Bash scripts!

An example of how it works:

var shell = require('shelljs');

if (!shell.which('git')) {
  shell.echo('Sorry, this script requires git');
  shell.exit(1);
}

// Copy files to release dir
shell.rm('-rf', 'out/Release');
shell.cp('-R', 'stuff/', 'out/Release');

// Replace macros in each .js file
shell.cd('lib');
shell.ls('*.js').forEach(function (file) {
  shell.sed('-i', 'BUILD_VERSION', 'v0.1.2', file);
  shell.sed('-i', /^.*REMOVE_THIS_LINE.*$/, '', file);
  shell.sed('-i', /.*REPLACE_LINE_WITH_MACRO.*\n/, shell.cat('macro.js'), file);
});
shell.cd('..');

// Run external tool synchronously
if (shell.exec('git commit -am "Auto-commit"').code !== 0) {
  shell.echo('Error: Git commit failed');
  shell.exit(1);
}

Also, you can use from the command line:

$ shx mkdir -p foo
$ shx touch foo/bar.txt
$ shx rm -rf foo

Duplicate symbols for architecture x86_64 under Xcode

Open your project in XCode

you will see the sidebar now focus on the attached image.

Search your specific SDK or any dublicate file where you facing an issue.

You will see that you have added any file twice.

just remove that file and your issue will be resolved.

Note: you have to remove the file from that place where you add it wrongly.

FOR EXAMPLE

Note: Just remove FBSDKCoreKit from Frameworks

How Can I Override Style Info from a CSS Class in the Body of a Page?

you can test a color by writing the CSS inline like <div style="color:red";>...</div>

How can I implement custom Action Bar with custom buttons in Android?

1 You can use a drawable

<menu xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
    <item android:id="@+id/menu_item1"
        android:icon="@drawable/my_item_drawable"
        android:title="@string/menu_item1"
        android:showAsAction="ifRoom" />
</menu>

2 Create a style for the action bar and use a custom background:

<resources>
    <!-- the theme applied to the application or activity -->
    <style name="CustomActivityTheme" parent="@android:style/Theme.Holo">
        <item name="android:actionBarStyle">@style/MyActionBar</item>
        <!-- other activity and action bar styles here -->
    </style>
    <!-- style for the action bar backgrounds -->
    <style name="MyActionBar" parent="@android:style/Widget.Holo.ActionBar">
        <item name="android:background">@drawable/background</item>
        <item name="android:backgroundStacked">@drawable/background</item>
        <item name="android:backgroundSplit">@drawable/split_background</item>
    </style>
</resources>

3 Style again android:actionBarDivider

The android documentation is very usefull for that.

sorting a List of Map<String, String>

if you want to make use of lamdas and make it a bit easier to read

  List<Map<String,String>> results;

  Comparator<Map<String,String>> sortByName = Comparator.comparing(x -> x.get("Name"));

  public void doSomething(){
    results.sort(sortByName)
  }

Another git process seems to be running in this repository

For me for any reason :

rm .git/index.lock

Didn't work, so I just went to the .git file and deleted it manually which worked fantastically.

Error handling with try and catch in Laravel

You are inside a namespace so you should use \Exception to specify the global namespace:

try {

  $this->buildXMLHeader();

} catch (\Exception $e) {

    return $e->getMessage();
}

In your code you've used catch (Exception $e) so Exception is being searched in/as:

App\Services\PayUService\Exception

Since there is no Exception class inside App\Services\PayUService so it's not being triggered. Alternatively, you can use a use statement at the top of your class like use Exception; and then you can use catch (Exception $e).

how to declare global variable in SQL Server..?

My first question is which version of SQL Server are you using (i.e 2005, 2008, 2008 R2, 2012)?

Assuming you are using 2008 or later SQL uses scope for variable determination. I believe 2005 still had global variables that would use @@variablename instead of @variable name which would define the difference between global and local variables. Starting in 2008 I believe this was changed to a scope defined variable designation structure. For example to create a global variable the @variable has to be defined at the start of a procedure, function, view, etc. In 2008 and later @@defined system variables for system functions I do believe. I could explain further if you explained the version and also where the variable is being defined, and the error that you are getting.

Handling JSON Post Request in Go

You need to read from req.Body. The ParseForm method is reading from the req.Body and then parsing it in standard HTTP encoded format. What you want is to read the body and parse it in JSON format.

Here's your code updated.

package main

import (
    "encoding/json"
    "log"
    "net/http"
    "io/ioutil"
)

type test_struct struct {
    Test string
}

func test(rw http.ResponseWriter, req *http.Request) {
    body, err := ioutil.ReadAll(req.Body)
    if err != nil {
        panic(err)
    }
    log.Println(string(body))
    var t test_struct
    err = json.Unmarshal(body, &t)
    if err != nil {
        panic(err)
    }
    log.Println(t.Test)
}

func main() {
    http.HandleFunc("/test", test)
    log.Fatal(http.ListenAndServe(":8082", nil))
}

How do I parse a string with a decimal point to a double?

The below is less efficient, but I use this logic. This is valid only if you have two digits after decimal point.

double val;

if (temp.Text.Split('.').Length > 1)
{
    val = double.Parse(temp.Text.Split('.')[0]);

    if (temp.Text.Split('.')[1].Length == 1)
        val += (0.1 * double.Parse(temp.Text.Split('.')[1]));
    else
        val += (0.01 * double.Parse(temp.Text.Split('.')[1]));
}
else
    val = double.Parse(RR(temp.Text));

Using Font Awesome icon for bullet points, with a single list item element

In Font Awesome 5 it can be done using pure CSS as in some of the above answers with some modifications.

ul {
  list-style-type: none;
}

li:before {
  position: absolute;
  font-family: 'Font Awesome 5 free';
          /*  Use the Name of the Font Awesome free font, e.g.:
           - 'Font Awesome 5 Free' for Regular and Solid symbols;
           - 'Font Awesome 5 Brand' for Brands symbols.
           - 'Font Awesome 5 Pro' for Regular and Solid symbols (Professional License);
          */
  content: "\f1fc"; /* Unicode value of the icon to use: */
  font-weight: 900; /* This is important, change the value according to the font family name
                       used above. See the link below  */
  color: red;
}

Without the correct font-weight, it will only show a blank square.

Is there a way to add a gif to a Markdown file?

in addition to all answers above:

if you want to use a gif for your github repository README.md and don't want to address it from your root directory, it's not enough if you just copy the url of your browser, for example your browser URL is sth like:

https://github.com/ashkan-nasirzadeh/simpleShell/blob/master/README%20assets/shell-gif.gif

but you should open your gif in your github account and right click on it and click copy image address or sth like that which is sth like this:

https://github.com/ashkan-nasirzadeh/simpleShell/blob/master/README%20assets/shell-gif.gif?raw=true

How do I check if a string is unicode or ascii?

In Python 3, all strings are sequences of Unicode characters. There is a bytes type that holds raw bytes.

In Python 2, a string may be of type str or of type unicode. You can tell which using code something like this:

def whatisthis(s):
    if isinstance(s, str):
        print "ordinary string"
    elif isinstance(s, unicode):
        print "unicode string"
    else:
        print "not a string"

This does not distinguish "Unicode or ASCII"; it only distinguishes Python types. A Unicode string may consist of purely characters in the ASCII range, and a bytestring may contain ASCII, encoded Unicode, or even non-textual data.

How to use Monitor (DDMS) tool to debug application

I think that I got a solution for this. You don't have to start monitor but you can use DDMS instead almost like in Eclipse.

Start Android Studio-> pick breakpoint-> Run-> Debug-> Go to %sdk\tools in Terminal window and run ddms.bat to run DDMS without Monitor running (since it won't let you run ADB). You can now start profiling or debug step-by-step.

Hope this helps you.

Docker-Compose with multiple services

The thing is that you are using the option -t when running your container.

Could you check if enabling the tty option (see reference) in your docker-compose.yml file the container keeps running?

version: '2'
services:
  ubuntu:
        build: .
        container_name: ubuntu
        volumes:
            - ~/sph/laravel52:/www/laravel
        ports:

Password masking console application

Taking the top answer, as well as the suggestions from its comments, and modifying it to use SecureString instead of String, test for all control keys, and not error or write an extra "*" to the screen when the password length is 0, my solution is:

public static SecureString getPasswordFromConsole(String displayMessage) {
    SecureString pass = new SecureString();
    Console.Write(displayMessage);
    ConsoleKeyInfo key;

    do {
        key = Console.ReadKey(true);

        // Backspace Should Not Work
        if (!char.IsControl(key.KeyChar)) {
            pass.AppendChar(key.KeyChar);
            Console.Write("*");
        } else {
            if (key.Key == ConsoleKey.Backspace && pass.Length > 0) {
                pass.RemoveAt(pass.Length - 1);
                Console.Write("\b \b");
            }
        }
    }
    // Stops Receving Keys Once Enter is Pressed
    while (key.Key != ConsoleKey.Enter);
    return pass;
}

Are SSL certificates bound to the servers ip address?

How to update Identity Column in SQL Server?

You can not update identity column.

SQL Server does not allow to update the identity column unlike what you can do with other columns with an update statement.

Although there are some alternatives to achieve a similar kind of requirement.

When Identity column value needs to be updated for new records

Use DBCC CHECKIDENT which checks the current identity value for the table and if it's needed, changes the identity value.

DBCC CHECKIDENT('tableName', RESEED, NEW_RESEED_VALUE)

When Identity column value needs to be updated for existing records

Use IDENTITY_INSERT which allows explicit values to be inserted into the identity column of a table.

SET IDENTITY_INSERT YourTable {ON|OFF}

Example:

-- Set Identity insert on so that value can be inserted into this column
SET IDENTITY_INSERT YourTable ON
GO
-- Insert the record which you want to update with new value in the identity column
INSERT INTO YourTable(IdentityCol, otherCol) VALUES(13,'myValue')
GO
-- Delete the old row of which you have inserted a copy (above) (make sure about FK's)
DELETE FROM YourTable WHERE ID=3
GO
--Now set the idenetity_insert OFF to back to the previous track
SET IDENTITY_INSERT YourTable OFF

How to import popper.js?

Url to a google maps page to show a pin given a latitude / longitude?

From my notes:

http://maps.google.com/maps?q=37.4185N+122.08774W+(label)&ll=37.419731,-122.088715&spn=0.004250,0.011579&t=h&iwloc=A&hl=en

Which parses like this:

    q=latN+lonW+(label)     location of teardrop

    t=k             keyhole (satelite map)
    t=h             hybrid

    ll=lat,-lon     center of map
    spn=w.w,h.h     span of map, degrees

iwloc has something to do with the info window. hl is obviously language.

How to call a VbScript from a Batch File without opening an additional command prompt

rem This is the command line version
cscript "C:\Users\guest\Desktop\123\MyScript.vbs"

rem This is the windowed version
wscript "C:\Users\guest\Desktop\123\MyScript.vbs"

You can also add the option //e:vbscript to make sure the scripting engine will recognize your script as a vbscript.

Windows/DOS batch files doesn't require escaping \ like *nix.

You can still use "C:\Users\guest\Desktop\123\MyScript.vbs", but this requires the user has *.vbs associated to wscript.

How does one sum only those rows in excel not filtered out?

You need to use the SUBTOTAL function. The SUBTOTAL function ignores rows that have been excluded by a filter.

The formula would look like this:

=SUBTOTAL(9,B1:B20)

The function number 9, tells it to use the SUM function on the data range B1:B20.

If you are 'filtering' by hiding rows, the function number should be updated to 109.

=SUBTOTAL(109,B1:B20)

The function number 109 is for the SUM function as well, but hidden rows are ignored.

Determining image file size + dimensions via Javascript?

How about this:

var imageUrl = 'https://cdn.sstatic.net/Sites/stackoverflow/img/sprites.svg';
var blob = null;
var xhr = new XMLHttpRequest(); 
xhr.open('GET', imageUrl, true); 
xhr.responseType = 'blob';
xhr.onload = function() 
{
    blob = xhr.response;
    console.log(blob, blob.size);
}
xhr.send();

getting " (1) no such column: _id10 " error

I think you missed a equal sign at:

Cursor c = ourDatabase.query(DATABASE_TABLE, column, KEY_ROWID + "" + l, null, null, null, null);

Change to:

Cursor c = ourDatabase.query(DATABASE_TABLE, column, KEY_ROWID + " = " + l, null, null, null, null);

How do you easily create empty matrices javascript?

`Array.fill`

Consider using fill:

Array(9).fill().map(()=>Array(9).fill())

The idea here is that fill() will fill out the items with undefined, which is enough to get map to work on them.

You could also fill directly:

Array(9).fill(Array(9))

Alternatives to Array(9).fill() include

Array(...Array(9))
[].push(...Array(9))
[].concat(Array(9))
Array.from(Array(9))

We can rewrite the solution a bit more semantically as:

function array9() { return Array(9).fill(); }
array9().map(array9)

function array(n) { return Array(n).fill(); }
array(9).map(() => array(9))

Array.from provides us with an optional second mapping argument, so we have the alternative of writing

Array.from(Array(9), () => Array.from(Array(9));

or, if you prefer

function array9(map) { return Array.from(Array(9), map); }
array9(array9);

For verbose description and examples, see Mozilla's Docs on Array.prototype.fill() here.
and for Array.from(), here.

Note that neither Array.prototype.fill() nor Array.from() has support in Internet Explorer. A polyfill for IE is available at the above MDN links.

Partitioning

partition(Array(81), 9)

if you have a partition utility handy. Here's a quick recursive one:

function partition(a, n) {
  return a.length ? [a.splice(0, n)].concat(partition(a, n)) : [];
}

Looping

We can loop a bit more efficiently with

var a = [], b;
while (a.push(b = []) < 9) while (b.push(null) < 9);

Taking advantage of the fact that push returns the new array length.

Does Java have a path joining method?

Try:

String path1 = "path1";
String path2 = "path2";

String joinedPath = new File(path1, path2).toString();

How to use matplotlib tight layout with Figure?

Just call fig.tight_layout() as you normally would. (pyplot is just a convenience wrapper. In most cases, you only use it to quickly generate figure and axes objects and then call their methods directly.)

There shouldn't be a difference between the QtAgg backend and the default backend (or if there is, it's a bug).

E.g.

import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

#-- In your case, you'd do something more like:
# from matplotlib.figure import Figure
# fig = Figure()
#-- ...but we want to use it interactive for a quick example, so 
#--    we'll do it this way
fig, axes = plt.subplots(nrows=4, ncols=4)

for i, ax in enumerate(axes.flat, start=1):
    ax.set_title('Test Axes {}'.format(i))
    ax.set_xlabel('X axis')
    ax.set_ylabel('Y axis')

plt.show()

Before Tight Layout

enter image description here

After Tight Layout

import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

fig, axes = plt.subplots(nrows=4, ncols=4)

for i, ax in enumerate(axes.flat, start=1):
    ax.set_title('Test Axes {}'.format(i))
    ax.set_xlabel('X axis')
    ax.set_ylabel('Y axis')

fig.tight_layout()

plt.show()

How to split a python string on new line characters

? Splitting line in Python:

Have you tried using str.splitlines() method?:

From the docs:

str.splitlines([keepends])

Return a list of the lines in the string, breaking at line boundaries. Line breaks are not included in the resulting list unless keepends is given and true.

For example:

>>> 'Line 1\n\nLine 3\rLine 4\r\n'.splitlines()
['Line 1', '', 'Line 3', 'Line 4']

>>> 'Line 1\n\nLine 3\rLine 4\r\n'.splitlines(True)
['Line 1\n', '\n', 'Line 3\r', 'Line 4\r\n']

Which delimiters are considered?

This method uses the universal newlines approach to splitting lines.

The main difference between Python 2.X and Python 3.X is that the former uses the universal newlines approach to splitting lines, so "\r", "\n", and "\r\n" are considered line boundaries for 8-bit strings, while the latter uses a superset of it that also includes:

\v or \x0b: Line Tabulation (added in Python 3.2).
\f or \x0c: Form Feed (added in Python 3.2).
\x1c: File Separator.
\x1d: Group Separator.
\x1e: Record Separator.
\x85: Next Line (C1 Control Code).
\u2028: Line Separator.
\u2029: Paragraph Separator.

splitlines VS split:

Unlike str.split() when a delimiter string sep is given, this method returns an empty list for the empty string, and a terminal line break does not result in an extra line:

>>> ''.splitlines()
[]

>>> 'Line 1\n'.splitlines()
['Line 1']

While str.split('\n') returns:

>>> ''.split('\n')
['']

>>> 'Line 1\n'.split('\n')
['Line 1', '']

?? Removing additional whitespace:

If you also need to remove additional leading or trailing whitespace, like spaces, that are ignored by str.splitlines(), you could use str.splitlines() together with str.strip():

>>> [str.strip() for str in 'Line 1  \n  \nLine 3 \rLine 4 \r\n'.splitlines()]
['Line 1', '', 'Line 3', 'Line 4']

? Removing empty strings (''):

Lastly, if you want to filter out the empty strings from the resulting list, you could use filter():

>>> # Python 2.X:
>>> filter(bool, 'Line 1\n\nLine 3\rLine 4\r\n'.splitlines())
['Line 1', 'Line 3', 'Line 4']

>>> # Python 3.X:
>>> list(filter(bool, 'Line 1\n\nLine 3\rLine 4\r\n'.splitlines()))
['Line 1', 'Line 3', 'Line 4']

Additional comment regarding the original question:

As the error you posted indicates and Burhan suggested, the problem is from the print. There's a related question about that could be useful to you: UnicodeEncodeError: 'charmap' codec can't encode - character maps to <undefined>, print function

How to solve "Kernel panic - not syncing - Attempted to kill init" -- without erasing any user data

Solution is :-

Restart
Go to advanced menu and then click on 'e'(edit the boot parameters)
Go down to the line which starts with linux and press End
Press space
Add the following at the end -> kernel.panic=1
Press F10 to restart

This basically forces your PC to restart because by default it does not restart after a kernel panic.

How to get the nvidia driver version from the command line?

To expand on ccc's answer, if you want to incorporate querying the card with a script, here is information on Nvidia site on how to do so:

https://nvidia.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/3751/~/useful-nvidia-smi-queries

Also, I found this thread researching powershell. Here is an example command that runs the utility to get the true memory available on the GPU to get you started.

# get gpu metrics
$cmd = "& 'C:\Program Files\NVIDIA Corporation\NVSMI\nvidia-smi' --query-gpu=name,utilization.memory,driver_version --format=csv"
$gpuinfo = invoke-expression $cmd | ConvertFrom-CSV
$gpuname = $gpuinfo.name
$gpuutil = $gpuinfo.'utilization.memory [%]'.Split(' ')[0]
$gpuDriver = $gpuinfo.driver_version

How to dynamically set bootstrap-datepicker's date value?

That really works.

Simple,

Easy to understand,

Single method to set and update plugin which worked for me.

$(".datepicker").datepicker("update", new Date());

Other ways to update

$('.datepicker').data({date: '2015-01-01'});
$('.datepicker').datepicker('update');

Dont forget to call update manually.

how to use substr() function in jquery?

If you want to extract from a tag then

$('.dep_buttons').text().substr(0,25)

With the mouseover event,

$(this).text($(this).text().substr(0, 25));

The above will extract the text of a tag, then extract again assign it back.

Get 2 Digit Number For The Month

My way of doing it is:

right('0'+right(datepart(month,[StartDate]),2),2)

The reason for the internal 'right' function is to prevent SQL from doing it as math add - which will leave us with one digit again.

Set timeout for ajax (jQuery)

You could use the timeout setting in the ajax options like this:

$.ajax({
    url: "test.html",
    timeout: 3000,
    error: function(){
        //do something
    },
    success: function(){
        //do something
    }
});

Read all about the ajax options here: http://api.jquery.com/jQuery.ajax/

Remember that when a timeout occurs, the error handler is triggered and not the success handler :)

What is the id( ) function used for?

I am starting out with python and I use id when I use the interactive shell to see whether my variables are assigned to the same thing or if they just look the same.

Every value is an id, which is a unique number related to where it is stored in the memory of the computer.

GIT vs. Perforce- Two VCS will enter... one will leave

I have no experience with Git, but I have with Mercurial which is also a distributed VCS. It depends on the project really, but in our case a distributed VCS suited the project as basically eliminated frequent broken builds.

I think it depends on the project really, as some are better suited towards a client-server VCS, and others towads a distributed one.

How to upload a file using Java HttpClient library working with PHP

For those having a hard time implementing the accepted answer (which requires org.apache.http.entity.mime.MultipartEntity) you may be using org.apache.httpcomponents 4.2.* In this case, you have to explicitly install httpmime dependency, in my case:

<dependency>
    <groupId>org.apache.httpcomponents</groupId>
    <artifactId>httpmime</artifactId>
    <version>4.2.5</version>
</dependency>

Truncate all tables in a MySQL database in one command?

We can write a bash script like below

truncate_tables_in_mysql() {
    type mysql >/dev/null 2>&1 && echo "MySQL present." || sudo apt-get install -y mysql-client
    
    tables=$(mysql -h 127.0.0.1 -P $MYSQL_PORT -u $MYSQL_USER  -p$MYSQL_PASSWORD -e "USE $BACKEND_DATABASE;    
SHOW TABLES;")
    tables_list=($tables)
    
    query_string="USE $BACKEND_DATABASE; SET FOREIGN_KEY_CHECKS = 0;"
    for table in "${tables_list[@]:1}"
    do
        query_string="$query_string TRUNCATE TABLE \`$table\`; "
    done
    query_string="$query_string SET FOREIGN_KEY_CHECKS = 1;"
    
    mysql -h 127.0.0.1 -P $MYSQL_PORT -u $MYSQL_USER -p$MYSQL_PASSWORD -e "$query_string"
}

You can replace env variables with your MySQL details. Using one command you can truncate all the tables in a DB.

Error: Can't set headers after they are sent to the client

error find by itself after a RND :

1) my error code :

return res.sendStatus(200).json({ data: result });

2) my success code

return res.status(200).json({ data: result });

the difference is that i used sendStatus() instead of status().

Are the PUT, DELETE, HEAD, etc methods available in most web browsers?

XMLHttpRequest is a standard object in the JavaScript Object model.

According to Wikipedia, XMLHttpRequest first appeared in Internet Explorer 5 as an ActiveX object, but has since been made into a standard and has been included for use in JavaScript in the Mozilla family since 1.0, Apple Safari 1.2, Opera 7.60-p1, and IE 7.0.

The open() method on the object takes the HTTP Method as an argument - and is specified as taking any valid HTTP method (see the item number 5 of the link) - including GET, POST, HEAD, PUT and DELETE, as specified by RFC 2616.

As a side note IE 7–8 only permit the following HTTP methods: "GET", "POST", "HEAD", "PUT", "DELETE", "MOVE", "PROPFIND", "PROPPATCH", "MKCOL", "COPY", "LOCK", "UNLOCK", and "OPTIONS".

CSS white space at bottom of page despite having both min-height and height tag

Delete element in a slice

I'm getting an index out of range error with the accepted answer solution. Reason: When range start, it is not iterate value one by one, it is iterate by index. If you modified a slice while it is in range, it will induce some problem.

Old Answer:

chars := []string{"a", "a", "b"}

for i, v := range chars {
    fmt.Printf("%+v, %d, %s\n", chars, i, v)
    if v == "a" {
        chars = append(chars[:i], chars[i+1:]...)
    }
}
fmt.Printf("%+v", chars)

Expected :

[a a b], 0, a
[a b], 0, a
[b], 0, b
Result: [b]

Actual:

// Autual
[a a b], 0, a
[a b], 1, b
[a b], 2, b
Result: [a b]

Correct Way (Solution):

chars := []string{"a", "a", "b"}

for i := 0; i < len(chars); i++ {
    if chars[i] == "a" {
        chars = append(chars[:i], chars[i+1:]...)
        i-- // form the remove item index to start iterate next item
    }
}

fmt.Printf("%+v", chars)

You can only check for NA values with is.na().

Date in to UTC format Java

java.time

It’s about time someone provides the modern answer. The modern solution uses java.time, the modern Java date and time API. The classes SimpleDateFormat and Date used in the question and in a couple of the other answers are poorly designed and long outdated, the former in particular notoriously troublesome. TimeZone is poorly designed to. I recommend you avoid those.

    ZoneId utc = ZoneId.of("Etc/UTC");
    DateTimeFormatter targetFormatter = DateTimeFormatter.ofPattern(
            "MM/dd/yyyy hh:mm:ss a zzz", Locale.ENGLISH);

    String itsAlarmDttm = "2013-10-22T01:37:56";
    ZonedDateTime utcDateTime = LocalDateTime.parse(itsAlarmDttm)
            .atZone(ZoneId.systemDefault())
            .withZoneSameInstant(utc);
    String formatterUtcDateTime = utcDateTime.format(targetFormatter);
    System.out.println(formatterUtcDateTime);

When running in my time zone, Europe/Copenhagen, the output is:

10/21/2013 11:37:56 PM UTC

I have assumed that the string you got was in the default time zone of your JVM, a fragile assumption since that default setting can be changed at any time from another part of your program or another programming running in the same JVM. If you can, instead specify time zone explicitly, for example ZoneId.of("Europe/Podgorica") or ZoneId.of("Asia/Kolkata").

I am exploiting the fact that you string is in ISO 8601 format, the format the the modern classes parse as their default, that is, without any explicit formatter.

I am using a ZonedDateTime for the result date-time because it allows us to format it with UTC in the formatted string to eliminate any and all doubt. For other purposes one would typically have wanted an OffsetDateTime or an Instant instead.

I had this same problem and it seemed to be related to using the same database connection for concurrent tasks. There might be some alternative solutions (maybe better), but I solved it by setting MaxConcurrentExecutables to 1.

CSS: Fix row height

I haven't tried it but if you put a div in your table cell set so that it will have scrollbars if needed, then you could insert in there, with a fixed height on the div and it should keep your table row to a fixed height.

Adding to a vector of pair

Using emplace_back function is way better than any other method since it creates an object in-place of type T where vector<T>, whereas push_back expects an actual value from you.

vector<pair<string,double>> revenue;

// make_pair function constructs a pair objects which is expected by push_back
revenue.push_back(make_pair("cash", 12.32));

// emplace_back passes the arguments to the constructor
// function and gets the constructed object to the referenced space
revenue.emplace_back("cash", 12.32);

PHP - concatenate or directly insert variables in string

Go with the first and use single quotes!

It's easier to read, meaning other programmers will know what's happening
It works slightly faster, the way opcodes are created when PHP dissects your source code, it's basically gonna do that anyway, so give it a helping hand!
If you also use single quotes instead of double quotes you'll boost your performance even more.

The only situations when you should use double quotes, is when you need \r, \n, \t! The overhead is just not worth it to use it in any other case.

You should also check PHP variable concatenation, phpbench.com for some benchmarks on different methods of doing things.

How can I change the user on Git Bash?

For Mac Users

I am using Mac and I was facing same problem while I was trying to push a project from Android Studio. The reason for that other user had previously logged into Github and his credentials were saved in Keychain Access.

You need to remove those credentials from Keychain Access and then try to push.

Hope it help to Mac users.

Writing a VLOOKUP function in vba

'Source code does not match the bytecode' when debugging on a device

My app is compiled on API LEVEL 29, but debugging on real device on API LEVEL 28.I got the warning source code does not match the bytecode in AndroidStudio.I fixed it thought these steps:

Go to Preferences>Instant Run: uncheck the instant run
Go to Build>Clean Build
Re-RUN the app

Now, the debug runs normal.

NSArray + remove item from array

As others suggested, NSMutableArray has methods to do so but sometimes you are forced to use NSArray, I'd use:

NSArray* newArray = [oldArray subarrayWithRange:NSMakeRange(1, [oldArray count] - 1)];

This way, the oldArray stays as it was but a newArray will be created with the first item removed.

Can lambda functions be templated?

PHP date yesterday

How easy :)

date("F j, Y", strtotime( '-1 days' ) );

Example:

Output:

2018-07-17 07:02:43

Python string class like StringBuilder in C#?

I have used the code of Oliver Crow (link given by Andrew Hare) and adapted it a bit to tailor Python 2.7.3. (by using timeit package). I ran on my personal computer, Lenovo T61, 6GB RAM, Debian GNU/Linux 6.0.6 (squeeze).

Here is the result for 10,000 iterations:

method1:  0.0538418292999 secs

process size 5272 kb
method6:  0.0542731285095 secs

and for 5,000,000 iterations (method 2 was ignored because it ran tooo slowly, like forever):

method1:  5.88603997231 secs

It is quite obvious that Python guys have done pretty great job to optimize string concatenation, and as Hoare said: "premature optimization is the root of all evil" :-)

How do disable paging by swiping with finger in ViewPager but still be able to swipe programmatically?

If you want to implement the same for Android in Xamarin, here is a translation to C#

Python NoneType object is not callable (beginner)

You should not pass the call function hi() to the loop() function, This will give the result.

def hi():     
  print('hi')

def loop(f, n):         #f repeats n times
  if n<=0:
    return
  else:
    f()             
    loop(f, n-1)    

loop(hi, 5)            # Do not use hi() function inside loop() function

HTML <sup /> tag affecting line height, how to make it consistent?

Answer from here, works in both phantomjs and in email-embedded HTML:

Global environment variables in a shell script

When you run a shell script, it's done in a sub-shell so it cannot affect the parent shell's environment. You want to source the script by doing:

. ./setfoo.sh

This executes it in the context of the current shell, not as a sub shell.

From the bash man page:

. filename [arguments]
source filename [arguments]

Read and execute commands from filename in the current shell environment and return the exit status of the last command executed from filename.

If filename does not contain a slash, file names in PATH are used to find the directory containing filename.

The file searched for in PATH need not be executable. When bash is not in POSIX mode, the current directory is searched if no file is found in PATH.

If the sourcepath option to the shopt builtin command is turned off, the PATH is not searched.

If any arguments are supplied, they become the positional parameters when filename is executed.

Otherwise the positional parameters are unchanged. The return status is the status of the last command exited within the script (0 if no commands are executed), and false if filename is not found or cannot be read.

Error - replacement has [x] rows, data has [y]

TL;DR ...and late to the party, but that short explanation might help future googlers..

In general that error message means that the replacement doesn't fit into the corresponding column of the dataframe.

A minimal example:

df <- data.frame(a = 1:2); df$a <- 1:3

throws the error

Error in $<-.data.frame(*tmp*, a, value = 1:3) : replacement has 3 rows, data has 2

which is clear, because the vector a of df has 2 entries (rows) whilst the vector we try to replace it has 3 entries (rows).

What is the best/simplest way to read in an XML file in Java application?

Look into JAXB.

With ng-bind-html-unsafe removed, how do I inject HTML?

Instead of declaring a function in your scope, as suggested by Alex, you can convert it to a simple filter :

angular.module('myApp')
    .filter('to_trusted', ['$sce', function($sce){
        return function(text) {
            return $sce.trustAsHtml(text);
        };
    }]);

Then you can use it like this :

<div ng-bind-html="preview_data.preview.embed.html | to_trusted"></div>

And here is a working example : http://jsfiddle.net/leeroy/6j4Lg/1/

What does -z mean in Bash?

-z

string is null, that is, has zero length

String=''   # Zero-length ("null") string variable.

if [ -z "$String" ]
then

else
  echo "\$String is NOT null."
fi     # $String is null.

How do I enable FFMPEG logging and where can I find the FFMPEG log file?

ffmpeg logs to stderr, and can log to a file with a different log-level from stderr. The -report command-line option doesn't give you control of the log file name or the log level, so setting the environment variable is preferable.

(-v is a synonym for -loglevel. Run ffmpeg -v help to see the levels. Run ffmpeg -h full | less to see EVERYTHING. Or consult the online docs, or their wiki pages like the h.264 encode guide).

#!/bin/bash

of=out.mkv
FFREPORT="level=32:file=$of.log" ffmpeg -v verbose   -i src.mp4 -c:a copy -preset slower -c:v libx264 -crf 21 "$of"

That will trancode src.mp4 with x264, and set the log level for stderr to "verbose", and the log level for out.mkv.log to "status".

(AV_LOG_WARNING=24, AV_LOG_INFO=32, AV_LOG_VERBOSE=40, etc.). Support for this was added 2 years ago, so you need a non-ancient version of ffmpeg. (Always a good idea anyway, for security / bugfixes and speedups)

A few codecs, like -c:v libx265, write directly to stderr instead of using ffmpeg's logging infrastructure. So their log messages don't end up in the report file. I assume this is a bug / TODO-list item.

To log stderr, while still seeing it in a terminal, you can use tee(1).

If you use a log level that includes status line updates (the default -v info, or higher), they will be included in the log file, separated with ^M (carriage return aka \r). There's no log level that includes encoder stats (like SSIM) but not status-line updates, so the best option is probably to filter that stream.

If don't want to filter (e.g. so the fps / bitrate at each status-update interval is there in the file), you can use less -r to pass them through directly to your terminal so you can view the files cleanly. If you have .enc logs from several encodes that you want to flip through, less -r ++G *.enc works great. (++G means start at the end of the file, for all files). With single-key key bindings like . and , for next file and previous file, you can flip through some log files very nicely. (the default bindings are :n and :p).

If you do want to filter, sed 's/.*\r//' works perfectly for ffmpeg output. (In the general case, you need something like vt100.py, but not for just carriage returns). There are (at least) two ways to do this with tee + sed: tee to /dev/tty and pipe tee's output into sed, or use a process substitution to tee into a pipe to sed.

# pass stdout and stderr through to the terminal, 
## and log a filtered version to a file (with only the last status-line update).

of="$1-x265.mkv"
ffmpeg -v info -i "$1" -c:a copy -c:v libx265 ... "$of" |&    # pipe stdout and stderr
   tee /dev/tty | sed 's/.*\r//' >> "$of.enc"

## or with process substitution where tee's arg will be something like /dev/fd/123

ffmpeg -v info -i "$1" -c:a copy -c:v libx265 ... "$of" |&
  tee >(sed 's/.*\r//' >> "$of.enc")

For testing a few different encode parameters, you can make a function like this one that I used recently to test some stuff. I had it all on one line so I could easily up-arrow and edit it, but I'll un-obfuscate it here. (That's why there are ;s at the end of each line)

ffenc-testclip(){
  # v should be set by the caller, to a vertical resolution.  We scale to WxH, where W is a multiple of 8 (-vf scale=-8:$v)
  db=0;   # convenient to use shell vars to encode settings that you want to include in the filename and the ffmpeg cmdline
  [email protected].${v}p.x265$pre.mkv; 
  [[ -e "$of.enc" ]]&&echo "$of.enc exists"&&return;   # early-out if the file exists

  # encode 25 seconds starting at 21m15s (or the keyframe before that)
  nice -14 ffmpeg -ss $((21*60+15))  -i src.mp4 -t 25  -map 0 -metadata title= -color_primaries bt709 -color_trc bt709 -colorspace bt709 -sws_flags lanczos+print_info -c:a copy -c:v libx265 -b:v 1500k -vf scale=-8:$v  -preset $pre -ssim 1 -x265-params ssim=1:cu-stats=1:deblock=$db:aq-mode=1:lookahead-slices=0 "$of" |&
   tee /dev/tty | sed 's/.*\r//' >> "$of.enc";
}

# and use it with nested loops like this.
for pre in fast slow;  do for v in  360 480 648 792;do  ffenc-testclip ;done;done

less -r ++G *.enc       # -r is useful if you didn't use sed

Note that it tests for existence of the output video file to avoid spewing extra garbage into the log file if it already exists. Even so, I used and append (>>) redirect.

It would be "cleaner" to write a shell function that took args instead of looking at shell variables, but this was convenient and easy to write for my own use. That's also why I saved space by not properly quoting all my variable expansions. ($v instead of "$v")

How to setup virtual environment for Python in VS Code?

I fixed the issue without changing the python path as that did not seem like the right solution for me. The following solution worked for me, hopefully it works for you as well :))

Open cmd in windows / shell in Linux/Mac.
Activate your virtualenv (using source activate / activate.bat / activate.ps1 if using power shell)

C:\Users\<myUserName>\Videos\myFolder>django-project\Scripts\activate.bat (django-project) C:\Users\<myUserName>\Videos\myFolder>
Navigate to your project directory and open vscode there.

(django-project) C:\Users\prash\Videos\myFolder\projects>code .
in VS Code, goto File --> Preferences --> Settings (dont worry you dont need to open the json file)
In the setting search bar search for virtual / venv and hit enter. You should find the below in the search bar:

Python: Venv Folders Folders in your home directory to look into for virtual environments (supports pyenv, direnv and virtualenvwrapper by default).

Add item, and then enter the path of the scripts of your virtuanenv which has the activate file in it. For example in my system, it is:

C:\Users\<myUserName>\Videos\myFolder\django-project\Scripts\
Save it and restart VS Code.
To restart, open cmd again, navigate to your project path and open vs code. (Note that your venv should be activated in cmd before you open vs code from cmd)

Command to open vs code from cmd:

Bulk Insertion in Laravel using eloquent ORM

For category relations insertion I came across the same problem and had no idea, except that in my eloquent model I used Self() to have an instance of the same class in foreach to record multiple saves and grabing ids.

foreach($arCategories as $v)
{                
    if($v>0){
        $obj = new Self(); // this is to have new instance of own
        $obj->page_id = $page_id;
        $obj->category_id = $v;
        $obj->save();
    }
}

without "$obj = new Self()" it only saves single record (when $obj was $this)

How to send a compressed archive that contains executables so that Google's attachment filter won't reject it

Try this:

Ruby: Can I write multi-line string with no concatenation?

Elegant Answer Today:

<<~TEXT
Hi #{user.name}, 

Thanks for raising the flag, we're always happy to help you.
Your issue will be resolved within 2 hours.
Please be patient!

Thanks again,
Team #{user.organization.name}

Theres a difference in <<-TEXT and <<~TEXT, former retains the spacing inside block and latter doesn't.

There are other options as well. Like concatenation etc. but this one makes more sense in general.

If I am wrong here, let me know how...

Possible heap pollution via varargs parameter

@SafeVarargs does not prevent it from happening, however it mandates that the compiler is stricter when compiling code that uses it.

http://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/api/java/lang/SafeVarargs.html explains this in futher detail.

Heap pollution is when you get a ClassCastException when doing an operation on a generic interface and it contains another type than declared.

TypeError: int() argument must be a string, a bytes-like object or a number, not 'list'

What the error is telling, is that you can't convert an entire list into an integer. You could get an index from the list and convert that into an integer:

x = ["0", "1", "2"] 
y = int(x[0]) #accessing the zeroth element

If you're trying to convert a whole list into an integer, you are going to have to convert the list into a string first:

x = ["0", "1", "2"]
y = ''.join(x) # converting list into string
z = int(y)

If your list elements are not strings, you'll have to convert them to strings before using str.join:

x = [0, 1, 2]
y = ''.join(map(str, x))
z = int(y)

Also, as stated above, make sure that you're not returning a nested list.

Using Application context everywhere?

There are a couple of potential problems with this approach, though in a lot of circumstances (such as your example) it will work well.

In particular you should be careful when dealing with anything that deals with the GUI that requires a Context. For example, if you pass the application Context into the LayoutInflater you will get an Exception. Generally speaking, your approach is excellent: it's good practice to use an Activity's Context within that Activity, and the Application Context when passing a context beyond the scope of an Activity to avoid memory leaks.

Also, as an alternative to your pattern you can use the shortcut of calling getApplicationContext() on a Context object (such as an Activity) to get the Application Context.

How to quit a java app from within the program

System.exit() is usually not the best way, but it depends on your application.

The usual way of ending an application is by exiting the main() method. This does not work when there are other non-deamon threads running, as is usual for applications with a graphical user interface (AWT, Swing etc.). For these applications, you either find a way to end the GUI event loop (don't know if that is possible with the AWT or Swing), or invoke System.exit().

Angular 2 - Checking for server errors from subscribe

You can achieve with following way

    this.projectService.create(project)

         console.log(result);
        },
        error => {
            console.log(error);
            this.errors = error
        }
    ); 
}

if (!this.errors) {
    //route to new page

Boolean operators ( &&, -a, ||, -o ) in Bash

Rule of thumb: Use -a and -o inside square brackets, && and || outside.

It's important to understand the difference between shell syntax and the syntax of the [ command.

&& and || are shell operators. They are used to combine the results of two commands. Because they are shell syntax, they have special syntactical significance and cannot be used as arguments to commands.
[ is not special syntax. It's actually a command with the name [, also known as test. Since [ is just a regular command, it uses -a and -o for its and and or operators. It can't use && and || because those are shell syntax that commands don't get to see.

But wait! Bash has a fancier test syntax in the form of [[ ]]. If you use double square brackets, you get access to things like regexes and wildcards. You can also use shell operators like &&, ||, <, and > freely inside the brackets because, unlike [, the double bracketed form is special shell syntax. Bash parses [[ itself so you can write things like [[ $foo == 5 && $bar == 6 ]].

How can I delete a newline if it is the last character in a file?

You can take advantage of the fact that shell command substitutions remove trailing newline characters:

Simple form that works in bash, ksh, zsh:

printf %s "$(< in.txt)" > out.txt

Portable (POSIX-compliant) alternative (slightly less efficient):

printf %s "$(cat in.txt)" > out.txt

Note:

If in.txt ends with multiple newline characters, the command substitution removes all of them.^{Thanks, Sparhawk} (It doesn't remove whitespace characters other than trailing newlines.)
Since this approach reads the entire input file into memory, it is only advisable for smaller files.
printf %s ensures that no newline is appended to the output (it is the POSIX-compliant alternative to the nonstandard echo -n; see http://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/009696799/utilities/echo.html and https://unix.stackexchange.com/a/65819)

A guide to the other answers:

If Perl is available, go for the accepted answer - it is simple and memory-efficient (doesn't read the whole input file at once).
Otherwise, consider ghostdog74's Awk answer - it's obscure, but also memory-efficient; a more readable equivalent (POSIX-compliant) is:
awk 'NR > 1 { print prev } { prev=$0 } END { ORS=""; print }' in.txt
Printing is delayed by one line so that the final line can be handled in the END block, where it is printed without a trailing \n due to setting the output-record separator (OFS) to an empty string.
If you want a verbose, but fast and robust solution that truly edits in-place (as opposed to creating a temp. file that then replaces the original), consider jrockway's Perl script.

Label axes on Seaborn Barplot

Seaborn's barplot returns an axis-object (not a figure). This means you can do the following:

import pandas as pd
import seaborn as sns
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

fake = pd.DataFrame({'cat': ['red', 'green', 'blue'], 'val': [1, 2, 3]})
ax = sns.barplot(x = 'val', y = 'cat', 
              data = fake, 
              color = 'black')
ax.set(xlabel='common xlabel', ylabel='common ylabel')
plt.show()

Formatting floats in a numpy array

In order to make numpy display float arrays in an arbitrary format, you can define a custom function that takes a float value as its input and returns a formatted string:

In [1]: float_formatter = "{:.2f}".format

The f here means fixed-point format (not 'scientific'), and the .2 means two decimal places (you can read more about string formatting here).

Let's test it out with a float value:

In [2]: float_formatter(1.234567E3)
Out[2]: '1234.57'

To make numpy print all float arrays this way, you can pass the formatter= argument to np.set_printoptions:

In [3]: np.set_printoptions(formatter={'float_kind':float_formatter})

Now numpy will print all float arrays this way:

In [4]: np.random.randn(5) * 10
Out[4]: array([5.25, 3.91, 0.04, -1.53, 6.68]

Note that this only affects numpy arrays, not scalars:

In [5]: np.pi
Out[5]: 3.141592653589793

It also won't affect non-floats, complex floats etc - you will need to define separate formatters for other scalar types.

You should also be aware that this only affects how numpy displays float values - the actual values that will be used in computations will retain their original precision.

For example:

In [6]: a = np.array([1E-9])

In [7]: a
Out[7]: array([0.00])

In [8]: a == 0
Out[8]: array([False], dtype=bool)

numpy prints a as if it were equal to 0, but it is not - it still equals 1E-9.

If you actually want to round the values in your array in a way that affects how they will be used in calculations, you should use np.round, as others have already pointed out.

Formatting Phone Numbers in PHP

Don't reinvent the wheel! Import this amazing library:
https://github.com/giggsey/libphonenumber-for-php

$defaultCountry = 'SE'; // Based on the country of the user
$phoneUtil = PhoneNumberUtil::getInstance();
$swissNumberProto = $phoneUtil->parse($phoneNumber, $defaultCountry);

return $phoneUtil->format($swissNumberProto, PhoneNumberFormat::INTERNATIONAL);

It is based on Google's library for parsing, formatting, and validating international phone numbers: https://github.com/google/libphonenumber

Check if current date is between two dates Oracle SQL

You don't need to apply to_date() to sysdate. It is already there:

select 1
from dual 
WHERE sysdate BETWEEN TO_DATE('28/02/2014', 'DD/MM/YYYY') AND TO_DATE('20/06/2014', 'DD/MM/YYYY');

If you are concerned about the time component on the date, then use trunc():

select 1
from dual 
WHERE trunc(sysdate) BETWEEN TO_DATE('28/02/2014', 'DD/MM/YYYY') AND
                             TO_DATE('20/06/2014', 'DD/MM/YYYY');

Construct pandas DataFrame from items in nested dictionary

So I used to use a for loop for iterating through the dictionary as well, but one thing I've found that works much faster is to convert to a panel and then to a dataframe. Say you have a dictionary d

import pandas as pd
d
{'RAY Index': {datetime.date(2014, 11, 3): {'PX_LAST': 1199.46,
'PX_OPEN': 1200.14},
datetime.date(2014, 11, 4): {'PX_LAST': 1195.323, 'PX_OPEN': 1197.69},
datetime.date(2014, 11, 5): {'PX_LAST': 1200.936, 'PX_OPEN': 1195.32},
datetime.date(2014, 11, 6): {'PX_LAST': 1206.061, 'PX_OPEN': 1200.62}},
'SPX Index': {datetime.date(2014, 11, 3): {'PX_LAST': 2017.81,
'PX_OPEN': 2018.21},
datetime.date(2014, 11, 4): {'PX_LAST': 2012.1, 'PX_OPEN': 2015.81},
datetime.date(2014, 11, 5): {'PX_LAST': 2023.57, 'PX_OPEN': 2015.29},
datetime.date(2014, 11, 6): {'PX_LAST': 2031.21, 'PX_OPEN': 2023.33}}}

The command

pd.Panel(d)
<class 'pandas.core.panel.Panel'>
Dimensions: 2 (items) x 2 (major_axis) x 4 (minor_axis)
Items axis: RAY Index to SPX Index
Major_axis axis: PX_LAST to PX_OPEN
Minor_axis axis: 2014-11-03 to 2014-11-06

where pd.Panel(d)[item] yields a dataframe

pd.Panel(d)['SPX Index']
2014-11-03  2014-11-04  2014-11-05 2014-11-06
PX_LAST 2017.81 2012.10 2023.57 2031.21
PX_OPEN 2018.21 2015.81 2015.29 2023.33

You can then hit the command to_frame() to turn it into a dataframe. I use reset_index as well to turn the major and minor axis into columns rather than have them as indices.

pd.Panel(d).to_frame().reset_index()
major   minor      RAY Index    SPX Index
PX_LAST 2014-11-03  1199.460    2017.81
PX_LAST 2014-11-04  1195.323    2012.10
PX_LAST 2014-11-05  1200.936    2023.57
PX_LAST 2014-11-06  1206.061    2031.21
PX_OPEN 2014-11-03  1200.140    2018.21
PX_OPEN 2014-11-04  1197.690    2015.81
PX_OPEN 2014-11-05  1195.320    2015.29
PX_OPEN 2014-11-06  1200.620    2023.33

Finally, if you don't like the way the frame looks you can use the transpose function of panel to change the appearance before calling to_frame() see documentation here http://pandas.pydata.org/pandas-docs/dev/generated/pandas.Panel.transpose.html

Just as an example

How to master AngularJS?

Please keep an eye on the mailing list for problems/solutions discussed by community members. https://groups.google.com/forum/?fromgroups#!forum/angular . It's been really useful to me.

How do I send a POST request as a JSON?

for python 3.4.2 I found the following will work:

import urllib.request
import json      

body = {'ids': [12, 14, 50]}  
myurl = "http://www.testmycode.com"

req = urllib.request.Request(myurl)
req.add_header('Content-Type', 'application/json; charset=utf-8')
jsondata = json.dumps(body)
jsondataasbytes = jsondata.encode('utf-8')   # needs to be bytes
req.add_header('Content-Length', len(jsondataasbytes))
response = urllib.request.urlopen(req, jsondataasbytes)

AngularJS - $http.post send data as json

Use JSON.stringify() to wrap your json

var parameter = JSON.stringify({type:"user", username:user_email, password:user_password});
    $http.post(url, parameter).
    success(function(data, status, headers, config) {
        // this callback will be called asynchronously
        // when the response is available
        console.log(data);
      }).
      error(function(data, status, headers, config) {
        // called asynchronously if an error occurs
        // or server returns response with an error status.
      });

How to make a floated div 100% height of its parent?

This helped me.

#outer {
    position:relative;
}
#inner {
    position:absolute;
    top:0;
    left:0px;
    right:0px;
    height:100%;
}

Change right: and left: to set preferable #inner width.

Select first row in each GROUP BY group?

For SQl Server the most efficient way is:

with
ids as ( --condition for split table into groups
    select i from (values (9),(12),(17),(18),(19),(20),(22),(21),(23),(10)) as v(i) 
) 
,src as ( 
    select * from yourTable where  <condition> --use this as filter for other conditions
)
,joined as (
    select tops.* from ids 
    cross apply --it`s like for each rows
    (
        select top(1) * 
        from src
        where CommodityId = ids.i 
    ) as tops
)
select * from joined

and don't forget to create clustered index for used columns

php var_dump() vs print_r()

var_dump() will show you the type of the thing as well as what's in it.

So you'll get => (string)"var" Example is here.

print_r() will just output the content.

Would output => "var" Example is here.

How to extract text from a PDF file?

You may want to use time proved xPDF and derived tools to extract text instead as pyPDF2 seems to have various issues with the text extraction still.

The long answer is that there are lot of variations how a text is encoded inside PDF and that it may require to decoded PDF string itself, then may need to map with CMAP, then may need to analyze distance between words and letters etc.

In case the PDF is damaged (i.e. displaying the correct text but when copying it gives garbage) and you really need to extract text, then you may want to consider converting PDF into image (using ImageMagik) and then use Tesseract to get text from image using OCR.

How to echo or print an array in PHP?

Human readable: (eg. can be log to text file..)

print_r( $arr_name , TRUE);

New line character in VB.Net?

In asp.net for giving new line character in string you should use <br> .

For window base application Environment.NewLine will work fine.

cat, grep and cut - translated to python

you need to use os.system module to execute shell command

import os
os.system('command')

if you want to save the output for later use, you need to use subprocess module

import subprocess
child = subprocess.Popen('command',stdout=subprocess.PIPE,shell=True)
output = child.communicate()[0]

IIS sc-win32-status codes

Here's the list of all Win32 error codes. You can use this page to lookup the error code mentioned in IIS logs:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms681381.aspx

You can also use command line utility net to find information about a Win32 error code. The syntax would be:
net helpmsg Win32_Status_Code

Bootstrap 4 - Glyphicons migration?

If you are using Laravel 5.6, it comes with Bootstrap 4. All you need to is:

npm install and npm install open-iconic --save

At /resources/assets/sass/app.scss change the line of of Google font import on line 2 to

@import '~open-iconic/font/css/open-iconic-bootstrap';

All you need to do now is

npm run watch

and include

<link rel="stylesheet" href="{{asset('css/app.css')}}">

on top of master blade file and <script src="{{asset('js/app.js')}}"></script> before closing body tag. You will get Bootstrap 4 and icon.

Usage is <span class="oi oi-cog"></span>

Refer here for icon details: Open Iconic: Recommended by Bootstrap 4

If on other project than Laravel, you can just do import @import 'node_modules/open-iconic/font/css/open-iconic-bootstrap-min.css'; in your style file.

Hope this helps. Happy trying.

Generate PDF from HTML using pdfMake in Angularjs

this is what it worked for me I'm using html2pdf from an Angular2 app, so I made a reference to this function in the controller

var html2pdf = (function(html2canvas, jsPDF) {

declared in html2pdf.js.

So I added just after the import declarations in my angular-controller this declaration:

declare function html2pdf(html2canvas, jsPDF): any;

then, from a method of my angular controller I'm calling this function:

generate_pdf(){
    this.someService.loadContent().subscribe(
      pdfContent => {
        html2pdf(pdfContent, {
          margin:       1,
          filename:     'myfile.pdf',
          image:        { type: 'jpeg', quality: 0.98 },
          html2canvas:  { dpi: 192, letterRendering: true },
          jsPDF:        { unit: 'in', format: 'A4', orientation: 'portrait' }
        });
      }
    );
  }

How to connect to Mysql Server inside VirtualBox Vagrant?

Here are the steps that worked for me after logging into the box:

Locate MySQL configuration file:

$ mysql --help | grep -A 1 "Default options"

Default options are read from the following files in the given order: /etc/my.cnf /etc/mysql/my.cnf ~/.my.cnf

On Ubuntu 16, the path is typically /etc/mysql/mysql.conf.d/mysqld.cnf

Change configuration file for bind-address:

If it exists, change the value as follows. If it doesn't exist, add it anywhere in the [mysqld] section.

bind-address = 0.0.0.0

Save your changes to the configuration file and restart the MySQL service.

service mysql restart

Create / Grant access to database user:

Connect to the MySQL database as the root user and run the following SQL commands:

mysql> CREATE USER 'username'@'%' IDENTIFIED BY 'password';

mysql> GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON mydb.* TO 'username'@'%';

Inserting one list into another list in java?

no... Once u have executed the statement anotherList.addAll(list) and after that if u change some list data it does not carry to another list

Java: Get last element after split

Save the array in a local variable and use the array's length field to find its length. Subtract one to account for it being 0-based:

String[] bits = one.split("-");
String lastOne = bits[bits.length-1];

Caveat emptor: if the original string is composed of only the separator, for example "-" or "---", bits.length will be 0 and this will throw an ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException. Example: https://onlinegdb.com/r1M-TJkZ8

How do you use bcrypt for hashing passwords in PHP?

bcrypt is a hashing algorithm which is scalable with hardware (via a configurable number of rounds). Its slowness and multiple rounds ensures that an attacker must deploy massive funds and hardware to be able to crack your passwords. Add to that per-password salts (bcrypt REQUIRES salts) and you can be sure that an attack is virtually unfeasible without either ludicrous amount of funds or hardware.

bcrypt uses the Eksblowfish algorithm to hash passwords. While the encryption phase of Eksblowfish and Blowfish are exactly the same, the key schedule phase of Eksblowfish ensures that any subsequent state depends on both salt and key (user password), and no state can be precomputed without the knowledge of both. Because of this key difference, bcrypt is a one-way hashing algorithm. You cannot retrieve the plain text password without already knowing the salt, rounds and key (password). [Source]

How to use bcrypt:

Using PHP >= 5.5-DEV

Password hashing functions have now been built directly into PHP >= 5.5. You may now use password_hash() to create a bcrypt hash of any password:

<?php
// Usage 1:
echo password_hash('rasmuslerdorf', PASSWORD_DEFAULT)."\n";
// $2y$10$xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
// For example:
// $2y$10$.vGA1O9wmRjrwAVXD98HNOgsNpDczlqm3Jq7KnEd1rVAGv3Fykk1a

// Usage 2:
$options = [
  'cost' => 11
];
echo password_hash('rasmuslerdorf', PASSWORD_BCRYPT, $options)."\n";
// $2y$11$6DP.V0nO7YI3iSki4qog6OQI5eiO6Jnjsqg7vdnb.JgGIsxniOn4C

To verify a user provided password against an existing hash, you may use the password_verify() as such:

<?php
// See the password_hash() example to see where this came from.
$hash = '$2y$07$BCryptRequires22Chrcte/VlQH0piJtjXl.0t1XkA8pw9dMXTpOq';

if (password_verify('rasmuslerdorf', $hash)) {
    echo 'Password is valid!';
} else {
    echo 'Invalid password.';
}

Using PHP >= 5.3.7, < 5.5-DEV (also RedHat PHP >= 5.3.3)

There is a compatibility library on GitHub created based on the source code of the above functions originally written in C, which provides the same functionality. Once the compatibility library is installed, usage is the same as above (minus the shorthand array notation if you are still on the 5.3.x branch).

Using PHP < 5.3.7 (DEPRECATED)

You can use crypt() function to generate bcrypt hashes of input strings. This class can automatically generate salts and verify existing hashes against an input. If you are using a version of PHP higher or equal to 5.3.7, it is highly recommended you use the built-in function or the compat library. This alternative is provided only for historical purposes.

class Bcrypt{
  private $rounds;

  public function __construct($rounds = 12) {
    if (CRYPT_BLOWFISH != 1) {
      throw new Exception("bcrypt not supported in this installation. See http://php.net/crypt");
    }

    $this->rounds = $rounds;
  }

  public function hash($input){
    $hash = crypt($input, $this->getSalt());

    if (strlen($hash) > 13)
      return $hash;

    return false;
  }

  public function verify($input, $existingHash){
    $hash = crypt($input, $existingHash);

    return $hash === $existingHash;
  }

  private function getSalt(){
    $salt = sprintf('$2a$%02d$', $this->rounds);

    $bytes = $this->getRandomBytes(16);

    $salt .= $this->encodeBytes($bytes);

    return $salt;
  }

  private $randomState;
  private function getRandomBytes($count){
    $bytes = '';

    if (function_exists('openssl_random_pseudo_bytes') &&
        (strtoupper(substr(PHP_OS, 0, 3)) !== 'WIN')) { // OpenSSL is slow on Windows
      $bytes = openssl_random_pseudo_bytes($count);
    }

    if ($bytes === '' && is_readable('/dev/urandom') &&
       ($hRand = @fopen('/dev/urandom', 'rb')) !== FALSE) {
      $bytes = fread($hRand, $count);
      fclose($hRand);
    }

    if (strlen($bytes) < $count) {
      $bytes = '';

      if ($this->randomState === null) {
        $this->randomState = microtime();
        if (function_exists('getmypid')) {
          $this->randomState .= getmypid();
        }
      }

      for ($i = 0; $i < $count; $i += 16) {
        $this->randomState = md5(microtime() . $this->randomState);

        if (PHP_VERSION >= '5') {
          $bytes .= md5($this->randomState, true);
        } else {
          $bytes .= pack('H*', md5($this->randomState));
        }
      }

      $bytes = substr($bytes, 0, $count);
    }

    return $bytes;
  }

  private function encodeBytes($input){
    // The following is code from the PHP Password Hashing Framework
    $itoa64 = './ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZabcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz0123456789';

    $output = '';
    $i = 0;
    do {
      $c1 = ord($input[$i++]);
      $output .= $itoa64[$c1 >> 2];
      $c1 = ($c1 & 0x03) << 4;
      if ($i >= 16) {
        $output .= $itoa64[$c1];
        break;
      }

      $c2 = ord($input[$i++]);
      $c1 |= $c2 >> 4;
      $output .= $itoa64[$c1];
      $c1 = ($c2 & 0x0f) << 2;

      $c2 = ord($input[$i++]);
      $c1 |= $c2 >> 6;
      $output .= $itoa64[$c1];
      $output .= $itoa64[$c2 & 0x3f];
    } while (true);

    return $output;
  }
}

You can use this code like this:

$bcrypt = new Bcrypt(15);

$hash = $bcrypt->hash('password');
$isGood = $bcrypt->verify('password', $hash);

Alternatively, you may also use the Portable PHP Hashing Framework.

ValueError: math domain error

You may also use math.log1p.

According to the official documentation :

math.log1p(x)

Return the natural logarithm of 1+x (base e). The result is calculated in a way which is accurate for x near zero.

You may convert back to the original value using math.expm1 which returns e raised to the power x, minus 1.

System.BadImageFormatException: Could not load file or assembly

It seems that you are using the 64-bit version of the tool to install a 32-bit/x86 architecture application. Look for the 32-bit version of the tool here:

C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v4.0.30319

and it should install your 32-bit application just fine.

CSS text-align not working

You have to make the UL inside the div behave like a block. Try adding

.navigation ul {
     display: inline-block;
}

How does jQuery work when there are multiple elements with the same ID value?

Having 2 elements with the same ID is not valid html according to the W3C specification.

When your CSS selector only has an ID selector (and is not used on a specific context), jQuery uses the native document.getElementById method, which returns only the first element with that ID.

However, in the other two instances, jQuery relies on the Sizzle selector engine (or querySelectorAll, if available), which apparently selects both elements. Results may vary on a per browser basis.

However, you should never have two elements on the same page with the same ID. If you need it for your CSS, use a class instead.

If you absolutely must select by duplicate ID, use an attribute selector:

$('[id="a"]');

Take a look at the fiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/P2j3f/2/

Note: if possible, you should qualify that selector with a tag selector, like this:

$('span[id="a"]');

how to set mongod --dbpath

You could also configure mongod to run on start up so that it is automatically running on start up and the dbpath is set upon configuration. To do this try:

mongod --smallfiles --config /etc/mongod.conf

The --smallfiles tag is there in case you get an error with size. It is, of course, optional. Doing this should solve your problem while also automating your mongodb setup.

Printing object properties in Powershell

Some general notes.

`$obj | Select-Object` ? `$obj | Select-Object -Property *`

The latter will show all non-intrinsic, non-compiler-generated properties. The former does not appear to (always) show all Property types (in my tests, it does appear to show the CodeProperty MemberType consistently though -- no guarantees here).

Some switches to be aware of for Get-Member

Get-Member does not get static members by default. You also cannot (directly) get them along with the non-static members. That is, using the switch causes only static members to be returned:

PS Y:\Power> $obj | Get-Member -Static

   TypeName: System.IsFire.TurnUpProtocol

Name        MemberType Definition
----        ---------- ----------
Equals      Method     static bool Equals(System.Object objA, System.Object objB)
...

Use the -Force.

The Get-Member command uses the Force parameter to add the intrinsic members and compiler-generated members of the objects to the display. Get-Member gets these members, but it hides them by default.

PS Y:\Power> $obj | Get-Member -Static

   TypeName: System.IsFire.TurnUpProtocol

Name          MemberType     Definition
----          ----------     ----------
...
pstypenames   CodeProperty   System.Collections.ObjectModel.Collection...
psadapted     MemberSet      psadapted {AccessRightType, AccessRuleType,...
...

Use `ConvertTo-Json` for depth and readable "serialization"

I do not necessary recommend saving objects using JSON (use Export-Clixml instead). However, you can get a more or less readable output from ConvertTo-Json, which also allows you to specify depth.

Note that not specifying Depth implies -Depth 2

PS Y:\Power> ConvertTo-Json $obj -Depth 1
{
    "AllowSystemOverload":  true,
    "AllowLifeToGetInTheWay":  false,
    "CantAnyMore": true,
    "LastResortOnly": true,
...

And if you aren't planning to read it you can -Compress it (i.e. strip whitespace)

PS Y:\Power> ConvertTo-Json $obj -Depth 420 -Compress

Use `-InputObject` if you can (and are willing)

99.9% of the time when using PowerShell: either the performance won't matter, or you don't care about the performance. However, it should be noted that avoiding the pipe when you don't need it can save some overhead and add some speed (piping, in general, is not super-efficient).

That is, if you all you have is a single $obj handy for printing (and aren't too lazy like me sometimes to type out -InputObject):

# select is aliased (hardcoded) to Select-Object
PS Y:\Power> select -Property * -InputObject $obj

# gm is aliased (hardcoded) to Get-Member
PS Y:\Power> gm -Force -InputObject $obj

Caveat for Get-Member -InputObject: If $obj is a collection (e.g. System.Object[]), You end up getting information about the collection object itself:

PS Y:\Power> gm -InputObject $obj,$obj2
   TypeName: System.Object[]

Name        MemberType            Definition
----        ----------            ----------
Count       AliasProperty         Count = Length
...

If you want to Get-Member for each TypeName in the collection (N.B. for each TypeName, not for each object--a collection of N objects with all the same TypeName will only print 1 table for that TypeName, not N tables for each object)......just stick with piping it in directly.

How to turn a string formula into a "real" formula

UPDATE This used to work (in 2007, I believe), but does not in Excel 2013.

EXCEL 2013:

This isn't quite the same, but if it's possible to put 0.4 in one cell (B1, say), and the text value A1 in another cell (C1, say), in cell D1, you can use =B1*INDIRECT(C1), which results in the calculation of 0.4 * A1's value.

So, if A1 = 10, you'd get 0.4*10 = 4 in cell D1. I'll update again if I can find a better 2013 solution, and sorry the Microsoft destroyed the original functionality of INDIRECT!

EXCEL 2007 version:

For a non-VBA solution, use the INDIRECT formula. It takes a string as an argument and converts it to a cell reference.

For example, =0.4*INDIRECT("A1") will return the value of 0.4 * the value that's in cell A1 of that worksheet.

If cell A1 was, say, 10, then =0.4*INDIRECT("A1") would return 4.

Error: invalid operands of types ‘const char [35]’ and ‘const char [2]’ to binary ‘operator+’

You cannot concatenate raw strings like this. operator+ only works with two std::string objects or with one std::string and one raw string (on either side of the operation).

std::string s("...");
s + s; // OK
s + "x"; // OK
"x" + s; // OK
"x" + "x" // error

The easiest solution is to turn your raw string into a std::string first:

"Do you feel " + std::string(AGE) + " years old?";

Of course, you should not use a macro in the first place. C++ is not C. Use const or, in C++11 with proper compiler support, constexpr.

Why, Fatal error: Class 'PHPUnit_Framework_TestCase' not found in ...?

I was running PHPUnit tests on PHP5, and then, I needed to support PHP7 as well. This is what I did:

In composer.json:

"phpunit/phpunit": "~4.8|~5.7"

In my PHPUnit bootstrap file (in my case, /tests/bootstrap.php):

// PHPUnit 6 introduced a breaking change that
// removed PHPUnit_Framework_TestCase as a base class,
// and replaced it with \PHPUnit\Framework\TestCase
if (!class_exists('\PHPUnit_Framework_TestCase') && class_exists('\PHPUnit\Framework\TestCase'))
    class_alias('\PHPUnit\Framework\TestCase', '\PHPUnit_Framework_TestCase');

In other words, this will work for tests written originally for PHPUnit 4 or 5, but then needed to work on PHPUnit 6 as well.

How to pass payload via JSON file for curl?

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

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

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

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

Error: could not find function "%>%"

You need to load a package (like magrittr or dplyr) that defines the function first, then it should work.

install.packages("magrittr") # package installations are only needed the first time you use it
install.packages("dplyr")    # alternative installation of the %>%
library(magrittr) # needs to be run every time you start R and want to use %>%
library(dplyr)    # alternatively, this also loads %>%

The pipe operator %>% was introduced to "decrease development time and to improve readability and maintainability of code."

But everybody has to decide for himself if it really fits his workflow and makes things easier. For more information on magrittr, click here.

Not using the pipe %>%, this code would return the same as your code:

words <- colnames(as.matrix(dtm))
words <- words[nchar(words) < 20]
words

EDIT: (I am extending my answer due to a very useful comment that was made by @Molx)

Despite being from magrittr, the pipe operator is more commonly used with the package dplyr (which requires and loads magrittr), so whenever you see someone using %>% make sure you shouldn't load dplyr instead.

Proper way to wait for one function to finish before continuing?

One way to deal with asynchronous work like this is to use a callback function, eg:

function firstFunction(_callback){
    // do some asynchronous work
    // and when the asynchronous stuff is complete
    _callback();    
}

function secondFunction(){
    // call first function and pass in a callback function which
    // first function runs when it has completed
    firstFunction(function() {
        console.log('huzzah, I\'m done!');
    });    
}

As per @Janaka Pushpakumara's suggestion, you can now use arrow functions to achieve the same thing. For example:

firstFunction(() => console.log('huzzah, I\'m done!'))

Update: I answered this quite some time ago, and really want to update it. While callbacks are absolutely fine, in my experience they tend to result in code that is more difficult to read and maintain. There are situations where I still use them though, such as to pass in progress events and the like as parameters. This update is just to emphasise alternatives.

Also the original question doesn't specificallty mention async, so in case anyone is confused, if your function is synchronous, it will block when called. For example:

doSomething()
// the function below will wait until doSomething completes if it is synchronous
doSomethingElse()

If though as implied the function is asynchronous, the way I tend to deal with all my asynchronous work today is with async/await. For example:

const secondFunction = async () => {
  const result = await firstFunction()
  // do something else here after firstFunction completes
}

IMO, async/await makes your code much more readable than using promises directly (most of the time). If you need to handle catching errors then use it with try/catch. Read about it more here: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Statements/async_function .

Detect Close windows event by jQuery

Combine the mousemove and window.onbeforeunload event :- I used for set TimeOut for Audit Table.

 $(document).ready(function () {
 var checkCloseX = 0;
        $(document).mousemove(function (e) {
            if (e.pageY <= 5) {
                checkCloseX = 1;
            }
            else { checkCloseX = 0; }
        });

        window.onbeforeunload = function (event) {
            if (event) {
                if (checkCloseX == 1) {

                    //alert('1111');
                    $.ajax({
                        type: "GET",
                        url: "Account/SetAuditHeaderTimeOut",
                        dataType: "json",
                        success: function (result) {
                            if (result != null) {
                            }
                        }
                    });
                }
            }
        };
  });

Why do I get an UnsupportedOperationException when trying to remove an element from a List?

I think that replacing:

List<String> list = Arrays.asList(split);

with

List<String> list = new ArrayList<String>(Arrays.asList(split));

resolves the problem.

Mockito : doAnswer Vs thenReturn

You should use thenReturn or doReturn when you know the return value at the time you mock a method call. This defined value is returned when you invoke the mocked method.

thenReturn(T value) Sets a return value to be returned when the method is called.

@Test
public void test_return() throws Exception {
    Dummy dummy = mock(Dummy.class);
    int returnValue = 5;

    // choose your preferred way
    when(dummy.stringLength("dummy")).thenReturn(returnValue);
    doReturn(returnValue).when(dummy).stringLength("dummy");
}

Answer is used when you need to do additional actions when a mocked method is invoked, e.g. when you need to compute the return value based on the parameters of this method call.

Use doAnswer() when you want to stub a void method with generic Answer.

Answer specifies an action that is executed and a return value that is returned when you interact with the mock.

@Test
public void test_answer() throws Exception {
    Dummy dummy = mock(Dummy.class);
    Answer<Integer> answer = new Answer<Integer>() {
        public Integer answer(InvocationOnMock invocation) throws Throwable {
            String string = invocation.getArgumentAt(0, String.class);
            return string.length() * 2;
        }
    };

    // choose your preferred way
    when(dummy.stringLength("dummy")).thenAnswer(answer);
    doAnswer(answer).when(dummy).stringLength("dummy");
}

surface plots in matplotlib

In Matlab I did something similar using the delaunay function on the x, y coords only (not the z), then plotting with trimesh or trisurf, using z as the height.

SciPy has the Delaunay class, which is based on the same underlying QHull library that the Matlab's delaunay function is, so you should get identical results.

From there, it should be a few lines of code to convert this Plotting 3D Polygons in python-matplotlib example into what you wish to achieve, as Delaunay gives you the specification of each triangular polygon.

twig: IF with multiple conditions

If I recall correctly Twig doesn't support || and && operators, but requires or and and to be used respectively. I'd also use parentheses to denote the two statements more clearly although this isn't technically a requirement.

{%if ( fields | length > 0 ) or ( trans_fields | length > 0 ) %}

Expressions

Expressions can be used in {% blocks %} and ${ expressions }.

Operator    Description
==          Does the left expression equal the right expression?
+           Convert both arguments into a number and add them.
-           Convert both arguments into a number and substract them.
*           Convert both arguments into a number and multiply them.
/           Convert both arguments into a number and divide them.
%           Convert both arguments into a number and calculate the rest of the integer division.
~           Convert both arguments into a string and concatenate them.
or          True if the left or the right expression is true.
and         True if the left and the right expression is true.
not         Negate the expression.

For more complex operations, it may be best to wrap individual expressions in parentheses to avoid confusion:

{% if (foo and bar) or (fizz and (foo + bar == 3)) %}

react change class name on state change

Below is a fully functional example of what I believe you're trying to do (with a functional snippet).

Explanation

Based on your question, you seem to be modifying 1 property in state for all of your elements. That's why when you click on one, all of them are being changed.

In particular, notice that the state tracks an index of which element is active. When MyClickable is clicked, it tells the Container its index, Container updates the state, and subsequently the isActive property of the appropriate MyClickables.

Example

_x000D_

class Container extends React.Component {_x000D_
  state = {_x000D_
    activeIndex: null_x000D_
  }_x000D_
_x000D_
  handleClick = (index) => this.setState({ activeIndex: index })_x000D_
_x000D_
  render() {_x000D_
    return <div>_x000D_
      <MyClickable name="a" index={0} isActive={ this.state.activeIndex===0 } onClick={ this.handleClick } />_x000D_
      <MyClickable name="b" index={1} isActive={ this.state.activeIndex===1 } onClick={ this.handleClick }/>_x000D_
      <MyClickable name="c" index={2} isActive={ this.state.activeIndex===2 } onClick={ this.handleClick }/>_x000D_
    </div>_x000D_
  }_x000D_
}_x000D_
_x000D_
class MyClickable extends React.Component {_x000D_
  handleClick = () => this.props.onClick(this.props.index)_x000D_
  _x000D_
  render() {_x000D_
    return <button_x000D_
      type='button'_x000D_
      className={_x000D_
        this.props.isActive ? 'active' : 'album'_x000D_
      }_x000D_
      onClick={ this.handleClick }_x000D_
    >_x000D_
      <span>{ this.props.name }</span>_x000D_
    </button>_x000D_
  }_x000D_
}_x000D_
_x000D_
ReactDOM.render(<Container />, document.getElementById('app'))

_x000D_

button {_x000D_
  display: block;_x000D_
  margin-bottom: 1em;_x000D_
}_x000D_
_x000D_
.album>span:after {_x000D_
  content: ' (an album)';_x000D_
}_x000D_
_x000D_
.active {_x000D_
  font-weight: bold;_x000D_
}_x000D_
_x000D_
.active>span:after {_x000D_
  content: ' ACTIVE';_x000D_
}

_x000D_

<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/react/15.6.1/react.min.js"></script>_x000D_
<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/react/15.6.1/react-dom.min.js"></script>_x000D_
<div id="app"></div>

_x000D_

Update: "Loops"

In response to a comment about a "loop" version, I believe the question is about rendering an array of MyClickable elements. We won't use a loop, but map, which is typical in React + JSX. The following should give you the same result as above, but it works with an array of elements.

// New render method for `Container`
render() {
  const clickables = [
    { name: "a" },
    { name: "b" },
    { name: "c" },
  ]

  return <div>
      { clickables.map(function(clickable, i) {
          return <MyClickable key={ clickable.name }
            name={ clickable.name }
            index={ i }
            isActive={ this.state.activeIndex === i }
            onClick={ this.handleClick }
          />
        } )
      }
  </div>
}

Typescript - multidimensional array initialization

Here is an example of initializing a boolean[][]:

const n = 8; // or some dynamic value
const palindrome: boolean[][] = new Array(n)
                                   .fill(false)
                                   .map(() => new Array(n)
                                   .fill(false));

   success: function(msg){
     $('.answer').html(msg);
   }
});

Making Python loggers output all messages to stdout in addition to log file

I simplified my source code (whose original version is OOP and uses a configuration file), to give you an alternative solution to @EliasStrehle's one, without using the dictConfig (thus easiest to integrate with existing source code):

import logging
import sys


def create_stream_handler(stream, formatter, level, message_filter=None):
    handler = logging.StreamHandler(stream=stream)
    handler.setLevel(level)
    handler.setFormatter(formatter)
    if message_filter:
        handler.addFilter(message_filter)
    return handler


def configure_logger(logger: logging.Logger, enable_console: bool = True, enable_file: bool = True):
    if not logger.handlers:
        if enable_console:
            message_format: str = '{asctime:20} {name:16} {levelname:8} {message}'
            date_format: str = '%Y/%m/%d %H:%M:%S'
            level: int = logging.DEBUG
            formatter = logging.Formatter(message_format, date_format, '{')

            # Configures error output (from Warning levels).
            error_output_handler = create_stream_handler(sys.stderr, formatter,
                                                         max(level, logging.WARNING))
            logger.addHandler(error_output_handler)

            # Configures standard output (from configured Level, if lower than Warning,
            #  and excluding everything from Warning and higher).
            if level < logging.WARNING:
                standard_output_filter = lambda record: record.levelno < logging.WARNING
                standard_output_handler = create_stream_handler(sys.stdout, formatter, level,
                                                                standard_output_filter)
                logger.addHandler(standard_output_handler)

        if enable_file:
            message_format: str = '{asctime:20} {name:16} {levelname:8} {message}'
            date_format: str = '%Y/%m/%d %H:%M:%S'
            level: int = logging.DEBUG
            output_file: str = '/tmp/so_test.log'

            handler = logging.FileHandler(output_file)
            formatter = logging.Formatter(message_format, date_format, '{')
            handler.setLevel(level)
            handler.setFormatter(formatter)
            logger.addHandler(handler)

This is a very simple way to test it:

logger: logging.Logger = logging.getLogger('MyLogger')
logger.setLevel(logging.DEBUG)
configure_logger(logger, True, True)
logger.debug('Debug message ...')
logger.info('Info message ...')
logger.warning('Warning ...')
logger.error('Error ...')
logger.fatal('Fatal message ...')

How to add constraints programmatically using Swift

Would like to add some theoretical concept to Imanou Petit’s answer, so that one can understand how auto layout works.

To understand auto layout consider your view as rubber's object which is shrinked initially.

To place an object on screen we need 4 mandatory things :

X coordinate of object (horizontal position).
Y coordinate of object (vertical position )
Object’s Width
Object’s Height.

1 X coordinate: There are multiple ways of giving x coordinates to a view.

Such as Leading constraint, Trailing constraint , Horizontally centre etc.

2 Y coordinate: There are multiple ways of giving y coordinates to a view :

Such as Top constraint, Bottom constraint , Vertical centre etc.

3 Object's width: There are two ways of giving width constrain to a view :

a. Add fixed width constraint (consider this constraint as iron rod of fixed width and you have hooked your rubber’s object horizontally with it so rubber’s object don’t shrink or expand)

b. Do not add any width constraint but add x coordinate constraint to both end of view trailing and leading, these two constraints will expand/shrink your rubber’s object by pulling/pushing it from both end, leading and trailing.

4 Object's height: Similar to width, there are two ways of giving height constraint to a view as well :

a. Add fixed height constraint (consider this constraints as iron rod of fixed height and you have hooked your rubber’s object vertically with it so rubber’s object don’t shrink or expand)

b. Do not add any height constraint but add x coordinate constraint to both end of view top and bottom, these two constraints will expand/shrink your rubber’s object pulling/pushing it from both end, top and bottom.

Method List in Visual Studio Code

It is an extra part to the answer to this question here but I thought it might be useful. As many people mentioned, Visual Studio Code has the OUTLINE part which provides the ability to browse to different function and show them on the side.

I also wanted to add that if you check the follow cursor mark, it highlights that function name in the OUTLINE view, which is very helpful in browsing and seeing which function you are in.

How to check if an object is a certain type

Some more details in relation with the response from Cody Gray. As it took me some time to digest it I though it might be usefull to others.

First, some definitions:

There are TypeNames, which are string representations of the type of an object, interface, etc. For example, Bar is a TypeName in Public Class Bar, or in Dim Foo as Bar. TypeNames could be seen as "labels" used in the code to tell the compiler which type definition to look for in a dictionary where all available types would be described.
There are System.Type objects which contain a value. This value indicates a type; just like a String would take some text or an Int would take a number, except we are storing types instead of text or numbers. Type objects contain the type definitions, as well as its corresponding TypeName.

Second, the theory:

Foo.GetType() returns a Type object which contains the type for the variable Foo. In other words, it tells you what Foo is an instance of.
GetType(Bar) returns a Type object which contains the type for the TypeName Bar.
In some instances, the type an object has been Cast to is different from the type an object was first instantiated from. In the following example, MyObj is an Integer cast into an Object:

Dim MyVal As Integer = 42 Dim MyObj As Object = CType(MyVal, Object)

So, is MyObj of type Object or of type Integer? MyObj.GetType() will tell you it is an Integer.

But here comes the Type Of Foo Is Bar feature, which allows you to ascertain a variable Foo is compatible with a TypeName Bar. Type Of MyObj Is Integer and Type Of MyObj Is Object will both return True. For most cases, TypeOf will indicate a variable is compatible with a TypeName if the variable is of that Type or a Type that derives from it. More info here: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/visual-basic/language-reference/operators/typeof-operator#remarks

The test below illustrate quite well the behaviour and usage of each of the mentionned keywords and properties.

Public Sub TestMethod1()

    Dim MyValInt As Integer = 42
    Dim MyValDble As Double = CType(MyValInt, Double)
    Dim MyObj As Object = CType(MyValDble, Object)

    Debug.Print(MyValInt.GetType.ToString) 'Returns System.Int32
    Debug.Print(MyValDble.GetType.ToString) 'Returns System.Double
    Debug.Print(MyObj.GetType.ToString) 'Returns System.Double

    Debug.Print(MyValInt.GetType.GetType.ToString) 'Returns System.RuntimeType
    Debug.Print(MyValDble.GetType.GetType.ToString) 'Returns System.RuntimeType
    Debug.Print(MyObj.GetType.GetType.ToString) 'Returns System.RuntimeType

    Debug.Print(GetType(Integer).GetType.ToString) 'Returns System.RuntimeType
    Debug.Print(GetType(Double).GetType.ToString) 'Returns System.RuntimeType
    Debug.Print(GetType(Object).GetType.ToString) 'Returns System.RuntimeType

    Debug.Print(MyValInt.GetType = GetType(Integer)) '# Returns True
    Debug.Print(MyValInt.GetType = GetType(Double)) 'Returns False
    Debug.Print(MyValInt.GetType = GetType(Object)) 'Returns False

    Debug.Print(MyValDble.GetType = GetType(Integer)) 'Returns False
    Debug.Print(MyValDble.GetType = GetType(Double)) '# Returns True
    Debug.Print(MyValDble.GetType = GetType(Object)) 'Returns False

    Debug.Print(MyObj.GetType = GetType(Integer)) 'Returns False
    Debug.Print(MyObj.GetType = GetType(Double)) '# Returns True
    Debug.Print(MyObj.GetType = GetType(Object)) 'Returns False

    Debug.Print(TypeOf MyObj Is Integer) 'Returns False
    Debug.Print(TypeOf MyObj Is Double) '# Returns True
    Debug.Print(TypeOf MyObj Is Object) '# Returns True


End Sub

EDIT

You can also use Information.TypeName(Object) to get the TypeName of a given object. For example,

Dim Foo as Bar
Dim Result as String
Result = TypeName(Foo)
Debug.Print(Result) 'Will display "Bar"

How can I generate an HTML report for Junit results?

You can easily do this via ant. Here is a build.xml file for doing this

 <project name="genTestReport" default="gen" basedir=".">
        <description>
                Generate the HTML report from JUnit XML files
        </description>

        <target name="gen">
                <property name="genReportDir" location="${basedir}/unitTestReports"/>
                <delete dir="${genReportDir}"/>
                <mkdir dir="${genReportDir}"/>
                <junitreport todir="${basedir}/unitTestReports">
                        <fileset dir="${basedir}">
                                <include name="**/TEST-*.xml"/>
                        </fileset>
                        <report format="frames" todir="${genReportDir}/html"/>
                </junitreport>
        </target>
</project>

This will find files with the format TEST-*.xml and generate reports into a folder named unitTestReports.

To run this (assuming the above file is called buildTestReports.xml) run the following command in the terminal:

ant -buildfile buildTestReports.xml

Simplest way to merge ES6 Maps/Sets?

For reasons I do not understand, you cannot directly add the contents of one Set to another with a built-in operation. Operations like union, intersect, merge, etc... are pretty basic set operations, but are not built-in. Fortunately, you can construct these all yourself fairly easily.

So, to implement a merge operation (merging the contents of one Set into another or one Map into another), you can do this with a single .forEach() line:

var s = new Set([1,2,3]);
var t = new Set([4,5,6]);

t.forEach(s.add, s);
console.log(s);   // 1,2,3,4,5,6

And, for a Map, you could do this:

var s = new Map([["key1", 1], ["key2", 2]]);
var t = new Map([["key3", 3], ["key4", 4]]);

t.forEach(function(value, key) {
    s.set(key, value);
});

Or, in ES6 syntax:

t.forEach((value, key) => s.set(key, value));

FYI, if you want a simple subclass of the built-in Set object that contains a .merge() method, you can use this:

// subclass of Set that adds new methods
// Except where otherwise noted, arguments to methods
//   can be a Set, anything derived from it or an Array
// Any method that returns a new Set returns whatever class the this object is
//   allowing SetEx to be subclassed and these methods will return that subclass
//   For this to work properly, subclasses must not change behavior of SetEx methods
//
// Note that if the contructor for SetEx is passed one or more iterables, 
// it will iterate them and add the individual elements of those iterables to the Set
// If you want a Set itself added to the Set, then use the .add() method
// which remains unchanged from the original Set object.  This way you have
// a choice about how you want to add things and can do it either way.

class SetEx extends Set {
    // create a new SetEx populated with the contents of one or more iterables
    constructor(...iterables) {
        super();
        this.merge(...iterables);
    }

    // merge the items from one or more iterables into this set
    merge(...iterables) {
        for (let iterable of iterables) {
            for (let item of iterable) {
                this.add(item);
            }
        }
        return this;        
    }

    // return new SetEx object that is union of all sets passed in with the current set
    union(...sets) {
        let newSet = new this.constructor(...sets);
        newSet.merge(this);
        return newSet;
    }

    // return a new SetEx that contains the items that are in both sets
    intersect(target) {
        let newSet = new this.constructor();
        for (let item of this) {
            if (target.has(item)) {
                newSet.add(item);
            }
        }
        return newSet;        
    }

    // return a new SetEx that contains the items that are in this set, but not in target
    // target must be a Set (or something that supports .has(item) such as a Map)
    diff(target) {
        let newSet = new this.constructor();
        for (let item of this) {
            if (!target.has(item)) {
                newSet.add(item);
            }
        }
        return newSet;        
    }

    // target can be either a Set or an Array
    // return boolean which indicates if target set contains exactly same elements as this
    // target elements are iterated and checked for this.has(item)
    sameItems(target) {
        let tsize;
        if ("size" in target) {
            tsize = target.size;
        } else if ("length" in target) {
            tsize = target.length;
        } else {
            throw new TypeError("target must be an iterable like a Set with .size or .length");
        }
        if (tsize !== this.size) {
            return false;
        }
        for (let item of target) {
            if (!this.has(item)) {
                return false;
            }
        }
        return true;
    }
}

module.exports = SetEx;

This is meant to be in it's own file setex.js that you can then require() into node.js and use in place of the built-in Set.

Grep to find item in Perl array

You seem to be using grep() like the Unix grep utility, which is wrong.

Perl's grep() in scalar context evaluates the expression for each element of a list and returns the number of times the expression was true. So when $match contains any "true" value, grep($match, @array) in scalar context will always return the number of elements in @array.

Instead, try using the pattern matching operator:

if (grep /$match/, @array) {
    print "found it\n";
}

How to get height of <div> in px dimension

Although they vary slightly as to how they retrieve a height value, i.e some would calculate the whole element including padding, margin, scrollbar, etc and others would just calculate the element in its raw form.
You can try these ones:

javascript:

var myDiv = document.getElementById("myDiv");
myDiv.clientHeight;
myDiv.scrollHeight;
myDiv.offsetHeight;

or in jquery:

$("#myDiv").height();
$("#myDiv").innerHeight();
$("#myDiv").outerHeight();

How to remove an appended element with Jquery and why bind or live is causing elements to repeat

If I understand your question correctly, I've made a fiddle that has this working correctly. This issue is with how you're assigning the event handlers and as others have said you have over riding event handlers. The current jQuery best practice is to use on() to register event handlers. Here's a link to the jQuery docs about on: link

Your original solution was pretty close but the way you added the event handlers is a bit confusing. It's considered best practice to not add events to HTML elements. I recommend reading up on Unobstrusive JavaScript.

Here's the JavaScript code. I added a counter variable so you can see that it is working correctly.

$('#answer').on('click', function() {
  feedback('hey there');
});

var counter = 0;

function feedback(message) {

  $('#feedback').remove();

  $('.answers').append('<div id="feedback">' + message + ' ' + counter + '</div>');

  counter++;    
}

What does it mean to "call" a function in Python?

when you invoke a function , it is termed 'calling' a function . For eg , suppose you've defined a function that finds the average of two numbers like this-

def avgg(a,b) :
        return (a+b)/2;

now, to call the function , you do like this .

x=avgg(4,6)
print x

value of x will be 5 .

Check if one date is between two dates

Try what's below. It will help you...

Fiddle : http://jsfiddle.net/RYh7U/146/

    alert("Availed");
else
    alert("Not Availed");

function dateCheck(from,to,check) {

    var fDate,lDate,cDate;
    fDate = Date.parse(from);
    lDate = Date.parse(to);
    cDate = Date.parse(check);

    if((cDate <= lDate && cDate >= fDate)) {
        return true;
    }
    return false;

and you could also write those like that:

private static int id = 0;
private static double annualInterestRate = 0;

Remove composer

During the installation you got a message Composer successfully installed to: ... this indicates where Composer was installed. But you might also search for the file composer.phar on your system.

Then simply:

Delete the file composer.phar.
Delete the Cache Folder:

- Windows: C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\Composer

That's it.

What is the "realm" in basic authentication

From RFC 1945 (HTTP/1.0) and RFC 2617 (HTTP Authentication referenced by HTTP/1.1)

The realm attribute (case-insensitive) is required for all authentication schemes which issue a challenge. The realm value (case-sensitive), in combination with the canonical root URL of the server being accessed, defines the protection space. These realms allow the protected resources on a server to be partitioned into a set of protection spaces, each with its own authentication scheme and/or authorization database. The realm value is a string, generally assigned by the origin server, which may have additional semantics specific to the authentication scheme.

In short, pages in the same realm should share credentials. If your credentials work for a page with the realm "My Realm", it should be assumed that the same username and password combination should work for another page with the same realm.

What version of Java is running in Eclipse?

Under the help menu, there should be a menu item labeled "About Eclipse" I can't say with absolute precision because I'm using STS which is the same thing but my label is different.

In the dialog box that opens after you click the relevant about menu item there should be an installation details button in the lower left hand corner.

The version of Java that you're running Eclipse against ought to be in "System properties:" under the "Configuration" tab.

BigDecimal equals() versus compareTo()

The answer is in the JavaDoc of the equals() method:

Unlike compareTo, this method considers two BigDecimal objects equal only if they are equal in value and scale (thus 2.0 is not equal to 2.00 when compared by this method).

In other words: equals() checks if the BigDecimal objects are exactly the same in every aspect. compareTo() "only" compares their numeric value.

As to why equals() behaves this way, this has been answered in this SO question.

Checking if type == list in python

You should try using isinstance()

if isinstance(object, list):
       ## DO what you want

In your case

if isinstance(tmpDict[key], list):
      ## DO SOMETHING

To elaborate:

x = [1,2,3]
if type(x) == list():
    print "This wont work"
if type(x) == list:                  ## one of the way to see if it's list
    print "this will work"           
if type(x) == type(list()):
    print "lets see if this works"
if isinstance(x, list):              ## most preferred way to check if it's list
    print "This should work just fine"

The difference between isinstance() and type() though both seems to do the same job is that isinstance() checks for subclasses in addition, while type() doesn’t.

How to Check whether Session is Expired or not in asp.net

I use the @Adi-lester answer and add some methods.

Method to verify if Session is Alive

public static void SessionIsAlive(HttpSessionStateBase Session)
{
    if (Session.Contents.Count == 0)
    {
        Response.Redirect("Timeout.html"); 
    }
    else
    {
        InitializeControls();
    }
}

Create session var in Page Load

protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    Session["user_id"] = 1;
}

Create SaveData method (but you can use it in all methods)

protected void SaveData()
{
    // Verify if Session is Alive
    SessionIsAlive(Session);

    //Save Data Process
    // bla
    // bla
    // bla
}

What is a 'workspace' in Visual Studio Code?

Although the question is asking "what is a workspace?", I feel that the source of confusion is the expectation that workspaces should behave more like "projects" in other editors.

Transitions on the CSS display property

I've came across this issue multiple times and now simply went with:

.block {
  opacity: 1;
  transition: opacity 250ms ease;
}

.block--invisible {
  pointer-events: none;
  opacity: 0;
}

By adding the class block--invisible the whole Elements will not be clickable but all Elements behind it will be because of the pointer-events:none which is supported by all major browsers (no IE < 11).

Best way to replace multiple characters in a string?

FYI, this is of little or no use to the OP but it may be of use to other readers (please do not downvote, I'm aware of this).

As a somewhat ridiculous but interesting exercise, wanted to see if I could use python functional programming to replace multiple chars. I'm pretty sure this does NOT beat just calling replace() twice. And if performance was an issue, you could easily beat this in rust, C, julia, perl, java, javascript and maybe even awk. It uses an external 'helpers' package called pytoolz, accelerated via cython (cytoolz, it's a pypi package).

from cytoolz.functoolz import compose
from cytoolz.itertoolz import chain,sliding_window
from itertools import starmap,imap,ifilter
from operator import itemgetter,contains
text='&hello#hi&yo&'
char_index_iter=compose(partial(imap, itemgetter(0)), partial(ifilter, compose(partial(contains, '#&'), itemgetter(1))), enumerate)
print '\\'.join(imap(text.__getitem__, starmap(slice, sliding_window(2, chain((0,), char_index_iter(text), (len(text),))))))

I'm not even going to explain this because no one would bother using this to accomplish multiple replace. Nevertheless, I felt somewhat accomplished in doing this and thought it might inspire other readers or win a code obfuscation contest.

MySQL and GROUP_CONCAT() maximum length

The correct syntax is mysql> SET @@global.group_concat_max_len = integer;
If you do not have the privileges to do this on the server where your database resides then use a query like:
mySQL="SET @@session.group_concat_max_len = 10000;"or a different value.
Next line:
SET objRS = objConn.Execute(mySQL) your variables may be different.
then
mySQL="SELECT GROUP_CONCAT(......);" etc
I use the last version since I do not have the privileges to change the default value of 1024 globally (using cPanel).
Hope this helps.

Performing Breadth First Search recursively

C# implementation of recursive breadth-first search algorithm for a binary tree.

Binary tree data visualization

IDictionary<string, string[]> graph = new Dictionary<string, string[]> {
    {"A", new [] {"B", "C"}},
    {"B", new [] {"D", "E"}},
    {"C", new [] {"F", "G"}},
    {"E", new [] {"H"}}
};

void Main()
{
    var pathFound = BreadthFirstSearch("A", "H", new string[0]);
    Console.WriteLine(pathFound); // [A, B, E, H]

    var pathNotFound = BreadthFirstSearch("A", "Z", new string[0]);
    Console.WriteLine(pathNotFound); // []
}

IEnumerable<string> BreadthFirstSearch(string start, string end, IEnumerable<string> path)
{
    if (start == end)
    {
        return path.Concat(new[] { end });
    }

    if (!graph.ContainsKey(start)) { return new string[0]; }    

    return graph[start].SelectMany(letter => BreadthFirstSearch(letter, end, path.Concat(new[] { start })));
}

If you want algorithm to work not only with binary-tree but with graphs what can have two and more nodes that points to same another node you must to avoid self-cycling by holding list of already visited nodes. Implementation may be looks like this.

EDIT

I changed you worksheet to play with (see above for the new Sub). This probably does not suite your needs directly, but hopefully it will demonstrate the conept behind what I think you want to do. Please keep in mind that this code does not follow all the coding best preactices I would recommend (e.g. validating the time is actually a TIME and not some random other data type).

     A                      B                   C                   D                  E
1    LOAD_NUMBER            1                   2                   3                  4
2    DEPARTURE_TIME_DATE    11/12/2011 19:30    11/12/2011 19:30    11/12/2011 19:30    11/12/2011 20:00                
4    Dry_Refrig 7585.1  0   10099.8 16700

Using the sub I got this output:

    A           B             C             D             E

How to set conditional breakpoints in Visual Studio?

Just another way of doing it, (or if you are using express) add the condition in code:

Copy the entire contents of a directory in C#

Hmm, I think I misunderstand the question but I'm going to risk it. What's wrong with the following straightforward method?

public static void CopyFilesRecursively(DirectoryInfo source, DirectoryInfo target) {
    foreach (DirectoryInfo dir in source.GetDirectories())
        CopyFilesRecursively(dir, target.CreateSubdirectory(dir.Name));
    foreach (FileInfo file in source.GetFiles())
        file.CopyTo(Path.Combine(target.FullName, file.Name));
}

EDIT Since this posting has garnered an impressive number of downvotes for such a simple answer to an equally simple question, let me add an explanation. Please read this before downvoting.

First of all, this code is not intendend as a drop-in replacement to the code in the question. It is for illustration purpose only.

Microsoft.VisualBasic.Devices.Computer.FileSystem.CopyDirectory does some additional correctness tests (e.g. whether the source and target are valid directories, whether the source is a parent of the target etc.) that are missing from this answer. That code is probably also more optimized.

That said, the code works well. It has (almost identically) been used in a mature software for years. Apart from the inherent fickleness present with all IO handlings (e.g. what happens if the user manually unplugs the USB drive while your code is writing to it?), there are no known problems.

In particular, I’d like to point out that the use of recursion here is absolutely not a problem. Neither in theory (conceptually, it’s the most elegant solution) nor in practice: this code will not overflow the stack. The stack is large enough to handle even deeply nested file hierarchies. Long before stack space becomes a problem, the folder path length limitation kicks in.

Notice that a malicious user might be able to break this assumption by using deeply-nested directories of one letter each. I haven’t tried this. But just to illustrate the point: in order to make this code overflow on a typical computer, the directories would have to be nested a few thousand times. This is simply not a realistic scenario.

How to have git log show filenames like svn log -v

If you want to get the file names only without the rest of the commit message you can use:

git log --name-only --pretty=format: <branch name>

This can then be extended to use the various options that contain the file name:

git log --name-status --pretty=format: <branch name>

git log --stat --pretty=format: <branch name>

One thing to note when using this method is that there are some blank lines in the output that will have to be ignored. Using this can be useful if you'd like to see the files that have been changed on a local branch, but is not yet pushed to a remote branch and there is no guarantee the latest from the remote has already been pulled in. For example:

git log --name-only --pretty=format: my_local_branch --not origin/master

Would show all the files that have been changed on the local branch, but not yet merged to the master branch on the remote.

Javascript array value is undefined ... how do I test for that

try: typeof(predQuery[preId])=='undefined'
or more generally: typeof(yourArray[yourIndex])=='undefined'
You're comparing "undefined" to undefined, which returns false =)

Java: Integer equals vs. ==

"==" always compare the memory location or object references of the values. equals method always compare the values. But equals also indirectly uses the "==" operator to compare the values.

Integer uses Integer cache to store the values from -128 to +127. If == operator is used to check for any values between -128 to 127 then it returns true. for other than these values it returns false .

Convert a JSON Object to Buffer and Buffer to JSON Object back

You need to stringify the json, not calling toString

var buf = Buffer.from(JSON.stringify(obj));

And for converting string to json obj :

var temp = JSON.parse(buf.toString());

Closing a file after File.Create

File.Create(string) returns an instance of the FileStream class. You can call the Stream.Close() method on this object in order to close it and release resources that it's using:

var myFile = File.Create(myPath);
myFile.Close();

However, since FileStream implements IDisposable, you can take advantage of the using statement (generally the preferred way of handling a situation like this). This will ensure that the stream is closed and disposed of properly when you're done with it:

using (var myFile = File.Create(myPath))
{
   // interact with myFile here, it will be disposed automatically
}
