PHP memcached Fatal error: Class 'Memcache' not found

I found solution in this post: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/11883378/class-memcache-not-found-php#=

I found the working dll files for PHP 5.4.4

I don't knowhow stable they are but they work for sure. Credits goes to this link.

http://x32.elijst.nl/php_memcache-5.4-nts-vc9-x86.zip

http://x32.elijst.nl/php_memcache-5.4-vc9-x86.zip

It is the 2.2.5.0 version, I noticed after compiling it (for PHP 5.4.4).

Please note that it is not 2.2.6 but works. I also mirrored them in my own FTP. Mirror links:

When should I use Memcache instead of Memcached?

This is 2013. Forget about the 2009 comments. Likewise, if you are running serious traffic loads, do not even contemplate how to make-do with a windows based memcache. When dealing with a very large scale (500+ front end web servers) and 20+ back end database servers and replicants (mysql & mssql mix), a farm of memcached servers (12 servers in group) supports multiple high volume OLTP applications answering 25K ~ 40K mc->get calls per-second. These calls are those that do NOT have to reach a database.

IMHO, this use of memcached provided SERIOUS $$$,$$$savings on CAPEX for new DB servers & licences as well as on support contracts for large commercial designs.

IE11 prevents ActiveX from running

Try this tag on the pages that use the ActiveX control:

<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=EmulateIE10">

Note: this has to be the very first element in the <head> section.

How to restrict user to type 10 digit numbers in input element?

Well I have successfully created my own working answer.

<input type="text" id="phone" name="phone" onkeypress="phoneno()" maxlength="10">

as well as

    <script>        
           function phoneno(){          
            $('#phone').keypress(function(e) {
                var a = [];
                var k = e.which;

                for (i = 48; i < 58; i++)
                    a.push(i);

                if (!(a.indexOf(k)>=0))
                    e.preventDefault();
            });
        }
       </script>

How to detect chrome and safari browser (webkit)

I am trying to detect the chrome and safari browser using jquery or javascript.

Use jQuery.browser

I thought we are not supposed to use jQuery.browser.

That's because detecting browsers is a bad idea. It is still the best way to detect the browser (when jQuery is involved) if you really intend to do that.

How to disable a link using only CSS?

MIN and MAX in C

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

Solution

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

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


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

Usage

MAX(int, 2, 3)

Explanation

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

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

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

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

Rationale

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

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

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

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

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

Examples

#include <stdio.h>

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

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


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

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

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

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

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

Java ArrayList for integers

Actually what u did is also not wrong your declaration is right . With your declaration JVM will create a ArrayList of integer arrays i.e each entry in arraylist correspond to an integer array hence your add function should pass a integer array as a parameter.

For Ex:

list.add(new Integer[3]);

In this way first entry of ArrayList is an integer array which can hold at max 3 values.

How to set background color in jquery

Try this for multiple CSS styles:

$(this).css({
    "background-color": 'red',
    "color" : "white"
});

MySQL - Rows to Columns

Another option,especially useful if you have many items you need to pivot is to let mysql build the query for you:

SELECT
  GROUP_CONCAT(DISTINCT
    CONCAT(
      'ifnull(SUM(case when itemname = ''',
      itemname,
      ''' then itemvalue end),0) AS `',
      itemname, '`'
    )
  ) INTO @sql
FROM
  history;
SET @sql = CONCAT('SELECT hostid, ', @sql, ' 
                  FROM history 
                   GROUP BY hostid');

PREPARE stmt FROM @sql;
EXECUTE stmt;
DEALLOCATE PREPARE stmt;

FIDDLE Added some extra values to see it working

GROUP_CONCAT has a default value of 1000 so if you have a really big query change this parameter before running it

SET SESSION group_concat_max_len = 1000000;

Test:

DROP TABLE IF EXISTS history;
CREATE TABLE history
(hostid INT,
itemname VARCHAR(5),
itemvalue INT);

INSERT INTO history VALUES(1,'A',10),(1,'B',3),(2,'A',9),
(2,'C',40),(2,'D',5),
(3,'A',14),(3,'B',67),(3,'D',8);

  hostid    A     B     C      D
    1     10      3     0      0
    2     9       0    40      5
    3     14     67     0      8

Check if not nil and not empty in Rails shortcut?

You can use .present? which comes included with ActiveSupport.

@city = @user.city.present?
# etc ...

You could even write it like this

def show
  %w(city state bio contact twitter mail).each do |attr|
    instance_variable_set "@#{attr}", @user[attr].present?
  end
end

It's worth noting that if you want to test if something is blank, you can use .blank? (this is the opposite of .present?)

Also, don't use foo == nil. Use foo.nil? instead.

Plugin execution not covered by lifecycle configuration (JBossas 7 EAR archetype)

You need to understand the content in M2E_plugin_execution_not_covered and follow the steps mentioned below:

Pick org.eclipse.m2e.lifecyclemapping.defaults jar from the eclipse plugin folder
Extract it and open lifecycle-mapping-metadata.xml where you can find all the pluginExecutions.
Add the pluginExecutions of your plugins which are shown as errors with <ignore/> under <action> tags.

eg: for write-project-properties error, add this snippet under the <pluginExecutions> section of the lifecycle-mapping-metadata.xml file:

 <pluginExecution>
    <pluginExecutionFilter>
       <groupId>org.codehaus.mojo</groupId>
       <artifactId>properties-maven-plugin</artifactId>
       <versionRange>1.0-alpha-2</versionRange>
       <goals>
         <goal>write-project-properties</goal>
       </goals>
    </pluginExecutionFilter>
     <action>
       <ignore />
     </action>
   </pluginExecution>

Replace that XML file in the JAR
Replace the updated JAR in Eclipse's plugin folder
Restart Eclipse

You should see no errors in the future for any project.

The view or its master was not found or no view engine supports the searched locations

I got this error because I renamed my View (and POST action).

Finally I found that I forgot to rename BOTH GET and POST actions to new name.

Solution : Rename both GET and POST actions to match the View name.

Delete files in subfolder using batch script

Moved from the closed topic

del /s d:\test\archive*.txt

This should get you all of your text files

Alternatively,

I modified a script I already wrote to look for certain files to move them, this one should go and find files and delete them. It allows you to just choose to which folder by a selection screen.

Please test this on your system before using it though.

JUnit Testing Exceptions

@Test(expected = Exception.class)

Tells Junit that exception is the expected result so test will be passed (marked as green) when exception is thrown.

For

Junit will consider test as failed if exception is thrown, provided it's an unchecked exception. If the exception is checked it won't compile and you will need to use other methods. This link might help.

How to undo a git merge with conflicts

How to check if element in groovy array/hash/collection/list?

Some syntax sugar

1 in [1,2,3]

Detect whether a Python string is a number or a letter

For a string of length 1 you can simply perform isdigit() or isalpha()

If your string length is greater than 1, you can make a function something like..

def isinteger(a):
    try:
        int(a)
        return True
    except ValueError:
        return False

Run MySQLDump without Locking Tables

Due to https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.7/en/mysqldump.html#option_mysqldump_lock-tables :

Some options, such as --opt (which is enabled by default), automatically enable --lock-tables. If you want to override this, use --skip-lock-tables at the end of the option list.

Find if value in column A contains value from column B?

You could try this

=IF(ISNA(VLOOKUP(<single column I value>,<entire column E range>,1,FALSE)),FALSE, TRUE)

-or-

=IF(ISNA(VLOOKUP(<single column I value>,<entire column E range>,1,FALSE)),"FALSE", "File found in row "   & MATCH(<single column I value>,<entire column E range>,0))

you could replace <single column I value> and <entire column E range> with named ranged. That'd probably be the easiest.

Just drag that formula all the way down the length of your I column in whatever column you want.

How to open a new window on form submit

I generally use a small jQuery snippet globally to open any external links in a new tab / window. I've added the selector for a form for my own site and it works fine so far:

// URL target
    $('a[href*="//"]:not([href*="'+ location.hostname +'"]),form[action*="//"]:not([href*="'+ location.hostname +'"]').attr('target','_blank');

What does this symbol mean in IntelliJ? (red circle on bottom-left corner of file name, with 'J' in it)

mark the java folder as source root.It will solve.

Add an element to an array in Swift

You can also pass in a variable and/or object if you wanted to.

var str1:String = "John"
var str2:String = "Bob"

var myArray = ["Steve", "Bill", "Linus", "Bret"]

//add to the end of the array with append
myArray.append(str1)
myArray.append(str2)

To add them to the front:

//use 'insert' instead of append
myArray.insert(str1, atIndex:0)
myArray.insert(str2, atIndex:0)

//Swift 3
myArray.insert(str1, at: 0)
myArray.insert(str2, at: 0)

As others have already stated, you can no longer use '+=' as of xCode 6.1

HTML Mobile -forcing the soft keyboard to hide

Since the soft keyboard is part of the OS, more often than not, you won't be able to hide it - also, on iOS, hiding the keyboard drops focus from the element.

However, if you use the onFocus attribute on the input, and then blur() the text input immediately, the keyboard will hide itself and the onFocus event can set a variable to define which text input was focused last.

Then alter your on-page keyboard to only alter the last-focused (check using the variable) text input, rather than simulating a key press.

How to remove default chrome style for select Input?

When looking at an input with a type of number, you'll notice the spinner buttons (up/down) on the right-hand side of the input field. These spinners aren't always desirable, thus the code below removes such styling to render an input that resembles that of an input with a type of text.

input[type=number]::-webkit-inner-spin-button, 
input[type=number]::-webkit-outer-spin-button { 
  -webkit-appearance: none; 
}

Why can't I use a list as a dict key in python?

Your awnser can be found here:

Why Lists Can't Be Dictionary Keys

Newcomers to Python often wonder why, while the language includes both a tuple and a list type, tuples are usable as a dictionary keys, while lists are not. This was a deliberate design decision, and can best be explained by first understanding how Python dictionaries work.

What is the most efficient way to check if a value exists in a NumPy array?

The most obvious to me would be:

np.any(my_array[:, 0] == value)

javascript compare strings without being case sensitive

You can also use string.match().

var string1 = "aBc";
var match = string1.match(/AbC/i);

What is the definition of "interface" in object oriented programming

An interface defines what a class that inherits from it must implement. In this way, multiple classes can inherit from an interface, and because of that inherticance, you can

be sure that all members of the interface are implemented in the derived class (even if its just to throw an exception)
Abstract away the class itself from the caller (cast an instance of a class to the interface, and interact with it without needing to know what the actual derived class IS)

AngularJS Dropdown required validation

You need to add a name attribute to your dropdown list, then you need to add a required attribute, and then you can reference the error using myForm.[input name].$error.required:

HTML:

        <form name="myForm" ng-controller="Ctrl" ng-submit="save(myForm)" novalidate>
        <input type="text" name="txtServiceName" ng-model="ServiceName" required>
<span ng-show="myForm.txtServiceName.$error.required">Enter Service Name</span>
<br/>
          <select name="service_id" class="Sitedropdown" style="width: 220px;"          
                  ng-model="ServiceID" 
                  ng-options="service.ServiceID as service.ServiceName for service in services"
                  required> 
            <option value="">Select Service</option> 
          </select> 
          <span ng-show="myForm.service_id.$error.required">Select service</span>

        </form>

    Controller:

        function Ctrl($scope) {
          $scope.services = [
            {ServiceID: 1, ServiceName: 'Service1'},
            {ServiceID: 2, ServiceName: 'Service2'},
            {ServiceID: 3, ServiceName: 'Service3'}
          ];

    $scope.save = function(myForm) {
    console.log('Selected Value: '+ myForm.service_id.$modelValue);
    alert('Data Saved! without validate');
    };
        }

scale Image in an UIButton to AspectFit?

The cleanest solution is to use Auto Layout. I lowered Content Compression Resistance Priority of my UIButton and set the image (not Background Image) via Interface Builder. After that I added a couple of constraints that define size of my button (quite complex in my case) and it worked like a charm.

Converting 24 hour time to 12 hour time w/ AM & PM using Javascript

For anyone reading who wants ONLY the time in the output, you can pass options to JavaScript's Date::toLocaleString() method. Example:

_x000D_

var date = new Date("February 04, 2011 19:00:00");_x000D_
var options = {_x000D_
  hour: 'numeric',_x000D_
  minute: 'numeric',_x000D_
  hour12: true_x000D_
};_x000D_
var timeString = date.toLocaleString('en-US', options);_x000D_
console.log(timeString);

_x000D_

timeString will be set to:

8:00 AM

Add "second: 'numeric'" to your options if you want seconds too. For all option see this.

Finding last occurrence of substring in string, replacing that

Naïve approach:

a = "A long string with a . in the middle ending with ."
fchar = '.'
rchar = '. -'
a[::-1].replace(fchar, rchar[::-1], 1)[::-1]

Out[2]: 'A long string with a . in the middle ending with . -'

pos = a.rfind('.')
a[:pos] + '. -' + a[pos+1:]

DROP IF EXISTS VS DROP?

If no table with such name exists, DROP fails with error while DROP IF EXISTS just does nothing.

This is useful if you create/modifi your database with a script; this way you do not have to ensure manually that previous versions of the table are deleted. You just do a DROP IF EXISTS and forget about it.

Of course, your current DB engine may not support this option, it is hard to tell more about the error with the information you provide.

https connection using CURL from command line

you could use this

curl_setopt($curl->curl, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER, false);

Is it possible to use std::string in a constexpr?

As of C++20, yes.

As of C++17, you can use string_view:

constexpr std::string_view sv = "hello, world";

A string_view is a string-like object that acts as an immutable, non-owning reference to any sequence of char objects.

How can I get the average (mean) of selected columns

Try using rowMeans:

z$mean=rowMeans(z[,c("x", "y")], na.rm=TRUE)

  w x  y mean
1 5 1  1    1
2 6 2  2    2
3 7 3  3    3
4 8 4 NA    4

UTF-8 all the way through

In PHP, you'll need to either use the multibyte functions, or turn on mbstring.func_overload. That way things like strlen will work if you have characters that take more than one byte.

You'll also need to identify the character set of your responses. You can either use AddDefaultCharset, as above, or write PHP code that returns the header. (Or you can add a META tag to your HTML documents.)

How to build and use Google TensorFlow C++ api

answers above are good enough to show how to build the library, but how to collect the headers are still tricky. here I share the little script I use to copy the necessary headers.

SOURCE is the first param, which is the tensorflow source(build) direcoty;
DST is the second param, which is the include directory holds the collected headers. (eg. in cmake, include_directories(./collected_headers_here)).

#!/bin/bash

SOURCE=$1
DST=$2
echo "-- target dir is $DST"
echo "-- source dir is $SOURCE"

if [[ -e $DST ]];then
    echo "clean $DST"
    rm -rf $DST
    mkdir $DST
fi


# 1. copy the source code c++ api needs
mkdir -p $DST/tensorflow
cp -r $SOURCE/tensorflow/core $DST/tensorflow
cp -r $SOURCE/tensorflow/cc $DST/tensorflow
cp -r $SOURCE/tensorflow/c $DST/tensorflow

# 2. copy the generated code, put them back to
# the right directories along side the source code

How to convert enum value to int?

A somewhat different approach (at least on Android) is to use the IntDef annotation to combine a set of int constants

@IntDef({NOTAX, SALESTAX, IMPORTEDTAX})
@interface TAX {}
int NOTAX = 0;
int SALESTAX = 10;
int IMPORTEDTAX = 5;

Use as function parameter:

void computeTax(@TAX int taxPercentage){...}

or in a variable declaration:

@TAX int currentTax = IMPORTEDTAX;

Solving "The ObjectContext instance has been disposed and can no longer be used for operations that require a connection" InvalidOperationException

By default Entity Framework uses lazy-loading for navigation properties. That's why these properties should be marked as virtual - EF creates proxy class for your entity and overrides navigation properties to allow lazy-loading. E.g. if you have this entity:

public class MemberLoan
{
   public string LoandProviderCode { get; set; }
   public virtual Membership Membership { get; set; }
}

Entity Framework will return proxy inherited from this entity and provide DbContext instance to this proxy in order to allow lazy loading of membership later:

public class MemberLoanProxy : MemberLoan
{
    private CosisEntities db;
    private int membershipId;
    private Membership membership;

    public override Membership Membership 
    { 
       get 
       {
          if (membership == null)
              membership = db.Memberships.Find(membershipId);
          return membership;
       }
       set { membership = value; }
    }
}

So, entity has instance of DbContext which was used for loading entity. That's your problem. You have using block around CosisEntities usage. Which disposes context before entities are returned. When some code later tries to use lazy-loaded navigation property, it fails, because context is disposed at that moment.

To fix this behavior you can use eager loading of navigation properties which you will need later:

IQueryable<MemberLoan> query = db.MemberLoans.Include(m => m.Membership);

That will pre-load all memberships and lazy-loading will not be used. For details see Loading Related Entities article on MSDN.

Control cannot fall through from one case label

You missed some breaks there:

switch (searchType)
{
    case "SearchBooks":
        Selenium.Type("//*[@id='SearchBooks_TextInput']", searchText);
        Selenium.Click("//*[@id='SearchBooks_SearchBtn']");
        break;

    case "SearchAuthors":
        Selenium.Type("//*[@id='SearchAuthors_TextInput']", searchText);
        Selenium.Click("//*[@id='SearchAuthors_SearchBtn']");
        break;
}

Without them, the compiler thinks you're trying to execute the lines below case "SearchAuthors": immediately after the lines under case "SearchBooks": have been executed, which isn't allowed in C#.

By adding the break statements at the end of each case, the program exits each case after it's done, for whichever value of searchType.

Does Java read integers in little endian or big endian?

There's no way this could influence anything in Java, since there's no (direct non-API) way to map some bytes directly into an int in Java.

Every API that does this or something similar defines the behaviour pretty precisely, so you should look up the documentation of that API.

Can HTTP POST be limitless?

Different IIS web servers can process different amounts of data in the 'header', according to this (now deleted) article; ~~http://classicasp.aspfaq.com/forms/what-is-the-limit-on-form/post-parameters.html~~;

Note that there is no limit on the number of FORM elements you can pass via POST, but only on the aggregate size of all name/value pairs. While GET is limited to as low as 1024 characters, POST data is limited to 2 MB on IIS 4.0, and 128 KB on IIS 5.0. Each name/value is limited to 1024 characters, as imposed by the SGML spec. Of course this does not apply to files uploaded using enctype='multipart/form-data' ... I have had no problems uploading files in the 90 - 100 MB range using IIS 5.0, aside from having to increase the server.scriptTimeout value as well as my patience!

How to split a string with any whitespace chars as delimiters

In most regex dialects there are a set of convenient character summaries you can use for this kind of thing - these are good ones to remember:

\w - Matches any word character.

\W - Matches any nonword character.

\s - Matches any white-space character.

\S - Matches anything but white-space characters.

\d - Matches any digit.

\D - Matches anything except digits.

A search for "Regex Cheatsheets" should reward you with a whole lot of useful summaries.

Open button in new window?

I couldn't get your method to work @Damien-at-SF...

So I resorted to my old knowledge.

By encasing the input type="button" within a hyperlink element, you can simply declare the target property as so:

<a href="http://www.site.org" target="_blank">
<input type="button" class="button" value="Open" />
</a>

The 'target="_blank"' is the property which makes the browser open the link within a new tab. This attribute has other properties, See: http://www.w3schools.com/tags/att_a_target.asp for further details.

Since the 'value=""' attribute on buttons will write the contained string to the button, a span is not necessary.

Instead of writing:

<element></element>

for most HTML elements you can simply close them with a trailing slash, like so:

<element />

Oh, and finally... a 'button' element has a refresh trigger within it, so I use an 'input type[button]' to avoid triggering the form.

Good Luck Programmers.

Due to StackOverflow's policy I had to change the domain in the example: https://meta.stackexchange.com/questions/208963/why-are-certain-example-urls-like-http-site-com-and-http-mysite-com-blocke

Sort columns of a dataframe by column name

test = data.frame(C=c(0,2,4, 7, 8), A=c(4,2,4, 7, 8), B=c(1, 3, 8,3,2))

Using the simple following function replacement can be performed (but only if data frame does not have many columns):

test <- test[, c("A", "B", "C")]

for others:

test <- test[, c("B", "A", "C")]

Android Preventing Double Click On A Button

    button.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {
        @Override
        public void onClick(View view) {
            //to prevent double click
            button.setOnClickListener(null);
        }
    });

Filter Java Stream to 1 and only 1 element

Using reduce

This is the simpler and flexible way I found (based on @prunge answer)

Optional<User> user = users.stream()
        .filter(user -> user.getId() == 1)
        .reduce((a, b) -> {
            throw new IllegalStateException("Multiple elements: " + a + ", " + b);
        })

This way you obtain:

the Optional - as always with your object or Optional.empty() if not present
the Exception (with eventually YOUR custom type/message) if there's more than one element

ValueError: unsupported pickle protocol: 3, python2 pickle can not load the file dumped by python 3 pickle?

You should write the pickled data with a lower protocol number in Python 3. Python 3 introduced a new protocol with the number 3 (and uses it as default), so switch back to a value of 2 which can be read by Python 2.

Check the protocolparameter in pickle.dump. Your resulting code will look like this.

pickle.dump(your_object, your_file, protocol=2)

There is no protocolparameter in pickle.load because pickle can determine the protocol from the file.

Unit Testing C Code

In case you are targeting Win32 platforms or NT kernel mode, you should have a look at cfix.

Get the value of checked checkbox?

How to load a UIView using a nib file created with Interface Builder

This is a great question (+1) and the answers were almost helpful ;) Sorry guys, but I had a heck of a time slogging through this, though both Gonso & AVeryDev gave good hints. Hopefully, this answer will help others.

MyVC is the view controller holding all this stuff.

MySubview is the view that we want to load from a xib

In MyVC.xib, create a view of type MySubView that is the right size & shape & positioned where you want it.

In MyVC.h, have

IBOutlet MySubview *mySubView
// ...
@property (nonatomic, retain) MySubview *mySubview;

In MyVC.m, @synthesize mySubView; and don't forget to release it in dealloc.
In MySubview.h, have an outlet/property for UIView *view (may be unnecessary, but worked for me.) Synthesize & release it in .m
In MySubview.xib
- set file owner type to MySubview, and link the view property to your view.
- Lay out all the bits & connect to the IBOutlet's as desired

Back in MyVC.m, have

NSArray *xibviews = [[NSBundle mainBundle] loadNibNamed: @"MySubview" owner: mySubview options: NULL];
MySubview *msView = [xibviews objectAtIndex: 0];
msView.frame = mySubview.frame;
UIView *oldView = mySubview;
// Too simple: [self.view insertSubview: msView aboveSubview: mySubview];
[[mySubview superview] insertSubview: msView aboveSubview: mySubview]; // allows nesting
self.mySubview = msView;
[oldCBView removeFromSuperview];

The tricky bit for me was: the hints in the other answers loaded my view from the xib, but did NOT replace the view in MyVC (duh!) -- I had to swap that out on my own.

Also, to get access to mySubview's methods, the view property in the .xib file must be set to MySubview. Otherwise, it comes back as a plain-old UIView.

If there's a way to load mySubview directly from its own xib, that'd rock, but this got me where I needed to be.

Jquery post, response in new window

Accepted answer doesn't work with "use strict" as the "with" statement throws an error. So instead:

$.post(url, function (data) {
    var w = window.open('about:blank', 'windowname');
    w.document.write(data);
    w.document.close();
});

Also, make sure 'windowname' doesn't have any spaces in it because that will fail in IE :)

The simplest possible JavaScript countdown timer?

I have two demos, one with jQuery and one without. Neither use date functions and are about as simple as it gets.

Demo with vanilla JavaScript

        seconds = parseInt(timer % 60, 10);_x000D_
_x000D_
        minutes = minutes < 10 ? "0" + minutes : minutes;_x000D_
        seconds = seconds < 10 ? "0" + seconds : seconds;_x000D_

Demo with jQuery

function startTimer(duration, display) {
    var timer = duration, minutes, seconds;
    setInterval(function () {
        minutes = parseInt(timer / 60, 10);
        seconds = parseInt(timer % 60, 10);

        minutes = minutes < 10 ? "0" + minutes : minutes;
        seconds = seconds < 10 ? "0" + seconds : seconds;

        display.text(minutes + ":" + seconds);

        if (--timer < 0) {
            timer = duration;
        }
    }, 1000);
}

jQuery(function ($) {
    var fiveMinutes = 60 * 5,
        display = $('#time');
    startTimer(fiveMinutes, display);
});

However if you want a more accurate timer that is only slightly more complicated:

_x000D_

function startTimer(duration, display) {_x000D_
    var start = Date.now(),_x000D_
        diff,_x000D_
        minutes,_x000D_
        seconds;_x000D_
    function timer() {_x000D_
        // get the number of seconds that have elapsed since _x000D_
        // startTimer() was called_x000D_
        diff = duration - (((Date.now() - start) / 1000) | 0);_x000D_
_x000D_
        // does the same job as parseInt truncates the float_x000D_
        minutes = (diff / 60) | 0;_x000D_
        seconds = (diff % 60) | 0;_x000D_
_x000D_
        minutes = minutes < 10 ? "0" + minutes : minutes;_x000D_
        seconds = seconds < 10 ? "0" + seconds : seconds;_x000D_
_x000D_
        display.textContent = minutes + ":" + seconds; _x000D_
_x000D_
        if (diff <= 0) {_x000D_
            // add one second so that the count down starts at the full duration_x000D_
            // example 05:00 not 04:59_x000D_
            start = Date.now() + 1000;_x000D_
        }_x000D_
    };_x000D_
    // we don't want to wait a full second before the timer starts_x000D_
    timer();_x000D_
    setInterval(timer, 1000);_x000D_
}_x000D_
_x000D_

Now that we have made a few pretty simple timers we can start to think about re-usability and separating concerns. We can do this by asking "what should a count down timer do?"

Should a count down timer count down? Yes
Should a count down timer know how to display itself on the DOM? No
Should a count down timer know to restart itself when it reaches 0? No
Should a count down timer provide a way for a client to access how much time is left? Yes

So with these things in mind lets write a better (but still very simple) CountDownTimer

function CountDownTimer(duration, granularity) {
  this.duration = duration;
  this.granularity = granularity || 1000;
  this.tickFtns = [];
  this.running = false;
}

CountDownTimer.prototype.start = function() {
  if (this.running) {
    return;
  }
  this.running = true;
  var start = Date.now(),
      that = this,
      diff, obj;

  (function timer() {
    diff = that.duration - (((Date.now() - start) / 1000) | 0);

    if (diff > 0) {
      setTimeout(timer, that.granularity);
    } else {
      diff = 0;
      that.running = false;
    }

    obj = CountDownTimer.parse(diff);
    that.tickFtns.forEach(function(ftn) {
      ftn.call(this, obj.minutes, obj.seconds);
    }, that);
  }());
};

CountDownTimer.prototype.onTick = function(ftn) {
  if (typeof ftn === 'function') {
    this.tickFtns.push(ftn);
  }
  return this;
};

CountDownTimer.prototype.expired = function() {
  return !this.running;
};

CountDownTimer.parse = function(seconds) {
  return {
    'minutes': (seconds / 60) | 0,
    'seconds': (seconds % 60) | 0
  };
};

So why is this implementation better than the others? Here are some examples of what you can do with it. Note that all but the first example can't be achieved by the startTimer functions.

An example that displays the time in XX:XX format and restarts after reaching 00:00

An example that displays the time in two different formats

An example that has two different timers and only one restarts

An example that starts the count down timer when a button is pressed

How does strcmp() work?

This, from the masters themselves (K&R, 2nd ed., pg. 106):

// strcmp: return < 0 if s < t, 0 if s == t, > 0 if s > t
int strcmp(char *s, char *t) 
{
    int i;

    for (i = 0; s[i] == t[i]; i++)
        if (s[i] == '\0')
            return 0;
    return s[i] - t[i];
}

How to upload and parse a CSV file in php

This can be done in a much simpler manner now.

$tmpName = $_FILES['csv']['tmp_name'];
$csvAsArray = array_map('str_getcsv', file($tmpName));

This will return you a parsed array of your CSV data. Then you can just loop through it using a foreach statement.

How to ignore HTML element from tabindex?

You can use tabindex="-1".

The W3C HTML5 specification supports negative tabindex values:

If the value is a negative integer
The user agent must set the element's tabindex focus flag, but should not allow the element to be reached using sequential focus navigation.

Watch out though that this is a HTML5 feature and might not work with old browsers.
To be W3C HTML 4.01 standard (from 1999) compliant, tabindex would need to be positive.

Sample usage below in pure HTML.

_x000D_

<input />_x000D_
<input tabindex="-1" placeholder="NoTabIndex" />_x000D_
<input />

_x000D_

cell format round and display 2 decimal places

Another way is to use FIXED function, you can specify the number of decimal places but it defaults to 2 if the places aren't specified, i.e.

=FIXED(E5,2)

or just

=FIXED(E5)

Unable to auto-detect email address

You can solve the problem with the global solution, but firstly I want to describe the solution for each project individually, cause of trustfully compatibility with most of Git clients and other implemented Git environments:

Individual Solution

Go to the following location:

Local/repo/location/.git/

open "config" file there, and set your parameters like the example (add to the end of the file):

[user]
    name = YOUR-NAME
    email = YOUR-EMAIL-ADDRESS

Global Solution

Open a command line and type:

git config --global user.email "[email protected]"
git config --global user.name "YOUR NAME"

What is the C# Using block and why should I use it?

Placing code in a using block ensures that the objects are disposed (though not necessarily collected) as soon as control leaves the block.

HashSet vs LinkedHashSet

LinkedHashSet's constructors invoke the following base class constructor:

HashSet(int initialCapacity, float loadFactor, boolean dummy) {
  map = new LinkedHashMap<E, Object>(initialCapacity, loadFactor);
}

As you can see, the internal map is a LinkedHashMap. If you look inside LinkedHashMap, you'll discover the following field:

private transient Entry<K, V> header;

This is the linked list in question.

CSS overflow-x: visible; and overflow-y: hidden; causing scrollbar issue

There is now a new way of addressing this issue - if you remove position: relative from the container which needs to have the overflow-y visible, you can have overflow-y visible and overflow-x hidden, and vice versa (have overflow-x visible and overflow-y hidden, just make sure the container with the visible property is not relatively positioned).

See this post from CSS Tricks for more details - it worked for me: https://css-tricks.com/popping-hidden-overflow/

The ORDER BY clause is invalid in views, inline functions, derived tables, subqueries, and common table expressions

You do not need to use ORDER BY in inner query after WHERE clause because you have already used it in ROW_NUMBER() OVER (ORDER BY VRDATE DESC).

SELECT 
    * 
FROM (
    SELECT 
        Stockmain.VRNOA, 
        item.description as item_description,

        stockdetail.qty, 
        stockdetail.rate, 
        stockdetail.amount, 
        ROW_NUMBER() OVER (ORDER BY VRDATE DESC) AS RowNum  --< ORDER BY

    MyDerivedTable.RowNum BETWEEN 1 and 5

Finding the position of bottom of a div with jquery

EDIT: this solution is now in the original answer too.

The accepted answer is not quite correct. You should not be using the position() function since it is relative to the parent. If you are doing global positioning(in most cases?) you should only add the offset top with the outerheight like so:

var actualBottom = $(selector).offset().top + $(selector).outerHeight(true);

How do I see all foreign keys to a table or column?

I'm reluctant to add yet another answer, but I've had to beg, borrow and steal from the others to get what I want, which is a complete list of all the FK relationships on tables in a given schema, INCLUDING FKs to tables in other schemas. The two crucial recordsets are information_schema.KEY_COLUMN_USAGE and information_schema.referential_constraints. If an attribute you want is missing, just uncomment the KCU., RC. to see what's available

SELECT DISTINCT KCU.TABLE_NAME, KCU.COLUMN_NAME, REFERENCED_TABLE_SCHEMA, KCU.REFERENCED_TABLE_NAME, KCU.REFERENCED_COLUMN_NAME, UPDATE_RULE, DELETE_RULE #, KCU.*, RC.*
FROM information_schema.KEY_COLUMN_USAGE KCU
INNER JOIN information_schema.referential_constraints RC ON KCU.CONSTRAINT_NAME = RC.CONSTRAINT_NAME
WHERE TABLE_SCHEMA = (your schema name)
AND KCU.REFERENCED_TABLE_NAME IS NOT NULL
ORDER BY KCU.TABLE_NAME, KCU.COLUMN_NAME;

Named placeholders in string formatting

Apache Commons Lang's replaceEach method may come in handy dependeding on your specific needs. You can easily use it to replace placeholders by name with this single method call:

StringUtils.replaceEach("There's an incorrect value '%(value)' in column # %(column)",
            new String[] { "%(value)", "%(column)" }, new String[] { x, y });

Given some input text, this will replace all occurrences of the placeholders in the first string array with the corresponding values in the second one.

How do I remove duplicates from a C# array?

List<String> myStringList = new List<string>();
foreach (string s in myStringArray)
{
    if (!myStringList.Contains(s))
    {
        myStringList.Add(s);
    }
}

This is O(n^2), which won't matter for a short list which is going to be stuffed into a combo, but could be rapidly be a problem on a big collection.

MongoDB vs. Cassandra

Lots of reads in every query, fewer regular writes

Both databases perform well on reads where the hot data set fits in memory. Both also emphasize join-less data models (and encourage denormalization instead), and both provide indexes on documents or rows, although MongoDB's indexes are currently more flexible.

Cassandra's storage engine provides constant-time writes no matter how big your data set grows. Writes are more problematic in MongoDB, partly because of the b-tree based storage engine, but more because of the multi-granularity locking it does.

For analytics, MongoDB provides a custom map/reduce implementation; Cassandra provides native Hadoop support, including for Hive (a SQL data warehouse built on Hadoop map/reduce) and Pig (a Hadoop-specific analysis language that many think is a better fit for map/reduce workloads than SQL). Cassandra also supports use of Spark.

Not worried about "massive" scalability

If you're looking at a single server, MongoDB is probably a better fit. For those more concerned about scaling, Cassandra's no-single-point-of-failure architecture will be easier to set up and more reliable. (MongoDB's global write lock tends to become more painful, too.) Cassandra also gives a lot more control over how your replication works, including support for multiple data centers.

More concerned about simple setup, maintenance and code

Both are trivial to set up, with reasonable out-of-the-box defaults for a single server. Cassandra is simpler to set up in a multi-server configuration since there are no special-role nodes to worry about.

If you're presently using JSON blobs, MongoDB is an insanely good match for your use case, given that it uses BSON to store the data. You'll be able to have richer and more queryable data than you would in your present database. This would be the most significant win for Mongo.

Pass in an array of Deferreds to $.when()

The workarounds above (thanks!) don't properly address the problem of getting back the objects provided to the deferred's resolve() method because jQuery calls the done() and fail() callbacks with individual parameters, not an array. That means we have to use the arguments pseudo-array to get all the resolved/rejected objects returned by the array of deferreds, which is ugly:

$.when.apply($,deferreds).then(function() {
     var objects=arguments; // The array of resolved objects as a pseudo-array
     ...
};

Since we passed in an array of deferreds, it would be nice to get back an array of results. It would also be nice to get back an actual array instead of a pseudo-array so we can use methods like Array.sort().

Here is a solution inspired by when.js's when.all() method that addresses these problems:

// Put somewhere in your scripting environment
if (typeof jQuery.when.all === 'undefined') {
    jQuery.when.all = function (deferreds) {
        return $.Deferred(function (def) {
            $.when.apply(jQuery, deferreds).then(
                function () {
                    def.resolveWith(this, [Array.prototype.slice.call(arguments)]);
                },
                function () {
                    def.rejectWith(this, [Array.prototype.slice.call(arguments)]);
                });
        });
    }
}

Now you can simply pass in an array of deferreds/promises and get back an array of resolved/rejected objects in your callback, like so:

$.when.all(deferreds).then(function(objects) {
    console.log("Resolved objects:", objects);
});

How can I execute Python scripts using Anaconda's version of Python?

How to determine CPU and memory consumption from inside a process?

Linux

In Linux, this information is available in the /proc file system. I'm not a big fan of the text file format used, as each Linux distribution seems to customize at least one important file. A quick look as the source to 'ps' reveals the mess.

But here is where to find the information you seek:

/proc/meminfo contains the majority of the system-wide information you seek. Here it looks like on my system; I think you are interested in MemTotal, MemFree, SwapTotal, and SwapFree:

For CPU utilization, you have to do a little work. Linux makes available overall CPU utilization since system start; this probably isn't what you are interested in. If you want to know what the CPU utilization was for the last second, or 10 seconds, then you need to query the information and calculate it yourself.

The information is available in /proc/stat, which is documented pretty well at http://www.linuxhowtos.org/System/procstat.htm; here is what it looks like on my 4-core box:

Anderson cxc #  more /proc/stat
cpu  2329889 0 2364567 1063530460 9034 9463 96111 0

First, you need to determine how many CPUs (or processors, or processing cores) are available in the system. To do this, count the number of 'cpuN' entries, where N starts at 0 and increments. Don't count the 'cpu' line, which is a combination of the cpuN lines. In my example, you can see cpu0 through cpu3, for a total of 4 processors. From now on, you can ignore cpu0..cpu3, and focus only on the 'cpu' line.

Next, you need to know that the fourth number in these lines is a measure of idle time, and thus the fourth number on the 'cpu' line is the total idle time for all processors since boot time. This time is measured in Linux "jiffies", which are 1/100 of a second each.

But you don't care about the total idle time; you care about the idle time in a given period, e.g., the last second. Do calculate that, you need to read this file twice, 1 second apart.Then you can do a diff of the fourth value of the line. For example, if you take a sample and get:

cpu  2330047 0 2365006 1063853632 9035 9463 96114 0

Then one second later you get this sample:

cpu  2330047 0 2365007 1063854028 9035 9463 96114 0

Subtract the two numbers, and you get a diff of 396, which means that your CPU had been idle for 3.96 seconds out of the last 1.00 second. The trick, of course, is that you need to divide by the number of processors. 3.96 / 4 = 0.99, and there is your idle percentage; 99% idle, and 1% busy.

In my code, I have a ring buffer of 360 entries, and I read this file every second. That lets me quickly calculate the CPU utilization for 1 second, 10 seconds, etc., all the way up to 1 hour.

For the process-specific information, you have to look in /proc/pid; if you don't care abut your pid, you can look in /proc/self.

CPU used by your process is available in /proc/self/stat. This is an odd-looking file consisting of a single line; for example:

19340 (whatever) S 19115 19115 3084 34816 19115 4202752 118200 607 0 0 770 384 2
 7 20 0 77 0 266764385 692477952 105074 4294967295 134512640 146462952 321468364
8 3214683328 4294960144 0 2147221247 268439552 1276 4294967295 0 0 17 0 0 0 0

The important data here are the 13th and 14th tokens (0 and 770 here). The 13th token is the number of jiffies that the process has executed in user mode, and the 14th is the number of jiffies that the process has executed in kernel mode. Add the two together, and you have its total CPU utilization.

Again, you will have to sample this file periodically, and calculate the diff, in order to determine the process's CPU usage over time.

Edit: remember that when you calculate your process's CPU utilization, you have to take into account 1) the number of threads in your process, and 2) the number of processors in the system. For example, if your single-threaded process is using only 25% of the CPU, that could be good or bad. Good on a single-processor system, but bad on a 4-processor system; this means that your process is running constantly, and using 100% of the CPU cycles available to it.

For the process-specific memory information, you ahve to look at /proc/self/status, which looks like this:

Name:   whatever
State:  S (sleeping)
Tgid:   19340
Pid:    19340

The entries that start with 'Vm' are the interesting ones:

VmPeak is the maximum virtual memory space used by the process, in kB (1024 bytes).
VmSize is the current virtual memory space used by the process, in kB. In my example, it's pretty large: 651,352 kB, or about 636 megabytes.
VmRss is the amount of memory that have been mapped into the process' address space, or its resident set size. This is substantially smaller (420,296 kB, or about 410 megabytes). The difference: my program has mapped 636 MB via mmap(), but has only accessed 410 MB of it, and thus only 410 MB of pages have been assigned to it.

The only item I'm not sure about is Swapspace currently used by my process. I don't know if this is available.

How to turn off word wrapping in HTML?

I wonder why you find as solution the "white-space" with "nowrap" or "pre", it is not doing the correct behaviour: you force your text in a single line! The text should break lines, but not break words as default. This is caused by some css attributes: word-wrap, overflow-wrap, word-break, and hyphens. So you can have either:

word-break: break-all;
word-wrap: break-word;
overflow-wrap: break-word;
-webkit-hyphens: auto;
-moz-hyphens: auto;
-ms-hyphens: auto;
hyphens: auto;

So the solution is remove them, or override them with "unset" or "normal":

word-break: unset;
word-wrap: unset;
overflow-wrap: unset;
-webkit-hyphens: unset;
-moz-hyphens: unset;
-ms-hyphens: unset;
hyphens: unset;

UPDATE: i provide also proof with JSfiddle: https://jsfiddle.net/azozp8rr/

Java Enum return Int

Simply call the ordinal() method on an enum value, to retrieve its corresponding number. There's no need to declare an addition attribute with its value, each enumerated value gets its own number by default, assigned starting from zero, incrementing by one for each value in the same order they were declared.

You shouldn't depend on the int value of an enum, only on its actual value. Enums in Java are a different kind of monster and are not like enums in C, where you depend on their integer code.

Regarding the example you provided in the question, Font.PLAIN works because that's just an integer constant of the Font class. If you absolutely need a (possibly changing) numeric code, then an enum is not the right tool for the job, better stick to numeric constants.

Understanding dict.copy() - shallow or deep?

Take this example:

original = dict(a=1, b=2, c=dict(d=4, e=5))
new = original.copy()

Now let's change a value in the 'shallow' (first) level:

new['a'] = 10
# new = {'a': 10, 'b': 2, 'c': {'d': 4, 'e': 5}}
# original = {'a': 1, 'b': 2, 'c': {'d': 4, 'e': 5}}
# no change in original, since ['a'] is an immutable integer

Now let's change a value one level deeper:

new['c']['d'] = 40
# new = {'a': 10, 'b': 2, 'c': {'d': 40, 'e': 5}}
# original = {'a': 1, 'b': 2, 'c': {'d': 40, 'e': 5}}
# new['c'] points to the same original['d'] mutable dictionary, so it will be changed

How to check if an element exists in the xml using xpath?

If boolean() is not available (the tool I'm using does not) one way to achieve it is:

//SELECT[@id='xpto']/OPTION[not(not(@selected))]

In this case, within the /OPTION, one of the options is the selected one. The "selected" does not have a value... it just exists, while the other OPTION do not have "selected". This achieves the objective.

What is the difference between Double.parseDouble(String) and Double.valueOf(String)?

parseDouble returns a primitive double containing the value of the string:

Returns a new double initialized to the value represented by the specified String, as performed by the valueOf method of class Double.

valueOf returns a Double instance, if already cached, you'll get the same cached instance.

Returns a Double instance representing the specified double value. If a new Double instance is not required, this method should generally be used in preference to the constructor Double(double), as this method is likely to yield significantly better space and time performance by caching frequently requested values.

To avoid the overhead of creating a new Double object instance, you should normally use valueOf

Android load from URL to Bitmap

If you are using Picasso or Glide or Universal-Image-Loader for load image from url.
You can simply get the loaded bitmap by

For Picasso (current version 2.71828)

Java code

Picasso.get().load(imageUrl).into(new Target() {
    @Override
    public void onBitmapLoaded(Bitmap bitmap, Picasso.LoadedFrom from) {
        // loaded bitmap is here (bitmap)
    }

    @Override
    public void onBitmapFailed(Drawable errorDrawable) { }

    @Override
    public void onPrepareLoad(Drawable placeHolderDrawable) {}
});

Kotlin code

Picasso.get().load(url).into(object : com.squareup.picasso.Target { 
    override fun onBitmapLoaded(bitmap: Bitmap?, from: Picasso.LoadedFrom?) {
         // loaded bitmap is here (bitmap)
    }

    override fun onPrepareLoad(placeHolderDrawable: Drawable?) {}

    override fun onBitmapFailed(e: Exception?, errorDrawable: Drawable?) {}
})

jQuery hasAttr checking to see if there is an attribute on an element

You're so close it's crazy.

if($(this).attr("name"))

There's no hasAttr but hitting an attribute by name will just return undefined if it doesn't exist.

This is why the below works. If you remove the name attribute from #heading the second alert will fire.

Update: As per the comments, the below will ONLY work if the attribute is present AND is set to something not if the attribute is there but empty

<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function()
{
    if ($("#heading").attr("name"))
      alert('Look, this is showing because it\'s not undefined');
    else
      alert('This would be called if it were undefined or is there but empty');
});
</script>
<h1 id="heading" name="bob">Welcome!</h1>

Center text in table cell

I would recommend using CSS for this. You should create a CSS rule to enforce the centering, for example:

.ui-helper-center {
    text-align: center;
}

And then add the ui-helper-center class to the table cells for which you wish to control the alignment:

<td class="ui-helper-center">Content</td>

EDIT: Since this answer was accepted, I felt obligated to edit out the parts that caused a flame-war in the comments, and to not promote poor and outdated practices.

See Gabe's answer for how to include the CSS rule into your page.

Best way to encode Degree Celsius symbol into web page?

The degree sign belongs to the number, and not to the "C". You can regard the degree sign as a number symbol, just like the minus sign.
There shall not be any space between the digits and the degree sign.
There shall be a non-breaking space between the degree sign and the "C".

Inline labels in Matplotlib

Nice question, a while ago I've experimented a bit with this, but haven't used it a lot because it's still not bulletproof. I divided the plot area into a 32x32 grid and calculated a 'potential field' for the best position of a label for each line according the following rules:

white space is a good place for a label
Label should be near corresponding line
Label should be away from the other lines

The code was something like this:

import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import numpy as np
from scipy import ndimage


def my_legend(axis = None):

    if axis == None:
        axis = plt.gca()

    N = 32
    Nlines = len(axis.lines)
    print Nlines

    xmin, xmax = axis.get_xlim()
    ymin, ymax = axis.get_ylim()

    # the 'point of presence' matrix
    pop = np.zeros((Nlines, N, N), dtype=np.float)    

    for l in range(Nlines):
        # get xy data and scale it to the NxN squares
        xy = axis.lines[l].get_xydata()
        xy = (xy - [xmin,ymin]) / ([xmax-xmin, ymax-ymin]) * N
        xy = xy.astype(np.int32)
        # mask stuff outside plot        
        mask = (xy[:,0] >= 0) & (xy[:,0] < N) & (xy[:,1] >= 0) & (xy[:,1] < N)
        xy = xy[mask]
        # add to pop
        for p in xy:
            pop[l][tuple(p)] = 1.0

    # find whitespace, nice place for labels
    ws = 1.0 - (np.sum(pop, axis=0) > 0) * 1.0 
    # don't use the borders
    ws[:,0]   = 0
    ws[:,N-1] = 0
    ws[0,:]   = 0  
    ws[N-1,:] = 0  

    # blur the pop's
    for l in range(Nlines):
        pop[l] = ndimage.gaussian_filter(pop[l], sigma=N/5)

    for l in range(Nlines):
        # positive weights for current line, negative weight for others....
        w = -0.3 * np.ones(Nlines, dtype=np.float)
        w[l] = 0.5

        # calculate a field         
        p = ws + np.sum(w[:, np.newaxis, np.newaxis] * pop, axis=0)

WPF binding to Listbox selectedItem

since you set your itemsource to your collection, your textbox is tied to each individual item in that collection. the selected item property is useful in this scenario if you were trying to do a master-detail form, having 2 listboxes. you would bind the second listbox's itemsource to the child collection of rules. in otherwords the selected item alerts outside controls that your source has changed, internal controls(those inside your datatemplate already are aware of the change.

and to answer your question yes in most circumstances setting the itemsource is the same as setting the datacontext of the control.

Where are the recorded macros stored in Notepad++?

Go to %appdata%\Notepad++ folder.

The macro definitions are held in shortcuts.xml inside the <Macros> tag. You can copy the whole file, or copy the tag and paste it into shortcuts.xml at the other location.
In the latter case, be sure to use another editor, since N++ overwrites shortcuts.xml on exit.

One more thing... If you already ignored those files through Eclipse (with Team -> Ignored resources) you have to undo these settings so the files are controlled by Subclipse again and "Add to svn:ignore" option reappears

Android: How to create a Dialog without a title?

olivierg's answer worked for me and is the best solution if creating a custom Dialog class is the route you want to go. However, it bothered me that I couldn't use the AlertDialog class. I wanted to be able to use the default system AlertDialog style. Creating a custom dialog class would not have this style.

So I found a solution (hack) that will work without having to create a custom class, you can use the existing builders.

The AlertDialog puts a View above your content view as a placeholder for the title. If you find the view and set the height to 0, the space goes away.

I have tested this on 2.3 and 3.0 so far, it is possible it doesn't work on every version yet.

Here are two helper methods for doing it:

/**
 * Show a Dialog with the extra title/top padding collapsed.
 * 
 * @param customView The custom view that you added to the dialog
 * @param dialog The dialog to display without top spacing
     * @param show Whether or not to call dialog.show() at the end.
 */
public static void showDialogWithNoTopSpace(final View customView, final Dialog dialog, boolean show) {
    // Now we setup a listener to detect as soon as the dialog has shown.
    customView.getViewTreeObserver().addOnGlobalLayoutListener(new OnGlobalLayoutListener() {

        @Override
        public void onGlobalLayout() {
            // Check if your view has been laid out yet
            if (customView.getHeight() > 0) {
                // If it has been, we will search the view hierarchy for the view that is responsible for the extra space. 
                LinearLayout dialogLayout = findDialogLinearLayout(customView);
                if (dialogLayout == null) {
                    // Could find it. Unexpected.

                } else {
                    // Found it, now remove the height of the title area
                    View child = dialogLayout.getChildAt(0);
                    if (child != customView) {
                        // remove height
                        LinearLayout.LayoutParams lp = (LinearLayout.LayoutParams) child.getLayoutParams();
                        lp.height = 0;
                        child.setLayoutParams(lp);

                    } else {
                        // Could find it. Unexpected.
                    }
                }

                // Done with the listener
                customView.getViewTreeObserver().removeGlobalOnLayoutListener(this);
            }
         }

    });

    // Show the dialog
    if (show)
             dialog.show();
}

/**
 * Searches parents for a LinearLayout
 * 
 * @param view to search the search from
 * @return the first parent view that is a LinearLayout or null if none was found
 */
public static LinearLayout findDialogLinearLayout(View view) {
    ViewParent parent = (ViewParent) view.getParent();
    if (parent != null) {
        if (parent instanceof LinearLayout) {
            // Found it
            return (LinearLayout) parent;

        } else if (parent instanceof View) {
            // Keep looking
            return findDialogLinearLayout((View) parent);

        }
    }

    // Couldn't find it
    return null;
}

Here is an example of how it is used:

    Dialog dialog = new AlertDialog.Builder(this)
        .setView(yourCustomView)
        .create();

    showDialogWithNoTopSpace(yourCustomView, dialog, true);

If you are using this with a DialogFragment, override the DialogFragment's onCreateDialog method. Then create and return your dialog like the first example above. The only change is that you should pass false as the 3rd parameter (show) so that it doesn't call show() on the dialog. The DialogFragment will handle that later.

Example:

@Override
public Dialog onCreateDialog(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    Dialog dialog = new AlertDialog.Builder(getContext())
        .setView(yourCustomView)
        .create();

    showDialogWithNoTopSpace(yourCustomView, dialog, false);
    return dialog;
}

As I test this further I'll be sure to update with any additional tweaks needed.

UIAlertController custom font, size, color

Use UIAppearance protocol. Example for setting a font - create a category to extend UILabel:

@interface UILabel (FontAppearance)
@property (nonatomic, copy) UIFont * appearanceFont UI_APPEARANCE_SELECTOR;
@end


@implementation UILabel (FontAppearance)

-(void)setAppearanceFont:(UIFont *)font {
    if (font)
        [self setFont:font];
}

-(UIFont *)appearanceFont {
    return self.font;
}

@end

And its usage:

UILabel * appearanceLabel = [UILabel appearanceWhenContainedIn:UIAlertController.class, nil];
[appearanceLabel setAppearanceFont:[UIFont boldSystemFontOfSize:10]]; //for example

Tested and working with style UIAlertControllerStyleActionSheet, but I guess it will work with UIAlertControllerStyleAlert too.

P.S. Better check for class availability instead of iOS version:

if ([UIAlertController class]) {
    // UIAlertController code (iOS 8)
} else {
    // UIAlertView code (pre iOS 8)
}

How to get size in bytes of a CLOB column in Oracle?

It only works till 4000 byte, What if the clob is bigger than 4000 bytes then we use this

declare
v_clob_size clob;

begin

      v_clob_size:= (DBMS_LOB.getlength(v_clob)) / 1024 / 1024;
      DBMS_OUTPUT.put_line('CLOB Size   ' || v_clob_size);   
end;

select (DBMS_LOB.getlength(your_column_name))/1024/1024 from your_table

Errno 10060] A connection attempt failed because the connected party did not properly respond after a period of time

As ping works, but telnetto port 80 does not, the HTTP port 80 is closed on your machine. I assume that your browser's HTTP connection goes through a proxy (as browsing works, how else would you read stackoverflow?). You need to add some code to your python program, that handles the proxy, like described here:

MySQL - sum column value(s) based on row from the same table

This might be seen as a little complex but does exactly what you want

SELECT 
  DISTINCT(p.`ProductID`) AS ProductID,
  SUM(pl.CashAmount) AS Cash,
  SUM(pr.CashAmount) AS `Check`,
  SUM(px.CashAmount) AS `Credit Card`,
  SUM(pl.CashAmount) + SUM(pr.CashAmount) +SUM(px.CashAmount) AS Amount
FROM
  `payments` AS p 
  LEFT JOIN (SELECT ProductID,PaymentMethod , IFNULL(Amount,0) AS CashAmount FROM payments WHERE PaymentMethod = 'Cash' GROUP BY ProductID , PaymentMethod ) AS pl 
    ON pl.`PaymentMethod` = p.`PaymentMethod` AND pl.ProductID = p.`ProductID`
  LEFT JOIN (SELECT ProductID,PaymentMethod , IFNULL(Amount,0) AS CashAmount FROM payments WHERE PaymentMethod = 'Check' GROUP BY ProductID , PaymentMethod) AS pr 
    ON pr.`PaymentMethod` = p.`PaymentMethod` AND pr.ProductID = p.`ProductID`
  LEFT JOIN (SELECT ProductID, PaymentMethod , IFNULL(Amount,0) AS CashAmount FROM payments WHERE PaymentMethod = 'Credit Card' GROUP BY ProductID , PaymentMethod) AS px 
    ON px.`PaymentMethod` = p.`PaymentMethod` AND px.ProductID = p.`ProductID`
GROUP BY p.`ProductID` ;

Output

ProductID | Cash | Check | Credit Card | Amount

JavaFX FXML controller - constructor vs initialize method

In Addition to the above answers, there probably should be noted that there is a legacy way to implement the initialization. There is an interface called Initializable from the fxml library.

import javafx.fxml.Initializable;

class MyController implements Initializable {
    @FXML private TableView<MyModel> tableView;

    @Override
    public void initialize(URL location, ResourceBundle resources) {
        tableView.getItems().addAll(getDataFromSource());
    }
}

Parameters:

location - The location used to resolve relative paths for the root object, or null if the location is not known.
resources - The resources used to localize the root object, or null if the root object was not localized.

And the note of the docs why the simple way of using @FXML public void initialize() works:

NOTE This interface has been superseded by automatic injection of location and resources properties into the controller. FXMLLoader will now automatically call any suitably annotated no-arg initialize() method defined by the controller. It is recommended that the injection approach be used whenever possible.

How do you loop through each line in a text file using a windows batch file?

How to get values and keys from HashMap?

To get all the values from a map:

for (Tab tab : hash.values()) {
    // do something with tab
}

To get all the entries from a map:

for ( Map.Entry<String, Tab> entry : hash.entrySet()) {
    String key = entry.getKey();
    Tab tab = entry.getValue();
    // do something with key and/or tab
}

Java 8 update:

To process all values:

hash.values().forEach(tab -> /* do something with tab */);

To process all entries:

hash.forEach((key, tab) -> /* do something with key and tab */);

ReferenceError: Invalid left-hand side in assignment

The same happened for me with eslint module. EsLinter throw Parsing error: Invalid left-hand side in assignment expression for await in second if statement.

if (condition_one) {
  let result = await myFunction()
}

if (condition_two) {
  let result = await myFunction() // eslint parsing error
}

As strange as it sounds what fixed this error was to add ; semicolon at the end of line where await occurred.

if (condition_one) {
  let result = await myFunction();
}

if (condition_two) {
  let result = await myFunction();
}

How do I loop through rows with a data reader in C#?

How do I loop through rows with a data reader in C#?

IDataReader.Read() advances the reader to the next row in the resultset.

while(reader.Read()){
    /* do whatever you'd like to do for each row. */
}

So, for each iteration of your loop, you'd do another loop, 0 to reader.FieldCount, and call reader.GetValue(i) for each field.

The bigger question is what kind of structure do you want to use to hold that data?

Is there an opposite to display:none?

A true opposite to display: none there is not (yet).

But display: unset is very close and works in most cases.

From MDN (Mozilla Developer Network):

The unset CSS keyword is the combination of the initial and inherit keywords. Like these two other CSS-wide keywords, it can be applied to any CSS property, including the CSS shorthand all. This keyword resets the property to its inherited value if it inherits from its parent or to its initial value if not. In other words, it behaves like the inherit keyword in the first case and like the initial keyword in the second case.

(source: https://developer.mozilla.org/docs/Web/CSS/unset)

Note also that display: revert is currently being developed. See MDN for details.

How do I make WRAP_CONTENT work on a RecyclerView

This now works as they've made a release in version 23.2, as stated in this post. Quoting the official blogpost

This release brings an exciting new feature to the LayoutManager API: auto-measurement! This allows a RecyclerView to size itself based on the size of its contents. This means that previously unavailable scenarios, such as using WRAP_CONTENT for a dimension of the RecyclerView, are now possible. You’ll find all built in LayoutManagers now support auto-measurement.

How to position a table at the center of div horizontally & vertically

How to make canvas responsive

extending accepted answer with jquery

what if you want to add more canvas?, this jquery.each answer it

responsiveCanvas(); //first init
$(window).resize(function(){
  responsiveCanvas(); //every resizing
  stage.update(); //update the canvas, stage is object of easeljs

});
function responsiveCanvas(target){
  $(canvas).each(function(e){

    var parentWidth = $(this).parent().outerWidth();
    var parentHeight =  $(this).parent().outerHeight();
    $(this).attr('width', parentWidth);
    $(this).attr('height', parentHeight);
    console.log(parentWidth);
  })

}

it will do all the job for you

why we dont set the width or the height via css or style? because it will stretch your canvas instead of make it into expecting size

Regular expression - starting and ending with a letter, accepting only letters, numbers and _

I'll take a stab at it:

/^[a-z](?:_?[a-z0-9]+)*$/i

Explained:

/
 ^           # match beginning of string
 [a-z]       # match a letter for the first char
 (?:         # start non-capture group
   _?          # match 0 or 1 '_'
   [a-z0-9]+   # match a letter or number, 1 or more times
 )*          # end non-capture group, match whole group 0 or more times
 $           # match end of string
/i           # case insensitive flag

The non-capture group takes care of a) not allowing two _'s (it forces at least one letter or number per group) and b) only allowing the last char to be a letter or number.

Some test strings:

"a": match
"_": fail
"zz": match
"a0": match
"A_": fail
"a0_b": match
"a__b": fail
"a_1_c": match

Mocking member variables of a class using Mockito

This is not possible if you can't change your code. But I like dependency injection and Mockito supports it:

public class First {    
    @Resource
    Second second;

    public First() {
        second = new Second();
    }

    public String doSecond() {
        return second.doSecond();
    }
}

Your test:

@RunWith(MockitoJUnitRunner.class)
public class YourTest {
   @Mock
   Second second;

   @InjectMocks
   First first = new First();

   public void testFirst(){
      when(second.doSecond()).thenReturn("Stubbed Second");
      assertEquals("Stubbed Second", first.doSecond());
   }
}

This is very nice and easy.

LaTeX: remove blank page after a \part or \chapter

I believe that in the book class all \part and \chapter are set to start on a recto page.

from book.cls:

\newcommand\part{%
  \if@openright
    \cleardoublepage
  \else
    \clearpage
  \fi
  \thispagestyle{plain}%
  \if@twocolumn
    \onecolumn
    \@tempswatrue
  \else
    \@tempswafalse
  \fi
  \null\vfil
  \secdef\@part\@spart}

you should be able to renew that command, and something similar for the \chapter.

HTML table with fixed headers?

This can be cleanly solved in four lines of code.

If you only care about modern browsers, a fixed header can be achieved much easier by using CSS transforms. Sounds odd, but works great:

HTML and CSS stay as-is.
No external JavaScript dependencies.
Four lines of code.
Works for all configurations (table-layout: fixed, etc.).

document.getElementById("wrap").addEventListener("scroll", function(){
   var translate = "translate(0,"+this.scrollTop+"px)";
   this.querySelector("thead").style.transform = translate;
});

Support for CSS transforms is widely available except for Internet Explorer 8-.

Here is the full example for reference:

_x000D_

document.getElementById("wrap").addEventListener("scroll",function(){_x000D_
   var translate = "translate(0,"+this.scrollTop+"px)";_x000D_

How to create many labels and textboxes dynamically depending on the value of an integer variable?

I would create a user control which holds a Label and a Text Box in it and simply create instances of that user control 'n' times. If you want to know a better way to do it and use properties to get access to the values of Label and Text Box from the user control, please let me know.

Simple way to do it would be:

int n = 4; // Or whatever value - n has to be global so that the event handler can access it

private void btnDisplay_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    TextBox[] textBoxes = new TextBox[n];
    Label[] labels = new Label[n];

    for (int i = 0; i < n; i++)
    {
        textBoxes[i] = new TextBox();
        // Here you can modify the value of the textbox which is at textBoxes[i]

        labels[i] = new Label();
        // Here you can modify the value of the label which is at labels[i]
    }

    // This adds the controls to the form (you will need to specify thier co-ordinates etc. first)
    for (int i = 0; i < n; i++)
    {
        this.Controls.Add(textBoxes[i]);
        this.Controls.Add(labels[i]);
    }
}

The code above assumes that you have a button btnDisplay and it has a onClick event assigned to btnDisplay_Click event handler. You also need to know the value of n and need a way of figuring out where to place all controls. Controls should have a width and height specified as well.

To do it using a User Control simply do this.

Okay, first of all go and create a new user control and put a text box and label in it.

Lets say they are called txtSomeTextBox and lblSomeLabel. In the code behind add this code:

public string GetTextBoxValue() 
{ 
    return this.txtSomeTextBox.Text; 
} 

public string GetLabelValue() 
{ 
    return this.lblSomeLabel.Text; 
} 

public void SetTextBoxValue(string newText) 
{ 
    this.txtSomeTextBox.Text = newText; 
} 

public void SetLabelValue(string newText) 
{ 
    this.lblSomeLabel.Text = newText; 
}

Now the code to generate the user control will look like this (MyUserControl is the name you have give to your user control):

private void btnDisplay_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    MyUserControl[] controls = new MyUserControl[n];

    for (int i = 0; i < n; i++)
    {
        controls[i] = new MyUserControl();

        controls[i].setTextBoxValue("some value to display in text");
        controls[i].setLabelValue("some value to display in label");
        // Now if you write controls[i].getTextBoxValue() it will return "some value to display in text" and controls[i].getLabelValue() will return "some value to display in label". These value will also be displayed in the user control.
    }

    // This adds the controls to the form (you will need to specify thier co-ordinates etc. first)
    for (int i = 0; i < n; i++)
    {
        this.Controls.Add(controls[i]);
    }
}

Of course you can create more methods in the usercontrol to access properties and set them. Or simply if you have to access a lot, just put in these two variables and you can access the textbox and label directly:

public TextBox myTextBox;
public Label myLabel;

In the constructor of the user control do this:

myTextBox = this.txtSomeTextBox;
myLabel = this.lblSomeLabel;

Then in your program if you want to modify the text value of either just do this.

control[i].myTextBox.Text = "some random text"; // Same applies to myLabel

Hope it helped :)

Escaping single quote in PHP when inserting into MySQL

You should do something like this to help you debug

$sql = "insert into blah values ('$myVar')";
echo $sql;

You will probably find that the single quote is escaped with a backslash in the working query. This might have been done automatically by PHP via the magic_quotes_gpc setting, or maybe you did it yourself in some other part of the code (addslashes and stripslashes might be functions to look for).

How to clear the cache in NetBeans

For NetBeans 8+ on Windows 10 there's a definitive bug with duplicate classes error which is being solved by cleaning the cache at C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Local\NetBeans\Cache.

Efficient way to remove keys with empty strings from a dict

If you want a full-featured, yet succinct approach to handling real-world data structures which are often nested, and can even contain cycles, I recommend looking at the remap utility from the boltons utility package.

After pip install boltons or copying iterutils.py into your project, just do:

from boltons.iterutils import remap

drop_falsey = lambda path, key, value: bool(value)
clean = remap(metadata, visit=drop_falsey)

This page has many more examples, including ones working with much larger objects from Github's API.

It's pure-Python, so it works everywhere, and is fully tested in Python 2.7 and 3.3+. Best of all, I wrote it for exactly cases like this, so if you find a case it doesn't handle, you can bug me to fix it right here.

What is use of c_str function In c++

c_str() converts a C++ string into a C-style string which is essentially a null terminated array of bytes. You use it when you want to pass a C++ string into a function that expects a C-style string (e.g. a lot of the Win32 API, POSIX style functions, etc).

How to get request url in a jQuery $.get/ajax request

Since jQuery.get is just a shorthand for jQuery.ajax, another way would be to use the latter one's context option, as stated in the documentation:

The this reference within all callbacks is the object in the context option passed to $.ajax in the settings; if context is not specified, this is a reference to the Ajax settings themselves.

So you would use

$.ajax('http://www.example.org', {
  dataType: 'xml',
  data: {'a':1,'b':2,'c':3},
  context: {
    url: 'http://www.example.org'
  }
}).done(function(xml) {alert(this.url});

Getting MAC Address

Python 2.5 includes an uuid implementation which (in at least one version) needs the mac address. You can import the mac finding function into your own code easily:

Form onSubmit determine which submit button was pressed

First Suggestion:

Create a Javascript Variable that will reference the button clicked. Lets call it buttonIndex

<input type="submit" onclick="buttonIndex=0;" name="save" value="Save" />
<input type="submit" onclick="buttonIndex=1;" name="saveAndAdd" value="Save and add another" />

Now, you can access that value. 0 means the save button was clicked, 1 means the saveAndAdd Button was clicked.

Second Suggestion

The way I would handle this is to create two JS functions that handle each of the two buttons.

First, make sure your form has a valid ID. For this example, I'll say the ID is "myForm"

change

<input type="submit" name="save" value="Save" />
<input type="submit" name="saveAndAdd" value="Save and add another" />

<input type="submit" onclick="submitFunc();return(false);" name="save" value="Save" />
<input type="submit" onclick="submitAndAddFunc();return(false);" name="saveAndAdd" value="Save and add

the return(false) will prevent your form submission from actually processing, and call your custom functions, where you can submit the form later on.

Then your functions will work something like this...

function submitFunc(){
    // Do some asyncrhnous stuff, that will later on submit the form
    if (okToSubmit) {
        document.getElementById('myForm').submit();
    }
}
function submitAndAddFunc(){
    // Do some asyncrhnous stuff, that will later on submit the form
    if (okToSubmit) {
        document.getElementById('myForm').submit();
    }
}

Login to remote site with PHP cURL

I had same question and I found this answer on this website.

And I changed it just a little bit (the curl_close at last line)

$username = 'myuser';
$password = 'mypass';
$loginUrl = 'http://www.example.com/login/';

//init curl
$ch = curl_init();

//Set the URL to work with
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $loginUrl);

// ENABLE HTTP POST
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POST, 1);

//Set the post parameters
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, 'user='.$username.'&pass='.$password);

//Handle cookies for the login
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_COOKIEJAR, 'cookie.txt');

//Setting CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER variable to 1 will force cURL
//not to print out the results of its query.
//Instead, it will return the results as a string return value
//from curl_exec() instead of the usual true/false.
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);

//execute the request (the login)
$store = curl_exec($ch);

//the login is now done and you can continue to get the
//protected content.

//set the URL to the protected file
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, 'http://www.example.com/protected/download.zip');

//execute the request
$content = curl_exec($ch);

curl_close($ch);

//save the data to disk
file_put_contents('~/download.zip', $content);

How to achieve function overloading in C?

In the sense you mean — no, you cannot.

How to work with string fields in a C struct?

I think this solution uses less code and is easy to understand even for newbie.

For string field in struct, you can use pointer and reassigning the string to that pointer will be straightforward and simpler.

Define definition of struct:

typedef struct {
  int number;
  char *name;
  char *address;
  char *birthdate;
  char gender;
} Patient;

Initialize variable with type of that struct:

Patient patient;
patient.number = 12345;
patient.address = "123/123 some road Rd.";
patient.birthdate = "2020/12/12";
patient.gender = "M";

It is that simple. Hope this answer helps many developers.

Single quotes vs. double quotes in Python

I like to use double quotes around strings that are used for interpolation or that are natural language messages, and single quotes for small symbol-like strings, but will break the rules if the strings contain quotes, or if I forget. I use triple double quotes for docstrings and raw string literals for regular expressions even if they aren't needed.

For example:

LIGHT_MESSAGES = {
    'English': "There are %(number_of_lights)s lights.",
    'Pirate':  "Arr! Thar be %(number_of_lights)s lights."
}

def lights_message(language, number_of_lights):
    """Return a language-appropriate string reporting the light count."""
    return LIGHT_MESSAGES[language] % locals()

def is_pirate(message):
    """Return True if the given message sounds piratical."""
    return re.search(r"(?i)(arr|avast|yohoho)!", message) is not None

Converting string to tuple without splitting characters

Have a look at the Python tutorial on tuples:

A special problem is the construction of tuples containing 0 or 1 items: the syntax has some extra quirks to accommodate these. Empty tuples are constructed by an empty pair of parentheses; a tuple with one item is constructed by following a value with a comma (it is not sufficient to enclose a single value in parentheses). Ugly, but effective. For example:
>>> empty = ()
>>> singleton = 'hello',    # <-- note trailing comma
>>> len(empty)
0
>>> len(singleton)
1
>>> singleton
('hello',)

If you put just a pair of parentheses around your string object, they will only turn that expression into an parenthesized expression (emphasis added):

A parenthesized expression list yields whatever that expression list yields: if the list contains at least one comma, it yields a tuple; otherwise, it yields the single expression that makes up the expression list.

An empty pair of parentheses yields an empty tuple object. Since tuples are immutable, the rules for literals apply (i.e., two occurrences of the empty tuple may or may not yield the same object).

Note that tuples are not formed by the parentheses, but rather by use of the comma operator. The exception is the empty tuple, for which parentheses are required — allowing unparenthesized “nothing” in expressions would cause ambiguities and allow common typos to pass uncaught.

That is (assuming Python 2.7),

a = 'Quattro TT'
print tuple(a)        # <-- you create a tuple from a sequence 
                      #     (which is a string)
print tuple([a])      # <-- you create a tuple from a sequence 
                      #     (which is a list containing a string)
print tuple(list(a))  # <-- you create a tuple from a sequence 
                      #     (which you create from a string)
print (a,)            # <-- you create a tuple containing the string
print (a)             # <-- it's just the string wrapped in parentheses

The output is as expected:

('Q', 'u', 'a', 't', 't', 'r', 'o', ' ', 'T', 'T')
('Quattro TT',)
('Q', 'u', 'a', 't', 't', 'r', 'o', ' ', 'T', 'T')
('Quattro TT',)
Quattro TT

To add some notes on the print statement. When you try to create a single-element tuple as part of a print statement in Python 2.7 (as in print (a,)) you need to use the parenthesized form, because the trailing comma of print a, would else be considered part of the print statement and thus cause the newline to be suppressed from the output and not a tuple being created:

A '\n' character is written at the end, unless the print statement ends with a comma.

In Python 3.x most of the above usages in the examples would actually raise SyntaxError, because in Python 3 print turns into a function (you need to add an extra pair of parentheses). But especially this may cause confusion:

print (a,)            # <-- this prints a tuple containing `a` in Python 2.x
                      #     but only `a` in Python 3.x

Difference between opening a file in binary vs text

The link you gave does actually describe the differences, but it's buried at the bottom of the page:

http://www.cplusplus.com/reference/cstdio/fopen/

Text files are files containing sequences of lines of text. Depending on the environment where the application runs, some special character conversion may occur in input/output operations in text mode to adapt them to a system-specific text file format. Although on some environments no conversions occur and both text files and binary files are treated the same way, using the appropriate mode improves portability.

The conversion could be to normalize \r\n to \n (or vice-versa), or maybe ignoring characters beyond 0x7F (a-la 'text mode' in FTP). Personally I'd open everything in binary-mode and use a good text-encoding library for dealing with text.

Correct way of passing 2 dimensional array into a function

How do I pass data between Activities in Android application?

You can use Intent

Intent mIntent = new Intent(FirstActivity.this, SecondActivity.class);
mIntent.putExtra("data", data);
startActivity(mIntent);

Another way could be using singleton pattern also:

public class DataHolder {

 private static DataHolder dataHolder;
 private List<Model> dataList;

 public void setDataList(List<Model>dataList) {
    this.dataList = dataList;
 }

 public List<Model> getDataList() {
    return dataList;
 }

 public synchronized static DataHolder getInstance() {
    if (dataHolder == null) {
       dataHolder = new DataHolder();
    }
    return dataHolder;
 }
}

From your FirstActivity

private List<Model> dataList = new ArrayList<>();
DataHolder.getInstance().setDataList(dataList);

On SecondActivity

private List<Model> dataList = DataHolder.getInstance().getDataList();

What is the difference between & and && in Java?

& <-- verifies both operands
&& <-- stops evaluating if the first operand evaluates to false since the result will be false

(x != 0) & (1/x > 1) <-- this means evaluate (x != 0) then evaluate (1/x > 1) then do the &. the problem is that for x=0 this will throw an exception.

(x != 0) && (1/x > 1) <-- this means evaluate (x != 0) and only if this is true then evaluate (1/x > 1) so if you have x=0 then this is perfectly safe and won't throw any exception if (x != 0) evaluates to false the whole thing directly evaluates to false without evaluating the (1/x > 1).

EDIT:

exprA | exprB <-- this means evaluate exprA then evaluate exprB then do the |.

exprA || exprB <-- this means evaluate exprA and only if this is false then evaluate exprB and do the ||.

Changing default encoding of Python?

Here is a simpler method (hack) that gives you back the setdefaultencoding() function that was deleted from sys:

import sys
# sys.setdefaultencoding() does not exist, here!
reload(sys)  # Reload does the trick!
sys.setdefaultencoding('UTF8')

(Note for Python 3.4+: reload() is in the importlib library.)

This is not a safe thing to do, though: this is obviously a hack, since sys.setdefaultencoding() is purposely removed from sys when Python starts. Reenabling it and changing the default encoding can break code that relies on ASCII being the default (this code can be third-party, which would generally make fixing it impossible or dangerous).

Modify XML existing content in C#

Forming a XML file

XmlTextWriter xmlw = new XmlTextWriter(@"C:\WINDOWS\Temp\exm.xml",System.Text.Encoding.UTF8);
xmlw.WriteStartDocument();            
xmlw.WriteStartElement("examtimes");
xmlw.WriteStartElement("Starttime");
xmlw.WriteString(DateTime.Now.AddHours(0).ToString());
xmlw.WriteEndElement();
xmlw.WriteStartElement("Changetime");
xmlw.WriteString(DateTime.Now.AddHours(0).ToString());
xmlw.WriteEndElement();
xmlw.WriteStartElement("Endtime");
xmlw.WriteString(DateTime.Now.AddHours(1).ToString());
xmlw.WriteEndElement();
xmlw.WriteEndElement();
xmlw.WriteEndDocument();  
xmlw.Close();

To edit the Xml nodes use the below code

XmlDocument doc = new XmlDocument(); 
doc.Load(@"C:\WINDOWS\Temp\exm.xml"); 
XmlNode root = doc.DocumentElement["Starttime"]; 
root.FirstChild.InnerText = "First"; 
XmlNode root1 = doc.DocumentElement["Changetime"]; 
root1.FirstChild.InnerText = "Second"; 
doc.Save(@"C:\WINDOWS\Temp\exm.xml");

Try this. It's C# code.

What is the purpose of the : (colon) GNU Bash builtin?

A useful application for : is if you're only interested in using parameter expansions for their side-effects rather than actually passing their result to a command. In that case you use the PE as an argument to either : or false depending upon whether you want an exit status of 0 or 1. An example might be : "${var:=$1}". Since : is a builtin it should be pretty fast.

Get fragment (value after hash '#') from a URL in php

A) already have url with #hash in PHP? Easy! Just parse it out !

if( strpos( $url, "#" ) === false ) echo "NO HASH !";
   else echo "HASH IS: #".explode( "#", $url )[1]; // arrays are indexed from 0

Or in "old" PHP you must pre-store the exploded to access the array:

$exploded_url = explode( "#", $url ); $exploded_url[1];

B) You want to get a #hash by sending a form to PHP?
=> Use some JavaScript MAGIC! (To pre-process the form)

var forms = document.getElementsByTagName('form'); //get all forms on the site
for (var i = 0; i < forms.length; i++) { //to each form...
    forms[i].addEventListener( // add a "listener"
        'submit', // for an on-submit "event"
        function () { //add a submit pre-processing function:
            var input_name = "fragment"; // name form will use to send the fragment
            // Try search whether we already done this or not
            // in current form, find every <input ... name="fragment" ...>
            var hiddens = form.querySelectorAll('[name="' + input_name + '"]');
            if (hiddens.length < 1) { // if not there yet
                //create an extra input element
                var hidden = document.createElement("input");
                //set it to hidden so it doesn't break view 
                hidden.setAttribute('type', 'hidden');
                //set a name to get by it in PHP
                hidden.setAttribute('name', input_name);
                this.appendChild(hidden); //append it to the current form
            } else {
                var hidden = hiddens[0]; // use an existing one if already there
            }

            //set a value of #HASH - EVERY TIME, so we get the MOST RECENT #hash :)
            hidden.setAttribute('value', window.location.hash);
        }
    );
}

Depending on your form's method attribute you get this hash in PHP by:
$_GET['fragment'] or $_POST['fragment']

Possible returns: 1. ""[empty string] (no hash) 2. whole hash INCLUDING the #[hash] sign (because we've used the window.location.hash in JavaScript which just works that way :) )

C) You want to get the #hash in PHP JUST from requested URL?

YOU CAN'T !

...(not while considering regular HTTP requests)...

...Hope this helped :)

How to specify the current directory as path in VBA?

I thought I had misunderstood but I was right. In this scenario, it will be ActiveWorkbook.Path

But the main issue was not here. The problem was with these 2 lines of code

strFile = Dir(strPath & "*.csv")

Which should have written as

strFile = Dir(strPath & "\*.csv")

and

With .QueryTables.Add(Connection:="TEXT;" & strPath & strFile, _

Which should have written as

With .QueryTables.Add(Connection:="TEXT;" & strPath & "\" & strFile, _

Warning: Each child in an array or iterator should have a unique "key" prop. Check the render method of `ListView`

This warning comes when you don't add a key to your list items.As per react js Docs -

Keys help React identify which items have changed, are added, or are removed. Keys should be given to the elements inside the array to give the elements a stable identity:

const numbers = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5];
const listItems = numbers.map((number) =>
  <li key={number.toString()}>
    {number}
  </li>
);

The best way to pick a key is to use a string that uniquely identifies a list item among its siblings. Most often you would use IDs from your data as keys:

const todoItems = todos.map((todo) =>
  <li key={todo.id}>
    {todo.text}
  </li>
);

When you don’t have stable IDs for rendered items, you may use the item index as a key as a last resort

const todoItems = todos.map((todo, index) =>
  // Only do this if items have no stable IDs
  <li key={index}>
    {todo.text}
  </li>
);

SHA512 vs. Blowfish and Bcrypt

Blowfish is not a hashing algorithm. It's an encryption algorithm. What that means is that you can encrypt something using blowfish, and then later on you can decrypt it back to plain text.

SHA512 is a hashing algorithm. That means that (in theory) once you hash the input you can't get the original input back again.

They're 2 different things, designed to be used for different tasks. There is no 'correct' answer to "is blowfish better than SHA512?" You might as well ask "are apples better than kangaroos?"

theString.replace(/^\/+|\/+$/g, '')

To handle both slashes and backslashes, replace instances of \/ with [\\/]

What is the difference between window, screen, and document in Javascript?

Briefly, with more detail below,

window is the execution context and global object for that context's JavaScript
document contains the DOM, initialized by parsing HTML
screen describes the physical display's full screen

See W3C and Mozilla references for details about these objects. The most basic relationship among the three is that each browser tab has its own window, and a window has window.document and window.screen properties. The browser tab's window is the global context, so document and screen refer to window.document and window.screen. More details about the three objects are below, following Flanagan's JavaScript: Definitive Guide.

`window`

Each browser tab has its own top-level window object. Each <iframe> (and deprecated <frame>) element has its own window object too, nested within a parent window. Each of these windows gets its own separate global object. window.window always refers to window, but window.parent and window.top might refer to enclosing windows, giving access to other execution contexts. In addition to document and screen described below, window properties include

setTimeout() and setInterval() binding event handlers to a timer
location giving the current URL
history with methods back() and forward() giving the tab's mutable history
navigator describing the browser software

`document`

Each window object has a document object to be rendered. These objects get confused in part because HTML elements are added to the global object when assigned a unique id. E.g., in the HTML snippet

<body>
  <p id="holyCow"> This is the first paragraph.</p>
</body>

the paragraph element can be referenced by any of the following:

window.holyCow or window["holyCow"]
document.getElementById("holyCow")
document.querySelector("#holyCow")
document.body.firstChild
document.body.children[0]

`screen`

The window object also has a screen object with properties describing the physical display:

screen properties width and height are the full screen
screen properties availWidth and availHeight omit the toolbar

The portion of a screen displaying the rendered document is the viewport in JavaScript, which is potentially confusing because we call an application's portion of the screen a window when talking about interactions with the operating system. The getBoundingClientRect() method of any document element will return an object with top, left, bottom, and right properties describing the location of the element in the viewport.

How do I get the current Date/time in DD/MM/YYYY HH:MM format?

For date:

#!/usr/bin/ruby -w

date = Time.new
#set 'date' equal to the current date/time. 

date = date.day.to_s + "/" + date.month.to_s + "/" + date.year.to_s
#Without this it will output 2015-01-10 11:33:05 +0000; this formats it to display DD/MM/YYYY

puts date
#output the date

The above will display, for example, 10/01/15

And for time

time = Time.new
#set 'time' equal to the current time. 

time = time.hour.to_s + ":" + time.min.to_s
#Without this it will output 2015-01-10 11:33:05 +0000; this formats it to display hour and           minute

puts time
#output the time

The above will display, for example, 11:33

Then to put it together, add to the end:

puts date + " " + time

Measuring execution time of a function in C++

It is a very easy to use method in C++11.

We can use std::chrono::high_resolution_clock from header

We can write a method to print the method execution time in a much readable form.

For example, to find the all the prime numbers between 1 and 100 million, it takes approximately 1 minute and 40 seconds. So the execution time get printed as:

Execution Time: 1 Minutes, 40 Seconds, 715 MicroSeconds, 715000 NanoSeconds

The code is here:

#include <iostream>
#include <chrono>

using namespace std;
using namespace std::chrono;

typedef high_resolution_clock Clock;
typedef Clock::time_point ClockTime;

void findPrime(long n, string file);
void printExecutionTime(ClockTime start_time, ClockTime end_time);

int main()
{
    long n = long(1E+8);  // N = 100 million

    ClockTime start_time = Clock::now();

    // Write all the prime numbers from 1 to N to the file "prime.txt"
    findPrime(n, "C:\\prime.txt"); 

    ClockTime end_time = Clock::now();

    printExecutionTime(start_time, end_time);
}

void printExecutionTime(ClockTime start_time, ClockTime end_time)
{
    auto execution_time_ns = duration_cast<nanoseconds>(end_time - start_time).count();
    auto execution_time_ms = duration_cast<microseconds>(end_time - start_time).count();
    auto execution_time_sec = duration_cast<seconds>(end_time - start_time).count();
    auto execution_time_min = duration_cast<minutes>(end_time - start_time).count();
    auto execution_time_hour = duration_cast<hours>(end_time - start_time).count();

    cout << "\nExecution Time: ";
    if(execution_time_hour > 0)
    cout << "" << execution_time_hour << " Hours, ";
    if(execution_time_min > 0)
    cout << "" << execution_time_min % 60 << " Minutes, ";
    if(execution_time_sec > 0)
    cout << "" << execution_time_sec % 60 << " Seconds, ";
    if(execution_time_ms > 0)
    cout << "" << execution_time_ms % long(1E+3) << " MicroSeconds, ";
    if(execution_time_ns > 0)
    cout << "" << execution_time_ns % long(1E+6) << " NanoSeconds, ";
}

Show two digits after decimal point in c++

How do I create a dictionary with keys from a list and values defaulting to (say) zero?

dict((el,0) for el in a) will work well.

Python 2.7 and above also support dict comprehensions. That syntax is {el:0 for el in a}.

How to list files in an android directory?

I just discovered that:

new File("/sdcard/").listFiles() returns null if you do not have:

set in your AndroidManifest.xml file.

Plot two graphs in same plot in R

If you are using base graphics (i.e. not lattice/ grid graphics), then you can mimic MATLAB's hold on feature by using the points/lines/polygons functions to add additional details to your plots without starting a new plot. In the case of a multiplot layout, you can use par(mfg=...) to pick which plot you add things to.

Check if a JavaScript string is a URL

I can't comment on the post that is the closest #5717133, but below is the way I figured out how to get @tom-gullen regex working.

/^(https?:\/\/)?((([a-z\d]([a-z\d-]*[a-z\d])*)\.)+[a-z]{2,}|((\d{1,3}\.){3}\d{1,3}))(\:\d+)?(\/[-a-z\d%_.~+]*)*(\?[;&a-z\d%_.~+=-]*)?(\#[-a-z\d_]*)?$/i

Python set to list

This will work:

>>> t = [1,1,2,2,3,3,4,5]
>>> print list(set(t))
[1,2,3,4,5]

However, if you have used "list" or "set" as a variable name you will get the:

TypeError: 'set' object is not callable

eg:

>>> set = [1,1,2,2,3,3,4,5]
>>> print list(set(set))
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
TypeError: 'list' object is not callable

Same error will occur if you have used "list" as a variable name.

Performance of FOR vs FOREACH in PHP

My personal opinion is to use what makes sense in the context. Personally I almost never use for for array traversal. I use it for other types of iteration, but foreach is just too easy... The time difference is going to be minimal in most cases.

The big thing to watch for is:

for ($i = 0; $i < count($array); $i++) {

That's an expensive loop, since it calls count on every single iteration. So long as you're not doing that, I don't think it really matters...

As for the reference making a difference, PHP uses copy-on-write, so if you don't write to the array, there will be relatively little overhead while looping. However, if you start modifying the array within the array, that's where you'll start seeing differences between them (since one will need to copy the entire array, and the reference can just modify inline)...

As for the iterators, foreach is equivalent to:

$it->rewind();
while ($it->valid()) {
    $key = $it->key();     // If using the $key => $value syntax
    $value = $it->current();

    // Contents of loop in here

    $it->next();
}

As far as there being faster ways to iterate, it really depends on the problem. But I really need to ask, why? I understand wanting to make things more efficient, but I think you're wasting your time for a micro-optimization. Remember, Premature Optimization Is The Root Of All Evil...

Edit: Based upon the comment, I decided to do a quick benchmark run...

$a = array();
for ($i = 0; $i < 10000; $i++) {
    $a[] = $i;
}

$start = microtime(true);
foreach ($a as $k => $v) {
    $a[$k] = $v + 1;
}
echo "Completed in ", microtime(true) - $start, " Seconds\n";

$start = microtime(true);
foreach ($a as $k => &$v) {
    $v = $v + 1;
}
echo "Completed in ", microtime(true) - $start, " Seconds\n";

$start = microtime(true);
foreach ($a as $k => $v) {}
echo "Completed in ", microtime(true) - $start, " Seconds\n";

$start = microtime(true);
foreach ($a as $k => &$v) {}    
echo "Completed in ", microtime(true) - $start, " Seconds\n";

And the results:

Completed in 0.0073502063751221 Seconds
Completed in 0.0019769668579102 Seconds
Completed in 0.0011849403381348 Seconds
Completed in 0.00111985206604 Seconds

So if you're modifying the array in the loop, it's several times faster to use references...

And the overhead for just the reference is actually less than copying the array (this is on 5.3.2)... So it appears (on 5.3.2 at least) as if references are significantly faster...

How to find duplicate records in PostgreSQL

You can join to the same table on the fields that would be duplicated and then anti-join on the id field. Select the id field from the first table alias (tn1) and then use the array_agg function on the id field of the second table alias. Finally, for the array_agg function to work properly, you will group the results by the tn1.id field. This will produce a result set that contains the the id of a record and an array of all the id's that fit the join conditions.

select tn1.id,
       array_agg(tn2.id) as duplicate_entries, 
from table_name tn1 join table_name tn2 on 
    tn1.year = tn2.year 
    and tn1.sid = tn2.sid 
    and tn1.user_id = tn2.user_id 
    and tn1.cid = tn2.cid
    and tn1.id <> tn2.id
group by tn1.id;

Obviously, id's that will be in the duplicate_entries array for one id, will also have their own entries in the result set. You will have to use this result set to decide which id you want to become the source of 'truth.' The one record that shouldn't get deleted. Maybe you could do something like this:

with dupe_set as (
select tn1.id,
       array_agg(tn2.id) as duplicate_entries, 
from table_name tn1 join table_name tn2 on 
    tn1.year = tn2.year 
    and tn1.sid = tn2.sid 
    and tn1.user_id = tn2.user_id 
    and tn1.cid = tn2.cid
    and tn1.id <> tn2.id
group by tn1.id
order by tn1.id asc)
select ds.id from dupe_set ds where not exists 
 (select de from unnest(ds.duplicate_entries) as de where de < ds.id)

Selects the lowest number ID's that have duplicates (assuming the ID is increasing int PK). These would be the ID's that you would keep around.

Bootstrap onClick button event

There is no show event in js - you need to bind your button either to the click event:

$('#id').on('click', function (e) {

     //your awesome code here

})

Mind that if your button is inside a form, you may prefer to bind the whole form to the submit event.

How do I sort a Set to a List in Java?

There's no single method to do that. Use this:

@SuppressWarnings("unchecked")
public static <T extends Comparable> List<T> asSortedList(Collection<T> collection) {
  T[] array = collection.toArray(
    (T[])new Comparable[collection.size()]);
  Arrays.sort(array);
  return Arrays.asList(array);
}

How to add a button to UINavigationBar?

Why not use the following: (from Draw custom Back button on iPhone Navigation Bar)

// Add left
UINavigationItem *previousItem = [[UINavigationItem alloc] initWithTitle:@"Back title"];
UINavigationItem *currentItem = [[UINavigationItem alloc] initWithTitle:@"Main Title"];
[self.navigationController.navigationBar setItems:[NSArray arrayWithObjects:previousItem, currentItem, nil] animated:YES];

// set the delegate to self
[self.navigationController.navigationBar setDelegate:self];

Difference between x86, x32, and x64 architectures?

x86 means Intel 80x86 compatible. This used to include the 8086, a 16-bit only processor. Nowadays it roughly means any CPU with a 32-bit Intel compatible instruction set (usually anything from Pentium onwards). Never read x32 being used.

x64 means a CPU that is x86 compatible but has a 64-bit mode as well (most often the 64-bit instruction set as introduced by AMD is meant; Intel's idea of a 64-bit mode was totally stupid and luckily Intel admitted that and is now using AMDs variant).

So most of the time you can simplify it this way: x86 is Intel compatible in 32-bit mode, x64 is Intel compatible in 64-bit mode.

Output a NULL cell value in Excel

I've been frustrated by this problem as well. Find/Replace can be helpful though, because if you don't put anything in the "replace" field it will replace with an -actual- NULL. So the steps would be something along the lines of:

1: Place some unique string in your formula in place of the NULL output (i like to use a password-like string)

2: Run your formula

3: Open Find/Replace, and fill in the unique string as the search value. Leave "replace with" blank

4: Replace All

Obviously, this has limitations. It only works when the context allows you to do a find/replace, so for more dynamic formulas this won't help much. But, I figured I'd put it up here anyway.

Upload Image using POST form data in Python-requests

How can I calculate the time between 2 Dates in typescript

This is how it should be done in typescript:

(new Date()).valueOf() - (new Date("2013-02-20T12:01:04.753Z")).valueOf()

Better readability:

      var eventStartTime = new Date(event.startTime);
      var eventEndTime = new Date(event.endTime);
      var duration = eventEndTime.valueOf() - eventStartTime.valueOf();

Subtract a value from every number in a list in Python?

SVG Positioning

There is a shorter alternative to the previous answer. SVG Elements can also be grouped by nesting svg elements:

<svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"
  xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">
  <svg x="10">
    <rect x="10" y="10" height="100" width="100" style="stroke:#ff0000;fill: #0000ff"/>
  </svg>
  <svg x="200">
    <rect x="10" y="10" height="100" width="100" style="stroke:#009900;fill: #00cc00"/>
  </svg>
</svg>

The two rectangles are identical (apart from the colors), but the parent svg elements have different x values.
