Oracle REPLACE() function isn't handling carriage-returns & line-feeds

Another way is to use TRANSLATE:

TRANSLATE (col_name, 'x'||CHR(10)||CHR(13), 'x')

The 'x' is any character that you don't want translated to null, because TRANSLATE doesn't work right if the 3rd parameter is null.

Use component from another module

One big and great approach is to load the module from a NgModuleFactory, you can load a module inside another module by calling this:

constructor(private loader: NgModuleFactoryLoader, private injector: Injector) {}

loadModule(path: string) {
    this.loader.load(path).then((moduleFactory: NgModuleFactory<any>) => {
        const entryComponent = (<any>moduleFactory.moduleType).entry;
        const moduleRef = moduleFactory.create(this.injector);
        const compFactory = moduleRef.componentFactoryResolver.resolveComponentFactory(entryComponent);
        this.lazyOutlet.createComponent(compFactory);
    });
}

I got this from here.

PHP CSV string to array

If you have carriage return/line feeds within columns, str_getcsv will not work.

Try https://github.com/synappnz/php-csv

Use:

include "csv.php";
$csv = new csv(file_get_contents("filename.csv"));
$rows = $csv->rows();
foreach ($rows as $row)
{
  // do something with $row
}

How do I get this javascript to run every second?

You can use setTimeout to run the function/command once or setInterval to run the function/command at specified intervals.

var a = setTimeout("alert('run just one time')",500);
var b = setInterval("alert('run each 3 seconds')",3000);

//To abort the interval you can use this:
clearInterval(b);

Creating new table with SELECT INTO in SQL

The syntax for creating a new table is

CREATE TABLE new_table
AS
SELECT *
  FROM old_table

This will create a new table named new_table with whatever columns are in old_table and copy the data over. It will not replicate the constraints on the table, it won't replicate the storage attributes, and it won't replicate any triggers defined on the table.

SELECT INTO is used in PL/SQL when you want to fetch data from a table into a local variable in your PL/SQL block.

convert xml to java object using jaxb (unmarshal)

Tests

On the Tests class we will add an @XmlRootElement annotation. Doing this will let your JAXB implementation know that when a document starts with this element that it should instantiate this class. JAXB is configuration by exception, this means you only need to add annotations where your mapping differs from the default. Since the testData property differs from the default mapping we will use the @XmlElement annotation. You may find the following tutorial helpful: http://wiki.eclipse.org/EclipseLink/Examples/MOXy/GettingStarted

package forum11221136;

import javax.xml.bind.annotation.*;

@XmlRootElement
public class Tests {

    TestData testData;

    @XmlElement(name="test-data")
    public TestData getTestData() {
        return testData;
    }

    public void setTestData(TestData testData) {
        this.testData = testData;
    }

}

TestData

On this class I used the @XmlType annotation to specify the order in which the elements should be ordered in. I added a testData property that appeared to be missing. I also used an @XmlElement annotation for the same reason as in the Tests class.

package forum11221136;

import java.util.List;
import javax.xml.bind.annotation.*;

@XmlType(propOrder={"title", "book", "count", "testData"})
public class TestData {
    String title;
    String book;
    String count;
    List<TestData> testData;

    public String getTitle() {
        return title;
    }
    public void setTitle(String title) {
        this.title = title;
    }
    public String getBook() {
        return book;
    }
    public void setBook(String book) {
        this.book = book;
    }
    public String getCount() {
        return count;
    }
    public void setCount(String count) {
        this.count = count;
    }
    @XmlElement(name="test-data")
    public List<TestData> getTestData() {
        return testData;
    }
    public void setTestData(List<TestData> testData) {
        this.testData = testData;
    }
}

Demo

Below is an example of how to use the JAXB APIs to read (unmarshal) the XML and populate your domain model and then write (marshal) the result back to XML.

package forum11221136;

import java.io.File;
import javax.xml.bind.*;

public class Demo {

    public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
        JAXBContext jc = JAXBContext.newInstance(Tests.class);

        Unmarshaller unmarshaller = jc.createUnmarshaller();
        File xml = new File("src/forum11221136/input.xml");
        Tests tests = (Tests) unmarshaller.unmarshal(xml);

        Marshaller marshaller = jc.createMarshaller();
        marshaller.setProperty(Marshaller.JAXB_FORMATTED_OUTPUT, true);
        marshaller.marshal(tests, System.out);
    }

}

horizontal scrollbar on top and bottom of table

There is one way to achieve this that I did not see anybody mentioning here.

By rotating the parent container by 180 degrees and the child-container again by 180 degrees the scrollbar will be shown at top

.parent {
  transform: rotateX(180deg);
  overflow-x: auto;
} 
.child {
  transform: rotateX(180deg);
}

For reference see the issue in the w3c repository.

jQuery AJAX file upload PHP

You need a script that runs on the server to move the file to the uploads directory. The jQuery ajax method (running in the browser) sends the form data to the server, then a script on the server handles the upload. Here's an example using PHP.

Your HTML is fine, but update your JS jQuery script to look like this:

$('#upload').on('click', function() {
    var file_data = $('#sortpicture').prop('files')[0];   
    var form_data = new FormData();                  
    form_data.append('file', file_data);
    alert(form_data);                             
    $.ajax({
        url: 'upload.php', // point to server-side PHP script 
        dataType: 'text',  // what to expect back from the PHP script, if anything
        cache: false,
        contentType: false,
        processData: false,
        data: form_data,                         
        type: 'post',
        success: function(php_script_response){
            alert(php_script_response); // display response from the PHP script, if any
        }
     });
});

And now for the server-side script, using PHP in this case.

upload.php: a PHP script that runs on the server and directs the file to the uploads directory:

<?php

    if ( 0 < $_FILES['file']['error'] ) {
        echo 'Error: ' . $_FILES['file']['error'] . '<br>';
    }
    else {
        move_uploaded_file($_FILES['file']['tmp_name'], 'uploads/' . $_FILES['file']['name']);
    }

?>

Also, a couple things about the destination directory:

  1. Make sure you have the correct server path, i.e., starting at the PHP script location what is the path to the uploads directory, and
  2. Make sure it's writeable.

And a little bit about the PHP function move_uploaded_file, used in the upload.php script:

move_uploaded_file(

    // this is where the file is temporarily stored on the server when uploaded
    // do not change this
    $_FILES['file']['tmp_name'],

    // this is where you want to put the file and what you want to name it
    // in this case we are putting in a directory called "uploads"
    // and giving it the original filename
    'uploads/' . $_FILES['file']['name']
);

$_FILES['file']['name'] is the name of the file as it is uploaded. You don't have to use that. You can give the file any name (server filesystem compatible) you want:

move_uploaded_file(
    $_FILES['file']['tmp_name'],
    'uploads/my_new_filename.whatever'
);

And finally, be aware of your PHP upload_max_filesize AND post_max_size configuration values, and be sure your test files do not exceed either. Here's some help how you check PHP configuration and how you set max filesize and post settings.

How to use jQuery to get the current value of a file input field

You need to use val rather than value.

Printing with sed or awk a line following a matching pattern

I needed to print ALL lines after the pattern ( ok Ed, REGEX ), so I settled on this one:

sed -n '/pattern/,$p' # prints all lines after ( and including ) the pattern

But since I wanted to print all the lines AFTER ( and exclude the pattern )

sed -n '/pattern/,$p' | tail -n+2  # all lines after first occurrence of pattern

I suppose in your case you can add a head -1 at the end

sed -n '/pattern/,$p' | tail -n+2 | head -1 # prints line after pattern

Add item to array in VBScript

this some kind of late but anyway and it is also somewhat tricky

 dim arrr 
  arr= array ("Apples", "Oranges", "Bananas")
 dim temp_var 
 temp_var = join (arr , "||") ' some character which will not occur is regular strings 
 if len(temp_var) > 0 then 
  temp_var = temp_var&"||Watermelons" 
end if 
arr  = split(temp_var , "||") ' here you got new elemet in array ' 
for each x in arr
response.write(x & "<br />")
next' 

review and tell me if this can work or initially you save all data in string and later split for array

Echo equivalent in PowerShell for script testing

It should also be mentioned, that Set-PSDebug is similar to the old-school echo on batch command:

Set-PSDebug -Trace 1

This command will result in showing every line of the executing script:

When the Trace parameter has a value of 1, each line of script is traced as it runs. When the parameter has a value of 2, variable assignments, function calls, and script calls are also traced. If the Step parameter is specified, you're prompted before each line of the script runs.

"Use the new keyword if hiding was intended" warning

In the code below, Class A implements the interface IShow and implements its method ShowData. Class B inherits Class A. In order to use ShowData method in Class B, we have to use keyword new in the ShowData method in order to hide the base class Class A method and use override keyword in order to extend the method.

interface IShow
{
    protected void ShowData();
}

class A : IShow

git stash -> merge stashed change with current changes

tl;dr

Run git add first.


I just discovered that if your uncommitted changes are added to the index (i.e. "staged", using git add ...), then git stash apply (and, presumably, git stash pop) will actually do a proper merge. If there are no conflicts, you're golden. If not, resolve them as usual with git mergetool, or manually with an editor.

To be clear, this is the process I'm talking about:

mkdir test-repo && cd test-repo && git init
echo test > test.txt
git add test.txt && git commit -m "Initial version"

# here's the interesting part:

# make a local change and stash it:
echo test2 > test.txt
git stash

# make a different local change:
echo test3 > test.txt

# try to apply the previous changes:
git stash apply
# git complains "Cannot apply to a dirty working tree, please stage your changes"

# add "test3" changes to the index, then re-try the stash:
git add test.txt
git stash apply
# git says: "Auto-merging test.txt"
# git says: "CONFLICT (content): Merge conflict in test.txt"

... which is probably what you're looking for.

What are bitwise shift (bit-shift) operators and how do they work?

The bit shifting operators do exactly what their name implies. They shift bits. Here's a brief (or not-so-brief) introduction to the different shift operators.

The Operators

  • >> is the arithmetic (or signed) right shift operator.
  • >>> is the logical (or unsigned) right shift operator.
  • << is the left shift operator, and meets the needs of both logical and arithmetic shifts.

All of these operators can be applied to integer values (int, long, possibly short and byte or char). In some languages, applying the shift operators to any datatype smaller than int automatically resizes the operand to be an int.

Note that <<< is not an operator, because it would be redundant.

Also note that C and C++ do not distinguish between the right shift operators. They provide only the >> operator, and the right-shifting behavior is implementation defined for signed types. The rest of the answer uses the C# / Java operators.

(In all mainstream C and C++ implementations including GCC and Clang/LLVM, >> on signed types is arithmetic. Some code assumes this, but it isn't something the standard guarantees. It's not undefined, though; the standard requires implementations to define it one way or another. However, left shifts of negative signed numbers is undefined behaviour (signed integer overflow). So unless you need arithmetic right shift, it's usually a good idea to do your bit-shifting with unsigned types.)


Left shift (<<)

Integers are stored, in memory, as a series of bits. For example, the number 6 stored as a 32-bit int would be:

00000000 00000000 00000000 00000110

Shifting this bit pattern to the left one position (6 << 1) would result in the number 12:

00000000 00000000 00000000 00001100

As you can see, the digits have shifted to the left by one position, and the last digit on the right is filled with a zero. You might also note that shifting left is equivalent to multiplication by powers of 2. So 6 << 1 is equivalent to 6 * 2, and 6 << 3 is equivalent to 6 * 8. A good optimizing compiler will replace multiplications with shifts when possible.

Non-circular shifting

Please note that these are not circular shifts. Shifting this value to the left by one position (3,758,096,384 << 1):

11100000 00000000 00000000 00000000

results in 3,221,225,472:

11000000 00000000 00000000 00000000

The digit that gets shifted "off the end" is lost. It does not wrap around.


Logical right shift (>>>)

A logical right shift is the converse to the left shift. Rather than moving bits to the left, they simply move to the right. For example, shifting the number 12:

00000000 00000000 00000000 00001100

to the right by one position (12 >>> 1) will get back our original 6:

00000000 00000000 00000000 00000110

So we see that shifting to the right is equivalent to division by powers of 2.

Lost bits are gone

However, a shift cannot reclaim "lost" bits. For example, if we shift this pattern:

00111000 00000000 00000000 00000110

to the left 4 positions (939,524,102 << 4), we get 2,147,483,744:

10000000 00000000 00000000 01100000

and then shifting back ((939,524,102 << 4) >>> 4) we get 134,217,734:

00001000 00000000 00000000 00000110

We cannot get back our original value once we have lost bits.


Arithmetic right shift (>>)

The arithmetic right shift is exactly like the logical right shift, except instead of padding with zero, it pads with the most significant bit. This is because the most significant bit is the sign bit, or the bit that distinguishes positive and negative numbers. By padding with the most significant bit, the arithmetic right shift is sign-preserving.

For example, if we interpret this bit pattern as a negative number:

10000000 00000000 00000000 01100000

we have the number -2,147,483,552. Shifting this to the right 4 positions with the arithmetic shift (-2,147,483,552 >> 4) would give us:

11111000 00000000 00000000 00000110

or the number -134,217,722.

So we see that we have preserved the sign of our negative numbers by using the arithmetic right shift, rather than the logical right shift. And once again, we see that we are performing division by powers of 2.

Split String by delimiter position using oracle SQL

You want to use regexp_substr() for this. This should work for your example:

select regexp_substr(val, '[^/]+/[^/]+', 1, 1) as part1,
       regexp_substr(val, '[^/]+$', 1, 1) as part2
from (select 'F/P/O' as val from dual) t

Here, by the way, is the SQL Fiddle.

Oops. I missed the part of the question where it says the last delimiter. For that, we can use regex_replace() for the first part:

select regexp_replace(val, '/[^/]+$', '', 1, 1) as part1,
       regexp_substr(val, '[^/]+$', 1, 1) as part2
from (select 'F/P/O' as val from dual) t

And here is this corresponding SQL Fiddle.

Difference between VARCHAR2(10 CHAR) and NVARCHAR2(10)

I don't think answer from Vincent Malgrat is correct. When NVARCHAR2 was introduced long time ago nobody was even talking about Unicode.

Initially Oracle provided VARCHAR2 and NVARCHAR2 to support localization. Common data (include PL/SQL) was hold in VARCHAR2, most likely US7ASCII these days. Then you could apply NLS_NCHAR_CHARACTERSET individually (e.g. WE8ISO8859P1) for each of your customer in any country without touching the common part of your application.

Nowadays character set AL32UTF8 is the default which fully supports Unicode. In my opinion today there is no reason anymore to use NLS_NCHAR_CHARACTERSET, i.e. NVARCHAR2, NCHAR2, NCLOB. Note, there are more and more Oracle native functions which do not support NVARCHAR2, so you should really avoid it. Maybe the only reason is when you have to support mainly Asian characters where AL16UTF16 consumes less storage compared to AL32UTF8.

how to change text in Android TextView

I just posted this answer in the android-discuss google group

If you are just trying to add text to the view so that it displays "Step One: blast egg Step Two: fry egg" Then consider using t.appendText("Step Two: fry egg"); instead of t.setText("Step Two: fry egg");

If you want to completely change what is in the TextView so that it says "Step One: blast egg" on startup and then it says "Step Two: fry egg" at a time later you can always use a

How do I set up HttpContent for my HttpClient PostAsync second parameter?

This is answered in some of the answers to Can't find how to use HttpContent as well as in this blog post.

In summary, you can't directly set up an instance of HttpContent because it is an abstract class. You need to use one the classes derived from it depending on your need. Most likely StringContent, which lets you set the string value of the response, the encoding, and the media type in the constructor. See: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.net.http.stringcontent.aspx

This rule

main: producer.o consumer.o AddRemove.o
   $(COMPILER) -pthread $(CCFLAGS) -o producer.o consumer.o AddRemove.o

is wrong. It says to create a file named producer.o (with -o producer.o), but you want to create a file named main. Please excuse the shouting, but ALWAYS USE $@ TO REFERENCE THE TARGET:

main: producer.o consumer.o AddRemove.o
   $(COMPILER) -pthread $(CCFLAGS) -o $@ producer.o consumer.o AddRemove.o

As Shahbaz rightly points out, the gmake professionals would also use $^ which expands to all the prerequisites in the rule. In general, if you find yourself repeating a string or name, you're doing it wrong and should use a variable, whether one of the built-ins or one you create.

It looks like it requires the '|' even in the header data, because it reads up to that into the first column - swallowing up a newline into the first column. Obviously if you include a field terminator parameter, it expects that every row MUST have one.

You could strip the row with a pre-processing step. Another possibility is to select only complete rows, then process them (exluding the header). Or use a tool which can handle this, like SSIS.

Sublime Text 3, convert spaces to tabs

Here is a solution that will automatically convert to tabs whenever you open a file.

Create this file: .../Packages/User/on_file_load.py:

import sublime
import sublime_plugin

class OnFileLoadEventListener(sublime_plugin.EventListener):

    def on_load_async(self, view):
        view.run_command("unexpand_tabs")

NOTE. It causes the file to be in an unsaved state after opening it, even if no actual space-to-tab conversion took place... maybe some can help with a fix for that...

Setting Custom ActionBar Title from Fragment

Just in case if you are having issues with the code, try putting getSupportActionBar().setTitle(title) inside onResume() of your fragment instead of onCreateView(...) i.e

In MainActivity.java :

public void setActionBarTitle(String title) {

}

In Fragment:

 @Override
 public void onResume(){
     super.onResume();
     ((MainActivity) getActivity()).setActionBarTitle("Your Title");
 }

The target is specified the same was as when linking inside one page, e.g.

<div id="bar">
<h2>Some heading</h2>
Some content
</div>

or (if you really want to link specifically to a heading only)

<h2 id="bar">Some heading</h2>

How do I do a Date comparison in Javascript?

new Date('1945/05/09').valueOf() < new Date('2011/05/09').valueOf()

Using Razor within JavaScript

What specific errors are you seeing?

Something like this could work better:

<script type="text/javascript">

//now add markers
 @foreach (var item in Model) {
    <text>
      var markerlatLng = new google.maps.LatLng(@Model.Latitude, @Model.Longitude);
      var title = '@(Model.Title)';
      var description = '@(Model.Description)';
      var contentString = '<h3>' + title + '</h3>' + '<p>' + description + '</p>'
    </text>
}
</script>

Note that you need the magical <text> tag after the foreach to indicate that Razor should switch into markup mode.

Convert date to YYYYMM format

I know it is an old topic, but If your SQL server version is higher than 2012.

There is another simple option can choose, FORMAT function.

SELECT FORMAT(GetDate(),'yyyyMM')

Make XAMPP / Apache serve file outside of htdocs folder

Solution to allow Apache 2 to host websites outside of htdocs:

Underneath the "DocumentRoot" directive in httpd.conf, you should see a directory block. Replace this directory block with:

<Directory />
    Options FollowSymLinks
    AllowOverride All
    Allow from all
</Directory> 

REMEMBER NOT TO USE THIS CONFIGURATION IN A REAL ENVIRONMENT

Pandas DataFrame to List of Lists

I wanted to preserve the index, so I adapted the original answer to this solution:

list_df = df.reset_index().values.tolist()

Now you can paste it somewhere else (e.g. to paste into a Stack Overflow question) and latter recreate it:

pd.Dataframe(list_df, columns=['name1', ...])
pd.set_index(['name1'], inplace=True)

HttpGet with HTTPS : SSLPeerUnverifiedException

How to install Android SDK Build Tools on the command line?

By default, the SDK Manager from the command line does not include the build tools in the list. They're in the "obsolete" category. To see all available downloads, use

android list sdk --all

And then to get one of the packages in that list from the command line, use:

android update sdk -u -a -t <package no.>

Where -u stands for --no-ui, -a stands for --all and -t stands for --filter.

If you need to install multiple packages do:

android update sdk -u -a -t 1,2,3,4,..,n 

Where 1,2,..,n is the package number listed with the list command above

What is difference between 'git reset --hard HEAD~1' and 'git reset --soft HEAD~1'?

This is the main difference between use git reset --hard and git reset --soft:

--soft

Does not touch the index file or the working tree at all (but resets the head to , just like all modes do). This leaves all your changed files "Changes to be committed", as git status would put it.

--hard

Resets the index and working tree. Any changes to tracked files in the working tree since are discarded.

How to get base URL in Web API controller?

Create list of single item repeated N times

As others have pointed out, using the * operator for a mutable object duplicates references, so if you change one you change them all. If you want to create independent instances of a mutable object, your xrange syntax is the most Pythonic way to do this. If you are bothered by having a named variable that is never used, you can use the anonymous underscore variable.

[e for _ in xrange(n)]

Spring MVC: How to return image in @ResponseBody?

In your application context declare a AnnotationMethodHandlerAdapter and registerByteArrayHttpMessageConverter:

<bean class="org.springframework.web.servlet.mvc.annotation.AnnotationMethodHandlerAdapter">
  <property name="messageConverters">
    <util:list>
      <bean id="byteArrayMessageConverter" class="org.springframework.http.converter.ByteArrayHttpMessageConverter"/>
    </util:list>
  </property>
</bean> 

also in the handler method set appropriate content type for your response.

transform object to array with lodash

If you want the key (id in this case) to be a preserved as a property of each array item you can do

const arr = _(obj) //wrap object so that you can chain lodash methods
            .mapValues((value, id)=>_.merge({}, value, {id})) //attach id to object
            .values() //get the values of the result
            .value() //unwrap array of objects

increment date by one month

function dayOfWeek($date){
    return DateTime::createFromFormat('Y-m-d', $date)->format('N');
}

Usage examples:

echo dayOfWeek(2016-12-22);
// "4"
echo dayOfWeek(date('Y-m-d'));
// "4"

How can I list all the deleted files in a Git repository?

And if you want to somehow constrain the results here's a nice one:

$ git log --diff-filter=D --summary | sed -n '/^commit/h;/\/some_dir\//{G;s/\ncommit \(.*\)/ \1/gp}'
delete mode 100644 blah/some_dir/file1 d3bfbbeba5b5c1da73c432cb3fb61990bdcf6f64
delete mode 100644 blah/some_dir/file2 d3bfbbeba5b5c1da73c432cb3fb61990bdcf6f64
delete mode 100644 blah/some_dir/file3 9c89b91d8df7c95c6043184154c476623414fcb7

You'll get all files deleted from some_dir (see the sed command) together with the commit number in which it happen. Any sed regex will do (I use this to find deleted file types, etc)

Android ListView with Checkbox and all clickable

How to get a list of installed Jenkins plugins with name and version pair

With curl and jq:

curl -s <jenkins_url>/pluginManager/api/json?depth=1 \
  | jq -r '.plugins[] | "\(.shortName):\(.version)"' \
  | sort

This command gives output in a format used by special Jenkins plugins.txt file which enables you to pre-install dependencies (e.g. in a docker image):

ace-editor:1.1
ant:1.8
apache-httpcomponents-client-4-api:4.5.5-3.0

Example of a plugins.txt: https://github.com/hoto/jenkinsfile-examples/blob/master/source/jenkins/usr/share/jenkins/plugins.txt

Sending data back to the Main Activity in Android

FirstActivity uses startActivityForResult:

Intent intent = new Intent(MainActivity.this,SecondActivity.class);
startActivityForResult(intent, int requestCode); // suppose requestCode == 2

@Override
protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data)
{
    super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);
    if (requestCode == 2)
    {
        String message=data.getStringExtra("MESSAGE");
    }
}

On SecondActivity call setResult() onClick events or onBackPressed()

Intent intent=new Intent();
intent.putExtra("MESSAGE",message);
setResult(Activity.RESULT_OK, intent);

The transaction log for database is full. To find out why space in the log cannot be reused, see the log_reuse_wait_desc column in sys.databases

As an aside, it is always a good practice (and possibly a solution for this type of issue) to delete a large number of rows by using batches:

WHILE EXISTS (SELECT 1 
              FROM   YourTable 
              WHERE  <yourCondition>) 
  DELETE TOP(10000) FROM YourTable 
  WHERE  <yourCondition>

Compare two different files line by line in python

This solution reads both files in one pass, excludes blank lines, and prints common lines regardless of their position in the file:

with open('some_file_1.txt', 'r') as file1:
    with open('some_file_2.txt', 'r') as file2:
        same = set(file1).intersection(file2)

same.discard('\n')

with open('some_output_file.txt', 'w') as file_out:
    for line in same:
        file_out.write(line)

How can I change the font size using seaborn FacetGrid?

How do I get a list of all the duplicate items using pandas in python?

Using an element-wise logical or and setting the take_last argument of the pandas duplicated method to both True and False you can obtain a set from your dataframe that includes all of the duplicates.

df_bigdata_duplicates = 
    df_bigdata[df_bigdata.duplicated(cols='ID', take_last=False) |
               df_bigdata.duplicated(cols='ID', take_last=True)
              ]

Return value using String result=Command.ExecuteScalar() error occurs when result returns null

Use SQL server isnull function

    string result="0";
    string myQuery="select isnull(COUNT(idemp_atd),0) as absentDayNo from td_atd where ";
    myQuery +=" absentdate_atd between '"+sdate+"' and '"+edate+" ";
    myQuery +=" and idemp_atd='"+idemp+"' group by idemp_atd ";

    SqlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand(myQuery, conn);
    conn.Open();
    //System.NullReferenceException occurs when their is no data/result
    string getValue = cmd.ExecuteScalar().ToString();
    if (getValue != null)
    {
        result = getValue.ToString();
    }
    conn.Close();
    return result;
}

Python-Requests close http connection

As discussed here, there really isn't such a thing as an HTTP connection and what httplib refers to as the HTTPConnection is really the underlying TCP connection which doesn't really know much about your requests at all. Requests abstracts that away and you won't ever see it.

The newest version of Requests does in fact keep the TCP connection alive after your request.. If you do want your TCP connections to close, you can just configure the requests to not use keep-alive.

s = requests.session()
s.config['keep_alive'] = False

html - table row like a link

You can't wrap a <td> element with an <a> tag, but you can accomplish similar functionality by using the onclick event to call a function. An example is found here, something like this function:

<script type="text/javascript">
function DoNav(url)
{
   document.location.href = url;
}
</script>

And add it to your table like this:

<tr onclick="DoNav('http://stackoverflow.com/')"><td></td></tr>

Which way is best for creating an object in JavaScript? Is `var` necessary before an object property?

There is no "best way" to create an object. Each way has benefits depending on your use case.

The constructor pattern (a function paired with the new operator to invoke it) provides the possibility of using prototypal inheritance, whereas the other ways don't. So if you want prototypal inheritance, then a constructor function is a fine way to go.

However, if you want prototypal inheritance, you may as well use Object.create, which makes the inheritance more obvious.

Creating an object literal (ex: var obj = {foo: "bar"};) works great if you happen to have all the properties you wish to set on hand at creation time.

For setting properties later, the NewObject.property1 syntax is generally preferable to NewObject['property1'] if you know the property name. But the latter is useful when you don't actually have the property's name ahead of time (ex: NewObject[someStringVar]).

Hope this helps!

How to change color in markdown cells ipython/jupyter notebook?

An alternative way to do that, is to enter a LaTeX environment within the notebook and change color from there (which is great if you are more fluent in LaTeX than in HTML). Example:

$\color{red}{\text{ciao}}$

would display ciao in red.

Capturing TAB key in text box

Even if you capture the keydown/keyup event, those are the only events that the tab key fires, you still need some way to prevent the default action, moving to the next item in the tab order, from occurring.

In Firefox you can call the preventDefault() method on the event object passed to your event handler. In IE, you have to return false from the event handle. The JQuery library provides a preventDefault method on its event object that works in IE and FF.

<body>
<input type="text" id="myInput">
<script type="text/javascript">
    var myInput = document.getElementById("myInput");
    if(myInput.addEventListener ) {
        myInput.addEventListener('keydown',this.keyHandler,false);
    } else if(myInput.attachEvent ) {
        myInput.attachEvent('onkeydown',this.keyHandler); /* damn IE hack */
    }

    function keyHandler(e) {
        var TABKEY = 9;
        if(e.keyCode == TABKEY) {
            this.value += "    ";
            if(e.preventDefault) {
                e.preventDefault();
            }
            return false;
        }

How to delete all files from a specific folder?

Replace "\\" with "\" in a string in C#

Regex.Unescape(string) method converts any escaped characters in the input string.

The Unescape method performs one of the following two transformations:

  1. It reverses the transformation performed by the Escape method by removing the escape character ("\") from each character escaped by the method. These include the \, *, +, ?, |, {, [, (,), ^, $, ., #, and white space characters. In addition, the Unescape method unescapes the closing bracket (]) and closing brace (}) characters.

  2. It replaces the hexadecimal values in verbatim string literals with the actual printable characters. For example, it replaces @"\x07" with "\a", or @"\x0A" with "\n". It converts to supported escape characters such as \a, \b, \e, \n, \r, \f, \t, \v, and alphanumeric characters.

string str = @"a\\b\\c";
var output = System.Text.RegularExpressions.Regex.Unescape(str);

How to write a function that takes a positive integer N and returns a list of the first N natural numbers

Do I even need a for loop to create a list?

No, you can (and in general circumstances should) use the built-in function range():

>>> range(1,5)
[1, 2, 3, 4]

i.e.

def naturalNumbers(n):
    return range(1, n + 1)

Python 3's range() is slightly different in that it returns a range object and not a list, so if you're using 3.x wrap it all in list(): list(range(1, n + 1)).

Redraw datatables after using ajax to refresh the table content?

    var toDate = $("#to").val();

    $.post(url, { campaignId: campaign_id, fromdate: fromDate, todate: toDate},
            function( data ) { 

                $("#ajaxresponse").html(data);

                oTable6 = $('#rankings').dataTable( {"bDestroy":true,
                    "sDom":'t<"bottom"filp><"clear">',

});

bDestroy: true will first destroy and datatable instance associated with that selector before reinitializing a new one.

Omitting all xsi and xsd namespaces when serializing an object in .NET?

This is the 2nd of two answers.

If you want to just strip all namespaces arbitrarily from a document during serialization, you can do this by implementing your own XmlWriter.

The easiest way is to derive from XmlTextWriter and override the StartElement method that emits namespaces. The StartElement method is invoked by the XmlSerializer when emitting any elements, including the root. By overriding the namespace for each element, and replacing it with the empty string, you've stripped the namespaces from the output.

public class NoNamespaceXmlWriter : XmlTextWriter
{
    //Provide as many contructors as you need
    public NoNamespaceXmlWriter(System.IO.TextWriter output)
        : base(output) { Formatting= System.Xml.Formatting.Indented;}

    public override void WriteStartDocument () { }

    public override void WriteStartElement(string prefix, string localName, string ns)
    {
        base.WriteStartElement("", localName, "");
    }
}

Suppose this is the type:

// explicitly specify a namespace for this type,
// to be used during XML serialization.
[XmlRoot(Namespace="urn:Abracadabra")]
public class MyTypeWithNamespaces
{
    // private fields backing the properties
    private int _Epoch;
    private string _Label;

    // explicitly define a distinct namespace for this element
    [XmlElement(Namespace="urn:Whoohoo")]
    public string Label
    {
        set {  _Label= value; } 
        get { return _Label; } 
    }

    // this property will be implicitly serialized to XML using the
    // member name for the element name, and inheriting the namespace from
    // the type.
    public int Epoch
    {
        set {  _Epoch= value; } 
        get { return _Epoch; } 
    }
}

Here's how you would use such a thing during serialization:

        var o2= new MyTypeWithNamespaces { ..intializers.. };
        var builder = new System.Text.StringBuilder();
        using ( XmlWriter writer = new NoNamespaceXmlWriter(new System.IO.StringWriter(builder)))
        {
            s2.Serialize(writer, o2, ns2);
        }            
        Console.WriteLine("{0}",builder.ToString());

The XmlTextWriter is sort of broken, though. According to the reference doc, when it writes it does not check for the following:

  • Invalid characters in attribute and element names.

  • Unicode characters that do not fit the specified encoding. If the Unicode characters do not fit the specified encoding, the XmlTextWriter does not escape the Unicode characters into character entities.

  • Duplicate attributes.

  • Characters in the DOCTYPE public identifier or system identifier.

These problems with XmlTextWriter have been around since v1.1 of the .NET Framework, and they will remain, for backward compatibility. If you have no concerns about those problems, then by all means use the XmlTextWriter. But most people would like a bit more reliability.

To get that, while still suppressing namespaces during serialization, instead of deriving from XmlTextWriter, define a concrete implementation of the abstract XmlWriter and its 24 methods.

An example is here:

public class XmlWriterWrapper : XmlWriter
{
    protected XmlWriter writer;

    public XmlWriterWrapper(XmlWriter baseWriter)
    {
        this.Writer = baseWriter;
    }

    public override void Close()
    {
        this.writer.Close();
    }

    protected override void Dispose(bool disposing)
    {
        ((IDisposable) this.writer).Dispose();
    }

    public override void Flush()
    {
        this.writer.Flush();
    }

    public override string LookupPrefix(string ns)
    {
        return this.writer.LookupPrefix(ns);
    }

    public override void WriteBase64(byte[] buffer, int index, int count)
    {
        this.writer.WriteBase64(buffer, index, count);
    }

    public override void WriteCData(string text)
    {
        this.writer.WriteCData(text);
    }

    public override void WriteCharEntity(char ch)
    {
        this.writer.WriteCharEntity(ch);
    }

    public override void WriteChars(char[] buffer, int index, int count)
    {
        this.writer.WriteChars(buffer, index, count);
    }

    public override void WriteComment(string text)
    {
        this.writer.WriteComment(text);
    }

    public override void WriteDocType(string name, string pubid, string sysid, string subset)
    {
        this.writer.WriteDocType(name, pubid, sysid, subset);
    }

    public override void WriteEndAttribute()
    {
        this.writer.WriteEndAttribute();
    }

    public override void WriteEndDocument()
    {
        this.writer.WriteEndDocument();
    }

    public override void WriteEndElement()
    {
        this.writer.WriteEndElement();
    }

    public override void WriteEntityRef(string name)
    {
        this.writer.WriteEntityRef(name);
    }

    public override void WriteFullEndElement()
    {
        this.writer.WriteFullEndElement();
    }

    public override void WriteProcessingInstruction(string name, string text)
    {
        this.writer.WriteProcessingInstruction(name, text);
    }

    public override void WriteRaw(string data)
    {
        this.writer.WriteRaw(data);
    }

    public override void WriteRaw(char[] buffer, int index, int count)
    {
        this.writer.WriteRaw(buffer, index, count);
    }

    public override void WriteStartAttribute(string prefix, string localName, string ns)
    {
        this.writer.WriteStartAttribute(prefix, localName, ns);
    }

    public override void WriteStartDocument()
    {
        this.writer.WriteStartDocument();
    }

    public override void WriteStartDocument(bool standalone)
    {
        this.writer.WriteStartDocument(standalone);
    }

    public override void WriteStartElement(string prefix, string localName, string ns)
    {
        this.writer.WriteStartElement(prefix, localName, ns);
    }

    public override void WriteString(string text)
    {
        this.writer.WriteString(text);
    }

    public override void WriteSurrogateCharEntity(char lowChar, char highChar)
    {
        this.writer.WriteSurrogateCharEntity(lowChar, highChar);
    }

    public override void WriteValue(bool value)
    {
        this.writer.WriteValue(value);
    }

    public override void WriteValue(DateTime value)
    {
        this.writer.WriteValue(value);
    }

    public override void WriteValue(decimal value)
    {
        this.writer.WriteValue(value);
    }

    public override void WriteValue(double value)
    {
        this.writer.WriteValue(value);
    }

    public override void WriteValue(int value)
    {
        this.writer.WriteValue(value);
    }

    public override void WriteValue(long value)
    {
        this.writer.WriteValue(value);
    }

    public override void WriteValue(object value)
    {
        this.writer.WriteValue(value);
    }

    public override void WriteValue(float value)
    {
        this.writer.WriteValue(value);
    }

    public override void WriteValue(string value)
    {
        this.writer.WriteValue(value);
    }

    public override void WriteWhitespace(string ws)
    {
        this.writer.WriteWhitespace(ws);
    }


    public override XmlWriterSettings Settings
    {
        get
        {
            return this.writer.Settings;
        }
    }

    protected XmlWriter Writer
    {
        get
        {
            return this.writer;
        }
        set
        {
            this.writer = value;
        }
    }

    public override System.Xml.WriteState WriteState
    {
        get
        {
            return this.writer.WriteState;
        }
    }

    public override string XmlLang
    {
        get
        {
            return this.writer.XmlLang;
        }
    }

    public override System.Xml.XmlSpace XmlSpace
    {
        get
        {
            return this.writer.XmlSpace;
        }
    }        
}

Then, provide a derived class that overrides the StartElement method, as before:

public class NamespaceSupressingXmlWriter : XmlWriterWrapper
{
    //Provide as many contructors as you need
    public NamespaceSupressingXmlWriter(System.IO.TextWriter output)
        : base(XmlWriter.Create(output)) { }

    public NamespaceSupressingXmlWriter(XmlWriter output)
        : base(XmlWriter.Create(output)) { }

    public override void WriteStartElement(string prefix, string localName, string ns)
    {
        base.WriteStartElement("", localName, "");
    }
}

And then use this writer like so:

        var o2= new MyTypeWithNamespaces { ..intializers.. };
        var builder = new System.Text.StringBuilder();
        var settings = new XmlWriterSettings { OmitXmlDeclaration = true, Indent= true };
        using ( XmlWriter innerWriter = XmlWriter.Create(builder, settings))
            using ( XmlWriter writer = new NamespaceSupressingXmlWriter(innerWriter))
            {
                s2.Serialize(writer, o2, ns2);
            }            
        Console.WriteLine("{0}",builder.ToString());

Why does background-color have no effect on this DIV?

Floats don't have a height so the containing div has a height of zero.

<div style="background-color:black; overflow:hidden;zoom:1" onmouseover="this.bgColor='white'">
<div style="float:left">hello</div>
<div style="float:right">world</div>
</div>

overflow:hidden clears the float for most browsers.

zoom:1 clears the float for IE.

GIT commit as different user without email / or only email

The minimal required author format, as hinted to in this SO answer, is

Name <email>

In your case, this means you want to write

git commit --author="Name <email>" -m "whatever"

Per Willem D'Haeseleer's comment, if you don't have an email address, you can use <>:

git commit --author="Name <>" -m "whatever"

As written on the git commit man page that you linked to, if you supply anything less than that, it's used as a search token to search through previous commits, looking for other commits by that author.

When is TCP option SO_LINGER (0) required?

For my suggestion, please read the last section: “When to use SO_LINGER with timeout 0”.

Before we come to that a little lecture about:

  • Normal TCP termination
  • TIME_WAIT
  • FIN, ACK and RST

Normal TCP termination

The normal TCP termination sequence looks like this (simplified):

We have two peers: A and B

  1. A calls close()
    • A sends FIN to B
    • A goes into FIN_WAIT_1 state
  2. B receives FIN
    • B sends ACK to A
    • B goes into CLOSE_WAIT state
  3. A receives ACK
    • A goes into FIN_WAIT_2 state
  4. B calls close()
    • B sends FIN to A
    • B goes into LAST_ACK state
  5. A receives FIN
    • A sends ACK to B
    • A goes into TIME_WAIT state
  6. B receives ACK
    • B goes to CLOSED state – i.e. is removed from the socket tables

TIME_WAIT

So the peer that initiates the termination – i.e. calls close() first – will end up in the TIME_WAIT state.

To understand why the TIME_WAIT state is our friend, please read section 2.7 in "UNIX Network Programming" third edition by Stevens et al (page 43).

However, it can be a problem with lots of sockets in TIME_WAIT state on a server as it could eventually prevent new connections from being accepted.

To work around this problem, I have seen many suggesting to set the SO_LINGER socket option with timeout 0 before calling close(). However, this is a bad solution as it causes the TCP connection to be terminated with an error.

Instead, design your application protocol so the connection termination is always initiated from the client side. If the client always knows when it has read all remaining data it can initiate the termination sequence. As an example, a browser knows from the Content-Length HTTP header when it has read all data and can initiate the close. (I know that in HTTP 1.1 it will keep it open for a while for a possible reuse, and then close it.)

If the server needs to close the connection, design the application protocol so the server asks the client to call close().

When to use SO_LINGER with timeout 0

Again, according to "UNIX Network Programming" third edition page 202-203, setting SO_LINGER with timeout 0 prior to calling close() will cause the normal termination sequence not to be initiated.

Instead, the peer setting this option and calling close() will send a RST (connection reset) which indicates an error condition and this is how it will be perceived at the other end. You will typically see errors like "Connection reset by peer".

Therefore, in the normal situation it is a really bad idea to set SO_LINGER with timeout 0 prior to calling close() – from now on called abortive close – in a server application.

However, certain situation warrants doing so anyway:

  • If the a client of your server application misbehaves (times out, returns invalid data, etc.) an abortive close makes sense to avoid being stuck in CLOSE_WAIT or ending up in the TIME_WAIT state.
  • If you must restart your server application which currently has thousands of client connections you might consider setting this socket option to avoid thousands of server sockets in TIME_WAIT (when calling close() from the server end) as this might prevent the server from getting available ports for new client connections after being restarted.
  • On page 202 in the aforementioned book it specifically says: "There are certain circumstances which warrant using this feature to send an abortive close. One example is an RS-232 terminal server, which might hang forever in CLOSE_WAIT trying to deliver data to a stuck terminal port, but would properly reset the stuck port if it got an RST to discard the pending data."

I would recommend this long article which I believe gives a very good answer to your question.

jQuery "on create" event for dynamically-created elements

You can on the DOMNodeInserted event to get an event for when it's added to the document by your code.

$('body').on('DOMNodeInserted', 'select', function () {
      //$(this).combobox();
});

$('<select>').appendTo('body');
$('<select>').appendTo('body');

Fiddled here: http://jsfiddle.net/Codesleuth/qLAB2/3/

EDIT: after reading around I just need to double check DOMNodeInserted won't cause problems across browsers. This question from 2010 suggests IE doesn't support the event, so test it if you can.

See here: [link] Warning! the DOMNodeInserted event type is defined in this specification for reference and completeness, but this specification deprecates the use of this event type.

Java Read Large Text File With 70million line of text

This article is a great way to start.

Also, you need to create test cases in which you read first 10k(or something else, but shouldn't be too small) lines and calculate the reading times accordingly.

Threading might be a good way to go, but it's important that we know what you will be doing with the data.

Another thing to be considered is, how you will store that size of data.

Calling a PHP function from an HTML form in the same file

You can submit the form without refreshing the page, but to my knowledge it is impossible without using a JavaScript/Ajax call to a PHP script on your server. The following example uses the jQuery JavaScript library.

HTML

<form method = 'post' action = '' id = 'theForm'>
...
</form>

JavaScript

$(function() {
    $("#theForm").submit(function() {
        var data = "a=5&b=6&c=7";
        $.ajax({
            url: "path/to/php/file.php",
            data: data,
            success: function(html) {
                .. anything you want to do upon success here ..
                alert(html); // alert the output from the PHP Script
            }
        });
        return false;
    });
});

Upon submission, the anonymous Javascript function will be called, which simply sends a request to your PHP file (which will need to be in a separate file, btw). The data above needs to be a URL-encoded query string that you want to send to the PHP file (basically all of the current values of the form fields). These will appear to your server-side PHP script in the $_GET super global. An example is below.

var data = "a=5&b=6&c=7";

If that is your data string, then the PHP script will see this as:

echo($_GET['a']); // 5
echo($_GET['b']); // 6
echo($_GET['c']); // 7

You, however, will need to construct the data from the form fields as they exist for your form, such as:

var data = "user=" + $("#user").val();

(You will need to tag each form field with an 'id', the above id is 'user'.)

After the PHP script runs, the success function is called, and any and all output produced by the PHP script will be stored in the variable html.

...
success: function(html) {
    alert(html);
}
...

Invariant Violation: Objects are not valid as a React child

Invariant Violation: Objects are not valid as a React child happened to me when using a component that needed a renderItem props, like:

renderItem={this.renderItem}

and my mistake was to make my renderItem method async.

Access-control-allow-origin with multiple domains

You can add this code to your asp.net webapi project

in file Global.asax

    protected void Application_BeginRequest()
{
    string origin = Request.Headers.Get("Origin");
    if (Request.HttpMethod == "OPTIONS")
    {
        Response.AddHeader("Access-Control-Allow-Origin", origin);
        Response.AddHeader("Access-Control-Allow-Headers", "*");
        Response.AddHeader("Access-Control-Allow-Methods", "GET,POST,PUT,OPTIONS,DELETE");
        Response.StatusCode = 200;
        Response.End();
    }
    else
    {
        Response.AddHeader("Access-Control-Allow-Origin", origin);
        Response.AddHeader("Access-Control-Allow-Headers", "*");
        Response.AddHeader("Access-Control-Allow-Methods", "GET,POST,PUT,OPTIONS,DELETE");
    }
}

Finding the indices of matching elements in list in Python

if you're doing a lot of this kind of thing you should consider using numpy.

In [56]: import random, numpy

In [57]: lst = numpy.array([random.uniform(0, 5) for _ in range(1000)]) # example list

In [58]: a, b = 1, 3

In [59]: numpy.flatnonzero((lst > a) & (lst < b))[:10]
Out[59]: array([ 0, 12, 13, 15, 18, 19, 23, 24, 26, 29])

In response to Seanny123's question, I used this timing code:

import numpy, timeit, random

a, b = 1, 3

lst = numpy.array([random.uniform(0, 5) for _ in range(1000)])

def numpy_way():
    numpy.flatnonzero((lst > 1) & (lst < 3))[:10]

def list_comprehension():
    [e for e in lst if 1 < e < 3][:10]

print timeit.timeit(numpy_way)
print timeit.timeit(list_comprehension)

The numpy version is over 60 times faster.

Removing single-quote from a string in php

Using your current str_replace method:

$FileName = str_replace("'", "", $UserInput);

While it's hard to see, the first argument is a double quote followed by a single quote followed by a double quote. The second argument is two double quotes with nothing in between.

With str_replace, you could even have an array of strings you want to remove entirely:

$remove[] = "'";
$remove[] = '"';
$remove[] = "-"; // just as another example

$FileName = str_replace( $remove, "", $UserInput );

Predict() - Maybe I'm not understanding it

First, you want to use

model <- lm(Total ~ Coupon, data=df)

not model <-lm(df$Total ~ df$Coupon, data=df).

Second, by saying lm(Total ~ Coupon), you are fitting a model that uses Total as the response variable, with Coupon as the predictor. That is, your model is of the form Total = a + b*Coupon, with a and b the coefficients to be estimated. Note that the response goes on the left side of the ~, and the predictor(s) on the right.

Because of this, when you ask R to give you predicted values for the model, you have to provide a set of new predictor values, ie new values of Coupon, not Total.

Third, judging by your specification of newdata, it looks like you're actually after a model to fit Coupon as a function of Total, not the other way around. To do this:

model <- lm(Coupon ~ Total, data=df)
new.df <- data.frame(Total=c(79037022, 83100656, 104299800))
predict(model, new.df)

How can I make setInterval also work when a tab is inactive in Chrome?

On most browsers inactive tabs have low priority execution and this can affect JavaScript timers.

If the values of your transition were calculated using real time elapsed between frames instead fixed increments on each interval, you not only workaround this issue but also can achieve a smother animation by using requestAnimationFrame as it can get up to 60fps if the processor isn't very busy.

Here's a vanilla JavaScript example of an animated property transition using requestAnimationFrame:

_x000D_
_x000D_
var target = document.querySelector('div#target')_x000D_
var startedAt, duration = 3000_x000D_
var domain = [-100, window.innerWidth]_x000D_
var range = domain[1] - domain[0]_x000D_
_x000D_
function start() {_x000D_
  startedAt = Date.now()_x000D_
  updateTarget(0)_x000D_
  requestAnimationFrame(update)_x000D_
}_x000D_
_x000D_
function update() {_x000D_
  let elapsedTime = Date.now() - startedAt_x000D_
_x000D_
  // playback is a value between 0 and 1_x000D_
  // being 0 the start of the animation and 1 its end_x000D_
  let playback = elapsedTime / duration_x000D_
_x000D_
  updateTarget(playback)_x000D_
  _x000D_
  if (playback > 0 && playback < 1) {_x000D_
   // Queue the next frame_x000D_
   requestAnimationFrame(update)_x000D_
  } else {_x000D_
   // Wait for a while and restart the animation_x000D_
   setTimeout(start, duration/10)_x000D_
  }_x000D_
}_x000D_
_x000D_
function updateTarget(playback) {_x000D_
  // Uncomment the line below to reverse the animation_x000D_
  // playback = 1 - playback_x000D_

For Background Tasks (non-UI related)

@UpTheCreek comment:

Fine for presentation issues, but still there are some things that you need to keep running.

If you have background tasks that needs to be precisely executed at given intervals, you can use HTML5 Web Workers. Take a look at Möhre's answer below for more details...

CSS vs JS "animations"

This problem and many others could be avoided by using CSS transitions/animations instead of JavaScript based animations which adds a considerable overhead. I'd recommend this jQuery plugin that let's you take benefit from CSS transitions just like the animate() methods.

Android disable screen timeout while app is running

Put this at onStart

    PowerManager powerManager = (PowerManager) getSystemService(Context.POWER_SERVICE);
    wakeLock = powerManager.newWakeLock(PowerManager.PARTIAL_WAKE_LOCK, "no sleep");
    wakeLock.acquire();

And this at you manifest

How to convert An NSInteger to an int?

If you want to do this inline, just cast the NSUInteger or NSInteger to an int:

int i = -1;
NSUInteger row = 100;
i > row // true, since the signed int is implicitly converted to an unsigned int
i > (int)row // false

Is quitting an application frowned upon?

This is an interesting and insightful discussion with so many experts contributing. I feel this post should be looped back from within the Android development main website, because it does revolve around one of the core designs of the Android OS.

I would also like to add my two cents here.

So far I have been impressed with Android's way of handling lifecycle events, bringing the concept of a web-like experience to native apps.

Having said that I still believe that there should be a Quit button. Why? ... not for me or Ted or any of the tech gurus here, but for the sole purpose of meeting an end user demand.

Though I am not a big fan of Windows, but long back they introduced a concept that most end users are used to (an X button) ... "I want to quit running a widget when 'I' want to".

That does not mean someone (OS, developer?) will take care of that at its/his/her own discretion... it simply means "where is my Red X button that I am used to". My action should be analogous to 'end a call on pressing of a button', 'turn off the device by pressing a button', and so on and so forth ... it's a perception. It brings a satisfaction per se that my action indeed achieve its purpose.

Even though a developer can spoof this behavior using suggestions given here, the perception still remains i.e. an application should completely cease to function (now), by an independent, trusted and neutral source (OS) on demand from the end user.

What is a segmentation fault?

There are enough definitions of segmentation fault, i would like to quote few examples which i came across while programming, which might seem silly mistakes, but will waste a lot of time.

  1. you can get segmentation fault in below case while argumet type mismatch in printf

    #include<stdio.h> int main(){
    int a = 5; printf("%s",a); return 0; }

output : Segmentation Fault (SIGSEGV)

  1. when you forgot to allocate memory to a pointer, but trying to use it.

     #include<stdio.h> 
     typedef struct{
       int a;
     }myStruct;   
    int main(){
      myStruct *s;
      /* few lines of code */
      s->a = 5;
      return 0;
    }
    

output : Segmentation Fault (SIGSEGV)

preg_match in JavaScript?

    return regex.exec(str);
  }
  return false;
}

Zookeeper connection error

Had the same error during setup on a 2 node cluster. I discovered I had mixed up the contents of the myid file versus the server.id=HOST_IP:port entry.

Essentially, if you have two servers (SERVER1 and SERVER2) for which you have created "myid" files in dataDir for zookeeper as below

SERVER1 (myid)
1

SERVER2 (myid)
2

Ensure the entry in your zoo.cfg file corresponds for each of these i.e server.1 should use SERVER1 hostname and server.2 should use SERVER2 hostname followed by the port as below

SERVER1 (zoo.cfg)
... (other config omitted)
server.1=SERVER1:2888:3888
server.2=SERVER2:2888:3888

SERVER2 (zoo.cfg)
... (other config omitted)
server.1=SERVER1:2888:3888
server.2=SERVER2:2888:3888

Just to make sure, I also deleted the version-* folder in the dataDir then restarted Zookeeper to get it working.

ComboBox- SelectionChanged event has old value, not new value

From SelectionChanged event of a combobox you can get the selected item text as follow:

        private void myComboBox_SelectionChanged (object sender, SelectionChangedEventArgs e)
        {
        ComboBoxItem comboBoxItem = (ComboBoxItem) e.AddedItems[0];
        string selectedItemText = comboBoxItem.Content.ToString();
        }

Is there a Newline constant defined in Java like Environment.Newline in C#?

As of Java 7 (and Android API level 19):

System.lineSeparator()

Documentation: Java Platform SE 7


For older versions of Java, use:

System.getProperty("line.separator");

See https://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/essential/environment/sysprop.html for other properties.

Return current date plus 7 days

This code works for me:

<?php
$date = "21.12.2015";
$newDate = date("d.m.Y",strtotime($date."+2 day"));
echo $newDate; // print 23.12.2015
?>

Converting pfx to pem using openssl

Another perspective for doing it on Linux... here is how to do it so that the resulting single file contains the decrypted private key so that something like HAProxy can use it without prompting you for passphrase.

openssl pkcs12 -in file.pfx -out file.pem -nodes

Then you can configure HAProxy to use the file.pem file.


This is an EDIT from previous version where I had these multiple steps until I realized the -nodes option just simply bypasses the private key encryption. But I'm leaving it here as it may just help with teaching.

openssl pkcs12 -in file.pfx -out file.nokey.pem -nokeys
openssl pkcs12 -in file.pfx -out file.withkey.pem
openssl rsa -in file.withkey.pem -out file.key
cat file.nokey.pem file.key > file.combo.pem
  1. The 1st step prompts you for the password to open the PFX.
  2. The 2nd step prompts you for that plus also to make up a passphrase for the key.
  3. The 3rd step prompts you to enter the passphrase you just made up to store decrypted.
  4. The 4th puts it all together into 1 file.

Then you can configure HAProxy to use the file.combo.pem file.

The reason why you need 2 separate steps where you indicate a file with the key and another without the key, is because if you have a file which has both the encrypted and decrypted key, something like HAProxy still prompts you to type in the passphrase when it uses it.

angular.service vs angular.factory

TL;DR

1) When you’re using a Factory you create an object, add properties to it, then return that same object. When you pass this factory into your controller, those properties on the object will now be available in that controller through your factory.

app.controller('myFactoryCtrl', function($scope, myFactory){
  $scope.artist = myFactory.getArtist();
});

app.factory('myFactory', function(){
  var _artist = 'Shakira';
  var service = {};

  service.getArtist = function(){
    return _artist;
  }

  return service;
});


2) When you’re using Service, Angular instantiates it behind the scenes with the ‘new’ keyword. Because of that, you’ll add properties to ‘this’ and the service will return ‘this’. When you pass the service into your controller, those properties on ‘this’ will now be available on that controller through your service.

app.controller('myServiceCtrl', function($scope, myService){
  $scope.artist = myService.getArtist();
});

app.service('myService', function(){
  var _artist = 'Nelly';
  this.getArtist = function(){
    return _artist;
  }
});



Non TL;DR

1) Factory
Factories are the most popular way to create and configure a service. There’s really not much more than what the TL;DR said. You just create an object, add properties to it, then return that same object. Then when you pass the factory into your controller, those properties on the object will now be available in that controller through your factory. A more extensive example is below.

app.factory('myFactory', function(){
  var service = {};
  return service;
});

Now whatever properties we attach to ‘service’ will be available to us when we pass ‘myFactory’ into our controller.

Now let’s add some ‘private’ variables to our callback function. These won’t be directly accessible from the controller, but we will eventually set up some getter/setter methods on ‘service’ to be able to alter these ‘private’ variables when needed.

app.factory('myFactory', function($http, $q){
  var service = {};
  var baseUrl = 'https://itunes.apple.com/search?term=';
  var _artist = '';
  var _finalUrl = '';

  var makeUrl = function(){
   _artist = _artist.split(' ').join('+');
    _finalUrl = baseUrl + _artist + '&callback=JSON_CALLBACK';
    return _finalUrl
  }

  return service;
});

Here you’ll notice we’re not attaching those variables/function to ‘service’. We’re simply creating them in order to either use or modify them later.

  • baseUrl is the base URL that the iTunes API requires
  • _artist is the artist we wish to lookup
  • _finalUrl is the final and fully built URL to which we’ll make the call to iTunes makeUrl is a function that will create and return our iTunes friendly URL.

Now that our helper/private variables and function are in place, let’s add some properties to the ‘service’ object. Whatever we put on ‘service’ we’ll be able to directly use in whichever controller we pass ‘myFactory’ into.

We are going to create setArtist and getArtist methods that simply return or set the artist. We are also going to create a method that will call the iTunes API with our created URL. This method is going to return a promise that will fulfill once the data has come back from the iTunes API. If you haven’t had much experience using promises in Angular, I highly recommend doing a deep dive on them.

Below setArtist accepts an artist and allows you to set the artist. getArtist returns the artist callItunes first calls makeUrl() in order to build the URL we’ll use with our $http request. Then it sets up a promise object, makes an $http request with our final url, then because $http returns a promise, we are able to call .success or .error after our request. We then resolve our promise with the iTunes data, or we reject it with a message saying ‘There was an error’.

app.factory('myFactory', function($http, $q){
  var service = {};
  var baseUrl = 'https://itunes.apple.com/search?term=';
  var _artist = '';
  var _finalUrl = '';

  var makeUrl = function(){
    _artist = _artist.split(' ').join('+');
    _finalUrl = baseUrl + _artist + '&callback=JSON_CALLBACK'
    return _finalUrl;
  }

  service.setArtist = function(artist){
    _artist = artist;
  }

  service.getArtist = function(){
    return _artist;
  }

  service.callItunes = function(){
    makeUrl();
    var deferred = $q.defer();
    $http({
      method: 'JSONP',
      url: _finalUrl
    }).success(function(data){
      deferred.resolve(data);
    }).error(function(){
      deferred.reject('There was an error')
    })
    return deferred.promise;
  }

  return service;
});

Now our factory is complete. We are now able to inject ‘myFactory’ into any controller and we’ll then be able to call our methods that we attached to our service object (setArtist, getArtist, and callItunes).

app.controller('myFactoryCtrl', function($scope, myFactory){
  $scope.data = {};
  $scope.updateArtist = function(){
    myFactory.setArtist($scope.data.artist);
  };

  $scope.submitArtist = function(){
    myFactory.callItunes()
      .then(function(data){
        $scope.data.artistData = data;
      }, function(data){
        alert(data);
      })
  }
});

In the controller above we’re injecting in the ‘myFactory’ service. We then set properties on our $scope object that are coming from data from ‘myFactory’. The only tricky code above is if you’ve never dealt with promises before. Because callItunes is returning a promise, we are able to use the .then() method and only set $scope.data.artistData once our promise is fulfilled with the iTunes data. You’ll notice our controller is very ‘thin’. All of our logic and persistent data is located in our service, not in our controller.

2) Service
Perhaps the biggest thing to know when dealing with creating a Service is that that it’s instantiated with the ‘new’ keyword. For you JavaScript gurus this should give you a big hint into the nature of the code. For those of you with a limited background in JavaScript or for those who aren’t too familiar with what the ‘new’ keyword actually does, let’s review some JavaScript fundamentals that will eventually help us in understanding the nature of a Service.

To really see the changes that occur when you invoke a function with the ‘new’ keyword, let’s create a function and invoke it with the ‘new’ keyword, then let’s show what the interpreter does when it sees the ‘new’ keyword. The end results will both be the same.

First let’s create our Constructor.

var Person = function(name, age){
  this.name = name;
  this.age = age;
}

This is a typical JavaScript constructor function. Now whenever we invoke the Person function using the ‘new’ keyword, ‘this’ will be bound to the newly created object.

Now let’s add a method onto our Person’s prototype so it will be available on every instance of our Person ‘class’.

Person.prototype.sayName = function(){
  alert('My name is ' + this.name);
}

Now, because we put the sayName function on the prototype, every instance of Person will be able to call the sayName function in order alert that instance’s name.

Now that we have our Person constructor function and our sayName function on its prototype, let’s actually create an instance of Person then call the sayName function.

var tyler = new Person('Tyler', 23);
tyler.sayName(); //alerts 'My name is Tyler'

So all together the code for creating a Person constructor, adding a function to it’s prototype, creating a Person instance, and then calling the function on its prototype looks like this.

var Person = function(name, age){
  this.name = name;
  this.age = age;
}
Person.prototype.sayName = function(){
  alert('My name is ' + this.name);
}
var tyler = new Person('Tyler', 23);
tyler.sayName(); //alerts 'My name is Tyler'

Now let’s look at what actually is happening when you use the ‘new’ keyword in JavaScript. First thing you should notice is that after using ‘new’ in our example, we’re able to call a method (sayName) on ‘tyler’ just as if it were an object - that’s because it is. So first, we know that our Person constructor is returning an object, whether we can see that in the code or not. Second, we know that because our sayName function is located on the prototype and not directly on the Person instance, the object that the Person function is returning must be delegating to its prototype on failed lookups. In more simple terms, when we call tyler.sayName() the interpreter says “OK, I’m going to look on the ‘tyler’ object we just created, locate the sayName function, then call it. Wait a minute, I don’t see it here - all I see is name and age, let me check the prototype. Yup, looks like it’s on the prototype, let me call it.”.

Below is code for how you can think about what the ‘new’ keyword is actually doing in JavaScript. It’s basically a code example of the above paragraph. I’ve put the ‘interpreter view’ or the way the interpreter sees the code inside of notes.

var Person = function(name, age){
  //The line below this creates an obj object that will delegate to the person's prototype on failed lookups.
  //var obj = Object.create(Person.prototype);

  //The line directly below this sets 'this' to the newly created object
  //this = obj;

  this.name = name;
  this.age = age;

  //return this;
}

Now having this knowledge of what the ‘new’ keyword really does in JavaScript, creating a Service in Angular should be easier to understand.

The biggest thing to understand when creating a Service is knowing that Services are instantiated with the ‘new’ keyword. Combining that knowledge with our examples above, you should now recognize that you’ll be attaching your properties and methods directly to ‘this’ which will then be returned from the Service itself. Let’s take a look at this in action.

Unlike what we originally did with the Factory example, we don’t need to create an object then return that object because, like mentioned many times before, we used the ‘new’ keyword so the interpreter will create that object, have it delegate to it’s prototype, then return it for us without us having to do the work.

First things first, let’s create our ‘private’ and helper function. This should look very familiar since we did the exact same thing with our factory. I won’t explain what each line does here because I did that in the factory example, if you’re confused, re-read the factory example.

app.service('myService', function($http, $q){
  var baseUrl = 'https://itunes.apple.com/search?term=';
  var _artist = '';
  var _finalUrl = '';

  var makeUrl = function(){
    _artist = _artist.split(' ').join('+');
    _finalUrl = baseUrl + _artist + '&callback=JSON_CALLBACK'
    return _finalUrl;
  }
});

Now, we’ll attach all of our methods that will be available in our controller to ‘this’.

app.service('myService', function($http, $q){
  var baseUrl = 'https://itunes.apple.com/search?term=';
  var _artist = '';
  var _finalUrl = '';

  var makeUrl = function(){
    _artist = _artist.split(' ').join('+');
    _finalUrl = baseUrl + _artist + '&callback=JSON_CALLBACK'
    return _finalUrl;
  }

  this.setArtist = function(artist){
    _artist = artist;
  }

  this.getArtist = function(){
    return _artist;
  }

  this.callItunes = function(){
    makeUrl();
    var deferred = $q.defer();
    $http({
      method: 'JSONP',
      url: _finalUrl
    }).success(function(data){
      deferred.resolve(data);
    }).error(function(){
      deferred.reject('There was an error')
    })
    return deferred.promise;
  }

});

Now just like in our factory, setArtist, getArtist, and callItunes will be available in whichever controller we pass myService into. Here’s the myService controller (which is almost exactly the same as our factory controller).

app.controller('myServiceCtrl', function($scope, myService){
  $scope.data = {};
  $scope.updateArtist = function(){
    myService.setArtist($scope.data.artist);
  };

  $scope.submitArtist = function(){
    myService.callItunes()
      .then(function(data){
        $scope.data.artistData = data;
      }, function(data){
        alert(data);
      })
  }
});

Like I mentioned before, once you really understand what ‘new’ does, Services are almost identical to factories in Angular.

Entity Framework 6 GUID as primary key: Cannot insert the value NULL into column 'Id', table 'FileStore'; column does not allow nulls

Entity Framework – Use a Guid as the primary key

Using a Guid as your tables primary key, when using Entity Framework, requires a little more effort than when using a integer. The setup process is straightforward, after you’ve read/been shown how to do it.

The process is slightly different for the Code First and Database First approaches. This post discusses both techniques.

enter image description here

Code First

Using a Guid as the primary key when taking the code first approach is simple. When creating your entity, add the DatabaseGenerated attribute to your primary key property, as shown below;

[DatabaseGenerated(DatabaseGeneratedOption.Identity)]
public Guid Id { get; set; }

Entity framework will create the column as you would expect, with a primary key and uniqueidentifier data type.

codefirst-defaultvalue

Also notice, very important, that the default value on the column has been set to (newsequentialid()). This generates a new sequential (continuous) Guid for each row. If you were so inclined, you could change this to newid()), which would result in a completely random Guid for each new row. This will be cleared each time your database gets dropped and re-created, so this works better when taking the Database First approach.

Database First

The database first approach follows a similar line to the code first approach, but you’ll have to manually edit your model to make it work.

Ensure that you edit the primary key column and add the (newsequentialid()) or (newid()) function as the default value before doing anything.

enter image description here

Next, open you EDMX diagram, select the appropriate property and open the properties window. Ensure that StoreGeneratedPattern is set to identity.

databasefirst-model

No need to give your entity an ID in your code, that will be populated for you automatically after the entity has been commited to the database;

using (ApplicationDbContext context = new ApplicationDbContext())
{
    var person = new Person
                     {
                         FirstName = "Random",
                         LastName = "Person";
                     };

    context.People.Add(person);
    context.SaveChanges();
    Console.WriteLine(person.Id);
}

Important Note: Your Guid field MUST be a primary key, or this does not work. Entity Framework will give you a rather cryptic error message!

Summary

Guid (Globally Unique Identifiers) can easily be used as primary keys in Entity Framework. A little extra effort is required to do this, depending on which approach you are taking. When using the code first approach, add the DatabaseGenerated attribute to your key field. When taking the Database First approach, explicitly set the StoredGeneratedPattern to Identity on your model.

C subscripted value is neither array nor pointer nor vector when assigning an array element value

You have "int* arr" so "arr[n]" is an int, right? Then your "[M - 1 + 1]" bit is trying to use that int as an array/pointer/vector.

Correct format specifier for double in printf

Format %lf is a perfectly correct printf format for double, exactly as you used it. There's nothing wrong with your code.

Format %lf in printf was not supported in old (pre-C99) versions of C language, which created superficial "inconsistency" between format specifiers for double in printf and scanf. That superficial inconsistency has been fixed in C99.

You are not required to use %lf with double in printf. You can use %f as well, if you so prefer (%lf and %f are equivalent in printf). But in modern C it makes perfect sense to prefer to use %f with float, %lf with double and %Lf with long double, consistently in both printf and scanf.

Extract XML Value in bash script

As Charles Duffey has stated, XML parsers are best parsed with a proper XML parsing tools. For one time job the following should work.

grep -oPm1 "(?<=<title>)[^<]+"

Test:

$ echo "$data"
<item> 
  <title>15:54:57 - George:</title>
  <description>Diane DeConn? You saw Diane DeConn!</description> 
</item> 
<item> 
  <title>15:55:17 - Jerry:</title> 
  <description>Something huh?</description>
$ title=$(grep -oPm1 "(?<=<title>)[^<]+" <<< "$data")
$ echo "$title"
15:54:57 - George:

Set style for TextView programmatically

Parameter int defStyleAttr does not specifies the style. From the Android documentation:

defStyleAttr - An attribute in the current theme that contains a reference to a style resource that supplies default values for the view. Can be 0 to not look for defaults.

To setup the style in View constructor we have 2 possible solutions:

  1. With use of ContextThemeWrapper:

    ContextThemeWrapper wrappedContext = new ContextThemeWrapper(yourContext, R.style.your_style);
    TextView textView = new TextView(wrappedContext, null, 0);
    
  2. With four-argument constructor (available starting from LOLLIPOP):

    TextView textView = new TextView(yourContext, null, 0, R.style.your_style);
    

Key thing for both solutions - defStyleAttr parameter should be 0 to apply our style to the view.

How to convert xml into array in php?

Another option is the SimpleXML extension (I believe it comes standard with most php installs.)

http://php.net/manual/en/book.simplexml.php

The syntax looks something like this for your example

$xml = new SimpleXMLElement($xmlString);
echo $xml->bbb->cccc->dddd['Id'];
echo $xml->bbb->cccc->eeee['name'];
// or...........
foreach ($xml->bbb->cccc as $element) {
  foreach($element as $key => $val) {
   echo "{$key}: {$val}";
  }
}

Remove pandas rows with duplicate indices

Oh my. This is actually so simple!

grouped = df3.groupby(level=0)
df4 = grouped.last()
df4
                      A   B  rownum

2001-01-01 01:00:00   1   1       7
2001-01-01 02:00:00   2   2       8
2001-01-01 03:00:00   3   3       3

Follow up edit 2013-10-29 In the case where I have a fairly complex MultiIndex, I think I prefer the groupby approach. Here's simple example for posterity:

import numpy as np
import pandas

# fake index
idx = pandas.MultiIndex.from_tuples([('a', letter) for letter in list('abcde')])

# random data + naming the index levels
df1 = pandas.DataFrame(np.random.normal(size=(5,2)), index=idx, columns=['colA', 'colB'])
df1.index.names = ['iA', 'iB']

# artificially append some duplicate data
df1 = df1.append(df1.select(lambda idx: idx[1] in ['c', 'e']))
df1
#           colA      colB
#iA iB                    
#a  a  -1.297535  0.691787
#   b  -1.688411  0.404430
#   c   0.275806 -0.078871
#   d  -0.509815 -0.220326
#   e  -0.066680  0.607233
#   c   0.275806 -0.078871  # <--- dup 1
#   e  -0.066680  0.607233  # <--- dup 2

and here's the important part

# group the data, using df1.index.names tells pandas to look at the entire index
groups = df1.groupby(level=df1.index.names)  
groups.last() # or .first()
#           colA      colB
#iA iB                    
#a  a  -1.297535  0.691787
#   b  -1.688411  0.404430
#   c   0.275806 -0.078871
#   d  -0.509815 -0.220326
#   e  -0.066680  0.607233

Linking a UNC / Network drive on an html page

To link to a UNC path from an HTML document, use file:///// (yes, that's five slashes).

file://///server/path/to/file.txt

Note that this is most useful in IE and Outlook/Word. It won't work in Chrome or Firefox, intentionally - the link will fail silently. Some words from the Mozilla team:

For security purposes, Mozilla applications block links to local files (and directories) from remote files.

And less directly, from Google:

Firefox and Chrome doesn't open "file://" links from pages that originated from outside the local machine. This is a design decision made by those browsers to improve security.

The Mozilla article includes a set of client settings you can use to override this behavior in Firefox, and there are extensions for both browsers to override this restriction.

MySQL default datetime through phpmyadmin

I don't think you can achieve that with mysql date. You have to use timestamp or try this approach..

Twitter Bootstrap scrollable table rows and fixed header

Just stack two bootstrap tables; one for columns, the other for content. No plugins, just pure bootstrap (and that ain't no bs, haha!)

  <table id="tableHeader" class="table" style="table-layout:fixed">
        <thead>
            <tr>
                <th>Col1</th>
                ...
            </tr>
        </thead>
  </table>
  <div style="overflow-y:auto;">
    <table id="tableData" class="table table-condensed" style="table-layout:fixed">
        <tbody>
            <tr>
                <td>data</td>
                ...
            </tr>
        </tbody>
    </table>
 </div>

Demo JSFiddle

The content table div needs overflow-y:auto, for vertical scroll bars. Had to use table-layout:fixed, otherwise, columns did not line up. Also, had to put the whole thing inside a bootstrap panel to eliminate space between the tables.

Have not tested with custom column widths, but provided you keep the widths consistent between the tables, it should work.

    // ADD THIS JS FUNCTION TO MATCH UP COL WIDTHS
    $(function () {

        //copy width of header cells to match width of cells with data
        //so they line up properly
        var tdHeader = document.getElementById("tableHeader").rows[0].cells;
        var tdData = document.getElementById("tableData").rows[0].cells;

        for (var i = 0; i < tdData.length; i++)
            tdHeader[i].style.width = tdData[i].offsetWidth + 'px';

    });

INSERT INTO TABLE from comma separated varchar-list

Sql Server does not (on my knowledge) have in-build Split function. Split function in general on all platforms would have comma-separated string value to be split into individual strings. In sql server, the main objective or necessary of the Split function is to convert a comma-separated string value (‘abc,cde,fgh’) into a temp table with each string as rows.

The below Split function is Table-valued function which would help us splitting comma-separated (or any other delimiter value) string to individual string.

CREATE FUNCTION dbo.Split(@String varchar(8000), @Delimiter char(1))       
returns @temptable TABLE (items varchar(8000))       
as       
begin       
    declare @idx int       
    declare @slice varchar(8000)       

    select @idx = 1       
        if len(@String)<1 or @String is null  return       

    while @idx!= 0       
    begin       
        set @idx = charindex(@Delimiter,@String)       
        if @idx!=0       
            set @slice = left(@String,@idx - 1)       
        else       
            set @slice = @String       

        if(len(@slice)>0)  
            insert into @temptable(Items) values(@slice)       

        set @String = right(@String,len(@String) - @idx)       
        if len(@String) = 0 break       
    end   
return       
end

Pandas left outer join multiple dataframes on multiple columns

Merge them in two steps, df1 and df2 first, and then the result of that to df3.

In [33]: s1 = pd.merge(df1, df2, how='left', on=['Year', 'Week', 'Colour'])

I dropped year from df3 since you don't need it for the last join.

In [39]: df = pd.merge(s1, df3[['Week', 'Colour', 'Val3']],
                       how='left', on=['Week', 'Colour'])

In [40]: df
Out[40]: 
   Year Week Colour  Val1  Val2 Val3

How to capture a backspace on the onkeydown event

Nowadays, code to do this should look something like:

document.getElementById('foo').addEventListener('keydown', function (event) {
    if (event.keyCode == 8) {
        console.log('BACKSPACE was pressed');

        // Call event.preventDefault() to stop the character before the cursor
        // from being deleted. Remove this line if you don't want to do that.
        event.preventDefault();
    }
    if (event.keyCode == 46) {
        console.log('DELETE was pressed');

        // Call event.preventDefault() to stop the character after the cursor
        // from being deleted. Remove this line if you don't want to do that.
        event.preventDefault();
    }
});

although in the future, once they are broadly supported in browsers, you may want to use the .key or .code attributes of the KeyboardEvent instead of the deprecated .keyCode.

Details worth knowing:

  • Calling event.preventDefault() in the handler of a keydown event will prevent the default effects of the keypress. When pressing a character, this stops it from being typed into the active text field. When pressing backspace or delete in a text field, it prevents a character from being deleted. When pressing backspace without an active text field, in a browser like Chrome where backspace takes you back to the previous page, it prevents that behaviour (as long as you catch the event by adding your event listener to document instead of a text field).

  • Documentation on how the value of the keyCode attribute is determined can be found in section B.2.1 How to determine keyCode for keydown and keyup events in the W3's UI Events Specification. In particular, the codes for Backspace and Delete are listed in B.2.3 Fixed virtual key codes.

  • There is an effort underway to deprecate the .keyCode attribute in favour of .key and .code. The W3 describe the .keyCode property as "legacy", and MDN as "deprecated".

    One benefit of the change to .key and .code is having more powerful and programmer-friendly handling of non-ASCII keys - see the specification that lists all the possible key values, which are human-readable strings like "Backspace" and "Delete" and include values for everything from modifier keys specific to Japanese keyboards to obscure media keys. Another, which is highly relevant to this question, is distinguishing between the meaning of a modified keypress and the physical key that was pressed.

    On small Mac keyboards, there is no Delete key, only a Backspace key. However, pressing Fn+Backspace is equivalent to pressing Delete on a normal keyboard - that is, it deletes the character after the text cursor instead of the one before it. Depending upon your use case, in code you might want to handle a press of Backspace with Fn held down as either Backspace or Delete. That's why the new key model lets you choose.

    The .key attribute gives you the meaning of the keypress, so Fn+Backspace will yield the string "Delete". The .code attribute gives you the physical key, so Fn+Backspace will still yield the string "Backspace".

    Unfortunately, as of writing this answer, they're only supported in 18% of browsers, so if you need broad compatibility you're stuck with the "legacy" .keyCode attribute for the time being. But if you're a reader from the future, or if you're targeting a specific platform and know it supports the new interface, then you could write code that looked something like this:

    document.getElementById('foo').addEventListener('keydown', function (event) {
        if (event.code == 'Delete') {
            console.log('The physical key pressed was the DELETE key');
        }
        if (event.code == 'Backspace') {
            console.log('The physical key pressed was the BACKSPACE key');
        } 
        if (event.key == 'Delete') {
            console.log('The keypress meant the same as pressing DELETE');
            // This can happen for one of two reasons:
            // 1. The user pressed the DELETE key
            // 2. The user pressed FN+BACKSPACE on a small Mac keyboard where
            //    FN+BACKSPACE deletes the character in front of the text cursor,
            //    instead of the one behind it.
        }
        if (event.key == 'Backspace') {
            console.log('The keypress meant the same as pressing BACKSPACE');
        }
    });
    

Java: Retrieving an element from a HashSet

If I know for sure in my application that the object is not used in search in any of the list or hash data structure and not used equals method elsewhere except the one used indirectly in hash data structure while adding. Is it advisable to update the existing object in set in equals method. Refer the below code. If I add the this bean to HashSet, I can do group aggregation on the matching object on key (id). By this way I am able to achieve aggregation functions such as sum, max, min, ... as well. If not advisable, please feel free to share me your thoughts.

public class MyBean {

    String id,
           name;
    double amountSpent;

    @Override
    public int hashCode() {
        return id.hashCode();
    }

    @Override
    public boolean equals(Object obj) {
        if(obj!=null && obj instanceof MyBean ) {
            MyBean tmpObj = (MyBean) obj;
            if(tmpObj.id!=null && tmpObj.id.equals(this.id)) {
                tmpObj.amountSpent += this.amountSpent;
                return true;
            }
        }
        return false;
    }
}

Formatting a Date String in React Native

There is no need to include a bulky library such as Moment.js to fix such a simple issue.

The issue you are facing is not with formatting, but with parsing.

As John Shammas mentions in another answer, the Date constructor (and Date.parse) are picky about the input. Your 2016-01-04 10:34:23 may work in one JavaScript implementation, but not necessarily in the other.

According to the specification of ECMAScript 5.1, Date.parse supports (a simplification of) ISO 8601. That's good news, because your date is already very ISO 8601-like.

All you have to do is change the input format just a little. Swap the space for a T: 2016-01-04T10:34:23; and optionally add a time zone (2016-01-04T10:34:23+01:00), otherwise UTC is assumed.

Nginx Different Domains on Same IP

Your "listen" directives are wrong. See this page: http://nginx.org/en/docs/http/server_names.html.

They should be

server {
    listen      80;
    server_name www.domain1.com;
    root /var/www/domain1;
}

server {
    listen       80;
    server_name www.domain2.com;
    root /var/www/domain2;
}

Note, I have only included the relevant lines. Everything else looked okay but I just deleted it for clarity. To test it you might want to try serving a text file from each server first before actually serving php. That's why I left the 'root' directive in there.

How to beautifully update a JPA entity in Spring Data?

I have encountered this issue!
Luckily, I determine 2 ways and understand some things but the rest is not clear.
Hope someone discuss or support if you know.

  1. Use RepositoryExtendJPA.save(entity).
    Example:
    List<Person> person = this.PersonRepository.findById(0) person.setName("Neo"); This.PersonReository.save(person);
    this block code updated new name for record which has id = 0;
  2. Use @Transactional from javax or spring framework.
    Let put @Transactional upon your class or specified function, both are ok.
    I read at somewhere that this annotation do a "commit" action at the end your function flow. So, every things you modified at entity would be updated to database.

Text File Parsing with Python

There are a few ways to go about this. One option would be to use inputfile.read() instead of inputfile.readlines() - you'd need to write separate code to strip the first four lines, but if you want the final output as a single string anyway, this might make the most sense.

A second, simpler option would be to rejoin the strings after striping the first four lines with my_text = ''.join(my_text). This is a little inefficient, but if speed isn't a major concern, the code will be simplest.

Finally, if you actually want the output as a list of strings instead of a single string, you can just modify your data parser to iterate over the list. That might looks something like this:

def data_parser(lines, dic):
    for i, j in dic.iteritems():
        for (k, line) in enumerate(lines):
            lines[k] = line.replace(i, j)
    return lines

Server returned HTTP response code: 401 for URL: https

Try This. You need pass the authentication to let the server know its a valid user. You need to import these two packages and has to include a jersy jar. If you dont want to include jersy jar then import this package

import sun.misc.BASE64Encoder;

import com.sun.jersey.core.util.Base64;
import sun.net.www.protocol.http.HttpURLConnection;

and then,

String encodedAuthorizedUser = getAuthantication("username", "password");
URL url = new URL("Your Valid Jira URL");
HttpURLConnection httpCon = (HttpURLConnection) url.openConnection();
httpCon.setRequestProperty ("Authorization", "Basic " + encodedAuthorizedUser );

 public String getAuthantication(String username, String password) {
   String auth = new String(Base64.encode(username + ":" + password));
   return auth;
 }

Eclipse, regular expression search and replace

At least at STS (SpringSource Tool Suite) groups are numbered starting form 0, so replace string will be

replace: ((TypeName)$0)

In C#, should I use string.Empty or String.Empty or "" to intitialize a string?

Just about every developer out there will know what "" means. I personally encountered String.Empty the first time and had to spend some time searching google to figure out if they really are the exact same thing.

Python base64 data decode

Note Slipstream's response, that base64.b64encode and base64.b64decode need bytes-like object, not string.

How to indent a few lines in Markdown markup?

There's no way to do that in markdown's native features. However markdown allows inline HTML, so writing

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;This will appear with six space characters in front of it

will produce:

      This will appear with six space characters in front of it

If you have control over CSS on the page, you could also use a tag and style it, either inline or with CSS rules.

Either way, markdown is not meant as a tool for layout, it is meant to simplify the process of writing for the web, so if you find yourself stretching its feature set to do what you need, you might look at whether or not you're using the right tool here. Check out Gruber's docs:

http://daringfireball.net/projects/markdown/syntax#html

What exactly does an #if 0 ..... #endif block do?

It's identical to commenting out the block, except with one important difference: Nesting is not a problem. Consider this code:

foo();
bar(x, y); /* x must not be NULL */
baz();

If I want to comment it out, I might try:

/*
foo();
bar(x, y); /* x must not be NULL */
baz();
*/

Bzzt. Syntax error! Why? Because block comments do not nest, and so (as you can see from SO's syntax highlighting) the */ after the word "NULL" terminates the comment, making the baz call not commented out, and the */ after baz a syntax error. On the other hand:

#if 0
foo();
bar(x, y); /* x must not be NULL */
baz();
#endif

Works to comment out the entire thing. And the #if 0s will nest with each other, like so:

#if 0
pre_foo();
#if 0
foo();
bar(x, y); /* x must not be NULL */
baz();
#endif
quux();
#endif

Although of course this can get a bit confusing and become a maintenance headache if not commented properly.

What is the difference between URI, URL and URN?

URL -- Uniform Resource Locator

Contains information about how to fetch a resource from its location. For example:

  • http://example.com/mypage.html
  • ftp://example.com/download.zip
  • mailto:[email protected]
  • file:///home/user/file.txt
  • http://example.com/resource?foo=bar#fragment
  • /other/link.html (A relative URL, only useful in the context of another URL)

URLs always start with a protocol (http) and usually contain information such as the network host name (example.com) and often a document path (/foo/mypage.html). URLs may have query parameters and fragment identifiers.

URN -- Uniform Resource Name

Identifies a resource by name. It always starts with the prefix urn: For example:

  • urn:isbn:0451450523 to identify a book by its ISBN number.
  • urn:uuid:6e8bc430-9c3a-11d9-9669-0800200c9a66 a globally unique identifier
  • urn:publishing:book - An XML namespace that identifies the document as a type of book.

URNs can identify ideas and concepts. They are not restricted to identifying documents. When a URN does represent a document, it can be translated into a URL by a "resolver". The document can then be downloaded from the URL.

URI -- Uniform Resource Identifier

URIs encompasses both URLs, URNs, and other ways to indicate a resource.

An example of a URI that is neither a URL nor a URN would be a data URI such as data:,Hello%20World. It is not a URL or URN because the URI contains the data. It neither names it, nor tells you how to locate it over the network.

There are also uniform resource citations (URCs) that point to meta data about a document rather than to the document itself. An example of a URC would be an indicator for viewing the source code of a web page: view-source:http://example.com/. A URC is another type of URI that is neither URL nor URN.

Frequently Asked Questions

I've heard that I shouldn't say URL anymore, why?

The w3 spec for HTML says that the href of an anchor tag can contain a URI, not just a URL. You should be able to put in a URN such as <a href="urn:isbn:0451450523">. Your browser would then resolve that URN to a URL and download the book for you.

Do any browsers actually know how to fetch documents by URN?

Not that I know of, but modern web browser do implement the data URI scheme.

Can a URI be both a URL and a URN?

Good question. I've seen lots of places on the web that state this is true. I haven't been able to find any examples of something that is both a URL and a URN. I don't see how it is possible because a URN starts with urn: which is not a valid network protocol.

Does the difference between URL and URI have anything to do with whether it is relative or absolute?

No. Both relative and absolute URLs are URLs (and URIs.)

Does the difference between URL and URI have anything to do with whether it has query parameters?

No. Both URLs with and without query parameters are URLs (and URIs.)

Does the difference between URL and URI have anything to do with whether it has a fragment identifier?

No. Both URLs with and without fragment identifiers are URLs (and URIs.)

Is a tel: URI a URL or a URN?

For example tel:1-800-555-5555. It doesn't start with urn: and it has a protocol for reaching a resource over a network. It must be a URL.

But doesn't the w3C now say that URLs and URIs are the same thing?

Yes. The W3C realized that there is a ton of confusion about this. They issued a URI clarification document that says that it is now OK to use URL and URI interchangeably. It is no longer useful to strictly segment URIs into different types such as URL, URN, and URC.

How to edit the legend entry of a chart in Excel?

There are 3 ways to do this:

1. Define the Series names directly

Right-click on the Chart and click Select Data then edit the series names directly as shown below.

enter image description here

You can either specify the values directly e.g. Series 1 or specify a range e.g. =A2

enter image description here

2. Create a chart defining upfront the series and axis labels

Simply select your data range (in similar format as I specified) and create a simple bar chart. The labels should be defined automatically. enter image description here

3. Define the legend (series names) using VBA

Similarly you can define the series names dynamically using VBA. A simple example below:

ActiveChart.ChartArea.Select
ActiveChart.FullSeriesCollection(1).Name = "=""Hello"""

This will redefine the first series name. Just change the index from (1) to e.g. (2) and so on to change the following series names. What does the VBA above do? It sets the series name to Hello as "=""Hello""" translates to ="Hello" (" have to be escaped by a preceding ").

How to write super-fast file-streaming code in C#?

The fastest way to do file I/O from C# is to use the Windows ReadFile and WriteFile functions. I have written a C# class that encapsulates this capability as well as a benchmarking program that looks at differnet I/O methods, including BinaryReader and BinaryWriter. See my blog post at:

http://designingefficientsoftware.wordpress.com/2011/03/03/efficient-file-io-from-csharp/

TypeError: unhashable type: 'list' when using built-in set function

Sets require their items to be hashable. Out of types predefined by Python only the immutable ones, such as strings, numbers, and tuples, are hashable. Mutable types, such as lists and dicts, are not hashable because a change of their contents would change the hash and break the lookup code.

Since you're sorting the list anyway, just place the duplicate removal after the list is already sorted. This is easy to implement, doesn't increase algorithmic complexity of the operation, and doesn't require changing sublists to tuples:

def uniq(lst):
    last = object()
    for item in lst:
        if item == last:
            continue
        yield item
        last = item

def sort_and_deduplicate(l):
    return list(uniq(sorted(l, reverse=True)))

How to check if a user is logged in (how to properly use user.is_authenticated)?

Following block should work:

    {% if user.is_authenticated %}
        <p>Welcome {{ user.username }} !!!</p>       
    {% endif %}

Run a JAR file from the command line and specify classpath

Alternatively, use the manifest to specify the class-path and main-class if you like, so then you don't need to use -cp or specify the main class. In your case it would contain lines like this:

Main-Class: com.test.App
Class-Path: lib/one.jar lib/two.jar

Unfortunately you need to spell out each jar in the manifest (not a biggie as you only do once, and you can use a script to build the file or use a build tool like ANT or Maven or Gradle). And the reference has to be a relative or absolute directory to where you run the java -jar MyJar.jar.

Then execute it with

java -jar MyJar.jar

Disable Auto Zoom in Input "Text" tag - Safari on iPhone

@media screen and (-webkit-min-device-pixel-ratio:0) { 
  select:focus,
  textarea:focus,
  input:focus {
    font-size: 16px;
    background: #eee;
  }
}

New: IOS will still zoom, unless you use 16px on the input without the focus.

@media screen and (-webkit-min-device-pixel-ratio:0) { 
  select,
  textarea,
  input {
    font-size: 16px;
  }
}

I added a background since IOS adds no background on the select.

What's the best way to share data between activities?

If your intention is to call other Activities from the current Activity, you should use Intents. Your focus could be less on persisting data than on sharing it on an as-needed basis.

However, if you really need to persist these values then you could persist them in some kind of structured text file or database on local storage. A properties file, XML file, or JSON file could store your data and be easily parsed during activity creation. Don't forget also that you have SQLite on all Android devices, so you could store them in a database table. You could also use a Map to store key-value pairs and serialize the map to local storage, but this might be too cumbersome to be useful for simple data structures.

what is the use of fflush(stdin) in c programming

It's not in standard C, so the behavior is undefined.

Some implementation uses it to clear stdin buffer.

From C11 7.21.5.2 The fflush function, fflush works only with output/update stream, not input stream.

If stream points to an output stream or an update stream in which the most recent operation was not input, the fflush function causes any unwritten data for that stream to be delivered to the host environment to be written to the file; otherwise, the behavior is undefined.

What are all the uses of an underscore in Scala?

There is a specific example that "_" be used:

  type StringMatcher = String => (String => Boolean)

  def starts: StringMatcher = (prefix:String) => _ startsWith prefix

may be equal to :

  def starts: StringMatcher = (prefix:String) => (s)=>s startsWith prefix

Applying “_” in some scenarios will automatically convert to “(x$n) => x$n ”

Setting action for back button in navigation controller

Using Swift:

override func viewWillDisappear(animated: Bool) {
    super.viewWillDisappear(animated)
    if self.navigationController?.topViewController != self {
        print("back button tapped")
    }
}

Sum values from an array of key-value pairs in JavaScript

The javascript built-in reduce for Arrays is not a standard, but you can use underscore.js:

var data = _.range(10);
var sum = _(data).reduce(function(memo, i) {return memo + i});

which becomes

var sumMyData = _(myData).reduce(function(memo, i) {return memo + i[1]}, 0);

for your case. Have a look at this fiddle also.

Applications are expected to have a root view controller at the end of application launch

In my case, everything about the actual window and the didFinishLaunchingWithOptions: method was fine.

My error was that I didn't realize applicationDidBecomeActive: runs on startup in addition to when the app is coming to the foreground after having been in the background.

Therefore, in applicationDidBecomeActive: I was manipulating view controllers that hadn't finished all their setup yet (waiting for different threads to respond, etc).

Once I moved this functionality outside of applicationDidBecomeActive, the errors went away.

How to find the serial port number on Mac OS X?

How to interpolate variables in strings in JavaScript, without concatenation?

Create a method similar to String.format() of Java

StringJoin=(s, r=[])=>{
  r.map((v,i)=>{

  })
return s
}

use

console.log(StringJoin('I can %1 a %2',['create','method'])) //output: 'I can create a method'

Java 8 Lambda Stream forEach with multiple statements

You don't have to cram multiple operations into one stream/lambda. Consider separating them into 2 statements (using static import of toList()):

entryList.forEach(e->e.setTempId(tempId));

List<Entry> updatedEntries = entryList.stream()
  .map(e->entityManager.update(entry, entry.getId()))
  .collect(toList());

How to pass data from Javascript to PHP and vice versa?

I run into a similar issue the other day. Say, I want to pass data from client side to server and write the data into a log file. Here is my solution:

My simple client side code:

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN"   "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd">
<html>
<head>
   <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1" />
   <script src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.9.1/jquery.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
   <title>Test Page</title>
   <script>
    function passVal(){
        var data = {
            fn: "filename",
            str: "this_is_a_dummy_test_string"
        };

        $.post("test.php", data);
    }
    passVal();
   </script>

</head>
<body>
</body>
</html>

And php code on server side:

<?php 
   $fn  = $_POST['fn'];
   $str = $_POST['str'];
   $file = fopen("/opt/lampp/htdocs/passVal/".$fn.".record","w");
   echo fwrite($file,$str);
   fclose($file);
?>

Hope this works for you and future readers!

how to set ul/li bullet point color?

I believe this is controlled by the css color property applied to the element.

python: [Errno 10054] An existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote host

For me this problem arised while trying to connect to the SAP Hana database. When I got this error,

OperationalError: Lost connection to HANA server (ConnectionResetError(10054, 'An existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote host', None, 10054, None))

I tried to run the code for connection(mentioned below), which created that error, again and it worked.


    import pyhdb
    connection = pyhdb.connect(host="example.com",port=30015,user="user",password="secret")
    cursor = connection.cursor()
    cursor.execute("SELECT 'Hello Python World' FROM DUMMY")
    cursor.fetchone()
    connection.close()

It was because the server refused to connect. It might require you to wait for a while and try again. Try closing the Hana Studio by logging off and then logging in again. Keep running the code for a number of times.

Create Pandas DataFrame from a string

This answer applies when a string is manually entered, not when it's read from somewhere.

A traditional variable-width CSV is unreadable for storing data as a string variable. Especially for use inside a .py file, consider fixed-width pipe-separated data instead. Various IDEs and editors may have a plugin to format pipe-separated text into a neat table.

Using read_csv

Store the following in a utility module, e.g. util/pandas.py. An example is included in the function's docstring.

import io
import re

import pandas as pd


def read_psv(str_input: str, **kwargs) -> pd.DataFrame:
    """Read a Pandas object from a pipe-separated table contained within a string.

    Input example:
        | int_score | ext_score | eligible |
        |           | 701       | True     |
        | 221.3     | 0         | False    |
        |           | 576       | True     |
        | 300       | 600       | True     |

    The leading and trailing pipes are optional, but if one is present,
    so must be the other.

    `kwargs` are passed to `read_csv`. They must not include `sep`.

    In PyCharm, the "Pipe Table Formatter" plugin has a "Format" feature that can 
    be used to neatly format a table.

    Ref: https://stackoverflow.com/a/46471952/
    """

    substitutions = [
        ('^ *', ''),  # Remove leading spaces
        (' *$', ''),  # Remove trailing spaces
        (r' *\| *', '|'),  # Remove spaces between columns
    ]
    if all(line.lstrip().startswith('|') and line.rstrip().endswith('|') for line in str_input.strip().split('\n')):
        substitutions.extend([
            (r'^\|', ''),  # Remove redundant leading delimiter
            (r'\|$', ''),  # Remove redundant trailing delimiter
        ])
    for pattern, replacement in substitutions:
        str_input = re.sub(pattern, replacement, str_input, flags=re.MULTILINE)
    return pd.read_csv(io.StringIO(str_input), sep='|', **kwargs)

Non-working alternatives

The code below doesn't work properly because it adds an empty column on both the left and right sides.

df = pd.read_csv(io.StringIO(df_str), sep=r'\s*\|\s*', engine='python')

As for read_fwf, it doesn't actually use so many of the optional kwargs that read_csv accepts and uses. As such, it shouldn't be used at all for pipe-separated data.

Module not found: Error: Can't resolve 'core-js/es6'

Ended up to have a file named polyfill.js in projectpath\src\polyfill.js That file only contains this line: import 'core-js'; this polyfills not only es-6, but is the correct way to use core-js since version 3.0.0.

I added the polyfill.js to my webpack-file entry attribute like this:

entry: ['./src/main.scss', './src/polyfill.js', './src/main.jsx']

Works perfectly.

I also found some more information here : https://github.com/zloirock/core-js/issues/184

The library author (zloirock) claims:

ES6 changes behaviour almost all features added in ES5, so core-js/es6 entry point includes almost all of them. Also, as you wrote, it's required for fixing broken browser implementations.

(Quotation https://github.com/zloirock/core-js/issues/184 from zloirock)

So I think import 'core-js'; is just fine.

Hosting a Maven repository on github

Don't use GitHub as a Maven Repository.

Edit: This option gets a lot of down votes, but no comments as to why. This is the correct option regardless of the technical capabilities to actually host on GitHub. Hosting on GitHub is wrong for all the reasons outlined below and without comments I can't improve the answer to clarify your issues.

Best Option - Collaborate with the Original Project

The best option is to convince the original project to include your changes and stick with the original.

Alternative - Maintain your own Fork

Since you have forked an open source library, and your fork is also open source, you can upload your fork to Maven Central (read Guide to uploading artifacts to the Central Repository) by giving it a new groupId and maybe a new artifactId.

Only consider this option if you are willing to maintain this fork until the changes are incorporated into the original project and then you should abandon this one.

Really consider hard whether a fork is the right option. Read the myriad Google results for 'why not to fork'

Reasoning

Bloating your repository with jars increases download size for no benefit

A jar is an output of your project, it can be regenerated at any time from its inputs, and your GitHub repo should contain only inputs.

Don't believe me? Then check Google results for 'dont store binaries in git'.

GitHub's help Working with large files will tell you the same thing. Admittedly jar's aren't large but they are larger than the source code and once a jar has been created by a release they have no reason to be versioned - that is what a new release is for.

Defining multiple repos in your pom.xml slows your build down by Number of Repositories times Number of Artifacts

Stephen Connolly says:

If anyone adds your repo they impact their build performance as they now have another repo to check artifacts against... It's not a big problem if you only have to add one repo... But the problem grows and the next thing you know your maven build is checking 50 repos for every artifact and build time is a dog.

That's right! Maven needs to check every artifact (and its dependencies) defined in your pom.xml against every Repository you have defined, as a newer version might be available in any of those repositories.

Try it out for yourself and you will feel the pain of a slow build.

The best place for artifacts is in Maven Central, as its the central place for jars, and this means your build will only ever check one place.

You can read some more about repositories at Maven's documentation on Introduction to Repositories

How to view the assembly behind the code using Visual C++?

Additional note: there is big difference between Debug assembler output and Release one. The first one is good to learn how compiler produces assembler code from C++. The second one is good to learn how compiler optimizes various C++ constructs. In this case some C++-to-asm transformations are not obvious.

sex = 'male'
t  = (name, age, sex)
cursor.execute("insert into table values(%s,%d,%s)", t)

Setting graph figure size

I managed to get a good result with the following sequence (run Matlab twice at the beginning):

h = gcf; % Current figure handle
set(h,'Resize','off');
set(h,'PaperPositionMode','manual');
set(h,'PaperPosition',[0 0 9 6]);
set(h,'PaperUnits','centimeters');
set(h,'PaperSize',[9 6]); % IEEE columnwidth = 9cm
set(h,'Position',[0 0 9 6]);
% xpos, ypos must be set
txlabel = text(xpos,ypos,'$$[\mathrm{min}]$$','Interpreter','latex','FontSize',9);

% Dump colored encapsulated PostScript
print('-depsc2','-loose', 'signals');

What does @@variable mean in Ruby?

@@ denotes a class variable, i.e. it can be inherited.

This means that if you create a subclass of that class, it will inherit the variable. So if you have a class Vehicle with the class variable @@number_of_wheels then if you create a class Car < Vehicle then it too will have the class variable @@number_of_wheels

How to print all key and values from HashMap in Android?

For everyone who clicked on this to find out what the content of your HashMap is, the toString method (docs) actually works with most objects. (note: a java array is not an object!)

So this woks perfectly fine for debugging purposes:

System.out.println(myMap.toString());

>>> {key1=value1, key2=value2}

How to get the sign, mantissa and exponent of a floating point number

Cast a pointer to the floating point variable as something like an unsigned int. Then you can shift and mask the bits to get each component.

float foo;
unsigned int ival, mantissa, exponent, sign;

foo = -21.4f;
ival = *((unsigned int *)&foo);
mantissa = ( ival & 0x7FFFFF);
ival = ival >> 23;
exponent = ( ival  & 0xFF );
ival = ival >> 8;
sign = ( ival & 0x01 );

Obviously you probably wouldn't use unsigned ints for the exponent and sign bits but this should at least give you the idea.

Quick way to retrieve user information Active Directory

The reason why your code is slow is that your LDAP query retrieves every single user object in your domain even though you're only interested in one user with a common name of "Adit":

dSearcher.Filter = "(&(objectClass=user))";

So to optimize, you need to narrow your LDAP query to just the user you are interested in. Try something like:

dSearcher.Filter = "(&(objectClass=user)(cn=Adit))";

In addition, don't forget to dispose these objects when done:

  • DirectoryEntry dEntry
  • DirectorySearcher dSearcher
