Programs & Examples On #Radio button

Radio buttons are elements used in forms. They let a user select exactly one of a limited number of choices.

Jquery If radio button is checked

Try this:

if ( jQuery('#postageyes').is(':checked') ){ ... }

Show div when radio button selected

var switchData = $('#show-me');
switchData.hide();
$('input[type="radio"]').change(function(){ var inputData = $(this).attr("value");if(inputData == 'b') { switchData.show();}else{switchData.hide();}});

JSFIDDLE

Check a radio button with javascript

By using document.getElementById() function you don't have to pass # before element's id.

Code:

document.getElementById('_1234').checked = true;

Detect if a Form Control option button is selected in VBA

If you are using a Form Control, you can get the same property as ActiveX by using OLEFormat.Object property of the Shape Object. Better yet assign it in a variable declared as OptionButton to get the Intellisense kick in.

Dim opt As OptionButton

With Sheets("Sheet1") ' Try to be always explicit
    Set opt = .Shapes("Option Button 1").OLEFormat.Object ' Form Control
    Debug.Pring opt.Value ' returns 1 (true) or -4146 (false)
End With

But then again, you really don't need to know the value.
If you use Form Control, you associate a Macro or sub routine with it which is executed when it is selected. So you just need to set up a sub routine that identifies which button is clicked and then execute a corresponding action for it.

For example you have 2 Form Control Option Buttons.

Sub CheckOptions()
    Select Case Application.Caller
    Case "Option Button 1"
    ' Action for option button 1
    Case "Option Button 2"
    ' Action for option button 2
    End Select
End Sub

In above code, you have only one sub routine assigned to both option buttons.
Then you test which called the sub routine by checking Application.Caller.
This way, no need to check whether the option button value is true or false.

How to uncheck checked radio button

How to uncheck a radio button?

Try

$(this).removeAttr('checked')

Since a lot of browsers will interpret 'checked=anything' as true. This will remove the checked attribute altogether.

Hope this helps.

How to set OnClickListener on a RadioButton in Android?

Since this question isn't specific to Java, I would like to add how you can do it in Kotlin:

radio_group_id.setOnCheckedChangeListener({ radioGroup, optionId -> {
        when (optionId) {
            R.id.radio_button_1 -> {
                // do something when radio button 1 is selected
            }
            // add more cases here to handle other buttons in the RadioGroup
        }
    }
})

Here radio_group_id is the assigned android:id of the concerned RadioGroup. To use it this way you would need to import kotlinx.android.synthetic.main.your_layout_name.* in your activity's Kotlin file. Also note that in case the radioGroup lambda parameter is unused, it can be replaced with _ (an underscore) since Kotlin 1.1.

How can I get input radio elements to horizontally align?

To get your radio button to list horizontally , just add

RepeatDirection="Horizontal"

to your .aspx file where the asp:radiobuttonlist is being declared.

How to get the selected radio button’s value?

ECMAScript 6 version

let genderS = Array.from(document.getElementsByName("genderS")).find(r => r.checked).value;

How to get value of selected radio button?

Another (apparently older) option is to use the format: "document.nameOfTheForm.nameOfTheInput.value;" e.g. document.mainForm.rads.value;

_x000D_
_x000D_
document.mainForm.onclick = function(){_x000D_
    var radVal = document.mainForm.rads.value;_x000D_
    result.innerHTML = 'You selected: '+radVal;_x000D_
}
_x000D_
<form id="mainForm" name="mainForm">_x000D_
    <input type="radio" name="rads" value="1" />_x000D_
    <input type="radio" name="rads" value="2" />_x000D_
    <input type="radio" name="rads" value="3" />_x000D_
    <input type="radio" name="rads" value="4" />_x000D_
</form>_x000D_
<span id="result"></span>
_x000D_
_x000D_
_x000D_

You can refer to the element by its name within a form. Your original HTML does not contain a form element though.

How do I change the color of radio buttons?

A quick fix would be to overlay the radio button input style using :after, however it's probably a better practice to create your own custom toolkit.

_x000D_

        width: 15px;_x000D_

How to make a radio button look like a toggle button

PURE CSS AND HTML (as asked) with ANIMATIONS!

Example Image (you can run the code below):

Toggle Buttons (Radio and Checkbox) in Pure CSS and HTML

After looking for something really clean and straight forward, I ended up building this with ONE simple change from another code that was built only thinking on checkboxes, so I tryed the funcionality for RADIOS and it worked too(!).

The CSS (SCSS) is fully from @mallendeo (as established on the JS credits), what I did was simply change the type of the input to RADIO, and gave the same name to all the radio switches.... and VOILA!! They deactivate automatically one to the other!!

Very clean, and as you asked it's only CSS and HTML!!

It is exactly what I was looking for since 3 days after trying and editing more than a dozen of options (which mostly requiered jQuery, or didn't allow labels, or even wheren't really compatible with current browsers). This one's got it all!

I'm obligated to include the code in here to allow you to see a working example, so:

If you run the snippet, you'll see I leave the iOS radio checked and disabled, so you can watch how it is also affected when activating another one. I also included 2 labels for each radio, one before and one after. The copy of the original code to show the working checkboxes in the same window is also included.

Bootstrap radio button "checked" flag

In case you want to use bootstrap radio to check one of them depends on the result of your checked var in the .ts file.

component.html

<div class="btn-group btn-group-toggle" data-toggle="buttons" >
   <label [ngClass]="checked ? 'active' : ''" class="btn btn-outline-secondary">
     <input name="radio" id="radio1" value="option1" type="radio"> TRUE
   </label>
   <label [ngClass]="!checked ? 'active' : ''" class="btn btn-outline-secondary">
     <input name="radio" id="radio2" value="option2" type="radio"> FALSE
   </label>
</div>

}

Best radio-button implementation for IOS

Try DLRadioButton, works for both Swift and ObjC. You can also use images to indicate selection status or customize your own style.

**Update: added the option for putting selection indicator on the right side.

**Update: added square button, IBDesignable, improved performance.

**Update: added multiple selection support.

Angular2 - Radio Button Binding

Radio input doesn't seem to be supported yet. There should be a radio input value accessor (similar to checkbox's one, where it sets 'checked' attr here) but I didn't find any. So I implemented one; you can check it out here.

How to set a radio button in Android

if you have done the design in XML and want to show one of the checkbox in the group as checked when loading the page below solutions can help you

How do I group Windows Form radio buttons?

How to make a radio button unchecked by clicking it?

This is my answer (though I made it with jQuery but only for the purpose of selecting elements and to add and remove a class, so you can easily replace it with pure JS selectors & pure JS add attribute )

<input type='radio' name='radioBtn'>
<input type='radio' name='radioBtn'>
<input type='radio' name='radioBtn'>

$(document).on("click", "input[name='radioBtn']", function(){
    thisRadio = $(this);
    if (thisRadio.hasClass("imChecked")) {
        thisRadio.removeClass("imChecked");
        thisRadio.prop('checked', false);
    } else { 
        thisRadio.prop('checked', true);
        thisRadio.addClass("imChecked");
    };
})

How to check a radio button with jQuery?

The $.prop way is better:

$(document).ready(function () {                            
    $("#radio_1").prop('checked', true);        
});

and you can test it like the following:

$(document).ready(function () {                            
    $("#radio_1, #radio_2", "#radio_3").change(function () {
        if ($("#radio_1").is(":checked")) {
            $('#div1').show();
        }
        else if ($("#radio_2").is(":checked")) {
            $('#div2').show();
        }
        else 
            $('#div3').show();
    });        
});

Which Radio button in the group is checked?

You can use the CheckedChanged event for all your RadioButtons. Sender will be the unchecked and checked RadioButtons.

Is it possible to change the radio button icon in an android radio button group

Here's probably a quick approach,

enter image description here

With two icons shown above, you shall have a RadioGroup something like this

enter image description here

  • change the RadioGroup's orientation to horizontal
  • for each RadioButton's Properties, try giving the icon for Button under CompoundButton,
  • adjust the Padding and size,
  • and set the Background attribute when checked.

Angular 4 default radio button checked by default

You can use [(ngModel)], but you'll need to update your value to [value] otherwise the value is evaluating as a string. It would look like this:

<label>This rule is true if:</label>
<label class="form-check-inline">
    <input class="form-check-input" type="radio" name="mode" [value]="true" [(ngModel)]="rule.mode">
</label>
<label class="form-check-inline">
    <input class="form-check-input" type="radio" name="mode" [value]="false" [(ngModel)]="rule.mode">
</label>

If rule.mode is true, then that radio is selected. If it's false, then the other.

The difference really comes down to the value. value="true" really evaluates to the string 'true', whereas [value]="true" evaluates to the boolean true.

ASP.NET MVC Yes/No Radio Buttons with Strongly Bound Model MVC

If you're using MVC 3 and Razor you can also use the following:

@Html.RadioButtonFor(model => model.blah, false) No

click or change event on radio using jquery

Works for me too, here is a better solution::

fiddle demo

<form id="myForm">
  <input type="radio" name="radioName" value="1" />one<br />
  <input type="radio" name="radioName" value="2" />two 
</form>

<script>
$('#myForm input[type=radio]').change(function() {       
    alert(this.value);
});
</script>

You must make sure that you initialized jquery above all other imports and javascript functions. Because $ is a jquery function. Even

$(function(){
 <code>
}); 

will not check jquery initialised or not. It will ensure that <code> will run only after all the javascripts are initialized.

Can you style an html radio button to look like a checkbox?

Very simple idea using a table and no Javascript. Am I being too simplistic?

<style type="text/css" media="screen">
#ageBox {display: none;}
</style>

<style type="text/css" media="print">
#ageButton {display: none;}
</style>

<tr><td>Age:</td>

<td id="ageButton">
<input type="radio" name="userAge" value="18-24">18-24
<input type="radio" name="userAge" value="25-34">25-34

<td id="ageBox">
<input type="checkbox">18-24
<input type="checkbox">25-34

</td></tr>

Check whether specific radio button is checked

You should remove the '@' before 'name'; it's not needed anymore (for current jQuery versions).

You're want to return all checked elements with name 'test2', but you don't have any elements with that name, you're using an id of 'test2'.

If you're going to use IDs, just try:

return $('#test2').attr('checked');

jQuery set radio button

The chosen answer works in this case.

But the question was about finding the element based on radiogroup and dynamic id, and the answer can also leave the displayed radio button unaffected.

This line does selects exactly what was asked for while showing the change on screen as well.

$('input:radio[name=cols][id='+ newcol +']').click();

How to send value attribute from radio button in PHP

The radio buttons are sent on form submit when they are checked only...

Assign an initial value to radio button as checked

I've put this answer on a similar question that was marked as a duplicate of this question. The answer has helped a decent amount of people so I thought I'd add it here too in just in case.

This doesn't exactly answer the question but for anyone using AngularJS trying to achieve this, the answer is slightly different. And actually the normal answer won't work (at least it didn't for me).

Your html will look pretty similar to the normal radio button:

<input type='radio' name='group' ng-model='mValue' value='first' />First
<input type='radio' name='group' ng-model='mValue' value='second' /> Second

In your controller you'll have declared the mValue that is associated with the radio buttons. To have one of these radio buttons preselected, assign the $scope variable associated with the group to the desired input's value:

$scope.mValue="second"

This makes the "second" radio button selected on loading the page.

Reading the selected value from asp:RadioButtonList using jQuery

Andrew Bullock solution works just fine, I just wanted to show you mine and add a warning.

//Works great

$('#<%= radBuffetCapacity.ClientID %> input').click(function (e) {
   var val = $('#<%= radBuffetCapacity.ClientID %>').find('input:checked').val();
   //Do whatever
});

//Warning - works in firefox but not IE8 .. used this for some time before a noticing that it didnt work in IE8... used to everything working in all browsers with jQuery when working in one.

$('#<%= radBuffetCapacity.ClientID %>').change(function (e) {
   var val = $('#<%= radBuffetCapacity.ClientID %>').find('input:checked').val();
   //Do whatever
});

Radio button checked event handling

$(document).on('change','.radio-button', function(){

    const radio = $(this);

    if (radio.is(':checked')) {
      console.log(radio)
    }

});

Get Value of Radio button group

Your quotes only need to surround the value part of the attribute-equals selector, [attr='val'], like this:

$('a#check_var').click(function() {
  alert($("input:radio[name='r']:checked").val()+ ' '+
        $("input:radio[name='s']:checked").val());
});?

You can see the working version here.

How can I know which radio button is selected via jQuery?

This should work:

$("input[name='radioName']:checked").val()

Note the "" usaged around the input:checked and not '' like the Peter J's solution

How to bind RadioButtons to an enum?

You could use a more generic converter

public class EnumBooleanConverter : IValueConverter
{
  #region IValueConverter Members
  public object Convert(object value, Type targetType, object parameter, System.Globalization.CultureInfo culture)
  {
    string parameterString = parameter as string;
    if (parameterString == null)
      return DependencyProperty.UnsetValue;

    if (Enum.IsDefined(value.GetType(), value) == false)
      return DependencyProperty.UnsetValue;

    object parameterValue = Enum.Parse(value.GetType(), parameterString);

    return parameterValue.Equals(value);
  }

  public object ConvertBack(object value, Type targetType, object parameter, System.Globalization.CultureInfo culture)
  {
    string parameterString = parameter as string;
    if (parameterString == null)
        return DependencyProperty.UnsetValue;

    return Enum.Parse(targetType, parameterString);
  }
  #endregion
}

And in the XAML-Part you use:

<Grid>
    <Grid.Resources>
      <l:EnumBooleanConverter x:Key="enumBooleanConverter" />
    </Grid.Resources>
    <StackPanel >
      <RadioButton IsChecked="{Binding Path=VeryLovelyEnum, Converter={StaticResource enumBooleanConverter}, ConverterParameter=FirstSelection}">first selection</RadioButton>
      <RadioButton IsChecked="{Binding Path=VeryLovelyEnum, Converter={StaticResource enumBooleanConverter}, ConverterParameter=TheOtherSelection}">the other selection</RadioButton>
      <RadioButton IsChecked="{Binding Path=VeryLovelyEnum, Converter={StaticResource enumBooleanConverter}, ConverterParameter=YetAnotherOne}">yet another one</RadioButton>
    </StackPanel>
</Grid>

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

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


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

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

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

Also take note of:

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

Multiple radio button groups in MVC 4 Razor

You can use Dictonary to map Assume Milk,Butter,Chesse are group A (ListA) Water,Beer,Wine are group B

Dictonary<string,List<string>>) dataMap;
dataMap.add("A",ListA);
dataMap.add("B",ListB);

At View , you can foreach Keys in dataMap and process your action

jQuery get value of selected radio button

Try this with example

<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1  /jquery.min.js"></script>
<form id="myForm">
<input type="radio" name="radio" value="first"/> 1 <br/>
<input type="radio" name="radio" value="second"/> 2 <br/>
</form>



<script>
$(document).ready(function () {
    $('#myForm').on('click', function () {
        var value = $("[name=radio]:checked").val();

        alert(value);
    })
});
</script>

Why can't radio buttons be "readonly"?

I've faked readonly on a radio button by disabling only the un-checked radio buttons. It keeps the user from selecting a different value, and the checked value will always post on submit.

Using jQuery to make readonly:

$(':radio:not(:checked)').attr('disabled', true);

This approach also worked for making a select list readonly, except that you'll need to disable each un-selected option.

Using "label for" on radio buttons

(Firstly read the other answers which has explained the for in the <label></label> tags. Well, both the tops answers are correct, but for my challenge, it was when you have several radio boxes, you should select for them a common name like name="r1" but with different ids id="r1_1" ... id="r1_2"

So this way the answer is more clear and removes the conflicts between name and ids as well.

You need different ids for different options of the radio box.

_x000D_
_x000D_
<input type="radio" name="r1" id="r1_1" />_x000D_
_x000D_
       <label for="r1_1">button text one</label>_x000D_
       <br/>_x000D_
       <input type="radio" name="r1" id="r1_2" />_x000D_
_x000D_
       <label for="r1_2">button text two</label>_x000D_
       <br/>_x000D_
       <input type="radio" name="r1" id="r1_3" />_x000D_
_x000D_
       <label for="r1_3">button text three</label>
_x000D_
_x000D_
_x000D_

Checking Value of Radio Button Group via JavaScript?

Use document.querySelector() if you want to avoid frameworks (which I almost always want to do).

document.querySelector('input[name="gender"]:checked').value

How do I style (css) radio buttons and labels?

The first part of your question can be solved with just HTML & CSS; you'll need to use Javascript for the second part.

Getting the Label Near the Radio Button

I'm not sure what you mean by "next to": on the same line and near, or on separate lines? If you want all of the radio buttons on the same line, just use margins to push them apart. If you want each of them on their own line, you have two options (unless you want to venture into float: territory):

  • Use <br />s to split the options apart and some CSS to vertically align them:
<style type='text/css'>
    .input input
    {
        width: 20px;
    }
</style>
<div class="input radio">
    <fieldset>
        <legend>What color is the sky?</legend>
        <input type="hidden" name="data[Submit][question]" value="" id="SubmitQuestion" />

        <input type="radio" name="data[Submit][question]" id="SubmitQuestion1" value="1"  />
        <label for="SubmitQuestion1">A strange radient green.</label>
        <br />
        <input type="radio" name="data[Submit][question]" id="SubmitQuestion2" value="2"  />
        <label for="SubmitQuestion2">A dark gloomy orange</label>
        <br />
        <input type="radio" name="data[Submit][question]" id="SubmitQuestion3" value="3"  />
        <label for="SubmitQuestion3">A perfect glittering blue</label>
    </fieldset>
</div>

Applying a Style to the Currently Selected Label + Radio Button

Styling the <label> is why you'll need to resort to Javascript. A library like jQuery is perfect for this:

<style type='text/css'>
    .input label.focused
    {
        background-color: #EEEEEE;
        font-style: italic;
    }
</style>
<script type='text/javascript' src='jquery.js'></script>
<script type='text/javascript'>
    $(document).ready(function() {
        $('.input :radio').focus(updateSelectedStyle);
        $('.input :radio').blur(updateSelectedStyle);
        $('.input :radio').change(updateSelectedStyle);
    })

    function updateSelectedStyle() {
        $('.input :radio').removeClass('focused').next().removeClass('focused');
        $('.input :radio:checked').addClass('focused').next().addClass('focused');
    }
</script>

The focus and blur hooks are needed to make this work in IE.

How to create radio buttons and checkbox in swift (iOS)?

For checkboxes there is actually a built-in solution in the form of UITableViewCell accessories. You can set up your form as a UITableView in which each cell as a selectable option and use accessoryType to set a check mark for selected items.

Here is a pseudo-code example:

    let items = [SelectableItem]

    func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, cellForRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> UITableViewCell {


        // Get the item for the current row
        let item = self.items[indexPath.row]

        // ...dequeue and set up the `cell` as you wish...

        // Use accessoryType property to mark the row as checked or not...
        cell.accessoryType = item.selected ? .checkmark : .none
    }

    func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, didSelectRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) {

        // Unselect row
        tableView.deselectRow(at: indexPath, animated: false)

Radio buttons however do require a custom implementation, see the other answers.

Radio Buttons "Checked" Attribute Not Working

Radio inputs must be inside of a form for 'checked' to work.

How to check radio button is checked using JQuery?

Taking some answers one step further - if you do the following you can check if any element within the radio group has been checked:

if ($('input[name="yourRadioNames"]:checked').val()){ (checked) or if (!$('input[name="yourRadioNames"]:checked').val()){ (not checked)

Radio Buttons ng-checked with ng-model

I think you should only use ng-model and should work well for you, here is the link to the official documentation of angular https://docs.angularjs.org/api/ng/input/input%5Bradio%5D

The code from the example should not be difficult to adapt to your specific situation:

<script>
   function Ctrl($scope) {
      $scope.color = 'blue';
      $scope.specialValue = {
         "id": "12345",
         "value": "green"
      };
   }
</script>
<form name="myForm" ng-controller="Ctrl">
   <input type="radio" ng-model="color" value="red">  Red <br/>
   <input type="radio" ng-model="color" ng-value="specialValue"> Green <br/>
   <input type="radio" ng-model="color" value="blue"> Blue <br/>
   <tt>color = {{color | json}}</tt><br/>
</form>

How can I check whether a radio button is selected with JavaScript?

Give radio buttons, same name but different IDs.

var verified1 = $('#SOME_ELEMENT1').val();
var verified2 = $('#SOME_ELEMENT2').val();
var final_answer = null;
if( $('#SOME_ELEMENT1').attr('checked') == 'checked' ){
  //condition
  final_answer = verified1;
}
else
{
  if($('#SOME_ELEMENT2').attr('checked') == 'checked'){
    //condition
    final_answer = verified2;
   }
   else
   {
     return false;
   }
}

how to set radio option checked onload with jQuery

If you want it to be truly dynamic and select the radio that corresponds to the incoming data, this works. It's using the gender value of the data passed in or uses default.

if(data['gender'] == ''){
 $('input:radio[name="gender"][value="Male"]').prop('checked', true);
}else{
  $('input:radio[name="gender"][value="' + data['gender'] +'"]').prop('checked', true);
};

How to set the value for Radio Buttons When edit?

How to check if a radiobutton is checked in a radiogroup in Android?

I used the id's of my radiobuttons to compare with the id of the checkedRadioButton that I got using mRadioGroup.getCheckedRadioButtonId()

Here is my code:

mRadioButton1=(RadioButton)findViewById(R.id.first);
mRadioButton2=(RadioButton)findViewById(R.id.second);
mRadioButton3=(RadioButton)findViewById(R.id.third);
mRadioButton4=(RadioButton)findViewById(R.id.fourth);

mNextButton=(Button)findViewById(R.id.next_button);

mNextButton.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
    @Override
    public void onClick(View v) {
        int selectedId=mRadioGroup.getCheckedRadioButtonId();

        int n=0;
        if(selectedId==R.id.first){n=1;}

        else if(selectedId==R.id.second){n=2;}

        else if(selectedId==R.id.third){n=3;}

        else if(selectedId==R.id.fourth){n=4;}
        //. . . .
    }

Simple WPF RadioButton Binding?

I created an attached property based on Aviad's Answer which doesn't require creating a new class

public static class RadioButtonHelper
{
    [AttachedPropertyBrowsableForType(typeof(RadioButton))]
    public static object GetRadioValue(DependencyObject obj) => obj.GetValue(RadioValueProperty);
    public static void SetRadioValue(DependencyObject obj, object value) => obj.SetValue(RadioValueProperty, value);
    public static readonly DependencyProperty RadioValueProperty =
        DependencyProperty.RegisterAttached("RadioValue", typeof(object), typeof(RadioButtonHelper), new PropertyMetadata(new PropertyChangedCallback(OnRadioValueChanged)));

    private static void OnRadioValueChanged(DependencyObject d, DependencyPropertyChangedEventArgs e)
    {
        if (d is RadioButton rb)
        {
            rb.Checked -= OnChecked;
            rb.Checked += OnChecked;
        }
    }

    public static void OnChecked(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
    {
        if (sender is RadioButton rb)
        {
            rb.SetCurrentValue(RadioBindingProperty, rb.GetValue(RadioValueProperty));
        }
    }

    [AttachedPropertyBrowsableForType(typeof(RadioButton))]
    public static object GetRadioBinding(DependencyObject obj) => obj.GetValue(RadioBindingProperty);
    public static void SetRadioBinding(DependencyObject obj, object value) => obj.SetValue(RadioBindingProperty, value);

    public static readonly DependencyProperty RadioBindingProperty =
        DependencyProperty.RegisterAttached("RadioBinding", typeof(object), typeof(RadioButtonHelper), new FrameworkPropertyMetadata(null, FrameworkPropertyMetadataOptions.BindsTwoWayByDefault, new PropertyChangedCallback(OnRadioBindingChanged)));

    private static void OnRadioBindingChanged(DependencyObject d, DependencyPropertyChangedEventArgs e)
    {
        if (d is RadioButton rb && rb.GetValue(RadioValueProperty).Equals(e.NewValue))
        {
            rb.SetCurrentValue(RadioButton.IsCheckedProperty, true);
        }
    }
}

usage :

<RadioButton GroupName="grp1" Content="Value 1"
    helpers:RadioButtonHelper.RadioValue="val1" helpers:RadioButtonHelper.RadioBinding="{Binding SelectedValue}"/>
<RadioButton GroupName="grp1" Content="Value 2"
    helpers:RadioButtonHelper.RadioValue="val2" helpers:RadioButtonHelper.RadioBinding="{Binding SelectedValue}"/>
<RadioButton GroupName="grp1" Content="Value 3"
    helpers:RadioButtonHelper.RadioValue="val3" helpers:RadioButtonHelper.RadioBinding="{Binding SelectedValue}"/>
<RadioButton GroupName="grp1" Content="Value 4"
    helpers:RadioButtonHelper.RadioValue="val4" helpers:RadioButtonHelper.RadioBinding="{Binding SelectedValue}"/>

How to use jQuery to show/hide divs based on radio button selection?

An interesting solution is to make this declarative: you just give every div that should be shown an attribute automaticallyVisibleIfIdChecked with the id of the checkbox or radio button on which it depends. That is, your form looks like this:

<form name="form1" id="my_form" method="post" action="">
    <div><label><input type="radio" name="group1" id="rdio1" value="opt1">opt1</label></div>  
    <div><label><input type="radio" name="group1" id="rdio2" value="opt2">opt2</label></div>  
</form>
....
<div id="opt1" automaticallyVisibleIfIdChecked="rdio1">lorem ipsum dolor</div>
<div id="opt2" automaticallyVisibleIfIdChecked="rdio2">consectetur adipisicing</div>

and have some page independent JavaScript that nicely uses functional programming:

function executeAutomaticVisibility(name) {
    $("[name="+name+"]:checked").each(function() {
        $("[automaticallyVisibleIfIdChecked=" + this.id+"]").show();
    });
    $("[name="+name+"]:not(:checked)").each(function() {
        $("[automaticallyVisibleIfIdChecked=" + this.id+"]").hide();
    });
}

$(document).ready( function() {
    triggers = $("[automaticallyVisibleIfIdChecked]")
        .map(function(){ return $("#" + $(this).attr("automaticallyVisibleIfIdChecked")).get() })
    $.unique(triggers);
    triggers.each( function() {
        executeAutomaticVisibility(this.name);
        $(this).change( function(){ executeAutomaticVisibility(this.name); } );
    });
});

Similarily you could automatically enable / disable form fields with an attribute automaticallyEnabledIfChecked.

I think this method is nice since it avoids having to create specific JavaScript for your page - you just insert some attributes that say what should be done.

In jQuery, how do I select an element by its name attribute?

To determine which radio button is checked, try this:

$('input:radio[name=theme]').click(function() {
  var val = $('input:radio[name=theme]:checked').val();
});

The event will be caught for all of the radio buttons in the group and the value of the selected button will be placed in val.

Update: After posting I decided that Paolo's answer above is better, since it uses one less DOM traversal. I am letting this answer stand since it shows how to get the selected element in a way that is cross-browser compatible.

How to properly apply a lambda function into a pandas data frame column

Postgres: INSERT if does not exist already

One approach would be to create a non-constrained (no unique indexes) table to insert all your data into and do a select distinct from that to do your insert into your hundred table.

So high level would be. I assume all three columns are distinct in my example so for step3 change the NOT EXITS join to only join on the unique columns in the hundred table.

  1. Create temporary table. See docs here.

    CREATE TEMPORARY TABLE temp_data(name, name_slug, status);
    
  2. INSERT Data into temp table.

    INSERT INTO temp_data(name, name_slug, status); 
    
  3. Add any indexes to the temp table.

  4. Do main table insert.

    INSERT INTO hundred(name, name_slug, status) 
        SELECT DISTINCT name, name_slug, status
        FROM hundred
        WHERE NOT EXISTS (
            SELECT 'X' 
            FROM temp_data
            WHERE 
                temp_data.name          = hundred.name
                AND temp_data.name_slug = hundred.name_slug
                AND temp_data.status    = status
        );
    

Status bar and navigation bar appear over my view's bounds in iOS 7

I would like to expand on Stunner's answer, and add an if statement to check if it is iOS-7, because when I tested it on iOS 6 my app would crash.

The addition would be adding:

if ([[[UIDevice currentDevice] systemVersion] floatValue] >= 7.0)

So I would suggest adding this method to your MyViewControler.m file:

- (void) viewDidLayoutSubviews {
    if ([[[UIDevice currentDevice] systemVersion] floatValue] >= 7.0) {
        CGRect viewBounds = self.view.bounds;
        CGFloat topBarOffset = self.topLayoutGuide.length;
        viewBounds.origin.y = topBarOffset * -1;
        self.view.bounds = viewBounds;
    }
}

Why is January month 0 in Java Calendar?

java.time.Month

Java provides you another way to use 1 based indexes for months. Use the java.time.Month enum. One object is predefined for each of the twelve months. They have numbers assigned to each 1-12 for January-December; call getValue for the number.

Make use of Month.JULY (Gives you 7) instead of Calendar.JULY (Gives you 6).

pthread_join() and pthread_exit()

It because every time

void pthread_exit(void *ret);

will be called from thread function so which ever you want to return simply its pointer pass with pthread_exit().

Now at

int pthread_join(pthread_t tid, void **ret);

will be always called from where thread is created so here to accept that returned pointer you need double pointer ..

i think this code will help you to understand this

#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <pthread.h>
#include <stdlib.h>

void* thread_function(void *ignoredInThisExample)
{
    char *a = malloc(10);
    strcpy(a,"hello world");
    pthread_exit((void*)a);
}
int main()
{
    pthread_t thread_id;
    char *b;

    pthread_create (&thread_id, NULL,&thread_function, NULL);

    pthread_join(thread_id,(void**)&b); //here we are reciving one pointer 
                                        value so to use that we need double pointer 
    printf("b is %s\n",b); 
    free(b); // lets free the memory

Securing a password in a properties file

What about providing a custom N-Factor authentication mechanism?

Before combining available methods, let's assume we can perform the following:

1) Hard-code inside the Java program

2) Store in a .properties file

3) Ask user to type password from command line

4) Ask user to type password from a form

5) Ask user to load a password-file from command line or a form

6) Provide the password through network

7) many alternatives (eg Draw A Secret, Fingerprint, IP-specific, bla bla bla)

1st option: We could make things more complicated for an attacker by using obfuscation, but this is not considered a good countermeasure. A good coder can easily understand how it works if he/she can access the file. We could even export a per-user binary (or just the obfuscation part or key-part), so an attacker must have access to this user-specific file, not another distro. Again, we should find a way to change passwords, eg by recompiling or using reflection to on-the-fly change class behavior.

2nd option: We can store the password in the .properties file in an encrypted format, so it's not directly visible from an attacker (just like jasypt does). If we need a password manager we'll need a master password too which again should be stored somewhere - inside a .class file, the keystore, kernel, another file or even in memory - all have their pros and cons.
But, now users will just edit the .properties file for password change.

3rd option: type the password when running from command line e.g. java -jar /myprogram.jar -p sdflhjkiweHIUHIU8976hyd.

This doesn't require the password to be stored and will stay in memory. However, history commands and OS logs, may be your worst enemy here. To change passwords on-the-fly, you will need to implement some methods (eg listen for console inputs, RMI, sockets, REST bla bla bla), but the password will always stay in memory.

One can even temporarily decrypt it only when required -> then delete the decrypted, but always keep the encrypted password in memory. Unfortunately, the aforementioned method does not increase security against unauthorized in-memory access, because the person who achieves that, will probably have access to the algorithm, salt and any other secrets being used.

4th option: provide the password from a custom form, rather than the command line. This will circumvent the problem of logging exposure.

5th option: provide a file as a password stored previously on a another medium -> then hard delete file. This will again circumvent the problem of logging exposure, plus no typing is required that could be shoulder-surfing stolen. When a change is required, provide another file, then delete again.

6th option: again to avoid shoulder-surfing, one can implement an RMI method call, to provide the password (through an encrypted channel) from another device, eg via a mobile phone. However, you now need to protect your network channel and access to the other device.

I would choose a combination of the above methods to achieve maximum security so one would have to access the .class files, the property file, logs, network channel, shoulder surfing, man in the middle, other files bla bla bla. This can be easily implemented using a XOR operation between all sub_passwords to produce the actual password.

We can't be protected from unauthorized in-memory access though, this can only be achieved by using some access-restricted hardware (eg smartcards, HSMs, SGX), where everything is computed into them, without anyone, even the legitimate owner being able to access decryption keys or algorithms. Again, one can steal this hardware too, there are reported side-channel attacks that may help attackers in key extraction and in some cases you need to trust another party (eg with SGX you trust Intel). Of course, situation may worsen when secure-enclave cloning (de-assembling) will be possible, but I guess this will take some years to be practical.

Also, one may consider a key sharing solution where the full key is split between different servers. However, upon reconstruction, the full key can be stolen. The only way to mitigate the aforementioned issue is by secure multiparty computation.

We should always keep in mind that whatever the input method, we need to ensure we are not vulnerable from network sniffing (MITM attacks) and/or key-loggers.

this codes gets the uncommon object between the two sets of file lists its not the most elegant, and if multiple files are created at the same time it would probably won't be stable

Python != operation vs "is not"

None is a singleton, therefore identity comparison will always work, whereas an object can fake the equality comparison via .__eq__().

Why can't static methods be abstract in Java?

As abstract methods belong to the class and cannot be overridden by the implementing class.Even if there is a static method with same signature , it hides the method ,does not override it. So it is immaterial to declare the abstract method as static as it will never get the body.Thus, compile time error.

Can I set state inside a useEffect hook

For future purposes, this may help too:

It's ok to use setState in useEffect you just need to have attention as described already to not create a loop.

But it's not the only problem that may occur. See below:

Imagine that you have a component Comp that receives props from parent and according to a props change you want to set Comp's state. For some reason, you need to change for each prop in a different useEffect:

DO NOT DO THIS

useEffect(() => {
  setState({ ...state, a: props.a });
}, [props.a]);

useEffect(() => {
  setState({ ...state, b: props.b });
}, [props.b]);

It may never change the state of a as you can see in this example: https://codesandbox.io/s/confident-lederberg-dtx7w

The reason why this happen in this example it's because both useEffects run in the same react cycle when you change both prop.a and prop.b so the value of {...state} when you do setState are exactly the same in both useEffect because they are in the same context. When you run the second setState it will replace the first setState.

DO THIS INSTEAD

The solution for this problem is basically call setState like this:

useEffect(() => {
  setState(state => ({ ...state, a: props.a }));
}, [props.a]);

useEffect(() => {
  setState(state => ({ ...state, b: props.b }));
}, [props.b]);

Check the solution here: https://codesandbox.io/s/mutable-surf-nynlx

Now, you always receive the most updated and correct value of the state when you proceed with the setState.

I hope this helps someone!

Reading multiple Scanner inputs

If every input asks the same question, you should use a for loop and an array of inputs:

Scanner dd = new Scanner(System.in);
int[] vars = new int[3];

for(int i = 0; i < vars.length; i++) {
  System.out.println("Enter next var: ");
  vars[i] = dd.nextInt();
}

Or as Chip suggested, you can parse the input from one line:

Scanner in = new Scanner(System.in);
int[] vars = new int[3];

System.out.println("Enter "+vars.length+" vars: ");
for(int i = 0; i < vars.length; i++)
  vars[i] = in.nextInt();

You were on the right track, and what you did works. This is just a nicer and more flexible way of doing things.

remove / reset inherited css from an element

You could try overwriting the CSS and use auto

I don't think this will work with color specifically, but I ran into an issue where i had a parent property such as

.parent {
   left: 0px;
}

and then I was able to just define my child with something like

.child {
   left: auto;
}

and it effectively "reset" the property.

How to change string into QString?

get all keys set in memcached

Found a way, thanks to the link here (with the original google group discussion here)

First, Telnet to your server:

telnet 127.0.0.1 11211

Next, list the items to get the slab ids:

stats items
STAT items:3:number 1
STAT items:3:age 498
STAT items:22:number 1
STAT items:22:age 498
END

The first number after ‘items’ is the slab id. Request a cache dump for each slab id, with a limit for the max number of keys to dump:

stats cachedump 3 100
ITEM views.decorators.cache.cache_header..cc7d9 [6 b; 1256056128 s]
END

stats cachedump 22 100
ITEM views.decorators.cache.cache_page..8427e [7736 b; 1256056128 s]
END

Is there an "exists" function for jQuery?

I stumbled upon this question and i'd like to share a snippet of code i currently use:

$.fn.exists = function(callback) {
    var self = this;
    var wrapper = (function(){
            function notExists () {}

            notExists.prototype.otherwise = function(fallback){
                if (!self.length) {                    
                    fallback.call();
                }
            };

            return new notExists;
        })();

    if(self.length) {
        callback.call();    
    }

    return wrapper;
}

And now i can write code like this -

$("#elem").exists(function(){
    alert ("it exists");
}).otherwise(function(){
    alert ("it doesn't exist");
});

It might seem a lot of code, but when written in CoffeeScript it is quite small:

$.fn.exists = (callback) ->
    exists = @length
    callback.call() if exists        
    new class
       otherwise: (fallback) ->            
            fallback.call() if not exists

Hibernate: flush() and commit()

By default flush mode is AUTO which means that: "The Session is sometimes flushed before query execution in order to ensure that queries never return stale state", but most of the time session is flushed when you commit your changes. Manual calling of the flush method is usefull when you use FlushMode=MANUAL or you want to do some kind of optimization. But I have never done this so I can't give you practical advice.

java.lang.IllegalStateException: Fragment not attached to Activity

Change color inside strings.xml

I would use a SpannableString to change the color.

int colorBlue = getResources().getColor(R.color.blue);
    String text = getString(R.string.text);
    SpannableString spannable = new SpannableString(text);
    // here we set the color
    spannable.setSpan(new ForegroundColorSpan(colorBlue), 0, text.length(), 0);

Android SQLite: Update Statement

It's all in the tutorial how to do that:

    ContentValues args = new ContentValues();
    args.put(columnName, newValue);
    db.update(DATABASE_TABLE, args, KEY_ROWID + "=" + rowId, null);

Use ContentValues to set the updated columns and than the update() method in which you have to specifiy, the table and a criteria to only update the rows you want to update.

Display string as html in asp.net mvc view

I had a similar problem recently, and google landed me here, so I put this answer here in case others land here as well, for completeness.

I noticed that when I had badly formatted html, I was actually having all my html tags stripped out, with just the non-tag content remaining. I particularly had a table with a missing opening table tag, and then all my html tags from the entire string where ripped out completely.

So, if the above doesn't work, and you're still scratching your head, then also check you html for being valid.

I notice even after I got it working, MVC was adding tbody tags where I had none. This tells me there is clean up happening (MVC 5), and that when it can't happen, it strips out all/some tags.

How to remove square brackets from list in Python?

if you have numbers in list, you can use map to apply str to each element:

How to give the background-image path in CSS?

There are two basic ways:

url(../../images/image.png)

or

url(/Web/images/image.png)

I prefer the latter, as it's easier to work with and works from all locations in the site (so useful for inline image paths too).

Mind you, I wouldn't do so much deep nesting of folders. It seems unnecessary and makes life a bit difficult, as you've found.

Java and SQLite

I found your question while searching for information with SQLite and Java. Just thought I'd add my answer which I also posted on my blog.

I have been coding in Java for a while now. I have also known about SQLite but never used it… Well I have used it through other applications but never in an app that I coded. So I needed it for a project this week and it's so simple use!

I found a Java JDBC driver for SQLite. Just add the JAR file to your classpath and import java.sql.*

His test app will create a database file, send some SQL commands to create a table, store some data in the table, and read it back and display on console. It will create the test.db file in the root directory of the project. You can run this example with java -cp .:sqlitejdbc-v056.jar Test.

package com.rungeek.sqlite;

import java.sql.Connection;
import java.sql.DriverManager;
import java.sql.PreparedStatement;
import java.sql.ResultSet;
import java.sql.Statement;

public class Test {
    public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
        Class.forName("org.sqlite.JDBC");
        Connection conn = DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:sqlite:test.db");
        Statement stat = conn.createStatement();
        stat.executeUpdate("drop table if exists people;");
        stat.executeUpdate("create table people (name, occupation);");
        PreparedStatement prep = conn.prepareStatement(
            "insert into people values (?, ?);");

        prep.setString(1, "Gandhi");
        prep.setString(2, "politics");
        prep.addBatch();
        prep.setString(1, "Turing");
        prep.setString(2, "computers");
        prep.addBatch();
        prep.setString(1, "Wittgenstein");
        prep.setString(2, "smartypants");
        prep.addBatch();

        conn.setAutoCommit(false);
        prep.executeBatch();
        conn.setAutoCommit(true);

        ResultSet rs = stat.executeQuery("select * from people;");
        while (rs.next()) {
            System.out.println("name = " + rs.getString("name"));
            System.out.println("job = " + rs.getString("occupation"));
        }
        rs.close();
        conn.close();
    }
  }

Range of values in C Int and Long 32 - 64 bits

Excerpt from K&R:

short is often 16 bits, long 32 bits and int either 16 bits or 32 bits. Each compiler is free to choose appropriate sizes for its own hardware, subject only to the restriction that shorts and ints are at least 16 bits, longs are at least 32 bits, and short is no longer than int, which is no longer than long.


You can make use of limits.h that contains the definition of the limits for the decimal/float types:

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <limits.h>
#include <float.h>


int main(int argc, char** argv) {

    printf("CHAR_BIT    :   %d\n", CHAR_BIT);
    printf("CHAR_MAX    :   %d\n", CHAR_MAX);
    printf("CHAR_MIN    :   %d\n", CHAR_MIN);
    printf("INT_MAX     :   %d\n", INT_MAX);
    printf("INT_MIN     :   %d\n", INT_MIN);
    printf("LONG_MAX    :   %ld\n", (long) LONG_MAX);
    printf("LONG_MIN    :   %ld\n", (long) LONG_MIN);
    printf("SCHAR_MAX   :   %d\n", SCHAR_MAX);
    printf("SCHAR_MIN   :   %d\n", SCHAR_MIN);
    printf("SHRT_MAX    :   %d\n", SHRT_MAX);
    printf("SHRT_MIN    :   %d\n", SHRT_MIN);
    printf("UCHAR_MAX   :   %d\n", UCHAR_MAX);
    printf("UINT_MAX    :   %u\n", (unsigned int) UINT_MAX);
    printf("ULONG_MAX   :   %lu\n", (unsigned long) ULONG_MAX);
    printf("USHRT_MAX   :   %d\n", (unsigned short) USHRT_MAX);
    printf("FLT_MAX     :   %g\n", (float) FLT_MAX);
    printf("FLT_MIN     :   %g\n", (float) FLT_MIN);
    printf("-FLT_MAX    :   %g\n", (float) -FLT_MAX);
    printf("-FLT_MIN    :   %g\n", (float) -FLT_MIN);
    printf("DBL_MAX     :   %g\n", (double) DBL_MAX);
    printf("DBL_MIN     :   %g\n", (double) DBL_MIN);
    printf("-DBL_MAX     :  %g\n", (double) -DBL_MAX);

    return (EXIT_SUCCESS);
}

Maybe you might have to tweak a little bit on your machine, but it is a good template to start to get an idea of the (implementation-defined) min and max values.

How to count total lines changed by a specific author in a Git repository?

git-fame

https://github.com/oleander/git-fame-rb

This is a nice tool to get the count for all authors at once, including commit and modified files count:

sudo apt-get install ruby-dev
sudo gem install git_fame
cd /path/to/gitdir && git fame

There is also Python version at https://github.com/casperdcl/git-fame (mentioned by @fracz):

sudo apt-get install python-pip python-dev build-essential 
pip install --user git-fame
cd /path/to/gitdir && git fame

Sample output:

Total number of files: 2,053
Total number of lines: 63,132
Total number of commits: 4,330

But be warned: as mentioned by Jared in the comment, doing it on a very large repository will take hours. Not sure if that could be improved though, considering that it must process so much Git data.

Characters allowed in GET parameter

All of the rules concerning the encoding of URIs (which contains URNs and URLs) are specified in the RFC1738 and the RFC3986, here's a TL;DR of these long and boring documents:

Percent-encoding, also known as URL encoding, is a mechanism for encoding information in a URI under certain circumstances. The characters allowed in a URI are either reserved or unreserved. Reserved characters are those characters that sometimes have special meaning, but they are not the only characters that needs encoding.

There are 66 unreserved characters that doesn't need any encoding: abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ0123456789-_.~

There are 18 reserved characters which needs to be encoded: !*'();:@&=+$,/?#[], and all the other characters must be encoded.

To percent-encode a character, simply concatenate "%" and its ASCII value in hexadecimal. The php functions "urlencode" and "rawurlencode" do this job for you.

How to enable support of CPU virtualization on Macbook Pro?

Here is a way to check is virtualization is enabled or disabled by the firmware as suggested by this link in parallels.com.

How to check that Intel VT-x is supported in CPU:

  1. Open Terminal application from Application/Utilities

  2. Copy/paste command bellow

sysctl -a | grep machdep.cpu.features

  1. You may see output similar to:

Mac:~ user$ sysctl -a | grep machdep.cpu.features kern.exec: unknown type returned machdep.cpu.features: FPU VME DE PSE TSC MSR PAE MCE CX8 APIC SEP MTRR PGE MCA CMOV PAT CLFSH DS ACPI MMX FXSR SSE SSE2 SS HTT TM SSE3 MON VMX EST TM2 TPR PDCM

If you see VMX entry then CPU supports Intel VT-x feature, but it still may be disabled.

Refer to this link on Apple.com to enable hardware support for virtualization:

Select All distinct values in a column using LINQ

Interestingly enough I tried both of these in LinqPad and the variant using group from Dmitry Gribkov by appears to be quicker. (also the final distinct is not required as the result is already distinct.

My (somewhat simple) code was:

public class Pair 
{ 
    public int id {get;set;}
    public string Arb {get;set;}
}

void Main()
{

    var theList = new List<Pair>();
    var randomiser = new Random();
    for (int count = 1; count < 10000; count++)
    {
        theList.Add(new Pair 
        {
            id = randomiser.Next(1, 50),
            Arb = "not used"
        });
    }

    var timer = new Stopwatch();
    timer.Start();
    var distinct = theList.GroupBy(c => c.id).Select(p => p.First().id);
    timer.Stop();
    Debug.WriteLine(timer.Elapsed);

    timer.Start();
    var otherDistinct = theList.Select(p => p.id).Distinct();
    timer.Stop();
    Debug.WriteLine(timer.Elapsed);
}

Why std::cout instead of simply cout?

You probably had using namespace std; before in your code you did in class. That explicitly tells the precompiler to look for the symbols in std, which means you don't need to std::. Though it is good practice to std::cout instead of cout so you explicitly invoke std::cout every time. That way if you are using another library that redefines cout, you still have the std::cout behavior instead of some other custom behavior.

Using group by on multiple columns

Group By X means put all those with the same value for X in the one group.

Group By X, Y means put all those with the same values for both X and Y in the one group.

To illustrate using an example, let's say we have the following table, to do with who is attending what subject at a university:

Table: Subject_Selection

+---------+----------+----------+
| Subject | Semester | Attendee |
+---------+----------+----------+
| ITB001  |        1 | John     |
| ITB001  |        1 | Bob      |
| ITB001  |        1 | Mickey   |
| ITB001  |        2 | Jenny    |
| ITB001  |        2 | James    |
| MKB114  |        1 | John     |
| MKB114  |        1 | Erica    |
+---------+----------+----------+

When you use a group by on the subject column only; say:

select Subject, Count(*)
from Subject_Selection
group by Subject

You will get something like:

+---------+-------+
| Subject | Count |
+---------+-------+
| ITB001  |     5 |
| MKB114  |     2 |
+---------+-------+

...because there are 5 entries for ITB001, and 2 for MKB114

If we were to group by two columns:

select Subject, Semester, Count(*)
from Subject_Selection
group by Subject, Semester

we would get this:

+---------+----------+-------+
| Subject | Semester | Count |
+---------+----------+-------+
| ITB001  |        1 |     3 |
| ITB001  |        2 |     2 |
| MKB114  |        1 |     2 |
+---------+----------+-------+

This is because, when we group by two columns, it is saying "Group them so that all of those with the same Subject and Semester are in the same group, and then calculate all the aggregate functions (Count, Sum, Average, etc.) for each of those groups". In this example, this is demonstrated by the fact that, when we count them, there are three people doing ITB001 in semester 1, and two doing it in semester 2. Both of the people doing MKB114 are in semester 1, so there is no row for semester 2 (no data fits into the group "MKB114, Semester 2")

Hopefully that makes sense.

How to send HTML email using linux command line

The problem is that when redirecting a file into 'mail' like that, it's used for the message body only. Any headers you embed in the file will go into the body instead.

Try:

mail --append="Content-type: text/html" -s "Built notification" [email protected] < /var/www/report.csv

--append lets you add arbitrary headers to the mail, which is where you should specify the content-type and content-disposition. There's no need to embed the To and Subject headers in your file, or specify them with --append, since you're implicitly setting them on the command line already (-s is the subject, and [email protected] automatically becomes the To).

PHP equivalent of .NET/Java's toString()

How to check if the given string is palindrome?

Perl:

sub is_palindrome($)
{
  $s = lc(shift); # ignore case
  $s =~ s/\W+//g; # consider only letters, digits, and '_'
  $s eq reverse $s;
}

It ignores case and strips non-alphanumeric characters (it locale- and unicode- neutral).

How to add checkboxes to JTABLE swing

1) JTable knows JCheckbox with built-in Boolean TableCellRenderers and TableCellEditor by default, then there is contraproductive declare something about that,

2) AbstractTableModel should be useful, where is in the JTable required to reduce/restrict/change nested and inherits methods by default implemented in the DefaultTableModel,

3) consider using DefaultTableModel, (if you are not sure about how to works) instead of AbstractTableModel,

table_with_BooleanType_column

could be generated from simple code:

import javax.swing.*;
import javax.swing.table.*;

public class TableCheckBox extends JFrame {

    private static final long serialVersionUID = 1L;
    private JTable table;

    public TableCheckBox() {
        Object[] columnNames = {"Type", "Company", "Shares", "Price", "Boolean"};
        Object[][] data = {
            {"Buy", "IBM", new Integer(1000), new Double(80.50), false},
            {"Sell", "MicroSoft", new Integer(2000), new Double(6.25), true},
            {"Sell", "Apple", new Integer(3000), new Double(7.35), true},
            {"Buy", "Nortel", new Integer(4000), new Double(20.00), false}
        };
        DefaultTableModel model = new DefaultTableModel(data, columnNames);
        table = new JTable(model) {

            private static final long serialVersionUID = 1L;

How to find a value in an excel column by vba code Cells.Find

I'd prefer to use the .Find method directly on a range object containing the range of cells to be searched. For original poster's code it might look like:

Set cell = ActiveSheet.Columns("B:B").Find( _
    What:=celda, _
    After:=ActiveCell _
    LookIn:=xlFormulas, _
    LookAt:=xlWhole, _
    SearchOrder:=xlByRows, _
    SearchDirection:=xlNext, _
    MatchCase:=False, _
    SearchFormat:=False _
)

If cell Is Nothing Then
    'do something
Else
    'do something else
End If

I'd prefer to use more variables (and be sure to declare them) and let a lot of optional arguments use their default values:

Dim rng as Range
Dim cell as Range
Dim search as String

Set rng = ActiveSheet.Columns("B:B")
search = "String to Find"
Set cell = rng.Find(What:=search, LookIn:=xlFormulas, LookAt:=xlWhole, MatchCase:=False)

If cell Is Nothing Then
    'do something
Else
    'do something else
End If

I kept LookIn:=, LookAt::=, and MatchCase:= to be explicit about what is being matched. The other optional parameters control the order matches are returned in - I'd only specify those if the order is important to my application.

Limit number of characters allowed in form input text field

<input type="text" name="MobileNumber" id="MobileNumber" maxlength="10" onkeypress="checkNumber(event);"  placeholder="MobileNumber">

  var inputNumber = document.querySelector("#MobileNumber").value;
  if(key.key >= 0 && key.key <= 9) {
    inputNumber += key.key;
  }
  else {
    key.preventDefault();

What is "runtime"?

If my understanding from reading the above answers is correct, Runtime is basically 'background processes' such as garbage collection, memory-allocation, basically any processes that are invoked indirectly, by the libraries / frameworks that your code is written in, and specifically those processes that occur after compilation, while the application is running.

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

I know this is an old post, but I recently came across with the same problem. However, adding Anaconda to PYTHONPATH wasn't working for me. What got it fixed was the following:

  1. Added Anaconda to the PYTHONPATH and remove any other distribution of Python from any paths.
  2. Opened the command prompt and started python (Here I had to verify that it was indeed running under the Anaconda dist)
  3. Ran the following lines inside anaconda

    >>> import sys
    >>> sys.path
    ['','C:\\Anaconda','C:\\Anaconda\\Scripts','C:\\Anaconda\\python27.zip','C:\\Anaconda\\DLLs','C:\\Anaconda\\lib','C:\\Anaconda\\lib\\plat-win','C:\\Anaconda\\lib\\lib-tk','C:\\Anaconda\\lib\\site-packages','C:\\Anaconda\\lib\\site-packages\\PIL','C:\\Anaconda\\lib\\site-packages\\Sphinx-1.2.3-py2.7.egg','C:\\Anaconda\\lib\\site-packages\\win32', 'C:\\Anaconda\\lib\\site-packages\\win32\\lib', 'C:\\Anaconda\\lib\\site-packages\\Pythonwin','C:\\Anaconda\\lib\\site-packages\\runipy-0.1.1-py2.7.egg','C:\\Anaconda\\lib\\site-packages\\setuptools-5.8-py2.7.egg']
    
  4. Copied the displayed path

  5. Within the script that I'm trying to execute on double click, changed the path to the previously copied one.

    import sys
    sys.path =['','C:\\Anaconda','C:\\Anaconda\\Scripts','C:\\Anaconda\\python27.zip','C:\\Anaconda\\DLLs','C:\\Anaconda\\lib','C:\\Anaconda\\lib\\plat-win','C:\\Anaconda\\lib\\lib-tk','C:\\Anaconda\\lib\\site-packages','C:\\Anaconda\\lib\\site-packages\\PIL','C:\\Anaconda\\lib\\site-packages\\Sphinx-1.2.3-py2.7.egg','C:\\Anaconda\\lib\\site-packages\\win32', 'C:\\Anaconda\\lib\\site-packages\\win32\\lib', 'C:\\Anaconda\\lib\\site-packages\\Pythonwin','C:\\Anaconda\\lib\\site-packages\\runipy-0.1.1-py2.7.egg','C:\\Anaconda\\lib\\site-packages\\setuptools-5.8-py2.7.egg']
    
  6. Changed the default application for the script to 'python'

After doing this, my scripts are working on double click.

What is the question mark for in a Typescript parameter name

The ? in the parameters is to denote an optional parameter. The Typescript compiler does not require this parameter to be filled in. See the code example below for more details:

// baz: number | undefined means: the second argument baz can be a number or undefined

// = undefined, is default parameter syntax, 
// if the parameter is not filled in it will default to undefined

// Although default JS behaviour is to set every non filled in argument to undefined 
// we need this default argument so that the typescript compiler
// doesn't require the second argument to be filled in
function fn1 (bar: string, baz: number | undefined = undefined) {
    // do stuff
}

// All the above code can be simplified using the ? operator after the parameter
// In other words fn1 and fn2 are equivalent in behaviour
function fn2 (bar: string, baz?: number) {
    // do stuff
}



fn2('foo', 3); // works
fn2('foo'); // works

fn2();
// Compile time error: Expected 1-2 arguments, but got 0
// An argument for 'bar' was not provided.


fn1('foo', 3); // works
fn1('foo'); // works

fn1();
// Compile time error: Expected 1-2 arguments, but got 0
// An argument for 'bar' was not provided.

How to open the terminal in Atom?

I didn't want to install a package just for that purpose so I ended up using this in my init.coffee:

spawn = require('child_process').spawn
atom.commands.add 'atom-text-editor', 'open-terminal', ->
  file = atom.workspace.getActiveTextEditor().getPath()
  dir = atom.project.getDirectoryForProjectPath(file).path
  spawn 'mate-terminal', ["--working-directory=#{dir}"], {
    detached: true
  }

With that, I could map ctrl-shift-t to the open-terminal command and it opens a mate-terminal.

cpp / c++ get pointer value or depointerize pointer

To get the value of a pointer, just de-reference the pointer.

int *ptr;
int value;
*ptr = 9;

value = *ptr;

value is now 9.

I suggest you read more about pointers, this is their base functionality.

Oracle SQL - REGEXP_LIKE contains characters other than a-z or A-Z

Something like

select *

How to add a file to the last commit in git?

Yes, there's a command git commit --amend which is used to "fix" last commit.

In your case it would be called as:

git add the_left_out_file
git commit --amend --no-edit

The --no-edit flag allow to make amendment to commit without changing commit message.

EDIT: Warning You should never amend public commits, that you already pushed to public repository, because what amend does is actually removing from history last commit and creating new commit with combined changes from that commit and new added when amending.

summing two columns in a pandas dataframe

You could also use the .add() function:

 df.loc[:,'variance'] = df.loc[:,'budget'].add(df.loc[:,'actual'])

Add column to SQL query results

Manually add it when you build the query:

SELECT 'Site1' AS SiteName, t1.column, t1.column2
FROM t1

UNION ALL
SELECT 'Site2' AS SiteName, t2.column, t2.column2
FROM t2

UNION ALL
...

EXAMPLE:

DECLARE @t1 TABLE (column1 int, column2 nvarchar(1))
DECLARE @t2 TABLE (column1 int, column2 nvarchar(1))

INSERT INTO @t1
SELECT 1, 'a'
UNION SELECT 2, 'b'

INSERT INTO @t2
SELECT 3, 'c'
UNION SELECT 4, 'd'


SELECT 'Site1' AS SiteName, t1.column1, t1.column2
FROM @t1 t1

UNION ALL
SELECT 'Site2' AS SiteName, t2.column1, t2.column2
FROM @t2 t2

RESULT:

SiteName  column1  column2
Site1       1      a
Site1       2      b
Site2       3      c
Site2       4      d

Detect if Android device has Internet connection

If you're targeting Android 6.0 - Marshmallow (API level 23) or higher it's possible to use the new NetworkCapabilities class, i.e:

public static boolean hasInternetConnection(final Context context) {
    final ConnectivityManager connectivityManager = (ConnectivityManager)context.
            getSystemService(Context.CONNECTIVITY_SERVICE);

    final Network network = connectivityManager.getActiveNetwork();
    final NetworkCapabilities capabilities = connectivityManager
            .getNetworkCapabilities(network);

    return capabilities != null
            && capabilities.hasCapability(NetworkCapabilities.NET_CAPABILITY_VALIDATED);
}

How should I validate an e-mail address?

According to Patterns.EMAIL_ADDRESS, this email is correct "[email protected]". So I modified the regex in Patterns.EMAIL_ADDRESS and increased the minimum length for domain. Here is the function for Kotlin:

fun isEmailValid(email: String): Boolean =
    email.isNotEmpty() && Pattern.compile(
        "[a-zA-Z0-9\\+\\.\\_\\%\\-\\+]{1,256}" +
                "\\@" +
                "[a-zA-Z0-9][a-zA-Z0-9\\-]{0,64}" +
                "(" +
                "\\." +
                "[a-zA-Z0-9][a-zA-Z0-9\\-]{1,25}" +
                ")+"
    ).matcher(email).matches()

I just changed domain part from {0,25} to {1,25}.

403 Access Denied on Tomcat 8 Manager App without prompting for user/password


Correct answer can be found here


Looks like this issue can be reproduced while folowing mentioned tutorial on unix machines. Also noticed that author uses TC 8.0.33
Win (and OSX) do not have such issue, at least on my env:

Why does sudo change the PATH?

Just edit env_keep in /etc/sudoers

It looks something like this:

Defaults env_keep = "LANG LC_ADDRESS LC_CTYPE LC_COLLATE LC_IDENTIFICATION LC_MEASURE MENT LC_MESSAGES LC_MONETARY LC_NAME LC_NUMERIC LC_PAPER LC_TELEPHONE LC_TIME LC_ALL L ANGUAGE LINGUAS XDG_SESSION_COOKIE"

Just append PATH at the end, so after the change it would look like this:

Defaults env_keep = "LANG LC_ADDRESS LC_CTYPE LC_COLLATE LC_IDENTIFICATION LC_MEASURE MENT LC_MESSAGES LC_MONETARY LC_NAME LC_NUMERIC LC_PAPER LC_TELEPHONE LC_TIME LC_ALL L ANGUAGE LINGUAS XDG_SESSION_COOKIE PATH"

Close the terminal and then open again.

How to get the location of the DLL currently executing?

If you're working with an asp.net application and you want to locate assemblies when using the debugger, they are usually put into some temp directory. I wrote the this method to help with that scenario.

private string[] GetAssembly(string[] assemblyNames)
{
    string [] locations = new string[assemblyNames.Length];


    for (int loop = 0; loop <= assemblyNames.Length - 1; loop++)       
    {
         locations[loop] = AppDomain.CurrentDomain.GetAssemblies().Where(a => !a.IsDynamic && a.ManifestModule.Name == assemblyNames[loop]).Select(a => a.Location).FirstOrDefault();
    }
    return locations;
}

For more details see this blog post http://nodogmablog.bryanhogan.net/2015/05/finding-the-location-of-a-running-assembly-in-net/

If you can't change the source code, or redeploy, but you can examine the running processes on the computer use Process Explorer. I written a detailed description here.

It will list all executing dlls on the system, you may need to determine the process id of your running application, but that is usually not too difficult.

I've written a full description of how do this for a dll inside IIS - http://nodogmablog.bryanhogan.net/2016/09/locating-and-checking-an-executing-dll-on-a-running-web-server/

How to change root logging level programmatically for logback

using logback 1.1.3 I had to do the following (Scala code):

import ch.qos.logback.classic.Logger
import org.slf4j.LoggerFactory    
...
val root: Logger = LoggerFactory.getLogger(org.slf4j.Logger.ROOT_LOGGER_NAME).asInstanceOf[Logger]

MyISAM versus InnoDB

I know this won't be popular but here goes:

myISAM lacks support for database essentials like transactions and referential integrity which often results in glitchy / buggy applications. You cannot not learn proper database design fundamentals if they are not even supported by your db engine.

Not using referential integrity or transactions in the database world is like not using object oriented programming in the software world.

InnoDB exists now, use that instead! Even MySQL developers have finally conceded to change this to the default engine in newer versions, despite myISAM being the original engine that was the default in all legacy systems.

No it does not matter if you are reading or writing or what performance considerations you have, using myISAM can result in a variety of problems, such as this one I just ran into: I was performing a database sync and at the same time someone else accessed an application that accessed a table set to myISAM. Due to the lack of transaction support and the generally poor reliability of this engine, this crashed the entire database and I had to manually restart mysql!

Over the past 15 years of development I have used many databases and engines. myISAM crashed on me about a dozen times during this period, other databases, only once! And that was a microsoft SQL database where some developer wrote faulty CLR code (common language runtime - basically C# code that executes inside the database) by the way, it was not the database engine's fault exactly.

I agree with the other answers here that say that quality high-availability, high-performance applications should not use myISAM as it will not work, it is not robust or stable enough to result in a frustration-free experience. See Bill Karwin's answer for more details.

P.S. Gotta love it when myISAM fanboys downvote but can't tell you which part of this answer is incorrect.

Sleep/Wait command in Batch

How can I represent a range in Java?

You could use java.time.temporal.ValueRange which accepts long and would also work with int:

int a = 2147;

//Use java 8 java.time.temporal.ValueRange. The range defined
//is inclusive of both min and max 
ValueRange range = ValueRange.of(0, 2147483647);

if(range.isValidValue(a)) {
    System.out.println("in range");
}else {
    System.out.println("not in range");
}

How can I get the values of data attributes in JavaScript code?

if you are targeting data attribute in Html element,

document.dataset will not work

you should use

document.querySelector("html").dataset.pbUserId

or

document.getElementsByTagName("html")[0].dataset.pbUserId

Google Script to see if text contains a value

I used the Google Apps Script method indexOf() and its results were wrong. So I wrote the small function Myindexof(), instead of indexOf:

function Myindexof(s,text)
{
  var lengths = s.length;
  var lengtht = text.length;
  for (var i = 0;i < lengths - lengtht + 1;i++)
  {
    if (s.substring(i,lengtht + i) == text)
      return i;
  }
  return -1;
}

var s = 'Hello!';
var text = 'llo';
if (Myindexof(s,text) > -1)
   Logger.log('yes');
else
   Logger.log('no');

How to show git log history (i.e., all the related commits) for a sub directory of a git repo?

From directory foo/, use

  git log -- A

You need the '--' to separate <path>.. from the <since>..<until> refspecs.

# Show changes for src/nvfs
$ git log --oneline -- src/nvfs
d6f6b3b Changes for Mac OS X
803fcc3 Initial Commit

# Show all changes (one additional commit besides in src/nvfs).
$ git log --oneline
d6f6b3b Changes for Mac OS X
96cbb79 gitignore
803fcc3 Initial Commit

anchor jumping by using javascript

Not enough rep for a comment.

The getElementById() based method in the selected answer won't work if the anchor has name but not id set (which is not recommended, but does happen in the wild).

Something to bare in mind if you don't have control of the document markup (e.g. webextension).

The location based method in the selected answer can also be simplified with location.replace:

function jump(hash) { location.replace("#" + hash) }

Getting the client IP address: REMOTE_ADDR, HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR, what else could be useful?

If you're behind a proxy, you should use X-Forwarded-For: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/X-Forwarded-For

It is an IETF draft standard with wide support:

The X-Forwarded-For field is supported by most proxy servers, including Squid, Apache mod_proxy, Pound, HAProxy, Varnish cache, IronPort Web Security Appliance, AVANU WebMux, ArrayNetworks, Radware's AppDirector and Alteon ADC, ADC-VX, and ADC-VA, F5 Big-IP, Blue Coat ProxySG, Cisco Cache Engine, McAfee Web Gateway, Phion Airlock, Finjan's Vital Security, NetApp NetCache, jetNEXUS, Crescendo Networks' Maestro, Web Adjuster and Websense Web Security Gateway.

If not, here are a couple other common headers I've seen:

How do a send an HTTPS request through a proxy in Java?

Try the Apache Commons HttpClient library instead of trying to roll your own: http://hc.apache.org/httpclient-3.x/index.html

From their sample code:

  HttpClient httpclient = new HttpClient();
  httpclient.getHostConfiguration().setProxy("myproxyhost", 8080);

  /* Optional if authentication is required.
  httpclient.getState().setProxyCredentials("my-proxy-realm", " myproxyhost",
   new UsernamePasswordCredentials("my-proxy-username", "my-proxy-password"));
  */

  PostMethod post = new PostMethod("https://someurl");
  NameValuePair[] data = {
     new NameValuePair("user", "joe"),
     new NameValuePair("password", "bloggs")
  };
  post.setRequestBody(data);
  // execute method and handle any error responses.
  // ...
  InputStream in = post.getResponseBodyAsStream();
  // handle response.


  /* Example for a GET reqeust
  GetMethod httpget = new GetMethod("https://someurl");
  try { 
    httpclient.executeMethod(httpget);
    System.out.println(httpget.getStatusLine());
  } finally {
    httpget.releaseConnection();
  }

How can I select from list of values in SQL Server

Available only on SQL Server 2008 and over is row-constructor in this form:
You could use

SELECT DISTINCT * FROM (VALUES (1), (1), (1), (2), (5), (1), (6)) AS X(a)

Many wrote about, among them:

What is the canonical way to trim a string in Ruby without creating a new string?

I guess what you want is:

@title = tokens[Title]
@title.strip!

The #strip! method will return nil if it didn't strip anything, and the variable itself if it was stripped.

According to Ruby standards, a method suffixed with an exclamation mark changes the variable in place.

Hope this helps.

Update: This is output from irb to demonstrate:

>> @title = "abc"
=> "abc"
>> @title.strip!
=> nil
>> @title
=> "abc"
>> @title = " abc "
=> " abc "
>> @title.strip!
=> "abc"
>> @title
=> "abc"

Get current directory name (without full path) in a Bash script

No need for basename, and especially no need for a subshell running pwd (which adds an extra, and expensive, fork operation); the shell can do this internally using parameter expansion:

result=${PWD##*/}          # to assign to a variable

printf '%s\n' "${PWD##*/}" # to print to stdout
                           # ...more robust than echo for unusual names
                           #    (consider a directory named -e or -n)

printf '%q\n' "${PWD##*/}" # to print to stdout, quoted for use as shell input
                           # ...useful to make hidden characters readable.

Note that if you're applying this technique in other circumstances (not PWD, but some other variable holding a directory name), you might need to trim any trailing slashes. The below uses bash's extglob support to work even with multiple trailing slashes:

dirname=/path/to/somewhere//
shopt -s extglob           # enable +(...) glob syntax
result=${dirname%%+(/)}    # trim however many trailing slashes exist
result=${result##*/}       # remove everything before the last / that still remains
printf '%s\n' "$result"

Alternatively, without extglob:

dirname="/path/to/somewhere//"
result="${dirname%"${dirname##*[!/]}"}" # extglob-free multi-trailing-/ trim
result="${result##*/}"                  # remove everything before the last /

Simple proof that GUID is not unique

GUIDs are 124 bits because 4 bits hold the version number.

Two color borders

This produces a nice effect.

Is there a way to use SVG as content in a pseudo element :before or :after

Making use of CSS sprites and data uri gives extra interesting benefits like fast loading and less requests AND we get IE8 support by using image/base64:

Codepen sample using SVG

HTML

<div class="div1"></div>
<div class="div2"></div>

CSS

.div1:after, .div2:after {
  content: '';
  display: block;
  height: 80px;
  width: 80px;
  background-image: url(data:image/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns%3D%22http%3A%2F%2Fwww.w3.org%2F2000%2Fsvg%22%20version%3D%221.1%22%20height%3D%2280%22%20width%3D%22160%22%3E%0D%0A%20%20%3Ccircle%20cx%3D%2240%22%20cy%3D%2240%22%20r%3D%2238%22%20stroke%3D%22black%22%20stroke-width%3D%221%22%20fill%3D%22red%22%20%2F%3E%0D%0A%20%20%3Ccircle%20cx%3D%22120%22%20cy%3D%2240%22%20r%3D%2238%22%20stroke%3D%22black%22%20stroke-width%3D%221%22%20fill%3D%22blue%22%20%2F%3E%0D%0A%3C%2Fsvg%3E);
}
.div2:after {
  background-position: -80px 0;
}

For IE8, change to this:

  background-image: url(data:image/png;base64,data......);

connecting to mysql server on another PC in LAN

You don't have to specify ':3306' after the IP, it's the default port for MySQL.

And if your MySQL server runs with another port than 3306, then you have to add '-P [port]' instead of adding it to the IP address.

The MySQL client won't recognize the syntax "host:port", you HAVE to use -P [port] instead.

And btw, if you use '-p password', it won't work and will ask you the password again. You have to stick the password to the -p : -ppassword. (still, it's a very bad habit, because anyone that could do a PS on your server could see the plain password...)

How can I select all children of an element except the last child?

When IE9 comes, it will be easier. A lot of the time though, you can switch the problem to one requiring :first-child and style the opposite side of the element (IE7+).

Delete a closed pull request from GitHub

5 step to do what you want if you made the pull request from a forked repository:

  1. reopen the pull request
  2. checkout to the branch which you made the pull request
  3. reset commit to the last master commit(that means remove all you new code)
  4. git push --force
  5. delete your forked repository which made the pull request

And everything is done, good luck!

How to set placeholder value using CSS?

Change your meta tag to the one below and use placeholder attribute inside your HTML input tag.

_x000D_
_x000D_
<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=edge" />_x000D_
<input type="text" placeholder="Placeholder text" />?
_x000D_
_x000D_
_x000D_

Delete specific values from column with where condition?

Try this SQL statement:

update Table set Column =( Column - your val )

React setState not updating state

As well as noting the asynchronous nature of setState, be aware that you may have competing event handlers, one doing the state change you want and the other immediately undoing it again. For example onClick on a component whose parent also handles the onClick. Check by adding trace. Prevent this by using e.stopPropagation.

Get a list of all git commits, including the 'lost' ones

git log --reflog

saved me! I lost mine while merging HEAD and could not find my lates commit! Not showing in source tree but git log --reflog show all my local commits before

What are the differences between JSON and JSONP?

JSONP stands for “JSON with Padding” and it is a workaround for loading data from different domains. It loads the script into the head of the DOM and thus you can access the information as if it were loaded on your own domain, thus by-passing the cross domain issue.

jsonCallback(
{
    "sites":
    [
        {
            "siteName": "JQUERY4U",
            "domainName": "http://www.jquery4u.com",
            "description": "#1 jQuery Blog for your Daily News, Plugins, Tuts/Tips &amp; Code Snippets."
        },
        {
            "siteName": "BLOGOOLA",
            "domainName": "http://www.blogoola.com",
            "description": "Expose your blog to millions and increase your audience."
        },
        {
            "siteName": "PHPSCRIPTS4U",
            "domainName": "http://www.phpscripts4u.com",
            "description": "The Blog of Enthusiastic PHP Scripters"
        }
    ]
});

(function($) {
var url = 'http://www.jquery4u.com/scripts/jquery4u-sites.json?callback=?';

$.ajax({
   type: 'GET',
    url: url,
    async: false,
    jsonpCallback: 'jsonCallback',
    contentType: "application/json",
    dataType: 'jsonp',
    success: function(json) {
       console.dir(json.sites);
    },
    error: function(e) {
       console.log(e.message);
    }
});

})(jQuery);

Now we can request the JSON via AJAX using JSONP and the callback function we created around the JSON content. The output should be the JSON as an object which we can then use the data for whatever we want without restrictions.

Handling NULL values in Hive

What is the datatype for column1 in your Hive table? Please note that if your column is STRING it won't be having a NULL value even though your external file does not have any data for that column.

Send POST request with JSON data using Volley

I know that this thread is quite old, but I had this problem and I came up with a cool solution which can be very useful to many because it corrects/extended the Volley library on many aspects.

I spotted some not supported-out-of-box Volley features:

  • This JSONObjectRequest is not perfect: you have to expect a JSON at the end (see the Response.Listener<JSONObject>).
  • What about Empty Responses (just with a 200 status)?
  • What do I do if I want directly my POJO from the ResponseListener?

I more or less compiled a lot of solutions in a big generic class in order to have a solution for all the problem I quoted.

It could seem a bit overkill but it's pretty cool to have all these constructors because you have all the cases:

(The main constructor wasn't meant to be used directly although it's, of course, possible).

  1. Request with response parsed to POJO / Headers manually set / POJO to Send
  2. Request with response parsed to POJO / POJO to Send
  3. Request with response parsed to POJO / String to Send
  4. Request with response parsed to POJO (GET)
  5. Request with response parsed to POJO (GET) / Headers manually set
  6. Request with no response (200 - Empty Body) / Headers manually set / POJO to Send
  7. Request with no response (200 - Empty Body) / POJO to Send
  8. Request with no response (200 - Empty Body) / String to Send

Of course, in order that it works, you have to have Google's GSON Lib; just add:

compile 'com.google.code.gson:gson:x.y.z'

to your dependencies (current version is 2.3.1).

    for x, y in someList:
        if x == value :
            yield x,y

result= list( filter_value( a, 1 ) )

What is the simplest way to write the contents of a StringBuilder to a text file in .NET 1.1?

No need for a StringBuilder:

string path = @"c:\hereIAm.txt";
if (!File.Exists(path)) 
{
    // Create a file to write to.
    using (StreamWriter sw = File.CreateText(path)) 
    {
        sw.WriteLine("Here");
        sw.WriteLine("I");
        sw.WriteLine("am.");
    }    
} 

But of course you can use the StringBuilder to create all lines and write them to the file at once.

sw.Write(stringBuilder.ToString());

SSL Error When installing rubygems, Unable to pull data from 'https://rubygems.org/

Try to use the source website for the gems, i.e rubygems.org. Use http instead of https. This method does not involve any work such as installing certs and all that.

Example -

gem install typhoeus --source http://rubygems.org

This works, but there is one caveat though.

The gem is installed, but the documentation is not because of cert errors. Here is the error I get

Understanding the Linux oom-killer's logs

Memory management in Linux is a bit tricky to understand, and I can't say I fully understand it yet, but I'll try to share a little bit of my experience and knowledge.

Short answer to your question: Yes there are other stuff included than whats in the list.

What's being shown in your list is applications run in userspace. The kernel uses memory for itself and modules, on top of that it also has a lower limit of free memory that you can't go under. When you've reached that level it will try to free up resources, and when it can't do that anymore, you end up with an OOM problem.

From the last line of your list you can read that the kernel reports a total-vm usage of: 1498536kB (1,5GB), where the total-vm includes both your physical RAM and swap space. You stated you don't have any swap but the kernel seems to think otherwise since your swap space is reported to be full (Total swap = 524284kB, Free swap = 0kB) and it reports a total vmem size of 1,5GB.

Another thing that can complicate things further is memory fragmentation. You can hit the OOM killer when the kernel tries to allocate lets say 4096kB of continous memory, but there are no free ones availible.

Now that alone probably won't help you solve the actual problem. I don't know if it's normal for your program to require that amount of memory, but I would recommend to try a static code analyzer like cppcheck to check for memory leaks or file descriptor leaks. You could also try to run it through Valgrind to get a bit more information out about memory usage.

Enable SQL Server Broker taking too long

Enabling SQL Server Service Broker requires a database lock. Stop the SQL Server Agent and then execute the following:

USE master ;
GO

ALTER DATABASE [MyDatabase] SET ENABLE_BROKER ;
GO

Change [MyDatabase] with the name of your database in question and then start SQL Server Agent.

If you want to see all the databases that have Service Broker enabled or disabled, then query sys.databases, for instance:

SELECT
    name, database_id, is_broker_enabled
FROM sys.databases

Linq to SQL .Sum() without group ... into

I know this is an old question but why can't you do it like:

I am not sure how to do this using query expressions.

Allow only numbers to be typed in a textbox

You also can use some HTML5 attributes, some browsers might already take advantage of them (type="number" min="0").

Whatever you do, remember to re-check your inputs on the server side: you can never assume the client-side validation has been performed.

How to replace multiple patterns at once with sed?

Here is a variation on ooga's answer that works for multiple search and replace pairs without having to check how values might be reused:

sed -i '
s/\bAB\b/________BC________/g
s/\bBC\b/________CD________/g
s/________//g
' path_to_your_files/*.txt

Here is an example:

before:

some text AB some more text "BC" and more text.

after:

some text BC some more text "CD" and more text.

Note that \b denotes word boundaries, which is what prevents the ________ from interfering with the search (I'm using GNU sed 4.2.2 on Ubuntu). If you are not using a word boundary search, then this technique may not work.

Also note that this gives the same results as removing the s/________//g and appending && sed -i 's/________//g' path_to_your_files/*.txt to the end of the command, but doesn't require specifying the path twice.

A general variation on this would be to use \x0 or _\x0_ in place of ________ if you know that no nulls appear in your files, as jthill suggested.

Java, return if trimmed String in List contains String

Try this:

for(String str: myList) {
    if(str.trim().equals("A"))
       return true;
}
return false;

You need to use str.equals or str.equalsIgnoreCase instead of contains because contains in string works not the same as contains in List

List<String> s = Arrays.asList("BAB", "SAB", "DAS");
s.contains("A"); // false
"BAB".contains("A"); // true

How can I pad a value with leading zeros?

Even later to the party.

function zfill(num, len) {
  return(0 > num ? "-" : "") + (Math.pow(10, len) <= Math.abs(num) ? "0" + Math.abs(num) : Math.pow(10, len) + Math.abs(num)).toString().substr(1)
}

This handles negatives and situations where the number is longer than the field width. And floating-point.

Django set default form values

As explained in Django docs, initial is not default.

  • The initial value of a field is intended to be displayed in an HTML . But if the user delete this value, and finally send back a blank value for this field, the initial value is lost. So you do not obtain what is expected by a default behaviour.

  • The default behaviour is : the value that validation process will take if data argument do not contain any value for the field.

To implement that, a straightforward way is to combine initial and clean_<field>():

class JournalForm(ModelForm):
    tank = forms.IntegerField(widget=forms.HiddenInput(), initial=123) 

    (...)

    def clean_tank(self):
        if not self['tank'].html_name in self.data:
            return self.fields['tank'].initial
        return self.cleaned_data['tank']

How to increase request timeout in IIS?

Lodash remove duplicates from array

_.uniq([2, 1, 2]);

Python str vs unicode types

When you define a as unicode, the chars a and á are equal. Otherwise á counts as two chars. Try len(a) and len(au). In addition to that, you may need to have the encoding when you work with other environments. For example if you use md5, you get different values for a and ua

Get today date in google appScript

    // You could use now Date(); on its own but it will not look nice.
  var date = Utilities.formatDate(new Date(), "GMT+5:30", "yyyy-MM-dd");
    //var endDate = date;
    sheet.getRange(sheet.getLastRow() + 1,1).setValue(date); //Gets the last row which had value, and goes to the next empty row to put new values.

data.map is not a function

data is not an array, it is an object with an array of products so iterate over data.products

var allProducts = data.products.map(function (item) {

.NET Format a string with fixed spaces

This will give you exactly the strings that you asked for:

string s = "String goes here";
string lineAlignedRight  = String.Format("{0,27}", s);
string lineAlignedCenter = String.Format("{0,-27}",
    String.Format("{0," + ((27 + s.Length) / 2).ToString() +  "}", s));
string lineAlignedLeft   = String.Format("{0,-27}", s);

Shift elements in a numpy array

If you want a one-liner from numpy and aren't too concerned about performance, try:

np.sum(np.diag(the_array,1),0)[:-1]

Explanation: np.diag(the_array,1) creates a matrix with your array one-off the diagonal, np.sum(...,0) sums the matrix column-wise, and ...[:-1] takes the elements that would correspond to the size of the original array. Playing around with the 1 and :-1 as parameters can give you shifts in different directions.

How to calculate the inverse of the normal cumulative distribution function in python?

NORMSINV (mentioned in a comment) is the inverse of the CDF of the standard normal distribution. Using scipy, you can compute this with the ppf method of the scipy.stats.norm object. The acronym ppf stands for percent point function, which is another name for the quantile function.

In [20]: from scipy.stats import norm

In [21]: norm.ppf(0.95)
Out[21]: 1.6448536269514722

Check that it is the inverse of the CDF:

In [34]: norm.cdf(norm.ppf(0.95))
Out[34]: 0.94999999999999996

By default, norm.ppf uses mean=0 and stddev=1, which is the "standard" normal distribution. You can use a different mean and standard deviation by specifying the loc and scale arguments, respectively.

In [35]: norm.ppf(0.95, loc=10, scale=2)
Out[35]: 13.289707253902945

If you look at the source code for scipy.stats.norm, you'll find that the ppf method ultimately calls scipy.special.ndtri. So to compute the inverse of the CDF of the standard normal distribution, you could use that function directly:

In [43]: from scipy.special import ndtri

In [44]: ndtri(0.95)
Out[44]: 1.6448536269514722

Setting up redirect in web.config file

You probably want to look at something like URL Rewrite to rewrite URLs to more user friendly ones rather than using a simple httpRedirect. You could then make a rule like this:

<system.webServer>
  <rewrite>
    <rules>
      <rule name="Rewrite to Category">
        <match url="^Category/([_0-9a-z-]+)/([_0-9a-z-]+)" />
        <action type="Rewrite" url="category.aspx?cid={R:2}" />
      </rule>
    </rules>
  </rewrite>
</system.webServer>

How do I get values from a SQL database into textboxes using C#?

If you want to display single value access from database into textbox, please refer to the code below:

SqlConnection con=new SqlConnection("connection string");
SqlCommand cmd=new SqlConnection(SqlQuery,Con);
Con.Open();
TextBox1.Text=cmd.ExecuteScalar();
Con.Close();

or

SqlConnection con=new SqlConnection("connection string");
SqlCommand cmd=new SqlConnection(SqlQuery,Con);
Con.Open();
SqlDataReader dr=new SqlDataReadr();
dr=cmd.Executereader();
if(dr.read())
{
    TextBox1.Text=dr.GetValue(0).Tostring();
}
Con.Close();

How to break out of a loop from inside a switch?

If I remember C++ syntax well, you can add a label to break statements, just like for goto. So what you want would be easily written:

while(true) {
    switch(msg->state) {
    case MSGTYPE: // ...
        break;
    // ... more stuff ...
    case DONE:
        break outofloop; // **HERE, I want to break out of the loop itself**
    }
}

outofloop:
// rest of your code here

How do you know if Tomcat Server is installed on your PC

In case of Windows(in my case XP):-

  1. Check the directory where tomcat is installed.
  2. Open the directory called \conf in it.
  3. Then search file server.xml
  4. Open that file and check what is the connector port for HTTP,whre you will found something like 8009,8080 etc.
  5. Suppose it found 8009,use that port as "/localhost:8009/" in your web-browser with HTTP protocol. Hope this will work !

Move entire line up and down in Vim

add the following to ~/.vimrc file (make sure you have no mapping for n,m )

nmap n :m +1<CR>
nmap m :m -2<CR>

now pressing n key will move a line down and m will move a line up.

Vue.js—Difference between v-model and v-bind

v-model is for two way bindings means: if you change input value, the bound data will be changed and vice versa. But v-bind:value is called one way binding that means: you can change input value by changing bound data but you can't change bound data by changing input value through the element.

v-model is intended to be used with form elements. It allows you to tie the form element (e.g. a text input) with the data object in your Vue instance.

Example: https://jsfiddle.net/jamesbrndwgn/j2yb9zt1/1/

v-bind is intended to be used with components to create custom props. This allows you to pass data to a component. As the prop is reactive, if the data that’s passed to the component changes then the component will reflect this change

Example: https://jsfiddle.net/jamesbrndwgn/ws5kad1c/3/

Hope this helps you with basic understanding.

No Android SDK found - Android Studio

From the File menu, choose Project Structure (if you're running 0.4.4 there's a bug and the menu item doesn't have a title, but it still works), and choose the Android SDK item. You should see something like this where you can set up your JDK and SDK.

After setting it, quit Android Studio and relaunch it for good measure.

Export to csv in jQuery

By using just jQuery, you cannot avoid a server call.

However, to achieve this result, I'm using Downloadify, which lets me save files without having to make another server call. Doing this reduces server load and makes a good user experience.

To get a proper CSV you just have to take out all the unnecessary tags and put a ',' between the data.

How to create separate AngularJS controller files?

Not so graceful, but the very much simple in implementation solution - using global variable.

In the "first" file:


window.myApp = angular.module("myApp", [])
....

in the "second" , "third", etc:


myApp.controller('MyController', function($scope) {
    .... 
    }); 

Query an object array using linq

Add:

using System.Linq;

to the top of your file.

And then:

Car[] carList = ...
var carMake = 
    from item in carList
    where item.Model == "bmw" 
    select item.Make;

or if you prefer the fluent syntax:

var carMake = carList
    .Where(item => item.Model == "bmw")
    .Select(item => item.Make);

Things to pay attention to:

  • The usage of item.Make in the select clause instead if s.Make as in your code.
  • You have a whitespace between item and .Model in your where clause

Programmatically change the src of an img tag

Spring Boot Adding Http Request Interceptors

Since you're using Spring Boot, I assume you'd prefer to rely on Spring's auto configuration where possible. To add additional custom configuration like your interceptors, just provide a configuration or bean of WebMvcConfigurerAdapter.

Here's an example of a config class:

@Configuration
public class WebMvcConfig extends WebMvcConfigurerAdapter {

  @Autowired 
  HandlerInterceptor yourInjectedInterceptor;

  @Override
  public void addInterceptors(InterceptorRegistry registry) {
    registry.addInterceptor(...)
    ...
    registry.addInterceptor(getYourInterceptor()); 
    registry.addInterceptor(yourInjectedInterceptor);
    // next two should be avoid -- tightly coupled and not very testable
    registry.addInterceptor(new YourInterceptor());
    registry.addInterceptor(new HandlerInterceptor() {
        ...
    });
  }
}

NOTE do not annotate this with @EnableWebMvc, if you want to keep Spring Boots auto configuration for mvc.

iOS - UIImageView - how to handle UIImage image orientation

If I understand, what you want to do is disregard the orientation of the UIImage? If so then you could do this:

UIImage *originalImage = [... whatever ...];

UIImage *imageToDisplay =
     [UIImage imageWithCGImage:[originalImage CGImage]
              scale:[originalImage scale]
              orientation: UIImageOrientationUp];

So you're creating a new UIImage with the same pixel data as the original (referenced via its CGImage property) but you're specifying an orientation that doesn't rotate the data.

How to set a default entity property value with Hibernate

Suppose we have an entity which contains a sub-entity.

Using insertable = false, updatable = false on the entity prevents the entity from creating new sub-entities and preceding the default DBMS value. But the problem with this is that we are obliged to always use the default value or if we need the entity to contain another sub-entity that is not the default, we must try to change these annotations at runtime to insertable = true, updatable = true, so it doesn't seem like a good path.

Inside the sub-entity if it makes more sense to use in all the columns insertable = false, updatable = false so that no more sub-entities are created regardless of the method we use (with @DynamicInsert it would not be necessary)

Inserting a default value can be done in various ways such as Default entity property value using constructor or setter. Other ways like using JPA with columnDefinition have the drawback that they insert a null by default and the default value of the DBMS does not precede.


Insert default value using DBMS and optional using Hibernate

But using @DynamicInsert we avoid sending a null to the db when we want to insert a sub-entity with its default value, and in turn we allow sub-entities with values other than the default to be inserted.

For inserting, should this entity use dynamic sql generation where only non-null columns get referenced in the prepared sql statement?

Given the following needs:

  • The entity does not have the responsibility of creating new sub-entities.
  • When inserting an entity, the sub-entity is the one that was defined as default in the DBMS.
  • Possibility of creating an entity with a sub-entity which has a UUID other than the default.

DBMS: PostgreSQL | Language: Kotlin

@Entity
@Table(name = "entity")
@DynamicInsert
data class EntityTest(
        @Id @GeneratedValue @Column(name = "entity_uuid") val entityUUID: UUID? = null,

        @OneToOne(cascade = [CascadeType.ALL])
        @JoinColumn(name = "subentity_uuid", referencedColumnName = "subentity_uuid")
        var subentityTest: SubentityTest? = null
) {}

@Entity
@Table(name = "subentity")
data class SubentityTest(
        @Id @GeneratedValue @Column(name = "subentity_uuid", insertable = false, updatable = false) var subentityUUID: UUID? = null,
        @Column(insertable = false, updatable = false) var name: String,
) {
        constructor() : this(name = "")
}

And the value is set by default in the database:

alter table entity alter column subentity_uuid set default 'd87ee95b-06f1-52ab-83ed-5d882ae400e6'::uuid;

Why check both isset() and !empty()

The accepted answer is not correct.

isset() is NOT equivalent to !empty().

You will create some rather unpleasant and hard to debug bugs if you go down this route. e.g. try running this code:

<?php

$s = '';

print "isset: '" . isset($s) . "'. ";
print "!empty: '" . !empty($s) . "'";

?>

How can I get the size of an std::vector as an int?

In the first two cases, you simply forgot to actually call the member function (!, it's not a value) std::vector<int>::size like this:

#include <vector>

int main () {
    std::vector<int> v;
    auto size = v.size();
}

Your third call

int size = v.size();

triggers a warning, as not every return value of that function (usually a 64 bit unsigned int) can be represented as a 32 bit signed int.

int size = static_cast<int>(v.size());

would always compile cleanly and also explicitly states that your conversion from std::vector::size_type to int was intended.

Note that if the size of the vector is greater than the biggest number an int can represent, size will contain an implementation defined (de facto garbage) value.

How to delete a cookie?

would this work?

function eraseCookie(name) {
    document.cookie = name + '=; Max-Age=0'
}

I know Max-Age causes the cookie to be a session cookie in IE when creating the cookie. Not sure how it works when deleting cookies.

How to create a numeric vector of zero length in R

This isn't a very beautiful answer, but it's what I use to create zero-length vectors:

0[-1]     # numeric
""[-1]    # character
TRUE[-1]  # logical
0L[-1]    # integer

A literal is a vector of length 1, and [-1] removes the first element (the only element in this case) from the vector, leaving a vector with zero elements.

As a bonus, if you want a single NA of the respective type:

0[NA]     # numeric
""[NA]    # character
TRUE[NA]  # logical
0L[NA]    # integer

Center an element in Bootstrap 4 Navbar

In Bootstrap 4, there is a new utility known as .mx-auto. You just need to specify the width of the centered element.

Ref: http://v4-alpha.getbootstrap.com/utilities/spacing/#horizontal-centering

Diffferent from Bass Jobsen's answer, which is a relative center to the elements on both ends, the following example is absolute centered.

Here's the HTML:

<nav class="navbar bg-faded">
  <div class="container">
    <ul class="nav navbar-nav pull-sm-left">
      <li class="nav-item">
        <a class="nav-link" href="#">Link 1</a>
      </li>
      <li class="nav-item">
        <a class="nav-link" href="#">Link 2</a>
      </li>
      <li class="nav-item">
        <a class="nav-link" href="#">Link 3</a>
      </li>
      <li class="nav-item">
        <a class="nav-link" href="#">Link 4</a>
      </li>
    </ul>
    <ul class="nav navbar-nav navbar-logo mx-auto">
      <li class="nav-item">
        <a class="nav-link" href="#">Brand</a>
      </li>
    </ul>
    <ul class="nav navbar-nav pull-sm-right">
      <li class="nav-item">
        <a class="nav-link" href="#">Link 5</a>
      </li>
      <li class="nav-item">
        <a class="nav-link" href="#">Link 6</a>
      </li>
    </ul>
  </div>
</nav>

And CSS:

.navbar-logo {
  width: 90px;
}

How do I split a string into an array of characters?

You can use the regular expression /(?!$)/:

"overpopulation".split(/(?!$)/)

The negative look-ahead assertion (?!$) will match right in front of every character.

MySQL create stored procedure syntax with delimiter

Here is my code to create procedure in MySQL :

DELIMITER $$
CREATE DEFINER=`root`@`localhost` PROCEDURE `procedureName`(IN comId int)
BEGIN
select * from tableName 
         (add joins OR sub query as per your requirement)
         Where (where condition here)
END $$
DELIMITER ;

To call this procedure use this query :

call procedureName(); // without parameter
call procedureName(id,pid); // with parameter

Detail :

1) DEFINER : root is the user name and change it as per your username of mysql localhost is the host you can change it with ip address of the server if you are execute this query on hosting server.

swift UITableView set rowHeight

As pointed out in comments, you cannot call cellForRowAtIndexPath inside heightForRowAtIndexPath.

What you can do is creating a template cell used to populate with your data and then compute its height. This cell doesn't participate to the table rendering, and it can be reused to calculate the height of each table cell.

Briefly, it consists of configuring the template cell with the data you want to display, make it resize accordingly to the content, and then read its height.

I have taken this code from a project I am working on - unfortunately it's in Objective C, I don't think you will have problems translating to swift

- (CGFloat) tableView:(UITableView *)tableView heightForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath {
    static PostCommentCell *sizingCell = nil;
    static dispatch_once_t onceToken;
    dispatch_once(&onceToken, ^{
        sizingCell = [self.tblComments dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier:POST_COMMENT_CELL_IDENTIFIER];
    });

    sizingCell.comment = self.comments[indexPath.row];
    [sizingCell setNeedsLayout];
    [sizingCell layoutIfNeeded];

    CGSize size = [sizingCell.contentView systemLayoutSizeFittingSize:UILayoutFittingCompressedSize];
    return size.height;
}

Styling HTML email for Gmail

As others have said, some email programs will not read the css styles. If you already have a web email written up you can use the following tool from zurb to inline all of your styles:

http://zurb.com/ink/inliner.php

This comes in extremely handy when using templates like those mentioned above from mailchimp, campaign monitor, etc. as they, as you have found, will not work in some email programs. This tool leaves your style section for the mail programs that will read it and puts all the styles inline to get more universal readability in the format that you wanted.

How to split a string with any whitespace chars as delimiters

Study this code.. good luck

    public static void main(String args[]){
        Scanner input = new Scanner(System.in);
        System.out.print("Input String : ");

What is the easiest way to get current GMT time in Unix timestamp format?

I like this method:

import datetime, time

dts = datetime.datetime.utcnow()
epochtime = round(time.mktime(dts.timetuple()) + dts.microsecond/1e6)

The other methods posted here are either not guaranteed to give you UTC on all platforms or only report whole seconds. If you want full resolution, this works, to the micro-second.

Custom Python list sorting

It's documented here.

The sort() method takes optional arguments for controlling the comparisons.

cmp specifies a custom comparison function of two arguments (list items) which should return a negative, zero or positive number depending on whether the first argument is considered smaller than, equal to, or larger than the second argument: cmp=lambda x,y: cmp(x.lower(), y.lower()). The default value is None.

sqlalchemy IS NOT NULL select

column_obj != None will produce a IS NOT NULL constraint:

In a column context, produces the clause a != b. If the target is None, produces a IS NOT NULL.

or use isnot() (new in 0.7.9):

Implement the IS NOT operator.

Normally, IS NOT is generated automatically when comparing to a value of None, which resolves to NULL. However, explicit usage of IS NOT may be desirable if comparing to boolean values on certain platforms.

Demo:

>>> from sqlalchemy.sql import column
>>> column('YourColumn') != None
<sqlalchemy.sql.elements.BinaryExpression object at 0x10c8d8b90>
>>> str(column('YourColumn') != None)
'"YourColumn" IS NOT NULL'
>>> column('YourColumn').isnot(None)
<sqlalchemy.sql.elements.BinaryExpression object at 0x104603850>
>>> str(column('YourColumn').isnot(None))
'"YourColumn" IS NOT NULL'

Remove category & tag base from WordPress url - without a plugin

Whilst you dismiss it as a solution, the plugin is by far the easiest and most consistent method and they don't change any WordPress default files.

http://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-no-category-base/

It hasn't needed to be updated for a year, so it is not exactly creating any problems with updates.

There is no simple hand rolled solution that will do all of this that does not just replicate what the plugin does from within your own functions.php

  • Better and logical permalinks like myblog.com/my-category/ and myblog.com/my-category/my-post/.
  • Simple plugin - barely adds any overhead.
  • Works out of the box - no setup needed. No need to modify WordPress files.
  • Doesn't require other plugins to work.
  • Compatible with sitemap plugins.
  • Works with multiple sub-categories.
  • Works with WordPress Multisite.
  • Redirects old category permalinks to the new ones (301 redirect, good for SEO).

Plus you get the benefit that if WordPress does change, then the plugin will be updated to work whilst you would then have to figure out how to fix your own code on your own.

HashMap to return default value for non-found keys?

Java 8 introduced a nice computeIfAbsent default method to Map interface which stores lazy-computed value and so doesn't break map contract:

Map<Key, Graph> map = new HashMap<>();
map.computeIfAbsent(aKey, key -> createExpensiveGraph(key));

Origin: http://blog.javabien.net/2014/02/20/loadingcache-in-java-8-without-guava/

Disclamer: This answer doesn't match exactly what OP asked but may be handy in some cases matching question's title when keys number is limited and caching of different values would be profitable. It shouldn't be used in opposite case with plenty of keys and same default value as this would needlessly waste memory.

        set @nextPos = @pos
        set @pos = charindex(@delimiter, @string)
    end
    return
end

HashMap with multiple values under the same key

Finding the max value of an attribute in an array of objects

Find the object whose property "Y" has the greatest value in an array of objects

One way would be to use Array reduce..

const max = data.reduce(function(prev, current) {
    return (prev.y > current.y) ? prev : current
}) //returns object

https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/Array/Reduce http://caniuse.com/#search=reduce (IE9 and above)

If you don't need to support IE (only Edge), or can use a pre-compiler such as Babel you could use the more terse syntax.

const max = data.reduce((prev, current) => (prev.y > current.y) ? prev : current)

Could not obtain information about Windows NT group user

We encountered similar errors in a testing environment on a virtual machine. If the machine name changes due to VM cloning from a template, you can get this error.

If the computer name changed from OLD to NEW.

A job uses this stored procedure:

msdb.dbo.sp_sqlagent_has_server_access @login_name = 'OLD\Administrator'

Which uses this one:

EXECUTE master.dbo.xp_logininfo 'OLD\Administrator'

Which gives this SQL error 15404

select text from sys.messages where message_id = 15404;
Could not obtain information about Windows NT group/user '%ls', error code %#lx.

Which I guess is correct, under the circumstances. We added a script to the VM cloning/deployment process that re-creates the SQL login.

To do descending, just reverse the value of compareTo() coming out. You can use a single Comparator class that takes in a flag/enum in the constructor that identifies the sort order

public int compare(MyObject lhs, MyObject rhs) {

    if(SortDirection.Ascending == m_sortDirection) {
        return lhs.MyDateTime.compareTo(rhs.MyDateTime);
    }

    return rhs.MyDateTime.compareTo(lhs.MyDateTime);
}

You need to call Collections.sort() to actually sort the list.

As a side note, I'm not sure why you're defining your map inside your for loop. I'm not exactly sure what your code is trying to do, but I assume you want to populate the indexed values from your for loop in to the map.

Getting Integer value from a String using javascript/jquery

Is this logically possible??.. I guess the approach that you must take is this way :

Str1 ="test123.00"
Str2 ="yes50.00"

This will be impossible to tackle unless you have delimiter in between test and 123.00

eg: Str1 = "test-123.00" 

Then you can split this way

Str2 = Str1.split("-"); 

This will return you an array of words split with "-"

Then you can do parseFloat(Str2[1]) to get the floating value i.e 123.00

How to restart Activity in Android

In conjunction with strange SurfaceView lifecycle behaviour with the Camera. I have found that recreate() does not behave well with the lifecycle of SurfaceViews. surfaceDestroyed isn't ever called during the recreation cycle. It is called after onResume (strange), at which point my SurfaceView is destroyed.

The original way of recreating an activity works fine.

Intent intent = getIntent();
finish();
startActivity(intent);

I can't figure out exactly why this is, but it is just an observation that can hopefully guide others in the future because it fixed my problems i was having with SurfaceViews

How to know Hive and Hadoop versions from command prompt?

From your SSH connection to edge node, you can simply type

hive --version

Hive 1.2.1000.x.x.x.x-xx

This returns the Hive version for your distribution of Hadoop. Another approach is if you enter into beeline, you can find the version straight away.
