What is the maximum size of a web browser's cookie's key?

The 4K limit you read about is for the entire cookie, including name, value, expiry date etc. If you want to support most browsers, I suggest keeping the name under 4000 bytes, and the overall cookie size under 4093 bytes.

One thing to be careful of: if the name is too big you cannot delete the cookie (at least in JavaScript). A cookie is deleted by updating it and setting it to expire. If the name is too big, say 4090 bytes, I found that I could not set an expiry date. I only looked into this out of interest, not that I plan to have a name that big.

To read more about it, here are the "Browser Cookie Limits" for common browsers.

While on the subject, if you want to support most browsers, then do not exceed 50 cookies per domain, and 4093 bytes per domain. That is, the size of all cookies should not exceed 4093 bytes.

This means you can have 1 cookie of 4093 bytes, or 2 cookies of 2045 bytes, etc.

I used to say 4095 bytes due to IE7, however now Mobile Safari comes in with 4096 bytes with a 3 byte overhead per cookie, so 4093 bytes max.

SQL Inner join 2 tables with multiple column conditions and update

You need to do

Update table_xpto
set column_xpto = x.xpto_New
    ,column2 = x.column2New
from table_xpto xpto
   inner join table_xptoNew xptoNew ON xpto.bla = xptoNew.Bla
where <clause where>

If you need a better answer, you can give us more information :)

How do I format a date as ISO 8601 in moment.js?

If you just want the date portion (e.g. 2017-06-27), and you want it to work regardless of time zone and also in Arabic, here is code I wrote:

function isoDate(date) {
    if (!date) {
        return null
    }
    date = moment(date).toDate()

    // don't call toISOString because it takes the time zone into
    // account which we don't want.  Also don't call .format() because it
    // returns Arabic instead of English

    var month = 1 + date.getMonth()
    if (month < 10) {
        month = '0' + month
    }
    var day = date.getDate()
    if (day < 10) {
        day = '0' + day
    }
    return date.getFullYear() + '-' + month + '-' + day
}

Clear data in MySQL table with PHP?

TRUNCATE TABLE tablename

DELETE FROM tablename

The first one is usually the better choice, as DELETE FROM is slow on InnoDB.

Actually, wasn't this already answered in your other question?

How to get the selected value from RadioButtonList?

Technically speaking the answer is correct, but there is a potential problem remaining. string test = rb.SelectedValue is an object and while this implicit cast works. It may not work correction if you were sending it to another method (and granted this may depend on the version of framework, I am unsure) it may not recognize the value.

string test = rb.SelectedValue;  //May work fine
SomeMethod(rb.SelectedValue);

where SomeMethod is expecting a string may not.

Sadly the rb.SelectedValue.ToString(); can save a few unexpected issues.

std::vector versus std::array in C++

A vector is a container class while an array is an allocated memory.

How to dynamically change header based on AngularJS partial view?

Simple and dirty way using $rootScope:

<html ng-app="project">
<head>
<title ng-bind="title">Placeholder title</title>

In your controllers, when you have the data necessary to create the title, do:

$rootScope.title = 'Page X'

Interface or an Abstract Class: which one to use?

Use an interface when you want to force developers working in your system (yourself included) to implement a set number of methods on the classes they'll be building.

Use an abstract class when you want to force developers working in your system (yourself included) to implement a set numbers of methods and you want to provide some base methods that will help them develop their child classes.

Another thing to keep in mind is client classes can only extend one abstract class, whereas they can implement multiple interfaces. So, if you're defining your behavior contracts in abstract classes, that means each child class may only conform to a single contract. Sometimes this a good thing, when you want to force your user-programmers along a particular path. Other times it would be bad. Imagine if PHP's Countable and Iterator interfaces were abstract classes instead of interfaces.

One approach that's common when you're uncertain which way to go (as mentioned by cletus below) is to create an interface, and then have your abstract class implement that interface.

The entitlements specified...profile. (0xE8008016). Error iOS 4.2

If you are trying to activate iCloud syncing, you will need to enable iCloud for the AppID that is used to create the development provisioning profile (which Xcode does automatically). You'll also need to enable this for distribution profiles as well.

The tricky part is that when you refresh profiles in Xcode, this does not trigger a renewal of the profiles; they are simply re-downloaded. So in your iOS Provisioning Portal under Provisioning/Development, you'll need to check the profile that is labeled (Managed by Xcode) and delete it (Remove Selected button). Do this for ALL profiles, development & distribution, that you need to regenerate.

Now, in Xcode in the Organizer, delete provisioning profiles that you are about to replace.

Now to get new ones. If you develop for more than one team and only want to refresh a particular one, select the appropriate Team in the left pane under TEAMS, otherwise select Provisioning Profiles under LIBRARY, then select Refresh.

Finally, remove any old provisioning profiles on your device that could conflict with the new ones since profiles are never deleted automatically; newer profiles are simply added to the list.

Xcode 9 Swift Language Version (SWIFT_VERSION)

I just got this after creating a new Objective-C project in Xcode 10, after I added a Core Data model file to the project.

I found two ways to fix this:

The Easy Way: Open the Core Data model's File Inspector (??-1) and change the language from Swift to Objective-C

Longer and more dangerous method

The model contains a "contents" file with this line:

<model type="com.apple.IDECoreDataModeler.DataModel" documentVersion="1.0" lastSavedToolsVersion="14460.32" systemVersion="17G5019" minimumToolsVersion="Automatic" sourceLanguage="Swift" userDefinedModelVersionIdentifier="">

In there is a sourceLanguage="Swift" entry. Change it to sourceLanguage="Objective-C" and the error goes away.

To find the "contents" file, right click on the .xcdatamodeld in Xcode and do "Show in Finder". Right-click on the actual (Finder) file and do "Show Package Contents"

Also: Changing the model's language will stop Xcode from generating managed object subclass files in Swift.

Android camera intent

try this code

Intent photo= new Intent("android.media.action.IMAGE_CAPTURE");
                    startActivityForResult(photo, CAMERA_PIC_REQUEST);

Internet Explorer cache location

Are you looking for a Windows API?

Just use SHGetFolderPath function with CSIDL_INTERNET_CACHE flag or SHGetKnownFolderPath with FOLDERID_InternetCache flag to get the exact location. This way you don't have to worry about the OS. The former function works in Windows XP. The latter one works in Windows Vista+.

Eclipse: Enable autocomplete / content assist

For me, it helped after I changed the theme to 'mac' since I am running on a MacOSX.

Get DateTime.Now with milliseconds precision

public long millis() {
  return (long.MaxValue + DateTime.Now.ToBinary()) / 10000;
}

If you want microseconds, just change 10000 to 10, and if you want the 10th of micro, delete / 10000.

How to add and get Header values in WebApi

For WEB API 2.0:

I had to use Request.Content.Headers instead of Request.Headers

and then i declared an extestion as below

  /// <summary>
    /// Returns an individual HTTP Header value
    /// </summary>
    /// <param name="headers"></param>
    /// <param name="key"></param>
    /// <returns></returns>
    public static string GetHeader(this HttpContentHeaders headers, string key, string defaultValue)
    {
        IEnumerable<string> keys = null;
        if (!headers.TryGetValues(key, out keys))
            return defaultValue;

        return keys.First();
    }

And then i invoked it by this way.

  var headerValue = Request.Content.Headers.GetHeader("custom-header-key", "default-value");

I hope it might be helpful

How to get a resource id with a known resource name?

It will be something like:

R.drawable.resourcename

Make sure you don't have the Android.R namespace imported as it can confuse Eclipse (if that's what you're using).

If that doesn't work, you can always use a context's getResources method ...

Drawable resImg = this.context.getResources().getDrawable(R.drawable.resource);

Where this.context is intialised as an Activity, Service or any other Context subclass.

Update:

If it's the name you want, the Resources class (returned by getResources()) has a getResourceName(int) method, and a getResourceTypeName(int)?

Update 2:

The Resources class has this method:

public int getIdentifier (String name, String defType, String defPackage)

Which returns the integer of the specified resource name, type & package.

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: View not attached to window manager

I had the same problem, you can solve it by:

@Override
protected void onPostExecute(MyResult result) {
    try {
        if ((this.mDialog != null) && this.mDialog.isShowing()) {
            this.mDialog.dismiss();
        }
    } catch (final IllegalArgumentException e) {
        // Handle or log or ignore
    } catch (final Exception e) {
        // Handle or log or ignore
    } finally {
        this.mDialog = null;
    }  
}

How to solve "The specified service has been marked for deletion" error

Most probably deleting service fails because

protected override void OnStop()

throw error when stopping a service. wrapping things inside a try catch will prevent mark for deletion error

protected override void OnStop()
{
            try
            {
                //things to do
            }
            catch (Exception)
            {
            }

}

MySQL dump by query

You could use --where option on mysqldump to produce an output that you are waiting for:

mysqldump -u root -p test t1 --where="1=1 limit 100" > arquivo.sql

At most 100 rows from test.t1 will be dumped from database table.

jQuery and AJAX response header

If this is a CORS request, you may see all headers in debug tools (such as Chrome->Inspect Element->Network), but the xHR object will only retrieve the header (via xhr.getResponseHeader('Header')) if such a header is a simple response header:

Content-Type
Last-modified
Content-Language
Cache-Control
Expires
Pragma

If it is not in this set, it must be present in the Access-Control-Expose-Headers header returned by the server.

About the case in question, if it is a CORS request, one will only be able to retrieve the Location header through the XMLHttpRequest object if, and only if, the header below is also present:

Access-Control-Expose-Headers: Location

If its not a CORS request, XMLHttpRequest will have no problem retrieving it.

Is there a simple way to remove unused dependencies from a maven pom.xml?

As others have said, you can use the dependency:analyze goal to find which dependencies are used and declared, used and undeclared, or unused and declared. You may also find dependency:analyze-dep-mgt useful to look for mismatches in your dependencyManagement section.

You can simply remove unwanted direct dependencies from your POM, but if they are introduced by third-party jars, you can use the <exclusions> tags in a dependency to exclude the third-party jars (see the section titled Dependency Exclusions for details and some discussion). Here is an example excluding commons-logging from the Spring dependency:

<dependency>
  <groupId>org.springframework</groupId>
  <artifactId>spring</artifactId>
  <version>2.5.5</version>
  <exclusions>
    <exclusion>
      <groupId>commons-logging</groupId>
      <artifactId>commons-logging</artifactId>
    </exclusion>
  </exclusions> 
</dependency>

MS Access - execute a saved query by name in VBA

Thre are 2 ways to run Action Query in MS Access VBA:

You can use DoCmd.OpenQuery statement. This allows you to control these warnings:

BUT! Keep in mind that DoCmd.SetWarnings will remain set even after the function completes. This means that you need to make sure that you leave it in a condition that suits your needs

Function RunActionQuery(QueryName As String)
    On Error GoTo Hell              'Set Error Hanlder
    DoCmd.SetWarnings True          'Turn On Warnings
    DoCmd.OpenQuery QueryName       'Execute Action Query
    DoCmd.SetWarnings False         'Turn On Warnings
    Exit Function
Hell:
    If Err.Number = 2501 Then       'If Query Was Canceled
        MsgBox Err.Description, vbInformation
    Else                            'Everything else
        MsgBox Err.Description, vbCritical
    End If
End Function

You can use CurrentDb.Execute method. This alows you to keep Action Query failures under control. The SetWarnings flag does not affect it. Query is executed always without warnings.

Function RunActionQuery()
    'To Catch the Query Error use dbFailOnError option
    On Error GoTo Hell
    CurrentDb.Execute "Query1", dbFailOnError
    Exit Function
Hell:
    Debug.Print Err.Description
End Function

It is worth noting that the dbFailOnError option responds only to data processing failures. If the Query contains an error (such as a typo), then a runtime error is generated, even if this option is not specified

In addition, you can use DoCmd.Hourglass True and DoCmd.Hourglass False to control the mouse pointer if your Query takes longer

Encoding Javascript Object to Json string

You can use JSON.stringify like:

JSON.stringify(new_tweets);

Reloading module giving NameError: name 'reload' is not defined

I recommend using the following snippet as it works in all python versions (requires six):

from six.moves import reload_module

How to add DOM element script to head section?

you could do:

var scriptTag = document.createElement("script");
scriptTag.type = "text/javascript";
scriptTag.src = "script_source_here";
(document.getElementsByTagName("head")[0] || document.documentElement ).appendChild(scriptTag);

Add Expires headers

The easiest way to add these headers is a .htaccess file that adds some configuration to your server. If the assets are hosted on a server that you don't control, there's nothing you can do about it.

Note that some hosting providers will not let you use .htaccess files, so check their terms if it doesn't seem to work.

The HTML5Boilerplate project has an excellent .htaccess file that covers the necessary settings. See the relevant part of the file at their Github repository

These are the important bits

# ----------------------------------------------------------------------
# Expires headers (for better cache control)
# ----------------------------------------------------------------------

# These are pretty far-future expires headers.
# They assume you control versioning with filename-based cache busting
# Additionally, consider that outdated proxies may miscache
# www.stevesouders.com/blog/2008/08/23/revving-filenames-dont-use-querystring/

# If you don't use filenames to version, lower the CSS and JS to something like
# "access plus 1 week".

<IfModule mod_expires.c>
  ExpiresActive on

# Your document html
  ExpiresByType text/html "access plus 0 seconds"

# Media: images, video, audio
  ExpiresByType audio/ogg "access plus 1 month"
  ExpiresByType image/gif "access plus 1 month"
  ExpiresByType image/jpeg "access plus 1 month"
  ExpiresByType image/png "access plus 1 month"
  ExpiresByType video/mp4 "access plus 1 month"
  ExpiresByType video/ogg "access plus 1 month"
  ExpiresByType video/webm "access plus 1 month"

# CSS and JavaScript
  ExpiresByType application/javascript "access plus 1 year"
  ExpiresByType text/css "access plus 1 year"
</IfModule>

They have documented what that file does, the most important bit is that you need to rename your CSS and Javascript files whenever they change, because your visitor's browsers will not check them again for a year, once they are cached.

Why does overflow:hidden not work in a <td>?

I'm not familiar with the specific issue, but you could stick a div, etc inside the td and set overflow on that.

Difference between shared objects (.so), static libraries (.a), and DLL's (.so)?

A static library(.a) is a library that can be linked directly into the final executable produced by the linker,it is contained in it and there is no need to have the library into the system where the executable will be deployed.

A shared library(.so) is a library that is linked but not embedded in the final executable, so will be loaded when the executable is launched and need to be present in the system where the executable is deployed.

A dynamic link library on windows(.dll) is like a shared library(.so) on linux but there are some differences between the two implementations that are related to the OS (Windows vs Linux) :

A DLL can define two kinds of functions: exported and internal. The exported functions are intended to be called by other modules, as well as from within the DLL where they are defined. Internal functions are typically intended to be called only from within the DLL where they are defined.

An SO library on Linux doesn't need special export statement to indicate exportable symbols, since all symbols are available to an interrogating process.

ssh: connect to host github.com port 22: Connection timed out

The answer above gave me the information needed to resolve this issue. In my case the url was incorrectly starting with ssh:///

To check the url in your git config is correct, open the git config file :-

git config --local -e

Check the url entry. It should NOT have ssh:/// at the start.

Incorrect entry:

 url = ssh:///[email protected]:username/repo.git

Correct entry:

 url = [email protected]:username/repo.git

If your url is correct, then the next step would be to try the answer above that suggests changing protocol to http.

How do I link a JavaScript file to a HTML file?

You can add script tags in your HTML document, ideally inside the which points to your javascript files. Order of the script tags are important. Load the jQuery before your script files if you want to use jQuery from your script.

<script type="text/javascript" src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.7.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="relative/path/to/your/javascript.js"></script>

Then in your javascript file you can refer to jQuery either using $ sign or jQuery. Example:

jQuery.each(arr, function(i) { console.log(i); });

INSTALL_FAILED_NO_MATCHING_ABIS when install apk

In the visual studio community edition 2017, sometimes the selection of Supported ABIs from Android Options wont work.

In that case please verify that the .csproj has the following line and no duplicate lines in the same build configurations.

 <AndroidSupportedAbis>armeabi;armeabi-v7a;x86;x86_64;arm64-v8a</AndroidSupportedAbis>

In order to edit,

Unload your Android Project
Right click and select Edit Project ...
Make sure you have the above line only one time in a build configuration

How to negate the whole regex?

Use negative lookaround: (?!pattern)

Positive lookarounds can be used to assert that a pattern matches. Negative lookarounds is the opposite: it's used to assert that a pattern DOES NOT match. Some flavor supports assertions; some puts limitations on lookbehind, etc.

Links to regular-expressions.info

These are attempts to come up with regex solutions to toy problems as exercises; they should be educational if you're trying to learn the various ways you can use lookarounds (nesting them, using them to capture, etc):

_x000D_

Day and half later after poking and prodding and not happy with the hacky solutions offered here, I discovered that the issue was caused by the fact it seemed to keep the element in memory while drawing a new one. The solution was to make the ID of the linearGradient on the SVG unique, even though it was only ever used once per page.

This can be achieved many different ways, but for our angular app we used lodash uniqueId function to add a variable to the scope:

Angular Directive (JS):

scope.indicatorColourPatternId = _.uniqueId('IndicatorColourPattern');

HTML Updates:

Line 5: <linearGradient ng-attr-id="{{indicatorColourPatternId}}" x1="0" x2="0" y1="0" y2="1">

Line 11: <rect x="0" y="0" rx="5" ry="5" width="100%" height="100%" ng-attr-fill="url(#{{indicatorColourPatternId}})"/>

I hope this answer saves someone else a days worth of face-smashing their keyboard.

ES6 export all values from object

Does not seem so. Quote from ECMAScript 6 modules: the final syntax:

You may be wondering – why do we need named exports if we could simply default-export objects (like CommonJS)? The answer is that you can’t enforce a static structure via objects and lose all of the associated advantages (described in the next section).

INSERT VALUES WHERE NOT EXISTS

There is a great solution for this problem ,You can use the Merge Keyword of Sql

Merge MyTargetTable hba
USING (SELECT Id = 8, Name = 'Product Listing Message') temp 
ON temp.Id = hba.Id
WHEN NOT matched THEN 
INSERT (Id, Name) VALUES (temp.Id, temp.Name);

You can check this before following, below is the sample

IF OBJECT_ID ('dbo.TargetTable') IS NOT NULL
    DROP TABLE dbo.TargetTable
GO

CREATE TABLE dbo.TargetTable
    (
    Id   INT NOT NULL,
    Name VARCHAR (255) NOT NULL,
    CONSTRAINT PK_TargetTable PRIMARY KEY (Id)
    )
GO



INSERT INTO dbo.TargetTable (Name)
VALUES ('Unknown')
GO

INSERT INTO dbo.TargetTable (Name)
VALUES ('Mapping')
GO

INSERT INTO dbo.TargetTable (Name)
VALUES ('Update')
GO

INSERT INTO dbo.TargetTable (Name)
VALUES ('Message')
GO

INSERT INTO dbo.TargetTable (Name)
VALUES ('Switch')
GO

INSERT INTO dbo.TargetTable (Name)
VALUES ('Unmatched')
GO

INSERT INTO dbo.TargetTable (Name)
VALUES ('ProductMessage')
GO


Merge MyTargetTable hba
USING (SELECT Id = 8, Name = 'Listing Message') temp 
ON temp.Id = hba.Id
WHEN NOT matched THEN 
INSERT (Id, Name) VALUES (temp.Id, temp.Name);

JavaScript: Get image dimensions

Get image size with jQuery

function getMeta(url){
    $("<img/>",{
        load : function(){
            alert(this.width+' '+this.height);
        },
        src  : url
    });
}

Get image size with JavaScript

function getMeta(url){   
    var img = new Image();
    img.onload = function(){
        alert( this.width+' '+ this.height );
    };
    img.src = url;
}

Get image size with JavaScript (modern browsers, IE9+ )

function getMeta(url){   
    var img = new Image();
    img.addEventListener("load", function(){
        alert( this.naturalWidth +' '+ this.naturalHeight );
    });
    img.src = url;
}

Use the above simply as: getMeta( "http://example.com/img.jpg" );

How to handle the click event in Listview in android?

According to my test,

implements OnItemClickListener -> works.
setOnItemClickListener -> works.
ListView is clickable by default (API 19)

The important thing is, "click" only works to TextView (if you choose simple_list_item_1.xml as item). That means if you provide text data for the ListView, "click" works when you click on text area. Click on empty area does not trigger "click event".

How to extract the decision rules from scikit-learn decision-tree?

Just use the function from sklearn.tree like this

from sklearn.tree import export_graphviz
    export_graphviz(tree,
                out_file = "tree.dot",
                feature_names = tree.columns) //or just ["petal length", "petal width"]

And then look in your project folder for the file tree.dot, copy the ALL the content and paste it here http://www.webgraphviz.com/ and generate your graph :)

How to split a dataframe string column into two columns?

TL;DR version:

For the simple case of:

I have a text column with a delimiter and I want two columns

The simplest solution is:

df[['A', 'B']] = df['AB'].str.split(' ', 1, expand=True)

You must use expand=True if your strings have a non-uniform number of splits and you want None to replace the missing values.

Notice how, in either case, the .tolist() method is not necessary. Neither is zip().

In detail:

Andy Hayden's solution is most excellent in demonstrating the power of the str.extract() method.

But for a simple split over a known separator (like, splitting by dashes, or splitting by whitespace), the .str.split() method is enough¹. It operates on a column (Series) of strings, and returns a column (Series) of lists:

>>> import pandas as pd
>>> df = pd.DataFrame({'AB': ['A1-B1', 'A2-B2']})
>>> df

      AB
0  A1-B1
1  A2-B2
>>> df['AB_split'] = df['AB'].str.split('-')
>>> df

      AB  AB_split
0  A1-B1  [A1, B1]
1  A2-B2  [A2, B2]

_{1: If you're unsure what the first two parameters of .str.split() do,
I recommend the docs for the plain Python version of the method.}

But how do you go from:

a column containing two-element lists

to:

two columns, each containing the respective element of the lists?

Well, we need to take a closer look at the .str attribute of a column.

It's a magical object that is used to collect methods that treat each element in a column as a string, and then apply the respective method in each element as efficient as possible:

>>> upper_lower_df = pd.DataFrame({"U": ["A", "B", "C"]})
>>> upper_lower_df

   U
0  A
1  B
2  C
>>> upper_lower_df["L"] = upper_lower_df["U"].str.lower()
>>> upper_lower_df

   U  L
0  A  a
1  B  b
2  C  c

But it also has an "indexing" interface for getting each element of a string by its index:

>>> df['AB'].str[0]

0    A
1    A
Name: AB, dtype: object

>>> df['AB'].str[1]

0    1
1    2
Name: AB, dtype: object

Of course, this indexing interface of .str doesn't really care if each element it's indexing is actually a string, as long as it can be indexed, so:

>>> df['AB'].str.split('-', 1).str[0]

0    A1
1    A2
Name: AB, dtype: object

>>> df['AB'].str.split('-', 1).str[1]

0    B1
1    B2
Name: AB, dtype: object

Then, it's a simple matter of taking advantage of the Python tuple unpacking of iterables to do

>>> df['A'], df['B'] = df['AB'].str.split('-', 1).str
>>> df

      AB  AB_split   A   B
0  A1-B1  [A1, B1]  A1  B1
1  A2-B2  [A2, B2]  A2  B2

Of course, getting a DataFrame out of splitting a column of strings is so useful that the .str.split() method can do it for you with the expand=True parameter:

>>> df['AB'].str.split('-', 1, expand=True)

    0   1
0  A1  B1
1  A2  B2

So, another way of accomplishing what we wanted is to do:

>>> df = df[['AB']]
>>> df

      AB
0  A1-B1
1  A2-B2

>>> df.join(df['AB'].str.split('-', 1, expand=True).rename(columns={0:'A', 1:'B'}))

      AB   A   B
0  A1-B1  A1  B1
1  A2-B2  A2  B2

The expand=True version, although longer, has a distinct advantage over the tuple unpacking method. Tuple unpacking doesn't deal well with splits of different lengths:

>>> df = pd.DataFrame({'AB': ['A1-B1', 'A2-B2', 'A3-B3-C3']})
>>> df
         AB
0     A1-B1
1     A2-B2
2  A3-B3-C3
>>> df['A'], df['B'], df['C'] = df['AB'].str.split('-')
Traceback (most recent call last):
  [...]    
ValueError: Length of values does not match length of index
>>>

But expand=True handles it nicely by placing None in the columns for which there aren't enough "splits":

>>> df.join(
...     df['AB'].str.split('-', expand=True).rename(
...         columns={0:'A', 1:'B', 2:'C'}
...     )
... )
         AB   A   B     C
0     A1-B1  A1  B1  None
1     A2-B2  A2  B2  None
2  A3-B3-C3  A3  B3    C3

How To Set A JS object property name from a variable

jsonVariable = {}
for(i=1; i<3; i++) {        
   var jsonKey  = i+'name';
   jsonVariable[jsonKey] = 'name1'
}

this will be similar to

    jsonVariable = {
    1name : 'name1'
    2name : 'name1'
}

Attempt to set a non-property-list object as an NSUserDefaults

The code you posted tries to save an array of custom objects to NSUserDefaults. You can't do that. Implementing the NSCoding methods doesn't help. You can only store things like NSArray, NSDictionary, NSString, NSData, NSNumber, and NSDate in NSUserDefaults.

You need to convert the object to NSData (like you have in some of the code) and store that NSData in NSUserDefaults. You can even store an NSArray of NSData if you need to.

When you read back the array you need to unarchive the NSData to get back your BC_Person objects.

Perhaps you want this:

- (void)savePersonArrayData:(BC_Person *)personObject {
    [mutableDataArray addObject:personObject];

    NSMutableArray *archiveArray = [NSMutableArray arrayWithCapacity:mutableDataArray.count];
    for (BC_Person *personObject in mutableDataArray) { 
        NSData *personEncodedObject = [NSKeyedArchiver archivedDataWithRootObject:personObject];
        [archiveArray addObject:personEncodedObject];
    }

    NSUserDefaults *userData = [NSUserDefaults standardUserDefaults];
    [userData setObject:archiveArray forKey:@"personDataArray"];
}

How to create a directory in Java?

Just wanted to point out to everyone calling File.mkdir() or File.mkdirs() to be careful the File object is a directory and not a file. For example if you call mkdirs() for the path /dir1/dir2/file.txt, it will create a folder with the name file.txt which is probably not what you wanted. If you are creating a new file and also want to automatically create parent folders you can do something like this:

            File file = new File(filePath);
            if (file.getParentFile() != null) {
                file.getParentFile().mkdirs();
            }

Qt c++ aggregate 'std::stringstream ss' has incomplete type and cannot be defined

    std::stringstream ss;   // <-- also note namespace qualification
    ss << num;

How to run wget inside Ubuntu Docker image?

I had this problem recently where apt install wget does not find anything. As it turns out apt update was never run.

Missing `server' JVM (Java\jre7\bin\server\jvm.dll.)

To Fix The "Missing "server" JVM at C:\Program Files\Java\jre7\bin\server\jvm.dll, please install or use the JRE or JDK that contains these missing components.

Follow these steps:

Go to oracle.com and install Java JRE7 (Check if Java 6 is not installed already)

After that, go to C:/Program files/java/jre7/bin

Here, create an folder called Server

Now go into the C:/Program files/java/jre7/bin/client folder

Copy all the data in this folder into the new C:/Program files/java/jre7/bin/Server folder

What's the difference between align-content and align-items?

align-content

align-content controls the cross-axis (i.e. vertical direction if the flex-direction is row, and horizontal if the flex-direction is column) positioning of multiple lines relative to each other.

(Think lines of a paragraph being vertically spread out, stacked toward the top, stacked toward the bottom. This is under a flex-direction row paradigm).

align-items

align-items controls the cross-axis of an individual line of flex elements.

(Think how an individual line of a paragraph is aligned, if it contains some normal text and some taller text like math equations. In that case, will it be the bottom, top, or center of each type of text in a line that will be aligned?)

Does Ruby have a string.startswith("abc") built in method?

It's called String#start_with?, not String#startswith: In Ruby, the names of boolean-ish methods end with ? and the words in method names are separated with an _. Not sure where the s went, personally, I'd prefer String#starts_with? over the actual String#start_with?

Place input box at the center of div

H.264 file size for 1 hr of HD video

For a good quality x264 encoding of 1060i, done by a computer, not a mobile device, not in real time, you could use a bitrate at about 5 MBps. That means 2250 MB/hour of encoded material. Recommend you deinterlace the footage and compress as progressive.

How to trigger a phone call when clicking a link in a web page on mobile phone

Most modern devices support the tel: scheme. So use <a href="tel:555-555-5555">555-555-5555</a> and you should be good to go.

If you want to use it for an image, the <a> tag can handle the <img/> placed in it just like other normal situations with : <a href="tel:555-555-5555"><img src="path/to/phone/icon.jpg" /></a>

What is the non-jQuery equivalent of '$(document).ready()'?

According to http://youmightnotneedjquery.com/#ready a nice replacement that still works with IE8 is

_x000D_

function ready(fn) {_x000D_
  if (document.readyState != 'loading') {_x000D_
    fn();_x000D_
  } else if (document.addEventListener) {_x000D_
    document.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded', fn);_x000D_
  } else {_x000D_
    document.attachEvent('onreadystatechange', function() {_x000D_
      if (document.readyState != 'loading')_x000D_
        fn();_x000D_
    });_x000D_
  }_x000D_
}_x000D_
_x000D_
// test_x000D_
window.ready(function() {_x000D_
    alert('it works');_x000D_
});

_x000D_

improvements: Personally I would also check if the type of fn is a function. And as @elliottregan suggested remove the event listener after use.

The reason I answer this question late is because I was searching for this answer but could not find it here. And I think this is the best solution.

Select all from table with Laravel and Eloquent

There are 3 ways that one can do that.

$entireTable = TableModelName::all();

eg,

$posts = Posts::get();

put this line before the class in the controller

use Illuminate\Support\Facades\DB; // this will import the DB facade into your controller class

Now in the class

$posts = DB::table('posts')->get(); // it will get the entire table

put this line before the class in the controller

Same import the DB facade like method 2

Now in the controller

$posts = DB::select('SELECT * FROM posts');

$.ajax - dataType

(ps: the answer given by Nick Craver is incorrect)

contentType specifies the format of data being sent to the server as part of request(it can be sent as part of response too, more on that later).

dataType specifies the expected format of data to be received by the client(browser).

Both are not interchangable.

contentType is the header sent to the server, specifying the format of data(i.e the content of message body) being being to the server. This is used with POST and PUT requests. Usually when u send POST request, the message body comprises of passed in parameters like:

==============================

Sample request:

POST /search HTTP/1.1 
Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded 
<<other header>>

name=sam&age=35

==============================

The last line above "name=sam&age=35" is the message body and contentType specifies it as application/x-www-form-urlencoded since we are passing the form parameters in the message body. However we aren't limited to just sending the parameters, we can send json, xml,... like this(sending different types of data is especially useful with RESTful web services):

==============================

Sample request:

POST /orders HTTP/1.1
Content-Type: application/xml
<<other header>>

<order>
   <total>$199.02</total>
   <date>December 22, 2008 06:56</date>
...
</order>

==============================

So the ContentType this time is: application/xml, cause that's what we are sending. The above examples showed sample request, similarly the response send from the server can also have the Content-Type header specifying what the server is sending like this:

==============================

sample response:

HTTP/1.1 201 Created
Content-Type: application/xml
<<other headers>>

<order id="233">
   <link rel="self" href="http://example.com/orders/133"/>
   <total>$199.02</total>
   <date>December 22, 2008 06:56</date>
...
</order>

==============================

dataType specifies the format of response to expect. Its related to Accept header. JQuery will try to infer it based on the Content-Type of the response.

==============================

Sample request:

GET /someFolder/index.html HTTP/1.1
Host: mysite.org
Accept: application/xml
<<other headers>>

==============================

Above request is expecting XML from the server.

Regarding your question,

contentType: "application/json; charset=utf-8",
dataType: "json",

Here you are sending json data using UTF8 character set, and you expect back json data from the server. As per the JQuery docs for dataType,

The json type parses the fetched data file as a JavaScript object and returns the constructed object as the result data.

So what you get in success handler is proper javascript object(JQuery converts the json object for you)

whereas

contentType: "application/json",
dataType: "text",

Here you are sending json data, since you haven't mentioned the encoding, as per the JQuery docs,

If no charset is specified, data will be transmitted to the server using the server's default charset; you must decode this appropriately on the server side.

and since dataType is specified as text, what you get in success handler is plain text, as per the docs for dataType,

The text and xml types return the data with no processing. The data is simply passed on to the success handler

How to hide console window in python?

Some additional info. for situations that'll need the win32gui solution posted by Mohsen Haddadi earlier in this thread:

As of python 361, win32gui & win32con are not part of the python std library. To use them, pywin32 package will need to be installed; now possible via pip.

More background info on pywin32 package is at: How to use the win32gui module with Python?.

Also, to apply discretion while closing a window so as to not inadvertently close any window in the foreground, the resolution could be extended along the lines of the following:

try     :

    import win32gui, win32con;

    frgrnd_wndw = win32gui.GetForegroundWindow();
    wndw_title  = win32gui.GetWindowText(frgrnd_wndw);
    if wndw_title.endswith("python.exe"):
        win32gui.ShowWindow(frgrnd_wndw, win32con.SW_HIDE);
    #endif
except  :
    pass

CSS Animation and Display None

When animating height (from 0 to auto), using transform: scaleY(0); is another useful approach to hide the element, instead of display: none;:

.section {
  overflow: hidden;
  transition: transform 0.3s ease-out;
  height: auto;
  transform: scaleY(1);
  transform-origin: top;

  &.hidden {
    transform: scaleY(0);
  }
}

Parse json string to find and element (key / value)

Use a JSON parser, like JSON.NET

string json = "{ \"Atlantic/Canary\": \"GMT Standard Time\", \"Europe/Lisbon\": \"GMT Standard Time\", \"Antarctica/Mawson\": \"West Asia Standard Time\", \"Etc/GMT+3\": \"SA Eastern Standard Time\", \"Etc/GMT+2\": \"UTC-02\", \"Etc/GMT+1\": \"Cape Verde Standard Time\", \"Etc/GMT+7\": \"US Mountain Standard Time\", \"Etc/GMT+6\": \"Central America Standard Time\", \"Etc/GMT+5\": \"SA Pacific Standard Time\", \"Etc/GMT+4\": \"SA Western Standard Time\", \"Pacific/Wallis\": \"UTC+12\", \"Europe/Skopje\": \"Central European Standard Time\", \"America/Coral_Harbour\": \"SA Pacific Standard Time\", \"Asia/Dhaka\": \"Bangladesh Standard Time\", \"America/St_Lucia\": \"SA Western Standard Time\", \"Asia/Kashgar\": \"China Standard Time\", \"America/Phoenix\": \"US Mountain Standard Time\", \"Asia/Kuwait\": \"Arab Standard Time\" }";

What does the C++ standard state the size of int, long type to be?

I notice that all the other answers here have focused almost exclusively on integral types, while the questioner also asked about floating-points.

I don't think the C++ standard requires it, but compilers for the most common platforms these days generally follow the IEEE754 standard for their floating-point numbers. This standard specifies four types of binary floating-point (as well as some BCD formats, which I've never seen support for in C++ compilers):

Half precision (binary16) - 11-bit significand, exponent range -14 to 15
Single precision (binary32) - 24-bit significand, exponent range -126 to 127
Double precision (binary64) - 53-bit significand, exponent range -1022 to 1023
Quadruple precision (binary128) - 113-bit significand, exponent range -16382 to 16383

How does this map onto C++ types, then? Generally the float uses single precision; thus, sizeof(float) = 4. Then double uses double precision (I believe that's the source of the name double), and long double may be either double or quadruple precision (it's quadruple on my system, but on 32-bit systems it may be double). I don't know of any compilers that offer half precision floating-points.

In summary, this is the usual:

sizeof(float) = 4
sizeof(double) = 8
sizeof(long double) = 8 or 16

How to programmatically set the layout_align_parent_right attribute of a Button in Relative Layout?

You can access any LayoutParams from code using View.getLayoutParams. You just have to be very aware of what LayoutParams your accessing. This is normally achieved by checking the containing ViewGroup if it has a LayoutParams inner child then that's the one you should use. In your case it's RelativeLayout.LayoutParams. You'll be using RelativeLayout.LayoutParams#addRule(int verb) and RelativeLayout.LayoutParams#addRule(int verb, int anchor)

You can get to it via code:

RelativeLayout.LayoutParams params = (RelativeLayout.LayoutParams)button.getLayoutParams();
params.addRule(RelativeLayout.ALIGN_PARENT_RIGHT);
params.addRule(RelativeLayout.LEFT_OF, R.id.id_to_be_left_of);

button.setLayoutParams(params); //causes layout update

How can I create directory tree in C++/Linux?

The others got you the right answer, but I thought I'd demonstrate another neat thing you can do:

mkdir -p /tmp/a/{b,c}/d

Will create the following paths:

/tmp/a/b/d
/tmp/a/c/d

The braces allow you to create multiple directories at once on the same level of the hierarchy, whereas the -p option means "create parent directories as needed".

Difference between using gradlew and gradle

The difference lies in the fact that ./gradlew indicates you are using a gradle wrapper. The wrapper is generally part of a project and it facilitates installation of gradle. If you were using gradle without the wrapper you would have to manually install it - for example, on a mac brew install gradle and then invoke gradle using the gradle command. In both cases you are using gradle, but the former is more convenient and ensures version consistency across different machines.

Each Wrapper is tied to a specific version of Gradle, so when you first run one of the commands above for a given Gradle version, it will download the corresponding Gradle distribution and use it to execute the build.

Not only does this mean that you don’t have to manually install Gradle yourself, but you are also sure to use the version of Gradle that the build is designed for. This makes your historical builds more reliable

Also, Udacity has a neat, high level video explaining the concept of the gradle wrapper - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1aA949H-shk

Add vertical scroll bar to panel

Below is the code that implements custom vertical scrollbar. The important detail here is to know when scrollbar is needed by calculating how much space is consumed by the controls that you add to the panel.

panelUserInput.SuspendLayout();
panelUserInput.Controls.Clear();
panelUserInput.AutoScroll = false;
panelUserInput.VerticalScroll.Visible = false;

// here you'd be adding controls

int x = 20, y = 20, height = 0;
for (int inx = 0; inx < numControls; inx++ )
{
    // this example uses textbox control
    TextBox txt = new TextBox();
    txt.Location = new System.Drawing.Point(x, y);
    // add whatever details you need for this control
    // before adding it to the panel
    panelUserInput.Controls.Add(txt);
    height = y + txt.Height;
    y += 25;
}
if (height > panelUserInput.Height)
{
    VScrollBar bar = new VScrollBar();
    bar.Dock = DockStyle.Right;
    bar.Scroll += (sender, e) => { panelUserInput.VerticalScroll.Value =  bar.Value; };
    bar.Top = 0;
    bar.Left = panelUserInput.Width - bar.Width;
    bar.Height = panelUserInput.Height;
    bar.Visible = true;
    panelUserInput.Controls.Add(bar);
}
panelUserInput.ResumeLayout();

// then update the form
this.PerformLayout();

how to use python2.7 pip instead of default pip

There should be a binary called "pip2.7" installed at some location included within your $PATH variable.

You can find that out by typing

which pip2.7

This should print something like '/usr/local/bin/pip2.7' to your stdout. If it does not print anything like this, it is not installed. In that case, install it by running

$ wget https://bootstrap.pypa.io/get-pip.py
$ sudo python2.7 get-pip.py

Now, you should be all set, and

which pip2.7

should return the correct output.

user authentication libraries for node.js?

I was basically looking for the same thing. Specifically, I wanted the following:

To use express.js, which wraps Connect's middleware capability
"Form based" authentication
Granular control over which routes are authenticated
A database back-end for users/passwords
Use sessions

What I ended up doing was creating my own middleware function check_auth that I pass as an argument to each route I want authenticated. check_auth merely checks the session and if the user is not logged in, then redirects them to the login page, like so:

function check_auth(req, res, next) {

  //  if the user isn't logged in, redirect them to a login page
  if(!req.session.login) {
    res.redirect("/login");
    return; // the buck stops here... we do not call next(), because
            // we don't want to proceed; instead we want to show a login page
  }

  //  the user is logged in, so call next()
  next();
}

Then for each route, I ensure this function is passed as middleware. For example:

app.get('/tasks', check_auth, function(req, res) {
    // snip
});

Finally, we need to actually handle the login process. This is straightforward:

app.get('/login', function(req, res) {
  res.render("login", {layout:false});
});

app.post('/login', function(req, res) {

  // here, I'm using mongoose.js to search for the user in mongodb
  var user_query = UserModel.findOne({email:req.body.email}, function(err, user){
    if(err) {
      res.render("login", {layout:false, locals:{ error:err } });
      return;
    }

    if(!user || user.password != req.body.password) {
      res.render("login",
        {layout:false,
          locals:{ error:"Invalid login!", email:req.body.email }
        }
      );
    } else {
      // successful login; store the session info
      req.session.login = req.body.email;
      res.redirect("/");
    }
  });
});

At any rate, this approach was mostly designed to be flexible and simple. I'm sure there are numerous ways to improve it. If you have any, I'd very much like your feedback.

EDIT: This is a simplified example. In a production system, you'd never want to store & compare passwords in plain text. As a commenter points out, there are libs that can help manage password security.

mysql datetime comparison

I know its pretty old but I just encounter the problem and there is what I saw in the SQL doc :

[For best results when using BETWEEN with date or time values,] use CAST() to explicitly convert the values to the desired data type. Examples: If you compare a DATETIME to two DATE values, convert the DATE values to DATETIME values. If you use a string constant such as '2001-1-1' in a comparison to a DATE, cast the string to a DATE.

I assume it's better to use STR_TO_DATE since they took the time to make a function just for that and also the fact that i found this in the BETWEEN doc...

What is the Sign Off feature in Git for?

Sign-off is a line at the end of the commit message which certifies who is the author of the commit. Its main purpose is to improve tracking of who did what, especially with patches.

Example commit:

Add tests for the payment processor.

Signed-off-by: Humpty Dumpty <[email protected]>

It should contain the user real name if used for an open-source project.

If branch maintainer need to slightly modify patches in order to merge them, he could ask the submitter to rediff, but it would be counter-productive. He can adjust the code and put his sign-off at the end so the original author still gets credit for the patch.

Add tests for the payment processor.

What is the difference between bottom-up and top-down?

rev4: A very eloquent comment by user Sammaron has noted that, perhaps, this answer previously confused top-down and bottom-up. While originally this answer (rev3) and other answers said that "bottom-up is memoization" ("assume the subproblems"), it may be the inverse (that is, "top-down" may be "assume the subproblems" and "bottom-up" may be "compose the subproblems"). Previously, I have read on memoization being a different kind of dynamic programming as opposed to a subtype of dynamic programming. I was quoting that viewpoint despite not subscribing to it. I have rewritten this answer to be agnostic of the terminology until proper references can be found in the literature. I have also converted this answer to a community wiki. Please prefer academic sources. List of references: {Web: 1,2} {Literature: 5}

Recap

Dynamic programming is all about ordering your computations in a way that avoids recalculating duplicate work. You have a main problem (the root of your tree of subproblems), and subproblems (subtrees). The subproblems typically repeat and overlap.

For example, consider your favorite example of Fibonnaci. This is the full tree of subproblems, if we did a naive recursive call:

TOP of the tree
fib(4)
 fib(3)...................... + fib(2)
  fib(2)......... + fib(1)       fib(1)........... + fib(0)
   fib(1) + fib(0)   fib(1)       fib(1)              fib(0)
    fib(1)   fib(0)
BOTTOM of the tree

(In some other rare problems, this tree could be infinite in some branches, representing non-termination, and thus the bottom of the tree may be infinitely large. Furthermore, in some problems you might not know what the full tree looks like ahead of time. Thus, you might need a strategy/algorithm to decide which subproblems to reveal.)

Memoization, Tabulation

There are at least two main techniques of dynamic programming which are not mutually exclusive:

Memoization - This is a laissez-faire approach: You assume that you have already computed all subproblems and that you have no idea what the optimal evaluation order is. Typically, you would perform a recursive call (or some iterative equivalent) from the root, and either hope you will get close to the optimal evaluation order, or obtain a proof that you will help you arrive at the optimal evaluation order. You would ensure that the recursive call never recomputes a subproblem because you cache the results, and thus duplicate sub-trees are not recomputed.
- example: If you are calculating the Fibonacci sequence fib(100), you would just call this, and it would call fib(100)=fib(99)+fib(98), which would call fib(99)=fib(98)+fib(97), ...etc..., which would call fib(2)=fib(1)+fib(0)=1+0=1. Then it would finally resolve fib(3)=fib(2)+fib(1), but it doesn't need to recalculate fib(2), because we cached it.
- This starts at the top of the tree and evaluates the subproblems from the leaves/subtrees back up towards the root.
Tabulation - You can also think of dynamic programming as a "table-filling" algorithm (though usually multidimensional, this 'table' may have non-Euclidean geometry in very rare cases*). This is like memoization but more active, and involves one additional step: You must pick, ahead of time, the exact order in which you will do your computations. This should not imply that the order must be static, but that you have much more flexibility than memoization.
- example: If you are performing fibonacci, you might choose to calculate the numbers in this order: fib(2),fib(3),fib(4)... caching every value so you can compute the next ones more easily. You can also think of it as filling up a table (another form of caching).
- I personally do not hear the word 'tabulation' a lot, but it's a very decent term. Some people consider this "dynamic programming".
- Before running the algorithm, the programmer considers the whole tree, then writes an algorithm to evaluate the subproblems in a particular order towards the root, generally filling in a table.
- *footnote: Sometimes the 'table' is not a rectangular table with grid-like connectivity, per se. Rather, it may have a more complicated structure, such as a tree, or a structure specific to the problem domain (e.g. cities within flying distance on a map), or even a trellis diagram, which, while grid-like, does not have a up-down-left-right connectivity structure, etc. For example, user3290797 linked a dynamic programming example of finding the maximum independent set in a tree, which corresponds to filling in the blanks in a tree.

(At it's most general, in a "dynamic programming" paradigm, I would say the programmer considers the whole tree, then writes an algorithm that implements a strategy for evaluating subproblems which can optimize whatever properties you want (usually a combination of time-complexity and space-complexity). Your strategy must start somewhere, with some particular subproblem, and perhaps may adapt itself based on the results of those evaluations. In the general sense of "dynamic programming", you might try to cache these subproblems, and more generally, try avoid revisiting subproblems with a subtle distinction perhaps being the case of graphs in various data structures. Very often, these data structures are at their core like arrays or tables. Solutions to subproblems can be thrown away if we don't need them anymore.)

[Previously, this answer made a statement about the top-down vs bottom-up terminology; there are clearly two main approaches called Memoization and Tabulation that may be in bijection with those terms (though not entirely). The general term most people use is still "Dynamic Programming" and some people say "Memoization" to refer to that particular subtype of "Dynamic Programming." This answer declines to say which is top-down and bottom-up until the community can find proper references in academic papers. Ultimately, it is important to understand the distinction rather than the terminology.]

Pros and cons

Ease of coding

Memoization is very easy to code (you can generally* write a "memoizer" annotation or wrapper function that automatically does it for you), and should be your first line of approach. The downside of tabulation is that you have to come up with an ordering.

*(this is actually only easy if you are writing the function yourself, and/or coding in an impure/non-functional programming language... for example if someone already wrote a precompiled fib function, it necessarily makes recursive calls to itself, and you can't magically memoize the function without ensuring those recursive calls call your new memoized function (and not the original unmemoized function))

Recursiveness

Note that both top-down and bottom-up can be implemented with recursion or iterative table-filling, though it may not be natural.

Practical concerns

With memoization, if the tree is very deep (e.g. fib(10^6)), you will run out of stack space, because each delayed computation must be put on the stack, and you will have 10^6 of them.

Optimality

Either approach may not be time-optimal if the order you happen (or try to) visit subproblems is not optimal, specifically if there is more than one way to calculate a subproblem (normally caching would resolve this, but it's theoretically possible that caching might not in some exotic cases). Memoization will usually add on your time-complexity to your space-complexity (e.g. with tabulation you have more liberty to throw away calculations, like using tabulation with Fib lets you use O(1) space, but memoization with Fib uses O(N) stack space).

Advanced optimizations

If you are also doing a extremely complicated problems, you might have no choice but to do tabulation (or at least take a more active role in steering the memoization where you want it to go). Also if you are in a situation where optimization is absolutely critical and you must optimize, tabulation will allow you to do optimizations which memoization would not otherwise let you do in a sane way. In my humble opinion, in normal software engineering, neither of these two cases ever come up, so I would just use memoization ("a function which caches its answers") unless something (such as stack space) makes tabulation necessary... though technically to avoid a stack blowout you can 1) increase the stack size limit in languages which allow it, or 2) eat a constant factor of extra work to virtualize your stack (ick), or 3) program in continuation-passing style, which in effect also virtualizes your stack (not sure the complexity of this, but basically you will effectively take the deferred call chain from the stack of size N and de-facto stick it in N successively nested thunk functions... though in some languages without tail-call optimization you may have to trampoline things to avoid a stack blowout).

More complicated examples

Here we list examples of particular interest, that are not just general DP problems, but interestingly distinguish memoization and tabulation. For example, one formulation might be much easier than the other, or there may be an optimization which basically requires tabulation:

the algorithm to calculate edit-distance[4], interesting as a non-trivial example of a two-dimensional table-filling algorithm

How can I simulate mobile devices and debug in Firefox Browser?

Most web applications detects mobile devices based on the HTTP Headers.

If your web site also uses HTTP Headers to identify mobile device, you can do the following:

Add Modify Headers plug in to your Firefox browser ( https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/modify-headers/ )
Using plugin modify headers:
- select Headers tab-> select Action 'ADD'
- to simulate e.g. iPhone add a header with name User-Agent and value: Mozilla/5.0 (iPhone; U; CPU like Mac OS X; en) AppleWebKit/420+ (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/3.0 Mobile/1A543 Safari/419.3
- click 'Add' button
After that you should be able to see mobile version of you web application in Firefox and use Firebug plugin.

Hope it helps!

only integers, slices (`:`), ellipsis (`...`), numpy.newaxis (`None`) and integer or boolean arrays are valid indices

I believe your problem is this: in your while loop, n is divided by 2, but never cast as an integer again, so it becomes a float at some point. It is then added onto y, which is then a float too, and that gives you the warning.

Extract first and last row of a dataframe in pandas

I think you can try add parameter axis=1 to concat, because output of df.iloc[0,:] and df.iloc[-1,:] are Series and transpose by T:

print df.iloc[0,:]
a    1
b    a
Name: 0, dtype: object

print df.iloc[-1,:]
a    4
b    d
Name: 3, dtype: object

print pd.concat([df.iloc[0,:], df.iloc[-1,:]], axis=1)
   0  3
a  1  4
b  a  d

print pd.concat([df.iloc[0,:], df.iloc[-1,:]], axis=1).T
   a  b

Learn from Apple is the best way.

For example, Apple's keyboard notification:

extension UIResponder {

    public class let keyboardWillShowNotification: NSNotification.Name

    public class let keyboardDidShowNotification: NSNotification.Name

    public class let keyboardWillHideNotification: NSNotification.Name

    public class let keyboardDidHideNotification: NSNotification.Name

}

Now I learn from Apple:

extension User {
    /// user did login notification
    static let userDidLogInNotification = Notification.Name(rawValue: "User.userDidLogInNotification")
}

What's more, NSAttributedString.Key.foregroundColor:

extension NSAttributedString {

    public struct Key : Hashable, Equatable, RawRepresentable {

        public init(_ rawValue: String)

        public init(rawValue: String)
    }
}

extension NSAttributedString.Key {

    /************************ Attributes ************************/

    @available(iOS 6.0, *)
    public static let foregroundColor: NSAttributedString.Key // UIColor, default blackColor

}

Now I learn form Apple:

extension UIFont {

    struct Name {

    }

}

extension UIFont.Name {

    static let SFProText_Heavy = "SFProText-Heavy"
    static let SFProText_LightItalic = "SFProText-LightItalic"
    static let SFProText_HeavyItalic = "SFProText-HeavyItalic"

}

usage:

let font = UIFont.init(name: UIFont.Name.SFProText_Heavy, size: 20)

Learn from Apple is the way everyone can do and can promote your code quality easily.

What's the point of 'meta viewport user-scalable=no' in the Google Maps API

On many devices (such as the iPhone), it prevents the user from using the browser's zoom. If you have a map and the browser does the zooming, then the user will see a big ol' pixelated image with huge pixelated labels. The idea is that the user should use the zooming provided by Google Maps. Not sure about any interaction with your plugin, but that's what it's there for.

More recently, as @ehfeng notes in his answer, Chrome for Android (and perhaps others) have taken advantage of the fact that there's no native browser zooming on pages with a viewport tag set like that. This allows them to get rid of the dreaded 300ms delay on touch events that the browser takes to wait and see if your single touch will end up being a double touch. (Think "single click" and "double click".) However, when this question was originally asked (in 2011), this wasn't true in any mobile browser. It's just added awesomeness that fortuitously arose more recently.

How to set up googleTest as a shared library on Linux

Let me answer this specifically for ubuntu users. First start by installing the gtest development package.

sudo apt-get install libgtest-dev

Note that this package only install source files. You have to compile the code yourself to create the necessary library files. These source files should be located at /usr/src/gtest. Browse to this folder and use cmake to compile the library:

sudo apt-get install cmake # install cmake
cd /usr/src/gtest
sudo mkdir build
cd build
sudo cmake ..
sudo make
sudo make install

Now to compile your programs that uses gtest, you have to link it with:

-lgtest -lgtest_main -lpthread

This worked perfectly for me on Ubuntu 14.04LTS.

How to normalize a vector in MATLAB efficiently? Any related built-in function?

The only problem you would run into is if the norm of V is zero (or very close to it). This could give you Inf or NaN when you divide, along with a divide-by-zero warning. If you don't care about getting an Inf or NaN, you can just turn the warning on and off using WARNING:

oldState = warning('off','MATLAB:divideByZero');  % Return previous state then
                                                  %   turn off DBZ warning
uV = V/norm(V);
warning(oldState);  % Restore previous state

If you don't want any Inf or NaN values, you have to check the size of the norm first:

normV = norm(V);
if normV > 0,  % Or some other threshold, like EPS
  uV = V/normV;
else,
  uV = V;  % Do nothing since it's basically 0
end

If I need it in a program, I usually put the above code in my own function, usually called unit (since it basically turns a vector into a unit vector pointing in the same direction).

Change the value in app.config file dynamically

Expanding on Adis H's example to include the null case (got bit on this one)

 Configuration config = ConfigurationManager.OpenExeConfiguration(ConfigurationUserLevel.None);
            if (config.AppSettings.Settings["HostName"] != null)
                config.AppSettings.Settings["HostName"].Value = hostName;
            else                
                config.AppSettings.Settings.Add("HostName", hostName);                
            config.Save(ConfigurationSaveMode.Modified);
            ConfigurationManager.RefreshSection("appSettings");

How to set a value of a variable inside a template code?

Create a template tag:

The app should contain a templatetags directory, at the same level as models.py, views.py, etc. If this doesn’t already exist, create it - don’t forget the __init__.py file to ensure the directory is treated as a Python package.

Create a file named `define_action.py` inside of the templatetags directory with the following code:

from django import template
register = template.Library()

@register.simple_tag
def define(val=None):
  return val

Note: Development server won’t automatically restart. After adding the templatetags module, you will need to restart your server before you can use the tags or filters in templates.

Then in your template you can assign values to the context like this:

{% load define_action %}
{% if item %}

   {% define "Edit" as action %}

{% else %}

   {% define "Create" as action %}

{% endif %}


Would you like to {{action}} this item?

.gitignore exclude folder but include specific subfolder

The simplest and probably best way is to try adding the files manually (generally this takes precedence over .gitignore-style rules):

git add /path/to/module

You may even want the -N intent to add flag, to suggest you will add them, but not immediately. I often do this for new files I’m not ready to stage yet.

This a copy of an answer posted on what could easily be a duplicate QA. I am reposting it here for increased visibility—I find it easier not to have a mess of gitignore rules.

Android Activity without ActionBar

Considering everyone is posting older ways of hiding the ActionBar here is the proper way of implementing it within styles for AppCompat support library. Which I highly suggest moving toward if you haven't already.

Simply removing the ActionBar

<style name="AppTheme" parent="Theme.AppCompat.Light.NoActionBar">
</style>

If you are using the appcompat support libraries, this is the easiest and recommended way of hiding the ActionBar to make full screen or start implementing to toolbar within your layouts.

<style name="AppTheme" parent="Theme.AppCompat.Light.NoActionBar">
    <!-- Your Toolbar Color-->
    <item name="colorPrimary">@color/primary</item>

    <!-- colorPrimaryDark is used for the status bar -->
    <item name="colorPrimaryDark">@color/primary_dark</item>

    <!-- colorAccent is used as the default value for colorControlActivated,
     which is used to tint widgets -->
    <item name="colorAccent">@color/accent</item>

    <!-- You can also set colorControlNormal, colorControlActivated
     colorControlHighlight, and colorSwitchThumbNormal. -->
</style>

Then to change your toolbar color

<android.support.v7.widget.Toolbar
    android:id=”@+id/my_awesome_toolbar”
    android:layout_height=”wrap_content”
    android:layout_width=”match_parent”
    android:minHeight=”?attr/actionBarSize”
    android:background=”?attr/primary” />

Last note: Your Activity class should extend AppCompatActivity

public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {

<!--Activity Items -->

}

Is there a way to create key-value pairs in Bash script?

For persistent key/value storage, you can use kv-bash, a pure bash implementation of key/value database available at https://github.com/damphat/kv-bash

Usage

git clone https://github.com/damphat/kv-bash
source kv-bash/kv-bash

Try create some permanent variables

kvset myName  xyz
kvset myEmail [email protected]

#read the varible
kvget myEmail

#you can also use in another script with $(kvget keyname)
echo $(kvget myEmail)

How to add 10 minutes to my (String) time?

Something like this

 String myTime = "14:10";
 SimpleDateFormat df = new SimpleDateFormat("HH:mm");
 Date d = df.parse(myTime); 
 Calendar cal = Calendar.getInstance();
 cal.setTime(d);
 cal.add(Calendar.MINUTE, 10);
 String newTime = df.format(cal.getTime());

As a fair warning there might be some problems if daylight savings time is involved in this 10 minute period.

How to redirect both stdout and stderr to a file

The simplest syntax to redirect both is:

command &> logfile

If you want to append to the file instead of overwrite:

command &>> logfile

Merge a Branch into Trunk

If your working directory points to the trunk, then you should be able to merge your branch with:

How to compare dates in datetime fields in Postgresql?

When you compare update_date >= '2013-05-03' postgres casts values to the same type to compare values. So your '2013-05-03' was casted to '2013-05-03 00:00:00'.

So for update_date = '2013-05-03 14:45:00' your expression will be that:

'2013-05-03 14:45:00' >= '2013-05-03 00:00:00' AND '2013-05-03 14:45:00' <= '2013-05-03 00:00:00'

This is always false

To solve this problem cast update_date to date:

select * from table where update_date::date >= '2013-05-03' AND update_date::date <= '2013-05-03' -> Will return result

Selecting a Linux I/O Scheduler

You can set this at boot by adding the "elevator" parameter to the kernel cmdline (such as in grub.cfg)

Example:

elevator=deadline

This will make "deadline" the default I/O scheduler for all block devices.

If you'd like to query or change the scheduler after the system has booted, or would like to use a different scheduler for a specific block device, I recommend installing and use the tool ioschedset to make this easy.

https://github.com/kata198/ioschedset

If you're on Archlinux it's available in aur:

https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/ioschedset

Some example usage:

# Get i/o scheduler for all block devices
[username@hostname ~]$ io-get-sched
sda:    bfq
sr0:    bfq

# Query available I/O schedulers
[username@hostname ~]$ io-set-sched --list
mq-deadline kyber bfq none

# Set sda to use "kyber"
[username@hostname ~]$ io-set-sched kyber /dev/sda
Must be root to set IO Scheduler. Rerunning under sudo...

[sudo] password for username:
+ Successfully set sda to 'kyber'!

# Get i/o scheduler for all block devices to assert change
[username@hostname ~]$ io-get-sched
sda:    kyber
sr0:    bfq

# Set all block devices to use 'deadline' i/o scheduler
[username@hostname ~]$ io-set-sched deadline
Must be root to set IO Scheduler. Rerunning under sudo...

+ Successfully set sda to 'deadline'!
+ Successfully set sr0 to 'deadline'!

# Get the current block scheduler just for sda
[username@hostname ~]$ io-get-sched sda
sda:    mq-deadline

Usage should be self-explanatory. The tools are standalone and only require bash.

Hope this helps!

EDIT: Disclaimer, these are scripts I wrote.

What's wrong with foreign keys?

There's one good reason not to use them: If you don't understand their role or how to use them.

In the wrong situations, foreign key constraints can lead to waterfall replication of accidents. If somebody removes the wrong record, undoing it can become a mammoth task.

Also, conversely, when you need to remove something, if poorly designed, constraints can cause all sorts of locks that prevent you.

How to drop SQL default constraint without knowing its name?

Run this command to browse all constraints:

exec sp_helpconstraint 'mytable' --and look under constraint_name.

It will look something like this: DF__Mytable__Column__[ABC123]. Then you can just drop the constraint.

How to bind DataTable to Datagrid

I'd do it this way:

grid1.DataContext = dt.AsEnumerable().Where(x => x < 10).AsEnumerable().CopyToDataTable().AsDataView();

and do whatever query i want between the two AsEnumerable(). If you don't need space for query, you can just do directly this:

grid1.DataContext = dt.AsDataView();

How can I convert integer into float in Java?

Sameer:

float l = new Float(x/y)

will not work, as it will compute integer division of x and y first, then construct a float from it.

float result = (float) x / (float) y;

Is semantically the best candidate.

How to revert a merge commit that's already pushed to remote branch?

Ben has told you how to revert a merge commit, but it's very important you realize that in doing so

"...declares that you will never want the tree changes brought in by the merge. As a result, later merges will only bring in tree changes introduced by commits that are not ancestors of the previously reverted merge. This may or may not be what you want." (git-merge man page).

An article/mailing list message linked from the man page details the mechanisms and considerations that are involved. Just make sure you understand that if you revert the merge commit, you can't just merge the branch again later and expect the same changes to come back.

I want to multiply two columns in a pandas DataFrame and add the result into a new column

Good solution from bmu. I think it's more readable to put the values inside the parentheses vs outside.

    df['Values'] = np.where(df.Action == 'Sell', 
                            df.Prices*df.Amount, 
                           -df.Prices*df.Amount)

Using some pandas built in functions.

    df['Values'] = np.where(df.Action.eq('Sell'), 
                            df.Prices.mul(df.Amount), 
                           -df.Prices.mul(df.Amount))

Why am I getting "(304) Not Modified" error on some links when using HttpWebRequest?

This is intended behavior.

When you make an HTTP request, the server normally returns code 200 OK. If you set If-Modified-Since, the server may return 304 Not modified (and the response will not have the content). This is supposed to be your cue that the page has not been modified.

The authors of the class have foolishly decided that 304 should be treated as an error and throw an exception. Now you have to clean up after them by catching the exception every time you try to use If-Modified-Since.

What are the lengths of Location Coordinates, latitude and longitude?

Please check the UTM coordinate system https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Universal_Transverse_Mercator_coordinate_system.

How to time Java program execution speed

I created a higher order function which takes the code you want to measure in/as a lambda:

class Utils {

    public static <T> T timeIt(String msg, Supplier<T> s) {
        long startTime = System.nanoTime();
        T t = s.get();
        long endTime = System.nanoTime();
        System.out.println(msg + ": " + (endTime - startTime) + " ns");
        return t;
    }

    public static void timeIt(String msg, Runnable r) {
       timeIt(msg, () -> {r.run(); return null; });
    }
}

Call it like that:

Utils.timeIt("code 0", () ->
        System.out.println("Hallo")
);

// in case you need the result of the lambda
int i = Utils.timeIt("code 1", () ->
        5 * 5
);

Output:

code 0: 180528 ns
code 1: 12003 ns

How do I add comments to package.json for npm install?

Another hack

I created a script to read file package.json as the context for a handlebars template.

The code is below, in case someone finds this approach useful:

const templateData = require('../package.json');
const Handlebars = require('handlebars');
const fs = require('fs-extra');
const outputPath = __dirname + '/../package-json-comments.md';
const srcTemplatePath = __dirname + '/package-json-comments/package-json-comments.hbs';

Handlebars.registerHelper('objlist', function() {
  // The first argument is an object, and the list is a set of keys for that obj
  const obj = arguments[0];
  const list = Array.prototype.slice.call(arguments, 1).slice(0,-1);

  const mdList = list.map(function(k) {
    return '* ' + k + ': ' + obj[k];
  });

  return new Handlebars.SafeString(mdList.join("\n"));
});

fs.readFile(srcTemplatePath, 'utf8', function(err, srcTemplate){
  if (err) throw err;
  const template = Handlebars.compile(srcTemplate);
  const content = template(templateData);

  fs.writeFile(outputPath, content, function(err) {
    if (err) throw err;
  });
});

range() for floats

As kichik wrote, this shouldn't be too complicated. However this code:

def frange(x, y, jump):
  while x < y:
    yield x
    x += jump

Is inappropriate because of the cumulative effect of errors when working with floats. That is why you receive something like:

>>>list(frange(0, 100, 0.1))[-1]
99.9999999999986

While the expected behavior would be:

>>>list(frange(0, 100, 0.1))[-1]
99.9

Solution 1

The cumulative error can simply be reduced by using an index variable. Here's the example:

from math import ceil

    def frange2(start, stop, step):
        n_items = int(ceil((stop - start) / step))
        return (start + i*step for i in range(n_items))

This example works as expected.

Solution 2

No nested functions. Only a while and a counter variable:

def frange3(start, stop, step):
    res, n = start, 1

    while res < stop:
        yield res
        res = start + n * step
        n += 1

This function will work well too, except for the cases when you want the reversed range. E.g:

>>>list(frange3(1, 0, -.1))
[]

Solution 1 in this case will work as expected. To make this function work in such situations, you must apply a hack, similar to the following:

from operator import gt, lt

def frange3(start, stop, step):
    res, n = start, 0.
    predicate = lt if start < stop else gt
    while predicate(res, stop):
        yield res
        res = start + n * step
        n += 1

With this hack you can use these functions with negative steps:

>>>list(frange3(1, 0, -.1))
[1, 0.9, 0.8, 0.7, 0.6, 0.5, 0.3999999999999999, 0.29999999999999993, 0.19999999999999996, 0.09999999999999998]

Solution 3

You can go even further with plain standard library and compose a range function for the most of numeric types:

from itertools import count
from itertools import takewhile

def any_range(start, stop, step):
    start = type(start + step)(start)
    return takewhile(lambda n: n < stop, count(start, step))

This generator is adapted from the Fluent Python book (Chapter 14. Iterables, Iterators and generators). It will not work with decreasing ranges. You must apply a hack, like in the previous solution.

You can use this generator as follows, for example:

>>>list(any_range(Fraction(2, 1), Fraction(100, 1), Fraction(1, 3)))[-1]
299/3
>>>list(any_range(Decimal('2.'), Decimal('4.'), Decimal('.3')))
[Decimal('2'), Decimal('2.3'), Decimal('2.6'), Decimal('2.9'), Decimal('3.2'), Decimal('3.5'), Decimal('3.8')]

And of course you can use it with float and int as well.

Be careful

If you want to use these functions with negative steps, you should add a check for the step sign, e.g.:

no_proceed = (start < stop and step < 0) or (start > stop and step > 0)
if no_proceed: raise StopIteration

The best option here is to raise StopIteration, if you want to mimic the range function itself.

Mimic range

If you would like to mimic the range function interface, you can provide some argument checks:

def any_range2(*args):
    if len(args) == 1:
        start, stop, step = 0, args[0], 1.
    elif len(args) == 2:
        start, stop, step = args[0], args[1], 1.
    elif len(args) == 3:
        start, stop, step = args
    else:
        raise TypeError('any_range2() requires 1-3 numeric arguments')

    # here you can check for isinstance numbers.Real or use more specific ABC or whatever ...

    start = type(start + step)(start)
    return takewhile(lambda n: n < stop, count(start, step))

I think, you've got the point. You can go with any of these functions (except the very first one) and all you need for them is python standard library.

git recover deleted file where no commit was made after the delete

Found this post while looking for answers on how to un-delete a file that was deleted in my working directory after a merge from another's branch. No commit was yet made after the merge. Since it was a merge in progress, i could not just add it back using:

$ git reset <commitid#-where-file.cpp-existed> file.cpp

I had to do another step in addition to the reset to bring the file back:

$ git checkout -- file.cpp

Owl Carousel Won't Autoplay

Changing autoplay to autoPlay alone did not work for me. What did the trick was to add autoplaySpeed and autoplayTimeout properties and set them to the same value, like this:

$(document).ready(function(){
    var owl = $(".owl-carousel");
    owl.owlCarousel({
        items: 1,
        autoplay: true,
        autoPlaySpeed: 5000,
        autoPlayTimeout: 5000,
        autoplayHoverPause: true
    });
});

Here's a working demo: JS Bin

More info about this can be found here: https://github.com/smashingboxes/OwlCarousel2/issues/234

Python: list of lists

First, I strongly recommend that you rename your variable list to something else. list is the name of the built-in list constructor, and you're hiding its normal function. I will rename list to a in the following.

Python names are references that are bound to objects. That means that unless you create more than one list, whenever you use a it's referring to the same actual list object as last time. So when you call

listoflists.append((a, a[0]))

you can later change a and it changes what the first element of that tuple points to. This does not happen with a[0] because the object (which is an integer) pointed to by a[0] doesn't change (although a[0] points to different objects over the run of your code).

You can create a copy of the whole list a using the list constructor:

listoflists.append((list(a), a[0]))

Or, you can use the slice notation to make a copy:

listoflists.append((a[:], a[0]))

Error in installation a R package

The solution indicated by Guannan Shen has one drawback that usually goes unnoticed.

When you run sudo R in order to run install.packages() as superuser, the directories in which you install the library end up belonging to root user, a.k.a., the superuser.

So, next time you need to update your libraries, you will not remember that you ran sudo, therefore leaving root as the owner of the files and directories; that eventually causes the error when trying to move files, because no one can overwrite root but themself.

That can be averted by running

sudo chown -R yourusername:yourusername *

in the directory lib that contains your local libraries, replacing yourusername by the adequated value in your installation. Then you try installing once again.

Get the Highlighted/Selected text

This solution works if you're using chrome (can't verify other browsers) and if the text is located in the same DOM Element:

window.getSelection().anchorNode.textContent.substring(
  window.getSelection().extentOffset, 
  window.getSelection().anchorOffset)

How to escape a JSON string to have it in a URL?

I'll offer an oddball alternative. Sometimes it's easier to use different encoding, especially if you're dealing with a variety of systems that don't all handle the details of URL encoding the same way. This isn't the most mainstream approach but can come in handy in certain situations.

Rather than URL-encoding the data, you can base64-encode it. The benefit of this is the encoded data is very generic, consisting only of alpha characters and sometimes trailing ='s. Example:

JSON array-of-strings:

["option", "Fred's dog", "Bill & Trudy", "param=3"]

That data, URL-encoded as the data param:

"data=%5B%27option%27%2C+%22Fred%27s+dog%22%2C+%27Bill+%26+Trudy%27%2C+%27param%3D3%27%5D"

Same, base64-encoded:

"data=WyJvcHRpb24iLCAiRnJlZCdzIGRvZyIsICJCaWxsICYgVHJ1ZHkiLCAicGFyYW09MyJd"

The base64 approach can be a bit shorter, but more importantly it's simpler. I often have problems moving URL-encoded data between cURL, web browsers and other clients, usually due to quotes, embedded % signs and so on. Base64 is very neutral because it doesn't use special characters.

PHP: How do I display the contents of a textfile on my page?

I have to display files of computer code. If special characters are inside the file like less than or greater than, a simple "include" will not display them. Try:

$file = 'code.ino';
$orig = file_get_contents($file);
$a = htmlentities($orig);

echo '<code>';
echo '<pre>';

echo $a;

echo '</pre>';
echo '</code>';

Swift's guard keyword

There are really two big benefits to guard. One is avoiding the pyramid of doom, as others have mentioned – lots of annoying if let statements nested inside each other moving further and further to the right.

The other benefit is often the logic you want to implement is more "if not let” than "if let { } else".

Here’s an example: suppose you want to implement accumulate – a cross between map and reduce where it gives you back an array of running reduces. Here it is with guard:

extension Sliceable where SubSlice.Generator.Element == Generator.Element {

    func accumulate(combine: (Generator.Element,Generator.Element)->Generator.Element) -> [Generator.Element] {
        // if there are no elements, I just want to bail out and
        // return an empty array
        guard var running = self.first else { return [] }

        // running will now be an unwrapped non-optional
        var result = [running]

        // dropFirst is safe because the collection
        // must have at least one element at this point
        for x in dropFirst(self) {
            running = combine(running, x)
            result.append(running)
        }
        return result
    }

}


let a = [1,2,3].accumulate(+)  // [1,3,6]
let b = [Int]().accumulate(+)  // []

How would you write it without guard, but still using first that returns an optional? Something like this:

extension Sliceable where SubSlice.Generator.Element == Generator.Element {

    func accumulate(combine: (Generator.Element,Generator.Element)->Generator.Element) -> [Generator.Element] {

        if var running = self.first  {
            var result = [running]

            for x in dropFirst(self) {
                running = combine(running, x)
                result.append(running)
            }
            return result
        }
        else {
            return []
        }
    }

}

The extra nesting is annoying, but also, it’s not as logical to have the if and the else so far apart. It’s much more readable to have the early exit for the empty case, and then continue with the rest of the function as if that wasn’t a possibility.

Delete specific line number(s) from a text file using sed?

This is very often a symptom of an antipattern. The tool which produced the line numbers may well be replaced with one which deletes the lines right away. For example;

grep -nh error logfile | cut -d: -f1 | deletelines logfile

(where deletelines is the utility you are imagining you need) is the same as

grep -v error logfile

Having said that, if you are in a situation where you genuinely need to perform this task, you can generate a simple sed script from the file of line numbers. Humorously (but perhaps slightly confusingly) you can do this with sed.

sed 's%$%d%' linenumbers

This accepts a file of line numbers, one per line, and produces, on standard output, the same line numbers with d appended after each. This is a valid sed script, which we can save to a file, or (on some platforms) pipe to another sed instance:

sed 's%$%d%' linenumbers | sed -f - logfile

On some platforms, sed -f does not understand the option argument - to mean standard input, so you have to redirect the script to a temporary file, and clean it up when you are done, or maybe replace the lone dash with /dev/stdin or /proc/$pid/fd/1 if your OS (or shell) has that.

As always, you can add -i before the -f option to have sed edit the target file in place, instead of producing the result on standard output. On *BSDish platforms (including OSX) you need to supply an explicit argument to -i as well; a common idiom is to supply an empty argument; -i ''.

Please run `npm cache clean`

This error can be due to many many things.

The key here seems the hint about error reading. I see you are working on a flash drive or something similar? Try to run the install on a local folder owned by your current user.

You could also try with sudo, that might solve a permission problem if that's the case.

Another reason why it cannot read could be because it has not downloaded correctly, or saved correctly. A little problem in your network could have caused that, and the cache clean would remove the files and force a refetch but that does not solve your problem. That means it would be more on the save part, maybe it didn't save because of permissions, maybe it didn't not save correctly because it was lacking disk space...

How can I capture the right-click event in JavaScript?

I think that you are looking for something like this:

   function rightclick() {
    var rightclick;
    var e = window.event;
    if (e.which) rightclick = (e.which == 3);
    else if (e.button) rightclick = (e.button == 2);
    alert(rightclick); // true or false, you can trap right click here by if comparison
}

(http://www.quirksmode.org/js/events_properties.html)

And then use the onmousedown even with the function rightclick() (if you want to use it globally on whole page you can do this <body onmousedown=rightclick(); >

Why does Maven have such a bad rep?

I love Maven - it boosts productivity, and I am very happy that I am no longer using Ant (phew!)

Git/GitHub can't push to master

GitHub doesn't support pushing over the Git protocol, which is indicated by your use of the URL beginning git://. As the error message says, if you want to push, you should use either the SSH URL [email protected]:my_user_name/my_repo.git or the "smart HTTP" protocol by using the https:// URL that GitHub shows you for your repository.

(Update: to my surprise, some people apparently thought that by this I was suggesting that "https" means "smart HTTP", which I wasn't. Git used to have a "dumb HTTP" protocol which didn't allow pushing before the "smart HTTP" that GitHub uses was introduced - either could be used over either http or https. The differences between the transfer protocols used by Git are explained in the link below.)

If you want to change the URL of origin, you can just do:

git remote set-url origin [email protected]:my_user_name/my_repo.git

git remote set-url origin https://github.com/my_user_name/my_repo.git

More information is available in 10.6 Git Internals - Transfer Protocols.

Import file size limit in PHPMyAdmin

I had a problem with changing the upload size on my phpmyadmin and OS X 10.9.4 Mavericks. At first I didn't know where the php.ini is so used locate

locate php.ini

which came back with

/private/etc/php.ini.default
/usr/local/etc/php/5.4/php.ini

I've tried editing /usr/local/etc/php/5.4/php.ini and then restart in the server put this didn't work.

I remembered that there is a better way to find out this file I'm looking for or and least where php is looking for php.ini.

<?php phpinfo() ?>

came back saying that it expects /etc/php.ini but I didn't have one there. The below is from the phpinfo():

Configuration File (php.ini) Path: /etc

It turns out that the first result in the locate command above is what I'm looking for.

At least in OS X 10.9.4 Mavericks (OS X is something new to me) /etc is actually a link, etc -> private/etc, and by the looks of it PHP assumes default values unless php.ini is actually present.

I copied /private/etc/php.ini.default

cp /private/etc/php.ini.default /private/etc/php.ini

Then checked the variables in the new /etc/php.ini as per Aditya Bhatt advice above and it worked. In my case the values were:

memory_limit =128M
post_max_size = 64M
upload_max_filesize = 64M

Obviously, the apache service has to be restarted to see the changes.

What is IllegalStateException?

Illegal State Exception is an Unchecked exception.

It indicate that method has been invoked at wrong time.

how to check which version of nltk, scikit learn installed?

In Windows® systems you can simply try

pip3 list | findstr scikit

scikit-learn                  0.22.1

If you are on Anaconda try

conda list scikit

scikit-learn              0.22.1           py37h6288b17_0

And this can be used to find out the version of any package you have installed. For example

pip3 list | findstr numpy

numpy                         1.17.4
numpydoc                      0.9.2

Or if you want to look for more than one package at a time

pip3 list | findstr "scikit numpy"

numpy                         1.17.4
numpydoc                      0.9.2
scikit-learn                  0.22.1

Note the quote characters are required when searching for more than one word.

Take care.

Waiting for background processes to finish before exiting script

Even if you do not have the pid, you can trigger 'wait;' after triggering all background processes. For. eg. in commandfile.sh-

bteq < input_file1.sql > output_file1.sql &
bteq < input_file2.sql > output_file2.sql &
bteq < input_file3.sql > output_file3.sql &
wait

Then when this is triggered, as -

subprocess.call(['sh', 'commandfile.sh'])
print('all background processes done.')

This will be printed only after all the background processes are done.

HTML5 form required attribute. Set custom validation message?

Note: This no longer works in Chrome, not tested in other browsers. See edits below. This answer is being left here for historical reference.

If you feel that the validation string really should not be set by code, you can set you input element's title attribute to read "This field cannot be left blank". (Works in Chrome 10)

title="This field should not be left blank."

See http://jsfiddle.net/kaleb/nfgfP/8/

And in Firefox, you can add this attribute:

x-moz-errormessage="This field should not be left blank."

Edit

This seems to have changed since I originally wrote this answer. Now adding a title does not change the validity message, it just adds an addendum to the message. The fiddle above still applies.

Edit 2

Chrome now does nothing with the title attribute as of Chrome 51. I am not sure in which version this changed.

Insert/Update Many to Many Entity Framework . How do I do it?

I wanted to add my experience on that. Indeed EF, when you add an object to the context, it changes the state of all the children and related entities to Added. Although there is a small exception in the rule here: if the children/related entities are being tracked by the same context, EF does understand that these entities exist and doesn't add them. The problem happens when for example, you load the children/related entities from some other context or a web ui etc and then yes, EF doesn't know anything about these entities and goes and adds all of them. To avoid that, just get the keys of the entities and find them (e.g. context.Students.FirstOrDefault(s => s.Name == "Alice")) in the same context in which you want to do the addition.

How to know if a Fragment is Visible?

You should be able to do the following:

if (test != null && test.isVisible()) {
     //DO STUFF
}
else {
    //Whatever
}

Check if passed argument is file or directory in Bash

That should work. I am not sure why it's failing. You're quoting your variables properly. What happens if you use this script with double [[ ]]?

if [[ -d $PASSED ]]; then
    echo "$PASSED is a directory"
elif [[ -f $PASSED ]]; then
    echo "$PASSED is a file"
else
    echo "$PASSED is not valid"
    exit 1
fi

Double square brackets is a bash extension to [ ]. It doesn't require variables to be quoted, not even if they contain spaces.

Also worth trying: -e to test if a path exists without testing what type of file it is.

How can I modify a saved Microsoft Access 2007 or 2010 Import Specification?

I used Mike Hansen's solution, it is great. I modified his solution in one point, instead of replacing parts of the string I modified the XML-attribute. Maybe it is too much of an effort when you can modify the string but anyway, here is my solution for that. This could easily be further modified to change the table etc. too, which is very nice imho.

What was helpful for me was a helper sub to write the XML to a file so I could check the structure and content of it:

Sub writeStringToFile(strPath As String, strText As String)
    '#### writes a given string into a given filePath, overwriting a document if it already exists
        Dim objStream
        
        Set objStream = CreateObject("ADODB.Stream")
        objStream.Charset = "utf-8"
        objStream.Open
        objStream.WriteText strText
        objStream.SaveToFile strPath, 2
    End Sub

The XML of an/my ImportExportSpecification for a table with 2 columns looks like this:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<ImportExportSpecification Path="mypath\mydocument.xlsx" xmlns="urn:www.microsoft.com/office/access/imexspec">
    <ImportExcel FirstRowHasNames="true" AppendToTable="myTableName" Range="myExcelWorksheetName">
        <Columns PrimaryKey="{Auto}">
            <Column Name="Col1" FieldName="SomeFieldName" Indexed="NO" SkipColumn="false" DataType="Double"/>
            <Column Name="Col2" FieldName="SomeFieldName" Indexed="NO" SkipColumn="false" DataType="Text"/>
        </Columns>
    </ImportExcel>
</ImportExportSpecification>

Then I wrote a function to modify the path. I left out error-handling here:

Function modifyDataSourcePath(strNewPath As String, strXMLSpec As String) As String
'#### Changes the path-name of an import-export specification
    Dim xDoc As MSXML2.DOMDocument60
    Dim childNodes As IXMLDOMNodeList
    Dim nodeImExSpec As MSXML2.IXMLDOMNode
    Dim childNode As MSXML2.IXMLDOMNode
    Dim attributesImExSpec As IXMLDOMNamedNodeMap
    Dim attributeImExSpec As IXMLDOMAttribute

    
    Set xDoc = New MSXML2.DOMDocument60
    xDoc.async = False: xDoc.validateOnParse = False
    xDoc.LoadXML (strXMLSpec)
    Set childNodes = xDoc.childNodes
 
    For Each childNode In childNodes
           If childNode.nodeName = "ImportExportSpecification" Then
                Set nodeImExSpec = childNode
                Exit For
            End If
    Next childNode
    
    Set attributesImExSpec = nodeImExSpec.Attributes
    
    For Each attributeImExSpec In attributesImExSpec
        If attributeImExSpec.nodeName = "Path" Then
            attributeImExSpec.Value = strNewPath
            Exit For
        End If
    Next attributeImExSpec
    
    modifyDataSourcePath = xDoc.XML
End Function

I use this in Mike's code before the newSpec is executed and instead of the replace statement. Also I write the XML-string into an XML-file in a location relative to the database but that line is optional:

Set myNewSpec = CurrentProject.ImportExportSpecifications.item("TemporaryImport")
    myNewSpec.XML = modifyDataSourcePath(myPath, myNewSpec.XML)
    Call writeStringToFile(Application.CurrentProject.Path & "\impExpSpec.xml", myNewSpec.XML)
    myNewSpec.Execute

Add a "sort" to a =QUERY statement in Google Spreadsheets

You can use ORDER BY clause to sort data rows by values in columns. Something like

=QUERY(responses!A1:K; "Select C, D, E where B contains '2nd Web Design' Order By C, D")

If you’d like to order by some columns descending, others ascending, you can add desc/asc, ie:

=QUERY(responses!A1:K; "Select C, D, E where B contains '2nd Web Design' Order By C desc, D")

Use images instead of radio buttons

Here is a simple jQuery UI solution based on the example here:

http://jqueryui.com/button/#radio

Modified code:

<!doctype html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
  <meta charset="utf-8">
  <title>jQuery UI Button - Radios</title>
  <link rel="stylesheet" href="//code.jquery.com/ui/1.11.3/themes/smoothness/jquery-ui.css">
  <script src="//code.jquery.com/jquery-1.10.2.js"></script>
  <script src="//code.jquery.com/ui/1.11.3/jquery-ui.js"></script>
  <link rel="stylesheet" href="/resources/demos/style.css">
  <script>
  $(function() {
    $( "#radio" ).buttonset();
  });
  </script>
</head>
<body>

<form>
  <div id="radio">
    <input type="radio" id="radio1" name="radio"><label for="radio1"><img src="image1.gif" /></label>
    <input type="radio" id="radio2" name="radio" checked="checked"><label for="radio2"><img src="image2.gif" /></label>
    <input type="radio" id="radio3" name="radio"><label for="radio3"><img src="image3.gif" /></label>
  </div>
</form>

</body>
</html>

jQueryUI takes care of the image background so you know which button is checked.

Beware: If you want to set a button to checked or unchecked via Javascript, you must call the refresh function:

        $('#radio3').prop('checked', true).button("refresh");

Typescript Type 'string' is not assignable to type

All the above answers are valid, however, there are some cases that the String Literal Type is part of another complex type. Consider the following example:

  // in foo.ts
  export type ToolbarTheme = {
    size: 'large' | 'small',
  };

  // in bar.ts
  import { ToolbarTheme } from './foo.ts';
  function useToolbarTheme(theme: ToolbarTheme) {/* ... */}

  // Here you will get the following error: 
  // Type 'string' is not assignable to type '"small" | "large"'.ts(2322)
  ['large', 'small'].forEach(size => (
    useToolbarTheme({ size })
  ));

You have multiple solutions to fix this. Each solution is valid and has its own use cases.

1) The first solution is to define a type for the size and export it from the foo.ts. This is good if when you need to work with the size parameter by its own. For example, you have a function that accepts or returns a parameter of type size and you want to type it.

  // in foo.ts
  export type ToolbarThemeSize = 'large' | 'small';
  export type ToolbarTheme = {
    size: ToolbarThemeSize
  };

  // in bar.ts
  import { ToolbarTheme, ToolbarThemeSize } from './foo.ts';
  function useToolbarTheme(theme: ToolbarTheme) {/* ... */}
  function getToolbarSize(): ToolbarThemeSize  {/* ... */}

  ['large', 'small'].forEach(size => (
    useToolbarTheme({ size: size as ToolbarThemeSize })
  ));

2) The second option is to just cast it to the type ToolbarTheme. In this case, you don't need to expose the internal of ToolbarTheme if you don't need.

  // in foo.ts
  export type ToolbarTheme = {
    size: 'large' | 'small'
  };

  // in bar.ts
  import { ToolbarTheme } from './foo.ts';
  function useToolbarTheme(theme: ToolbarTheme) {/* ... */}

  ['large', 'small'].forEach(size => (
    useToolbarTheme({ size } as ToolbarTheme)
  ));

If you wish to render a html file, use:

response.sendfile('index.html');

Then you remove:

app.set('view engine', 'html');

Put your *.html in the views directory, or serve a public directory as static dir and put the index.html in the public dir.

How to update a single pod without touching other dependencies

You can never get 100% isolation. Because a pod may have some shared dependencies and if you attempt to update your single pod, then it would update the dependencies of other pods as well. If that is ok then:

tl;dr use:

pod update podName

Why? Read below.

pod update will NOT respect the podfile.lock. It will override it — pertaining to that single pod
pod install will respect the podfile.lock, but will try installing every pod mentioned in the podfile based on the versions its locked to (in the Podfile.lock).

This diagram helps better understand the differences:

The major problem comes from the ~> aka optimistic operator.

Using exact versions in the `Podfile` is not enough

Some might think that specifying exact versions of their pods in their Podfile, like pod 'A', '1.0.0', is enough to guarantee that every user will have the same version as other people on the team.

Then they might even use pod update, even when just adding a new pod, thinking it would never risk updating other pods because they are fixed to a specific version in the Podfile.

But in fact, that is not enough to guarantee that user1 and user2 in our above scenario will always get the exact same version of all their pods.

One typical example is if the pod A has a dependency on pod A2 — declared in A.podspec as dependency 'A2', '~> 3.0'. In such case, using pod 'A', '1.0.0' in your Podfile will indeed force user1 and user2 to both always use version 1.0.0 of the pod A, but:

user1 might end up with pod A2 in version 3.4 (because that was A2's latest version at that time)
while when user2 runs pod install when joining the project later, they might get pod A2 in version 3.5 (because the maintainer of A2 might have released a new version in the meantime). That's why the only way to ensure every team member work with the same versions of all the pod on each's the computer is to use the Podfile.lock and properly use pod install vs. pod update.

The above excerpt was all derived from pod install vs. pod update

I also highly recommend watching what does a podfile.lock do

How to access static resources when mapping a global front controller servlet on /*

As of 3.0.4 you should be able to use mvc:resources in combination with mvc:default-servlet-handler as described in the spring documentation to achieve this.

http://static.springsource.org/spring/docs/3.0.x/spring-framework-reference/html/mvc.html#mvc-static-resources

How and where to use ::ng-deep?

Make sure not to miss the explanation of :host-context which is directly above ::ng-deep in the angular guide : https://angular.io/guide/component-styles. I missed it up until now and wish I'd seen it sooner.

::ng-deep is often necessary when you didn't write the component and don't have access to its source, but :host-context can be a very useful option when you do.

For example I have a black <h1> header inside a component I designed, and I want the ability to change it to white when it's displayed on a dark themed background.

If I didn't have access to the source I may have to do this in the css for the parent:

.theme-dark widget-box ::ng-deep h1 { color: white; }

But instead with :host-context you can do this inside the component.

 h1 
 {
     color: black;       // default color

     :host-context(.theme-dark) &
     {
         color: white;   // color for dark-theme
     }

     // OR set an attribute 'outside' with [attr.theme]="'dark'"

     :host-context([theme='dark']) &
     {
         color: white;   // color for dark-theme
     }
 }

This will look anywhere in the component chain for .theme-dark and apply the css to the h1 if found. This is a good alternative to relying too much on ::ng-deep which while often necessary is somewhat of an anti-pattern.

In this case the & is replaced by the h1 (that's how sass/scss works) so you can define your 'normal' and themed/alternative css right next to each other which is very handy.

Be careful to get the correct number of :. For ::ng-deep there are two and for :host-context only one.

Why use armeabi-v7a code over armeabi code?

Depends on what your native code does, but v7a has support for hardware floating point operations, which makes a huge difference. armeabi will work fine on all devices, but will be a lot slower, and won't take advantage of newer devices' CPU capabilities. Do take some benchmarks for your particular application, but removing the armeabi-v7a binaries is generally not a good idea. If you need to reduce size, you might want to have two separate apks for older (armeabi) and newer (armeabi-v7a) devices.

SQL: parse the first, middle and last name from a fullname field

I would do this as an iterative process.

1) Dump the table to a flat file to work with.

2) Write a simple program to break up your Names using a space as separator where firsts token is the first name, if there are 3 token then token 2 is middle name and token 3 is last name. If there are 2 tokens then the second token is the last name. (Perl, Java, or C/C++, language doesn't matter)

3) Eyeball the results. Look for names that don't fit this rule.

4) Using that example, create a new rule to handle that exception...

5) Rinse and Repeat

Eventually you will get a program that fixes all your data.

Reading an Excel file in python using pandas

This is much simple and easy way.

import pandas
df = pandas.read_excel(open('your_xls_xlsx_filename','rb'), sheetname='Sheet 1')
# or using sheet index starting 0
df = pandas.read_excel(open('your_xls_xlsx_filename','rb'), sheetname=2)

check out documentation full details http://pandas.pydata.org/pandas-docs/version/0.17.1/generated/pandas.read_excel.html

FutureWarning: The sheetname keyword is deprecated for newer Pandas versions, use sheet_name instead.

How to use parameters with HttpPost

To set parameters to your HttpPostRequest you can use BasicNameValuePair, something like this :

    HttpClient httpclient;
    HttpPost httpPost;
    ArrayList<NameValuePair> postParameters;
    httpclient = new DefaultHttpClient();
    httpPost = new HttpPost("your login link");


    postParameters = new ArrayList<NameValuePair>();
    postParameters.add(new BasicNameValuePair("param1", "param1_value"));
    postParameters.add(new BasicNameValuePair("param2", "param2_value"));

    httpPost.setEntity(new UrlEncodedFormEntity(postParameters, "UTF-8"));

    HttpResponse response = httpclient.execute(httpPost);

Type or namespace name does not exist

I am referencing Microsoft.CommerceServer.Runtime.Orders and experienced this error. This project is old and has Target framework .NET 2.0. In output I had this error:

C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v4.0.30319\Microsoft.Common.targets(1605,5): warning MSB3268: The primary reference "Microsoft.CommerceServer.Runtime" could not be resolved because it has an indirect dependency on the framework assembly "System.Core, Version=3.5.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089" which could not be resolved in the currently targeted framework. ".NETFramework,Version=v2.0". To resolve this problem, either remove the reference "Microsoft.CommerceServer.Runtime" or retarget your application to a framework version which contains "System.Core, Version=3.5.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089"

I simply changed the target framework to .NET 4 and now it builds.

Adding backslashes without escaping [Python]

printing a list can also cause this problem (im new in python, so it confused me a bit too):

>>>print ''.join(myList)

similarly:

>>>myList = ['\&']
>>>print myList
['\\&']
>>>print ''.join(myList)

Validate IPv4 address in Java

This is for Android, testing for IPv4 and IPv6

Note: the commonly used InetAddressUtils is deprecated. Use new InetAddress classes

public static Boolean isIPv4Address(String address) {
    if (address.isEmpty()) {
        return false;
    }
    try {
        Object res = InetAddress.getByName(address);
        return res instanceof Inet4Address || res instanceof Inet6Address;
    } catch (final UnknownHostException exception) {
        return false;
    }
}

Return array in a function

the answer may depend a bit on how you plan to use that function. For the simplest answer, lets decide that instead of an array, what you really want is a vector. Vectors are nice because the look for all the world like boring, ordinary values you can store in regular pointers. We'll look at other options and why you want them afterwards:

std::vector<int> fillarr( std::vector<int> arr ) {
    // do something
    return arr;
}

This will do exactly what you expect it to do. The upside is that std::vector takes care of making sure everything is handled cleanly. the downside is that this copies a very large amount of data, if your array is large. In fact it copies every element of the array twice. first it copies the vector so that the function can use it as a parameter. then it copies it again to return it to the caller. If you can handle managing the vector yourself, you can do things quite a bit more easily. (it may copy it a third time if the caller needs to store it in a variable of some sort to do more calculation)

It looks like what you're really trying to do is just populate a collection. if you don't have a specific reason to return a new instance of a collection, then don't. we can do it like this

void fillarr(std::vector<int> &  arr) {
    // modify arr
    // don't return anything
}

this way you get a reference to the array passed to the function, not a private copy of it. any changes you make to the parameter are seen by the caller. You could return a reference to it if you want, but that's not really a great idea, since it sort of implies that you're getting something different from what you passed.

If you really do need a new instance of the collection, but want to avoid having it on the stack (and all the copying that entails), you need to create some kind of contract for how that instance is handled. the easiest way to do that is to use a smart pointer, which keeps the referenced instance around as long as anyone is holding onto it. It goes away cleanly if it goes out of scope. That would look like this.

std::auto_ptr<std::vector<int> > fillarr( const std::vector<int> & arr) {
    std::auto_ptr<std::vector<int> > myArr(new std::vector<int>);
    // do stuff with arr and *myArr
    return myArr;
}

For the most part, using *myArr works identically to using a plain vanilla vector. This example also modifies the parameter list by adding the const keyword. Now you get a reference without copying it, but you can't modify it, so the caller knows it'll be the same as before the function got to it.

All of this is swell, but idiomatic c++ rarely works with collections as a whole. More normally, you will be using iterators over those collections. that would look something more like this

template <class Iterator>
Iterator fillarr(Iterator arrStart, Iterator arrEnd) {
    Iterator arrIter = arrStart;
    for(;arrIter <= arrEnd; arrIter++)
       ;// do something
    return arrStart;
}

Using it looks a bit odd if you're not used to seeing this style.

vector<int> arr;
vector<int>::iterator foo = fillarr(arr.begin(), arr.end());

foo now 'points to' the beginning of the modified arr.

What's really nice about this is that it works equally well on vector as on plain C arrays and many other types of collection, for example

int arr[100];
int *foo = fillarr(arr, arr+100);

Which now looks an awful lot like the plain pointer examples given elsewhere in this question.
