How to install Cmake C compiler and CXX compiler

Those errors :

"CMake Error: CMAKE_C_COMPILER not set, after EnableLanguage

CMake Error: CMAKE_CXX_COMPILER not set, after EnableLanguage"

means you haven't installed mingw32-base.

Go to http://sourceforge.net/projects/mingw/files/latest/download?source=files

and then make sure you select "mingw32-base"

Make sure you set up environment variables correctly in PATH section. "C:\MinGW\bin"

After that open CMake and Select Installation --> Delete Cache.

And click configure button again. I solved the problem this way, hope you solve the problem.

How to return a value from a Form in C#?

I raise an event in the the form setting the value and subscribe to that event in the form(s) that need to deal with the value change.

Why is "npm install" really slow?

Problem: NPM does not perform well if you do not keep it up to date. However, bleeding edge versions have been broken for me in the past.

Solution: As Kraang mentioned, use node version manager nvm, with its --lts flag

Install it:

curl -o- https://raw.githubusercontent.com/creationix/nvm/master/install.sh | bash

Then use this often to upgrade to the latest "long-term support" version of NPM:

nvm install --lts

Big caveat: you'll likely have to reinstall all packages when you get a new npm version.

Appending items to a list of lists in python

import csv
cols = [' V1', ' I1'] # define your columns here, check the spaces!
data = [[] for col in cols] # this creates a list of **different** lists, not a list of pointers to the same list like you did in [[]]*len(positions) 
with open('data.csv', 'r') as f:
    for rec in csv.DictReader(f):
        for l, col in zip(data, cols):
            l.append(float(rec[col]))
print data

# [[3.0, 3.0], [0.01, 0.01]]

What is the command to truncate a SQL Server log file?

For SQL Server 2008, the command is:

ALTER DATABASE ExampleDB SET RECOVERY SIMPLE
DBCC SHRINKFILE('ExampleDB_log', 0, TRUNCATEONLY)
ALTER DATABASE ExampleDB SET RECOVERY FULL

This reduced my 14GB log file down to 1MB.

String was not recognized as a valid DateTime " format dd/MM/yyyy"

You might need to specify the culture for that specific date format as in:

    Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentCulture = new CultureInfo("en-GB"); //dd/MM/yyyy

    this.Text="22/11/2009";

    DateTime date = DateTime.Parse(this.Text);

Javascript switch vs. if...else if...else

Other than syntax, a switch can be implemented using a tree which makes it O(log n), while a if/else has to be implemented with an O(n) procedural approach. More often they are both processed procedurally and the only difference is syntax, and moreover does it really matter -- unless you're statically typing 10k cases of if/else anyway?

Search File And Find Exact Match And Print Line?

It's very easy:

numb = raw_input('Input Line: ')
fiIn = open('file.txt').readlines()
for lines in fiIn:
   if numb == lines[0]:
      print lines

clear javascript console in Google Chrome

Update: As of November 6, 2012, console.clear() is now available in Chrome Canary.


If you type clear() into the console it clears it.

I don't think there is a way to programmatically do it, as it could be misused. (console is cleared by some web page, end user can't access error information)

one possible workaround:

in the console type window.clear = clear, then you'll be able to use clear in any script on your page.

Changing element style attribute dynamically using JavaScript

Surprised that I did not see the below query selector way solution,

document.querySelector('#xyz').style.paddingTop = "10px"

CSSStyleDeclaration solutions, an example of the accepted answer

document.getElementById('xyz').style.paddingTop = "10px";

What is unexpected T_VARIABLE in PHP?

There might be a semicolon or bracket missing a line before your pasted line.

It seems fine to me; every string is allowed as an array index.

Assert equals between 2 Lists in Junit

This is a legacy answer, suitable for JUnit 4.3 and below. The modern version of JUnit includes a built-in readable failure messages in the assertThat method. Prefer other answers on this question, if possible.

List<E> a = resultFromTest();
List<E> expected = Arrays.asList(new E(), new E(), ...);
assertTrue("Expected 'a' and 'expected' to be equal."+
            "\n  'a'        = "+a+
            "\n  'expected' = "+expected, 
            expected.equals(a));

For the record, as @Paul mentioned in his comment to this answer, two Lists are equal:

if and only if the specified object is also a list, both lists have the same size, and all corresponding pairs of elements in the two lists are equal. (Two elements e1 and e2 are equal if (e1==null ? e2==null : e1.equals(e2)).) In other words, two lists are defined to be equal if they contain the same elements in the same order. This definition ensures that the equals method works properly across different implementations of the List interface.

See the JavaDocs of the List interface.

maven-dependency-plugin (goals "copy-dependencies", "unpack") is not supported by m2e

This is a problem of M2E for Eclipse M2E plugin execution not covered.

To solve this problem, all you got to do is to map the lifecycle it doesn't recognize and instruct M2E to execute it.

You should add this after your plugins, inside the build. This will remove the error and make M2E recognize the goal copy-depencies of maven-dependency-plugin and make the POM work as expected, copying dependencies to folder every time Eclipse build it. If you just want to ignore the error, then you change <execute /> for <ignore />. No need for enclosing your maven-dependency-plugin into pluginManagement, as suggested before.

Creating a range of dates in Python

Pandas is great for time series in general, and has direct support for date ranges.

For example pd.date_range():

import pandas as pd
from datetime import datetime

datelist = pd.date_range(datetime.today(), periods=100).tolist()

It also has lots of options to make life easier. For example if you only wanted weekdays, you would just swap in bdate_range.

See date range documentation

In addition it fully supports pytz timezones and can smoothly span spring/autumn DST shifts.

EDIT by OP:

If you need actual python datetimes, as opposed to Pandas timestamps:

import pandas as pd
from datetime import datetime

pd.date_range(end = datetime.today(), periods = 100).to_pydatetime().tolist()

#OR

pd.date_range(start="2018-09-09",end="2020-02-02")

This uses the "end" parameter to match the original question, but if you want descending dates:

pd.date_range(datetime.today(), periods=100).to_pydatetime().tolist()

Add JsonArray to JsonObject

Just try below a simple solution:

JsonObject body=new JsonObject();
body.add("orders", (JsonElement) orders);

whenever my JSON request is like:

{
      "role": "RT",
      "orders": [
        {
          "order_id": "ORDER201908aPq9Gs",
          "cart_id": 164444,
          "affiliate_id": 0,
          "orm_order_status": 9,
          "status_comments": "IC DUE - Auto moved to Instruction Call Due after 48hrs",
          "status_date": "2020-04-15",
        }
      ]
    }

Enter triggers button click

My situation has two Submit buttons within the form element: Update and Delete. The Delete button deletes an image and the Update button updates the database with the text fields in the form.

Because the Delete button was first in the form, it was the default button on Enter key. Not what I wanted. The user would expect to be able to hit Enter after changing some text fields.

I found my answer to setting the default button here:

<form action="/action_page.php" method="get" id="form1">
  First name: <input type="text" name="fname"><br>
  Last name: <input type="text" name="lname"><br>
</form>
<button type="submit" form="form1" value="Submit">Submit</button>

Without using any script, I defined the form that each button belongs to using the <button> form="bla" attribute. I set the Delete button to a form that doesn't exist and set the Update button I wanted to trigger on the Enter key to the form that the user would be in when entering text.

This is the only thing that has worked for me so far.

Date formatting in WPF datagrid

This is a very old question, but I found a new solution, so I wrote about it.

First of all, is this way of solution possible while using AutoGenerateColumns?

Yes, that can be done with AttachedProperty as follows.

<DataGrid AutoGenerateColumns="True" 
   local:DataGridOperation.DateTimeFormatAutoGenerate="yy-MM-dd"
   ItemsSource="{Binding}" />

AttachedProperty

There are two AttachedProperty defined that allow you to specify two formats. DateTimeFormatAutoGenerate for DateTime and TimeSpanFormatAutoGenerate for TimeSpan.

class DataGridOperation
{
    public static string GetDateTimeFormatAutoGenerate(DependencyObject obj) => (string)obj.GetValue(DateTimeFormatAutoGenerateProperty);
    public static void SetDateTimeFormatAutoGenerate(DependencyObject obj, string value) => obj.SetValue(DateTimeFormatAutoGenerateProperty, value);
    public static readonly DependencyProperty DateTimeFormatAutoGenerateProperty =
        DependencyProperty.RegisterAttached("DateTimeFormatAutoGenerate", typeof(string), typeof(DataGridOperation),
            new PropertyMetadata(null, (d, e) => AddEventHandlerOnGenerating<DateTime>(d, e)));

    public static string GetTimeSpanFormatAutoGenerate(DependencyObject obj) => (string)obj.GetValue(TimeSpanFormatAutoGenerateProperty);
    public static void SetTimeSpanFormatAutoGenerate(DependencyObject obj, string value) => obj.SetValue(TimeSpanFormatAutoGenerateProperty, value);
    public static readonly DependencyProperty TimeSpanFormatAutoGenerateProperty =
        DependencyProperty.RegisterAttached("TimeSpanFormatAutoGenerate", typeof(string), typeof(DataGridOperation),
            new PropertyMetadata(null, (d, e) => AddEventHandlerOnGenerating<TimeSpan>(d, e)));

    private static void AddEventHandlerOnGenerating<T>(DependencyObject d, DependencyPropertyChangedEventArgs e)
    {
        if (!(d is DataGrid dGrid))
            return;

        if ((e.NewValue is string format))
            dGrid.AutoGeneratingColumn += (o, e) => AddFormat_OnGenerating<T>(e, format);
    }

    private static void AddFormat_OnGenerating<T>(DataGridAutoGeneratingColumnEventArgs e, string format)
    {
        if (e.PropertyType == typeof(T))
            (e.Column as DataGridTextColumn).Binding.StringFormat = format;
    }
}

Reduce left and right margins in matplotlib plot

Sometimes, the plt.tight_layout() doesn't give me the best view or the view I want. Then why don't plot with arbitrary margin first and do fixing the margin after plot? Since we got nice WYSIWYG from there.

import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

fig,ax = plt.subplots(figsize=(8,8))

plt.plot([2,5,7,8,5,3,5,7,])
plt.show()

Change border and spacing GUI here

Then paste settings into margin function to make it permanent:

fig,ax = plt.subplots(figsize=(8,8))

plt.plot([2,5,7,8,5,3,5,7,])
fig.subplots_adjust(
    top=0.981,
    bottom=0.049,
    left=0.042,
    right=0.981,
    hspace=0.2,
    wspace=0.2
)
plt.show()

How to perform mouseover function in Selenium WebDriver using Java?

This code works perfectly well:

 Actions builder = new Actions(driver);
 WebElement element = driver.findElement(By.linkText("Put your text here"));
 builder.moveToElement(element).build().perform();

After the mouse over, you can then go on to perform the next action you want on the revealed information

JavaScript for detecting browser language preference

If you are developing a Chrome App / Extension use the chrome.i18n API.

chrome.i18n.getAcceptLanguages(function(languages) {
  console.log(languages);
  // ["en-AU", "en", "en-US"]
});

How to change PHP version used by composer

Another possibility to make composer think you're using the correct version of PHP is to add to the config section of a composer.json file a platform option, like this:

"config": {
    "platform": {
        "php": "<ver>"
    }
},

Where <ver> is the PHP version of your choice.

Snippet from the docs:

Lets you fake platform packages (PHP and extensions) so that you can emulate a production env or define your target platform in the config. Example: {"php": "7.0.3", "ext-something": "4.0.3"}.

Truth value of a Series is ambiguous. Use a.empty, a.bool(), a.item(), a.any() or a.all()

One minor thing, which wasted my time.

Put the conditions(if comparing using " = ", " != ") in parenthesis, failing to do so also raises this exception. This will work

df[(some condition) conditional operator (some conditions)]

This will not

df[some condition conditional-operator some condition]

Nested attributes unpermitted parameters

Seems there is a change in handling of attribute protection and now you must whitelist params in the controller (instead of attr_accessible in the model) because the former optional gem strong_parameters became part of the Rails Core.

This should look something like this:

class PeopleController < ActionController::Base
  def create
    Person.create(person_params)
  end

private
  def person_params
    params.require(:person).permit(:name, :age)
  end
end

So params.require(:model).permit(:fields) would be used

and for nested attributes something like

params.require(:person).permit(:name, :age, pets_attributes: [:id, :name, :category])

Some more details can be found in the Ruby edge API docs and strong_parameters on github or here

Python Selenium accessing HTML source

You need to access the page_source property:

from selenium import webdriver

browser = webdriver.Firefox()
browser.get("http://example.com")

html_source = browser.page_source
if "whatever" in html_source:
    # do something
else:
    # do something else

PowerShell script to return members of multiple security groups

This is cleaner and will put in a csv.

Import-Module ActiveDirectory

$Groups = (Get-AdGroup -filter * | Where {$_.name -like "**"} | select name -expandproperty name)


$Table = @()

$Record = [ordered]@{
"Group Name" = ""
"Name" = ""
"Username" = ""
}



Foreach ($Group in $Groups)
{

$Arrayofmembers = Get-ADGroupMember -identity $Group | select name,samaccountname

foreach ($Member in $Arrayofmembers)
{
$Record."Group Name" = $Group
$Record."Name" = $Member.name
$Record."UserName" = $Member.samaccountname
$objRecord = New-Object PSObject -property $Record
$Table += $objrecord

}

}

$Table | export-csv "C:\temp\SecurityGroups.csv" -NoTypeInformation

SVG Positioning

There are two ways to group multiple SVG shapes and position the group:

The first to use <g> with transform attribute as Aaron wrote. But you can't just use a x attribute on the <g> element.

The other way is to use nested <svg> element.

<svg id="parent">
   <svg id="group1" x="10">
      <!-- some shapes -->
   </svg>
</svg>

In this way, the #group1 svg is nested in #parent, and the x=10 is relative to the parent svg. However, you can't use transform attribute on <svg> element, which is quite the contrary of <g> element.

Specify the from user when sending email using the mail command

Most people need to change two values when trying to correctly forge the from address on an email. First is the from address and the second is the orig-to address. Many of the solutions offered online only change one of these values.

If as root, I try a simple mail command to send myself an email it might look like this. echo "test" | mail -s "a test" [email protected]

And the associated logs: Feb 6 09:02:51 myserver postfix/qmgr[28875]: B10322269D: from=<[email protected]>, size=437, nrcpt=1 (queue active) Feb 6 09:02:52 myserver postfix/smtp[19848]: B10322269D: to=<[email protected]>, relay=myMTA[x.x.x.x]:25, delay=0.34, delays=0.1/0/0.11/0.13, dsn=2.0.0, status=sent (250 Ok 0000014b5f678593-a0e399ef-a801-4655-ad6b-19864a220f38-000000)

Trying to change the from address with -- echo "test" | mail -s "a test" [email protected] -- [email protected]

This changes the orig-to value but not the from value: Feb 6 09:09:09 myserver postfix/qmgr[28875]: 6BD362269D: from=<[email protected]>, size=474, nrcpt=2 (queue active) Feb 6 09:09:09 myserver postfix/smtp[20505]: 6BD362269D: to=<me@noone>, orig_to=<[email protected]>, relay=myMTA[x.x.x.x]:25, delay=0.31, delays=0.06/0/0.09/0.15, dsn=2.0.0, status=sent (250 Ok 0000014b5f6d48e2-a98b70be-fb02-44e0-8eb3-e4f5b1820265-000000)

Next trying it with a -r and a -- to adjust the from and orig-to. echo "test" | mail -s "a test" -r [email protected] [email protected] -- [email protected]

And the logs: Feb 6 09:17:11 myserver postfix/qmgr[28875]: E3B972264C: from=<[email protected]>, size=459, nrcpt=2 (queue active) Feb 6 09:17:11 myserver postfix/smtp[21559]: E3B972264C: to=<[email protected]>, orig_to=<[email protected]>, relay=myMTA[x.x.x.x]:25, delay=1.1, delays=0.56/0.24/0.11/0.17, dsn=2.0.0, status=sent (250 Ok 0000014b5f74a2c0-c06709f0-4e8d-4d7e-9abf-dbcea2bee2ea-000000)

This is how it's working for me. Hope this helps someone.

How to set ObjectId as a data type in mongoose

Unlike traditional RBDMs, mongoDB doesn't allow you to define any random field as the primary key, the _id field MUST exist for all standard documents.

For this reason, it doesn't make sense to create a separate uuid field.

In mongoose, the ObjectId type is used not to create a new uuid, rather it is mostly used to reference other documents.

Here is an example:

var mongoose = require('mongoose');

var Schema = mongoose.Schema,
    ObjectId = Schema.ObjectId;
var Schema_Product = new Schema({
    categoryId  : ObjectId, // a product references a category _id with type ObjectId
    title       : String,
    price       : Number
});

As you can see, it wouldn't make much sense to populate categoryId with a ObjectId.

However, if you do want a nicely named uuid field, mongoose provides virtual properties that allow you to proxy (reference) a field.

Check it out:

var mongoose = require('mongoose');

var Schema = mongoose.Schema,
    ObjectId = Schema.ObjectId;
var Schema_Category = new Schema({
    title       : String,
    sortIndex   : String
});

Schema_Category.virtual('categoryId').get(function() {
    return this._id;
});

So now, whenever you call category.categoryId, mongoose just returns the _id instead.

You can also create a "set" method so that you can set virtual properties, check out this link for more info

403 Forbidden vs 401 Unauthorized HTTP responses

TL;DR

  • 401: A refusal that has to do with authentication
  • 403: A refusal that has NOTHING to do with authentication

Practical Examples

If apache requires authentication (via .htaccess), and you hit Cancel, it will respond with a 401 Authorization Required

If nginx finds a file, but has no access rights (user/group) to read/access it, it will respond with 403 Forbidden

RFC (2616 Section 10)

401 Unauthorized (10.4.2)

Meaning 1: Need to authenticate

The request requires user authentication. ...

Meaning 2: Authentication insufficient

... If the request already included Authorization credentials, then the 401 response indicates that authorization has been refused for those credentials. ...

403 Forbidden (10.4.4)

Meaning: Unrelated to authentication

... Authorization will not help ...

More details:

  • The server understood the request, but is refusing to fulfill it.

  • It SHOULD describe the reason for the refusal in the entity

  • The status code 404 (Not Found) can be used instead

    (If the server wants to keep this information from client)

how to upload file using curl with php

Use:

if (function_exists('curl_file_create')) { // php 5.5+
  $cFile = curl_file_create($file_name_with_full_path);
} else { // 
  $cFile = '@' . realpath($file_name_with_full_path);
}
$post = array('extra_info' => '123456','file_contents'=> $cFile);
$ch = curl_init();
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL,$target_url);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POST,1);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $post);
$result=curl_exec ($ch);
curl_close ($ch);

You can also refer:

http://blog.derakkilgo.com/2009/06/07/send-a-file-via-post-with-curl-and-php/

Important hint for PHP 5.5+:

Now we should use https://wiki.php.net/rfc/curl-file-upload but if you still want to use this deprecated approach then you need to set curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_SAFE_UPLOAD, false);

Center an item with position: relative

Much simpler:

position: relative; 
left: 50%;
transform: translateX(-50%);

You are now centered in your parent element. You can do that vertically too.

Avoid line break between html elements

CSS for that td: white-space: nowrap; should solve it.

How to VueJS router-link active style

The :active pseudo-class is not the same as adding a class to style the element.

The :active CSS pseudo-class represents an element (such as a button) that is being activated by the user. When using a mouse, "activation" typically starts when the mouse button is pressed down and ends when it is released.

What we are looking for is a class, such as .active, which we can use to style the navigation item.

For a clearer example of the difference between :active and .active see the following snippet:

_x000D_
_x000D_
li:active {_x000D_
  background-color: #35495E;_x000D_
}_x000D_
_x000D_
li.active {_x000D_
  background-color: #41B883;_x000D_
}
_x000D_
<ul>_x000D_
  <li>:active (pseudo-class) - Click me!</li>_x000D_
  <li class="active">.active (class)</li>_x000D_
</ul>
_x000D_
_x000D_
_x000D_


Vue-Router

vue-router automatically applies two active classes, .router-link-active and .router-link-exact-active, to the <router-link> component.


router-link-active

This class is applied automatically to the <router-link> component when its target route is matched.

The way this works is by using an inclusive match behavior. For example, <router-link to="/foo"> will get this class applied as long as the current path starts with /foo/ or is /foo.

So, if we had <router-link to="/foo"> and <router-link to="/foo/bar">, both components would get the router-link-active class when the path is /foo/bar.


router-link-exact-active

This class is applied automatically to the <router-link> component when its target route is an exact match. Take into consideration that both classes, router-link-active and router-link-exact-active, will be applied to the component in this case.

Using the same example, if we had <router-link to="/foo"> and <router-link to="/foo/bar">, the router-link-exact-activeclass would only be applied to <router-link to="/foo/bar"> when the path is /foo/bar.


The exact prop

Lets say we have <router-link to="/">, what will happen is that this component will be active for every route. This may not be something that we want, so we can use the exact prop like so: <router-link to="/" exact>. Now the component will only get the active class applied when it is an exact match at /.


CSS

We can use these classes to style our element, like so:

 nav li:hover,
 nav li.router-link-active,
 nav li.router-link-exact-active {
   background-color: indianred;
   cursor: pointer;
 }

The <router-link> tag was changed using the tag prop, <router-link tag="li" />.


Change default classes globally

If we wish to change the default classes provided by vue-router globally, we can do so by passing some options to the vue-router instance like so:

const router = new VueRouter({
  routes,
  linkActiveClass: "active",
  linkExactActiveClass: "exact-active",
})

Change default classes per component instance (<router-link>)

If instead we want to change the default classes per <router-link> and not globally, we can do so by using the active-class and exact-active-class attributes like so:

<router-link to="/foo" active-class="active">foo</router-link>

<router-link to="/bar" exact-active-class="exact-active">bar</router-link>

v-slot API

Vue Router 3.1.0+ offers low level customization through a scoped slot. This comes handy when we wish to style the wrapper element, like a list element <li>, but still keep the navigation logic in the anchor element <a>.

<router-link
  to="/foo"
  v-slot="{ href, route, navigate, isActive, isExactActive }"
>
  <li
    :class="[isActive && 'router-link-active', isExactActive && 'router-link-exact-active']"
  >
    <a :href="href" @click="navigate">{{ route.fullPath }}</a>
  </li>
</router-link>

Subset of rows containing NA (missing) values in a chosen column of a data frame

Never use =='NA' to test for missing values. Use is.na() instead. This should do it:

new_DF <- DF[rowSums(is.na(DF)) > 0,]

or in case you want to check a particular column, you can also use

new_DF <- DF[is.na(DF$Var),]

In case you have NA character values, first run

Df[Df=='NA'] <- NA

to replace them with missing values.

How to change the date format from MM/DD/YYYY to YYYY-MM-DD in PL/SQL?

To convert a DATE column to another format, just use TO_CHAR() with the desired format, then convert it back to a DATE type:

SELECT TO_DATE(TO_CHAR(date_column, 'DD-MM-YYYY'), 'DD-MM-YYYY') from my_table

'sprintf': double precision in C

The problem is with sprintf

sprintf(aa,"%lf",a);

%lf says to interpet "a" as a "long double" (16 bytes) but it is actually a "double" (8 bytes). Use this instead:

sprintf(aa, "%f", a);

Asynchronously wait for Task<T> to complete with timeout

Here's a extension method version that incorporates cancellation of the timeout when the original task completes as suggested by Andrew Arnott in a comment to his answer.

public static async Task<TResult> TimeoutAfter<TResult>(this Task<TResult> task, TimeSpan timeout) {

    using (var timeoutCancellationTokenSource = new CancellationTokenSource()) {

        var completedTask = await Task.WhenAny(task, Task.Delay(timeout, timeoutCancellationTokenSource.Token));
        if (completedTask == task) {
            timeoutCancellationTokenSource.Cancel();
            return await task;  // Very important in order to propagate exceptions
        } else {

Why do Sublime Text 3 Themes not affect the sidebar?

You are looking for a Sublime UI Theme, which modifies Sublime's User Interface (e.g.: side bar). It's different from a Color Theme/Scheme, which modifies only the code part of Sublime's window. I tested a lot of UI Themes and the one I liked the most was Theme - Soda. You can install it using Sublime's Package Control. To enable it, go to Preferences >> Settings - User and add this line:

"theme": "Soda Dark 3.sublime-theme",

Here is a printscreen of my Sublime Text 3 with Soda Dark UI Theme and Twilight default Color Scheme:

Calculate row means on subset of columns

Starting with your data frame DF, you could use the data.table package:

library(data.table)

## EDIT: As suggested by @MichaelChirico, setDT converts a
## data.frame to a data.table by reference and is preferred
## if you don't mind losing the data.frame
setDT(DF)

# EDIT: To get the column name 'Mean':

DF[, .(Mean = rowMeans(.SD)), by = ID]

#      ID     Mean
# [1,]  A 3.666667
# [2,]  B 4.333333
# [3,]  C 3.333333
# [4,]  D 4.666667
# [5,]  E 4.333333

How do I create a transparent Activity on Android?

I achieved it on 2.3.3 by just adding android:theme="@android:style/Theme.Translucent" in the activity tag in the manifest.

I don't know about lower versions...

Initializing entire 2D array with one value

You get this behavior, because int array [ROW][COLUMN] = {1}; does not mean "set all items to one". Let me try to explain how this works step by step.

The explicit, overly clear way of initializing your array would be like this:

#define ROW 2
#define COLUMN 2

int array [ROW][COLUMN] =
{
  {0, 0},
  {0, 0}
};

However, C allows you to leave out some of the items in an array (or struct/union). You could for example write:

int array [ROW][COLUMN] =
{
  {1, 2}
};

This means, initialize the first elements to 1 and 2, and the rest of the elements "as if they had static storage duration". There is a rule in C saying that all objects of static storage duration, that are not explicitly initialized by the programmer, must be set to zero.

So in the above example, the first row gets set to 1,2 and the next to 0,0 since we didn't give them any explicit values.

Next, there is a rule in C allowing lax brace style. The first example could as well be written as

int array [ROW][COLUMN] = {0, 0, 0, 0};

although of course this is poor style, it is harder to read and understand. But this rule is convenient, because it allows us to write

int array [ROW][COLUMN] = {0};

which means: "initialize the very first column in the first row to 0, and all other items as if they had static storage duration, ie set them to zero."

therefore, if you attempt

int array [ROW][COLUMN] = {1};

it means "initialize the very first column in the first row to 1 and set all other items to zero".

Get Absolute URL from Relative path (refactored method)

When you want to generate URL from your Business Logic layer, you do not have the flexibility of using ASP.NET Web Form's Page class/ Control's ResolveUrl(..) etc. Moreover, you may need to generate URL from ASP.NET MVC controller too where you not only miss the Web Form's ResolveUrl(..) method, but also you cannot get the Url.Action(..) even though Url.Action takes only Controller name and Action name, not the relative url.

I tried using

var uri = new Uri(absoluteUrl, relativeUrl)

approach, but there is a problem too. If the web application is hosted in IIS virtual directory, where the url of the app is like this : http://localhost/MyWebApplication1/, and the relative url is "/myPage" then the relative url is resolved as "http://localhost/MyPage" which is another problem.

Therefore, in order to overcome such problems, I have written a UrlUtils class which can work from a class library. So, it wont depend on Page class but it depends on ASP.NET MVC. So, if you dont mind adding reference to MVC dll to your class library project then my class will work smoothly. I have tested in IIS virtual directory scenario where the web application url is like this : http://localhost/MyWebApplication/MyPage. I realized that, sometimes we need to make sure that the Absolute url is SSL url or non SSL url. So, I wrote my class library supporting this option. I have restricted this class library so that the relative url can be absolute url or a relative url that starts with '~/'.

Using this library, I can call

string absoluteUrl = UrlUtils.MapUrl("~/Contact");

Returns : http://localhost/Contact when the page url is : http://localhost/Home/About

Returns : http://localhost/MyWebApplication/Contact when the page url is : http://localhost/MyWebApplication/Home/About

  string absoluteUrl = UrlUtils.MapUrl("~/Contact", UrlUtils.UrlMapOptions.AlwaysSSL);

Returns : **https**://localhost/MyWebApplication/Contact when the page url is : http://localhost/MyWebApplication/Home/About

Here is my class Library :

 public class UrlUtils
    {
        public enum UrlMapOptions
        {
            AlwaysNonSSL,
            AlwaysSSL,
            BasedOnCurrentScheme
        }

        public static string MapUrl(string relativeUrl, UrlMapOptions option = UrlMapOptions.BasedOnCurrentScheme)
        {
            if (relativeUrl.StartsWith("http://", StringComparison.OrdinalIgnoreCase) ||
                relativeUrl.StartsWith("https://", StringComparison.OrdinalIgnoreCase))
                return relativeUrl;

            if (!relativeUrl.StartsWith("~/"))
                throw new Exception("The relative url must start with ~/");

            UrlHelper theHelper = new UrlHelper(HttpContext.Current.Request.RequestContext);

            string theAbsoluteUrl = HttpContext.Current.Request.Url.GetLeftPart(UriPartial.Authority) +
                                           theHelper.Content(relativeUrl);

            switch (option)
            {
                case UrlMapOptions.AlwaysNonSSL:
                    {
                        return theAbsoluteUrl.StartsWith("https://", StringComparison.OrdinalIgnoreCase)
                            ? string.Format("http://{0}", theAbsoluteUrl.Remove(0, 8))
                            : theAbsoluteUrl;
                    }
                case UrlMapOptions.AlwaysSSL:
                    {
                        return theAbsoluteUrl.StartsWith("https://", StringComparison.OrdinalIgnoreCase)
                            ? theAbsoluteUrl
                            : string.Format("https://{0}", theAbsoluteUrl.Remove(0, 7));
                    }
            }

            return theAbsoluteUrl;
        }
    }   

Changing width property of a :before css selector using JQuery

How to remove all leading zeroes in a string

Similar to another suggestion, except will not obliterate actual zero:

if (ltrim($str, '0') != '') {
    $str = ltrim($str, '0');

}

Or as was suggested (as of PHP 5.3), shorthand ternary operator can be used:

$str = ltrim($str, '0') ?: '0'; 

How to align matching values in two columns in Excel, and bring along associated values in other columns

Maven in Eclipse: step by step installation

The latest version of Eclipse (Luna) and Spring Tool Suite (STS) come pre-packaged with support for Maven, GIT and Java 8.

This IP, site or mobile application is not authorized to use this API key

In addition to the API key that is assigned to you, Google also verifies the source of the incoming request by looking at either the REFERRER or the IP address. To run an example in curl, create a new Server Key in Google APIs console. While creating it, you must provide the IP address of the server. In this case, it will be your local IP address. Once you have created a Server Key and whitelisted your IP address, you should be able to use the new API key in curl.

My guess is you probably created your API key as a Browser Key which does not require you to whitelist your IP address, but instead uses the REFERRER HTTP header tag for validation. curl doesn't send this tag by default, so Google was failing to validate your request.

What is the difference between square brackets and parentheses in a regex?

Your team's advice is almost right, except for the mistake that was made. Once you find out why, you will never forget it. Take a look at this mistake.

/^(7|8|9)\d{9}$/

What this does:

  • ^ and $ denotes anchored matches, which asserts that the subpattern in between these anchors are the entire match. The string will only match if the subpattern matches the entirety of it, not just a section.
  • () denotes a capturing group.
  • 7|8|9 denotes matching either of 7, 8, or 9. It does this with alternations, which is what the pipe operator | does — alternating between alternations. This backtracks between alternations: If the first alternation is not matched, the engine has to return before the pointer location moved during the match of the alternation, to continue matching the next alternation; Whereas the character class can advance sequentially. See this match on a regex engine with optimizations disabled:
Pattern: (r|f)at
Match string: carat

alternations

Pattern: [rf]at
Match string: carat

class

  • \d{9} matches nine digits. \d is a shorthanded metacharacter, which matches any digits.
/^[7|8|9][\d]{9}$/

Look at what it does:

  • ^ and $ denotes anchored matches as well.
  • [7|8|9] is a character class. Any characters from the list 7, |, 8, |, or 9 can be matched, thus the | was added in incorrectly. This matches without backtracking.
  • [\d] is a character class that inhabits the metacharacter \d. The combination of the use of a character class and a single metacharacter is a bad idea, by the way, since the layer of abstraction can slow down the match, but this is only an implementation detail and only applies to a few of regex implementations. JavaScript is not one, but it does make the subpattern slightly longer.
  • {9} indicates the previous single construct is repeated nine times in total.

The optimal regex is /^[789]\d{9}$/, because /^(7|8|9)\d{9}$/ captures unnecessarily which imposes a performance decrease on most regex implementations ( happens to be one, considering the question uses keyword var in code, this probably is JavaScript). The use of which runs on PCRE for preg matching will optimize away the lack of backtracking, however we're not in PHP either, so using classes [] instead of alternations | gives performance bonus as the match does not backtrack, and therefore both matches and fails faster than using your previous regular expression.

checking for typeof error in JS

var myError = new Error('foo');
myError instanceof Error // true
var myString = "Whatever";
myString instanceof Error // false

Only problem with this is

myError instanceof Object // true

An alternative to this would be to use the constructor property.

myError.constructor === Object // false
myError.constructor === String // false
myError.constructor === Boolean // false
myError.constructor === Symbol // false
myError.constructor === Function // false
myError.constructor === Error // true

Although it should be noted that this match is very specific, for example:

myError.constructor === TypeError // false

How do I configure Apache 2 to run Perl CGI scripts?

For those like me who have been groping your way through much-more-than-you-need-to-know-right-now tutorials and Docs, and just want to see the thing working for starters, I found the only thing I had to do was add:

AddHandler cgi-script .pl .cgi

To my configuration file.

http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/mod_mime.html#addhandler

For my situation this works best as I can put my perl script anywhere I want, and just add the .pl or .cgi extension.

Dave Sherohman's answer mentions the AddHandler solution also.

Of course you still must make sure the permissions/ownership on your script are set correctly, especially that the script will be executable. Take note of who the "user" is when run from an http request - eg, www or www-data.

SELECT 1.0*MyInt1/MyInt2

Or:

SELECT (1.0*MyInt1)/MyInt2

Using Transactions or SaveChanges(false) and AcceptAllChanges()?

If you are using EF6 (Entity Framework 6+), this has changed for database calls to SQL.
See: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/data/dn456843.aspx

use context.Database.BeginTransaction.

From MSDN:

using (var context = new BloggingContext()) 
{ 
    using (var dbContextTransaction = context.Database.BeginTransaction()) 
    { 
        try 
        { 
            context.Database.ExecuteSqlCommand( 
                @"UPDATE Blogs SET Rating = 5" + 
                    " WHERE Name LIKE '%Entity Framework%'" 
                ); 

            var query = context.Posts.Where(p => p.Blog.Rating >= 5); 
            foreach (var post in query) 
            { 
                post.Title += "[Cool Blog]"; 
            } 

            context.SaveChanges(); 

            dbContextTransaction.Commit(); 
        } 
        catch (Exception) 
        { 
            dbContextTransaction.Rollback(); //Required according to MSDN article 
            throw; //Not in MSDN article, but recommended so the exception still bubbles up
        } 
    } 
}

Error: [ng:areq] from angular controller

Check the name of your angular module...what is the name of your module in your app.js?

In your TransportersController, you have:

angular.module('mean.transporters')

and in your TransportersService you have:

angular.module('transporterService', [])

You probably want to reference the same module in each:

angular.module('myApp')

how does Request.QueryString work?

The HttpRequest class represents the request made to the server and has various properties associated with it, such as QueryString.

The ASP.NET run-time parses a request to the server and populates this information for you.

Read HttpRequest Properties for a list of all the potential properties that get populated on you behalf by ASP.NET.

Note: not all properties will be populated, for instance if your request has no query string, then the QueryString will be null/empty. So you should check to see if what you expect to be in the query string is actually there before using it like this:

if (!String.IsNullOrEmpty(Request.QueryString["pID"]))
{
    // Query string value is there so now use it
    int thePID = Convert.ToInt32(Request.QueryString["pID"]);
}

How do I implement interfaces in python?

Using the abc module for abstract base classes seems to do the trick.

from abc import ABCMeta, abstractmethod

class IInterface:
    __metaclass__ = ABCMeta

    @classmethod
    def version(self): return "1.0"
    @abstractmethod
    def show(self): raise NotImplementedError

class MyServer(IInterface):
    def show(self):
        print 'Hello, World 2!'

class MyBadServer(object):
    def show(self):
        print 'Damn you, world!'


class MyClient(object):

    def __init__(self, server):
        if not isinstance(server, IInterface): raise Exception('Bad interface')
        if not IInterface.version() == '1.0': raise Exception('Bad revision')

        self._server = server


    def client_show(self):
        self._server.show()


# This call will fail with an exception
try:
    x = MyClient(MyBadServer)
except Exception as exc:
    print 'Failed as it should!'

# This will pass with glory
MyClient(MyServer()).client_show()

WPF Binding to parent DataContext

I dont know about XamGrid but that's what i'll do with a standard wpf DataGrid:

<DataGrid>
    <DataGrid.Columns>
        <DataGridTemplateColumn>
            <DataGridTemplateColumn.CellTemplate>
                <DataTemplate>
                    <TextBlock Text="{Binding DataContext.MyProperty, RelativeSource={RelativeSource AncestorType=MyUserControl}}"/>
                </DataTemplate>
            </DataGridTemplateColumn.CellTemplate>
            <DataGridTemplateColumn.CellEditingTemplate>
                <DataTemplate>
                    <TextBox Text="{Binding DataContext.MyProperty, RelativeSource={RelativeSource AncestorType=MyUserControl}}"/>
                </DataTemplate>
            </DataGridTemplateColumn.CellEditingTemplate>
        </DataGridTemplateColumn>
    </DataGrid.Columns>
</DataGrid>

Since the TextBlock and the TextBox specified in the cell templates will be part of the visual tree, you can walk up and find whatever control you need.

Disable cache for some images

Let's add another solution one to the bunch.

Adding a unique string at the end is a perfect solution.

example.jpg?646413154

Following solution extends this method and provides both the caching capability and fetch a new version when the image is updated.

When the image is updated, the filemtime will be changed.

<?php
$filename = "path/to/images/example.jpg";
$filemtime = filemtime($filename);
?>

Now output the image:

<img src="images/example.jpg?<?php echo $filemtime; ?>" >

google chrome extension :: console.log() from background page?

It's an old post, with already good answers, but I add my two bits. I don't like to use console.log, I'd rather use a logger that logs to the console, or wherever I want, so I have a module defining a log function a bit like this one

function log(...args) {
  console.log(...args);
  chrome.extension.getBackgroundPage().console.log(...args);
}

When I call log("this is my log") it will write the message both in the popup console and the background console.

The advantage is to be able to change the behaviour of the logs without having to change the code (like disabling logs for production, etc...)

Android ListView with different layouts for each row

In your custom array adapter, you override the getView() method, as you presumably familiar with. Then all you have to do is use a switch statement or an if statement to return a certain custom View depending on the position argument passed to the getView method. Android is clever in that it will only give you a convertView of the appropriate type for your position/row; you do not need to check it is of the correct type. You can help Android with this by overriding the getItemViewType() and getViewTypeCount() methods appropriately.

Android refresh current activity

In an activity you can call recreate() to "recreate" the activity (API 11+)

java.lang.IllegalStateException: Fragment not attached to Activity

Sometimes this exception is caused by a bug in the support library implementation. Recently I had to downgrade from 26.1.0 to 25.4.0 to get rid of it.

grunt: command not found when running from terminal

Also on OS X (El Capitan), been having this same issue all morning.

I was running the command "npm install -g grunt-cli" command from within a directory where my project was.

I tried again from my home directory (i.e. 'cd ~') and it installed as before, except now I can run the grunt command and it is recognised.

        </shape>
    </item>

</layer-list>

curl: (60) SSL certificate problem: unable to get local issuer certificate

So far, I've seen this issue happen within corporate networks because of two reasons, one or both of which may be happening in your case:

  1. Because of the way network proxies work, they have their own SSL certificates, thereby altering the certificates that curl sees. Many or most enterprise networks force you to use these proxies.
  2. Some antivirus programs running on client PCs also act similarly to an HTTPS proxy, so that they can scan your network traffic. Your antivirus program may have an option to disable this function (assuming your administrators will allow it).

As a side note, No. 2 above may make you feel uneasy about your supposedly secure TLS traffic being scanned. That's the corporate world for you.

How to open a PDF file in an <iframe>?

Using an iframe to "render" a PDF will not work on all browsers; it depends on how the browser handles PDF files. Some browsers (such as Firefox and Chrome) have a built-in PDF rendered which allows them to display the PDF inline where as some older browsers (perhaps older versions of IE attempt to download the file instead).

Instead, I recommend checking out PDFObject which is a Javascript library to embed PDFs in HTML files. It handles browser compatibility pretty well and will most likely work on IE8.

In your HTML, you could set up a div to display the PDFs:

<div id="pdfRenderer"></div>

Then, you can have Javascript code to embed a PDF in that div:

var pdf = new PDFObject({
  url: "https://something.com/HTC_One_XL_User_Guide.pdf",
  id: "pdfRendered",
  pdfOpenParams: {
    view: "FitH"
  }
}).embed("pdfRenderer");

How to select/get drop down option in Selenium 2

in ruby for constantly using, add follow:

module Selenium
  module WebDriver
    class Element
      def select(value)
        self.find_elements(:tag_name => "option").find do |option|
          if option.text == value
            option.click
              return
           end
       end
    end
  end
end

and you will be able to select value:

browser.find_element(:xpath, ".//xpath").select("Value")

How to select a specific node with LINQ-to-XML

                select c).SingleOrDefault 

Edit:

missed the c# tag, sorry......the example is in VB.NET

How do I get the current time zone of MySQL?

The command mention in the description returns "SYSTEM" which indicated it takes the timezone of the server. Which is not useful for our query.

Following query will help to understand the timezone

SELECT TIMEDIFF(NOW(), UTC_TIMESTAMP) as GMT_TIME_DIFF;

Above query will give you the time interval with respect to Coordinated Universal Time(UTC). So you can easily analyze the timezone. if the database time zone is IST the output will be 5:30

UTC_TIMESTAMP

In MySQL, the UTC_TIMESTAMP returns the current UTC date and time as a value in 'YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS' or YYYYMMDDHHMMSS.uuuuuu format depending on the usage of the function i.e. in a string or numeric context.

NOW()

NOW() function. MySQL NOW() returns the value of current date and time in 'YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS' format or YYYYMMDDHHMMSS.uuuuuu format depending on the context (numeric or string) of the function. CURRENT_TIMESTAMP, CURRENT_TIMESTAMP(), LOCALTIME, LOCALTIME(), LOCALTIMESTAMP, LOCALTIMESTAMP() are synonyms of NOW().

increase legend font size ggplot2

You can use theme_get() to display the possible options for theme. You can control the legend font size using:

+ theme(legend.text=element_text(size=X))

replacing X with the desired size.

Execute the setInterval function without delay the first time

There's a convenient npm package called firstInterval (full disclosure, it's mine).

Many of the examples here don't include parameter handling, and changing default behaviors of setInterval in any large project is evil. From the docs:

This pattern

setInterval(callback, 1000, p1, p2);
callback(p1, p2);

is identical to

firstInterval(callback, 1000, p1, p2);

If you're old school in the browser and don't want the dependency, it's an easy cut-and-paste from the code.

How to convert a python numpy array to an RGB image with Opencv 2.4?

Android toolbar center title and custom font

No one has mentioned this, but there are some attributes for Toolbar:

app:titleTextColor for setting the title text color

app:titleTextAppearance for setting the title text appearance

app:titleMargin for setting the margin

And there are other specific-side margins such as marginStart, etc.

Access Controller method from another controller in Laravel 5

Calling a Controller from another Controller is not recommended, however if for any reason you have to do it, you can do this:

Laravel 5 compatible method

return \App::call('bla\bla\ControllerName@functionName');

Note: this will not update the URL of the page.

It's better to call the Route instead and let it call the controller.

return \Redirect::route('route-name-here');

Does JSON syntax allow duplicate keys in an object?

The short answer: Yes but is not recommended.
The long answer: It depends on what you call valid...


ECMA-404 "The JSON Data Interchange Syntax" doesn't say anything about duplicated names (keys).


However, RFC 8259 "The JavaScript Object Notation (JSON) Data Interchange Format" says:

The names within an object SHOULD be unique.

In this context SHOULD must be understood as specified in BCP 14:

SHOULD This word, or the adjective "RECOMMENDED", mean that there may exist valid reasons in particular circumstances to ignore a particular item, but the full implications must be understood and carefully weighed before choosing a different course.


RFC 8259 explains why unique names (keys) are good:

An object whose names are all unique is interoperable in the sense that all software implementations receiving that object will agree on the name-value mappings. When the names within an object are not unique, the behavior of software that receives such an object is unpredictable. Many implementations report the last name/value pair only. Other implementations report an error or fail to parse the object, and some implementations report all of the name/value pairs, including duplicates.



Also, as Serguei pointed out in the comments: ECMA-262 "ECMAScript® Language Specification", reads:

In the case where there are duplicate name Strings within an object, lexically preceding values for the same key shall be overwritten.

In other words, last-value-wins.


Trying to parse a string with duplicated names with the Java implementation by Douglas Crockford (the creator of JSON) results in an exception:

org.json.JSONException: Duplicate key "status"  at
org.json.JSONObject.putOnce(JSONObject.java:1076)

Maven : error in opening zip file when running maven

Find nearest value in numpy array

If you don't want to use numpy this will do it:

def find_nearest(array, value):
    n = [abs(i-value) for i in array]
    idx = n.index(min(n))
    return array[idx]

How do I change the android actionbar title and icon

Loop backwards using indices in Python?

Short and sweet. This was my solution when doing codeAcademy course. Prints a string in rev order.

def reverse(text):
    string = ""
    for i in range(len(text)-1,-1,-1):
        string += text[i]
    return string    

fork() child and parent processes

We control fork() process call by if, else statement. See my code below:

int main()
{
   int forkresult, parent_ID;

   forkresult=fork();
   if(forkresult !=0 )
   {
        printf(" I am the parent my ID is = %d" , getpid());
        printf(" and my child ID is = %d\n" , forkresult);
   }
   parent_ID = getpid();

   if(forkresult ==0)
      printf(" I am the  child ID is = %d",getpid());
   else
      printf(" and my parent ID is = %d", parent_ID);
}

How do I store and retrieve a blob from sqlite?

This worked fine for me (C#):

byte[] iconBytes = null;
using (var dbConnection = new SQLiteConnection(DataSource))
{
    dbConnection.Open();
    using (var transaction = dbConnection.BeginTransaction())
    {
        using (var command = new SQLiteCommand(dbConnection))
        {
            command.CommandText = "SELECT icon FROM my_table";

            using (var reader = command.ExecuteReader())
            {
                while (reader.Read())
                {
                    if (reader["icon"] != null && !Convert.IsDBNull(reader["icon"]))
                    {
                        iconBytes = (byte[]) reader["icon"];
                    }
                }
            }
        }
        transaction.Commit();
    }
}

No need for chunking. Just cast to a byte array.

Carousel with Thumbnails in Bootstrap 3.0

  1. Use the carousel's indicators to display thumbnails.
  2. Position the thumbnails outside of the main carousel with CSS.
  3. Set the maximum height of the indicators to not be larger than the thumbnails.
  4. Whenever the carousel has slid, update the position of the indicators, positioning the active indicator in the middle of the indicators.

I'm using this on my site (for example here), but I'm using some extra stuff to do lazy loading, meaning extracting the code isn't as straightforward as I would like it to be for putting it in a fiddle.

Also, my templating engine is smarty, but I'm sure you get the idea.

The meat...

Updating the indicators:

<ol class="carousel-indicators">
    {assign var='walker' value=0}
    {foreach from=$item["imagearray"] key="key" item="value"}
        <li data-target="#myCarousel" data-slide-to="{$walker}"{if $walker == 0} class="active"{/if}>
            <img src='http://farm{$value["farm"]}.static.flickr.com/{$value["server"]}/{$value["id"]}_{$value["secret"]}_s.jpg'>
        </li>

        {assign var='walker' value=1 + $walker}
    {/foreach}
</ol>

Changing the CSS related to the indicators:

.carousel-indicators {
    bottom:-50px;
    height: 36px;
    overflow-x: hidden;
    white-space: nowrap;
}

.carousel-indicators li {
    text-indent: 0;
    width: 34px !important;
    height: 34px !important;
    border-radius: 0;
}

.carousel-indicators li img {
    width: 32px;
    height: 32px;
    opacity: 0.5;
}

.carousel-indicators li:hover img, .carousel-indicators li.active img {
    opacity: 1;
}

.carousel-indicators .active {
    border-color: #337ab7;
}

When the carousel has slid, update the list of thumbnails:

$('#myCarousel').on('slid.bs.carousel', function() {
    var widthEstimate = -1 * $(".carousel-indicators li:first").position().left + $(".carousel-indicators li:last").position().left + $(".carousel-indicators li:last").width(); 
    var newIndicatorPosition = $(".carousel-indicators li.active").position().left + $(".carousel-indicators li.active").width() / 2;
    var toScroll = newIndicatorPosition + indicatorPosition;
    var adjustedScroll = toScroll - ($(".carousel-indicators").width() / 2);
    if (adjustedScroll < 0)
        adjustedScroll = 0;

    if (adjustedScroll > widthEstimate - $(".carousel-indicators").width())
        adjustedScroll = widthEstimate - $(".carousel-indicators").width();

    $('.carousel-indicators').animate({ scrollLeft: adjustedScroll }, 800);

    indicatorPosition = adjustedScroll;
});

And, when your page loads, set the initial scroll position of the thumbnails:

var indicatorPosition = 0;

To check if service is available try in your IE URL from example upon without myService1 postfix

Apply function to each element of a list

Or, alternatively, you can take a list comprehension approach:

>>> mylis = ['this is test', 'another test']
>>> [item.upper() for item in mylis]
['THIS IS TEST', 'ANOTHER TEST']

How do I evenly add space between a label and the input field regardless of length of text?

2019 answer:

Some time has passed and I changed my approach now when building forms. I've done thousands of them till today and got really tired of typing id for every label/input pair, so this was flushed down the toilet. When you dive input right into the label, things work the same way, no ids necessary. I also took advantage of flexbox being, well, very flexible.

HTML:

<label>
  Short label <input type="text" name="dummy1" />
</label>

<label>
  Somehow longer label <input type="text" name="dummy2" />
</label>

<label>
  Very long label for testing purposes <input type="text" name="dummy3" />
</label>

CSS:

label {
  display: flex;
  flex-direction: row;
  justify-content: flex-end;
  text-align: right;
  width: 400px;
  line-height: 26px;
  margin-bottom: 10px;
}

input {
  height: 20px;
  flex: 0 0 200px;
  margin-left: 10px;
}

Fiddle DEMO


Original answer:

Use label instead of span. It's meant to be paired with inputs and preserves some additional functionality (clicking label focuses the input).

This might be exactly what you want:

HTML:

<label for="dummy1">title for dummy1:</label>
<input id="dummy1" name="dummy1" value="dummy1">

<label for="dummy2">longer title for dummy2:</label>
<input id="dummy2" name="dummy2" value="dummy2">

<label for="dummy3">even longer title for dummy3:</label>
<input id="dummy3" name="dummy3" value="dummy3">

CSS:

Generating unique random numbers (integers) between 0 and 'x'

These answers either don't give unique values, or are so long (one even adding an external library to do such a simple task).

1. generate a random number.
2. if we have this random already then goto 1, else keep it.
3. if we don't have desired quantity of randoms, then goto 1.

_x000D_
_x000D_
function uniqueRandoms(qty, min, max){_x000D_
  var rnd, arr=[];_x000D_
  do { do { rnd=Math.floor(Math.random()*max)+min }_x000D_
      while(arr.includes(rnd))_x000D_
      arr.push(rnd);_x000D_
  } while(arr.length<qty)_x000D_
  return arr;_x000D_
}_x000D_
_x000D_
//generate 5 unique numbers between 1 and 10_x000D_
console.log( uniqueRandoms(5, 1, 10) );
_x000D_
_x000D_
_x000D_

...and a compressed version of the same function:

function uniqueRandoms(qty,min,max){var a=[];do{do{r=Math.floor(Math.random()*max)+min}while(a.includes(r));a.push(r)}while(a.length<qty);return a}

Java decimal formatting using String.format?

java.text.NumberFormat is probably what you want.

How can I return the current action in an ASP.NET MVC view?

I saw different answers and came up with a class helper:

using System;
using System.Web.Mvc;

namespace MyMvcApp.Helpers {
    public class LocationHelper {
        public static bool IsCurrentControllerAndAction(string controllerName, string actionName, ViewContext viewContext) {
            bool result = false;
            string normalizedControllerName = controllerName.EndsWith("Controller") ? controllerName : String.Format("{0}Controller", controllerName);

            if(viewContext == null) return false;
            if(String.IsNullOrEmpty(actionName)) return false;

            if (viewContext.Controller.GetType().Name.Equals(normalizedControllerName, StringComparison.InvariantCultureIgnoreCase) &&
                viewContext.Controller.ValueProvider.GetValue("action").AttemptedValue.Equals(actionName, StringComparison.InvariantCultureIgnoreCase)) {
                result = true;
            }

            return result;
        }
    }
}

So in View (or master/layout) you can use it like so (Razor syntax):

            <div id="menucontainer">

                <ul id="menu">
                    <li @if(MyMvcApp.Helpers.LocationHelper.IsCurrentControllerAndAction("home", "index", ViewContext)) {
                            @:class="selected"
                        }>@Html.ActionLink("Home", "Index", "Home")</li>
                    <li @if(MyMvcApp.Helpers.LocationHelper.IsCurrentControllerAndAction("account","logon", ViewContext)) {
                            @:class="selected"
                        }>@Html.ActionLink("Logon", "Logon", "Account")</li>
                    <li @if(MyMvcApp.Helpers.LocationHelper.IsCurrentControllerAndAction("home","about", ViewContext)) {
                            @:class="selected"
                        }>@Html.ActionLink("About", "About", "Home")</li>
                </ul>

            </div>

Hope it helps.

How to get rid of blank pages in PDF exported from SSRS

In BIDS or SSDT-BI, do the following:

  1. Click on Report > Report Properties > Layout tab (Page Setup tab in SSDT-BI)
  2. Make a note of the values for Page width, Left margin, Right margin
  3. Close and go back to the design surface
  4. In the Properties window, select Body
  5. Click the + symbol to expand the Size node
  6. Make a note of the value for Width

To render in PDF correctly Body Width + Left margin + Right margin must be less than or equal to Page width. When you see blank pages being rendered it is almost always because the body width plus margins is greater than the page width.

Remember: (Body Width + Left margin + Right margin) <= (Page width)

Laravel 5 – Remove Public from URL

You can simply do it in 2 easy steps

  1. Rename your server.php file in root directory of your laravel project.

  2. create a .htaccess file on root directory and paste the below code in it

Options -MultiViews -Indexes

RewriteEngine On
 

**#Handle Authorization Header**

RewriteCond %{HTTP:Authorization} .

RewriteRule .* - [E=HTTP_AUTHORIZATION:%{HTTP:Authorization}]

 

**# Redirect Trailing Slashes If Not A Folder...**

Bulk Insertion in Laravel using eloquent ORM

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

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

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

How to restart VScode after editing extension's config?

How to resize array in C++?

Raw arrays aren't resizable in C++.

You should be using something like a Vector class which does allow resizing..

std::vector allows you to resize it as well as allowing dynamic resizing when you add elements (often making the manual resizing unnecessary for adding).

In JPA 2, using a CriteriaQuery, how to count results

It is a bit tricky, depending on the JPA 2 implementation you use, this one works for EclipseLink 2.4.1, but doesn't for Hibernate, here a generic CriteriaQuery count for EclipseLink:

public static Long count(final EntityManager em, final CriteriaQuery<?> criteria)
  {
    final CriteriaBuilder builder=em.getCriteriaBuilder();
    final CriteriaQuery<Long> countCriteria=builder.createQuery(Long.class);
    countCriteria.select(builder.count(criteria.getRoots().iterator().next()));
    final Predicate
            groupRestriction=criteria.getGroupRestriction(),
            fromRestriction=criteria.getRestriction();
    if(groupRestriction != null){
      countCriteria.having(groupRestriction);
    }
    if(fromRestriction != null){
      countCriteria.where(fromRestriction);
    }
    countCriteria.groupBy(criteria.getGroupList());
    countCriteria.distinct(criteria.isDistinct());
    return em.createQuery(countCriteria).getSingleResult();
  }

The other day I migrated from EclipseLink to Hibernate and had to change my count function to the following, so feel free to use either as this is a hard problem to solve, it might not work for your case, it has been in use since Hibernate 4.x, notice that I don't try to guess which is the root, instead I pass it from the query so problem solved, too many ambiguous corner cases to try to guess:

  public static <T> long count(EntityManager em,Root<T> root,CriteriaQuery<T> criteria)
  {
    final CriteriaBuilder builder=em.getCriteriaBuilder();
    final CriteriaQuery<Long> countCriteria=builder.createQuery(Long.class);

    countCriteria.select(builder.count(root));

    for(Root<?> fromRoot : criteria.getRoots()){
      countCriteria.getRoots().add(fromRoot);
    }

    final Predicate whereRestriction=criteria.getRestriction();
    if(whereRestriction!=null){
      countCriteria.where(whereRestriction);
    }

    final Predicate groupRestriction=criteria.getGroupRestriction();
    if(groupRestriction!=null){
      countCriteria.having(groupRestriction);
    }

    countCriteria.groupBy(criteria.getGroupList());
    countCriteria.distinct(criteria.isDistinct());
    return em.createQuery(countCriteria).getSingleResult();
  }

Show and hide a View with a slide up/down animation

Kotlin

Based on Suragch's answer, here is an elegant way using View extension:

fun View.slideUp(duration: Int = 500) {
    visibility = View.VISIBLE
    val animate = TranslateAnimation(0f, 0f, this.height.toFloat(), 0f)
    animate.duration = duration.toLong()
    animate.fillAfter = true
    this.startAnimation(animate)
}

fun View.slideDown(duration: Int = 500) {
    visibility = View.VISIBLE
    val animate = TranslateAnimation(0f, 0f, 0f, this.height.toFloat())
    animate.duration = duration.toLong()
    animate.fillAfter = true
    this.startAnimation(animate)
}

And then wherever you want to use it, you just need myView.slideUp() or myView.slideDown()

Hide Command Window of .BAT file that Executes Another .EXE File

Using start works for me:

@echo off
copy "C:\Remoting.config-Training" "C:\Remoting.config"
start C:\ThirdParty.exe

EDIT: Ok, looking more closely, start seems to interpret the first parameter as the new window title if quoted. So, if you need to quote the path to your ThirdParty.exe you must supply a title string as well.

Examples:

:: Title not needed:
start C:\ThirdParty.exe

:: Title needed
start "Third Party App" "C:\Program Files\Vendor\ThirdParty.exe"

Configuring Git over SSH to login once

If you have cloned using HTTPS (recommended) then:-

git config --global credential.helper cache

and then

git config --global credential.helper 'cache --timeout=2592000'
  • timeout=2592000 (30 Days in seconds) to enable caching for 30 days (or whatever suites you).

  • Now run a simple git command that requires your username and password.

  • Enter your credentials once and now caching is enabled for 30 Days.

  • Try again with any git command and now you don't need any credentials.

  • For more info :- Caching your GitHub password in Git

Note : You need Git 1.7.10 or newer to use the credential helper. On system restart, we might have to enter the password again.

Update #1:

If you are receiving this error git: 'credential-cache' is not a git command. See 'get --help'

then replace git config --global credential.helper 'cache --timeout=2592000'

with git config --global credential.helper 'store --file ~/.my-credentials'

Update #2:

If you keep getting the prompt of username and password and getting this issue:

Logon failed, use ctrl+c to cancel basic credential prompt.

Reinstalling the latest version of git worked for me.

Paste multiple columns together

Here's a fairly unconventional (but fast) approach: use fwrite from data.table to "paste" the columns together, and fread to read it back in. For convenience, I've written the steps as a function called fpaste:

fpaste <- function(dt, sep = ",") {
  x <- tempfile()
  fwrite(dt, file = x, sep = sep, col.names = FALSE)
  fread(x, sep = "\n", header = FALSE)
}

Here's an example:

d <- data.frame(a = 1:3, b = c('a','b','c'), c = c('d','e','f'), d = c('g','h','i')) 
cols = c("b", "c", "d")

fpaste(d[cols], "-")
#       V1
# 1: a-d-g
# 2: b-e-h
# 3: c-f-i

How does it perform?

d2 <- d[sample(1:3,1e6,TRUE),]
  
library(microbenchmark)
microbenchmark(
  docp = do.call(paste, c(d2[cols], sep="-")),
  tidr = tidyr::unite_(d2, "x", cols, sep="-")$x,
  docs = do.call(sprintf, c(d2[cols], '%s-%s-%s')),
  appl = apply( d2[, cols ] , 1 , paste , collapse = "-" ),
  fpaste = fpaste(d2[cols], "-")$V1,
  dt2 = as.data.table(d2)[, x := Reduce(function(...) paste(..., sep = "-"), .SD), .SDcols = cols][],
  times=10)

How do I find the index of a character in a string in Ruby?

index(substring [, offset]) ? fixnum or nil
index(regexp [, offset]) ? fixnum or nil

Returns the index of the first occurrence of the given substring or pattern (regexp) in str. Returns nil if not found. If the second parameter is present, it specifies the position in the string to begin the search.

"hello".index('e')             #=> 1
"hello".index('lo')            #=> 3
"hello".index('a')             #=> nil
"hello".index(?e)              #=> 1
"hello".index(/[aeiou]/, -3)   #=> 4

How to add items to a spinner in Android?

Add a spinner to the XML layout, and then add this code to the Java file:

Spinner spinner;
spinner = (Spinner) findViewById(R.id.spinner1) ;
java.util.ArrayList<String> strings = new java.util.ArrayList<>();
strings.add("Mobile") ;
strings.add("Home");
strings.add("Work");
SpinnerAdapter spinnerAdapter = new SpinnerAdapter(AddMember.this, R.layout.support_simple_spinner_dropdown_item, strings);
spinner.setAdapter(spinnerAdapter);

Short description of the scoping rules?

Actually, a concise rule for Python Scope resolution, from Learning Python, 3rd. Ed.. (These rules are specific to variable names, not attributes. If you reference it without a period, these rules apply.)

LEGB Rule

  • Local — Names assigned in any way within a function (def or lambda), and not declared global in that function

  • Enclosing-function — Names assigned in the local scope of any and all statically enclosing functions (def or lambda), from inner to outer

  • Global (module) — Names assigned at the top-level of a module file, or by executing a global statement in a def within the file

  • Built-in (Python) — Names preassigned in the built-in names module: open, range, SyntaxError, etc

So, in the case of

code1
class Foo:
    code2
    def spam():
        code3
        for code4:
            code5
            x()

The for loop does not have its own namespace. In LEGB order, the scopes would be

  • L: Local in def spam (in code3, code4, and code5)
  • E: Any enclosing functions (if the whole example were in another def)
  • G: Were there any x declared globally in the module (in code1)?
  • B: Any builtin x in Python.

x will never be found in code2 (even in cases where you might expect it would, see Antti's answer or here).

What .NET collection provides the fastest search

Keep both lists x and y in sorted order.

If x = y, do your action, if x < y, advance x, if y < x, advance y until either list is empty.

The run time of this intersection is proportional to min (size (x), size (y))

Don't run a .Contains () loop, this is proportional to x * y which is much worse.

How can I safely create a nested directory?

Missing .map resource?

jQuery recently started using source maps.

For example, let's look at the minified jQuery 2.0.3 file's first few lines.

/*! jQuery v2.0.3 | (c) 2005, 2013 jQuery Foundation, Inc. | jquery.org/license
//@ sourceMappingURL=jquery.min.map
*/

Excerpt from Introduction to JavaScript Source Maps:

Have you ever found yourself wishing you could keep your client-side code readable and more importantly debuggable even after you've combined and minified it, without impacting performance? Well now you can through the magic of source maps.

Basically it's a way to map a combined/minified file back to an unbuilt state. When you build for production, along with minifying and combining your JavaScript files, you generate a source map which holds information about your original files. When you query a certain line and column number in your generated JavaScript you can do a lookup in the source map which returns the original location. Developer tools (currently WebKit nightly builds, Google Chrome, or Firefox 23+) can parse the source map automatically and make it appear as though you're running unminified and uncombined files.

emphasis mine

It's incredibly useful, and will only download if the user opens dev tools.

Solution

Remove the source mapping line, or do nothing. It isn't really a problem.


Side note: your server should return 404, not 500. It could point to a security problem if this happens in production.

Windows git "warning: LF will be replaced by CRLF", is that warning tail backward?

If you are using Visual Studio 2017, 2019, you can:

How can I access getSupportFragmentManager() in a fragment?

You can use getActivity().getSupportFragmentManager() anytime you want to getSupportFragmentManager.

hierarchy is Activity -> fragment. fragment is not capable of directly calling getSupportFragmentManger but Activity can . Thus, you can use getActivity to call the current activity which the fragment is in and get getSupportFragmentManager()

IOCTL Linux device driver

An ioctl, which means "input-output control" is a kind of device-specific system call. There are only a few system calls in Linux (300-400), which are not enough to express all the unique functions devices may have. So a driver can define an ioctl which allows a userspace application to send it orders. However, ioctls are not very flexible and tend to get a bit cluttered (dozens of "magic numbers" which just work... or not), and can also be insecure, as you pass a buffer into the kernel - bad handling can break things easily.

An alternative is the sysfs interface, where you set up a file under /sys/ and read/write that to get information from and to the driver. An example of how to set this up:

static ssize_t mydrvr_version_show(struct device *dev,
        struct device_attribute *attr, char *buf)
{
    return sprintf(buf, "%s\n", DRIVER_RELEASE);
}

static DEVICE_ATTR(version, S_IRUGO, mydrvr_version_show, NULL);

And during driver setup:

device_create_file(dev, &dev_attr_version);

You would then have a file for your device in /sys/, for example, /sys/block/myblk/version for a block driver.

Another method for heavier use is netlink, which is an IPC (inter-process communication) method to talk to your driver over a BSD socket interface. This is used, for example, by the WiFi drivers. You then communicate with it from userspace using the libnl or libnl3 libraries.

Node.js - use of module.exports as a constructor

The example code is:

in main

square(width,function (data)
{
   console.log(data.squareVal);
});

using the following may works

exports.square = function(width,callback)
{
     var aa = new Object();
     callback(aa.squareVal = width * width);    
}

How to get calendar Quarter from a date in TSQL

Since your date field data is in int you will need to convert it to a datetime:

declare @date int
set @date = 20080102

SELECT Datename(quarter, Cast(left(@date, 4) + '-' 
    + substring(cast(@date as char(8)), 5, 2) + '-' 
    + substring(cast(@date as char(8)), 7, 2) as datetime)) as Quarter

or

SELECT Datename(quarter, Cast(left(@date, 4) + '-' 
    + substring(cast(@date as char(8)), 5, 2) + '-' 
    + right(@date, 2) as datetime)) as quarter

Then if you want the Q1 added:

SELECT left(@date, 4) + '-Q' + Convert(varchar(1), Datename(quarter, Cast(left(@date, 4) + '-' 
    + substring(cast(@date as char(8)), 5, 2) + '-' 
    + right(@date, 2) as datetime))) as quarter

My advice would be to store your date data as a datetime so then you do not need to perform these conversions.

Reading rather large json files in Python

The issue here is that JSON, as a format, is generally parsed in full and then handled in-memory, which for such a large amount of data is clearly problematic.

The solution to this is to work with the data as a stream - reading part of the file, working with it, and then repeating.

The best option appears to be using something like ijson - a module that will work with JSON as a stream, rather than as a block file.

Edit: Also worth a look - kashif's comment about json-streamer and Henrik Heino's comment about bigjson.

Print multiple arguments in Python

In Python 3.6, f-string is much cleaner.

In earlier version:

print("Total score for %s is %s. " % (name, score))

In Python 3.6:

print(f'Total score for {name} is {score}.')

will do.

It is more efficient and elegant.

Checking from shell script if a directory contains files

This tells me if the directory is empty or if it's not, the number of files it contains.

directory="/some/dir"
number_of_files=$(ls -A $directory | wc -l)

    echo "directory $directory is empty"
else
    echo "directory $directory contains $number_of_files files"
fi

How can I convert IPV6 address to IPV4 address?

There isn't a 1-1 correspondence between IPv4 and IPv6 addresses (nor between IP addresses and devices), so what you're asking for generally isn't possible.

There is a particular range of IPv6 addresses that actually represent the IPv4 address space, but general IPv6 addresses will not be from this range.

How to dynamically create a class?

Based on @danijels's answer, dynamically create a class in VB.NET:

Imports System.Reflection
Imports System.Reflection.Emit

Public Class ObjectBuilder

Public Property myType As Object
Public Property myObject As Object

Public Sub New(fields As List(Of Field))
    myType = CompileResultType(fields)
    myObject = Activator.CreateInstance(myType)
End Sub

Public Shared Function CompileResultType(fields As List(Of Field)) As Type
    Dim tb As TypeBuilder = GetTypeBuilder()
    Dim constructor As ConstructorBuilder = tb.DefineDefaultConstructor(MethodAttributes.[Public] Or MethodAttributes.SpecialName Or MethodAttributes.RTSpecialName)

    For Each field In fields
        CreateProperty(tb, field.Name, field.Type)
    Next

    Dim objectType As Type = tb.CreateType()
    Return objectType
End Function

Private Shared Function GetTypeBuilder() As TypeBuilder
    Dim typeSignature = "MyDynamicType"
    Dim an = New AssemblyName(typeSignature)

Enforcing the type of the indexed members of a Typescript object?

Building on @shabunc's answer, this would allow enforcing either the key or the value — or both — to be anything you want to enforce.

type IdentifierKeys = 'my.valid.key.1' | 'my.valid.key.2';
type IdentifierValues = 'my.valid.value.1' | 'my.valid.value.2';

let stuff = new Map<IdentifierKeys, IdentifierValues>();

Should also work using enum instead of a type definition.

Plotting images side by side using matplotlib

You are plotting all your images on one axis. What you want ist to get a handle for each axis individually and plot your images there. Like so:

fig = plt.figure()
ax1 = fig.add_subplot(2,2,1)
ax1.imshow(...)
ax2 = fig.add_subplot(2,2,2)
ax2.imshow(...)
ax3 = fig.add_subplot(2,2,3)
ax3.imshow(...)
ax4 = fig.add_subplot(2,2,4)
ax4.imshow(...)

For complex layouts, you should consider using gridspec: http://matplotlib.org/users/gridspec.html

Bootstrap 3 - Set Container Width to 940px Maximum for Desktops?

The best option is to use the original LESS version of bootstrap (get it from github).

Open variables.less and look for // Media queries breakpoints

Find this code and change the breakpoint value:

// Large screen / wide desktop
@screen-lg:                  1200px; // change this
@screen-lg-desktop:          @screen-lg;

Change it to 9999px for example, and this will prevent the breakpoint to be reached, so your site will always load the previous media query which has 940px container

How to iterate for loop in reverse order in swift?

Swift 4.0

for i in stride(from: 5, to: 0, by: -1) {
    print(i) // 5,4,3,2,1

If you want to include the to value:

for i in stride(from: 5, through: 0, by: -1) {
    print(i) // 5,4,3,2,1,0
}

OpenCV - Apply mask to a color image

import cv2 as cv

im_color = cv.imread("lena.png", cv.IMREAD_COLOR)
im_gray = cv.cvtColor(im_color, cv.COLOR_BGR2GRAY)

At this point you have a color and a gray image. We are dealing with 8-bit, uint8 images here. That means the images can have pixel values in the range of [0, 255] and the values have to be integers.

left-color,right-gray

Let's do a binary thresholding operation. It creates a black and white masked image. The black regions have value 0 and the white regions 255

_, mask = cv.threshold(im_gray, thresh=180, maxval=255, type=cv.THRESH_BINARY)
im_thresh_gray = cv.bitwise_and(im_gray, mask)

The mask can be seen below on the left. The image on it's right is the result of applying bitwise_and operation between the gray image and the mask. What happened is, the spatial locations where the mask had a pixel value zero (black), became pixel value zero in the result image. The locations where the mask had pixel value 255 (white), the resulting image retained it's original gray value.

left-mask,right-bitwise_and_with_mask

To apply this mask to our original color image, we need to convert the mask into a 3 channel image as the original color image is a 3 channel image.

mask3 = cv.cvtColor(mask, cv.COLOR_GRAY2BGR)  # 3 channel mask

Then, we can apply this 3 channel mask to our color image using the same bitwise_and function.

im_thresh_color = cv.bitwise_and(im_color, mask3)

mask3 from the code is the image below on the left, and im_thresh_color is on its right.

left-mask-3channel,right-bitwise_and_with_3channel-mask

You can plot the results and see for yourself.

cv.imshow("original image", im_color)
cv.imshow("binary mask", mask)
cv.imshow("3 channel mask", mask3)
cv.imshow("im_thresh_gray", im_thresh_gray)
cv.imshow("im_thresh_color", im_thresh_color)
cv.waitKey(0)

The original image is lenacolor.png that I found here.

How to set default value for form field in Symfony2?

I've contemplated this a few times in the past so thought I'd jot down the different ideas I've had / used. Something might be of use, but none are "perfect" Symfony2 solutions.

Constructor In the Entity you can do $this->setBar('default value'); but this is called every time you load the entity (db or not) and is a bit messy. It does however work for every field type as you can create dates or whatever else you need.

If statements within get's I wouldn't, but you could.

return ( ! $this->hasFoo() ) ? 'default' : $this->foo;

Factory / instance. Call a static function / secondary class which provides you a default Entity pre-populated with data. E.g.

function getFactory() {
    $obj = new static();
    $obj->setBar('foo');
    $obj->setFoo('bar');

   return $obj;
}

Not really ideal given you'll have to maintain this function if you add extra fields, but it does mean you're separating the data setters / default and that which is generated from the db. Similarly you can have multiple getFactories should you want different defaulted data.

Extended / Reflection entities Create a extending Entity (e.g. FooCreate extends Foo) which gives you the defaulted data at create time (through the constructor). Similar to the Factory / instance idea just a different approach - I prefer static methods personally.

Set Data before build form In the constructors / service, you know if you have a new entity or if it was populated from the db. It's plausible therefore to call set data on the different fields when you grab a new entity. E.g.

if( ! $entity->isFromDB() ) {
     $entity->setBar('default');
     $entity->setDate( date('Y-m-d');
     ...
}
$form = $this->createForm(...)

Form Events When you create the form you set default data when creating the fields. You override this use PreSetData event listener. The problem with this is that you're duplicating the form workload / duplicating code and making it harder to maintain / understand.

Extended forms Similar to Form events, but you call the different type depending on if it's a db / new entity. By this I mean you have FooType which defines your edit form, BarType extends FooType this and sets all the data to the fields. In your controller you then simply choose which form type to instigate. This sucks if you have a custom theme though and like events, creates too much maintenance for my liking.

Twig You can create your own theme and default the data using the value option too when you do it on a per-field basis. There is nothing stopping you wrapping this into a form theme either should you wish to keep your templates clean and the form reusable. e.g.

form_widget(form.foo, {attr: { value : default } });

JS It'd be trivial to populate the form with a JS function if the fields are empty. You could do something with placeholders for example. This is a bad, bad idea though.

Forms as a service For one of the big form based projects I did, I created a service which generated all the forms, did all the processing etc. This was because the forms were to be used across multiple controllers in multiple environments and whilst the forms were generated / handled in the same way, they were displayed / interacted with differently (e.g. error handling, redirections etc). The beauty of this approach was that you can default data, do everything you need, handle errors generically etc and it's all encapsulated in one place.

Conclusion As I see it, you'll run into the same issue time and time again - where is the defaulted data to live?

  • If you store it at db/doctrine level what happens if you don't want to store the default every time?
  • If you store it at Entity level what happens if you want to re-use that entity elsewhere without any data in it?
  • If you store it at Entity Level and add a new field, do you want the previous versions to have that default value upon editing? Same goes for the default in the DB...
  • If you store it at the form level, is that obvious when you come to maintain the code later?
  • If it's in the constructor what happens if you use the form in multiple places?
  • If you push it to JS level then you've gone too far - the data shouldn't be in the view never mind JS (and we're ignoring compatibility, rendering errors etc)
  • The service is great if like me you're using it in multiple places, but it's overkill for a simple add / edit form on one site...

To that end, I've approached the problem differently each time. For example, a signup form "newsletter" option is easily (and logically) set in the constructor just before creating the form. When I was building forms collections which were linked together (e.g. which radio buttons in different form types linked together) then I've used Event Listeners. When I've built a more complicated entity (e.g. one which required children or lots of defaulted data) I've used a function (e.g. 'getFactory') to create it element as I need it.

I don't think there is one "right" approach as every time I've had this requirement it's been slightly different.

Good luck! I hope I've given you some food for thought at any rate and didn't ramble too much ;)

Seeing if data is normally distributed in R

I would also highly recommend the SnowsPenultimateNormalityTest in the TeachingDemos package. The documentation of the function is far more useful to you than the test itself, though. Read it thoroughly before using the test.

How to check if a row exists in MySQL? (i.e. check if an email exists in MySQL)

After validation and before INSERT check if username already exists, using mysqli(procedural). This works:

//check if username already exists
       include 'phpscript/connect.php'; //connect to your database

       $sql = "SELECT username FROM users WHERE username = '$username'";
       $result = $conn->query($sql);

       if($result->num_rows > 0) {
           $usernameErr =  "username already taken"; //takes'em back to form
       } else { // go on to INSERT new record

Shortest way to print current year in a website

according to chrome audit

For users on slow connections, external scripts dynamically injected via document.write() can delay page load by tens of seconds.

so solution without errors is:

(new Date).getFullYear();

JSON.parse vs. eval()

If you parse the JSON with eval, you're allowing the string being parsed to contain absolutely anything, so instead of just being a set of data, you could find yourself executing function calls, or whatever.

Also, JSON's parse accepts an aditional parameter, reviver, that lets you specify how to deal with certain values, such as datetimes (more info and example in the inline documentation here)

Python Pandas replicate rows in dataframe

Appending and concatenating is usually slow in Pandas so I recommend just making a new list of the rows and turning that into a dataframe (unless appending a single row or concatenating a few dataframes).

import pandas as pd

df = pd.DataFrame([
[1,1,'2010-02-05',24924.5,False],
[1,1,'2010-02-12',46039.49,True],
[1,1,'2010-02-19',41595.55,False],
[1,1,'2010-02-26',19403.54,False],
[1,1,'2010-03-05',21827.9,False],
[1,1,'2010-03-12',21043.39,False],
[1,1,'2010-03-19',22136.64,False],
[1,1,'2010-03-26',26229.21,False],
[1,1,'2010-04-02',57258.43,False]
], columns=['Store','Dept','Date','Weekly_Sales','IsHoliday'])

temp_df = []
for row in df.itertuples(index=False):
    if row.IsHoliday:
        temp_df.extend([list(row)]*5)
    else:
        temp_df.append(list(row))

df = pd.DataFrame(temp_df, columns=df.columns)

How can I use grep to find a word inside a folder?

grep -nr 'yourString*' .

The dot at the end searches the current directory. Meaning for each parameter:

-n            Show relative line number in the file
'yourString*' String for search, followed by a wildcard character
-r            Recursively search subdirectories listed
.             Directory for search (current directory)

grep -nr 'MobileAppSer*' . (Would find MobileAppServlet.java or MobileAppServlet.class or MobileAppServlet.txt; 'MobileAppASer*.*' is another way to do the same thing.)

To check more parameters use man grep command.

Transition of background-color

To me, it is better to put the transition codes with the original/minimum selectors than with the :hover or any other additional selectors:

_x000D_
_x000D_
#content #nav a {_x000D_
    background-color: #FF0;_x000D_
    _x000D_
    -webkit-transition: background-color 1000ms linear;_x000D_
    -moz-transition: background-color 1000ms linear;_x000D_
    -o-transition: background-color 1000ms linear;_x000D_
    -ms-transition: background-color 1000ms linear;_x000D_
    transition: background-color 1000ms linear;_x000D_
}_x000D_
_x000D_
#content #nav a:hover {_x000D_
    background-color: #AD310B;_x000D_
}
_x000D_
<div id="content">_x000D_
    <div id="nav">_x000D_
        <a href="#link1">Link 1</a>_x000D_
    </div>_x000D_
</div>

Replacing &nbsp; from javascript dom text node

i used this, and it worked:

var cleanText = text.replace(/&amp;nbsp;/g,"");

How can I add a custom HTTP header to ajax request with js or jQuery?

Assuming JQuery ajax, you can add custom headers like -

$.ajax({
  url: url,
  beforeSend: function(xhr) {
    xhr.setRequestHeader("custom_header", "value");
  },
  success: function(data) {
  }
});

Show loading image while $.ajax is performed

Use the ajax object's beforeSend and complete functions. It's better to show the gif from inside beforeSend so that all the behavior is encapsulated in a single object. Be careful about hiding the gif using the success function. If the request fails, you'll probably still want to hide the gif. To do this use the Complete function. It would look like this:

$.ajax({
    url: uri,
    cache: false,
    beforeSend: function(){
        $('#image').show();
    },
    complete: function(){
        $('#image').hide();
    },
    success: function(html){
       $('.info').append(html);
    }
});

Creating a LINQ select from multiple tables

If the anonymous type causes trouble for you, you can create a simple data class:

public class PermissionsAndPages
{
     public ObjectPermissions Permissions {get;set}
     public Pages Pages {get;set}
}

and then in your query:

select new PermissionsAndPages { Permissions = op, Page = pg };

Then you can pass this around:

return queryResult.SingleOrDefault(); // as PermissionsAndPages

Instantiate and Present a viewController in Swift

// "Main" is name of .storybord file "
let mainStoryboard: UIStoryboard = UIStoryboard(name: "Main", bundle: nil)
// "MiniGameView" is the ID given to the ViewController in the interfacebuilder
// MiniGameViewController is the CLASS name of the ViewController.swift file acosiated to the ViewController
var setViewController = mainStoryboard.instantiateViewControllerWithIdentifier("MiniGameView") as MiniGameViewController
var rootViewController = self.window!.rootViewController
rootViewController?.presentViewController(setViewController, animated: false, completion: nil)

This worked fine for me when i put it in AppDelegate

Reset C int array to zero : the fastest way?

You can use memset, but only because our selection of types is restricted to integral types.

In general case in C it makes sense to implement a macro

#define ZERO_ANY(T, a, n) do{\
   T *a_ = (a);\
   size_t n_ = (n);\
   for (; n_ > 0; --n_, ++a_)\
     *a_ = (T) { 0 };\
} while (0)

This will give you C++-like functionality that will let you to "reset to zeros" an array of objects of any type without having to resort to hacks like memset. Basically, this is a C analog of C++ function template, except that you have to specify the type argument explicitly.

On top of that you can build a "template" for non-decayed arrays

#define ARRAY_SIZE(a) (sizeof (a) / sizeof *(a))
#define ZERO_ANY_A(T, a) ZERO_ANY(T, (a), ARRAY_SIZE(a))

In your example it would be applied as

int a[100];

ZERO_ANY(int, a, 100);
// or
ZERO_ANY_A(int, a);

It is also worth noting that specifically for objects of scalar types one can implement a type-independent macro

#define ZERO(a, n) do{\
   size_t i_ = 0, n_ = (n);\
   for (; i_ < n_; ++i_)\
     (a)[i_] = 0;\
} while (0)

and

#define ZERO_A(a) ZERO((a), ARRAY_SIZE(a))

turning the above example into

 int a[100];

 ZERO(a, 100);
 // or
 ZERO_A(a);

Difference between decimal, float and double in .NET?

  1. Double and float can be divided by integer zero without an exception at both compilation and run time.
  2. Decimal cannot be divided by integer zero. Compilation will always fail if you do that.

Oracle date format picture ends before converting entire input string

I had this error today and discovered it was an incorrectly-formatted year...

select * from es_timeexpense where parsedate > to_date('12/3/2018', 'MM/dd/yyy')

Notice the year has only three 'y's. It should have 4.

Double-check your format.

Color Tint UIButton Image

You must set the image rendering mode to UIImageRenderingModeAlwaysTemplate in order to have the tintColor affect the UIImage. Here is the solution in Swift:

let image = UIImage(named: "image-name")
let button = UIButton()
button.setImage(image?.imageWithRenderingMode(UIImageRenderingMode.AlwaysTemplate), forState: .Normal)
button.tintColor = UIColor.whiteColor()

SWIFT 4x

button.setImage(image.withRenderingMode(UIImage.RenderingMode.alwaysTemplate), for: .normal)
button.tintColor = UIColor.blue

Correlation between two vectors?

To perform a linear regression between two vectors x and y follow these steps:

[p,err] = polyfit(x,y,1);   % First order polynomial
y_fit = polyval(p,x,err);   % Values on a line
y_dif = y - y_fit;          % y value difference (residuals)
SSdif = sum(y_dif.^2);      % Sum square of difference
SStot = (length(y)-1)*var(y);   % Sum square of y taken from variance
rsq = 1-SSdif/SStot;        % Correlation 'r' value. If 1.0 the correlelation is perfect

For x=[10;200;7;150] and y=[0.001;0.45;0.0007;0.2] I get rsq = 0.9181.

How to submit http form using C#

Response.Write("<script> try {this.submit();} catch(e){} </script>");

What can <f:metadata>, <f:viewParam> and <f:viewAction> be used for?

Send params from View to an other View, from Sender View to Receiver View use viewParam and includeViewParams=true

In Sender

  1. Declare params to be sent. We can send String, Object,…

Sender.xhtml

<f:metadata>
      <f:viewParam name="ID" value="#{senderMB._strID}" />
</f:metadata>
  1. We’re going send param ID, it will be included with “includeViewParams=true” in return String of click button event Click button fire senderMB.clickBtnDetail(dto) with dto from senderMB._arrData

Sender.xhtml

<p:dataTable rowIndexVar="index" id="dataTale"value="#{senderMB._arrData}" var="dto">
      <p:commandButton action="#{senderMB.clickBtnDetail(dto)}" value="??" 
      ajax="false"/>
</p:dataTable>

In senderMB.clickBtnDetail(dto) we assign _strID with argument we got from button event (dto), here this is Sender_DTO and assign to senderMB._strID

Sender_MB.java
    public String clickBtnDetail(sender_DTO sender_dto) {
        this._strID = sender_dto.getStrID();
        return "Receiver?faces-redirect=true&includeViewParams=true";
    }

The link when clicked will become http://localhost:8080/my_project/view/Receiver.xhtml?*ID=12345*

In Recever

  1. Get viewParam Receiver.xhtml In Receiver we declare f:viewParam to get param from get request (receive), the name of param of receiver must be the same with sender (page)

Receiver.xhtml

<f:metadata><f:viewParam name="ID" value="#{receiver_MB._strID}"/></f:metadata>

It will get param ID from sender View and assign to receiver_MB._strID

  1. Use viewParam In Receiver, we want to use this param in sql query before the page render, so that we use preRenderView event. We are not going to use constructor because constructor will be invoked before viewParam is received So that we add

Receiver.xhtml

<f:event listener="#{receiver_MB.preRenderView}" type="preRenderView" />

into f:metadata tag

Receiver.xhtml

<f:metadata>
<f:viewParam name="ID" value="#{receiver_MB._strID}" />
<f:event listener="#{receiver_MB.preRenderView}"
            type="preRenderView" />
</f:metadata>

Now we want to use this param in our read database method, it is available to use

Receiver_MB.java
public void preRenderView(ComponentSystemEvent event) throws Exception {
        if (FacesContext.getCurrentInstance().isPostback()) {
            return;
        }
        readFromDatabase();
    }
private void readFromDatabase() {
//use _strID to read and set property   
}

Symbol for any number of any characters in regex?

Yes, there is one, it's the asterisk: *

a* // looks for 0 or more instances of "a"

This should be covered in any Java regex tutorial or documentation that you look up.

Finding which process was killed by Linux OOM killer

Now dstat provides the feature to find out in your running system which process is candidate for getting killed by oom mechanism

and as per man page

  --top-oom
          show process that will be killed by OOM the first

Convert Unix timestamp to a date string

As @TomMcKenzie says in a comment to another answer, date -r 123456789 is arguably a more common (i.e. more widely implemented) simple solution for times given as seconds since the Unix Epoch, but unfortunately there's no universal guaranteed portable solution.

The -d option on many types of systems means something entirely different than GNU Date's --date extension. Sadly GNU Date doesn't interpret -r the same as these other implementations. So unfortunately you have to know which version of date you're using, and many older Unix date commands don't support either option.

Even worse, POSIX date recognizes neither -d nor -r and provides no standard way in any command at all (that I know of) to format a Unix time from the command line (since POSIX Awk also lacks strftime()). (You can't use touch -t and ls because the former does not accept a time given as seconds since the Unix Epoch.)

Note though The One True Awk available direct from Brian Kernighan does now have the strftime() function built-in as well as a systime() function to return the current time in seconds since the Unix Epoch), so perhaps the Awk solution is the most portable.

jQuery get mouse position within an element

One way is to use the jQuery offset method to translate the event.pageX and event.pageY coordinates from the event into a mouse position relative to the parent. Here's an example for future reference:

$("#something").click(function(e){
   var parentOffset = $(this).parent().offset(); 
   //or $(this).offset(); if you really just want the current element's offset
   var relX = e.pageX - parentOffset.left;
   var relY = e.pageY - parentOffset.top;
});

How to: Create trigger for auto update modified date with SQL Server 2008

My approach:

  • define a default constraint on the ModDate column with a value of GETDATE() - this handles the INSERT case

  • have a AFTER UPDATE trigger to update the ModDate column

Something like:

CREATE TRIGGER trg_UpdateTimeEntry
ON dbo.TimeEntry
AFTER UPDATE
AS
    UPDATE dbo.TimeEntry
    SET ModDate = GETDATE()
    WHERE ID IN (SELECT DISTINCT ID FROM Inserted)

How to hide a navigation bar from first ViewController in Swift?

In Swift 3, you can use isNavigationBarHidden Property also to show or hide navigation bar

override func viewWillAppear(_ animated: Bool) {
    super.viewWillAppear(animated)
    // Hide the navigation bar for current view controller
    self.navigationController?.isNavigationBarHidden = true;
}

override func viewWillDisappear(_ animated: Bool) {
    super.viewWillDisappear(animated)
    // Show the navigation bar on other view controllers
   self.navigationController?.isNavigationBarHidden = false;
}

How can I temporarily disable a foreign key constraint in MySQL?

A very simple solution with phpMyAdmin:

  • In your table, go to the SQL tab
  • After you edit the SQL command that you want to run, there is a check box next to GO, named 'Enable foreign key checks' .
  • Uncheck this check box and run your SQL. It will be automatically rechecked after executing.

Laravel Eloquent: Ordering results of all()

You could still use sortBy (at the collection level) instead of orderBy (at the query level) if you still want to use all() since it returns a collection of objects.

Ascending Order

$results = Project::all()->sortBy("name");

Descending Order

$results = Project::all()->sortByDesc("name");

Check out the documentation about Collections for more details.

How to get twitter bootstrap modal to close (after initial launch)

Try specifying exactly the modal that the button should close with data-target. So your button should look like the following -

<button class="close" data-dismiss="modal" data-target="#myModal">×</button>

Also, you should only need bootstrap.modal.js so you can safely remove the others.

Edit: if this doesn't work then remove the visible-phone class and test it on your PC browser instead of the phone. This will show whether you are getting javascript errors or if its a compatibility issue for example.

Edit: Demo code

List<MyObject> findByInventoryIds(@Param("ids") List<Long> inventoryIdList);

ObjectiveC Parse Integer from String

NSArray *_returnedArguments = [serverOutput componentsSeparatedByString:@":"];

_returnedArguments is an array of NSStrings which the UITextField text property is expecting. No need to convert.

Syntax error:

[_appDelegate loggedIn:usernameField.text:passwordField.text:(int)[[_returnedArguments objectAtIndex:2] intValue]];

If your _appDelegate has a passwordField property, then you can set the text using the following

[[_appDelegate passwordField] setText:[_returnedArguments objectAtIndex:2]];
