Programs & Examples On #Viewwillappear

UIViewController instance method that notifies the view controller that its view is about to be added to a view hierarchy.

UIViewController viewDidLoad vs. viewWillAppear: What is the proper division of labor?

viewDidLoad is things you have to do once. viewWillAppear gets called every time the view appears. You should do things that you only have to do once in viewDidLoad - like setting your UILabel texts. However, you may want to modify a specific part of the view every time the user gets to view it, e.g. the iPod application scrolls the lyrics back to the top every time you go to the "Now Playing" view.

However, when you are loading things from a server, you also have to think about latency. If you pack all of your network communication into viewDidLoad or viewWillAppear, they will be executed before the user gets to see the view - possibly resulting a short freeze of your app. It may be good idea to first show the user an unpopulated view with an activity indicator of some sort. When you are done with your networking, which may take a second or two (or may even fail - who knows?), you can populate the view with your data. Good examples on how this could be done can be seen in various twitter clients. For example, when you view the author detail page in Twitterrific, the view only says "Loading..." until the network queries have completed.

Why does viewWillAppear not get called when an app comes back from the background?

It's even easier with SwiftUI:

var body: some View {     
    Text("Hello World")
    .onReceive(NotificationCenter.default.publisher(for: UIApplication.willResignActiveNotification)) { _ in
        print("Moving to background!")
    }
    .onReceive(NotificationCenter.default.publisher(for: UIApplication.willEnterForegroundNotification)) { _ in
        print("Moving back to foreground!")
    }   
}

Differences between socket.io and websockets

Im going to provide an argument against using socket.io.

I think using socket.io solely because it has fallbacks isnt a good idea. Let IE8 RIP.

In the past there have been many cases where new versions of NodeJS has broken socket.io. You can check these lists for examples... https://github.com/socketio/socket.io/issues?q=install+error

If you go to develop an Android app or something that needs to work with your existing app, you would probably be okay working with WS right away, socket.io might give you some trouble there...

Plus the WS module for Node.JS is amazingly simple to use.

How do I add my bot to a channel?

This is how I've added a bot to my channel and set up notifications:

  1. Make sure the channel is public (you can set it private later)
  2. Add administrators > Type the bot username and make it administrator
  3. Your bot will join your channel
  4. set a channel id by setting the channel url like

telegram.me/whateverIWantAndAvailable

the channel id will be @whateverIWantAndAvailable

Now set up your bot to send notifications by pusshing the messages here:

https://api.telegram.org/botTOKENOFTHEBOT/sendMessage?chat_id=@whateverIWantAndAvailable&text=Test

the message which bot will notify is: Test

I strongly suggest an urlencode of the message like

https://api.telegram.org/botTOKENOFTHEBOT/sendMessage?chat_id=@whateverIWantAndAvailable&text=Testing%20if%20this%20works

in php you can use urlencode("Test if this works"); in js you can encodeURIComponent("Test if this works");

I hope it helps

pass **kwargs argument to another function with **kwargs

Expanding on @gecco 's answer, the following is an example that'll show you the difference:

def foo(**kwargs):
    for entry in kwargs.items():
        print("Key: {}, value: {}".format(entry[0], entry[1]))

# call using normal keys:
foo(a=1, b=2, c=3)
# call using an unpacked dictionary:
foo(**{"a": 1, "b":2, "c":3})

# call using a dictionary fails because the function will think you are
# giving it a positional argument
foo({"a": 1, "b": 2, "c": 3})
# this yields the same error as any other positional argument
foo(3)
foo("string")

Here you can see how unpacking a dictionary works, and why sending an actual dictionary fails

Does Java have an exponential operator?

In case if anyone wants to create there own exponential function using recursion, below is for your reference.

public static double power(double value, double p) {
        if (p <= 0)
            return 1;

        return value * power(value, p - 1);
    }

How to push both value and key into PHP array

array_push($GET, $GET['one']=1);

It works for me.

How can I use querySelector on to pick an input element by name?

So ... you need to change some things in your code

<form method="POST" id="form-pass">
Password: <input type="text" name="pwd" id="input-pwd">
<input type="submit" value="Submit">
</form>

<script>
var form = document.querySelector('#form-pass');
var pwd = document.querySelector('#input-pwd');
pwd.focus();
form.onsubmit = checkForm;

function checkForm() {
  alert(pwd.value);
}
</script>

Try this way.

Flutter : Vertically center column

For me the problem was there was was Expanded inside the column which I had to remove and it worked.

Column(
          mainAxisAlignment: MainAxisAlignment.center,
          crossAxisAlignment: CrossAxisAlignment.center,
          children: <Widget>[
            Expanded( // remove this
              flex: 2,
              child: Text("content here"),
            ),
          ],
        )

PHP preg_match - only allow alphanumeric strings and - _ characters

Code:

if(preg_match('/[^a-z_\-0-9]/i', $string))
{
  echo "not valid string";
}

Explanation:

  • [] => character class definition
  • ^ => negate the class
  • a-z => chars from 'a' to 'z'
  • _ => underscore
  • - => hyphen '-' (You need to escape it)
  • 0-9 => numbers (from zero to nine)

The 'i' modifier at the end of the regex is for 'case-insensitive' if you don't put that you will need to add the upper case characters in the code before by doing A-Z

What is the default root pasword for MySQL 5.7

MySQL server 5.7 was already installed by default on my new Linux Mint 19.

But, what's the MySQL root password? It turns out that:

The default installation uses auth_socket for authentication, in lieu of passwords!

It allows a password-free login, provided that one is logged into the Linux system with the same user name. To login as the MySQL root user, one can use sudo:

sudo mysql --user=root

But how to then change the root password? To illustrate what's going on, I created a new user "me", with full privileges, with:

mysql> CREATE USER 'me'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'my_new_password';
mysql> GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON *.* TO 'me'@'localhost' WITH GRANT OPTION;
mysql> FLUSH PRIVILEGES;

Comparing "me" with "root":

mysql> SELECT user, plugin, HEX(authentication_string)  FROM mysql.user WHERE user = 'me' or user = 'root';
+------+-----------------------+----------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| user | plugin                | HEX(authentication_string)                                                 |
+------+-----------------------+----------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| root | auth_socket           |                                                                            |
| me   | mysql_native_password | 2A393846353030304545453239394634323734333139354241344642413245373537313... |
+------+-----------------------+----------------------------------------------------------------------------+

Because it's using auth_socket, the root password cannot be changed: the SET PASSWORD command fails, and mysql_secure_installation desn't attain anything...

==> To zap this alternate authentication mode and return the MySQL root user to using passwords:

ALTER USER 'root'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED WITH mysql_native_password BY 'SOME_NEW_ROOT_PASSWORD';

A good explanation.

LINQ Group By into a Dictionary Object

For @atari2600, this is what the answer would look like using ToLookup in lambda syntax:

var x = listOfCustomObjects
    .GroupBy(o => o.PropertyName)
    .ToLookup(customObject => customObject);

Basically, it takes the IGrouping and materializes it for you into a dictionary of lists, with the values of PropertyName as the key.

How do I run a program with a different working directory from current, from Linux shell?

If you want to perform this inside your program then I would do something like:

#include <unistd.h>
int main()
{
  if(chdir("/c") < 0 )  
  {
     printf("Failed\n");
     return -1 ;
  }

  // rest of your program...

}

How to run an .ipynb Jupyter Notebook from terminal?

From the command line you can convert a notebook to python with this command:

You may have to install the python mistune package:

sudo pip install -U mistune

What GRANT USAGE ON SCHEMA exactly do?

GRANTs on different objects are separate. GRANTing on a database doesn't GRANT rights to the schema within. Similiarly, GRANTing on a schema doesn't grant rights on the tables within.

If you have rights to SELECT from a table, but not the right to see it in the schema that contains it then you can't access the table.

The rights tests are done in order:

Do you have `USAGE` on the schema? 
    No:  Reject access. 
    Yes: Do you also have the appropriate rights on the table? 
        No:  Reject access. 
        Yes: Check column privileges.

Your confusion may arise from the fact that the public schema has a default GRANT of all rights to the role public, which every user/group is a member of. So everyone already has usage on that schema.

The phrase:

(assuming that the objects' own privilege requirements are also met)

Is saying that you must have USAGE on a schema to use objects within it, but having USAGE on a schema is not by itself sufficient to use the objects within the schema, you must also have rights on the objects themselves.

It's like a directory tree. If you create a directory somedir with file somefile within it then set it so that only your own user can access the directory or the file (mode rwx------ on the dir, mode rw------- on the file) then nobody else can list the directory to see that the file exists.

If you were to grant world-read rights on the file (mode rw-r--r--) but not change the directory permissions it'd make no difference. Nobody could see the file in order to read it, because they don't have the rights to list the directory.

If you instead set rwx-r-xr-x on the directory, setting it so people can list and traverse the directory but not changing the file permissions, people could list the file but could not read it because they'd have no access to the file.

You need to set both permissions for people to actually be able to view the file.

Same thing in Pg. You need both schema USAGE rights and object rights to perform an action on an object, like SELECT from a table.

(The analogy falls down a bit in that PostgreSQL doesn't have row-level security yet, so the user can still "see" that the table exists in the schema by SELECTing from pg_class directly. They can't interact with it in any way, though, so it's just the "list" part that isn't quite the same.)

nginx showing blank PHP pages

Many users fall in this thread expecting to find a solution for blank pages being displayed while using nginx+php-fpm, me being one of them. This is a recap of what I ended up doing after reading many of the answers here plus my own investigations (updated to php7.2):

1) Open /etc/php/7.2/fpm/pool.d/www.conf and check the value of parameter listen.

listen = /var/run/php/php7.2-fpm.sock

2) Parameter listen should match fastcgi_pass parameter in your site configuration file (i,e: /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/default).

fastcgi_pass unix:/var/run/php/php7.2-fpm.sock;

3) Check the file actually exists:

$ file /var/run/php/php7.2-fpm.sock 
/var/run/php/php7.2-fpm.sock: socket

4) If it doesn't exist that means php7.2-fpm is not running, so you need to restart it:

$ sudo /etc/init.d/php7.2-fpm restart
[ ok ] Restarting php7.2-fpm (via systemctl): php7.2-fpm.service.


With regard to the location section in /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/default:

   # pass PHP scripts to FastCGI server
   #
   location ~ \.php$ {
      include snippets/fastcgi-php.conf;

      # With php-fpm (or other unix sockets):
      fastcgi_pass unix:/var/run/php/php7.2-fpm.sock;
   }

Check the file snippets/fastcgi-php.conf exists at location /etc/nginx/:

$ file /etc/nginx/snippets/fastcgi-php.conf
/etc/nginx/snippets/fastcgi-php.conf: ASCII text

This file contains a list of variable definitions required by php7.2-fpm. The variables are defined directly or through an include of a separated file.

 include fastcgi.conf;

This file is located at /etc/nginx/fastcgi.conf and it looks like:

fastcgi_param  QUERY_STRING       $query_string;
fastcgi_param  REQUEST_METHOD     $request_method;
...
fastcgi_param  REDIRECT_STATUS    200;

nginx includes two possible parameter files: fastcgi_params and fastcgi.conf. The difference between both is the definition of variable SCRIPT_FILENAME:

$ diff fastcgi_params fastcgi.conf 
1a2
> fastcgi_param  SCRIPT_FILENAME    $document_root$fastcgi_script_name;

To make a long story short, fastcgi.conf should always work. If for some reason you're set up is using fastcgi_params, you should define SCRIPT_FILENAME:

location ~ \.php$ {
  include snippets/fastcgi-php.conf;

  # With php-fpm (or other unix sockets):
  fastcgi_pass unix:/var/run/php/php7.2-fpm.sock;

  fastcgi_param  SCRIPT_FILENAME    $document_root$fastcgi_script_name;
}

Now reload nginx configuration:

$ sudo nginx -s reload

And check a php file is displayed correctly. For instance:

/var/www/html/test.php

<pre><?php var_export($_SERVER)?></pre>

Where /var/www/html is the path to the document root.

If despite all that, you're still seeing a blank file, make sure your php.ini has short_open_tag enabled (if you're testing a PHP page with short tags).

How to keep indent for second line in ordered lists via CSS?

my solution is quite the same as Pumbaa80's one, but I suggest to use display: table instead of display:table-row for li element. So it will be something like this:

ol {
    counter-reset: foo; /* default display:list-item */
}

ol > li {
    counter-increment: foo;
    display: table; /* instead of table-row */
}

ol > li::before {
    content: counter(foo) ".";
    display: table-cell;
    text-align: right;
}

So now we can use margins for spacing between li's

asp.net: Invalid postback or callback argument

If you look at the first lines of text you can glean what your error is.

this feature verifies that arguments to postback or callback events originate from the server control that originally rendered them

You're dynamically editing the lstProblems dropdown, so when you post back ASP.NET says "Warning! Invalid entries in the dropdown!" and freaks out throwing that error. You have to determine if turning off event validation is an OK solution, but I would research it before doing it, since the idea behind it is to make your site more secure for free.

Here's another stackoverflow answer that does a much better job explaining what to do than me: Invalid postback or callback argument. Event validation is enabled using '<pages enableEventValidation="true"/>'

Nested JSON objects - do I have to use arrays for everything?

You don't need to use arrays.

JSON values can be arrays, objects, or primitives (numbers or strings).

You can write JSON like this:

{ 
    "stuff": {
        "onetype": [
            {"id":1,"name":"John Doe"},
            {"id":2,"name":"Don Joeh"}
        ],
        "othertype": {"id":2,"company":"ACME"}
    }, 
    "otherstuff": {
        "thing": [[1,42],[2,2]]
     }
}

You can use it like this:

obj.stuff.onetype[0].id
obj.stuff.othertype.id
obj.otherstuff.thing[0][1]  //thing is a nested array or a 2-by-2 matrix.
                            //I'm not sure whether you intended to do that.

How to call external url in jquery?

it is Cross-site scripting problem. Common modern browsers doesn't allow to send request to another url.

Python 3 sort a dict by its values

You can sort by values in reverse order (largest to smallest) using a dictionary comprehension:

{k: d[k] for k in sorted(d, key=d.get, reverse=True)}
# {'b': 4, 'a': 3, 'c': 2, 'd': 1}

If you want to sort by values in ascending order (smallest to largest)

{k: d[k] for k in sorted(d, key=d.get)}
# {'d': 1, 'c': 2, 'a': 3, 'b': 4}

If you want to sort by the keys in ascending order

{k: d[k] for k in sorted(d)}
# {'a': 3, 'b': 4, 'c': 2, 'd': 1}

This works on CPython 3.6+ and any implementation of Python 3.7+ because dictionaries keep insertion order.

how to create Socket connection in Android?

Simple socket server app example

I've already posted a client example at: https://stackoverflow.com/a/35971718/895245 , so here goes a server example.

This example app runs a server that returns a ROT-1 cypher of the input.

You would then need to add an Exit button + some sleep delays, but this should get you started.

To play with it:

What is “2's Complement”?

I read a fantastic explanation on Reddit by jng, using the odometer as an analogy.

enter image description here

It is a useful convention. The same circuits and logic operations that add / subtract positive numbers in binary still work on both positive and negative numbers if using the convention, that's why it's so useful and omnipresent.

Imagine the odometer of a car, it rolls around at (say) 99999. If you increment 00000 you get 00001. If you decrement 00000, you get 99999 (due to the roll-around). If you add one back to 99999 it goes back to 00000. So it's useful to decide that 99999 represents -1. Likewise, it is very useful to decide that 99998 represents -2, and so on. You have to stop somewhere, and also by convention, the top half of the numbers are deemed to be negative (50000-99999), and the bottom half positive just stand for themselves (00000-49999). As a result, the top digit being 5-9 means the represented number is negative, and it being 0-4 means the represented is positive - exactly the same as the top bit representing sign in a two's complement binary number.

Understanding this was hard for me too. Once I got it and went back to re-read the books articles and explanations (there was no internet back then), it turned out a lot of those describing it didn't really understand it. I did write a book teaching assembly language after that (which did sell quite well for 10 years).

Disable back button in react navigation

For latest version of React Navigation, even if you use null in some cases it may still show "back" written!

Go for this in your main app.js under your screen name or just go to your class file and add: -

static navigationOptions = {
   headerTitle:'Disable back Options',
   headerTitleStyle: {color:'white'},
   headerStyle: {backgroundColor:'black'},
   headerTintColor: 'red',
   headerForceInset: {vertical: 'never'},

Detect application heap size in Android

Debug.getNativeHeapSize() will do the trick, I should think. It's been there since 1.0, though.

The Debug class has lots of great methods for tracking allocations and other performance concerns. Also, if you need to detect a low-memory situation, check out Activity.onLowMemory().

SQL ORDER BY date problem

pandas GroupBy columns with NaN (missing) values

One small point to Andy Hayden's solution – it doesn't work (anymore?) because np.nan == np.nan yields False, so the replace function doesn't actually do anything.

What worked for me was this:

df['b'] = df['b'].apply(lambda x: x if not np.isnan(x) else -1)

(At least that's the behavior for Pandas 0.19.2. Sorry to add it as a different answer, I do not have enough reputation to comment.)

How to use if-else option in JSTL

This is good and efficient approach as per time complexity prospect. Once it will get a true condition , it will not check any other after this. In multiple If , it will check each and condition.

How to remove the border highlight on an input text element

Update 2020 - :focus-visible

Good news for accessibility - Chrome & Firefox just added support for :focus-visible.

Hiding focus styles is bad practice due to accessibility requirements (keyboard navigation) which makes your websites less accessible.

Use :focus-visible pseudo-class and let the browser to determinate when to apply focus.

:focus-visible /* Chrome */

Note that Firefox supports similar functionality through an older, prefixed pseudo-class:

:-moz-focusring /* Firefox */

Git cli: get user info from username

There are no "usernames" in Git.

When creating a commit with Git it uses the configuration values of user.name (the real name) and user.email (email address). Those config values can be overridden on the console by setting and exporting the environment variables GIT_{COMMITTER,AUTHOR}_{NAME,EMAIL}.

Git doesn't know anything about github's users, because github is not part of Git. So you're only left with an API call to github (I guess you could do that from the command line with a little scripting.)

Count number of occurences for each unique value

It is a one-line approach by using aggregate.

> aggregate(data.frame(count = v), list(value = v), length)

  value count
1     1    25
2     2    75

System.MissingMethodException: Method not found?

Just in case it helps anyone, although it's an old issue, my problem was a bit odd.

I had this error while using Jenkins.

Eventually found out that the system date was manually set to a future date, which caused dll to be compiled with that future date. When the date was set back to normal, MSBuild interpreted that the file was newer and didn't require recompile of the project.

How to apply bold text style for an entire row using Apache POI?

matplotlib: plot multiple columns of pandas data frame on the bar chart

Although the accepted answer works fine, since v0.21.0rc1 it gives a warning

UserWarning: Pandas doesn't allow columns to be created via a new attribute name

Instead, one can do

df[["X", "A", "B", "C"]].plot(x="X", kind="bar")

for ts, pkt in dpkt.pcap.Reader(open(filename,'r')):

    counter+=1
    eth=dpkt.ethernet.Ethernet(pkt) 
    if eth.type!=dpkt.ethernet.ETH_TYPE_IP:
       continue

    ip=eth.data
    ipcounter+=1

    if ip.p==dpkt.ip.IP_PROTO_TCP:

Android: Tabs at the BOTTOM

I was having the same problem with android tabs when trying to place them on the bottom of the screen. My scenario was to not use a layout file and create the tabs in code, I was also looking to fire activities from each tab which seemed a bit too complex using other approaches so, here is the sample code to overcome the problem:

Error CS1705: "which has a higher version than referenced assembly"

Handmade dll's collection folder
If you solution has a garbage folder for dll-files from different libraries
lib, source, libs, etc.
You can get this trouble if you'll open your solution (for a firs time) in Visual Studio. And your dll's collecting folder is missed for somehow or a concrete dll-file is missed.

Visual Studio will try silently to substitute dll's reference for something on its own. If VS will succeed then a new reference will be persistent for your local solution. Not for other clones/checkouts.

I.e. your <HintPath> will be ignored and you project file (.csproj) will not be changed.
As an example of me

<Reference Include="DocumentFormat.OpenXml, Version=2.0.5022.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31bf3856ad364e35, processorArchitecture=MSIL">
  <SpecificVersion>False</SpecificVersion>
  <HintPath>..\..\..\lib\DocumentFormat.OpenXml.dll</HintPath>
</Reference>

The DocumentFormat.OpenXml will be referenced from C:\Program Files (x86)\Open XML SDK\V2.5\lib not from a solution\..\lib folder.

fast Workaround

  • check and restore you dll's collecting folder
  • from Solution Explorer do Unload Project, then Reload Project.

right Workaround is to migrate to NuGet package manager.

How to add "required" attribute to mvc razor viewmodel text input editor

You can use the required html attribute if you want:

@Html.TextBoxFor(m => m.ShortName, 
new { @class = "form-control", placeholder = "short name", required="required"})

or you can use the RequiredAttribute class in .Net. With jQuery the RequiredAttribute can Validate on the front end and server side. If you want to go the MVC route, I'd suggest reading Data annotations MVC3 Required attribute.

OR

You can get really advanced:

@{
  // if you aren't using UnobtrusiveValidation, don't pass anything to this constructor
  var attributes = new Dictionary<string, object>(
    Html.GetUnobtrusiveValidationAttributes(ViewData.TemplateInfo.HtmlFieldPrefix));

 attributes.Add("class", "form-control");
 attributes.Add("placeholder", "short name");

  if (ViewData.ModelMetadata.ContainerType
      .GetProperty(ViewData.ModelMetadata.PropertyName)
      .GetCustomAttributes(typeof(RequiredAttribute), true)
      .Select(a => a as RequiredAttribute)
      .Any(a => a != null))
  {
   attributes.Add("required", "required");
  }

  @Html.TextBoxFor(m => m.ShortName, attributes)

}

or if you need it for multiple editor templates:

public static class ViewPageExtensions
{
  public static IDictionary<string, object> GetAttributes(this WebViewPage instance)
  {
    // if you aren't using UnobtrusiveValidation, don't pass anything to this constructor
    var attributes = new Dictionary<string, object>(
      instance.Html.GetUnobtrusiveValidationAttributes(
         instance.ViewData.TemplateInfo.HtmlFieldPrefix));

    if (ViewData.ModelMetadata.ContainerType
      .GetProperty(ViewData.ModelMetadata.PropertyName)
      .GetCustomAttributes(typeof(RequiredAttribute), true)
      .Select(a => a as RequiredAttribute)
      .Any(a => a != null))
    {
      attributes.Add("required", "required");
    }
  }
}

then in your templates:

@{
  // if you aren't using UnobtrusiveValidation, don't pass anything to this constructor
  var attributes = this.GetAttributes();

  attributes.Add("class", "form-control");
  attributes.Add("placeholder", "short name");

  @Html.TextBoxFor(m => m.ShortName, attributes)

}

Update 1 (for Tomas who is unfamilar with ViewData).

What's the difference between ViewData and ViewBag?

Excerpt:

So basically it (ViewBag) replaces magic strings:

ViewData["Foo"]

with magic properties:

ViewBag.Foo

What is the Swift equivalent to Objective-C's "@synchronized"?

You can use GCD. It is a little more verbose than @synchronized, but works as a replacement:

let serialQueue = DispatchQueue(label: "com.test.mySerialQueue")
serialQueue.sync {
    // code
}

find -mtime files older than 1 hour

What about -mmin?

find /var/www/html/audio -daystart -maxdepth 1 -mmin +59 -type f -name "*.mp3" \
    -exec rm -f {} \;

From man find:

-mmin n
        File's data was last modified n minutes ago.

Also, make sure to test this first!

... -exec echo rm -f '{}' \;
          ^^^^ Add the 'echo' so you just see the commands that are going to get
               run instead of actual trying them first.

Conda: Installing / upgrading directly from github

The answers are outdated. You simply have to conda install pip and git. Then you can use pip normally:

  1. Activate your conda environment source activate myenv

  2. conda install git pip

  3. pip install git+git://github.com/scrappy/scrappy@master

Globally catch exceptions in a WPF application?

Use the Application.DispatcherUnhandledException Event. See this question for a summary (see Drew Noakes' answer).

Be aware that there'll be still exceptions which preclude a successful resuming of your application, like after a stack overflow, exhausted memory, or lost network connectivity while you're trying to save to the database.

Order data frame rows according to vector with specific order

If you don't want to use any libraries and you have reoccurrences in your data, you can use which with sapply as well.

new_order <- sapply(target, function(x,df){which(df$name == x)}, df=df)
df        <- df[new_order,]

Static methods in Python?

I think that Steven is actually right. To answer the original question, then, in order to set up a class method, simply assume that the first argument is not going to be a calling instance, and then make sure that you only call the method from the class.

(Note that this answer refers to Python 3.x. In Python 2.x you'll get a TypeError for calling the method on the class itself.)

For example:

class Dog:
    count = 0 # this is a class variable
    dogs = [] # this is a class variable

    def __init__(self, name):
        self.name = name #self.name is an instance variable
        Dog.count += 1
        Dog.dogs.append(name)

    def bark(self, n): # this is an instance method
        print("{} says: {}".format(self.name, "woof! " * n))

    def rollCall(n): #this is implicitly a class method (see comments below)
        print("There are {} dogs.".format(Dog.count))
        if n >= len(Dog.dogs) or n < 0:
            print("They are:")
            for dog in Dog.dogs:
                print("  {}".format(dog))
        else:
            print("The dog indexed at {} is {}.".format(n, Dog.dogs[n]))

fido = Dog("Fido")
fido.bark(3)
Dog.rollCall(-1)
rex = Dog("Rex")
Dog.rollCall(0)

In this code, the "rollCall" method assumes that the first argument is not an instance (as it would be if it were called by an instance instead of a class). As long as "rollCall" is called from the class rather than an instance, the code will work fine. If we try to call "rollCall" from an instance, e.g.:

rex.rollCall(-1)

however, it would cause an exception to be raised because it would send two arguments: itself and -1, and "rollCall" is only defined to accept one argument.

Incidentally, rex.rollCall() would send the correct number of arguments, but would also cause an exception to be raised because now n would be representing a Dog instance (i.e., rex) when the function expects n to be numerical.

This is where the decoration comes in: If we precede the "rollCall" method with

@staticmethod

then, by explicitly stating that the method is static, we can even call it from an instance. Now,

rex.rollCall(-1)

would work. The insertion of @staticmethod before a method definition, then, stops an instance from sending itself as an argument.

You can verify this by trying the following code with and without the @staticmethod line commented out.

class Dog:
    count = 0 # this is a class variable
    dogs = [] # this is a class variable

    def __init__(self, name):
        self.name = name #self.name is an instance variable
        Dog.count += 1
        Dog.dogs.append(name)

    def bark(self, n): # this is an instance method
        print("{} says: {}".format(self.name, "woof! " * n))

    @staticmethod
    def rollCall(n):
        print("There are {} dogs.".format(Dog.count))
        if n >= len(Dog.dogs) or n < 0:
            print("They are:")
            for dog in Dog.dogs:
                print("  {}".format(dog))
        else:
            print("The dog indexed at {} is {}.".format(n, Dog.dogs[n]))


fido = Dog("Fido")
fido.bark(3)
Dog.rollCall(-1)
rex = Dog("Rex")
Dog.rollCall(0)
rex.rollCall(-1)

How to create a DataFrame from a text file in Spark

I have given different ways to create DataFrame from text file

val conf = new SparkConf().setAppName(appName).setMaster("local")
val sc = SparkContext(conf)

raw text file

val file = sc.textFile("C:\\vikas\\spark\\Interview\\text.txt")
val fileToDf = file.map(_.split(",")).map{case Array(a,b,c) => 
(a,b.toInt,c)}.toDF("name","age","city")
fileToDf.foreach(println(_))

spark session without schema

import org.apache.spark.sql.SparkSession
val sparkSess = 
SparkSession.builder().appName("SparkSessionZipsExample")
.config(conf).getOrCreate()

val df = sparkSess.read.option("header", 
"false").csv("C:\\vikas\\spark\\Interview\\text.txt")
df.show()

spark session with schema

import org.apache.spark.sql.types._
val schemaString = "name age city"
val fields = schemaString.split(" ").map(fieldName => StructField(fieldName, 
StringType, nullable=true))
val schema = StructType(fields)

val dfWithSchema = sparkSess.read.option("header", 
"false").schema(schema).csv("C:\\vikas\\spark\\Interview\\text.txt")
dfWithSchema.show()

using sql context

import org.apache.spark.sql.SQLContext

val fileRdd = 
sc.textFile("C:\\vikas\\spark\\Interview\\text.txt").map(_.split(",")).map{x 
=> org.apache.spark.sql.Row(x:_*)}
val sqlDf = sqlCtx.createDataFrame(fileRdd,schema)
sqlDf.show()

How do I get a list of files in a directory in C++?

Here's an example in C on Linux. That's if, you're on Linux and don't mind doing this small bit in ANSI C.

#include <dirent.h>

DIR *dpdf;
struct dirent *epdf;

dpdf = opendir("./");
if (dpdf != NULL){
   while (epdf = readdir(dpdf)){
      printf("Filename: %s",epdf->d_name);
      // std::cout << epdf->d_name << std::endl;
   }
}
closedir(dpdf);

How do I search for names with apostrophe in SQL Server?

Brackets are used around identifiers, so your code will look for the field %'% in the Header table. You want to use a string insteaed. To put an apostrophe in a string literal you use double apostrophes.

SELECT *
FROM Header WHERE userID LIKE '%''%'

push() a two-dimensional array

Create am array and put inside the first, in this case i get data from JSON response

$.getJSON('/Tool/GetAllActiviesStatus/',
   var dataFC = new Array();
   function (data) {
      for (var i = 0; i < data.Result.length; i++) {
          var serie = new Array(data.Result[i].FUNCAO, data.Result[i].QT, true, true);
          dataFC.push(serie);
       });

Font Awesome icon inside text input element

You could use a wrapper. Inside the wrapper, add the font awesome element i and the input element.

<div class="wrapper">
    <i class="fa fa-icon"></i>
    <input type="button">
</div>

then set the wrapper's position to relative:

.wrapper { position: relative; }

and then set the i element's position to absolute, and set the correct place for it:

i.fa-icon { position: absolute; top: 10px; left: 50px; }

(It's a hack, I know, but it gets the job done.)

HTML5 best practices; section/header/aside/article elements

Why not have the item_1, item_2, etc. IDs on the article tags themselves? Like this:

<article id="item_1">
...
</article>
<article id="item_2">
...
</article>
...

It seems unnecessary to add the wrapper divs. ID values have no semantic meaning in HTML, so I think it would be perfectly valid to do this - you're not saying that the first article is always item_1, just item_1 within the context of the current page. IDs are not required to have any meaning that is independent of context.

Also, as to your question on line 26, I don't think the <header> tag is required there, and I think you could omit it since it's on its own in the "main-left" div. If it were in the main list of articles you might want to include the <header> tag just for the sake of consistency.

Using unset vs. setting a variable to empty

Mostly you don't see a difference, unless you are using set -u:

/home/user1> var=""
/home/user1> echo $var

/home/user1> set -u
/home/user1> echo $var

/home/user1> unset var
/home/user1> echo $var
-bash: var: unbound variable

So really, it depends on how you are going to test the variable.

I will add that my preferred way of testing if it is set is:

[[ -n $var ]]  # True if the length of $var is non-zero

or

[[ -z $var ]]  # True if zero length

Detecting scroll direction

It can be detected by storing the previous scrollTop value and comparing the current scrollTop value with it.

JavaScript :

var lastScrollTop = 0;

// element should be replaced with the actual target element on which you have applied scroll, use window in case of no target element.
element.addEventListener("scroll", function(){ // or window.addEventListener("scroll"....
   var st = window.pageYOffset || document.documentElement.scrollTop; // Credits: "https://github.com/qeremy/so/blob/master/so.dom.js#L426"
   if (st > lastScrollTop){
      // downscroll code
   } else {
      // upscroll code
   }
   lastScrollTop = st <= 0 ? 0 : st; // For Mobile or negative scrolling
}, false);

var html = 'Hello from <img src="http://stackoverflow.com/favicon.ico" alt="SO">';_x000D_
var iframe = document.querySelector('iframe');_x000D_
iframe.src = 'data:text/html,' + encodeURIComponent(html);
_x000D_
<iframe></iframe>

Colorized grep -- viewing the entire file with highlighted matches

It might seem like a dirty hack.

grep "^\|highlight1\|highlight2\|highlight3" filename

Which means - match the beginning of the line(^) or highlight1 or highlight2 or highlight3. As a result, you will get highlighted all highlight* pattern matches, even in the same line.

How to enable support of CPU virtualization on Macbook Pro?

CPU Virtualization is enabled by default on all MacBooks with compatible CPUs (i7 is compatible). You can try to reset PRAM if you think it was disabled somehow, but I doubt it.

I think the issue might be in the old version of OS. If your MacBook is i7, then you better upgrade OS to something newer.

Using "If cell contains" in VBA excel

Private Sub Workbook_SheetChange(ByVal Sh As Object, ByVal Target As Range)

If Not Intersect(Target, Range("C6:ZZ6")) Is Nothing Then

    If InStr(UCase(Target.Value), "TOTAL") > 0 Then
        Target.Offset(1, 0) = "-"
    End If

End If

End Sub

This will allow you to add columns dynamically and automatically insert a dash underneath any columns in the C row after 6 containing case insensitive "Total". Note: If you go past ZZ6, you will need to change the code, but this should get you where you need to go.

Can I change the viewport meta tag in mobile safari on the fly?

I realize this is a little old, but, yes it can be done. Some javascript to get you started:

viewport = document.querySelector("meta[name=viewport]");
viewport.setAttribute('content', 'width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0, maximum-scale=1.0, user-scalable=0');

Just change the parts you need and Mobile Safari will respect the new settings.

Update:

If you don't already have the meta viewport tag in the source, you can append it directly with something like this:

var metaTag=document.createElement('meta');
metaTag.name = "viewport"
metaTag.content = "width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0, maximum-scale=1.0, user-scalable=0"
document.getElementsByTagName('head')[0].appendChild(metaTag);

Or if you're using jQuery:

$('head').append('<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0, maximum-scale=1.0, user-scalable=0">');

Set variable value to array of strings

In SQL you can not have a variable array.
However, the best alternative solution is to use a temporary table.

Find and replace in file and overwrite file doesn't work, it empties the file

With all due respect to the above correct answers, it's always a good idea to "dry run" scripts like that, so that you don't corrupt your file and have to start again from scratch.

Just get your script to spill the output to the command line instead of writing it to the file, for example, like that:

sed -e s/STRING_TO_REPLACE/STRING_TO_REPLACE_IT/g index.html

OR

less index.html | sed -e s/STRING_TO_REPLACE/STRING_TO_REPLACE_IT/g 

This way you can see and check the output of the command without getting your file truncated.

C++ style cast from unsigned char * to const char *

unsigned char* is basically a byte array and should be used to represent raw data rather than a string generally. A unicode string would be represented as wchar_t*

According to the C++ standard a reinterpret_cast between unsigned char* and char* is safe as they are the same size and have the same construction and constraints. I try to avoid reintrepret_cast even more so than const_cast in general.

If static cast fails with what you are doing you may want to reconsider your design because frankly if you are using C++ you may want to take advantage of what the "plus plus" part offers and use string classes and STL (aka std::basic_string might work better for you)

How to change the type of a field?

I need to change datatype of multiple fields in the collection, so I used the following to make multiple data type changes in the collection of documents. Answer to an old question but may be helpful for others.

db.mycoll.find().forEach(function(obj) { 

    if (obj.hasOwnProperty('phone')) {
        obj.phone = "" + obj.phone;  // int or longint to string
    }

    if (obj.hasOwnProperty('field-name')) {
     obj.field-name = new NumberInt(obj.field-name); //string to integer
    }

    if (obj.hasOwnProperty('cdate')) {
        obj.cdate = new ISODate(obj.cdate); //string to Date
    }

    db.mycoll.save(obj); 
});

ArrayList - How to modify a member of an object?

When do I need to use Begin / End Blocks and the Go keyword in SQL Server?

After wrestling with this problem today my opinion is this: BEGIN...END brackets code just like {....} does in C languages, e.g. code blocks for if...else and loops

GO is (must be) used when succeeding statements rely on an object defined by a previous statement. USE database is a good example above, but the following will also bite you:

alter table foo add bar varchar(8);
-- if you don't put GO here then the following line will error as it doesn't know what bar is.
update foo set bar = 'bacon';
-- need a GO here to tell the interpreter to execute this statement, otherwise the Parser will lump it together with all successive statements.

It seems to me the problem is this: the SQL Server SQL Parser, unlike the Oracle one, is unable to realise that you're defining a new symbol on the first line and that it's ok to reference in the following lines. It doesn't "see" the symbol until it encounters a GO token which tells it to execute the preceding SQL since the last GO, at which point the symbol is applied to the database and becomes visible to the parser.

Why it doesn't just treat the semi-colon as a semantic break and apply statements individually I don't know and wish it would. Only bonus I can see is that you can put a print() statement just before the GO and if any of the statements fail the print won't execute. Lot of trouble for a minor gain though.

Append a dictionary to a dictionary

There are two ways to add one dictionary to another.

Update (modifies orig in place)

orig.update(extra)    # Python 2.7+
orig |= extra         # Python 3.9+

Merge (creates a new dictionary)

# Python 2.7+
dest = collections.ChainMap(orig, extra)
dest = {k: v for d in (orig, extra) for (k, v) in d.items()}

# Python 3
dest = {**orig, **extra}          
dest = {**orig, 'D': 4, 'E': 5}

# Python 3.9+ 
dest = orig | extra

Note that these operations are noncommutative. In all cases, the latter is the winner. E.g.

orig  = {'A': 1, 'B': 2}
extra = {'A': 3, 'C': 3}

dest = orig | extra
# dest = {'A': 3, 'B': 2, 'C': 3}

dest = extra | orig
# dest = {'A': 1, 'B': 2, 'C': 3}

It is also important to note that only from Python 3.7 (and CPython 3.6) dicts are ordered. So, in previous versions, the order of the items in the dictionary may vary.

How to stop a thread created by implementing runnable interface?

The simplest way is to interrupt() it, which will cause Thread.currentThread().isInterrupted() to return true, and may also throw an InterruptedException under certain circumstances where the Thread is waiting, for example Thread.sleep(), otherThread.join(), object.wait() etc.

Inside the run() method you would need catch that exception and/or regularly check the Thread.currentThread().isInterrupted() value and do something (for example, break out).

Note: Although Thread.interrupted() seems the same as isInterrupted(), it has a nasty side effect: Calling interrupted() clears the interrupted flag, whereas calling isInterrupted() does not.

Other non-interrupting methods involve the use of "stop" (volatile) flags that the running Thread monitors.

Confused about __str__ on list in Python

Answer to the question

As pointed out in another answer and as you can read in PEP 3140, str on a list calls for each item __repr__. There is not much you can do about that part.

If you implement __repr__, you will get something more descriptive, but if implemented correctly, not exactly what you expected.

Proper implementation

The fast, but wrong solution is to alias __repr__ to __str__.

__repr__ should not be set to __str__ unconditionally. __repr__ should create a representation, that should look like a valid Python expression that could be used to recreate an object with the same value. In this case, this would rather be Node(2) than 2.

A proper implementation of __repr__ makes it possible to recreate the object. In this example, it should also contain the other significant members, like neighours and distance.

An incomplete example:

class Node:

    def __init__(self, id, neighbours=[], distance=0):
        self.id = id
        self.neighbours = neighbours
        self.distance = distance


    def __str__(self):
        return str(self.id)


    def __repr__(self):
        return "Node(id={0.id}, neighbours={0.neighbours!r}, distance={0.distance})".format(self)
        # in an elaborate implementation, members that have the default
        # value could be left out, but this would hide some information


uno = Node(1)    
due = Node(2)    
tri = Node(3)    
qua = Node(4)

print uno
print str(uno)
print repr(uno)

uno.neighbours.append([[due, 4], [tri, 5]])

print uno
print uno.neighbours
print repr(uno)

Note: print repr(uno) together with a proper implementation of __eq__ and __ne__ or __cmp__ would allow to recreate the object and check for equality.

Under what circumstances can I call findViewById with an Options Menu / Action Bar item?

I am trying to obtain a handle on one of the views in the Action Bar

I will assume that you mean something established via android:actionLayout in your <item> element of your <menu> resource.

I have tried calling findViewById(R.id.menu_item)

To retrieve the View associated with your android:actionLayout, call findItem() on the Menu to retrieve the MenuItem, then call getActionView() on the MenuItem. This can be done any time after you have inflated the menu resource.

JQuery: 'Uncaught TypeError: Illegal invocation' at ajax request - several elements

From the jQuery docs for processData:

processData Boolean
Default: true
By default, data passed in to the data option as an object (technically, anything other than a string) will be processed and transformed into a query string, fitting to the default content-type "application/x-www-form-urlencoded". If you want to send a DOMDocument, or other non-processed data, set this option to false.

Source: http://api.jquery.com/jquery.ajax

Looks like you are going to have to use processData to send your data to the server, or modify your php script to support querystring encoded parameters.

What does the ^ (XOR) operator do?

A little more information on XOR operation.

  • XOR a number with itself odd number of times the result is number itself.
  • XOR a number even number of times with itself, the result is 0.
  • Also XOR with 0 is always the number itself.

  2. Change the directory to the location where your rake file is present.
  3. run rake task_name.
  4. In the above case, run rake iqmedier - will run only iqmedir task.
  5. run rake euroads - will run only the euroads task.
  6. To Run all the tasks in that file assign the following inside the same file and run rake all

Change the color of a checked menu item in a navigation drawer

Well you can achieve this using Color State Resource. If you notice inside your NavigationView you're using

app:itemIconTint="@color/black"
app:itemTextColor="@color/primary_text"

Here instead of using @color/black or @color/primary_test, use a Color State List Resource. For that, first create a new xml (e.g drawer_item.xml) inside color directory (which should be inside res directory.) If you don't have a directory named color already, create one.

Now inside drawer_item.xml do something like this

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<selector xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
    <item android:color="checked state color" android:state_checked="true" />
    <item android:color="your default color" />
</selector>

Final step would be to change your NavigationView

<android.support.design.widget.NavigationView
    android:id="@+id/activity_main_navigationview"
    android:layout_width="wrap_content"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    android:layout_gravity="start"
    app:headerLayout="@layout/drawer_header"
    app:itemIconTint="@color/drawer_item"  // notice here
    app:itemTextColor="@color/drawer_item" // and here
    app:itemBackground="@android:color/transparent"// and here for setting the background color to tranparent
    app:menu="@menu/menu_drawer">

Like this you can use separate Color State List Resources for IconTint, ItemTextColor, ItemBackground.

Now when you set an item as checked (either in xml or programmatically), the particular item will have different color than the unchecked ones.

List comprehension vs. lambda + filter

In addition to the accepted answer, there is a corner case when you should use filter instead of a list comprehension. If the list is unhashable you cannot directly process it with a list comprehension. A real world example is if you use pyodbc to read results from a database. The fetchAll() results from cursor is an unhashable list. In this situation, to directly manipulating on the returned results, filter should be used:

cursor.execute("SELECT * FROM TABLE1;")
data_from_db = cursor.fetchall()
processed_data = filter(lambda s: 'abc' in s.field1 or s.StartTime >= start_date_time, data_from_db) 

If you use list comprehension here you will get the error:

TypeError: unhashable type: 'list'

How to destroy JWT Tokens on logout?

On Logout from the Client Side, the easiest way is to remove the token from the storage of browser.

But, What if you want to destroy the token on the Node server -

The problem with JWT package is that it doesn't provide any method or way to destroy the token.

So in order to destroy the token on the serverside you may use jwt-redis package instead of JWT

This library (jwt-redis) completely repeats the entire functionality of the library jsonwebtoken, with one important addition. Jwt-redis allows you to store the token label in redis to verify validity. The absence of a token label in redis makes the token not valid. To destroy the token in jwt-redis, there is a destroy method

it works in this way :

1) Install jwt-redis from npm

2) To Create -

var redis = require('redis');
var JWTR =  require('jwt-redis').default;
var redisClient = redis.createClient();
var jwtr = new JWTR(redisClient);

jwtr.sign(payload, secret)
    .then((token)=>{
            // your code
    })
    .catch((error)=>{
            // error handling
    });

3) To verify -

jwtr.verify(token, secret);

4) To Destroy -

jwtr.destroy(token)

Note : you can provide expiresIn during signin of token in the same as it is provided in JWT.

Why cannot change checkbox color whatever I do?

I also had this problem. I use chrome to code because I'm currently a newbie. I was able to change the colour of the checkboxes and radio selectors when they were checked ONLY using CSS. The current degree that is set in the hue-rotate() turns the blue checks red. I first used the grayscale(1) with the filter: but you don't need it. However, if you just want plain flat gray, go for the grayscale value for filter.

I've ONLY tested this in Chrome but it works with just plain old HTML and CSS, let me know in the comments section if it works in other browsers.

Original Answer:

Try this:

let obj = { a: 4, b: 0.5 , c: 0.35, d: 5 };
var arr = Object.keys( obj ).map(function ( key ) { return obj[key]; });

and then:

var min = Math.min.apply( null, arr );
var max = Math.max.apply( null, arr );

Initialising an array of fixed size in python

Well I would like to help you by posting a sample program and its output

Program:

t = input("")
x = [None]*t
y = [[None]*t]*t

for i in range(1, t+1):
    x[i-1] = i;

    for j in range(1, t+1):
        y[i-1][j-1] = j;

print x
print y

Output :-

2
[1, 2]
[[1, 2], [1, 2]]

I hope this clears some very basic concept of yours regarding their declaration. To initialize them with some other specific values, like initializing them with 0.. you can declare them as:

x = [0]*10

Hope it helps..!! ;)

Sorting Directory.GetFiles()

You are correct, the default is my name asc. The only way I have found to change the sort order it to create a datatable from the FileInfo collection.

You can then used the DefaultView from the datatable and sort the directory with the .Sort method.

This is quite involve and fairly slow but I'm hoping someone will post a better solution.

How to install older version of node.js on Windows?

How to output to the console and file?

I came up with this [untested]

import sys

class Tee(object):
    def __init__(self, *files):
        self.files = files
    def write(self, obj):
        for f in self.files:
            f.write(obj)
            f.flush() # If you want the output to be visible immediately
    def flush(self) :
        for f in self.files:
            f.flush()

f = open('out.txt', 'w')
original = sys.stdout
sys.stdout = Tee(sys.stdout, f)
print "test"  # This will go to stdout and the file out.txt

#use the original
sys.stdout = original
print "This won't appear on file"  # Only on stdout
f.close()

print>>xyz in python will expect a write() function in xyz. You could use your own custom object which has this. Or else, you could also have sys.stdout refer to your object, in which case it will be tee-ed even without >>xyz.

Parse an HTML string with JS

EDIT: The solution below is only for HTML "fragments" since html,head and body are removed. I guess the solution for this question is DOMParser's parseFromString() method.


For HTML fragments, the solutions listed here works for most HTML, however for certain cases it won't work.

For example try parsing <td>Test</td>. This one won't work on the div.innerHTML solution nor DOMParser.prototype.parseFromString nor range.createContextualFragment solution. The td tag goes missing and only the text remains.

Only jQuery handles that case well.

So the future solution (MS Edge 13+) is to use template tag:

function parseHTML(html) {
    var t = document.createElement('template');
    t.innerHTML = html;
    return t.content.cloneNode(true);
}

var documentFragment = parseHTML('<td>Test</td>');

For older browsers I have extracted jQuery's parseHTML() method into an independent gist - https://gist.github.com/Munawwar/6e6362dbdf77c7865a99

Tokenizing strings in C

I've made some string functions in order to split values, by using less pointers as I could because this code is intended to run on PIC18F processors. Those processors does not handle really good with pointers when you have few free RAM available:

   int i = 0, pos = 0, fnd = 0;

    while(i < Times) {
       fnd = findchar(string, pos, C);
        if(fnd < 0) return -1;
        if(fnd > 0) pos = fnd;

    out[size] = 0;
}

void getvalue(char *out, int index) {
    mid(POSTREQ, out, findcharn(POSTREQ, index, '='), (findcharn(POSTREQ, index, '&') - 1));
}

void main() {

In order to do the database style ComboBoxes manually trying to setup a relationship between a number (internal) and some text (visible), I've found you have to:

  1. Store you items in a list (You are close - except the string,string - need int,string)
  2. DataSource property to the list (You are good)
  3. DataMember,DataValue (You are good)
  4. Load default value (You are good)
  5. Put in value from database (Your question)
  6. Get value to put back in database (Your next question)

First things first. Change your KeyValuePair to so it looks like:

(0,"Select") (1,"Option 1")

Now, when you run your sql "Select empstatus from employees where blah" and get back an integer, you need to set the combobox without wasting a bunch of time.

Simply: *** SelectedVALUE - not Item ****

cmbEmployeeStatus.SelectedValue = 3;   //or

cmbEmployeeStatus.SelectedValue = intResultFromQuery;   

This will work whether you have manually loaded the combobox with code values, as you did, or if you load the comboBox from a query.

If your foreign keys are integers, (which for what I do, they all are), life is easy. After the user makes the change to the comboBox, the value you will store in the database is SelectedValue. (Cast to int as needed.)

Here is my code to set the ComboBox to the value from the database:

if (t is DBInt) //Typical for ComboBox stuff
    {
    cb.SelectedValue = ((DBInt)t).value;
    }

And to retrieve:

((DBInt)t).value = (int) cb.SelectedValue;

DBInt is a wrapper for an Integer, but this is part of my ORM that gives me manual control over databinding, and reduces code errors.

Why did I answer this so late? I was struggling with this also, as there seems to be no good info on the web about how to do this. I figured it out, and thought I'd be nice and post it for someone else to see.

Is there a difference between PhoneGap and Cordova commands?

Now a days phonegap and cordova is owned by Adobe. Only name conversation was different. For install plugin functionality , we should use same command for phonegap and cordova too.

Command : cordova plugin add cordova-plugin-photo-library

Here,

  • cordova - keyword for initiator
  • plugin - initialize a plugin
  • cordova plugin photo library - plugin name.

You can also find more plugin from https://cordova.apache.org/docs/en/latest/

How to create file object from URL object (image)

You can convert the URL to a String and use it to create a new File. e.g.

URL url = new URL("http://google.com/pathtoaimage.jpg");
File f = new File(url.getFile());

Send HTTP POST message in ASP.NET Core using HttpClient PostAsJsonAsync

You should add reference to "Microsoft.AspNet.WebApi.Client" package (read this article for samples).

Without any additional extension, you may use standard PostAsync method:

client.PostAsync(uri, new StringContent(jsonInString, Encoding.UTF8, "application/json"));

where jsonInString value you can get by calling JsonConvert.SerializeObject(<your object>);

Java Byte Array to String to Byte Array

The kind of output you are seeing from your byte array ([B@405217f8) is also an output for a zero length byte array (ie new byte[0]). It looks like this string is a reference to the array rather than a description of the contents of the array like we might expect from a regular collection's toString() method.

As with other respondents, I would point you to the String constructors that accept a byte[] parameter to construct a string from the contents of a byte array. You should be able to read raw bytes from a socket's InputStream if you want to obtain bytes from a TCP connection.

If you have already read those bytes as a String (using an InputStreamReader), then, the string can be converted to bytes using the getBytes() function. Be sure to pass in your desired character set to both the String constructor and getBytes() functions, and this will only work if the byte data can be converted to characters by the InputStreamReader.

If you want to deal with raw bytes you should really avoid using this stream reader layer.

How to upload a file and JSON data in Postman?

You must first find the nearly-invisible pale-grey-on-white dropdown for File which is the magic key that unlocks the Choose Files button.

After you choose POST, then choose Body->form-data, then find the File dropdown, and then choose 'File', only then will the 'Choose Files' button magically appear:

Getting a union of two arrays in JavaScript

You can use a jQuery plugin: jQuery Array Utilities

For example the code below

$.union([1, 2, 2, 3], [2, 3, 4, 5, 5])

will return [1,2,3,4,5]

How to create custom exceptions in Java?

To define a checked exception you create a subclass (or hierarchy of subclasses) of java.lang.Exception. For example:

public class FooException extends Exception {
  public FooException() { super(); }
  public FooException(String message) { super(message); }
  public FooException(String message, Throwable cause) { super(message, cause); }
  public FooException(Throwable cause) { super(cause); }
}

Methods that can potentially throw or propagate this exception must declare it:

public void calculate(int i) throws FooException, IOException;

... and code calling this method must either handle or propagate this exception (or both):

try {
  int i = 5;
  myObject.calculate(5);
} catch(FooException ex) {
  // Print error and terminate application.
  ex.printStackTrace();
  System.exit(1);
} catch(IOException ex) {
  // Rethrow as FooException.
  throw new FooException(ex);
}

You'll notice in the above example that IOException is caught and rethrown as FooException. This is a common technique used to encapsulate exceptions (typically when implementing an API).

Sometimes there will be situations where you don't want to force every method to declare your exception implementation in its throws clause. In this case you can create an unchecked exception. An unchecked exception is any exception that extends java.lang.RuntimeException (which itself is a subclass of java.lang.Exception):

public class FooRuntimeException extends RuntimeException {
  ...
}

Methods can throw or propagate FooRuntimeException exception without declaring it; e.g.

public void calculate(int i) {
  if (i < 0) {
    throw new FooRuntimeException("i < 0: " + i);
  }
}

Unchecked exceptions are typically used to denote a programmer error, for example passing an invalid argument to a method or attempting to breach an array index bounds.

The java.lang.Throwable class is the root of all errors and exceptions that can be thrown within Java. java.lang.Exception and java.lang.Error are both subclasses of Throwable. Anything that subclasses Throwable may be thrown or caught. However, it is typically bad practice to catch or throw Error as this is used to denote errors internal to the JVM that cannot usually be "handled" by the programmer (e.g. OutOfMemoryError). Likewise you should avoid catching Throwable, which could result in you catching Errors in addition to Exceptions.

Connection refused on docker container

You need to publish the exposed ports by using the following options:

-P (upper case) or --publish-all that will tell Docker to use random ports from your host and map them to the exposed container's ports.

-p (lower case) or --publish=[] that will tell Docker to use ports you manually set and map them to the exposed container's ports.

The second option is preferred because you already know which ports are mapped. If you use the first option then you will need to call docker inspect demo and check which random ports are being used from your host at the Ports section.

Just run the following command:

docker run -it -p 8080:8080 demo

After that your url will work.

Inserting a tab character into text using C#

Hazar is right with his \t. Here's the full list of escape characters for C#:

\' for a single quote.

\" for a double quote.

\\ for a backslash.

\0 for a null character.

\a for an alert character.

\b for a backspace.

\f for a form feed.

\n for a new line.

\r for a carriage return.

\t for a horizontal tab.

\v for a vertical tab.

\uxxxx for a unicode character hex value (e.g. \u0020).

\x is the same as \u, but you don't need leading zeroes (e.g. \x20).

\Uxxxxxxxx for a unicode character hex value (longer form needed for generating surrogates).

Rerender view on browser resize with React

componentDidMount() {

    // Handle resize
    window.addEventListener('resize', this.handleResize);
}




handleResize = () => {
    this.renderer.setSize(this.mount.clientWidth, this.mount.clientHeight);
    this.camera.aspect = this.mount.clientWidth / this.mount.clientHeight;
    this.camera.updateProjectionMatrix();
};

Only need to define resize event function.

Then update the renderers size ( canvas ), assign a new aspect ratio for the camera.

Unmounting and remouting is a crazy solution in my opinion....

below is the mount if needed.

            <div
                className={this.state.canvasActive ? 'canvasContainer isActive' : 'canvasContainer'}
                ref={mount => {
                    this.mount = mount;
                }}
            />

How can I clear an HTML file input with JavaScript?

I tried most of solutions but did not seem anyone to work. However I found a walk around for it below.

The structure of the form is: form => label, input and submit button. After we choose a file, the filename will be shown by the label by doing so manually in JavaScript.

So my strategy is: initially the submit button is disabled, after a file is chosen, the submit button disabled attribute will be removed such that I can submit file. After I submit, I clear the label which makes it look like I clear the file input but actually not. Then I will disable the submit button again to prevent from submitting the form.

By setting the submit button disable or not, I stop the file from submitted many times unless I choose another file.

How do I concatenate const/literal strings in C?

Best way to do it without having a limited buffer size is by using asprintf()

{
    char* result;
    asprintf(&result, "%s%s", str1, str2);
    return result;
}

How do you configure HttpOnly cookies in tomcat / java webapps?

For cookies that I am explicitly setting, I switched to use SimpleCookie provided by Apache Shiro. It does not inherit from javax.servlet.http.Cookie so it takes a bit more juggling to get everything to work correctly however it does provide a property set HttpOnly and it works with Servlet 2.5.

For setting a cookie on a response, rather than doing response.addCookie(cookie) you need to do cookie.saveTo(request, response).

Difference between using bean id and name in Spring configuration file

Either one would work. It depends on your needs:
If your bean identifier contains special character(s) for example (/viewSummary.html), it wont be allowed as the bean id, because it's not a valid XML ID. In such cases you could skip defining the bean id and supply the bean name instead.
The name attribute also helps in defining aliases for your bean, since it allows specifying multiple identifiers for a given bean.

Android: Flush DNS

copied from: https://android.stackexchange.com/questions/12962/flush-clear-dns-cache

Addresses are cached for 600 seconds (10 minutes) by default. Failed lookups are cached for 10 seconds. From everything I've seen, there's nothing built in to flush the cache. This is apparently a reported bug http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=7904 in Android because of the way it stores DNS cache. Clearing the browser cache doesn't touch the DNS, the "hard reset" clears it.

Returning a C string from a function

A char is only a single one-byte character. It can't store the string of characters, nor is it a pointer (which you apparently cannot have). Therefore you cannot solve your problem without using pointers (which char[] is syntactic sugar for).

Regex for quoted string with escaping quotes

/"(?:[^"\\]|\\.)*"/

How to get root directory in yii2

Supposing you have a writable "uploads" folder in your application:

You can define a param like this:

Yii::$app->params['uploadPath'] = realpath(Yii::$app->basePath) . '/uploads/';

Then you can simply use the parameter as:

$path1 = Yii::$app->params['uploadPath'] . $filename;

Just depending on if you are using advanced or simple template the base path will be (following the link provided by phazei):

Simple @app: Your application root directory

Advanced @app: Your application root directory (either frontend or backend or console depending on where you access it from)

This way the application will be more portable than using realpath(dirname(__FILE__).'/../../'));

SQL Server equivalent to MySQL enum data type?

Found this interesting approach when I wanted to implement enums in SQL Server.

The approach mentioned below in the link is quite compelling, considering all your database enum needs could be satisfied with 2 central tables.

What are the obj and bin folders (created by Visual Studio) used for?

One interesting fact about the obj directory: If you have publishing set up in a web project, the files that will be published are staged to obj\Release\Package\PackageTmp. If you want to publish the files yourself rather than use the integrated VS feature, you can grab the files that you actually need to deploy here, rather than pick through all the digital debris in the bin directory.

How to get equal width of input and select fields

Updated answer

Here is how to change the box model used by the input/textarea/select elements so that they all behave the same way. You need to use the box-sizing property which is implemented with a prefix for each browser

-ms-box-sizing:content-box;
-moz-box-sizing:content-box;
-webkit-box-sizing:content-box; 
box-sizing:content-box;

This means that the 2px difference we mentioned earlier does not exist..

example at http://www.jsfiddle.net/gaby/WaxTS/5/

note: On IE it works from version 8 and upwards..


Original

if you reset their borders then the select element will always be 2 pixels less than the input elements..

Calling functions in a DLL from C++

The following are the 5 steps required:

  1. declare the function pointer
  2. Load the library
  3. Get the procedure address
  4. assign it to function pointer
  5. call the function using function pointer

You can find the step by step VC++ IDE screen shot at http://www.softwareandfinance.com/Visual_CPP/DLLDynamicBinding.html

Here is the code snippet:

int main()
{
/***
__declspec(dllimport) bool GetWelcomeMessage(char *buf, int len); // used for static binding
 ***/
    typedef bool (*GW)(char *buf, int len);

    HMODULE hModule = LoadLibrary(TEXT("TestServer.DLL"));
    GW GetWelcomeMessage = (GW) GetProcAddress(hModule, "GetWelcomeMessage");

    char buf[128];
    if(GetWelcomeMessage(buf, 128) == true)
        std::cout << buf;
        return 0;
}

Connect to docker container as user other than root

You can specify USER in the Dockerfile. All subsequent actions will be performed using that account. You can specify USER one line before the CMD or ENTRYPOINT if you only want to use that user when launching a container (and not when building the image). When you start a container from the resulting image, you will attach as the specified user.

Calculate AUC in R?

You can learn more about AUROC in this blog post by Miron Kursa:

https://mbq.me/blog/augh-roc/

He provides a fast function for AUROC:

# By Miron Kursa https://mbq.me
auroc <- function(score, bool) {
  n1 <- sum(!bool)
  n2 <- sum(bool)
  U  <- sum(rank(score)[!bool]) - n1 * (n1 + 1) / 2
  return(1 - U / n1 / n2)
}

Let's test it:

set.seed(42)
score <- rnorm(1e3)
bool  <- sample(c(TRUE, FALSE), 1e3, replace = TRUE)

pROC::auc(bool, score)
mltools::auc_roc(score, bool)
ROCR::performance(ROCR::prediction(score, bool), "auc")@y.values[[1]]
auroc(score, bool)

0.51371668847094
0.51371668847094
0.51371668847094
0.51371668847094

auroc() is 100 times faster than pROC::auc() and computeAUC().

auroc() is 10 times faster than mltools::auc_roc() and ROCR::performance().

print(microbenchmark(
  pROC::auc(bool, score),
  computeAUC(score[bool], score[!bool]),

Is there a concise way to iterate over a stream with indices in Java 8?

If you need the index in the forEach then this provides a way.

  public class IndexedValue {

    private final int    index;
    private final Object value;

    public IndexedValue(final int index, final Object value) { 
        this.index = index;
        this.value = value;
    }

    public int getIndex() {
        return index;
    }

    public Object getValue() {
        return value;
    }
}

Then use it as follows.

@Test
public void withIndex() {
    final List<String> list = Arrays.asList("a", "b");
    IntStream.range(0, list.size())
             .mapToObj(index -> new IndexedValue(index, list.get(index)))
             .forEach(indexValue -> {
                 System.out.println(String.format("%d, %s",
                                                  indexValue.getIndex(),
                                                  indexValue.getValue().toString()));
             });
}

How to have conditional elements and keep DRY with Facebook React's JSX?

With ES6 you can do it with a simple one-liner

Is there a php echo/print equivalent in javascript

You can use document.write, however it's not a good practice, it may clear the entire page depends on when it's being executed.

You should use Element.innerHtml like this:

<div>foo</div>
<span id="insertHere"></span>
<div>bar</div>

<script>
document.getElementById('insertHere').innerHTML = '<div>Print this after the script tag</div>';
</script>

How can I return pivot table output in MySQL?

A stardard-SQL version using boolean logic:

SELECT company_name
     , COUNT(action = 'EMAIL' OR NULL) AS "Email"
     , COUNT(action = 'PRINT' AND pagecount = 1 OR NULL) AS "Print 1 pages"
     , COUNT(action = 'PRINT' AND pagecount = 2 OR NULL) AS "Print 2 pages"
     , COUNT(action = 'PRINT' AND pagecount = 3 OR NULL) AS "Print 3 pages"
FROM   tbl
GROUP  BY company_name;

SQL Fiddle.

How?

TRUE OR NULL yields TRUE.
FALSE OR NULL yields NULL.
NULL OR NULL yields NULL.
And COUNT only counts non-null values. Voilá.

Combine multiple JavaScript files into one JS file

You can use a script that I made. You need JRuby to run this though. https://bitbucket.org/ardee_aram/jscombiner (JSCombiner).

What sets this apart is that it watches file changes in the javascript, and combines it automatically to the script of your choice. So there is no need to manually "build" your javascript each time you test it. Hope it helps you out, I am currently using this.

See changes to a specific file using git

Use a command like:

git diff file_2.rb

See the git diff documentation for full information on the kinds of things you can get differences for.

Normally, git diff by itself shows all the changes in the whole repository (not just the current directory).

All the error 80020101 means is that there was an error, of some sort, while evaluating JavaScript. If you load that JavaScript via Ajax, the evaluation process is particularly strict.

Sometimes removing // will fix the issue, but the inverse is not true... the issue is not always caused by //.

Look at the exact JavaScript being returned by your Ajax call and look for any issues in that script. For more details see a great writeup here

Could not load type 'System.ServiceModel.Activation.HttpModule' from assembly 'System.ServiceModel

I have Windows 8 installed on my machine, and the aspnet_regiis.exe tool did not worked for me either.

The solution that worked for me is posted on this link, on the answer by Neha: System.ServiceModel.Activation.HttpModule error

Everywhere the problem to this solution was mentioned as re-registering aspNet by using aspnet_regiis.exe. But this did not work for me.

Though this is a valid solution (as explained beautifully here)

but it did not work with Windows 8.

For Windows 8 you need to Windows features and enable everything under ".Net Framework 3.5" and ".Net Framework 4.5 Advanced Services".

Thanks Neha

What is the difference between an abstract function and a virtual function?

There are nothing call virtual class in C#.

For functions

  1. Abstract function only have signature only,the drive class should override with functionality.
  2. Virtual function will hold the part of functionality the drive class may or may not override it according to the requirement

You can decide with your requirement.

'Access-Control-Allow-Origin' issue when API call made from React (Isomorphic app)

Because the server don't have CORS header, so you are not allowed to get the response.

Getting Data from Android Play Store

Disclaimer: I am from 42matters, who provides this data already on https://42matters.com/api , feel free to check it out or drop us a line.

As lenik mentioned there are open-source libraries that already help with obtaining some data from GPlay. If you want to build one yourself you can try to parse the Google Play App page, but you should pay attention to the following:

  • Make sure the URL you are trying to parse is not blocked in robots.txt - e.g. https://play.google.com/robots.txt
  • Make sure that you are not doing it too often, Google will throttle and potentially blacklist you if you are doing it too much.
  • Send a correct User-Agent header to actually show you are a bot
  • The page of an app is big - make sure you accept gzip and request the mobile version
  • GPlay website is not an API, it doesn't care that you parse it so it will change over time. Make sure you handle changes - e.g. by having test to make sure you get what you expected.

So that in mind getting one page metadata is a matter of fetching the page html and parsing it properly. With JSoup you can try:

      HttpClient httpClient = HttpClientBuilder.create().build();
      HttpGet request = new HttpGet(crawlUrl);
      HttpResponse rsp = httpClient.execute(request);

      int statusCode = rsp.getStatusLine().getStatusCode();

      if (statusCode == 200) {
           String content = EntityUtils.toString(rsp.getEntity());    
           Document doc = Jsoup.parse(content);
           //parse content, whatever you need
           Element price = doc.select("[itemprop=price]").first();
      }      

For that very simple use case that should get you started. However, the moment you want to do more interesting stuff, things get complicated:

  • Search is forbidden in robots.
  • Keeping app metadata up-to-date is hard to do. There are more than 2.2m apps, if you want to refresh their metadata daily there are 2.2 requests/day, which will 1) get blocked immediately, 2) costs a lot of money - pessimistic 220gb data transfer per day if one app is 100k
  • How do you discover new apps
  • How do you get pricing in each country, translations of each language

The list goes on. If you don't want to do all this by yourself, you can consider 42matters API, which supports lookup and search, top google charts, advanced queries and filters. And this for 35 languages and more than 50 countries.

How to set cache: false in jQuery.get call

I'm very late in the game, but this might help others. I hit this same problem with $.get and I didn't want to blindly turn off caching and I didn't like the timestamp patch. So after a little research I found that you can simply use $.post instead of $.get which does NOT use caching. Simple as that. :)

How to add external library in IntelliJ IDEA?

I've used this process to attach a 3rd party Jar to an Android project in IDEA.

  • Copy the Jar to your libs/ directory
  • Open Project Settings (Ctrl Alt Shift S)
  • Under the Project Settings panel on the left, choose Modules
  • On the larger right pane, choose the Dependencies tab
  • Press the Add... button on the far right of the screen (if you have a smaller screen like me, you may have to drag resize to the right in order to see it)
  • From the dropdown of Add options, choose "Library". A "Choose Libraries" dialog will appear.
  • Press "New Library..."
  • Choose a suitable title for the library
  • Press "Attach Classes..."
  • Choose the Jar from your libs/ directory, and press OK to dismiss

The library should now be recognised.

jQuery vs document.querySelectorAll

Here's a comparison if I want to apply the same attribute, e.g. hide all elements of class "my-class". This is one reason to use jQuery.

jQuery:

$('.my-class').hide();

JavaScript:

var cls = document.querySelectorAll('.my-class');
for (var i = 0; i < cls.length; i++) {
    cls[i].style.display = 'none';
}

With jQuery already so popular, they should have made document.querySelector() behave just like $(). Instead, document.querySelector() only selects the first matching element which makes it only halfway useful.

Javascript: output current datetime in YYYY/mm/dd hh:m:sec format

You can build it manually:

var m = new Date();
var dateString = m.getUTCFullYear() +"/"+ (m.getUTCMonth()+1) +"/"+ m.getUTCDate() + " " + m.getUTCHours() + ":" + m.getUTCMinutes() + ":" + m.getUTCSeconds();

and to force two digits on the values that require it, you can use something like this:

("0000" + 5).slice(-2)

Which would look like this:

_x000D_
_x000D_
var m = new Date();_x000D_
var dateString =_x000D_
    m.getUTCFullYear() + "/" +_x000D_
    ("0" + (m.getUTCMonth()+1)).slice(-2) + "/" +_x000D_
    ("0" + m.getUTCDate()).slice(-2) + " " +_x000D_
    ("0" + m.getUTCHours()).slice(-2) + ":" +_x000D_
    ("0" + m.getUTCMinutes()).slice(-2) + ":" +_x000D_
    ("0" + m.getUTCSeconds()).slice(-2);_x000D_
_x000D_
console.log(dateString);
_x000D_
_x000D_
_x000D_

How to cancel an $http request in AngularJS?

This enhances the accepted answer by decorating the $http service with an abort method as follows ...

'use strict';
angular.module('admin')
  .config(["$provide", function ($provide) {

$provide.decorator('$http', ["$delegate", "$q", function ($delegate, $q) {
  var getFn = $delegate.get;
  var cancelerMap = {};

  function getCancelerKey(method, url) {
    var formattedMethod = method.toLowerCase();
    var formattedUrl = encodeURI(url).toLowerCase().split("?")[0];
    return formattedMethod + "~" + formattedUrl;
  }

  $delegate.get = function () {
    var cancelerKey, canceler, method;
    var args = [].slice.call(arguments);
    var url = args[0];
    var config = args[1] || {};
    if (config.timeout == null) {
      method = "GET";
      cancelerKey = getCancelerKey(method, url);
      canceler = $q.defer();
      cancelerMap[cancelerKey] = canceler;
      config.timeout = canceler.promise;
      args[1] = config;
    }
    return getFn.apply(null, args);
  };

  $delegate.abort = function (request) {
    console.log("aborting");
    var cancelerKey, canceler;
    cancelerKey = getCancelerKey(request.method, request.url);
    canceler = cancelerMap[cancelerKey];

    if (canceler != null) {
      console.log("aborting", cancelerKey);

      if (request.timeout != null && typeof request.timeout !== "number") {

        canceler.resolve();
        delete cancelerMap[cancelerKey];
      }
    }
  };

  return $delegate;
}]);
  }]);

WHAT IS THIS CODE DOING?

To cancel a request a "promise" timeout must be set. If no timeout is set on the HTTP request then the code adds a "promise" timeout. (If a timeout is set already then nothing is changed).

However, to resolve the promise we need a handle on the "deferred". We thus use a map so we can retrieve the "deferred" later. When we call the abort method, the "deferred" is retrieved from the map and then we call the resolve method to cancel the http request.

Hope this helps someone.

LIMITATIONS

Currently this only works for $http.get but you can add code for $http.post and so on

HOW TO USE ...

You can then use it, for example, on state change, as follows ...

rootScope.$on('$stateChangeStart', function (event, toState, toParams) {
  angular.forEach($http.pendingRequests, function (request) {
        $http.abort(request);
    });
  });

How to use string.substr() function?

substr(i,j) means that you start from the index i (assuming the first index to be 0) and take next j chars. It does not mean going up to the index j.

MVC 5 Access Claims Identity User Data

You can also do this:

//Get the current claims principal
var identity = (ClaimsPrincipal)Thread.CurrentPrincipal;
var claims = identity.Claims;

Update

To provide further explanation as per comments.

If you are creating users within your system as follows:

UserManager<applicationuser> userManager = new UserManager<applicationuser>(new UserStore<applicationuser>(new SecurityContext()));
ClaimsIdentity identity = userManager.CreateIdentity(user, DefaultAuthenticationTypes.ApplicationCookie);

You should automatically have some Claims populated relating to you Identity.

To add customized claims after a user authenticates you can do this as follows:

var user = userManager.Find(userName, password);
identity.AddClaim(new Claim(ClaimTypes.Email, user.Email));

The claims can be read back out as Darin has answered above or as I have.

The claims are persisted when you call below passing the identity in:

AuthenticationManager.SignIn(new AuthenticationProperties() { IsPersistent = persistCookie }, identity);

Seriously, there's no jQuery plugin for odd/even checks?

Well, not anymore - releasing "Oven" a jQuery plugin under the MIT license to test if a given number is Odd/Even.

Source code is also available at http://jsfiddle.net/7HQNG/

Test-suites are available at http://jsfiddle.net/zeuRV/

(function() {
    /*
     * isEven(n)
     * @args number n
     * @return boolean returns whether the given number is even
     */
    jQuery.isEven = function(number) {
        return number % 2 == 0;
    };

    /* isOdd(n)
     * @args number n
     * @return boolean returns whether the given number is odd
     */
    jQuery.isOdd = function(number) {
        return !jQuery.isEven(number);
    };
})();?

What's the difference between process.cwd() vs __dirname?

Knowing the scope of each can make things easier to remember.

process is node's global object, and .cwd() returns where node is running.

__dirname is module's property, and represents the file path of the module. In node, one module resides in one file.

Similarly, __filename is another module's property, which holds the file name of the module.

Where to install Android SDK on Mac OS X?

A simple way is changing to required sdk in some android project the number of

Generate an integer that is not among four billion given ones

You could speed up finding the missing integers after reading the existing ones by storing ranges of unvisited integers in some tree structure.

You'd start by storing [0..4294967295] and every time you read an integer you splice the range it falls in, deleting a range when it becomes empty. At the end you have the exact set of integers that are missing in the ranges. So if you see 5 as the first integer, you'd have [0..4] and [6..4294967295].

This is a lot slower than marking bits so it would only be a solution for the 10MB case provided you can store the lower levels of the tree in files.

One way to store such a tree would be a B-tree with the start of the range as the key and the end of the range as the value. Worst case usage would be when you get all odd or even integers which would mean storing 2^31 values or tens of GB for the tree... Ouch. Best case is a sorted file where you'd only use a few integers for the whole tree.

So not really the correct answer but I thought I'd mention this way of doing it. I suppose I'd fail the interview ;-)

AngularJS For Loop with Numbers & Ranges

Using UnderscoreJS:

angular.module('myModule')
    .run(['$rootScope', function($rootScope) { $rootScope.range = _.range; }]);

Applying this to $rootScope makes it available everywhere:

<div ng-repeat="x in range(1,10)">
    {{x}}
</div>

How to get the name of a class without the package?

Just what is an IntPtr exactly?

Here's an example:

I'm writing a C# program that interfaces with a high-speed camera. The camera has its own driver that acquires images and loads them into the computer's memory for me automatically.

So when I'm ready to bring the latest image into my program to work with, the camera driver provides me with an IntPtr to where the image is ALREADY stored in physical memory, so I don't have to waste time/resources creating another block of memory to store an image that's in memory already. The IntPtr just shows me where the image already is.

What's the difference between setWebViewClient vs. setWebChromeClient?

From the source code:

// Instance of WebViewClient that is the client callback.
private volatile WebViewClient mWebViewClient;
// Instance of WebChromeClient for handling all chrome functions.
private volatile WebChromeClient mWebChromeClient;

// SOME OTHER SUTFFF.......

/**
 * Set the WebViewClient.
 * @param client An implementation of WebViewClient.
 */
public void setWebViewClient(WebViewClient client) {
    mWebViewClient = client;
}

/**
 * Set the WebChromeClient.
 * @param client An implementation of WebChromeClient.
 */
public void setWebChromeClient(WebChromeClient client) {
    mWebChromeClient = client;
}

Using WebChromeClient allows you to handle Javascript dialogs, favicons, titles, and the progress. Take a look of this example: Adding alert() support to a WebView

At first glance, there are too many differences WebViewClient & WebChromeClient. But, basically: if you are developing a WebView that won't require too many features but rendering HTML, you can just use a WebViewClient. On the other hand, if you want to (for instance) load the favicon of the page you are rendering, you should use a WebChromeClient object and override the onReceivedIcon(WebView view, Bitmap icon).

Most of the times, if you don't want to worry about those things... you can just do this:

webView= (WebView) findViewById(R.id.webview); 
webView.setWebChromeClient(new WebChromeClient()); 
webView.setWebViewClient(new WebViewClient()); 
webView.getSettings().setJavaScriptEnabled(true); 
webView.loadUrl(url); 

And your WebView will (in theory) have all features implemented (as the android native browser).

How can I convert a DOM element to a jQuery element?

What about constructing the element using jQuery? e.g.

$("<div></div>")

creates a new div element, ready to be added to the page. Can be shortened further to

$("<div>")

then you can chain on commands that you need, set up event handlers and append it to the DOM. For example

$('<div id="myid">Div Content</div>')
    .bind('click', function(e) { /* event handler here */ })
    .appendTo('#myOtherDiv');

Difference between r+ and w+ in fopen()

The main difference is w+ truncate the file to zero length if it exists or create a new file if it doesn't. While r+ neither deletes the content nor create a new file if it doesn't exist.

Try these codes and you will understand:

#include <stdio.h>
int main()
{
   FILE *fp;

   fp = fopen("test.txt", "w+");
   fprintf(fp, "This is testing for fprintf...\n");
   fputs("This is testing for fputs...\n", fp);
   fclose(fp);
}  

and then this

#include <stdio.h>
int main()
{
   FILE *fp;

   fp = fopen("test.txt", "w+");
   fclose(fp);
}   

Then open the file test.txt and see the what happens. You will see that all data written by the first program has been erased.
Repeat this for r+ and see the result. Hope you will understand.

How to count the number of columns in a table using SQL?

How to include vars file in a vars file with ansible?

Unfortunately, vars files do not have include statements.

You can either put all the vars into the definitions dictionary, or add the variables as another dictionary in the same file.

If you don't want to have them in the same file, you can include them at the playbook level by adding the vars file at the start of the play:

---
- hosts: myhosts

  vars_files:
    - default_step.yml

or in a task:

---
- hosts: myhosts

  tasks:
    - name: include default step variables
      include_vars: default_step.yml

How to make Apache serve index.php instead of index.html?

PHP will work only on the .php file extension.

If you are on Apache you can also set, in your httpd.conf file, the extensions for PHP. You'll have to find the line:

AddType application/x-httpd-php .php .html
                                     ^^^^^

and add how many extensions, that should be read with the PHP interpreter, as you want.

Can we locate a user via user's phone number in Android?

Quick answer: No, at least not with native SMS service.

Long answer: Sure, but the receiver's phone should have the correct setup first. An app that detects incoming sms, and if a keyword matches, reports its current location to your server, which then pushes that info to the sender.

Inserting one list into another list in java?

Excerpt from the Java API for addAll(collection c) in Interface List see here

"Appends all of the elements in the specified collection to the end of this list, in the order that they are returned by the specified collection's iterator (optional operation)."

You you will have as much object as you have in both lists - the number of objects in your first list plus the number of objects you have in your second list - in your case 100.

How do I start Mongo DB from Windows?

It is showing admin web console waiting for connections on port 28017.

The above message means that mongodb has started successfully and is listening on port 28017.

You can use the mongo shell(mongo.exe) to connect to the mongoDB and perform db operations.

There are several GUI tools available for MongoDB like MongoVUE, etc.

What's the difference between "2*2" and "2**2" in Python?

  2**2 means 2 squared (2^2)

Css pseudo classes input:not(disabled)not:[type="submit"]:focus

Your syntax is pretty screwy.
