Whenever AFNetworking is used the call is dispatched on a custom thread provided by AFNetworking. When the call returns to the completion block, it gets executed on the main thread. This example sets a custom thread that dispatch to the completion block: AFNetworking 2.xx: // Create dispatch_queu...

It's possible to break / continue to an outer loop by using label statements: outerloop: for(...) { innerloop: for(...) { if(condition1) break outerloop; if(condition2) continue innerloop; // equivalent to: continue; } } There is no ...

The continue statement is used to skip the remaining steps in the current iteration and start with the next loop iteration. The control goes from the continue statement to the step value (increment or decrement), if any. String[] programmers = {"Adrian", "Paul", "John&quot...

User is an ActiveRecord or Mongoid class. Replace User with any Rails class in your project (even something like Integer or Array) my_string = "User" # Capitalized string # => 'User' my_constant = my_string.safe_constantize # => User my_constant.all.count # => 18 my...

This example will not work because the string passed in isn't recognized as a constant in the project. Even if you pass in "array", it won't work as it isn't capitalized. my_string = "not_a_constant" # => 'not_a_constant' my_string.safe_constantize # => nil my_s...

// Example of std::vector as an expanding dynamic size array. #include <algorithm> // std::sort #include <iostream> #include <vector> // std::vector using namespace std; int int_from( std::istream& in ) { int x = 0; in >> x; return x; } ...

Unfortunately as of C++14 there's no dynamic size matrix class in the C++ standard library. Matrix classes that support dynamic size are however available from a number of 3rd party libraries, including the Boost Matrix library (a sub-library within the Boost library). If you don't want a dependenc...
