The basic format of C-style for loop is: for (( variable assignment; condition; iteration process )) Notes: The assignment of the variable inside C-style for loop can contain spaces unlike the usual assignment Variables inside C-style for loop aren't preceded with $. Example: for (( i = ...

The X-macro approach can be generalized a bit by making the name of the "X" macro an argument of the master macro. This has the advantages of helping to avoid macro name collisions and of allowing use of a general-purpose macro as the "X" macro. As always with X macros, the mas...

Text prefixed with one to six pound signs (hash symbols, #) becomes a header <h1> through <h6>, according to how many pound signs were used. # This is a first-level (`<h1>`) header ## This is a second-level (`<h2>`) header ### And so on. This is a first-level (<h1&...

In this example we will write a basic program that checks the number of inputs and outputs passed to a MEX-function. As a starting point, we need to create a C++ file implementing the "MEX gateway". This is the function executed when the file is called from MATLAB. testinputs.cpp // Mat...

Alt-text is used by screen readers for visually impaired users and by search engines. It's therefore important to write good alt-text for your images. The text should look correct even if you replace the image with its alt attribute. For example: <!-- Incorrect --> <img src="anonymo...

Usually, Lua is being shipped with two binaries: lua - standalone interpreter and interactive shell luac - bytecode compiler Lets say we have an example program (bottles_of_mate.lua) like this: local string = require "string" function bottle_take(bottles_available) lo...

In Google Chrome, you can pause execution without needing to place breakpoints. Pause on Exception: While this button is toggled on, if your program hits an unhandled exception, the program will pause as if it had hit a breakpoint. The button can be found near Execution Controls and is useful for ...

Razor code can be inserted anywhere within HTML code. Razor code blocks are enclosed in @{ ... }. Inline variable and functions start with @. Code inside the Razor brackets follow the normal C# or VB rules. Single line statement: @{ var firstNumber = 1; } Multi-line code block: @{ var sec...

A storage engine created by Percona that uses fractal tree indexes.

This uses the Dropbox .NET SDK to download a file from the Dropbox API at the remote path to the local file "Test", while tracking progress: var response = await client.Files.DownloadAsync(path); ulong fileSize = response.Response.Size; const int bufferSize = 1024 * 1024; var buffer ...

This example demonstrates how Angular expressions are evaluated when using type="text" and type="number" for the input element. Consider the following controller and view: Controller var app = angular.module('app', []); app.controller('ctrl', function($scope) { $sco...
