We define two sets a and b >>> a = {1, 2, 2, 3, 4} >>> b = {3, 3, 4, 4, 5} NOTE: {1} creates a set of one element, but {} creates an empty dict. The correct way to create an empty set is set(). Intersection a.intersection(b) returns a new set with elements present in bot...

The non-block do construct looks like integer i do 100, i=1, 5 100 print *, i That is, where the labelled termination statement is not a continue statement. There are various restrictions on the statement that can be used as the termination statement and the whole thing is generally v...

To verify that nvm has been installed, do: command -v nvm which should output 'nvm' if the installation was successful.

Listing available remote versions for installation nvm ls-remote Installing a remote version nvm install <version> For example nvm install 0.10.13

To list available local versions of node through NVM: nvm ls For example, if nvm ls returns: $ nvm ls v4.3.0 v5.5.0 You can switch to v5.5.0 with: nvm use v5.5.0

To connect using java.sql.DriverManager you need a JDBC url to connect to your database. JDBC urls are database specific, but they are all of the form jdbc:<subprotocol>:<subname> Where <subprotocol> identifies the driver or database (for example postgresql, mysql, firebirdsql,...

When you deploy your app to a (Node.js-specific) hosted environment, this environment usually offers a PORT-environment variable that you can use to run your server on. Changing the port number to process.env.PORT allows you to access the application. For example, http.createServer(function(reques...

You can use the node-inspector. Run this command to install it via npm: npm install -g node-inspector Then you can debug your application using node-debug app.js The Github repository can be found here: https://github.com/node-inspector/node-inspector Debugging natively You can also debu...

The intrinsic pack function packs an array into a vector, selecting elements based on a given mask. The function has two forms PACK(array, mask) PACK(array, mask, vector) (that is, the vector argument is optional). In both cases array is an array, and mask of logical type and conformable with...

Consider the following component with one input myInput and an internal value called someInternalValue. Both of them are used in a component's template. import {Component, Input} from '@angular/core'; @Component({ template:` <div> <p>{{myInput}}</p> <p>{...

Any array can be quickly decomposed by assigning its elements into multiple variables. A simple example: arr = [1, 2, 3] # --- a = arr[0] b = arr[1] c = arr[2] # --- or, the same a, b, c = arr Preceding a variable with the splat operator (*) puts into it an array of all the elements that h...

Variables don't necessarily have to expand to their values - substrings can be extracted during expansion, which can be useful for extracting file extensions or parts of paths. Globbing characters keep their usual meanings, so .* refers to a literal dot, followed by any sequence of characters; it's ...

Consider this broken snippet: def foo bar = [1, 2, 3, 4].map do |x| return 0 if x.even? x end puts 'baz' bar end foo # => 0 One might expect return to yield a value for map's array of block results. So the return value of foo would be [1, 0, 3, 0]. Instead, return retu...

Problem: Some data needs to be passed to a scene loaded from a fxml. Solution Specify a controller using the fx:controller attribute and get the controller instance created during the loading process from the FXMLLoader instance used to load the fxml. Add methods for passing the data to the contr...

Problem: Some data needs to be passed to a scene loaded from a fxml. Solution Set the controller using the FXMLLoader instance used later to load the fxml. Make sure the controller contains the relevant data before loading the fxml. Note: in this case the fxml file must not contain the fx:contro...

Problem: Some data needs to be passed to a scene loaded from a fxml. Solution Specify a controller factory that is responsible for creating the controllers. Pass the data to the controller instance created by the factory. FXML <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> &...

Python 3 allows you to define function arguments which can only be assigned by keyword, even without default values. This is done by using star * to consume additional positional parameters without setting the keyword parameters. All arguments after the * are keyword-only (i.e. non-positional) arg...

Sometimes a column should show different content than just the toString value of the cell item. In this case the TableCells created by the cellFactory of the TableColumn is customized to change the layout based on the item. Important Note: TableView only creates the TableCells that are shown in the...

A common task is to convert all columns of a data.frame to character class for ease of manipulation, such as in the cases of sending data.frames to a RDBMS or merging data.frames containing factors where levels may differ between input data.frames. The best time to do this is when the data is read ...

Rational represents a rational number as numerator and denominator: r1 = Rational(2, 3) r2 = 2.5.to_r r3 = r1 + r2 r3.numerator # => 19 r3.denominator # => 6 Rational(2, 4) # => (1/2) Other ways of creating a Rational Rational('2/3') # => (2/3) Rational(3) # => (3/1...
