NSArray *myColors = [NSArray arrayWithObjects: @"Red", @"Green", @"Blue", @"Yellow", nil]; // Convert myColors to mutable NSMutableArray *myColorsMutable = [myColors mutableCopy];

Long vectors with long runs of the same value can be significantly compressed by storing them in their run-length encoding (the value of each run and the number of times that value is repeated). As an example, consider a vector of length 10 million with a huge number of 1's and only a small number o...

See Boost Getting Started. Most of the Boost libraries are header-only, meaning that there's nothing you have to compile or link to. Make sure you are getting the most recent version of Boost: Visit www.boost.org Look for the Current Release download. Currently, this links here. Select the ...

In Python 3, many of the dictionary methods are quite different in behaviour from Python 2, and many were removed as well: has_key, iter* and view* are gone. Instead of d.has_key(key), which had been long deprecated, one must now use key in d. In Python 2, dictionary methods keys, values and items ...

quickCheckAll is a Template Haskell helper which finds all the definitions in the current file whose name begins with prop_ and tests them. {-# LANGUAGE TemplateHaskell #-} import Test.QuickCheck (quickCheckAll) import Data.List (sort) idempotent :: Eq a => (a -> a) -> a -> Bool ...

Installing mongoose is as easy as running the npm command npm install mongoose --save But make sure you have also installed MongoDB for your OS or Have access to a MongoDB database. Connecting to MongoDB database: 1. Import mongoose into the app: import mongoose from 'mongoose'; 2. Specify...

static class Program { static void Main() { dynamic dynamicObject = new ExpandoObject(); string awesomeString = "Awesome"; // Prints True Console.WriteLine(awesomeString.IsThisAwesome()); dynamicObject.StringValue = awesomeStrin...

std::enable_if is a convenient utility to use boolean conditions to trigger SFINAE. It is defined as: template <bool Cond, typename Result=void> struct enable_if { }; template <typename Result> struct enable_if<true, Result> { using type = Result; }; That is, enable_...

C++11 One of constraining function is to use trailing decltype to specify the return type: namespace details { using std::to_string; // this one is constrained on being able to call to_string(T) template <class T> auto convert_to_string(T const& val, int ) ->...

SFINAE stands for Substitution Failure Is Not An Error. Ill-formed code that results from substituting types (or values) to instantiate a function template or a class template is not a hard compile error, it is only treated as a deduction failure. Deduction failures on instantiating function templa...

fn main() { let maybe_cake = Some("Chocolate cake"); let not_cake = None; // The unwrap method retrieves the value from the Option // and panics if the value is None println!("{}", maybe_cake.unwrap()); // The expect method works much like the un...

What is a node.js module (link to article): A module encapsulates related code into a single unit of code. When creating a module, this can be interpreted as moving all related functions into a file. Now lets see an example. Imagine all files are in same directory: File: printer.js "use...

The -Regex parameter allows switch statements to perform regular expression matching against conditions. Example: switch -Regex ('Condition') { 'Con\D+ion' {'One or more non-digits'} 'Conditio*$' {'Zero or more "o"'} 'C.ndition' {'Any single char.'} '^C\w+ition$'...

The break keyword can be used in switch statements to exit the statement before evaluating all conditions. Example: switch('Condition') { 'Condition' { 'First Action' } 'Condition' { 'Second Action' break } 'Condition' { 'Third Action' } } Output...

The -Wildcard parameter allows switch statements to perform wildcard matching against conditions. Example: switch -Wildcard ('Condition') { 'Condition' {'Normal match'} 'Condit*' {'Zero or more wildcard chars.'} 'C[aoc]ndit[f-l]on' {'Range and set of chars...

The -Exact parameter enforces switch statements to perform exact, case-insensitive matching against string-conditions. Example: switch -Exact ('Condition') { 'condition' {'First Action'} 'Condition' {'Second Action'} 'conditioN' {'Third Action'} '^*ondition$' {'Fourth Action...

The -CaseSensitive parameter enforces switch statements to perform exact, case-sensitive matching against conditions. Example: switch -CaseSensitive ('Condition') { 'condition' {'First Action'} 'Condition' {'Second Action'} 'conditioN' {'Third Action'} } Output: Second Act...

The -file parameter allows the switch statement to receive input from a file. Each line of the file is evaluated by the switch statement. Example file input.txt: condition test Example switch statement: switch -file input.txt { 'condition' {'First Action'} 'test' {'Second Action...

The Default keyword is used to execute an action when no other conditions match the input value. Example: switch('Condition') { 'Skip Condition' { 'First Action' } 'Skip This Condition Too' { 'Second Action' } Default { 'Default Action' } } Output: D...

Fixnum#to_s takes an optional base argument and represents the given number in that base: 2.to_s(2) # => "10" 3.to_s(2) # => "11" 3.to_s(3) # => "10" 10.to_s(16) # => "a" If no argument is provided, then it represents the number in bas...
