Like it mentions in the remarks section we need to supply two functions. A vertex shader and a fragment shader Let's start with a vertex shader // an attribute will receive data from a buffer attribute vec4 position; // all shaders have a main function void main() { // gl_Position is a s...

git log master..foo will show the commits that are on foo and not on master. Helpful for seeing what commits you've added since branching!

To check if a required gem is installed, from within your code, you can use the following (using nokogiri as an example): begin found_gem = Gem::Specification.find_by_name('nokogiri') require 'nokogiri' .... <the rest of your code> rescue Gem::LoadError end However, this can ...

While in insert mode, you can use <C-r> to paste from a register, which is specified by the next keystroke. <C-r>" for example pastes from the unnamed (") register. See :help registers.

Suppose we want to select a word with a surrounding white space, use the text object aw for around a word using visual mode: Got to normal mode by pressing ESC Type vaw at the beginning of a word This will select the word with white space

This substitute command can use Regular Expressions and will match any instance of foo followed by any( one ) character since the period . in Regular Expressions matches any character, hence the following command will match all instances of foo followed by any character in the current line. :s/foo....

Creating Gradient UIImage with colors in CGRect Swift: extension UIImage { static func gradientImageWithBounds(bounds: CGRect, colors: [CGColor]) -> UIImage { let gradientLayer = CAGradientLayer() gradientLayer.frame = bounds gradientLayer.colors = colors ...

As all threads are running in the same process, all threads have access to the same data. However, concurrent access to shared data should be protected with a lock to avoid synchronization issues. import threading obj = {} obj_lock = threading.Lock() def objify(key, val): print("O...

Code running in different processes do not, by default, share the same data. However, the multiprocessing module contains primitives to help share values across multiple processes. import multiprocessing plain_num = 0 shared_num = multiprocessing.Value('d', 0) lock = multiprocessing.Lock() ...

Returns a character expression (varchar or nvarchar) after converting all uppercase characters to lowercase. Parameters: Character expression. Any expression of character or binary data that can be implicitly converted to varchar. SELECT LOWER('This IS my STRING') -- Returns 'this is my strin...

The switch statement is a control statement that selects a switch section to execute from a list of candidates. A switch statement includes one or more switch sections. Each switch section contains one or more case labels followed by one or more statements. If no case label contains a matching value...

If an array happens to have one or more nil elements and these need to be removed, the Array#compact or Array#compact! methods can be used, as below. array = [ 1, nil, 'hello', nil, '5', 33] array.compact # => [ 1, 'hello', '5', 33] #notice that the method returns a new copy of the array w...

We can use flatten() in order to lazily reduce the nesting of a multi-dimensional sequence. For example, lazy flattening a 2D array into a 1D array: // A 2D array of type [[Int]] let array2D = [[1, 3], [4], [6, 8, 10], [11]] // A FlattenBidirectionalCollection<[[Int]]> let lazilyFlatten...

Melting: The basics Melting is used to transform data from wide to long format. Starting with a wide data set: DT = data.table(ID = letters[1:3], Age = 20:22, OB_A = 1:3, OB_B = 4:6, OB_C = 7:9) We can melt our data using the melt function in data.table. This returns another data.table in long...

SAS is an integrated system of software solutions that enables you to perform the following tasks: data entry, retrieval, and management report writing and graphics design statistical and mathematical analysis business forecasting and decision support operations research and project managemen...

If you use the [NonSerialized] attribute, then that member will always have its default value after deserialization (ex. 0 for an int, null for string, false for a bool, etc.), regardless of any initialization done in the object itself (constructors, declarations, etc.). To compensate, the attribut...

You can install NLTK over pip (pip install nltk).After it is installed, many components will not be present, and you will not be able to use some of NLTK's features. From your Python shell, run the function ntlk.download() to select which additional packages you want to install using UI. Alternati...

For queries, Realm provides the realmResults.asObservable() method. Observing results is only possible on looper threads (typically the UI thread). For this to work, your configuration must contain the following realmConfiguration = new RealmConfiguration.Builder(context) // ...

Sometimes you want to have a file held in Git but ignore subsequent changes. Tell Git to ignore changes to a file or directory using update-index: git update-index --assume-unchanged my-file.txt The above command instructs Git to assume my-file.txt hasn't been changed, and not to check or repor...

A deadlock is what occurs when two or more threads are waiting for eachother to complete or to release a resource in such a way that they wait forever. A typical scenario of two threads waiting on eachother to complete is when a Windows Forms GUI thread waits for a worker thread and the worker thre...
