min(7,2,1,5) # Output: 1 max(7,2,1,5) # Output: 7

Arrays can be created by enclosing a list of elements in square brackets ([ and ]). Array elements in this notation are separated with commas: array = [1, 2, 3, 4] Arrays can contain any kind of objects in any combination with no restrictions on type: array = [1, 'b', nil, [3, 4]]

This is the basic use of the <a> (anchor element) element: <a href="http://example.com/">Link to example.com</a> It creates a hyperlink, to the URL http://example.com/ as specified by the href (hypertext reference) attribute, with the anchor text "Link to example...

Relational operators check if a specific relation between two operands is true. The result is evaluated to 1 (which means true) or 0 (which means false). This result is often used to affect control flow (via if, while, for), but can also be stored in variables. Equals "==" Checks whether...

Assigns the value of the right-hand operand to the storage location named by the left-hand operand, and returns the value. int x = 5; /* Variable x holds the value 5. Returns 5. */ char y = 'c'; /* Variable y holds the value 99. Returns 99 * (as the character 'c' is repr...

Basic Arithmetic Return a value that is the result of applying the left hand operand to the right hand operand, using the associated mathematical operation. Normal mathematical rules of commutation apply (i.e. addition and multiplication are commutative, subtraction, division and modulus are not). ...

Logical AND Performs a logical boolean AND-ing of the two operands returning 1 if both of the operands are non-zero. The logical AND operator is of type int. 0 && 0 /* Returns 0. */ 0 && 1 /* Returns 0. */ 2 && 0 /* Returns 0. */ 2 && 3 /* Returns 1. */ Lo...

For every infix operator, e.g. + there is a operator-function (operator.add for +): 1 + 1 # Output: 2 from operator import add add(1, 1) # Output: 2 even though the main documentation states that for the arithmetic operators only numerical input is allowed it is possible: from operator impo...

Instead of this lambda-function that calls the method explicitly: alist = ['wolf', 'sheep', 'duck'] list(filter(lambda x: x.startswith('d'), alist)) # Keep only elements that start with 'd' # Output: ['duck'] one could use a operator-function that does the same: from operator import metho...

Grouping the key-value pairs of a dictionary by the value with itemgetter: from itertools import groupby from operator import itemgetter adict = {'a': 1, 'b': 5, 'c': 1} dict((i, dict(v)) for i, v in groupby(adict.items(), itemgetter(1))) # Output: {1: {'a': 1, 'c': 1}, 5: {'b': 5}} which ...

Arbitrary number of positional arguments: Defining a function capable of taking an arbitrary number of arguments can be done by prefixing one of the arguments with a * def func(*args): # args will be a tuple containing all values that are passed in for i in args: print(i) fun...

A basic join (also called "inner join") queries data from two tables, with their relationship defined in a join clause. The following example will select employees' first names (FName) from the Employees table and the name of the department they work for (Name) from the Departments table:...

A Left Outer Join (also known as a Left Join or Outer Join) is a Join that ensures all rows from the left table are represented; if no matching row from the right table exists, its corresponding fields are NULL. The following example will select all departments and the first name of employees that ...

min, max, and sorted all need the objects to be orderable. To be properly orderable, the class needs to define all of the 6 methods __lt__, __gt__, __ge__, __le__, __ne__ and __eq__: class IntegerContainer(object): def __init__(self, value): self.value = value def __rep...

class MyClass { func sayHi() { print("Hello") } deinit { print("Goodbye") } } When a closure captures a reference type (a class instance), it holds a strong reference by default: let closure: () -> Void do { let obj = MyClass() // Captures a strong re...

A for loop iterates over a sequence, so altering this sequence inside the loop could lead to unexpected results (especially when adding or removing elements): alist = [0, 1, 2] for index, value in enumerate(alist): alist.pop(index) print(alist) # Out: [1] Note: list.pop() is being used t...

We have three methods: attr_reader: used to allow reading the variable outside the class. attr_writer: used to allow modifying the variable outside the class. attr_accessor: combines both methods. class Cat attr_reader :age # you can read the age but you can never change it attr_writer...

def input_number(msg, err_msg=None): while True: try: return float(raw_input(msg)) except ValueError: if err_msg is not None: print(err_msg) def input_number(msg, err_msg=None): while True: try: return ...

if (navigator.geolocation) { navigator.geolocation.getCurrentPosition(geolocationSuccess, geolocationFailure); } else { console.log("Geolocation is not supported by this browser."); } // Function that will be called if the query succeeds var geolocationSuccess = function(pos) {...

In the event that geolocation fails, your callback function will receive a PositionError object. The object will include an attribute named code that will have a value of 1, 2, or 3. Each of these numbers signifies a different kind of error; the getErrorCode() function below takes the PositionError....
