a, b = 2, 3 a * b # = 6 import operator operator.mul(a, b) # = 6 Possible combinations (builtin types): int and int (gives an int) int and float (gives a float) int and complex (gives a complex) float and float (gives a float) float and complex (gives a comple...

Python does integer division when both operands are integers. The behavior of Python's division operators have changed from Python 2.x and 3.x (see also Integer Division ). a, b, c, d, e = 3, 2, 2.0, -3, 10 Python 2.x2.7 In Python 2 the result of the ' / ' operator depends on the type of the nu...

a, b = 2, 3 (a ** b) # = 8 pow(a, b) # = 8 import math math.pow(a, b) # = 8.0 (always float; does not allow complex results) import operator operator.pow(a, b) # = 8 Another difference between the built-in pow and math.pow is that the built-in po...

A practical use case of a generator is to iterate through values of an infinite series. Here's an example of finding the first ten terms of the Fibonacci Sequence. def fib(a=0, b=1): """Generator that yields Fibonacci numbers. `a` and `b` are the seed values""" ...

Direction-Specific Properties CSS allows you to specify a given side to apply margin to. The four properties provided for this purpose are: margin-left margin-right margin-top margin-bottom The following code would apply a margin of 30 pixels to the left side of the selected div. View Resu...

When you clone a repository that uses submodules, you'll need to initialize and update them. $ git clone --recursive https://github.com/username/repo.git This will clone the referenced submodules and place them in the appropriate folders (including submodules within submodules). This is equivale...

Signed integers can be of these types (the int after short, or long is optional): signed char c = 127; /* required to be 1 byte, see remarks for further information. */ signed short int si = 32767; /* required to be at least 16 bits. */ signed int i = 32767; /* required to be at least 16 bits */ ...

The C language has three mandatory real floating point types, float, double, and long double. float f = 0.314f; /* suffix f or F denotes type float */ double d = 0.314; /* no suffix denotes double */ long double ld = 0.314l; /* suffix l or L denotes long double */ /* the differen...

Dictionaries are an unordered collection of keys and values. Values relate to unique keys and must be of the same type. When initializing a Dictionary the full syntax is as follows: var books : Dictionary<Int, String> = Dictionary<Int, String>() Although a more concise way of initia...

Add a key and value to a Dictionary var books = [Int: String]() //books = [:] books[5] = "Book 5" //books = [5: "Book 5"] books.updateValue("Book 6", forKey: 5) //[5: "Book 6"] updateValue returns the original value if one exists or nil. let previous...

It is possible to emulate container types, which support accessing values by key or index. Consider this naive implementation of a sparse list, which stores only its non-zero elements to conserve memory. class sparselist(object): def __init__(self, size): self.size = size se...

Sometimes it's necessary to set an array to zero, after the initialization has been done. #include <stdlib.h> /* for EXIT_SUCCESS */ #define ARRLEN (10) int main(void) { int array[ARRLEN]; /* Allocated but not initialised, as not defined static or global. */ size_t i; for(i ...

You can filter what routes are available using constraints. There are several ways to use constraints including: segment constraints, request based constraints advanced constraints For example, a requested based constraint to only allow a specific IP address to access a route: constraints(...

Extensions can contain functions and computed/constant get variables. They are in the format extension ExtensionOf { //new functions and get-variables } To reference the instance of the extended object, self can be used, just as it could be used To create an extension of String that adds ...

Extensions can contain convenience initializers. For example, a failable initializer for Int that accepts a NSString: extension Int { init?(_ string: NSString) { self.init(string as String) // delegate to the existing Int.init(String) initializer } } let str1: NSString = &qu...

This example show how to subscribe, and once that is successful, publishing a message to that channel. It also demonstrates the full set of parameters that can be included in the subscribe's message callback function. pubnub = PUBNUB({ publish_key : 'your_pub_key', ...

reduce will not terminate the iteration before the iterable has been completly iterated over so it can be used to create a non short-circuit any() or all() function: import operator # non short-circuit "all" reduce(operator.and_, [False, True, True, True]) # = False # non short-circu...

# First falsy element or last element if all are truthy: reduce(lambda i, j: i and j, [100, [], 20, 10]) # = [] reduce(lambda i, j: i and j, [100, 50, 20, 10]) # = 10 # First truthy element or last element if all falsy: reduce(lambda i, j: i or j, [100, [], 20, 0]) # = 100 reduce(la...

In addition to .done, .fail and .always promise callbacks, which are triggered based on whether the request was successful or not, there is the option to trigger a function when a specific HTTP Status Code is returned from the server. This can be done using the statusCode parameter. $.ajax({ t...

If the function parameter is None, then the identity function will be used: list(filter(None, [1, 0, 2, [], '', 'a'])) # discards 0, [] and '' # Out: [1, 2, 'a'] Python 2.x2.0.1 [i for i in [1, 0, 2, [], '', 'a'] if i] # equivalent list comprehension Python 3.x3.0.0 (i for i in [1, 0...
