(defun foobar (x y) (format t "X: ~s~@ Y: ~s~%" x y)) (foobar 10 20) ; X: 10 ; Y: 20 ;=> NIL

Global named functions are defined with DEFUN. (defun foobar () "Optional documentation string. Can contain line breaks. Must be at the beginning of the function body. Some will format the docstring so that lines are indented to match the first line, although the built-in DESCRIBE-func...

The &AUX keyword can be used to define local variables for the function. They are not parameters; the user cannot supply them. &AUX variables are seldomly used. You can always use LET instead, or some other way of defining local variables in the function body. &AUX variables have the a...

Functions always establish a block around the body. This block has the same name as the function name. This means you can use RETURN-FROM with this block name to return from the function and return values. You should avoid returning early whenever possible. (defun foobar (x y) (when (oddp x) ...

Simple split of an IP number string. > (lispworks:split-sequence "." "127.0.0.1") ("127" "0" "0" "1") Simple split of an URL: > (lispworks:split-sequence ".:/" "http://127.0.0.1/foo/bar.html" ...

The search pattern can also be a regular expression. Running: grep '^[A-Z]' someFile.txt When someFile.txt contains: fred 14 m foo sam 68 m bar christina 83 f baz bob 22 m qux Sam 41 m quux Will produce the output: Sam 41 m quux since this is the only line in someFile.txt starting wi...

Scipy contains parts written in C, C++, and Fortran that need to be compiled before use. Therefore make sure the necessary compilers and Python development headers are installed. Having compiled code also means that Scipy needs additional steps to import from development sources, which are explained...

Say we have this code snippet. class A { public: int a; int b; A(const A &other) { this->a = other.a; this->b = other.b; } }; To create a copy constructor, that is, to make a function that copies an object and creates a new one, we norma...

The normal orElse method takes an Object, so you might wonder why there is an option to provide a Supplier here (the orElseGet method). Consider: String value = "something"; return Optional.ofNullable(value) .orElse(getValueThatIsHardToCalculate()); // returns "some...

A static member function is just like an ordinary C/C++ function, except with scope: It is inside a class, so it needs its name decorated with the class name; It has accessibility, with public, protected or private. So, if you have access to the static member function and decorate it correctl...

To access a member function of a class, you need to have a "handle" to the particular instance, as either the instance itself, or a pointer or reference to it. Given a class instance, you can point to various of its members with a pointer-to-member, IF you get the syntax correct! Of course...

sp_who2 This procedure can be used to find information on current SQL server sessions. Since it is a procedure, it's often helpful to store the results into a temporary table or table variable so one can order, filter, and transform the results as needed. The below can be used for a queryable v...

To create a mixin use the @mixin directive. @mixin default-box ($color, $borderColor) { color: $color; border: 1px solid $borderColor; clear: both; display: block; margin: 5px 0; padding: 5px 10px; } You can specify a list of arguments inside a parenthesis followin...

string nullString = null; string emptyString = ""; string whitespaceString = " "; string tabString = "\t"; string newlineString = "\n"; string nonEmptyString = "abc123"; bool result; result = String.IsNullOrEmpty(nullString); ...

In interfaces: interface IRunner { runSafe<T extends IRunnable>(runnable: T): void; } In classes: class Runner implements IRunner { public runSafe<T extends IRunnable>(runnable: T): void { try { runnable.run(); } catch(e) { } ...

Create generic class instance: var stringRunnable = new Runnable<string>(); Run generic function: function runSafe<T extends Runnable<U>, U>(runnable: T); // Specify the generic types: runSafe<Runnable<string>, string>(stringRunnable); // Let typescript figu...

Using the mmap module allows the user to randomly access locations in a file by mapping the file into memory. This is an alternative to using normal file operations. import mmap with open('filename.ext', 'r') as fd: # 0: map the whole file mm = mmap.mmap(fd.fileno(), 0) # print ...

Prefabs are an asset type that allows the storage of a complete GameObject with its components, properties, attached components and serialized property values. There are many scenarios where this is useful, including: Duplicating objects in a scene Sharing a common object across multiple scenes ...

The lubridate package provides convenient functions to format date and datetime objects from character strings. The functions are permutations of LetterElement to parseBase R equivalentyyear%y, %Ym (with y and d)month%m, %b, %h, %Bdday%d, %ehhour%H, %I%pm (with h and s)minute%Msseconds%S e.g. ymd(...

You can alternatively use an Object Declaration that contains the main function for a Kotlin program. package my.program object App { @JvmStatic fun main(args: Array<String>) { println("Hello World") } } The class name that you will run is the name of you...
