If you are running Docker on OS X or Windows, docker-compose should be included in your Docker for Windows or Docker Toolbox installation. On Linux you can get the latest binaries straight from the GitHub release page: https://github.com/docker/compose/releases You can install the specific releas...

let list1 = [ 1; 2 ] let list2 = [ 1 .. 100 ] // Accessing an element printfn "%A" list1.[0] // Pattern matching let rec patternMatch aList = match aList with | [] -> printfn "This is an empty list" | head::tail -> printfn "This list consists o...

Create a .gitattributes file in the project root containing: * -text This is equivalent to setting core.autocrlf = false.

Create a .gitattributes file in the project root containing: * text=auto This will result in all text files (as identified by Git) being committed with LF, but checked out according to the host operating system default. This is equivalent to the recommended core.autocrlf defaults of: input o...

__construct() is the most common magic method in PHP, because it is used to set up a class when it is initialized. The opposite of the __construct() method is the __destruct() method. This method is called when there are no more references to an object that you created or when you force its deletion...

When contributors add to a project from different machines or operating systems, it may happen that they use different email addresses or names for this, which will fragment contributor lists and statistics. Running git shortlog -sn to get a list of contributors and the number of commits by them co...

Props are used to transfer data from parent to child component. Props are read only. Child component can only get the props passed from parent using this.props.keyName. Using props one can make his component reusable.

Whenever an object is treated as a string, the __toString() method is called. This method should return a string representation of the class. class User { public $first_name; public $last_name; public $age; public function __toString() { return "{$this->first_...

Generally speaking, empty commits (or commits with state that is identical to the parent) is an error. However, when testing build hooks, CI systems, and other systems that trigger off a commit, it's handy to be able to easily create commits without having to edit/touch a dummy file. The --allow-e...

It's a very common extension that allows type classes with multiple type parameters. You can think of MPTC as a relation between types. {-# LANGUAGE MultiParamTypeClasses #-} class Convertable a b where convert :: a -> b instance Convertable Int Float where convert i = fromIntegr...

Regular instances require: All instance types must be of the form (T a1 ... an) where a1 ... an are *distinct type variables*, and each type variable appears at most once in the instance head. That means that, for example, while you can create an instance for [a] you can't create an instance f...

Normally, string literals in Haskell have a type of String (which is a type alias for [Char]). While this isn't a problem for smaller, educational programs, real-world applications often require more efficient storage such as Text or ByteString. OverloadedStrings simply changes the type of literals...

A syntactic extension that allows applying the tuple constructor (which is an operator) in a section way: (a,b) == (,) a b -- With TupleSections (a,b) == (,) a b == (a,) b == (,b) a N-tuples It also works for tuples with arity greater than two (,2,) 1 3 == (1,2,3) Mapping This can be u...

Standard Haskell allows you to write integer literals in decimal (without any prefix), hexadecimal (preceded by 0x or 0X), and octal (preceded by 0o or 0O). The BinaryLiterals extension adds the option of binary (preceded by 0b or 0B). 0b1111 == 15 -- evaluates to: True

This is a type system extension that allows types that are existentially quantified, or, in other words, have type variables that only get instantiated at runtime†. A value of existential type is similar to an abstract-base-class reference in OO languages: you don't know the exact type in contains,...

Originally proposed by Vincent Driessen, Gitflow is a development workflow using git and several pre-defined branches. This can seen as a special case of the Feature Branch Workflow. The idea of this one is to have separate branches reserved for specific parts in development: master branch is al...

With this fundamental workflow model, a master branch contains all active development. Contributors will need to be especially sure they pull the latest changes before continuing development, for this branch will be changing rapidly. Everyone has access to this repo and can commit changes right to t...

Database transactions ensure that a set of data changes will only be made permanent if every statement is successful. Any query or code failure during a transaction can be caught and you then have the option to roll back the attempted changes. PDO provides simple methods for beginning, committing,...

In this example, documentation for the local function baz (defined in foo.m) can be accessed either by the resulting link in help foo, or directly through help foo>baz. function bar = foo %This is documentation for FOO. % See also foo>baz % This wont be printed, because there is a line w...
