A delegate is a common design pattern used in Cocoa and CocoaTouch frameworks, where one class delegates responsibility for implementing some functionality to another. This follows a principle of separation of concerns, where the framework class implements generic functionality while a separate dele...

One method is available for counting the number of occurrences of a sub-string in another string, str.count. str.count(sub[, start[, end]]) str.count returns an int indicating the number of non-overlapping occurrences of the sub-string sub in another string. The optional arguments start and end ...

Routes are defined in config/routes.rb. They are often defined as a group of related routes, using the resources or resource methods. resources :users creates the following seven routes, all mapping to actions of UsersController: get '/users', to: 'users#index' post '/users', ...

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 */ ...

A string literal in C is a sequence of chars, terminated by a literal zero. char* str = "hello, world"; /* string literal */ /* string literals can be used to initialize arrays */ char a1[] = "abc"; /* a1 is char[4] holding {'a','b','c','\0'} */ char a2[4] = "abc"...

C99 The header <stdint.h> provides several fixed-width integer type definitions. These types are optional and only provided if the platform has an integer type of the corresponding width, and if the corresponding signed type has a two's complement representation of negative values. See the r...

Magic (also called dunder as an abbreviation for double-underscore) methods in Python serve a similar purpose to operator overloading in other languages. They allow a class to define its behavior when it is used as an operand in unary or binary operator expressions. They also serve as implementation...

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...

Jsoup can be used to extract links and email address from a webpage, thus "Web email address collector bot" First, this code uses a Regular expression to extract the email addresses, and then uses methods provided by Jsoup to extract the URLs of links on the page. public class JSoupTest {...

After starting a merge, you might want to stop the merge and return everything to its pre-merge state. Use --abort: git merge --abort

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 ...

String literals in Swift are delimited with double quotes ("): let greeting = "Hello!" // greeting's type is String Characters can be initialized from string literals, as long as the literal contains only one grapheme cluster: let chr: Character = "H" // valid let chr...

var a = Math.random(); Sample value of a: 0.21322848065742162 Math.random() returns a random number between 0 (inclusive) and 1 (exclusive) function getRandom() { return Math.random(); } To use Math.random() to get a number from an arbitrary range (not [0,1)) use this function to get a...

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...

# No import needed # No import required... from functools import reduce # ... but it can be loaded from the functools module from functools import reduce # mandatory reduce reduces an iterable by applying a function repeatedly on the next element of an iterable and the cumulative resul...

# 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...

For example, you can take the absolute value of each element: list(map(abs, (1, -1, 2, -2, 3, -3))) # the call to `list` is unnecessary in 2.x # Out: [1, 1, 2, 2, 3, 3] Anonymous function also support for mapping a list: map(lambda x:x*2, [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]) # Out: [2, 4, 6, 8, 10] or convert...

For example calculating the average of each i-th element of multiple iterables: def average(*args): return float(sum(args)) / len(args) # cast to float - only mandatory for python 2.x measurement1 = [100, 111, 99, 97] measurement2 = [102, 117, 91, 102] measurement3 = [104, 102, 95, 101] ...

Xcode projects are used to organize source files, library dependencies, and other resources, as well as the settings and steps required to build the project's products. Workspaces are groups of projects and other files. Create a project You can create a New Project (⇧⌘N) from a number of built-in ...

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...
