Function overloading is having multiple functions declared in the same scope with the exact same name exist in the same place (known as scope) differing only in their signature, meaning the arguments they accept. Suppose you are writing a series of functions for generalized printing capabilities, b...

A std::vector can be initialized in several ways while declaring it: C++11 std::vector<int> v{ 1, 2, 3 }; // v becomes {1, 2, 3} // Different from std::vector<int> v(3, 6) std::vector<int> v{ 3, 6 }; // v becomes {3, 6} // Different from std::vector<int> v{3, ...

You can iterate over a std::vector in several ways. For each of the following sections, v is defined as follows: std::vector<int> v; Iterating in the Forward Direction C++11 // Range based for for(const auto& value: v) { std::cout << value << "\n"; } /...

There are several ways to use a std::vector as a C array (for example, for compatibility with C libraries). This is possible because the elements in a vector are stored contiguously. C++11 std::vector<int> v{ 1, 2, 3 }; int* p = v.data(); In contrast to solutions based on previous C++ st...

This page describes how to use the Meteor command-line tool (for example, when downloading packages, deploying your app, etc) behind a proxy server. Like a lot of other command-line software, the Meteor tool reads the proxy configuration from the HTTP_PROXY and HTTPS_PROXY environment variables (th...

If you don't want to add Unix commands to your PATH on Windows, you can download a standalone SSH client like PuTTY. Download PuTTY here, then follow the instructions below to get a build machine. Call meteor admin get-machine <os-architecture> --json Copy and save the private key from the...

To get the “available” area of the screen (i.e. not including any bars on the edges of the screen, but including window chrome and other windows: var availableArea = { pos: { x: window.screen.availLeft, y: window.screen.availTop }, size: { width: window.scr...

Iterators are Positions Iterators are a means of navigating and operating on a sequence of elements and are a generalized extension of pointers. Conceptually it is important to remember that iterators are positions, not elements. For example, take the following sequence: A B C The sequence co...

A common pitfall is confusing the equality comparison operators is and ==. a == b compares the value of a and b. a is b will compare the identities of a and b. To illustrate: a = 'Python is fun!' b = 'Python is fun!' a == b # returns True a is b # returns False a = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5] b = a ...

password_verify() is the built-in function provided (as of PHP 5.5) to verify the validity of a password against a known hash. <?php if (password_verify($plaintextPassword, $hashedPassword)) { echo 'Valid Password'; } else { echo 'Invalid Password.'; } ?> All supported hashi...

Unlike classes, which are passed by reference, structures are passed through copying: first = "Hello" second = first first += " World!" // first == "Hello World!" // second == "Hello" String is a structure, therefore it's copied on assignment. Structu...

Add the following target in your build.xml <!-- Bootstrap ivy --> <target name="ivy.bootstrap" description="Download Apache Ivy"> <!-- Define the version to use --> <property name="ivy.version">2.4.0</property> <!-- ...

Declare a new variable with var, followed by a name, type, and value: var num: Int = 10 Variables can have their values changed: num = 20 // num now equals 20 Unless they're defined with let: let num: Int = 10 // num cannot change Swift infers the type of variable, so you don't always ha...

Local variables are defined within a function, method, or closure: func printSomething() { let localString = "I'm local!" print(localString) } func printSomethingAgain() { print(localString) // error } Global variables are defined outside of a function, method, or c...

The following is handy to have in build logs that identifies the build machine, and some parameters; simply make you main task depend on this task to print it before every build. <!-- Print Environment Info --> <target name="environment"> <!-- Get the current ti...

<?php ob_start(); ?> <html> <head> <title>Example invoice</title> </head> <body> <h1>Invoice #0000</h1> <h2>Cost: £15,000</h2> ... </body> </html> <?php...

If you have already added a file to your Git repository and now want to stop tracking it (so that it won't be present in future commits), you can remove it from the index: git rm --cached <file> This will remove the file from the repository and prevent further changes from being tracked by...

In this example, we'll be looking at how to store a credit card using the PayPal vault, then reference that stored credit card to process a credit card transaction for a user. The reason why we would want to use the vault is so that we don't have to store sensitive credit card information on our ow...

For JavaScript, here is the code we recommend for generating, persisting and retrieving a UUID. This could be wrapped in a function can called directly from the PUBNUB.init function rather than the two step inline solution below. // get/create/store UUID var UUID = PUBNUB.db.get('session') || (fun...
