Sometimes it's necessary to convert a Discriminated Union to and from a string: module UnionConversion open Microsoft.FSharp.Reflection let toString (x: 'a) = match FSharpValue.GetUnionFields(x, typeof<'a>) with | case, _ -> case.Name let fromStri...

Given the text: foo: bar I would like to replace anything following "foo: " with "baz", but I want to keep "foo: ". This could be done with a capturing group like this: s/(foo: ).*/$1baz/ Which results in the text: foo: baz Example 1 or we could use \K,...

Date and LocalDate objects cannot be exactly converted between each other since a Date object represents both a specific day and time, while a LocalDate object does not contain time or timezone information. However, it can be useful to convert between the two if you only care about the actual date i...

Software needed: Arduino IDE Setup Most Arduino-compatible boards have a USB port and come with a USB cable. Plug in the Arduino using the USB cable, and start up the Arduino IDE. Arduino IDE will start with a new sketch, typically with an emtpy setup() and loop() functions. This is enough to u...

When working on a project, you might be half-way through a feature branch change when a bug is raised against master. You're not ready to commit your code, but you also don't want to lose your changes. This is where git stash comes in handy. Run git status on a branch to show your uncommitted chang...

Big-O notation is a notation used to talk about the long-term growth rates of functions. It's often used in the analysis of algorithms to talk about the runtime of an algorithm or related concepts like space complexity. In common usage, big-O notation is used to talk about how an algorithm's runtim...

1. Install Node.js and NPM: Gulp requires Node.js and NPM, Node's package manager. Most installers include NPM with Node.js. Refer to the installation documentation or confirm it is already installed by running the following command in your terminal, npm -v // will return NPM version or error say...

A simple switch statement: switch a + b { case c: // do something case d: // do something else default: // do something entirely different } The above example is equivalent to: if a + b == c { // do something } else if a + b == d { // do something else } else { ...

A simple if statement: if a == b { // do something } Note that there are no parentheses surrounding the condition and that the opening curly brace { must be on the same line. The following will not compile: if a == b { // do something } An if statement making use of else: if...

There are a variety of undocumented methods on UIColorwhich expose alternate colors or functionality. These can be found in the UIColor private header file. I will document the use of two private methods, styleString() and _systemDestructiveTintColor(). styleString Since iOS 2.0 there is a priva...

The order of keys in Python dictionaries is arbitrary: they are not governed by the order in which you add them. For example: >>> d = {'foo': 5, 'bar': 6} >>> print(d) {'foo': 5, 'bar': 6} >>> d['baz'] = 7 >>> print(a) {'baz': 7, 'foo': 5, 'bar': 6} >&g...

This example comes from the official document. Suppose you have a python application using redis as backend. After writing Dockerfile, create a docker-compose.yml file like this: version: '2' services: web: build: . ports: - "5000:5000" volumes: - .:/code ...

You can add wildcards in string resources and populate them at runtime: Edit strings.xml <string name="my_string">This is %1$s</string> Format string as needed String fun = "fun"; context.getString(R.string.my_string, fun);

For full description of patterns, see SimpleDateFormat reference Date now = new Date(); long timestamp = now.getTime(); SimpleDateFormat sdf = new SimpleDateFormat("MM/dd/yyyy", Locale.US); String dateStr = sdf.format(timestamp);

The return statement can be used to exit function and subroutine. Unlike many other programming languages it is not used to set the return value. real function f(x) real, intent(in) :: x integer :: i f = x do i = 1, 10 f = sqrt(f) - 1.0 if (f < 0) then f = -1...

Functions can modify the parameters passed to them if they are marked with the inout keyword. When passing an inout parameter to a function, the caller must add a & to the variable being passed. func updateFruit(fruit: inout Int) { fruit -= 1 } var apples = 30 // Prints "There's 3...
