Python 2.x2.7 In Python 2 filter, map and zip built-in functions return a sequence. map and zip always return a list while with filter the return type depends on the type of given parameter: >>> s = filter(lambda x: x.isalpha(), 'a1b2c3') >>> s 'abc' >>> s = map(lambd...

The partial function creates partial function application from another function. It is used to bind values to some of the function's arguments (or keyword arguments) and produce a callable without the already defined arguments. >>> from functools import partial >>> unhex = partia...

Lubridate provides ymd() series of functions for parsing character strings into dates. The letters y, m, and d correspond to the year, month, and day elements of a date-time. mdy("07-21-2016") # Returns Date ## [1] "2016-07-21" mdy("07-21-2016", t...

date <- now() date ## "2016-07-22 03:42:35 IST" year(date) ## 2016 minute(date) ## 42 wday(date, label = T, abbr = T) # [1] Fri # Levels: Sun < Mon < Tues < Wed < Thurs < Fri < Sat day(date) <- 31 ## "2016-07-31 03:42:35 IST" # If an ...

Intervals are simplest way of recording timespans in lubridate. An interval is a span of time that occurs between two specific instants. # create interval by substracting two instants today_start <- ymd_hms("2016-07-22 12-00-00", tz="IST") today_start ## [1] "2016-07-...

Unlike durations, periods can be used to accurately model clock times without knowing when events such as leap seconds, leap days, and DST changes occur. start_2012 <- ymd_hms("2012-01-01 12:00:00") ## [1] "2012-01-01 12:00:00 UTC" # period() considers leap year calculati...

CSS: div{ width:200px; height:200px; background:teal; clip-path: polygon(0 0, 0 100%, 100% 50%); /* refer remarks before usage */ } HTML: <div></div> In the above example, a polygonal clipping path is used to clip the square (200 x 200) element into a triangle shape....

CSS: div{ width: 200px; height: 200px; background: teal; clip-path: circle(30% at 50% 50%); /* refer remarks before usage */ } HTML <div></div> This example shows how to clip a div to a circle. The element is clipped into a circle whose radius is 30% based on the dim...

GROUP BY is used in combination with aggregation functions. Consider the following table: orderIduserIdstoreNameorderValueorderDate143Store A2520-03-2016257Store B5022-03-2016343Store A3025-03-2016482Store C1026-03-2016521Store A4529-03-2016 The query below uses GROUP BY to perform aggregated calc...

Protocol Oriented Programming is a useful tool in order to easily write better unit tests for our code. Let's say we want to test a UIViewController that relies on a ViewModel class. The needed steps on the production code are: Define a protocol that exposes the public interface of the class Vi...

You can use fprintf on a file just like you might on a console with printf. For example to keep track of game wins, losses and ties you might write /* saves wins, losses and, ties */ void savewlt(FILE *fout, int wins, int losses, int ties) { fprintf(fout, "Wins: %d\nTies: %d\nLosses: %d...

#include <stdio.h> void print_all(FILE *stream) { int c; while ((c = getc(stream)) != EOF) putchar(c); } int main(void) { FILE *stream; /* call netstat command. netstat is available for Windows and Linux */ if ((stream = popen("netstat", &qu...

Using a custom inspector allows you to change the way a script is drawn in the Inspector. Sometimes you want to add extra information in the inspector for your script that isn't possible to do with a custom property drawer. Below is a simple example of a custom object that with using a custom inspe...

Sometimes you have custom objects that contain data but do not derive from MonoBehaviour. Adding these objects as a field in a class that is MonoBehaviour will have no visual effect unless you write your own custom property drawer for the object's type. Below is a simple example of a custom object,...

In CSS3, we can stack multiple background in the same element. #mydiv { background-image: url(img_1.png), /* top image */ url(img_2.png), /* middle image */ url(img_3.png); /* bottom image */ background-position: right bottom, ...

The interface you defined needs to be implemented in every targeted platform. For iOS this is done through the AVFoundation framework. The following implementation of the ITextToSpeech interface handles speaking a given text in English. using AVFoundation; public class TextToSpeechiOS : ITextToS...

The Android specific implementation is a bit more complex because it forces you to inherit from a native Java.Lang.Object and forces you to implement the IOnInitListener interface. Android requires you to provide a valid Android context for a lot of the SDK methods it exposes. Xamarin.Forms exposes ...
