Program units often make use of literal constants. These cover the obvious cases like print *, "Hello", 1, 1.0 Except in one case, each literal constant is a scalar which has type, type parameters and value given by the syntax. Integer literal constants are of the form 1 -1 -1_1 ...

You can call a function in Racket by wrapping it in parentheses with the arguments after it. This looks like (function argument ...). > (define (f x) x) > (f 1) 1 > (f "salmon") "salmon" > (define (g x y) (string-append x y)) > (g "large" "sal...

A common pattern in C# is using bool TryParse(object input, out object value) to safely parse objects. The out var declaration is a simple feature to improve readability. It allows a variable to be declared at the same time that is it passed as an out parameter. A variable declared this way is sco...

The 0b prefix can be used to represent Binary literals. Binary literals allow constructing numbers from zeroes and ones, which makes seeing which bits are set in the binary representation of a number much easier. This can be useful for working with binary flags. The following are equivalent ways o...

Basics A tuple is an ordered, finite list of elements. Tuples are commonly used in programming as a means to work with one single entity collectively instead of individually working with each of the tuple's elements, and to represent individual rows (ie. "records") in a relational databa...

Local functions are defined within a method and aren't available outside of it. They have access to all local variables and support iterators, async/await and lambda syntax. This way, repetitions specific to a function can be functionalized without crowding the class. As a side effect, this improves...

Define AccumulatorParam import org.apache.spark.AccumulatorParam object StringAccumulator extends AccumulatorParam[String] { def zero(s: String): String = s def addInPlace(s1: String, s2: String)= s1 + s2 } Use: val accumulator = sc.accumulator("")(StringAccumulator) sc.pa...

Define AccumulatorParam: from pyspark import AccumulatorParam class StringAccumulator(AccumulatorParam): def zero(self, s): return s def addInPlace(self, s1, s2): return s1 + s2 accumulator = sc.accumulator("", StringAccumulator()) def add(x): gl...

Let there be Activity B that can be opened, and can further start more Activities. But, user should not encounter it when navigating back in task activities. The simplest solution is to set the attribute noHistory to true for that <activity> tag in AndroidManifest.xml: <activity a...

BeautifulSoup has a limited support for CSS selectors, but covers most commonly used ones. Use select() method to find multiple elements and select_one() to find a single element. Basic example: from bs4 import BeautifulSoup data = """ <ul> <li class="item&quo...

When the destructor for std::thread is invoked, a call to either join() or detach() must have been made. If a thread has not been joined or detached, then by default std::terminate will be called. Using RAII, this is generally simple enough to accomplish: class thread_joiner { public: thre...

This example was done in order to demonstrate how you can perform a deep filter in a child array without the necessity of a custom filter. Controller: (function() { "use strict"; angular .module('app', []) .controller('mainCtrl', mainCtrl); function mainCtrl() { ...

Download a distributed archive from Binaries section of JMeter from Download Apache JMeter page. Depending on the version you downloaded, check minimal Java version requirements and install Java if needed. Ensure the JAVA_HOME environment variable is set and points to a correct version. ...

Installing Wildfly is just a matter of unzipping the distribution into your local machine. Wildfly can be dowloaded from its official website. Once it is unzipped go in to bin directory of installation and run standalone.sh for Linux systems or standalone.bat for Windows systems to start your WildF...

.SD .SD refers to the subset of the data.table for each group, excluding all columns used in by. .SD along with lapply can be used to apply any function to multiple columns by group in a data.table We will continue using the same built-in dataset, mtcars: mtcars = data.table(mtcars) # Let's not ...

Validating array form input fields is very simple. Suppose you have to validate each name, email and father name in a given array. You could do the following: $validator = \Validator::make($request->all(), [ 'name.*' => 'required', 'email.*' => 'email|unique:users'...

Sometimes it is appropriate to use an immutable empty collection. The Collections class provides methods to get such collections in an efficient way: List<String> anEmptyList = Collections.emptyList(); Map<Integer, Date> anEmptyMap = Collections.emptyMap(); Set<Number> anEmptySe...
