Incrementing (++) and Decrementing Operators (--)

Variables can be incremented or decremented by 1 with ++ or --, respectively. They can either precede or succeed variables and slightly vary semantically, as shown below. $i = 1; echo $i; // Prints 1 // Pre-increment operator increments $i by one, then returns $i echo ++$i; // Prints 2 // P...

Synchronization Primitive: Event

Concept Use an Event to synchronize the scheduling of multiple coroutines. Put simply, an event is like the gun shot at a running race: it lets the runners off the starting blocks. Example import asyncio # event trigger function def trigger(event): print('EVENT SET') event.set() #...

Avoiding gaps in tables used as arrays

Defining our terms By array here we mean a Lua table used as a sequence. For example: -- Create a table to store the types of pets we like. local pets = {"dogs", "cats", "birds"} We're using this table as a sequence: a group of items keyed by integers. Many langua...

Pointer Conversions in Function Calls

Pointer conversions to void* are implicit, but any other pointer conversion must be explicit. While the compiler allows an explicit conversion from any pointer-to-data type to any other pointer-to-data type, accessing an object through a wrongly typed pointer is erroneous and leads to undefined beh...

Synchronously executing asynchronous NPM methods w/ callbacks.

This example wraps the asynchronous method oauth2.client.getToken(callback) from the package NPM package simple-oauth2into a Fiber so that the method may be called synchronously. const oauth2 = require('simple-oauth2')(credentials); const credentials = { clientID: '#####', clientSecret...

Zip

The Zip extension method acts upon two collections. It pairs each element in the two series together based on position. With a Func instance, we use Zip to handle elements from the two C# collections in pairs. If the series differ in size, the extra elements of the larger series will be ignored. To...

Reuse of primitive objects

An interesting thing to note which may help optimize your applications is that primitives are actually also refcounted under the hood. Let's take a look at numbers; for all integers between -5 and 256, Python always reuses the same object: >>> import sys >>> sys.getrefcount(1) 7...

Create and use a GnuPG key quickly

Install haveged (example sudo apt-get install haveged) to speed up the random byte process. Then: gpg --gen-key gpg --list-keys outputs: pub 2048R/NNNNNNNN 2016-01-01 uid Name <[email protected]> sub 2048R/xxxxxxxx 2016-01-01 Then publish: gpg --keyserver pgp.mi...
