6.0 Introduced in C# 6.0, the Null Conditional Operator ?. will immediately return null if the expression on its left-hand side evaluates to null, instead of throwing a NullReferenceException. If its left-hand side evaluates to a non-null value, it is treated just like a normal . operator. Note tha...

int a; std::cout << a; // Undefined behavior! This results in undefined behavior, because a is uninitialised. It is often, incorrectly, claimed that this is because the value is "indeterminate", or "whatever value was in that memory location before". However, it is th...

In order to record audio from a user's microphone, we must first gain permission from the user to access the device: navigator.mediaDevices.getUserMedia({ audio: true }) .then(successCallback) .catch(failureCallback); On success, our successCallback will be called with a MediaStream ob...

The keyword auto provides the auto-deduction of type of a variable. It is especially convenient when dealing with long type names: std::map< std::string, std::shared_ptr< Widget > > table; // C++98 std::map< std::string, std::shared_ptr< Widget > >::iterator i = table.fin...

Download and extract the OSGi starter kit for your platform from Equinox download page for Neon release. Start the framework from the rt/plugins folder with the following command (or your platform's rt executable from the rt folder): rt/plugins$ java -jar org.eclipse.equinox.launcher_1.3.200.v2016...

Unification is a pure relation. It does not produce side effects and can be used in all directions, with either or both arguments fully or only partially instantiated. In Prolog, unification can happen explicitly, using built-in predicates like (=)/2 or unify_with_occurs_check/2 implicitly, whe...

Optionals (also known as Maybe types) are used to represent a type whose contents may or may not be present. They are implemented in C++17 as the std::optional class. For example, an object of type std::optional<int> may contain some value of type int, or it may contain no value. Optionals ar...

local function A(name, age, hobby) print(name .. "is " .. age .. " years old and likes " .. hobby) end A("john", "eating", 23) --> prints 'john is eating years old and likes 23' -- oops, seems we got the order of the arguments wrong... -- this happ...

Prerequisites In order to run Elasticsearch, a Java Runtime Environment (JRE) is required on the machine. Elasticsearch requires Java 7 or higher and recommends Oracle JDK version 1.8.0_73. Install Oracle Java 8 sudo add-apt-repository -y ppa:webupd8team/java sudo apt-get update echo "or...

The Locals window provides easy access to the current value of variables and objects within the scope of the function or subroutine you are running. It is an essential tool to debugging your code and stepping through changes in order to find issues. It also allows you to explore properties you might...

In ASP.NET Web API, a controller is a class that handles HTTP requests. The public methods of the controller are called action methods or simply actions. When the Web API framework receives a request, it routes the request to an action. To determine which action to invoke, the framework uses a rou...

To load a bundled image: package com.example; public class ExampleApplication { private Image getIcon() throws IOException { URL imageURL = ExampleApplication.class.getResource("icon.png"); return ImageIO.read(imageURL); } }

<template name="myTemplate"> {{#each results}} <div><span>{{name}}</span><span>{{age}}</span></div> {{/each}} </template> Template.myTemplate.onCreated(function() { this.results = new ReactiveVar(); Meteor.call('myMethod'...

A template autorun may be used to (re)subscribe to a publication. It establishes a reactive context which is re-executed whenever any reactive data it depends on changes. In addition, an autorun always runs once (the first time it is executed). Template autoruns are normally put in an onCreated met...

CREATE FUNCTION FirstWord (@input varchar(1000)) RETURNS varchar(1000) AS BEGIN DECLARE @output varchar(1000) SET @output = SUBSTRING(@input, 0, CASE CHARINDEX(' ', @input) WHEN 0 THEN LEN(@input) + 1 ELSE CHARINDEX(' ', @input) END) RETURN @output END ...

You can use the Substring method to get any number of characters from a string at any given location. However, if you only want a single character, you can use the string indexer to get a single character at any given index like you do with an array: string s = "hello"; char c = s[1]; //...

NSString *htmlString = @"<p> This is an <b>HTML</b> text</p>"; NSAttributedString *attributedString = [[NSMutableAttributedString alloc] initWithData: [htmlString dataUsingEncoding:NSUnicodeStringEncoding] ...

To create minification-safe angular controllers, you will change the controller function parameters. The second argument in the module.controller function should be passed an array, where the last parameter is the controller function, and every parameter before that is the name of each injected val...
