Generates a storable representation of a value. This is useful for storing or passing PHP values around without losing their type and structure. To make the serialized string into a PHP value again, use unserialize(). Serializing a string $string = "Hello world"; echo serialize($s...

Problem # models.py: class Library(models.Model): name = models.CharField(max_length=100) books = models.ManyToManyField(Book) class Book(models.Model): title = models.CharField(max_length=100) # views.py def myview(request): # Query the database. libraries = Librar...

Problem Django querysets are evaluated in a lazy fashion. For example: # models.py: class Author(models.Model): name = models.CharField(max_length=100) class Book(models.Model): author = models.ForeignKey(Author, related_name='books') title = models.CharField(max_length=100) ...

C++17 Normally, elision is an optimization. While virtually every compiler support copy elision in the simplest of cases, having elision still places a particular burden on users. Namely, the type who's copy/move is being elided must still have the copy/move operation that was elided. For example:...

If you return an lvalue expression from a function, and this lvalue: represents an automatic variable local to that function, which will be destroyed after the return the automatic variable is not a function parameter and the type of the variable is the same type as the function's return type ...

The bisect command helps you to track down the changeset that introduced a bug. Reset the bisect state and mark the current revision as bad (it contains the bug!) hg bisect --reset hg bisect --bad Go back to a point where you think the bug isn't present hg update -r -200 Now...

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...

When we want to create an orderable class, normally we need to define the methods __eq()__, __lt__(), __le__(), __gt__() and __ge__(). The total_ordering decorator, applied to a class, permits the definition of __eq__() and only one between __lt__(), __le__(), __gt__() and __ge__(), and still allow...

In Python 3.x, the reduce function already explained here has been removed from the built-ins and must now be imported from functools. from functools import reduce def factorial(n): return reduce(lambda a, b: (a*b), range(1, n+1))

/// <summary> /// Gets a BackgroundTask by its name /// </summary> /// <param name="taskName">Name of the task to find</param> /// <returns>The found Task or null if none found</returns> public BackgroundTaskRegistration TaskByName(string taskName) ...

private bool IsTaskRegistered(string taskName) => BackgroundTaskRegistration.AllTasks.Any(x => x.Value.Name.Equals(taskName));

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-...

now_dt <- ymd_hms(now(), tz="IST") now_dt ## [1] "2016-07-22 13:53:09 IST" round_date() takes a date-time object and rounds it to the nearest integer value of the specified time unit. round_date(now_dt, "minute") ## [1] "2016-07-22 13:53:00 IST" r...

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...

GROUP BY is used in combination with aggregation functions.

kotlin-gradle-plugin is used to compile Kotlin code with Gradle. Basically, its version should correspond to the Kotlin version you want to use. E.g. if you want to use Kotlin 1.0.3, then you need to aplly kotlin-gradle-plugin version 1.0.3 too. It's a good idea to externalize this version in gradl...

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...
