my @letters = ( 'a' .. 'z' ); # English ascii-bet print $letters[ rand @letters ] for 1 .. 5; # prints 5 letters at random How it works rand EXPR expects a scalar value, so @letters is evaluated in scalar context An array in scalar context returns the number of elements it ...

The example reads the first line from a file. It uses an instance of BufferedReader to read data from the file. BufferedReader is a resource that must be closed after the program is finished with it: static String readFirstLineFromFile(String path) throws IOException { try (BufferedReader br = n...

The following example shows other ways you can use the underscore in numeric literals: long creditCardNumber = 1234_5678_9012_3456L; long socialSecurityNumber = 999_99_9999L; float pi = 3.14_15F; long hexBytes = 0xFF_EC_DE_5E; long hexWords = 0xCAFE_BABE; long maxLong = 0x7fff_ffff_ffff_ffffL;...

public String getTypeOfDayWithSwitchStatement(String dayOfWeekArg) { String typeOfDay; switch (dayOfWeekArg) { case "Monday": typeOfDay = "Start of work week"; break; case "Tuesday": case "Wednes...

It is possible to ask a program to execute a specific section of code only if an if statement is considered false. For this, we use the else key word. if(statement) { // Code to execute if the statement is true. } else { // Code to execute if the statement is false. } Both code se...

A std::tuple<T...> can be used to pass multiple values around. For example, it could be used to store a sequence of parameters into some form of a queue. When processing such a tuple its elements need to be turned into function call arguments: #include <array> #include <iostream>...

std::integer_sequence itself is about holding a sequence of integers which can be turned into a parameter pack. Its primary value is the possibility to create "factory" class templates creating these sequences: #include <iostream> #include <initializer_list> #include <uti...

Expanding the parameter pack of indices in a comma expression with a value creates a copy of the value for each of the indices. Sadly, gcc and clang think the index has no effect and warn about it (gcc can be silenced by casting the index to void): #include <algorithm> #include <array>...

What is PS1 PS1 denotes Prompt String 1. It is the one of the prompt available in Linux/UNIX shell.

An HTTP request took longer than 30 seconds to complete. In the example below, a Rails app takes 37 seconds to render the page; the HTTP router returns a 503 prior to Rails completing its request cycle, but the Rails process continues and the completion message shows after the router message. 2010-...

So the main goal of this function is to : Be standalone because it needs to be written in the main VbScript file and cannot be in an included file (because it defines the include function) Provide enough information if something goes wrong (ie. the file that was being included, the error that oc...

If our component is not ready and waiting for data from server, then we can add loader using *ngIf. Steps: First declare a boolean: loading: boolean = false; Next, in your component add a lifecycle hook called ngOnInit ngOnInit() { this.loading = true; } and after you get complete dat...

<p class="alert alert-success" *ngIf="names.length > 2">Currently there are more than 2 names!</p>

<?php if (!function_exists('document')) { function document($text = '') { return $text; } } Create a helpers.php file, let's assume for now it lives in app/Helpers/document.php. You can put many helpers in one file (this is how Laravel does it) or you can split them up b...

Increment / Decrement A pointer can be incremented or decremented (prefix and postfix). Incrementing a pointer advances the pointer value to the element in the array one element past the currently pointed to element. Decrementing a pointer moves it to the previous element in the array. Pointer ari...

Display the date by itself (custom field is tour_date): <p>Tour Date <?php the_field('tour_date');?></p>

Let's say you want to show a text field (announcement) based on the time (a scheduled notification message for instance). You need two date-time fields. In our example, one is called start_date and the other end_date. <?php $DateNow = date('Y-m-d H:i:s'); $DateStart = get_field('start_date',...
