Introduction The GNU Make (styled make) is a program dedicated to the automation of executing shell commands. GNU Make is one specific program that falls under the Make family. Make remains popular among Unix-like and POSIX-like operating systems, including those derived from the Linux kernel, Mac ...

The Windows API is provided by means of a C-callable interface. Success or failure of an API call is reported strictly through return values. Exceptions aren't part of the documented contract (although some API implementations can raise SEH exceptions, e.g. when passing a read-only lpCommandLine arg...

Some API calls return a single failure/success flag, without any additional information (e.g. GetObject): if ( GetObjectW( obj, 0, NULL ) == 0 ) { // Failure: no additional information available. }

In addition to a failure/success return value, some API calls also set the last error on failure (e.g. CreateWindow). The documentation usually contains the following standard wording for this case: If the function succeeds, the return value is <API-specific success value>. If the function...

Some API calls can succeed or fail in more than one way. The APIs commonly return additional information for both successful invocations as well as errors (e.g. CreateMutex). if ( CreateMutexW( NULL, TRUE, L"Global\\MyNamedMutex" ) == NULL ) { // Failure: get additional information. ...

HRESULTs are numeric 32-bit values, where bits or bit ranges encode well-defined information. The MSB is a failure/success flag, with the remaining bits storing additional information. Failure or success can be determined using the FAILED or SUCCEEDED macros. HRESULTs are commonly used with COM, but...

When implementing SFINAE using std::enable_if, it is often useful to have access to helper templates that determines if a given type T matches a set of criteria. To help us with that, the standard already provides two types analog to true and false which are std::true_type and std::false_type. The...

Add the following code (known as the "JavaScript tracking snippet") to your site's templates. The code should be added before the closing tag, and the string 'UA-XXXXX-Y' should be replaced with the property ID (also called the "tracking ID") of the Google Analytics property yo...

In Drupal 7 and lower, your configuration is probably stored using the Features module. To update a feature with changes from the databases use this command: drush features-update [feature-name] // e.g. drush features-update content_type_news You can also use this shorthand: drush fu [feature-n...

HTTP/1.1 404 Not Found Most often, the requested file was deleted, but sometimes it can be a document root misconfiguration or a lack of permissions (though missing permissions more frequentl...

Start with iter() built-in to get iterator over iterable and use next() to get elements one by one until StopIteration is raised signifying the end: s = {1, 2} # or list or generator or even iterator i = iter(s) # get iterator a = next(i) # a = 1 b = next(i) # b = 2 c = next(i) # raises S...

You can calculate a number in the Fibonacci sequence using recursion. Following the math theory of F(n) = F(n-2) + F(n-1), for any i > 0, // Returns the i'th Fibonacci number public int fib(int i) { if(i <= 2) { // Base case of the recursive function. // i is either 1...

JSON stands for "JavaScript Object Notation", but it's not JavaScript. Think of it as just a data serialization format that happens to be directly usable as a JavaScript literal. However, it is not advisable to directly run (i.e. through eval()) JSON that is fetched from an external source...
