The StringBuffer, StringBuilder, Formatter and StringJoiner classes are Java SE utility classes that are primarily used for assembling strings from other information: The StringBuffer class has been present since Java 1.0, and provides a variety of methods for building and modifying a "buf...

git config --global merge.conflictstyle diff3 Sets the diff3 style as default: instead of the usual format in conflicted sections, showing the two files: <<<<<<< HEAD left ======= right >>>>>>> master it will include an additional section containi...

Rails files - and Ruby files in general - should be named with lower_snake_case filenames. E.g. app/controllers/application_controller.rb is the file that contains the ApplicationController class definition. Note that while PascalCase is used for class and module names, the files in which they r...

The following query returns the database options and metadata: select * from sys.databases WHERE name = 'MyDatabaseName';

parseFloat accepts a string as an argument which it converts to a float/ parseFloat("10.01") // = 10.01

// explicit type declaration let some_value: Option<u32> = Some(13); // implicit type declaration let some_other_value = Some(66);

Generics types can have more than one type parameters, eg. Result is defined like this: pub enum Result<T, E> { Ok(T), Err(E), }

// Only accept T and U generic types that also implement Debug fn print_objects<T: Debug, U: Debug>(a: T, b: U) { println!("A: {:?} B: {:?}", a, b); } print_objects(13, 44); // or annotated explicitly print_objects::<usize, u16>(13, 44); The bounds must cover a...

Generic functions allow some or all of their arguments to be parameterised. fn convert_values<T, U>(input_value: T) -> Result<U, String> { // Try and convert the value. // Actual code will require bounds on the types T, U to be able to do something with them. } If the compi...

You can use curly braces to interpolate expressions into string literals: def f(x: String) = x + x val a = "A" s"${a}" // "A" s"${f(a)}" // "AA" Without the braces, scala would only interpolate the identifier after the $ (in this case f...

Git is pretty good at identifying binary files, but you can explicitly specify which files are binary. Create a .gitattributes file in the project root containing: *.png binary binary is a built-in macro attribute equivalent to -diff -merge -text.

Generally, sets are a type of collection which stores unique values. Uniqueness is determined by the equals() and hashCode() methods. Sorting is determined by the type of set. HashSet - Random Sorting Java SE 7 Set<String> set = new HashSet<> (); set.add("Banana"); set.ad...

Description When working with a team who uses different operating systems (OS) across the project, sometimes you may run into trouble when dealing with line endings. Microsoft Windows When working on Microsoft Windows operating system (OS), the line endings are normally of form - carriage return ...

Each time WordPress loads the page, it will run main loop. The loop is the way to iterate over all elements related to the page you are currently on. Main loop will work on a global WP_Query object. The query has a globalized method have_posts(), that allows us to loop through all results. Finally...

You can also use loop with curly brackets like this: if ( have_posts() ) { while ( have_posts() ) { the_post(); var_dump( $post ); } }

If you want to handle such scenario just add an if/else statement. if ( have_posts() ) : while ( have_posts() ) : the_post(); var_dump( $post ); endwhile; else : __('This Query does not have any results'); endif;

An identifier has block scope if its corresponding declaration appears inside a block (parameter declaration in function definition apply). The scope ends at the end of the corresponding block. No different entities with the same identifier can have the same scope, but scopes may overlap. In case o...

#include <stdio.h> /* The parameter name, apple, has function prototype scope. These names are not significant outside the prototype itself. This is demonstrated below. */ int test_function(int apple); int main(void) { int orange = 5; orange = test_function(oran...

#include <stdio.h> /* The identifier, foo, is declared outside all blocks. It can be used anywhere after the declaration until the end of the translation unit. */ static int foo; void test_function(void) { foo += 2; } int main(void) { foo = 1; test_functi...

The jQuery API may be extended by adding to its prototype. For example, the existing API already has many functions available such as .hide(), .fadeIn(), .hasClass(), etc. The jQuery prototype is exposed through $.fn, the source code contains the line jQuery.fn = jQuery.prototype Adding functio...
