To share files or to host simple websites(http and javascript) in your local network, you can use Python's builtin SimpleHTTPServer module. Python should be in your Path variable. Go to the folder where your files are and type: For python 2: $ python -m SimpleHTTPServer <portnumber> For p...

Suppose we want to write a factory function that accepts an arbitrary list of arguments and passes those arguments unmodified to another function. An example of such a function is make_unique, which is used to safely construct a new instance of T and return a unique_ptr<T> that owns the instan...

Defining a member block inside a resource creates a route that can act on an individual member of that resource-based route: resources :posts do member do get 'preview' end end This generates the following member route: get '/posts/:id/preview', to: 'posts#preview' # preview_post_p...

If you are building a function that may be heavy on the processor (either clientside or serverside) you may want to consider a memoizer which is a cache of previous function executions and their returned values. This allows you to check if the parameters of a function were passed before. Remember, p...

The specifier override has a special meaning in C++11 onwards, if appended at the end of function signature. This signifies that a function is Overriding the function present in base class & The Base class function is virtual There is no run time significance of this specifier as is mainl...

With virtual member functions: #include <iostream> struct X { virtual void f() { std::cout << "X::f()\n"; } }; struct Y : X { // Specifying virtual again here is optional // because it can be inferred from X::f(). virtual void f() { std::cout <&lt...

SQLite is a C library that is typically compiled directly into the application by downloading the source code of the latest version, and adding the sqlite3.c file to the project. Many script languages (e.g., Perl, Python, Ruby, etc.) and frameworks (e.g., Android) have support for SQLite; this is d...

A syntactic extension that lets you write \case in place of \arg -> case arg of. Consider the following function definition: dayOfTheWeek :: Int -> String dayOfTheWeek 0 = "Sunday" dayOfTheWeek 1 = "Monday" dayOfTheWeek 2 = "Tuesday" dayOfTheWeek 3 = "W...

A typical use case for a filter is to remove values from an array. In this example we pass in an array and remove any nulls found in it, returning the array. function removeNulls() { return function(list) { for (var i = list.length - 1; i >= 0; i--) { if (typeof list[i...

Another use case for filters is to format a single value. In this example, we pass in a value and we are returned an appropriate true boolean value. function convertToBooleanValue() { return function(input) { if (typeof input !== 'undefined' && input !== null ...

:root { --red: #b00; --blue: #4679bd; --grey: #ddd; } .Bx1 { color: var(--red); background: var(--grey); border: 1px solid var(--red); }

:root { --W200: 200px; --W10: 10px; } .Bx2 { width: var(--W200); height: var(--W200); margin: var(--W10); }

Trailing spaces \s*$: This will match any (*) whitespace (\s) at the end ($) of the text Leading spaces ^\s*: This will match any (*) whitespace (\s) at the beginning (^) of the text Remarks \s is a common metacharacter for several RegExp engines, and is meant to capture whitespace characters (...

The <datalist> tag specifies a list of pre-defined options for an <input> element. It provide an "autocomplete" feature on <input> elements. Users will see a drop-down list of options as they write. <input list="Languages"> <datalist id="Langua...

In Python 2, <> is a synonym for !=; likewise, `foo` is a synonym for repr(foo). Python 2.x2.7 >>> 1 <> 2 True >>> 1 <> 1 False >>> foo = 'hello world' >>> repr(foo) "'hello world'" >>> `foo` "'hello world'"...

Suppose we have a list of teams, named like this: Team A, Team B, ..., Team Z. Then: Team [AB]: This will match either either Team A or Team B Team [^AB]: This will match any team except Team A or Team B We often need to match characters that "belong" together in some context or ano...

This example starts Notepad, waits for it to be closed, then gets its exit code. #include <Windows.h> int main() { STARTUPINFOW si = { 0 }; si.cb = sizeof(si); PROCESS_INFORMATION pi = { 0 }; // Create the child process BOOL success = CreateProcessW( L"C:...

Pass dynamic inventory to ansible-playbook: ansible-playbook -i inventory/dyn.py -l targethost my_playbook.yml python inventory/dyn.py should print out something like this: { "_meta": { "hostvars": { "10.1.0.10": { "ansible_user": ...
