You can subclass SKSpriteNode and define your own type of sprite. class Hero: SKSpriteNode { //Use a convenience init when you want to hard code values convenience init() { let texture = SKTexture(imageNamed: "Hero") self.init(texture: texture, color: .clearCol...

In contrast to segue that lets you pass data "forward" from current view controller to destination view controller: (VC1) -> (VC2) Using "unwind" you can do the opposite, pass data from the destination or current view controller to its presenting view controller: (VC1) <...

There are cases, where custom objects need to be created and defined in the resources of the application. Such objects can be composed of Java simple types, for example Integer, Float, String. Here is the example of how to import an object defined in application resources. The object Category cons...

Let's say you have a User model class User < ActiveRecord::Base end Now to update the first_name and last_name of a user with id = 1, you can write the following code. user = User.find(1) user.update(first_name: 'Kashif', last_name: 'Liaqat') Calling update will attempt to update the gi...

RoboGuice is a framework that brings the simplicity and ease of Dependency Injection to Android, using Google's own Guice library. RoboGuice 3 slims down your application code. Less code means fewer opportunities for bugs. It also makes your code easier to follow -- no longer is your code littered ...

It's possible to break / continue to an outer loop by using label statements: outerloop: for(...) { innerloop: for(...) { if(condition1) break outerloop; if(condition2) continue innerloop; // equivalent to: continue; } } There is no ...

The continue statement is used to skip the remaining steps in the current iteration and start with the next loop iteration. The control goes from the continue statement to the step value (increment or decrement), if any. String[] programmers = {"Adrian", "Paul", "John&quot...

Write to a file test.txt: String filepath ="C:\\test.txt"; FileOutputStream fos = null; try { fos = new FileOutputStream(filepath); byte[] buffer = "This will be written in test.txt".getBytes(); fos.write(buffer, 0, buffer.length); fos.close(); } c...

public static void Main(string[] args) { var studentList = new List<Student>(); studentList.Add(new Student("Scott", "Nuke")); studentList.Add(new Student("Vincent", "King")); studentList.Add(new Student("Craig", "Be...

User is an ActiveRecord or Mongoid class. Replace User with any Rails class in your project (even something like Integer or Array) my_string = "User" # Capitalized string # => 'User' my_constant = my_string.safe_constantize # => User my_constant.all.count # => 18 my...

This example will not work because the string passed in isn't recognized as a constant in the project. Even if you pass in "array", it won't work as it isn't capitalized. my_string = "not_a_constant" # => 'not_a_constant' my_string.safe_constantize # => nil my_s...

If you are given a JSON string : val str = """{ | "name" : "Jsony McJsonface", | "age" : 18, | "hobbies" : [ "Fishing", "Hunting", "Camping" ], | "pet" : { | ...

The ng-required adds or removes the required validation attribute on an element, which in turn will enable and disable the require validation key for the input. It is used to optionally define if an input element is required to have a non-empty value. The directive is helpful when designing validat...

// Example of std::vector as an expanding dynamic size array. #include <algorithm> // std::sort #include <iostream> #include <vector> // std::vector using namespace std; int int_from( std::istream& in ) { int x = 0; in >> x; return x; } ...

Unfortunately as of C++14 there's no dynamic size matrix class in the C++ standard library. Matrix classes that support dynamic size are however available from a number of 3rd party libraries, including the Boost Matrix library (a sub-library within the Boost library). If you don't want a dependenc...

To create a new Rails 5 API, open a terminal and run the following command: rails new app_name --api The following file structure will be created: create create README.rdoc create Rakefile create config.ru create .gitignore create Gemfile create app create app/as...

RVM is a great tool to manage your ruby versions and set up your working environment. Assuming you already have RVM installed, to get the latest version of ruby, which is needed for these examples, open a terminal and run: $ rvm get stable $ rvm install ruby --latest Check your ruby version by...

A typical singleton class : import javax.inject._ @Singleton class BurgersRepository { // implementation goes here } Another class, requiring access to the first one. import javax.inject._ class FastFoodService @Inject() (burgersRepository: BurgersRepository){ // implementation ...

Basic usage of dependency injection is done by the annotations. When you need to tweak things a little bit, you need custom code to further specify how you want some classes to be instantiated and injected. This code goes in what is called a Module. import com.google.inject.AbstractModule // Pla...

Once the number of abilities definitions start to grow in number, it becomes more and more difficult to handle the Ability file. The first strategy to handle these issue is to move abilities into meaningful methods, as per this example: class Ability include CanCan::Ability def initialize(...
