This query gets all overlapping appointments from six to ten. Appointment.objects.filter(time_span__overlap=(6, 10))

To generate a list (tree view) of currently installed packages, use npm list ls, la and ll are aliases of list command. la and ll commands shows extended information like description and repository. Options The response format can be changed by passing options. npm list --json json - Sh...

When using a VCS such as Git or SVN, there are some secret data that must never be versioned (whether the repository is public or private). Among those data, you find the SECRET_KEY setting and the database password. A common practice to hide these settings from version control is to create a file...

The try { ... } catch ( ... ) { ... } control structure is used for handling Exceptions. String age_input = "abc"; try { int age = Integer.parseInt(age_input); if (age >= 18) { System.out.println("You can vote!"); } else { System.out.println(...

Specific to Windows System and android Phone: Requirements: USB Cable Android Device Android Driver Software Basically after connecting USB cable PC detects the Android Device and it will automatically search for the required Drivers for that Android Device. If that drivers are not found th...

Removing duplicate values in a list can be done by converting the list to a set (that is an unordered collection of distinct objects). If a list data structure is needed, then the set can be converted back to a list using the function list(): names = ["aixk", "duke", "edik&...

A closure is the PHP equivalent of an anonymous function, eg. a function that does not have a name. Even if that is technically not correct, the behavior of a closure remains the same as a function's, with a few extra features. A closure is nothing but an object of the Closure class which is create...

It is possible, inside a closure, to use an external variable with the special keyword use. For instance: <?php $quantity = 1; $calculator = function($number) use($quantity) { return $number + $quantity; }; var_dump($calculator(2)); // Shows "3" You can go further by ...

As seen previously, a closure is nothing but an instance of the Closure class, and different methods can be invoked on them. One of them is bindTo, which, given a closure, will return a new one that is bound to a given object. For example: <?php $myClosure = function() { echo $this->p...

Let's consider this example: <?php $myClosure = function() { echo $this->property; }; class MyClass { public $property; public function __construct($propertyValue) { $this->property = $propertyValue; } } $myInstance = new MyClass('Hello world...

Since PHP7, it is possible to bind a closure just for one call, thanks to the call method. For instance: <?php class MyClass { private $property; public function __construct($propertyValue) { $this->property = $propertyValue; } } $myClosure = function() ...

In general, an observer is a class with a specific method being called when an action on the observed object occurs. In certain situations, closures can be enough to implement the observer design pattern. Here is a detailed example of such an implementation. Let's first declare a class whose purpos...

We define two sets a and b >>> a = {1, 2, 2, 3, 4} >>> b = {3, 3, 4, 4, 5} NOTE: {1} creates a set of one element, but {} creates an empty dict. The correct way to create an empty set is set(). Intersection a.intersection(b) returns a new set with elements present in bot...

Even though Python natively supports big integers, taking the nth root of very large numbers can fail in Python. x = 2 ** 100 cube = x ** 3 root = cube ** (1.0 / 3) OverflowError: long int too large to convert to float When dealing with such large integers, you will need to use a custom f...

A blob contains arbitrary binary file contents. Commonly, it will be raw text such as source code or a blog article. But it could just as easily be the bytes of a PNG file or anything else. If you have the hash of a blob, you can look at it's contents. $ git cat-file -p d429810 package com.exampl...

The non-block do construct looks like integer i do 100, i=1, 5 100 print *, i That is, where the labelled termination statement is not a continue statement. There are various restrictions on the statement that can be used as the termination statement and the whole thing is generally v...

MySQL's DELETE statement can use the JOIN construct, allowing also to specify which tables to delete from. This is useful to avoid nested queries. Given the schema: create table people ( id int primary key, name varchar(100) not null, gender char(1) not null ); insert people (id,na...

The reduce function can be used to sum the elements in a list. (reduce '+ '(1 2 3 4)) ;;=> 10 By default, reduce performs a left-associative reduction, meaning that the sum 10 is computed as (+ (+ (+ 1 2) 3) 4) The first two elements are summed first, and then that result (3) is added to...

Common Lisp already has a reverse function, but if it didn't, then it could be implemented easily using reduce. Given a list like (1 2 3) === (cons 1 (cons 2 (cons 3 '()))) the reversed list is (cons 3 (cons 2 (cons 1 '()))) === (3 2 1) That may not be an obvious use of reduce, but if we ha...
