Dereferencing happens with the . operator: Object obj = new Object(); String text = obj.toString(); // 'obj' is dereferenced. Dereferencing follows the memory address stored in a reference, to the place in memory where the actual object resides. When an object has been found, the requested meth...

To POST a JSON body, pass in a Python data structure to the json argument; here a dictionary is posted but anything that can be encoded to JSON will do: import requests # Create a dictionary to be sent. json_data = {'foo': ['bar', 'baz'], 'spam': True, 'eggs': 5.5} # Send the data. response...

When a response contains valid JSON, just use the .json() method on the Response object to get the decoded result: response = requests.get('http://example.com/') decoded_result = response.json() However, this does not fail gracefully; it will raise a JSONDecodeError if the response object is no...

Like many Java objects, all String instances are created on the heap, even literals. When the JVM finds a String literal that has no equivalent reference in the heap, the JVM creates a corresponding String instance on the heap and it also stores a reference to the newly created String instance in th...

With Clipping and Masking you can make some specified parts of elements transparent or opaque. Both can be applied to any HTML element. Clipping Clips are vector paths.
