Standard Allocation The C dynamic memory allocation functions are defined in the <stdlib.h> header. If one wishes to allocate memory space for an object dynamically, the following code can be used: int *p = malloc(10 * sizeof *p); if (p == NULL) { perror("malloc() failed");...

The virtualenvwrapper utility simplifies working with virtual environments and is especially useful if you are dealing with many virtual environments/projects. Instead of having to deal with the virtual environment directories yourself, virtualenvwrapper manages them for you, by storing all virtual...

type person = {Name: string; Age: int} with // Defines person record member this.print() = printfn "%s, %i" this.Name this.Age let user = {Name = "John Doe"; Age = 27} // creates a new person user.print() // John Doe, 27

MKLocalSearch allows users to search for location using natural language strings like "gym". Once the search get completed, the class returns a list of locations within a specified region that match the search string. Search results are in form of MKMapItem within MKLocalSearchResponse ob...

The module cmath includes additional functions to use complex numbers. import cmath This module can calculate the phase of a complex number, in radians: z = 2+3j # A complex number cmath.phase(z) # 0.982793723247329 It allows the conversion between the cartesian (rectangular) and polar repr...

Python has built-in support for complex arithmetic. The imaginary unit is denoted by j: z = 2+3j # A complex number w = 1-7j # Another complex number Complex numbers can be summed, subtracted, multiplied, divided and exponentiated: z + w # (3-4j) z - w # (1+10j) z * w # (23-11j) z / w # (...

The where statement may be used within a switch case match to add additional criteria required for a positive match. The following example checks not only for the range, but also if the number is odd or even: switch (temperature) { case 0...49 where temperature % 2 == 0: print(&quot...

The clone() method is used to create and return a copy of an object. This method arguable should be avoided as it is problematic and a copy constructor or some other approach for copying should be used in favour of clone(). For the method to be used all classes calling the method must implement the...

R is able to access the current date, time and time zone: Sys.Date() # Returns date as a Date object ## [1] "2016-07-21" Sys.time() # Returns date & time at current locale as a POSIXct object ## [1] "2016-07-21 10:04:39 CDT" as.numeric(Sys...

# test date-time object options(digits.secs = 3) d = as.POSIXct("2016-08-30 14:18:30.58", tz = "UTC") format(d,"%S") # 00-61 Second as integer ## [1] "30" format(d,"%OS") # 00-60.99… Second as fractional ## [1] "30.579" for...

The functions for parsing a string into POSIXct and POSIXlt take similar parameters and return a similar-looking result, but there are differences in how that date-time is stored; see "Remarks." as.POSIXct("11:38", # time string format = "...

Fixed precision and scale decimal numbers. DECIMAL and NUMERIC are functionally equivalent. Syntax: DECIMAL ( precision [ , scale] ) NUMERIC ( precision [ , scale] ) Examples: SELECT CAST(123 AS DECIMAL(5,2)) --returns 123.00 SELECT CAST(12345.12 AS NUMERIC(10,5)) --returns 12345.12000

In Python 3, many of the dictionary methods are quite different in behaviour from Python 2, and many were removed as well: has_key, iter* and view* are gone. Instead of d.has_key(key), which had been long deprecated, one must now use key in d. In Python 2, dictionary methods keys, values and items ...

The -Regex parameter allows switch statements to perform regular expression matching against conditions. Example: switch -Regex ('Condition') { 'Con\D+ion' {'One or more non-digits'} 'Conditio*$' {'Zero or more "o"'} 'C.ndition' {'Any single char.'} '^C\w+ition$'...

The -Wildcard parameter allows switch statements to perform wildcard matching against conditions. Example: switch -Wildcard ('Condition') { 'Condition' {'Normal match'} 'Condit*' {'Zero or more wildcard chars.'} 'C[aoc]ndit[f-l]on' {'Range and set of chars...

The -Exact parameter enforces switch statements to perform exact, case-insensitive matching against string-conditions. Example: switch -Exact ('Condition') { 'condition' {'First Action'} 'Condition' {'Second Action'} 'conditioN' {'Third Action'} '^*ondition$' {'Fourth Action...
