3.0 To run tasks on a dispatch queue, use the sync, async, and after methods. To dispatch a task to a queue asynchronously: let queue = DispatchQueue(label: "myQueueName") queue.async { //do something DispatchQueue.main.async { //this will be called in main t...

In this example we aim to accomplish one of the most common tasks: I have a small DC motor laying around, how do I use my Arduino to control it? Easy, with PWM and serial communication, using the function analogWrite() and the Serial library. The basics Pulse Width Modulation or PWM for short is a...

Delegates can be used as typed function pointers: class FuncAsParameters { public void Run() { DoSomething(ErrorHandler1); DoSomething(ErrorHandler2); } public bool ErrorHandler1(string message) { Console.WriteLine(message); var shouldWeContinue = ... re...

The Singleton pattern is a design pattern that restricts the instantiation of a class to one object. After the first object is created, it will return the reference to the same one whenever called for an object. var Singleton = (function () { // instance stores a reference to the Singlet...

The base package parallel allows parallel computation through forking, sockets, and random-number generation. Detect the number of cores present on the localhost: parallel::detectCores(all.tests = FALSE, logical = TRUE) Create a cluster of the cores on the localhost: parallelCluster <- para...

When validating that an integer falls in a range the check includes the minimum and maximum bounds: $options = array( 'options' => array( 'min_range' => 5, 'max_range' => 10, ) ); var_dump(filter_var('5', FILTER_VALIDATE_INT, $options)); var_dump(filter_var('...

Our randomNumbers() function can be re-written to use a generator. <?php function randomNumbers(int $length) { for ($i = 0; $i < $length; $i++) { // yield tells the PHP interpreter that this value // should be the one used in the current iteration. yield mt...

Checks to see if the passed Item is in Editing mode. If not, it throws an EditingNotAllowedException. Assert.IsEditing(Sitecore.Context.Item);

Twilio's Node.JS API natively supports promises, allowing you to use promises when sending SMS messages (this example was taken and adapted directly from Twilio's API Docs). // Create an authenticated Twilio REST API client var twilio = require('twilio'); var client = new twilio.RestClient('ACCOU...

The browser function can be used like a breakpoint: code execution will pause at the point it is called. Then user can then inspect variable values, execute arbitrary R code and step through the code line by line. Once browser() is hit in the code the interactive interpreter will start. Any R code ...

The FlagsAttribute should be used whenever the enumerable represents a collection of flags, rather than a single value. The numeric value assigned to each enum value helps when manipulating enums using bitwise operators. Example 1 : With [Flags] [Flags] enum Colors { Red=1, Blue=2, ...

Horizontally vim -o file1.txt file2.txt Vertically vim -O file1.txt file2.txt You may optionally specify the number of splits to open. The following example opens two horizontal splits and loads file3.txt in a buffer: vim -o2 file1.txt file2.txt file3.txt

Summary This goal is to reorganize all of your scattered commits into more meaningful commits for easier code reviews. If there are too many layers of changes across too many files at once, it is harder to do a code review. If you can reorganize your chronologically created commits into topical com...

If your code encounters a condition it doesn't know how to handle, such as an incorrect parameter, it should raise the appropriate exception. def even_the_odds(odds): if odds % 2 != 1: raise ValueError("Did not get an odd number") return odds + 1

Sometimes you want to catch an exception just to inspect it, e.g. for logging purposes. After the inspection, you want the exception to continue propagating as it did before. In this case, simply use the raise statement with no parameters. try: 5 / 0 except ZeroDivisionError: print(&quo...

While reading content from a file is already asynchronous using the fs.readFile() method, sometimes we want to get the data in a Stream versus in a simple callback. This allows us to pipe this data to other locations or to process it as it comes in versus all at once at the end. const fs = require(...

Inspecting system resource usage is an efficient way to narrow down a problem on a live running application. This example is an equivalent of the traditional ps command for containers. docker top 7786807d8084 To filter of format the output, add ps options on the command line: docker top 7786807...

By default, all types in TypeScript allow null: function getId(x: Element) { return x.id; } getId(null); // TypeScript does not complain, but this is a runtime error. TypeScript 2.0 adds support for strict null checks. If you set --strictNullChecks when running tsc (or set this flag in you...

val num = 42d Print two decimal places for num using f println(f"$num%2.2f") 42.00 Print num using scientific notation using e println(f"$num%e") 4.200000e+01 Print num in hexadecimal with a println(f"$num%a") 0x1.5p5 Other format strings can be found ...
