Function composition allows for two functions to operate and be viewed as a single function. Expressed in mathematical terms, given a function f(x) and a function g(x), the function h(x) = f(g(x)). When a function is compiled, it is compiled to a type related to Function1. Scala provides two method...

Probably the two most popular free implementations of Common Lisp are Clozure Common Lisp (CCL) and Steel Bank Common Lisp (SBCL). They are both available for a variety of platforms including Linux on x86-64 and Linux on ARM. CCL: http://ccl.clozure.com/download.html SBCL: http://www.sbcl.org/gett...

Constraint created as NSLayoutConstraint(item: myView, attribute: NSLayoutAttribute.Leading, relatedBy: NSLayoutRelation.Equal, toItem: view, attribute: NSLayoutAttribute.LeadingMargin, multiplier: 1.0, constant: 20.0) or, from math point of view: view.attribute * multiplier + constant ...

Anonymous functions can be used for functional programming. The main problem to solve is that there is no native way for anchoring a recursion, but this can still be implemented in a single line: if_ = @(bool, tf) tf{2-bool}(); This function accepts a boolean value and a cell array of two functi...

There are two PyCharm editions: Community and Professional. Both are downloadable from JetBrains website. Additionally, there is another edition, PyCharm Edu. JetBrains recommend this edition, if you are learning or teaching Programming with Python. The supported platforms are Windows, Linux and m...

A common thought pattern for inexperienced Java programmers is that exceptions are "a problem" or "a burden" and the best way to deal with this is catch them all1 as soon as possible. This leads to code like this: .... try { InputStream is = new FileInputStream(fileName);...

You can also add/remove listener imperatively using listen and unlisten method of Polymer <dom-module id="imparative-listener"> <template> <style> #inner{ width: 200px; height: 50px; border: 1px solid ...

It is possible to retarget an event in Polymer ie you can change event details like path thus hiding the actual details of an event/element from user. For e.g if a div inside event-retargeting element is firing the event but developer does not want the user to know that he can retarget the event to...

To search for text foo within a {} block surrounding the cursor use the following command (<ESC> - escape key, <CR> - enter key) : vi{<ESC>/\%Vfoo<CR> now you can jump between the matches within the block by pressing n and p. If you have hlsearch option enabled this will ...

Detailed instructions on getting datepicker set up or installed.

A function is similar in look to a mixin but it doesn't add any styles, it only returns a value. Functions should be used to prevent repeated logic in your styles. Sass has some built-in functions that are called using the standard CSS function syntax. h1 { background: hsl(0, 25%, 50%); } ...

To create a redistributable package (e.g. a ZIP archive or setup program), it's usually enough to simply invoke CPack using a syntax very similar to calling CMake: cpack path/to/build/directory Depending on the environment this will gather all required/installed files for the project and put the...

To create a package using a specific format, it is possible to pick the Generator to be used. Similar to CMake this may be done using the -G argument: cpack -G 7Z . Using this command line would package the built project in the current directory using the 7-Zip archive format. At the time of w...

You can define central config info's in a separate gradle include file Centralizing dependencies via "dependencies.gradle" file a stand alone properties file Versioning your builds via "version.properties" file or do it with root gradle.properties file the project structu...

Inline display elements, usually such as span or a, will include up to one white-space character before and after them in the document. In order to avoid very long lines in the markup (that are hard to read) and unintentional white-space (which affects formatting), the white-space can be commented o...

Obfuscation is often considered as a magic solution for code protection, by making your code harder to understand if it ever gets de-compiled by hackers. But if you're thinking that removing the Log.x(..) actually removes the information the hackers need, you'll have a nasty surprise. Removing al...

In some circumstances (for example obtaining a Google API key) you need to find your keystore fingerprint. Gradle has a convenient task that display all the signing information, including keystore fingerprints: ./gradlew signingReport This is a sample output: :app:signingReport Variant: releas...

X-Macros can be used for code generation, by writing repetitive code: iterate over a list to do some tasks, or to declare a set of constants, objects or functions. Here we use X-macros to declare an enum containing 4 commands and a map of their names as strings Then we can print the string values ...

Consider this example function to check if a host is up: is_alive() { ping -c1 "$1" &> /dev/null } This function sends a single ping to the host specified by the first function parameter. The output and error output of ping are both redirected to /dev/null, so the functi...
