Write to a file test.txt: String filepath ="C:\\test.txt"; FileOutputStream fos = null; try { fos = new FileOutputStream(filepath); byte[] buffer = "This will be written in test.txt".getBytes(); fos.write(buffer, 0, buffer.length); fos.close(); } c...

public static void Main(string[] args) { var studentList = new List<Student>(); studentList.Add(new Student("Scott", "Nuke")); studentList.Add(new Student("Vincent", "King")); studentList.Add(new Student("Craig", "Be...

User is an ActiveRecord or Mongoid class. Replace User with any Rails class in your project (even something like Integer or Array) my_string = "User" # Capitalized string # => 'User' my_constant = my_string.safe_constantize # => User my_constant.all.count # => 18 my...

This example will not work because the string passed in isn't recognized as a constant in the project. Even if you pass in "array", it won't work as it isn't capitalized. my_string = "not_a_constant" # => 'not_a_constant' my_string.safe_constantize # => nil my_s...

If you are given a JSON string : val str = """{ | "name" : "Jsony McJsonface", | "age" : 18, | "hobbies" : [ "Fishing", "Hunting", "Camping" ], | "pet" : { | ...

C-style bit-manipulation A bit can be cleared using the bitwise AND operator (&). // Bit x will be cleared number &= ~(1LL << x); Using std::bitset reset(x) or set(x,false) - clears the bit at position x. std::bitset<5> num(std::string("01100")); num.reset(2); ...

C-style bit-manipulation A bit can be toggled using the XOR operator (^). // Bit x will be the opposite value of what it is currently number ^= 1LL << x; Using std::bitset std::bitset<4> num(std::string("0100")); num.flip(2); // num is now 0000 num.flip(0); // num is n...

Self-referential association is used to associate a model with itself. The most frequent example would be, to manage association between a friend and his follower. ex. rails g model friendship user_id:references friend_id:integer now you can associate models like; class User < ActiveRecord:...

#include <stddef.h> // size_t, ptrdiff_t //----------------------------------- Machinery: using Size = ptrdiff_t; template< class Item, size_t n > constexpr auto n_items( Item (&)[n] ) noexcept -> Size { return n; } //----------------------------------- Us...

// Example of raw dynamic size array. It's generally better to use std::vector. #include <algorithm> // std::sort #include <iostream> using namespace std; auto int_from( istream& in ) -> int { int x; in >> x; return x; } auto main() -> int { ...

This is useful to see if there are any non-printable characters, or non-ASCII characters. e.g. If you have copy-pasted the code from web, you may have quotes like ” instead of standard ". $ cat -v file.txt $ cat -vE file.txt # Useful in detecting trailing spaces. e.g. $ echo '” ' | c...

Because in .NET 3.5 and older you don't have Lazy<T> class you use the following pattern: public class Singleton { private Singleton() // prevents public instantiation { } public static Singleton Instance { get { return Nested.instanc...

To create a new Rails 5 API, open a terminal and run the following command: rails new app_name --api The following file structure will be created: create create README.rdoc create Rakefile create config.ru create .gitignore create Gemfile create app create app/as...

RVM is a great tool to manage your ruby versions and set up your working environment. Assuming you already have RVM installed, to get the latest version of ruby, which is needed for these examples, open a terminal and run: $ rvm get stable $ rvm install ruby --latest Check your ruby version by...

All collection objects contain a map method that takes a Function as an argument, which must take a single argument. This returns an Iterable backed by the collection. When the Iterable is iterated, each step calls the function with a new element of the collection, and the result of the call becomes...

You will often need to access instances of classes from the framework itself (like the WSClient, or the Configuration). You can inject them in your own classes : class ComplexService @Inject()( configuration: Configuration, wsClient: WSClient, applicationLifecycle: ApplicationLifecycle, ...

Basic usage of dependency injection is done by the annotations. When you need to tweak things a little bit, you need custom code to further specify how you want some classes to be instantiated and injected. This code goes in what is called a Module. import com.google.inject.AbstractModule // Pla...

Abilities are defined in the Ability class using can and cannot methods. Consider the following commented example for basic reference: class Ability include CanCan::Ability def initialize(user) # for any visitor or user can :read, Article if user if user.admin? ...

Once the number of abilities definitions start to grow in number, it becomes more and more difficult to handle the Ability file. The first strategy to handle these issue is to move abilities into meaningful methods, as per this example: class Ability include CanCan::Ability def initialize(...

mount is used to mount another application (basically rack application) or rails engines to be used within the current application syntax: mount SomeRackApp, at: "some_route" Now you can access above mounted application using route helper some_rack_app_path or some_rack_app_url. But ...
