The effect of using the * operator on an argument when calling a function is that of unpacking the list or a tuple argument def print_args(arg1, arg2): print(str(arg1) + str(arg2)) a = [1,2] b = tuple([3,4]) print_args(*a) # 12 print_args(*b) # 34 Note that the length of the starr...

Seaborn is a wrapper around Matplotlib that makes creating common statistical plots easy. The list of supported plots includes univariate and bivariate distribution plots, regression plots, and a number of methods for plotting categorical variables. The full list of plots Seaborn provides is in thei...

CSS ul { list-style: none; counter-reset: list-item-number; /* self nesting counter as name is same for all levels */ } li { counter-increment: list-item-number; } li:before { content: counters(list-item-number, ".") " "; /* usage of counters() function means val...

In many other languages, if you run the following (Java example) if("asgdsrf" == 0) { //do stuff } ... you'll get an error. You can't just go comparing strings to integers like that. In Python, this is a perfectly legal statement - it'll just resolve to False. A common gotcha ...

In the example of a message bubble illustrated below: the corners of the image should remain unchanged which is specified by UIEdgeInsets, but the borders and center of the image should expand to cover the new size. let insets = UIEdgeInsetsMake(12.0, 20.0, 22.0, 12.0) let image = UIImage(na...

<div tabindex="0">Some button</div> Note: Try to use a native HTML button or an a tag where appropriate.

<button tabindex="-1">This button will not be reachable by tab</button> The element will be removed from the tabbing order but will still be focusable.

<div tabindex="2">Second</div> <div tabindex="1">First</div> Positive values will insert the element at the tabbing order position of its respective value. Elements without preference (i.e. tabindex="0" or native elements such as button and a...

Build constraints are commonly used to separate normal unit tests from integration tests that require external resources, like a database or network access. To do this, add a custom build constraint to the top of the test file: // +build integration package main import ( "testing&...

We can optimize a simple xor function for only architectures that support unaligned reads/writes by creating two files that define the function and prefixing them with a build constraint (for an actual example of the xor code which is out of scope here, see crypto/cipher/xor.go in the standard libra...

Get the Source Package from http://typo3.org/download/ and upload this package to your web server. Put it one level above the document root. For this manual, we will use the .tar.gz file. Use the shell to execute the according commands: /var/www/site/htdocs/$ cd .. /var/www/site/$ wget get.typo3....

go() method The go() method loads a specific URL from the history list. The parameter can either be a number which goes to the URL within the specific position (-1 goes back one page, 1 goes forward one page), or a string. The string must be a partial or full URL, and the function will go to the f...

The spacing should be even and uniform throughout. Improper indentation can cause an IndentationError or cause the program to do something unexpected. The following example raises an IndentationError: a = 7 if a > 5: print "foo" else: print "bar" print "done&qu...

This basic code will launch a "Hello world" GUI window using PyQt4: import sys from PyQt4 import QtGui # create instance of QApplication app = QtGui.QApplication(sys.argv) # create QLabel, without parent it will be shown as window label = QtGui.QLabel('Hello world!') label.show(...

hashlib.new requires the name of an algorithm when you call it to produce a generator. To find out what algorithms are available in the current Python interpreter, use hashlib.algorithms_available: import hashlib hashlib.algorithms_available # ==> {'sha256', 'DSA-SHA', 'SHA512', 'SHA224', 'dsa...

The PBKDF2 algorithm exposed by hashlib module can be used to perform secure password hashing. While this algorithm cannot prevent brute-force attacks in order to recover the original password from the stored hash, it makes such attacks very expensive. import hashlib import os salt = os.urandom...

This method looks for the existence of browser specific things. This would be more difficult to spoof, but is not guaranteed to be future proof. // Opera 8.0+ var isOpera = (!!window.opr && !!opr.addons) || !!window.opera || navigator.userAgent.indexOf(' OPR/') >= 0; // Firefox 1.0+ ...

An easier approach for some would be to use an existing JavaScript library. This is because it can be tricky to guarantee browser detection is correct, so it can make sense to use a working solution if one is available. One popular browser-detection library is Bowser. Usage example: if (bowser.ms...

This method gets the user agent and parses it to find the browser. The browser name and version are extracted from the user agent through a regex. Based on these two, the <browser name> <version> is returned. The four conditional blocks following the user agent matching code are meant t...
