Ordering the results and setting a limit can easily be achieved with 2 additional lines added to the chain, like so: $db = JFactory::getDbo(); $query = $db->getQuery(true); $query->select('*') ->from('#__users') ->where('username = '. $db->q('John')) ->ord...

Directives can be used to build reusable components. Here is an example of a "user box" component: userBox.js angular.module('simpleDirective', []).directive('userBox', function() { return { scope: { username: '=username', reputation: '=reputation' }, ...

The angular.noop is a function that performs no operations, you pass angular.noop when you need to provide a function argument that will do nothing. angular.noop() A common use for angular.noop can be to provide an empty callback to a function that will otherwise throw an error when something ...

The angular.isObject return true if and only if the argument passed to it is an object, this function will also return true for an Array and will return false for null even though typeof null is object . angular.isObject(value) This function is useful for type checking when you need a defined ...

The angular.isElement returns true if the argument passed to it is a DOM Element or a jQuery wrapped Element. angular.isElement(elem) This function is useful to type check if a passed argument is an element before being processed as such. Examples: angular.isElement(document.querySelector(&q...

Preliminary Install the Cordova cli tools, if you haven't already. $ npm install -g cordova Navigate to your desired working folder. $ cd /path/to/coding/folder Creating the application Create a new application $ cordova create <appProjectName> <appNameSpace> <appName> For ...

POSIX/IEEE Open Group Base Specification says: [2addr] s/BRE/replacement/flags Substitute the replacement string for instances of the BRE in the pattern space. Any character other than backslash or newline can be used instead of a slash to delimit the BRE and the replacement. Within the BRE a...

Create a group of checkboxes that can be used to toggle multiple choices independently. The server will receive the input as a character vector of the selected values. library(shiny) ui <- fluidPage( checkboxGroupInput("checkGroup1", label = h3("This is a Checkbox group&...

Encapsulation is a basic concept in OOP. It is about wrapping data and code as a single unit. In this case, it is a good practice to declare the variables as private and then access them through Getters and Setters to view and/or modify them. public class Sample { private String name; privat...

In order to ssh into a server your identity's public key has to be added to the list of trusted keys. Most commonly this is done per-user: ssh-copy-id -i ~/.ssh/<identity>.pub <user>@<hostname> Which can be also done manually: cat ~/.ssh/<identity>.pub | ssh <user>...

Coming from imperative languages many developers wonder how to write a for-loop that exits early as F# doesn't support break, continue or return. The answer in F# is to use tail-recursion which is a flexible and idiomatic way to iterate while still providing excellent performance. Say we want to ...

Many people don't make use of file.path when making path to a file. But if you are working across Windows, Mac and Linux machines it's usually good practice to use it for making paths instead of paste. FilePath <- file.path(AVariableWithFullProjectPath,"SomeSubfolder","SomeFileNam...

The following function is returning another function as its result which can be later assigned to a variable and called: func jediTrainer () -> ((String, Int) -> String) { func train(name: String, times: Int) -> (String) { return "\(name) has been trained in the Force \(times)...

Often in R you'll want to know things about an object or variable you're working with. This can be useful when reading someone else's code or even your own, especially when using packages that are new to you. Suppose we create a variable a: a <- matrix(1:9, 3, 3) What data type is this? Yo...

Often data comes in tables. Generally one can divide this tabular data in wide and long formats. In a wide format, each variable has its own column. PersonHeight [cm]Age [yr]Alison17820Bob17445Carl18231 However, sometimes it is more convenient to have a long format, in which all variables are in o...

In this exercise, we will generate four bootstrap linear regression models and combine the summaries of these models into a single data frame. library(broom) #* Create the bootstrap data sets BootData <- lapply(1:4, function(i) mtcars[sample(1:nrow(mtcars), ...

The degree of parallelism is the maximum number of concurrently executing tasks that will be used to process the query. var sequence = Enumerable.Range(1, 10000); var evenNumbers = sequence.AsParallel() .WithDegreeOfParallelism(4) .Where(x =&gt...

a, b = 1, 2 import math math.sin(a) # returns the sine of 'a' in radians # Out: 0.8414709848078965 math.cosh(b) # returns the inverse hyperbolic cosine of 'b' in radians # Out: 3.7621956910836314 math.atan(math.pi) # returns the arc tangent of 'pi' in radians # Out: 1.2626272556789...

A typical use case for SpriteKit is where the SKView fills the whole screen. To do this in Xcode's Interface Builder, first create a normal ViewController, then select the contained view and change its Class from UIView to SKView: Within the code for the View Controller, in the viewDidLoad metho...

One might argue that there are greater resource hogs in Unity than the humble string, but it is one of the easier aspects to fix early on. String operations build garbage Most string operations build tiny amounts of garbage, but if those operations are called several times over the course of a s...
