The delete operator deletes a property from an object. Syntax: delete object.property delete object['property'] Returns: If deletion is successful, or the property did not exist: true If the property to be deleted is an own non-configurable property (can't be deleted): false in non...

When Oracle implicitly converts from a DATE to a string or vice-versa (or when TO_CHAR() or TO_DATE() are explicitly called without a format model) the NLS_DATE_FORMAT session parameter will be used as the format model in the conversion. If the literal does not match the format model then an excepti...

set(my_global_string "a string value" CACHE STRING "a description about the string variable") set(my_global_bool TRUE CACHE BOOL "a description on the boolean cache entry") In case a cached variable is already defined in the cache when CMake processes the ...

var a:Object; trace(a); // null trace(a.b); // Error 1009 Here, an object reference is declared, but is never assigned a value, be it with new or assignment of a non-null value. Requesting its properties or method results in a 1009 error.

x=anObject.aProperty.anotherProperty.getSomething().data; Here, any object before the dot can end up being null, and using methods that return complex objects only increases the complication to debug the null error. Worst case if the method is prone to extraneous failures, say retrieving data ove...

s=this.getChildByName("garbage"); if (s.parent==this) {...} getChildByName() is one of the many functions that can return null if an error occurred when processing its input. Therefore, if you are receiving an object from any function that can possibly return null, check for null first...

Get the list of inialized indexes in an array $ arr[2]='second' $ arr[10]='tenth' $ arr[25]='twenty five' $ echo ${!arr[@]} 2 10 25

If you have your data stored in a list and you want to convert this list to a data frame the do.call function is an easy way to achieve this. However, it is important that all list elements have the same length in order to prevent unintended recycling of values. dataList <- list(1:3,4:6,7:9) ...

Similar to the built-in function zip(), itertools.zip_longest will continue iterating beyond the end of the shorter of two iterables. from itertools import zip_longest a = [i for i in range(5)] # Length is 5 b = ['a', 'b', 'c', 'd', 'e', 'f', 'g'] # Length is 7 for i in zip_longest(a, b): x...

You can redirect the debug output to a text file by adding a TextWriterTraceListener to the Debug.Listeners collection. public static void Main(string[] args) { TextWriterTraceListener myWriter = new TextWriterTraceListener(@"debug.txt"); Debug.Listeners.Add(myWriter); Deb...

You can rollback and then migrate again using the redo command. This is basically a shortcut that combines rollback and migrate tasks. Run command: 5.0 rake db:migrate:redo 5.0 rails db:migrate:redo You can use the STEP parameter to go back more than one version. For example, to go ba...

It is possible to limit the tests executed by manage.py test by specifying which modules should be discovered by the test runner: # Run only tests for the app names "app1" $ python manage.py test app1 # If you split the tests file into a module with several tests files for an app $ p...

Dim extensions As New Dictionary(Of String, String) _ from { { "txt", "notepad" }, { "bmp", "paint" }, { "doc", "winword" } } This creates a dictionary and immediately fills it with three KeyValuePairs. You can also add new val...

Comparable types are primitive types that can be compared using comparison operators from Basics module, like: (<), (>), (<=), (>=), max, min, compare Comparable types in Elm are Int, Float, Time, Char, String, and tuples or lists of comparable types. In documentation or type definitio...

For named (non-anonymous) functions, you can break when the function is executed. debug(functionName); The next time functionName function runs, the debugger will stop on its first line.

Enumerating dictionaries allows you to run a block of code on each dictionary key-value pair using the method enumerateKeysAndObjectsUsingBlock:(void (^)(id key, id obj, BOOL *stop))block Example: NSDictionary stockSymbolsDictionary = @{ @"AAPL":...
