Introduction The GNU Make (styled make) is a program dedicated to the automation of executing shell commands. GNU Make is one specific program that falls under the Make family. Make remains popular among Unix-like and POSIX-like operating systems, including those derived from the Linux kernel, Mac ...

Some API calls return a single failure/success flag, without any additional information (e.g. GetObject): if ( GetObjectW( obj, 0, NULL ) == 0 ) { // Failure: no additional information available. }

In addition to a failure/success return value, some API calls also set the last error on failure (e.g. CreateWindow). The documentation usually contains the following standard wording for this case: If the function succeeds, the return value is <API-specific success value>. If the function...

Some API calls can succeed or fail in more than one way. The APIs commonly return additional information for both successful invocations as well as errors (e.g. CreateMutex). if ( CreateMutexW( NULL, TRUE, L"Global\\MyNamedMutex" ) == NULL ) { // Failure: get additional information. ...

HRESULTs are numeric 32-bit values, where bits or bit ranges encode well-defined information. The MSB is a failure/success flag, with the remaining bits storing additional information. Failure or success can be determined using the FAILED or SUCCEEDED macros. HRESULTs are commonly used with COM, but...

When implementing SFINAE using std::enable_if, it is often useful to have access to helper templates that determines if a given type T matches a set of criteria. To help us with that, the standard already provides two types analog to true and false which are std::true_type and std::false_type. The...

Add the following code (known as the "JavaScript tracking snippet") to your site's templates. The code should be added before the closing tag, and the string 'UA-XXXXX-Y' should be replaced with the property ID (also called the "tracking ID") of the Google Analytics property yo...

The . operator in Rust comes with a lot of magic! When you use ., the compiler will insert as many *s (dereferencing operations) necessary to find the method down the deref "tree". As this happens at compile time, there is no runtime cost of finding the method. let mut name: String = &quo...

In Drupal 7 and lower, your configuration is probably stored using the Features module. To update a feature with changes from the databases use this command: drush features-update [feature-name] // e.g. drush features-update content_type_news You can also use this shorthand: drush fu [feature-n...

A HTTP 500 Internal Server Error is a general message meaning that the server encountered something unexpected. Applications (or the overarching web server) should use a 500 when there's an error processing the request - i.e. an exception is thrown, or a condition of the resource prevents the proces...

Use 403 Forbidden when a client has requested a resource that is inaccessible due to existing access controls. For example, if your app has an /admin route that should only be accessible to users with administrative rights, you can use 403 when a normal user requests the page. GET /admin HTTP/1.1 ...

Iterable can be anything for which items are received one by one, forward only. Built-in Python collections are iterable: [1, 2, 3] # list, iterate over items (1, 2, 3) # tuple {1, 2, 3} # set {1: 2, 3: 4} # dict, iterate over keys Generators return iterables: def foo(): # foo ...

s = {1, 2, 3} # get every element in s for a in s: print a # prints 1, then 2, then 3 # copy into list l1 = list(s) # l1 = [1, 2, 3] # use list comprehension l2 = [a * 2 for a in s if a > 2] # l2 = [6]

Use unpacking to extract the first element and ensure it's the only one: a, = iterable def foo(): yield 1 a, = foo() # a = 1 nums = [1, 2, 3] a, = nums # ValueError: too many values to unpack

Start with iter() built-in to get iterator over iterable and use next() to get elements one by one until StopIteration is raised signifying the end: s = {1, 2} # or list or generator or even iterator i = iter(s) # get iterator a = next(i) # a = 1 b = next(i) # b = 2 c = next(i) # raises S...
