Output can be restricted by specifying line ranges as git blame -L <start>,<end> Where <start> and <end> can be: line number git blame -L 10,30 /regex/ git blame -L /void main/, git blame -L 46,/void foo/ +offset, -offset (only for <end>) git blame -...

One of the uses of recursion is to navigate through a hierarchical data structure, like a file system directory tree, without knowing how many levels the tree has or the number of objects on each level. In this example, you will see how to use recursion on a directory tree to find all sub-directorie...

It is a good idea to maintain a web-scraping session to persist the cookies and other parameters. Additionally, it can result into a performance improvement because requests.Session reuses the underlying TCP connection to a host: import requests with requests.Session() as session: # all req...

Because LINQ uses deferred execution, we can have a query object that doesn't actually contain the values, but will return the values when evaluated. We can thus dynamically build the query based on our control flow, and evaluate it once we are finished: IEnumerable<VehicleModel> BuildQuery(i...

While RODBC is restricted to Windows computers with compatible architecture between R and any target RDMS, one of its key flexibilities is to work with Excel files as if they were SQL databases. require(RODBC) con = odbcConnectExcel("myfile.xlsx") # open a connection to the Excel file s...

First need to create a final static logger object: final static Logger logger = Logger.getLogger(classname.class); Then, call logging methods: //logs an error message logger.info("Information about some param: " + parameter); // Note that this line could throw a NullPointerException!...

Log4j gives you posibility to log data into console and file at same time. Create a log4j.properties file and put inside this basic configuration: # Root logger option log4j.rootLogger=DEBUG, stdout, file # Redirect log messages to console log4j.appender.stdout=org.apache.log4j.ConsoleAppende...

If the help function is called in the console without any arguments, Python presents an interactive help console, where you can find out about Python modules, symbols, keywords and more. >>> help() Welcome to Python 3.4's help utility! If this is your first time using Python, you sho...

To get the value of the last result from your last expression in the console, use an underscore _. >>> 2 + 2 4 >>> _ 4 >>> _ + 6 10 This magic underscore value is only updated when using a python expression that results in a value. Defining functions or for loops ...

You can set an environment variable called PYTHONSTARTUP for Python's console. Whenever you enter the Python console, this file will be executed, allowing for you to add extra functionality to the console such as importing commonly-used modules automatically. If the PYTHONSTARTUP variable was set t...

Python has a variety of command-line switches which can be passed to py. These can be found by performing py --help, which gives this output on Python 3.4: Python Launcher usage: py [ launcher-arguments ] [ python-arguments ] script [ script-arguments ] Launcher arguments: -2 : Launch ...

Sometimes you need to keep a linear (non-branching) history of your code commits. If you are working on a branch for a while, this can be tricky if you have to do a regular git pull since that will record a merge with upstream. [alias] up = pull --rebase This will update with your upstream so...

You can use the star * when writing a function to collect all positional (ie. unnamed) arguments in a tuple: def print_args(farg, *args): print("formal arg: %s" % farg) for arg in args: print("another positional arg: %s" % arg) Calling method: print_args(1, &...
