The bind method of every function allows you to create new version of that function with the context strictly bound to a specific object. It is specially useful to force a function to be called as a method of an object. var obj = { foo: 'bar' }; function foo() { return this.foo; } fooOb...

Normally your tests should be created in such a way that execution order is no concern. However there is always going to be an edge case were you need to break that rule. The one scenario I came across was with R.NET whereby in a given process you can only initialize one R Engine and once disposed ...

let sel = document.getSelection(); sel.removeAllRanges();

let sel = document.getSelection(); let myNode = document.getElementById('element-to-select'); let range = document.createRange(); range.selectNodeContents(myNode); sel.addRange(range); It may be necessary to first remove all the ranges of the previous selection, as most browsers don't s...

If we have a struct like this struct Box { let name: String let thingsInside: Int } and an array of Box(es) let boxes = [ Box(name: "Box 0", thingsInside: 1), Box(name: "Box 1", thingsInside: 2), Box(name: "Box 2", thingsInside: 3), B...

Some attributes are directly accessible as properties of the element (e.g. alt, href, id, title and value). var a = document.querySelector("a"), url = a.href; Other attributes, including data-attributes can be accessed as follows: var a = document.querySelector("a"), ...

Values can be given names using let: # let a = 1;; val a : int = 1 You can use similar syntax to define a function. Just provide additional parameters for the arguments. # let add arg1 arg2 = arg1 + arg2;; val add : int -> int -> int = <fun> We can call it like this: # add 1...

3.0 let string = "My fantastic string" var index = string.startIndex while index != string.endIndex { print(string[index]) index = index.successor() } Note: endIndex is after the end of the string (i.e. string[string.endIndex] is an error, but string[string.startIndex] i...

A defer statement in Go is simply a function call marked to be executed at a later time. Defer statement is an ordinary function call prefixed by the keyword defer. defer someFunction() A deferred function is executed once the function that contains the defer statement returns.

[1, 2, [[3, 4], [5]], 6].flatten # => [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6] If you have a multi-dimensional array and you need to make it a simple (i.e. one-dimensional) array, you can use the #flatten method.

In case you need to read an array elements avoiding repetitions you case use the #uniq method: a = [1, 1, 2, 3, 4, 4, 5] a.uniq #=> [1, 2, 3, 4, 5] Instead, if you want to remove all duplicated elements from an array, you may use #uniq! method: a = [1, 1, 2, 3, 4, 4, 5] a.uniq! #=> [1...

Standard enumerations allow users to declare a useful name for a set of integers. The names are collectively referred to as enumerators. An enumeration and its associated enumerators are defined as follows: enum myEnum { enumName1, enumName2, }; An enumeration is a type, one which is...

A common use for enumerators is for switch statements and so they commonly appear in state machines. In fact a useful feature of switch statements with enumerations is that if no default statement is included for the switch, and not all values of the enum have been utilized, the compiler will issue ...

If targeting Flash Player 11+, the built-in removeChildren method is the best way to remove all children: removeChildren(); //a start and end index can be passed For legacy applications, the same can be accomplished with a loop: while (numChildren > 0) { removeChildAt(0); }

Enums in Swift are much more powerful than some of their counterparts in other languages, such as C. They share many features with classes and structs, such as defining initialisers, computed properties, instance methods, protocol conformances and extensions. protocol ChangesDirection { mutati...
