2.3 The CoordinatorLayout is a container somewhat similar to FrameLayout but with extra capabilities, it is called super-powered FrameLayout in the official documentation. By attaching a CoordinatorLayout.Behavior to a direct child of CoordinatorLayout, you’ll be able to intercept touch events, wi...

A String can be read from an InputStream using the byte array constructor. import java.io.*; public String readString(InputStream input) throws IOException { byte[] bytes = new byte[50]; // supply the length of the string in bytes here input.read(bytes); return new String(bytes); ...

java.util.Date to java.sql.Date conversion is usually necessary when a Date object needs to be written in a database. java.sql.Date is a wrapper around millisecond value and is used by JDBC to identify an SQL DATE type In the below example, we use the java.util.Date() constructor, that creates a D...

This code compiles: Integer arg = null; int x = arg; But it will crash at runtime with a java.lang.NullPointerException on the second line. The problem is that a primitive int cannot have a null value. This is a minimalistic example, but in practice it often manifests in more sophisticated f...

Sometimes a RecyclerView will need to use several types of Views to be displayed in the list shown in the UI, and each View needs a different layout xml to be inflated. For this issue, you may use different ViewHolders in single Adapter, by using a special method in RecyclerView - getItemViewType(i...

When adding content from sources outside your domain, or from the local file system the canvas is marked as tainted. Attempt to access the pixel data, or convert to a dataURL will throw a security error. vr image = new Image(); image.src = "file://myLocalImage.png"; image.onload = funct...

At run time the following would display a list of url in your console and continue computation payload = [{url:..., title:...}, {url=..., title=...}] main = payload |> List.map .url -- only takes the url |> Debug.log " My list of URLs" -- pass the url...

Cons-cells, structures, vectors, lists and such can be matched with constructor patterns. (loop for i from 1 to 30 do (format t "~5<~a~;~>" (match (cons (mod i 3) (mod i 5)) ((cons 0 0) "Fizzbuzz")...

Guard patterns can be used to check that a value satisfies an arbitrary test-form. (dotimes (i 5) (format t "~d: ~a~%" i (match i ((guard x (oddp x)) "Odd!") (_ "Even!")))) ; 0: Even! ; 1: Odd! ; 2: Even! ; 3: Odd! ; 4: ...

A pointer to base class can be converted to a pointer to derived class using static_cast. static_cast does not do any run-time checking and can lead to undefined behaviour when the pointer does not actually point to the desired type. struct Base {}; struct Derived : Base {}; Derived d; Base* p1 ...

Simple Single Port RAM with one address for read/write operations. module ram_single #( parameter DATA_WIDTH=8, //width of data bus parameter ADDR_WIDTH=8 //width of addresses buses )( input [(DATA_WIDTH-1):0] data, //data to be written input [(ADDR_WIDTH-1):0] ad...

Say you want to print variables in a 3 character column. Note: doubling { and } escapes them. s = """ pad {{:3}} :{a:3}: truncate {{:.3}} :{e:.3}: combined {{:>3.3}} :{a:>3.3}: {{:3.3}} :{a:3.3}: {{:3.3}} :{c:3...

A class, functions as a template that defines the basic characteristics of a particular object. Here's an example: class Person(object): """A simple class.""" # docstring species = "Homo Sapiens" ...

If logic of generic class or method requires checking equality of values having generic type, use EqualityComparer<TType>.Default property: public void Foo<TBar>(TBar arg1, TBar arg2) { var comparer = EqualityComparer<TBar>.Default; if (comparer.Equals(arg1,arg2) {...

By default the Large Object Heap is not compacted unlike the classic Object Heap which can lead to memory fragmentation and further, can lead to OutOfMemoryExceptions Starting with .NET 4.5.1 there is an option to explicitly compact the Large Object Heap (along with a garbage collection): GCSettin...

Member member/2 has signature member(?Elem, ?List) and denotes true if Elem is a member of List. This predicate can be used to access variables in a list, where different solutions are retrieved through backtracking. Example queries: ?- member(X, [1,2,3]). X = 1 ; X = 2 ; X = 3. ?- member(X...

To simulate a phone call, press the 'Extended controls' button indicated by three dots, choose 'Phone' and select 'Call'. You can also optionally change the phone number.

We can omit the argument in the call if that argument is an Optional Argument Every Optional Argument has its own default value It will take default value if we do not supply the value A default value of a Optional Argument must be a Constant expression. Must be a value type such as enum or s...

Generic interfaces and delegates can have their type parameters marked as covariant or contravariant using the out and in keywords respectively. These declarations are then respected for type conversions, both implicit and explicit, and both compile time and run time. For example, the existing inte...

The ref keyword for callers of methods is now optional when calling into methods supplied by COM interfaces. Given a COM method with the signature void Increment(ref int x); the invocation can now be written as either Increment(0); // no need for "ref" or a place holder variable any m...
