You can use Bash Parameter Expansion to emulate common filename-processing operations like basename and dirname. We will use this as our example path: FILENAME="/tmp/example/myfile.txt" To emulate dirname and return the directory name of a file path: echo "${FILENAME%/*}" ...

Another use of RODBC is in connecting with SQL Server Management Database. We need to specify the 'Driver' i.e. SQL Server here, the database name "Atilla" and then use the sqlQuery to extract either the full table or a fraction of it. library(RODBC) cn <- odbcDriverConnect(connect...

proc myproc {} { puts "hi" } myproc # => hi An empty argument list (the second argument after the procedure name, "myproc") means that the procedure will not accept arguments.

proc myproc {alpha beta} { ... set foo $alpha set beta $bar ;# note: possibly useless invocation } myproc 12 34 ;# alpha will be 12, beta will be 34 If the argument list consists of words, those will be the names of local variables in the procedure, and their initi...

proc myproc args { ... } proc myproc {args} { ... } ;# equivalent If the special parameter name args is the last item in the argument list, it receives a list of all arguments at that point in the command line. If there are none, the list is empty. There can be arguments, including optional one...

/* within a class, def, trait or object, but not a constructor */ synchronized { /* code to run when an intrisctic lock on `this` is acquired */ /* no other thread can get the this lock unless execution is suspended with * `wait` on `this` */ }

The GetParentFolderName method returns the parent folder for any path. While this can also be used with folders, it is arguably more useful for extracting the path from an absolute file path: Dim fso As New Scripting.FileSystemObject Debug.Print fso.GetParentFolderName("C:\Users\Me\My Docume...
