Docker builds images as a collection of layers. Each layer can only add data, even if this data says that a file has been deleted. Every instruction creates a new layer. For example:
RUN apt-get -qq update
RUN apt-get -qq install some-package

It is possible to save a Docker container's filesystem contents to a tarball archive file. This is useful in a pinch for moving container filesystems to different hosts, for example if a database container has important changes and it isn't otherwise possible to replicate those changes elsewhere.

The most simple way is to use sorted():
let words = ["Hello", "Bonjour", "Salute", "Ahola"]
let sortedWords = words.sorted()
print(sortedWords) // ["Ahola", "Bonjour", "Hello", "Salute"]
or sort()

The method compareTo should be used to compare BigDecimals:
BigDecimal a = new BigDecimal(5);
a.compareTo(new BigDecimal(0)); // a is greater, returns 1
a.compareTo(new BigDecimal(5)); // a is equal, returns 0
a.compareTo(new BigDecimal(10)); // a is less, returns -1

A powerful alternative to virtualenv is Anaconda - a cross-platform, pip-like package manager bundled with features for quickly making and removing virtual environments. After installing Anaconda, here are some commands to get started:
Create an environment

Query syntax and method syntax are semantically identical, but many people find query syntax simpler and easier to read. Let’s say we need to retrieve all even items ordered in ascending order from a collection of numbers.
C#:
int[] numbers = { 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 };
// Query syntax:

A HAVING clause filters the results of a GROUP BY expression. Note: The following examples are using the Library example database.
Examples:
Return all authors that wrote more than one book (live example).

We can use 1,2,3.. to determine the type of order:

WHEN 'RESEARCH' THEN 3
WHEN 'INNOVATION' THEN 4
ELSE 5

When results need to have some logic applied 'on the fly' one can use CASE statement to implement it.
SELECT CASE WHEN Col1 < 50 THEN 'under' ELSE 'over' END threshold
FROM TableName
also can be chained
SELECT
CASE WHEN Col1 < 50 THEN 'under'
WHEN Col1 > 50 AND Col1 ...
Sometimes when tables are used mostly (or only) for reads, indexing does not help anymore and every little bit counts, one might use selects without LOCK to improve performance.
SQL Server
SELECT * FROM TableName WITH (nolock)

Sometimes one wants to capture the records that have just been updated.
CREATE TABLE #TempUpdated(ID INT)
Update TableName SET Col1 = 42
OUTPUT inserted.ID INTO #TempUpdated
WHERE Id > 50

The Kernel#require method will load files only once (several calls to require will result in the code in that file being evaluated only once). It will search your ruby $LOAD_PATH to find the required file if the parameter is not an absolute path. Extensions like .rb, .so, .o or .dll are optional. Re...
The method Kernel#autoload registers filename to be loaded (using Kernel::require) the first time that module (which may be a String or a symbol) is accessed.
autoload :MyModule, '/usr/local/lib/modules/my_module.rb'
The method Kernel#autoload? returns filename to be loaded if name is registere...
When files are not available, the require family will throw a LoadError. This is an example which illustrates loading optional modules only if they exist.
module TidBits

, { name: 'Fs' ...
The Kernel#load method will evaluate the code in the given file. The search path will be constructed as with require. It will re-evaluate that code on every subsequent call unlike require. There is no load_relative.
