List Assignment If you are familiar with Perl, C, or Java, you might think that Bash would use commas to separate array elements, however this is not the case; instead, Bash uses spaces: # Array in Perl my @array = (1, 2, 3, 4); # Array in Bash array=(1 2 3 4) Create an array with new ...

Print element at index 0 echo "${array[0]}" 4.3 Print last element using substring expansion syntax echo "${arr[@]: -1 }" 4.3 Print last element using subscript syntax echo "${array[-1]}" Print all elements, each quoted separately echo "${array[@...

2.0 Guard checks for a condition, and if it is false, it enters the branch. Guard check branches must leave its enclosing block either via return, break, or continue (if applicable); failing to do so results in a compiler error. This has the advantage that when a guard is written it's not possible ...

Optionals must be unwrapped before they can be used in most expressions. if let is an optional binding, which succeeds if the optional value was not nil: let num: Int? = 10 // or: let num: Int? = nil if let unwrappedNum = num { // num has type Int?; unwrappedNum has type Int print(&quo...

To allow the use of in for custom classes the class must either provide the magic method __contains__ or, failing that, an __iter__-method. Suppose you have a class containing a list of lists: class ListList: def __init__(self, value): self.value = value # Create a set of al...

var favoriteColors: Set = ["Red", "Blue", "Green"] //favoriteColors = {"Blue", "Green", "Red"} You can use the insert(_:) method to add a new item into a set. favoriteColors.insert("Orange") //favoriteColors = {"Red&q...

from collections import Counter c = Counter(["a", "b", "c", "d", "a", "b", "a", "c", "d"]) c # Out: Counter({'a': 3, 'b': 2, 'c': 2, 'd': 2}) c["a"] # Out: 3 c[7] # not in the list (7 oc...

Counting the keys of a Mapping isn't possible with collections.Counter but we can count the values: from collections import Counter adict = {'a': 5, 'b': 3, 'c': 5, 'd': 2, 'e':2, 'q': 5} Counter(adict.values()) # Out: Counter({2: 2, 3: 1, 5: 3}) The most common elements are avaiable by the m...

alist = [1, 2, 3, 4, 1, 2, 1, 3, 4] alist.count(1) # Out: 3 atuple = ('bear', 'weasel', 'bear', 'frog') atuple.count('bear') # Out: 2 atuple.count('fox') # Out: 0

astring = 'thisisashorttext' astring.count('t') # Out: 4 This works even for substrings longer than one character: astring.count('th') # Out: 1 astring.count('is') # Out: 2 astring.count('text') # Out: 1 which would not be possible with collections.Counter which only counts single char...

var favoriteColors: Set = ["Red", "Blue", "Green"] //favoriteColors = {"Blue", "Green", "Red"} You can use the contains(_:) method to check whether a set contains a value. It will return true if the set contains that value. if favorite...

To load jQuery from the official CDN, go to the jQuery website. You'll see a list of different versions and formats available. Now, copy the source of the version of jQuery, you want to load. Suppose, you want to load jQuery 2.X, click uncompressed or minified tag which will show you something li...

Import the ElementTree object, open the relevant .xml file and get the root tag: import xml.etree.ElementTree as ET tree = ET.parse("yourXMLfile.xml") root = tree.getroot() There are a few ways to search through the tree. First is by iteration: for child in root: print(child.ta...

What is hoisting? Hoisting is a mechanism which moves all variable and function declarations to the top of their scope. However, variable assignments still happen where they originally were. For example, consider the following code: console.log(foo); // → undefined var foo = 42; console.log(fo...

Importing using base R Comma separated value files (CSVs) can be imported using read.csv, which wraps read.table, but uses sep = "," to set the delimiter to a comma. # get the file path of a CSV included in R's utils package csv_path <- system.file("misc", "exDIF.csv&q...

By default, a Date object is created as local time. This is not always desirable, for example when communicating a date between a server and a client that do not reside in the same timezone. In this scenario, one doesn't want to worry about timezones at all until the date needs to be displayed in lo...

A very simple way to import data from many common file formats is with rio. This package provides a function import() that wraps many commonly used data import functions, thereby providing a standard interface. It works simply by passing a file name or URL to import(): import("example.csv&quot...

Final classes When used in a class declaration, the final modifier prevents other classes from being declared that extend the class. A final class is a "leaf" class in the inheritance class hierarchy. // This declares a final class final class MyFinalClass { /* some code */ } ...
