re.findall(r"[0-9]{2,3}", "some 1 text 12 is 945 here 4445588899") # Out: ['12', '945', '444', '558', '889'] Note that the r before "[0-9]{2,3}" tells python to interpret the string as-is; as a "raw" string. You could also use re.finditer() which works in...

Given some JSON file "foo.json" like: {"foo": {"bar": {"baz": 1}}} we can call the module directly from the command line (passing the filename as an argument) to pretty-print it: $ python -m json.tool foo.json { "foo": { "bar...

Install the svn client to start collaborating on the project that is using Subversion as its version control system. To install Subversion, you can build it yourself from a source code release or download a binary package pre-built for your operating system. The list of sites where you can obtain a...

If you want to use a pipe character (|) in the content of a cell you'll need to escape it with a backslash. Column | Column ------ | ------ \| Cell \|| \| Cell \| This results in the following table: ColumnColumn| Cell || Cell |

When ASP.NET handles a request, a thread is assigned from the thread pool and a request context is created. The request context contains information about the current request which can be accessed through the static HttpContext.Current property. The request context for the request is then assigned t...

Given a function that accepts a Node-style callback, fooFn(options, function callback(err, result) { ... }); you can promisify it (convert it to a promise-based function) like this: function promiseFooFn(options) { return new Promise((resolve, reject) => fooFn(options, (err, re...

The Problem The abstract equality and inequality operators (== and !=) convert their operands if the operand types do not match. This type coercion is a common source of confusion about the results of these operators, in particular, these operators aren't always transitive as one would expect. &...

The @property decorator can be used to define methods in a class which act like attributes. One example where this can be useful is when exposing information which may require an initial (expensive) lookup and simple retrieval thereafter. Given some module foobar.py: class Foo(object): def __...

In jQuery you can select elements in a page using many various properties of the element, including: Type Class ID Possession of Attribute Attribute Value Indexed Selector Pseudo-state If you know CSS selectors you will notice selectors in jQuery are the same (with minor exceptions). Ta...

InterruptedException is a confusing beast - it shows up in seemingly innocuous methods like Thread.sleep(), but handling it incorrectly leads to hard-to-manage code that behaves poorly in concurrent environments. At its most basic, if an InterruptedException is caught it means someone, somewhere, c...

If you want to use @property to implement custom behavior for setting and getting, use this pattern: class Cash(object): def __init__(self, value): self.value = value @property def formatted(self): return '${:.2f}'.format(self.value) @formatted.setter def ...

Simply use the javascript: protocol to run the text as JavaScript instead of opening it as a normal link: <a href="javascript:myFunction();">Run Code</a> You can also achieve the same thing using the onclick attribute: <a href="#" onclick="myFunction(); r...

var line = 0 var maximum_lines = 5 while (line < maximum_lines) { line = line + 1 println("Line number: " + line) }

var line = 0 var maximum_lines = 5 do { line = line + 1 println("Line number: " + line) } while (line < maximum_lines) The do/while loop is infrequently used in functional programming, but can be used to work around the lack of support for the break/continue construct, as...

Breakpoints pause your program once execution reaches a certain point. You can then step through the program line by line, observing its execution and inspecting the contents of your variables. There are three ways of creating breakpoints. From code, using the debugger; statement. From the brow...

3.0 Check if a string consists in exactly 8 digits: $ date=20150624 $ [[ $date =~ ^[0-9]{8}$ ]] && echo "yes" || echo "no" yes $ date=hello $ [[ $date =~ ^[0-9]{8}$ ]] && echo "yes" || echo "no" no
