This example shows how to perform basic mathematical operations using BigDecimals. 1.Addition BigDecimal a = new BigDecimal("5"); BigDecimal b = new BigDecimal("7"); //Equivalent to result = a + b BigDecimal result = a.add(b); System.out.println(result); Result : 12 ...

SUBSTRING (or equivalent: SUBSTR) returns the substring starting from the specified position and, optionally, with the specified length Syntax: SUBSTRING(str, start_position) SELECT SUBSTRING('foobarbaz', 4); -- 'barbaz' SELECT SUBSTRING('foobarbaz' FROM 4); -- 'barbaz' -- using negative index...

When performance is a concern, invoking a method via reflection (i.e. via the MethodInfo.Invoke method) is not ideal. However, it is relatively straightforward to obtain a more performant strongly-typed delegate using the Delegate.CreateDelegate function. The performance penalty for using reflecti...

In order to be able to use a class as the key in a map, all that is required of the key is that it be copiable and assignable. The ordering within the map is defined by the third argument to the template (and the argument to the constructor, if used). This defaults to std::less<KeyType>, w...

What we have is a list of credit cards and we'd like to calculate the premiums for all those cards that the credit card company has to pay out. The premiums themselves depend on the total number of credit cards, so that the company adjust them accordingly. We already have a function that calculate...

When creating a timer, you can set the userInfo parameter to include information that you want to pass to the function you call with the timer. By taking a timer as a parameter in said function, you can access the userInfo property. NSDictionary *dictionary = @{ @&quo...

While using decorator syntax (with the @) is convenient, it also a bit concealing. You can use properties directly, without decorators. The following Python 3.x example shows this: class A: p = 1234 def getX (self): return self._x def setX (self, value): self._x =...

Multi-Editing allows the user to edit text at several locations simultaneously. Multi-Editing is disabled by default: it can be enabled (resp. disabled) in Preferences > Editing by checking (resp. unchecking) the related checkbox. To use Multi-Editing, the user can Ctrl Click on the differe...

Column Editing enables the user to edit text on several lines as a vertical square zone. This feature is enabled by default. There are 3 ways to select a zone to edit: Maintain Alt+Shift and use Up/Down/Left/Right to select the zone to edit with direction keys Maintain Alt+Shift and click on t...

The fact that the garbage collection will clean up does not mean that you should wait for the garbage collection cycle to clean up. In particular you should not wait for garbage collection to close file handles, database connections and open network connections. for example: In the following code...

Any String can be evaluated at runtime. class Example def self.foo :foo end end eval "Example.foo" #=> :foo

Ruby keeps track of local variables and self variable via an object called binding. We can get binding of a scope with calling Kernel#binding and evaluate string inside a binding via Binding#eval. b = proc do local_variable = :local binding end.call b.eval "local_variable" #=&gt...

Many languages feature a with statement that allows programmers to omit the receiver of method calls. with can be easily emulated in Ruby using instance_eval: def with(object, &block) object.instance_eval &block end The with method can be used to seamlessly execute methods on object...

The client first sends a request with an Accept-Encoding header that indicates it supports gzip: GET / HTTP/1.1\r\n Host: www.google.com\r\n Accept-Encoding: gzip, deflate\r\n \r\n The server may then send a response with a compressed response body and a Content-Encoding header that specifies...

R has a set of built in higher order functions: Map, Reduce, Filter, Find, Position, Negate. Map applies a given function to a list of values: words <- list("this", "is", "an", "example") Map(toupper, words) Reduce successively applies a binary functi...

If the file already exists, it will be overwritten! String fileName = "file.zip"; // name of the file String urlToGetFrom = "http://www.mywebsite.com/"; // URL to get it from String pathToSaveTo = "C:\\Users\\user\\"; // where to put it ...

The <progress> element is new in HTML5 and is used to represent the progress of a task <progress value="22" max="100"></progress> This creates a bar filled 22%

Progress bars can be styled with the progress[value] selector. This example gives a progress bar a width of 250px and a height of 20px progress[value] { width: 250px; height: 20px; } Progress bars can be especially difficult to style. Chrome / Safari / Opera These browsers use the -web...
