In Python 2, range function returns a list while xrange creates a special xrange object, which is an immutable sequence, which unlike other built-in sequence types, doesn't support slicing and has neither index nor count methods: Python 2.x2.3 print(range(1, 10)) # Out: [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9...

With any variadic function, the function must know how to interpret the variable arguments list. With the printf() or scanf() functions, the format string tells the function what to expect.

There are a couple different ways to protect your controller creation from minification. The first is called inline array annotation. It looks like the following: var app = angular.module('app'); app.controller('sampleController', ['$scope', '$http', function(a, b){ //logic here }]); The...

In your Visual Studio open the Solution Explorer window then right click on your project then choose Manage NuGet Packages from the menu: In the window that opens type EntityFramework in the search box in the top right. Or if you are using Visual Studio 2015 you'll see something like this: ...

You may need to convert a Stream emitting Optional to a Stream of values, emitting only values from existing Optional. (ie: without null value and not dealing with Optional.empty()). Optional<String> op1 = Optional.empty(); Optional<String> op2 = Optional.of("Hello World");...

float float is an alias to the .NET datatype System.Single. It allows IEEE 754 single-precision floating point numbers to be stored. This data type is present in mscorlib.dll which is implicitly referenced by every C# project when you create them. Approximate range: -3.4 × 1038 to 3.4 × 1038 Deci...

A common pattern is to use an inline, or trailing, if or unless: puts "x is less than 5" if x < 5 This is known as a conditional modifier, and is a handy way of adding simple guard code and early returns: def save_to_file(data, filename) raise "no filename given" if fi...

Rails uses sqlite3 as the default database, but you can generate a new rails application with a database of your choice. Just add the -d option followed by the name of the database. $ rails new MyApp -T -d postgresql This is a (non-exhaustive) list of available database options: mysql oracle...

Suppose you have a repository structure like this: examples/ output.log src/ <files not shown> output.log README.md output.log in the examples directory is valid and required for the project to gather an understanding while the one beneath src/ is created while debugging a...

The checked out file will overwrite not yet commited changes you did in this file. This command will check out the file file.example (which is located in the directory path/to/) and overwrite any changes you might have made to this file. git checkout some-branch path/to/file some-branch can be ...

To develop an application for iOS, you should start with an application called Xcode. There are other alternative tools you can use, but Xcode is Apple's official tool.

When working with multi-module projects, it is helpful to centralize dependencies in a single location rather than having them spread across many build files, especially for common libraries such as the Android support libraries and the Firebase libraries. One recommended way is to separate the Gra...

In Haskell, it often makes sense not to bother with file handles at all, but simply read or write an entire file straight from disk to memory†, and do all the partitioning/processing of the text with the pure string data structure. This avoids mixing IO and program logic, which can greatly help avoi...

Normally you would want to avoid using cursors as they can have negative impacts on performance. However in some special cases you may need to loop through your data record by record and perform some action. DECLARE @orderId AS INT -- here we are creating our cursor, as a local cursor and only a...

A module is a file containing Python definitions and statements. Function is a piece of code which execute some logic. >>> pow(2,3) #8 To check the built in function in python we can use dir(). If called without an argument, return the names in the current scope. Else, return an alph...

The Dim statement should be reserved for local variables. At module-level, prefer explicit access modifiers: Private for private fields, which can only be accessed within the module they're declared in. Public for public fields and global variables, which can be accessed by any calling code. Fr...
