import javax.xml.bind.annotation.XmlRootElement; @XmlRootElement public class User { private long userID; private String name; // getters and setters } By using the annotation XMLRootElement, we can mark a class as a root element of an XML file. import java.io.File; ...

To read an XML file named UserDetails.xml with the below content <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?> <user> <name>Jon Skeet</name> <userID>8884321</userID> </user> We need a POJO class named U...

Use the orElseThrow() method of Optional to get the contained value or throw an exception, if it hasn't been set. This is similar to calling get(), except that it allows for arbitrary exception types. The method takes a supplier that must return the exception to be thrown. In the first example, the...

When desired XML format differs from Java object model, an XmlAdapter implementation can be used to transform model object into xml-format object and vice versa. This example demonstrates how to put a field's value into an attribute of an element with field's name. public class XmlAdapterExample { ...

"External" Storage is another type of storage that we can use to save files to the user's device. It has some key differences from "Internal" Storage, namely: It is not always available. In the case of a removable medium (SD card), the user can simply remove the storage. It i...

Annotation @XmlAccessorType determines whether fields/properties will be automatically serialized to XML. Note, that field and method annotations @XmlElement, @XmlAttribute or @XmlTransient take precedence over the default settings. public class XmlAccessTypeExample { @XmlAccessorType(XmlAccessT...

Annotations @XmlElement, @XmlAttribute or @XmlTransient and other in package javax.xml.bind.annotation allow the programmer to specify which and how marked fields or properties should be serialized. @XmlAccessorType(XmlAccessType.NONE) // we want no automatic field/property marshalling public cla...

var person = new Person { Address = null; }; var city = person.Address.City; //throws a NullReferenceException var nullableCity = person.Address?.City; //returns the value of null This effect can be chained together: var person = new Person { Address = new Address { ...

Parentheses are now forbidden around named parameters. The following compiles in C#5, but not C#6 5.0 Console.WriteLine((value: 23)); Operands of is and as are no longer allowed to be method groups. The following compiles in C#5, but not C#6 5.0 var result = "".Any is byte; T...

Generator expressions are very similar to list comprehensions. The main difference is that it does not create a full set of results at once; it creates a generator object which can then be iterated over. For instance, see the difference in the following code: # list comprehension [x**2 for x in r...

Exponentiation makes the second operand the power of the first operand (ab). var a = 2, b = 3, c = Math.pow(a, b); c will now be 8 6 Stage 3 ES2016 (ECMAScript 7) Proposal: let a = 2, b = 3, c = a ** b; c will now be 8 Use Math.pow to find the nth root of a number....

Sometimes you don't want to have your function accessible/stored as a variable. You can create an Immediately Invoked Function Expression (IIFE for short). These are essentially self-executing anonymous functions. They have access to the surrounding scope, but the function itself and any internal va...

Standard Creation It is recommended to use this form only when creating regex from dynamic variables. Use when the expression may change or the expression is user generated. var re = new RegExp(".*"); With flags: var re = new RegExp(".*", "gmi"); With a backsl...

There are several flags you can specify to alter the RegEx behaviour. Flags may be appended to the end of a regex literal, such as specifying gi in /test/gi, or they may be specified as the second argument to the RegExp constructor, as in new RegExp('test', 'gi'). g - Global. Finds all matches inst...

Match Using .exec() RegExp.prototype.exec(string) returns an array of captures, or null if there was no match. var re = /([0-9]+)[a-z]+/; var match = re.exec("foo123bar"); match.index is 3, the (zero-based) location of the match. match[0] is the full match string. match[1] is the t...

The String object has the following methods that accept regular expressions as arguments. "string".match(... "string".replace(... "string".split(... "string".search(... Match with RegExp console.log("string".match(/[i-n]+/)); console.log(&...

Changing the text of an existing UILabel can be done by accessing and modifying the text property of the UILabel. This can be done directly using String literals or indirectly using variables. Setting the text with String literals Swift label.text = "the new text" Objective-C // Do...

min(7,2,1,5) # Output: 1 max(7,2,1,5) # Output: 7

You can't pass an empty sequence into max or min: min([]) ValueError: min() arg is an empty sequence However, with Python 3, you can pass in the keyword argument default with a value that will be returned if the sequence is empty, instead of raising an exception: max([], default=42) ...
