Passing a context with a timeout (or with a cancel function) to a long running function can be used to cancel that functions work: ctx, _ := context.WithTimeout(context.Background(), 200*time.Millisecond) for { select { case <-ctx.Done(): return ctx.Err() default: ...

3.0 let someString = " Swift Language \n" let trimmedString = someString.stringByTrimmingCharactersInSet(NSCharacterSet.whitespaceAndNewlineCharacterSet()) // "Swift Language" Method stringByTrimmingCharactersInSet returns a new string made by removing from both ends of t...

A common problem is having a collection of items that all need to meet a certain criteria. In the example below we have collected two items for a diet plan and we want to check that the diet doesn't contain any unhealthy food. // First we create a collection $diet = collect([ ['name' => ...

You will often find yourself with a collection of data where you are only interested in parts of the data. In the example below we got a list of participants at an event and we want to provide a the tour guide with a simple list of names. // First we collect the participants $participants = colle...

In Java, parent and child class both can have static methods with the same name. But in such cases implementation of static method in child is hiding parent class' implementation, it's not method overriding. For example: class StaticMethodTest { // static method and inheritance public stati...

This code compiles: Integer arg = null; int x = arg; But it will crash at runtime with a java.lang.NullPointerException on the second line. The problem is that a primitive int cannot have a null value. This is a minimalistic example, but in practice it often manifests in more sophisticated f...

Member member/2 has signature member(?Elem, ?List) and denotes true if Elem is a member of List. This predicate can be used to access variables in a list, where different solutions are retrieved through backtracking. Example queries: ?- member(X, [1,2,3]). X = 1 ; X = 2 ; X = 3. ?- member(X...

Generic interfaces and delegates can have their type parameters marked as covariant or contravariant using the out and in keywords respectively. These declarations are then respected for type conversions, both implicit and explicit, and both compile time and run time. For example, the existing inte...

Using Code Contracts it is possible to apply a contract to an interface. This is done by declaring an abstract class that implments the interfaces. The interface should be tagged with the ContractClassAttribute and the contract definition (the abstract class) should be tagged with the ContractClas...

When a response contains valid JSON, just use the .json() method on the Response object to get the decoded result: response = requests.get('http://example.com/') decoded_result = response.json() However, this does not fail gracefully; it will raise a JSONDecodeError if the response object is no...

With Clipping and Masking you can make some specified parts of elements transparent or opaque. Both can be applied to any HTML element. Clipping Clips are vector paths. Outside of this path the element will be transparent, inside it's opaque. Therefore you can define a clip-path property on elemen...

A data race or race condition is a problem that can occur when a multithreaded program is not properly synchronized. If two or more threads access the same memory without synchronization, and at least one of the accesses is a 'write' operation, a data race occurs. This leads to platform dependent, p...

(Readonly variable: Memorizes its first data item and passes out copies of it as its output. Ignores all other data items) If BufferBlock is the most fundamental block in TPL Dataflow, WriteOnceBlock is the simplest. It stores at most one value, and once that value has been set, it will never be r...

Casting an instance of a base class to a subclass as in : b = (B) a; is called narrowing (as you are trying to narrow the base class object to a more specific class object) and needs an explicit type-cast. Casting an instance of a subclass to a base class as in: A a = b; is called widening and does...

Creating backpressured data sources is the relatively easier task when dealing with backpressure in general because the library already offers static methods on Observable that handle backpressure for the developer. We can distinguish two kinds of factory methods: cold "generators" that ei...

The navigation bar (at the bottom of the screen) can be transparent. Here is the way to achieve it. <style name="AppTheme" parent="Theme.AppCompat"> <item name="android:windowTranslucentNavigation">true</item> </style> The Status Bar (t...

There are hundreds of settings that can be placed in my.cnf. For the 'lite' user of MySQL, they won't matter as much. Once your database becomes non-trivial, it is advisable to set the following parameters: innodb_buffer_pool_size This should be set to about 70% of available RAM (if you have a...
