Iterating over Collections

Iterating over List List<String> names = new ArrayList<>(Arrays.asList("Clementine", "Duran", "Mike")); Java SE 8 names.forEach(System.out::println); If we need parallelism use names.parallelStream().forEach(System.out::println); Java SE 5 fo...

Declaration

// Generic types are declared using the <T> annotation struct GenericType<T> { pub item: T } enum QualityChecked<T> { Excellent(T), Good(T), // enum fields can be generics too Mediocre { product: T } }

Instantiation

// explicit type declaration let some_value: Option<u32> = Some(13); // implicit type declaration let some_other_value = Some(66);

Generic functions

Generic functions allow some or all of their arguments to be parameterised. fn convert_values<T, U>(input_value: T) -> Result<U, String> { // Try and convert the value. // Actual code will require bounds on the types T, U to be able to do something with them. } If the compi...

Using expression in string literals

You can use curly braces to interpolate expressions into string literals: def f(x: String) = x + x val a = "A" s"${a}" // "A" s"${f(a)}" // "AA" Without the braces, scala would only interpolate the identifier after the $ (in this case f...

Function Prototype Scope

Member initialization

Each of the enum members may be initialized with a value. If a value is not specified for a member, by default it's initialized to 0 (if it's the first member in the member list) or to a value greater by 1 than the value of the preceding member. Module Module1 Enum Size Small ...

No return statement for a function with a non-void return type

Omitting the return statement in a function which is has a return type that is not void is undefined behavior. int function() { // Missing return statement } int main() { function(); //Undefined Behavior } Most modern day compilers emit a warning at compile time for this kind o...

Switch off properties during macro execution

It is best practice in any programming language to avoid premature optimization. However, if testing reveals that your code is running too slowly, you may gain some speed by switching off some of the application’s properties while it runs. Add this code to a standard module: Public Sub SpeedUp( _ ...

Simple lambda expressions

// A simple adder function defined as a lambda expression. // Unlike with regular functions, parameter types often may be omitted because the // compiler can infer their types let adder = |a, b| a + b; // Lambdas can span across multiple lines, like normal functions. let multiplier = |a: i32, ...

Returning lambdas from functions

Returning lambdas (or closures) from functions can be tricky because they implement traits and thus their exact size is rarely known. // Box in the return type moves the function from the stack to the heap fn curried_adder(a: i32) -> Box<Fn(i32) -> i32> { // 'move' applies move se...

BigInteger Mathematical Operations Examples

BigInteger is in an immutable object, so you need to assign the results of any mathematical operation, to a new BigInteger instance. Addition: 10 + 10 = 20 BigInteger value1 = new BigInteger("10"); BigInteger value2 = new BigInteger("10"); BigInteger sum = value1.add(value...
