AsyncTaskLoader is an abstract Loader that provides an AsyncTask to do the work. Here some basic implementation: final class BasicLoader extends AsyncTaskLoader<String> { public BasicLoader(Context context) { super(context); } @Override public String loadInBa...

Once you've installed the .NET CLI tools, you can create a new project with the following command: dotnet new --lang f# This creates a command line program.

If you have nested lists, it is desireable to clone the nested lists as well. This action is called deep copy. >>> import copy >>> c = [[1,2]] >>> d = copy.deepcopy(c) >>> c is d False >>> c[0] is d[0] False

A dictionary object has the method copy. It performs a shallow copy of the dictionary. >>> d1 = {1:[]} >>> d2 = d1.copy() >>> d1 is d2 False >>> d1[1] is d2[1] True

UITextView has extra paddings by default. Sometimes it's annoying especially if you want to measure some text without view instance and place them at some area precisely. Do this to remove such paddings. messageTextView.textContainerInset = UIEdgeInsetsZero messageTextView.textContainer.lineFragm...

Before starting you must have: Anaconda installed on your system Account on Binstar If you are not using Anaconda 1.6+ install the binstar command line client: $ conda install binstar $ conda update binstar If you are not using Anaconda the Binstar is also available on pypi: $ pip install bin...

response = requests.get("https://api.github.com/events") text_resp = response.text JSON response: for json-formatted responses the package provides a built-in decoder response = requests.get('https://api.github.com/events') json_resp = response.json() This method will raise a Valu...

The attribute status_code contains the status code of the response good_req = requests.get('https://api.github.com/events') code_200 = good_req.status_code notfound_req = requests.get('https://api.github.com/not_found') code_404 = notfound_req.status_code requests.codes.__dict__ will provid...

Let's say you need to check if an email address appears in a long list of email addresses. Use the MATCH function to return the row number on which the email address can be found. If there is no match, the function returns an #N/A error. =MATCH(F2,$D$2:$D$200,0) The value you're retrieving ...

As-per the Haskell 2010 Language Specification, the following are standard IO functions available in Prelude, so no imports are required to use them. getChar :: IO Char - read a Char from stdin -- MyChar.hs main = do myChar <- getChar print myChar -- In your shell runhaskell MyChar...

ALTER TABLE tbl MODIFY COLUMN type ENUM('fish','mammal','bird','insect'); Notes As with all cases of MODIFY COLUMN, you must include NOT NULL, and any other qualifiers that originally existed, else they will be lost. If you add to the end of the list and the list is under 256 items, the ALTER...

Haskell supports many forms of concurrency and the most obvious being forking a thread using forkIO. The function forkIO :: IO () -> IO ThreadId takes an IO action and returns its ThreadId, meanwhile the action will be run in the background. We can demonstrate this quite succinctly using ghci: ...

#include <stdio.h> #include <threads.h> #include <stdlib.h> struct my_thread_data { double factor; }; int my_thread_func(void* a) { struct my_thread_data* d = a; // do something with d printf("we found %g\n", d->factor); // return an succes...

When the first time view is requested, normally Angular makes XHR request to get that view. For mid-size projects, the view count can be significant and it can slow down the application responsiveness. The good practice is to pre-load all the views at once for small and mid size projects. For large...

This example shows how to use a readonly wrapper property to create a property that cannot be written to. In this case cost and price can be modified, but profit will always be price - cost. import java.text.MessageFormat; import javafx.beans.property.IntegerProperty; import javafx.beans.property...

It is very easy to pass information between threads using the MVar a type and its accompanying functions in Control.Concurrent: newEmptyMVar :: IO (MVar a) -- creates a new MVar a newMVar :: a -> IO (MVar a) -- creates a new MVar with the given value takeMVar :: MVar a -> IO a -- retrieve...

It is possible to define a data type with field labels. data Person = Person { age :: Int, name :: String } This definition differs from a normal record definition as it also defines *record accessors which can be used to access parts of a data type. In this example, two record accessors are de...

Directive code angular.module('myModule', []) .directive('myDirective', function() { return { template: '<div>{{greeting}} {{name}}!</div>', scope: { name: '=', greeting: '@' } }; }); The test describe('myDirective', function() ...

Opening a database is an asynchronous operation. We need to send a request to open our database and then listen for events so we know when it's ready. We'll open a DemoDB database. If it doesn't exist yet, it will get created when we send the request. The 2 below says that we're asking for version...

Suppose we want to read and stack a bunch of similarly-formatted files. The quick solution is: rbindlist(lapply(list.files(patt="csv$"), fread), id=TRUE) We might not be satisfied with this for a couple reasons: It might run into errors when reading with fread or when stacking with ...
