The following examples use the UTF-8 encoding to represent filenames (and directory names) on disk. If you want to use another encoding, you should use Encode::encode(...). use v5.14; # Make Perl recognize UTF-8 encoded characters in literal strings. # For this to work: Make sure your text-editor...

Perl does not attempt to decode filenames returned by builtin functions or modules. Such strings representing filenames should always be decoded explicitly, in order for Perl to recognize them as Unicode. use v5.14; use Encode qw(decode_utf8); # Ensure that possible error messages printed to sc...

The quotes property is used to customize the opening and closing quotation marks of the <q> tag. q { quotes: "«" "»"; }

Some common operations in MATLAB, like differentiation or integration, output results that have a different amount of elements than the input data has. This fact can easily be overlooked, which would usually cause errors like Matrix dimensions must agree. Consider the following example: t = 0:0.1:1...

Recursive type Discriminated unions can be recursive, that is they can refer to themselves in their definition. The prime example here is a tree: type Tree = | Branch of int * Tree list | Leaf of int As an example, let's define the following tree: 1 2 5 3 4 We can defi...

Polymorphism means that a operation can also be applied to values of some other types. There are multiple types of Polymorphism: Ad hoc polymorphism: contains function overloading. The target is that a Method can be used with different types without the need of being generic. Parametric polym...

You can use parfor to execute the iterations of a loop in parallel: Example: poolobj = parpool(2); % Open a parallel pool with 2 workers s = 0; % Performing some parallel Computations parfor i=0:9 s = s + 1; end disp(s) % Outputs '10' d...

You can use the $q.all function to call a .then method after an array of promises has been successfully resolved and fetch the data they resolved with. Example: JS: $scope.data = [] $q.all([ $http.get("data.json"), $http.get("more-data.json"), ]).then(funct...

The $q constructor function is used to create promises from asynchronous APIs that use callbacks to return results. $q(function(resolve, reject) {...}) The constructor function receives a function that is invoked with two arguments, resolve and reject that are functions which are used to eithe...

var pug = require('pug'); // compile var fn = pug.compile('string of pug', options); var html = fn(locals); // render var html = pug.render('string of pug', merge(options, locals)); // renderFile var html = pug.renderFile('filename.pug', merge(options, locals)); Options filename U...

When using C#'s inbuilt lock statement an instance of some type is needed, but its state does not matter. An instance of object is perfect for this: public class ThreadSafe { private static readonly object locker = new object(); public void SomeThreadSafeMethod() { lock (locker) { ...

Ubuntu Below are detailed instructions to install Caffe, pycaffe as well as its dependencies, on Ubuntu 14.04 x64 or 14.10 x64. Execute the following script, e.g. "bash compile_caffe_ubuntu_14.sh" (~30 to 60 minutes on a new Ubuntu). # This script installs Caffe and pycaffe. # CPU onl...

//Get instance of cache using System.Runtime.Caching; var cache = MemoryCache.Default; //Check if cache contains an item with cache.Contains("CacheKey"); //get item from cache var item = cache.Get("CacheKey"); //get item from cache or add item if not existing obje...

If you want to provide a URL out of convenience for your user but map it directly to another one you're already using. Use a redirect: # config/routes.rb TestApp::Application.routes.draw do get 'courses/:course_name' => redirect('/courses/%{course_name}/lessons'), :as => "course&quot...

To create an albums collection, add the following to your config.yml file: collections: - albums Create a corresponding folder at the root of your Jekyll install, named exactly what you put in your config.yml file with an additional prepended underscore; in our example, <source>/_albums....

Even experienced Java developers tend to think that Java has only three protection modifiers. The language actually has four! The package private (a.k.a. default) level of visibility is often forgotten. You should pay attention to what methods you make public. The public methods in an application a...

These Java issues can be very embarrassing, and sometimes remain undiscovered until run in production. Fallthrough behavior in switch statements is often useful; however, missing a “break” keyword when such behavior is not desired can lead to disastrous results. If you have forgotten to put a “break...

Every time a program opens a resource, such as a file or network connection, it is important to free the resource once you are done using it. Similar caution should be taken if any exception were to be thrown during operations on such resources. One could argue that the FileInputStream has a finaliz...

Java manages memory automatically. You are not required to free memory manually. An object's memory on the heap may be freed by a garbage collector when the object is no longer reachable by a live thread. However, you can prevent memory from being freed, by allowing objects to be reachable that are...

This example is about deliberately ignoring or "squashing" exceptions. Or to be more precise, it is about how to catch and handle an exception in a way that ignores it. However, before we describe how to do this, we should first point out that squashing exceptions is generally not the co...
