To store a value into the Preferences node, one of the putXXX() methods is used. A value of a Preferences node can be of the type String, boolean, byte[], double, float, int or long. Preferences preferences = Preferences.userNodeForPackage(getClass()); preferences.put("someKey", "...

Preferences can be used to store user settings that reflect a user's personal application settings, e.g. their editor font, whether they prefer the application to be started in full-screen mode, whether they checked a "don't show this again" checkbox and things like that. public class Exi...

A very common guideline in object oriented design is "as little as possible but as much as necessary". This also applies to the strategy pattern: It is usually advisable to hide implementation details, for example which classes actually implement strategies. For simple strategies which do...

Note that all bitwise operations operate on 32-bit integers by passing any operands to the internal function ToInt32. Bitwise or var a; a = 0b0011 | 0b1010; // a === 0b1011 // truth table // 1010 | (or) // 0011 // 1011 (result) Bitwise and a = 0b0011 & 0b1010; // a === 0b0010 // t...

Iterators and pointers pointing into an std::vector can become invalid, but only when performing certain operations. Using invalid iterators/pointers will result in undefined behavior. Operations which invalidate iterators/pointers include: Any insertion operation which changes the capacity of...

CASE's shorthand variant evaluates an expression (usually a column) against a series of values. This variant is a bit shorter, and saves repeating the evaluated expression over and over again. The ELSE clause can still be used, though: SELECT Id, ItemId, Price, CASE Price WHEN 5 THEN 'CHEAP' ...

When calling a function without an explicit namespace qualifier, the compiler can choose to call a function within a namespace if one of the parameter types to that function is also in that namespace. This is called "Argument Dependent Lookup", or ADL: namespace Test { int call(int i)...

The struct template std::pair can bundle together exactly two return values, of any two types: #include <utility> std::pair<int, int> foo(int a, int b) { return std::make_pair(a+b, a-b); } With C++11 or later, an initializer list can be used instead of std::make_pair: C++11 ...

void Main() { unsafe { int[] a = {1, 2, 3}; fixed(int* b = a) { Console.WriteLine(b[4]); } } } Running this code creates an array of length 3, but then tries to get the 5th item (index 4). On my machine, this printed 1910457872, bu...

To add an image to a page, use the image tag. Image tags (img) do not have closing tags. The two main attributes you give to the img tag are src, the image source and alt, which is alternative text describing the image. <img src="images/hello.png" alt="Hello World"> Yo...

You can apply any kind of additional processing to the output by passing a callable to ob_start(). <?php function clearAllWhiteSpace($buffer) { return str_replace(array("\n", "\t", ' '), '', $buffer); } ob_start('clearAllWhiteSpace'); ?> <h1>Lorem Ipsum&l...

Variables you have provided in your view context can be accessed using double-brace notation: In your views.py: class UserView(TemplateView): """ Supply the request user object to the template """ template_name = "user.html" def get_context_data...

C++11 for loops can be used to iterate over the elements of a iterator-based range, without using a numeric index or directly accessing the iterators: vector<float> v = {0.4f, 12.5f, 16.234f}; for(auto val: v) { std::cout << val << " "; } std::cout <<...

This uses the Dropbox Python SDK to upload a file to the Dropbox API from the local file as specified by file_path to the remote path as specified by dest_path. It also chooses whether or not to use an upload session based on the size of the file: f = open(file_path) file_size = os.path.getsize(fi...

foreach is used to iterate over the elements of an array or the items within a collection which implements IEnumerable✝. var lines = new string[] { "Hello world!", "How are you doing today?", "Goodbye" }; foreach (string line in lines) { Con...

Useful for simple animations, the CSS transition property allows number-based CSS properties to animate between states. Example .Example{ height: 100px; background: #fff; } .Example:hover{ height: 120px; background: #ff0000; } View Result By default, hovering over an...

When creating animations and other GPU-heavy actions, it's important to understand the will-change attribute. Both CSS keyframes and the transition property use GPU acceleration. Performance is increased by offloading calculations to the device's GPU. This is done by creating paint layers (parts of...

For multi-stage CSS animations, you can create CSS @keyframes. Keyframes allow you to define multiple animation points, called a keyframe, to define more complex animations. Basic Example In this example, we'll make a basic background animation that cycles between all colors. @keyframes rainbow...

In JavaScript, any object can be the prototype of another. When an object is created as a prototype of another, it will inherit all of its parent's properties. var proto = { foo: "foo", bar: () => this.foo }; var obj = Object.create(proto); console.log(obj.foo); console.log(obj....

Suppose we have a plain object called prototype: var prototype = { foo: 'foo', bar: function () { return this.foo; } }; Now we want another object called obj that inherits from prototype, which is the same as saying that prototype is the prototype of obj var obj = Object.create(prototype); N...
