A type of live region containing a numerical counter which indicates an amount of elapsed time from a start point, or the time remaining until an end point. <p> <span role="timer">60</span> seconds remaining. </p>

Even when all your work is directed at a single worksheet, it's still a very good practice to explicitly specify the worksheet in your code. This habit makes it much easier to expand your code later, or to lift parts (or all) of a Sub or Function to be re-used someplace else. Many developers establi...

This is an example of a program written with manual memory management. You really shouldn't write your code like this, unless for some reason you can't use ARC (like if you need to support 32-bit). The example avoids @property notation to illustrate how you used to have to write getters and setters....

If you need an ActiveRecord method to raise an exception instead of a false value in case of failure, you can add ! to them. This is very important. As some exceptions/failures are hard to catch if you don't use ! on them. I recommended doing this in your development cycle to write all your ActiveRe...

We can destructure lists of compound objects CL-USER> (loop for (a . b) in '((1 . 2) (3 . 4) (5 . 6)) collect a) (1 3 5) CL-USER> (loop for (a . b) in '((1 . 2) (3 . 4) (5 . 6)) collect b) (2 4 6) CL-USER> (loop for (a b c) in '((1 2 3) (4 5 6) (7 8 9) (10 11 12)) collect b) (2 5 8 11...

This example shows how to create a delegate that encapsulates the method that returns the current time static DateTime UTCNow() { return DateTime.UtcNow; } static DateTime LocalNow() { return DateTime.Now; } static void Main(string[] args) { Func<DateTime> method = U...

An anonymous method can be assigned wherever a delegate is expected: Func<int, int> square = delegate (int x) { return x * x; } Lambda expressions can be used to express the same thing: Func<int, int> square = x => x * x; In either case, we can now invoke the method stored ins...

Func also supports Covariant & Contravariant // Simple hierarchy of classes. public class Person { } public class Employee : Person { } class Program { static Employee FindByTitle(String title) { // This is a stub for a method that returns // an employee that h...

The double-colon syntax of names in the use statement looks similar to names used elsewhere in the code, but meaning of these paths is different. Names in the use statement by default are interpreted as absolute, starting at the crate root. Names elsewhere in the code are relative to the current mo...

You can pass parameters to I18n t method: # Example config/locales/en.yml en: page: users: "%{users_count} users currently online" # In models, controller, etc... I18n.t('page.users', users_count: 12) # In views # ERB <%= t('page.users', users_count: 12) %> #S...

Anonymous methods provide a technique to pass a code block as a delegate parameter. They are methods with a body, but no name. delegate int IntOp(int lhs, int rhs); class Program { static void Main(string[] args) { // C# 2.0 definition IntOp add = delegate(int lhs,...

Date time formatting, according to the localization. const usDateTimeFormatting = new Intl.DateTimeFormat('en-US'); const esDateTimeFormatting = new Intl.DateTimeFormat('es-ES'); const usDate = usDateTimeFormatting.format(new Date('2016-07-21')); // "7/21/2016" const esDate = esDateT...

The most feasible way is to use, the DateTime class. An example: <?php // Create a date time object, which has the value of ~ two years ago $twoYearsAgo = new DateTime("2014-01-18 20:05:56"); // Create a date time object, which has the value of ~ now $now = new DateTime("2016...

GetLastError returns a numerical error code. To obtain a descriptive error message (e.g., to display to a user), you can call FormatMessage: // This functions fills a caller-defined character buffer (pBuffer) // of max length (cchBufferLength) with the human-readable error message // for a Win32 ...

Occasionally you may want to use the same tuple type in multiple places throughout your code. This can quickly get messy, especially if your tuple is complex: // Define a circle tuple by its center point and radius let unitCircle: (center: (x: CGFloat, y: CGFloat), radius: CGFloat) = ((0.0, 0.0), ...

In most examples, the class naming convention is used to define an Aurelia Custom Element. However, Aurelia also provides a decorator that can be used to decorate a class. The class is again treated as a custom element by Aurelia then. The value supplied to the decorator becomes the name of the cus...
