SWIFT: Getting an instance of UIStoryboard programmatically can be done as follows: let storyboard = UIStoryboard(name: "Main", bundle: nil) where: name => the name of the storyboard without the extension bundle => the bundle containing the storyboard file and its relate...

A basic principle of functional programming is that it avoids changing the application state (statelessness) and variables outside it's scope (immutability). Pure functions are functions that: with a given input, always return the same output they do not rely on any variable outside their scope...

RTL (Right-to-left) support is an essential part in planning for i18n and L10n. Unlike English language which is written from left to right, many languages like Arabic, Japanese, Hebrew, etc. are written from right to left. To appeal to a more global audience, it is a good idea to plan your layouts ...

Starting SDK 17 (Android 4.2), RTL support was added in Android layouts and is an essential part of localization. Going forward, the left/right notation in layouts should be replaced by start/end notation. If, however, your project has a minSdk value less than 17, then both left/right and start/end ...

To test if the layouts that have been created are RTL compatible, do the following : Go to Settings -> Developer options -> Drawing -> Force RTL layout direction Enabling this option would force the device to use RTL locales and you can easily verify all parts of the app for RTL suppo...

The first step for coding for localization is to create default resources. This step is so implicit that many developers do not even think about it. However, creating default resources is important because if the device runs on an unsupported locale, it would load all of its resources from the defau...

Creating language specific layouts is often unnecessary if you have specified the correct start/end notation, as described in the earlier example. However, there may be situations where the defaults layouts may not work correctly for certain languages. Sometimes, left-to-right layouts may not transl...

By default, the escape character is ~. Just go ahead and type ~. in your opened SSH session. After hitting Enter your session will end immediately. Go ahead and try it in any session, it works regardless of the responsiveness of your session.

First method - Concatenation of strings The simplest method to plot multiple data files is to insert a for loop inside the plot command of gnuplot. Assuming you have N files named sequently, i.e. file_1.dat file_2.dat file_3.dat ... file_N.dat Executing the command plot for[i = 1:N] &quot...

In version 2.10, JMeter introduced a mechanism that saves you time when creating scripts - JMeter Templates. These templates are skeletons that can be reused as the base for your new scripts. JMeter already has several available templates with detailed descriptions, and you can also add your own. T...

From the gnuplot 5.0 official online documentation: The command language of gnuplot is case sensitive, i.e. commands and function names written in lowercase are not the same as those written in capitals. All command names may be abbreviated as long as the abbreviation is not ambiguous. Any number...

Returns a new deque object initialized left-to-right (using append()) with data from iterable. If iterable is not specified, the new deque is empty. Deques are a generalization of stacks and queues (the name is pronounced “deck” and is short for “double-ended queue”). Deques support thread-safe, me...

Go supports user defined types in the form of structs and type aliases. structs are composite types, the component pieces of data that constitute the struct type are called fields. a field has a type and a name which must be unqiue. package main type User struct { ID uint64 FullName st...

because a struct is also a data type, it can be used as an anonymous field, the outer struct can directly access the fields of the embedded struct even if the struct came from a diffrent package. this behaviour provides a way to derive some or all of your implementation from another type or a set of...

the receiver of a method is usually a pointer for performance reason because we wouldn't make a copy of the instance, as it would be the case in value receiver, this is especially true if the receiver type is a struct. anoter reason to make the receiver type a pointer would be so we could modify the...

You can install mocha either globally or in your project folder. The latter is the preferred way. In all the example let's assume that all the test files are in a test folder within the project folder. Install Mocha locally To install mocha in your project folder, you can use the following npm co...
