1. Target a device by serial number Use the -s option followed by a device name to select on which device the adb command should run. The -s options should be first in line, before the command. adb -s <device> <command> Example: adb devices List of devices attached emulator-55...

When you create an argparse ArgumentParser() and run your program with '-h' you get an automated usage message explaining what arguments you can run your software with. By default, positional arguments and conditional arguments are separated into two categories, for example, here is a small script ...

CSS ul { list-style: none; counter-reset: list-item-number; /* self nesting counter as name is same for all levels */ } li { counter-increment: list-item-number; } li:before { content: counters(list-item-number, ".") " "; /* usage of counters() function means val...

In many other languages, if you run the following (Java example) if("asgdsrf" == 0) { //do stuff } ... you'll get an error. You can't just go comparing strings to integers like that. In Python, this is a perfectly legal statement - it'll just resolve to False. A common gotcha ...

<div tabindex="2">Second</div> <div tabindex="1">First</div> Positive values will insert the element at the tabbing order position of its respective value. Elements without preference (i.e. tabindex="0" or native elements such as button and a...

Let's add a custom operator to multiply a CGSize func *(lhs: CGFloat, rhs: CGSize) -> CGSize{ let height = lhs*rhs.height let width = lhs*rhs.width return CGSize(width: width, height: height) } Now this works let sizeA = CGSize(height:100, width:200) let sizeB = 1.1 * si...

char buf[8]; /* tiny buffer, easy to overflow */ printf("What is your name?\n"); scanf("%s", buf); /* WRONG */ scanf("%7s", buf); /* RIGHT */ If the user enters a string longer than 7 characters (- 1 for the null terminator), memory behind the buffer buf will be...

If realloc fails, it returns NULL. If you assign the value of the original buffer to realloc's return value, and if it returns NULL, then the original buffer (the old pointer) is lost, resulting in a memory leak. The solution is to copy into a temporary pointer, and if that temporary is not NULL, th...

Floating point types (float, double and long double) cannot precisely represent some numbers because they have finite precision and represent the values in a binary format. Just like we have repeating decimals in base 10 for fractions such as 1/3, there are fractions that cannot be represented fini...

Stanford CoreNLP is a popular Natural Language Processing toolkit supporting many core NLP tasks. To download and install the program, either download a release package and include the necessary *.jar files in your classpath, or add the dependency off of Maven central. See the download page for mor...

Adding a Conditional attribute from System.Diagnostics namespace to a method is a clean way to control which methods are called in your builds and which are not. #define EXAMPLE_A using System.Diagnostics; class Program { static void Main() { ExampleA(); // This method will ...

Creating a custom directive with isolated scope will separate the scope inside the directive from the outside scope, in order to prevent our directive from accidentally change the data in the parent scope and restricting it from reading private data from the parent scope. To create an isolated scop...

Use Kernel.inspect to convert anything to string. iex> Kernel.inspect(1) "1" iex> Kernel.inspect(4.2) "4.2" iex> Kernel.inspect %{pi: 3.14, name: "Yos"} "%{pi: 3.14, name: \"Yos\"}"

Components are simply instances that implement the Ashley component class. import com.badlogic.ashley.core.Component; import com.badlogic.ashley.core.ComponentMapper; public class Position implements Component { public static final ComponentMapper<Position> Map = ...

Some languages include a list data structure. Common Lisp, and other languages in the Lisp family, make extensive use of lists (and the name Lisp is based on the idea of a LISt Processor). However, Common Lisp doesn't actually include a primitive list datatype. Instead, lists exist by convention....

A cons cell, also known as a dotted pair (because of its printed representation), is simply a pair of two objects. A cons cell is created by the function cons, and elements in the pair are extracted using the functions car and cdr. (cons "a" 4) For instance, this returns a pair whose ...

Like lists and tuples, you can include a trailing comma in your dictionary. role = {"By day": "A typical programmer", "By night": "Still a typical programmer", } PEP 8 dictates that you should leave a space between the trailing comma and the closi...

This query selects all books with any rating less than three. bad_books = Books.objects.filter(ratings_range__contains=(1, 3))

This query gets all books with ratings greater than or equal to zero and less than six. all_books = Book.objects.filter(ratings_range_contained_by=(0, 6))

the timedelta module comes in handy to compute differences between times: from datetime import datetime, timedelta now = datetime.now() then = datetime(2016, 5, 23) # datetime.datetime(2016, 05, 23, 0, 0, 0) Specifying time is optional when creating a new datetime object delta = now-then ...
