You can create an ordered dictionary which will follow a determined order when iterating over the keys in the dictionary. Use OrderedDict from the collections module. This will always return the dictionary elements in the original insertion order when iterated over. from collections import Ordere...

The static keyword declares a global static binding, which may be mutable. static HELLO_WORLD: &'static str = "Hello, world!"; fn main() { println("{}", HELLO_WORLD); } This outputs Hello, world!

Array.isArray(obj) returns true if the object is an Array, otherwise false. Array.isArray([]) // true Array.isArray([1, 2, 3]) // true Array.isArray({}) // false Array.isArray(1) // false In most cases you can instanceof to check if an object is an Array. []...

Get the current date. LocalDate.now() Get yesterday's date. LocalDate y = LocalDate.now().minusDays(1); Get tomorrow's date LocalDate t = LocalDate.now().plusDays(1); Get a specific date. LocalDate t = LocalDate.of(1974, 6, 2, 8, 30, 0, 0); In addition to the plus and minus methods, ...

Writing testable code is an important part of building a robust, maintainable, and agile project. Support for PHP's most widely used testing framework, PHPUnit, is built right into Laravel. PHPUnit is configured using the phpunit.xml file, which resides in the root directory of every new Laravel app...

function add(a, b) return a + b end -- creates a function called add, which returns the sum of it's two arguments Let's look at the syntax. First, we see a function keyword. Well, that's pretty descriptive. Next we see the add identifier; the name. We then see the arguments (a, b) these c...

Functions are only useful if we can call them. To call a function the following syntax is used: print("Hello, World!") We're calling the print function. Using the argument "Hello, World". As is obvious, this will print Hello, World to the output stream. The returned value is ...

Creating anonymous functions Anonymous functions are just like regular Lua functions, except they do not have a name. doThrice(function() print("Hello!") end) As you can see, the function is not assigned to any name like print or add. To create an anonymous function, all you hav...

Functions in Lua can return multiple results. For example: function triple(x) return x, x, x end When calling a function, to save these values, you must use the following syntax: local a, b, c = triple(5) Which will result in a = b = c = 5 in this case. It is also possible to ignore r...

Views, in an MVC pattern, contain the logic on how to present data to the user. In a web application, typically they are used to generate the HTML output that is sent back to users with each response. By default, views in Laravel are stored in the resources/views directory. A view can be called u...

home_url() is used for retrieving the current site home url. <?php echo esc_url( home_url( '/' ) ) ); ?> Output http://www.example.com

function output = mymult(a, b) % MYMULT Multiply two numbers. % output = MYMULT(a, b) multiplies a and b. % % See also fft, foo, sin. % % For more information, see <a href="matlab:web('https://google.com')">Google</a>. output = a * b; end help mymult then p...

In addition to reading data with Eloquent, you can also use it to insert or update data with the save() method. If you have created a new model instance then the record will be inserted; otherwise, if you have retrieved a model from the database and set new values, it will be updated. In this exa...

You can delete data after writing it to the database. You can either delete a model instance if you have retrieved one, or specify conditions for which records to delete. To delete a model instance, retrieve it and call the delete() method: $user = User::find(1); $user->delete(); Alternat...

Macros return code. Since code in Lisp consists of lists, one can use the regular list manipulation functions to generate it. ;; A pointless macro (defmacro echo (form) (list 'progn (list 'format t "Form: ~a~%" (list 'quote form)) form)) This is often very hard to...

After following the instructions above and installing Leiningen, start a new project by running: lein new <project-name> This will setup a Clojure project with the default Leiningen template within the <project-name> folder. There are several templates for Leiningen, which affect the...

Functions in Common Lisp are first class values. An anonymous function can be created by using lambda. For example, here is a function of 3 arguments which we then call using funcall CL-USER> (lambda (a b c) (+ a (* b c))) #<FUNCTION (LAMBDA (A B C)) {10034F484B}> CL-USER> (defvar *fo...

Any symbol in Common Lisp has a slot for a variable to be bound and a separate slot for a function to be bound. Note that the naming in this example is only for illustration. Global variables should not be named foo, but *foo*. The latter notation is a convention to make it clear that the variable ...

Common Lisp contains many higher order functions which are passed functions for arguments and call them. Perhaps the most fundamental are funcall and apply: CL-USER> (list 1 2 3) (1 2 3) CL-USER> (funcall #'list 1 2 3) (1 2 3) CL-USER> (funcall #'list 1 2 3 4 5) (1 2 3 4 5) CL-USER&g...

Introduction In this minimalist example, using pytest we're going to test that indeed our Hello World app does return "Hello, World!" with an HTTP OK status code of 200, when hit with a GET request on the URL / First let's install pytest into our virtualenv pip install pytest And jus...
