#;(define (commented-out-function x) (print (string-append "This entire " "s-expression is commented out!")))

Linux uses some conventions for present and parent directories. This can be a little confusing for beginners. Whenever you are in a terminal in Linux, you will be in what is called the current working directory. Often your command prompt will display either the full working directory, or just the l...

In C, all function parameters are passed by value, so modifying what is passed in callee functions won't affect caller functions' local variables. #include <stdio.h> void modify(int v) { printf("modify 1: %d\n", v); /* 0 is printed */ v = 42; printf("modify 2:...

Merge Sort is a common sorting algorithm with an average case complexity of O(n log n) and a worst case complexity of O(n log n). Although it cannot be executed in-place, it guarantees O(n log n) complexity in all cases. Merge Sort repeatedly splits the input in two, until an empty list or single-e...

Ruby has an or-equals operator that allows a value to be assigned to a variable if and only if that variable evaluates to either nil or false. ||= # this is the operator that achieves this. this operator with the double pipes representing or and the equals sign representing assigning of a valu...

class A: x = None # type: float def __init__(self, x: float) -> None: """ self should not be annotated init should be annotated to return None """ self.x = x @classmethod def from_int(cls, x: int...

A way to use confirm() is when some UI action does some destructive changes to the page and is better accompanied by a notification and a user confirmation - like i.e. before deleting a post message: <div id="post-102"> <p>I like Confirm modals.</p> <a data-dele...

This way may seem to be uselss becuase you are using anonymous function to acomplish something that you can do it with join(); But if you need to make something to the strings while you are converting the Array to String, this can be useful. var arr = ['a', 'á', 'b', 'c'] function upper_lower (...

This example shows how to use two audio sources, and alter one of them based on the other. In this case we create an audio Ducker, that will lower the volume of the primary track if the secondary track produces sound. The ScriptProcessorNode will send regular events to its audioprocess handler. In ...

The numpy dot function has an optional parameter out=None. This parameter allows you to specify an array to write the result to. This array must be exactly the same shape and type as the array that would have been returned, or an exception will be thrown. >>> I = np.eye(2) >>> I ...

process.argv is an array containing the command line arguments. The first element will be node, the second element will be the name of the JavaScript file. The next elements will be any additional command line arguments. Code Example: Output sum of all command line arguments index.js var sum = 0...

A While loop starts by evaluating a condition. If it is true, the body of the loop is executed. After the body of the loop is executed, the While condition is evaluated again to determine whether to re-execute the body. Dim iteration As Integer = 1 While iteration <= 10 Console.Writeline(ite...

VOLUME ["/data"] The VOLUME instruction creates a mount point with the specified name and marks it as holding externally mounted volumes from native host or other containers. The value can be a JSON array, VOLUME ["/var/log/"], or a plain string with multiple arguments, such a...

Even with guard clauses, one cannot realistically always account for all possible error conditions that could be raised in the body of a procedure. The On Error GoTo statement instructs VBA to jump to a line label and enter "error handling mode" whenever an unexpected error occurs at runti...

An error-handling subroutine will either: run to the end of the procedure, in which case execution resumes in the calling procedure. or, use the Resume keyword to resume execution inside the same procedure. The Resume keyword should only ever be used inside an error handling subroutine, becau...

Often when writing a specialized class, you'll want it to raise its own specific errors, and you'll want a clean way for user/calling code to handle these custom errors. A neat way to achieve this is by defining a dedicated Enum type: Option Explicit Public Enum FoobarError Err_FooWasNotBarre...

In pointer arithmetic, the integer to be added or subtracted to pointer is interpreted not as change of address but as number of elements to move. #include <stdio.h> int main(void) { int array[] = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5}; int *ptr = &array[0]; int *ptr2 = ptr + sizeof(int) * 2; ...

Mesos is a cluster manager aiming for improved resource utilization by dynamically sharing resources among multiple frameworks. It was started at the University of California, Berkeley in 2009 and is in production use in many companies, including Twitter and Airbnb. It became an Apache top-level ...

6 ES6: myFunction.name Explanation on MDN. As of 2015 works in nodejs and all major browsers except IE. 5 ES5: If you have a reference to the function, you can do: function functionName( func ) { // Match: // - ^ the beginning of the string // - function the w...

docker run -d --name "mysql-1" -v "/var/lib/mysql" mysql This command creates a new container from the mysql image. It also creates a new data volume, which it then mounts in the container at /var/lib/mysql. This volume helps any data inside of it persist beyond the lifetime o...
