When filtering a URL filter_var() will return the filtered data, in this case the URL, or false if a valid URL cannot be found: URL: example.com var_dump(filter_var('example.com', FILTER_VALIDATE_URL)); var_dump(filter_var('example.com', FILTER_VALIDATE_URL, FILTER_FLAG_SCHEME_REQUIRED)); var_du...

There are two ways you can bind a GridView. You can either manually do it by setting the DataSource property and calling DataBind(), or you can use a DataSourceControl such as a SqlDataSource. Manual Binding Create your GridView: <asp:GridView ID="gvColors" runat="server"&g...

In PHP 5.3+ and above you can utilize late static binding to control which class a static property or method is called from. It was added to overcome the problem inherent with the self:: scope resolutor. Take the following code class Horse { public static function whatToSay() { echo ...

const auto input = "Some people, when confronted with a problem, think \"I know, I'll use regular expressions.\""s; smatch sm; cout << input << endl; // If input ends in a quotation that contains a word that begins with "reg" and another word begining...

A std::regex_token_iterator provides a tremendous tool for extracting elements of a Comma Separated Value file. Aside from the advantages of iteration, this iterator is also able to capture escaped commas where other methods struggle: const auto input = "please split,this,csv, ,line,\\,\n&quot...

When processing of captures has to be done iteratively a regex_iterator is a good choice. Dereferencing a regex_iterator returns a match_result. This is great for conditional captures or captures which have interdependence. Let's say that we want to tokenize some C++ code. Given: enum TOKENS { ...

db.people.insert({name: 'Tom', age: 28}); Or db.people.save({name: 'Tom', age: 28}); The difference with save is that if the passed document contains an _id field, if a document already exists with that _id it will be updated instead of being added as new. Two new methods to insert documents...

Update the entire object: db.people.update({name: 'Tom'}, {age: 29, name: 'Tom'}) // New in MongoDB 3.2 db.people.updateOne({name: 'Tom'},{age: 29, name: 'Tom'}) //Will replace only first matching document. db.people.updateMany({name: 'Tom'},{age: 29, name: 'Tom'}) //Will replace all matchin...

Generators are useful when you need to generate a large collection to later iterate over. They're a simpler alternative to creating a class that implements an Iterator, which is often overkill. For example, consider the below function. function randomNumbers(int $length) { $array = []; ...

Our randomNumbers() function can be re-written to use a generator. <?php function randomNumbers(int $length) { for ($i = 0; $i < $length; $i++) { // yield tells the PHP interpreter that this value // should be the one used in the current iteration. yield mt...

One common use case for generators is reading a file from disk and iterating over its contents. Below is a class that allows you to iterate over a CSV file. The memory usage for this script is very predictable, and will not fluctuate depending on the size of the CSV file. <?php class CsvReade...

To be able to use JDBC you need to have the JDBC driver of your database on the class path of your application. There are multiple ways to connect to a database, but the common ways are to either use the java.sql.DriverManager, or to configure and use a database specific implementation of javax.sql...

The AppCompat Support Library defines several useful styles for Buttons, each of which extend a base Widget.AppCompat.Button style that is applied to all buttons by default if you are using an AppCompat theme. This style helps ensure that all buttons look the same by default following the Material D...

Atomic vectors (which excludes lists and expressions, which are also vectors) are subset using the [ operator: # create an example vector v1 <- c("a", "b", "c", "d") # select the third element v1[3] ## [1] "c" The [ operator can also tak...

For each dimension of an object, the [ operator takes one argument. Vectors have one dimension and take one argument. Matrices and data frames have two dimensions and take two arguments, given as [i, j] where i is the row and j is the column. Indexing starts at 1. ## a sample matrix mat <- matr...

Subsetting a data frame into a smaller data frame can be accomplished the same as subsetting a list. > df3 <- data.frame(x = 1:3, y = c("a", "b", "c"), stringsAsFactors = FALSE) > df3 ## x y ## 1 1 a ## 2 2 b ## 3 3 c > df3[1] # Subset a varia...

There are only two string operators: Concatenation of two strings (dot): $a = "a"; $b = "b"; $c = $a . $b; // $c => "ab" Concatenating assignment (dot=): $a = "a"; $a .= "b"; // $a => "ab"

The order in which operators are evaluated is determined by the operator precedence (see also the Remarks section). In $a = 2 * 3 + 4; $a gets a value of 10 because 2 * 3 is evaluated first (multiplication has a higher precedence than addition) yielding a sub-result of 6 + 4, which equals to 10...

Left association If the preceedence of two operators is equal, the associativity determines the grouping (see also the Remarks section): $a = 5 * 3 % 2; // $a now is (5 * 3) % 2 => (15 % 2) => 1 * and % have equal precedence and left associativity. Because the multiplication occurs first ...
