5 We can avoid a property from showing up in for (... in ...) loops The enumerable property of the property descriptor tells whether that property will be enumerated while looping through the object's properties. var obj = { }; Object.defineProperty(obj, "foo", { value: 'show', enu...

5 A property's descriptor can be locked so no changes can be made to it. It will still be possible to use the property normally, assigning and retrieving the value from it, but any attempt to redefine it will throw an exception. The configurable property of the property descriptor is used to dis...

5 Treat a property as a combination of two functions, one to get the value from it, and another one to set the value in it. The get property of the property descriptor is a function that will be called to retrieve the value from the property. The set property is also a function, it will be call...

Syntax: SELECT * FROM table_name Using the asterisk operator * serves as a shortcut for selecting all the columns in the table. All rows will also be selected because this SELECT statement does not have a WHERE clause, to specify any filtering criteria. This would also work the same way if you...

This query will return the number of tables in the specified database. USE YourDatabaseName SELECT COUNT(*) from INFORMATION_SCHEMA.TABLES WHERE TABLE_TYPE = 'BASE TABLE' Following is another way this can be done for all user tables with SQL Server 2008+. The reference is here. SELECT COUNT(...

The following queries will return a list of all Stored Procedures in the database, with basic information about each Stored Procedure: SQL Server 2005 SELECT * FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.ROUTINES WHERE ROUTINE_TYPE = 'PROCEDURE' The ROUTINE_NAME, ROUTINE_SCHEMA and ROUTINE_DEFINITION columns are...

While object property notation is usually written as myObject.property, this will only allow characters that are normally found in JavaScript variable names, which is mainly letters, numbers and underscore (_). If you need special characters, such as space, ☺, or user-provided content, this is poss...

Sometimes the property name needs to be stored into a variable. In this example, we ask the user what word needs to be looked up, and then provide the result from an object I've named dictionary. var dictionary = { lettuce: 'a veggie', banana: 'a fruit', tomato: 'it depends on who yo...

Disclaimer: Creating array-like objects is not recommend. However, it is helpful to understand how they work, especially when working with DOM. This will explain why regular array operations don't work on DOM objects returned from many DOM document functions. (i.e. querySelectorAll, form.elements)...

The function std::find, defined in the <algorithm> header, can be used to find an element in a std::vector. std::find uses the operator== to compare elements for equality. It returns an iterator to the first element in the range that compares equal to the value. If the element in question is...

An array can easily be converted into a std::vector by using std::begin and std::end: C++11 int values[5] = { 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 }; // source array std::vector<int> v(std::begin(values), std::end(values)); // copy array to new vector for(auto &x: v) std::cout << x << &q...

When you start a thread, it will execute until it is finished. Often, at some point, you need to (possibly - the thread may already be done) wait for the thread to finish, because you want to use the result for example. int n; std::thread thread{ calculateSomething, std::ref(n) }; //Doing some...

You cannot pass a reference (or const reference) directly to a thread because std::thread will copy/move them. Instead, use std::reference_wrapper: void foo(int& b) { b = 10; } int a = 1; std::thread thread{ foo, std::ref(a) }; //'a' is now really passed as reference thread.join()...

std::this_thread is a namespace which has functions to do interesting things on the current thread from function it is called from. FunctionDescriptionget_idReturns the id of the threadsleep_forSleeps for a specified amount of timesleep_untilSleeps until a specific timeyieldReschedule running threa...

What are Array-like Objects? JavaScript has "Array-like Objects", which are Object representations of Arrays with a length property. For example: var realArray = ['a', 'b', 'c']; var arrayLike = { 0: 'a', 1: 'b', 2: 'c', length: 3 }; Common examples of Array-like Objects...

When local changes are present, the git pull command aborts reporting : error: Your local changes to the following files would be overwritten by merge In order to update (like svn update did with subversion), you can run : git stash git pull --rebase git stash pop A convenient way coul...

To get info from the requesting url (notice that req is the request object in the handler function of routes). Consider this route definition /settings/:user_id and this particular example /settings/32135?field=name // get the full path req.originalUrl // => /settings/32135?field=name // get...

Unlike the WHERE clause, HAVING can be used with aggregate functions. An aggregate function is a function where the values of multiple rows are grouped together as input on certain criteria to form a single value of more significant meaning or measurement (Wikipedia). Common aggregate function...

Reachability uses NSNotification messages to alert observers when the network state has changed. Your class will need to become an observer. [[NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter] addObserver:self selector:@selector(reachabilityChanged:) name:kReachabilityChangedNotification object:nil]; Elsewher...

- (void)reachabilityChanged:(NSNotification *)note { Reachability* reachability = [note object]; NetworkStatus netStatus = [reachability currentReachabilityStatus]; if (netStatus == NotReachable) { NSLog(@"Network unavailable"); } }
