We are going to be showing how to make a GET request to an API that responds with a JSON object or a JSON array. The first thing we need to do is add the Retrofit and GSON Converter dependencies to our module's gradle file. Add the dependencies for retrofit library as described in the Remarks secti...

One of the first questions people have when they begin to use PowerShell for scripting is how to manipulate the output from a cmdlet to perform another action. The pipeline symbol | is used at the end of a cmdlet to take the data it exports and feed it to the next cmdlet. A simple example is using...

Visit https://download.racket-lang.org and choose between the two available distributions: Racket is the main distribution, it comes with several additional packages like math/number-theory as well as the DrRacket IDE. Minimal Racket is far smaller and comes only with the needed packages. Ins...

The virtualenvwrapper utility simplifies working with virtual environments and is especially useful if you are dealing with many virtual environments/projects. Instead of having to deal with the virtual environment directories yourself, virtualenvwrapper manages them for you, by storing all virtual...

The OR (||) operator returns true if one of its two operands evaluates to true, otherwise it returns false. For example, the following code evaluates to true because at least one of the expressions either side of the OR operator is true: if (10 < 20) || (20 < 10) { print("Expression...

When Fortran was originally developed memory was at a premium. Variables and procedure names could have a maximum of 6 characters, and variables were often implicitly typed. This means that the first letter of the variable name determines its type. variables beginning with i, j, ..., n are intege...

For setting some zoom level, let say we want to zoom user's location with user location as center and 2km of area as radius. Then, we use following code MKUserLocation *userLocation = _mapView.userLocation; MKCoordinateRegion region = MKCoordinateRegionMakeWithDistance (userLocation.location.coord...

MKLocalSearch allows users to search for location using natural language strings like "gym". Once the search get completed, the class returns a list of locations within a specified region that match the search string. Search results are in form of MKMapItem within MKLocalSearchResponse ob...

The filter or map functions should often be replaced by list comprehensions. Guido Van Rossum describes this well in an open letter in 2005: filter(P, S) is almost always written clearer as [x for x in S if P(x)], and this has the huge advantage that the most common usages involve predicates tha...

The MATLAB Profiler is a tool for software profiling of MATLAB code. Using the Profiler, it is possible to obtain a visual representation of both execution time and memory consumption. Running the Profiler can be done in two ways: Clicking the "Run and Time" button in the MATLAB GUI...

One might want to group their data by the runs of a variable and perform some sort of analysis. Consider the following simple dataset: (dat <- data.frame(x = c(1, 1, 2, 2, 2, 1), y = 1:6)) # x y # 1 1 1 # 2 1 2 # 3 2 3 # 4 2 4 # 5 2 5 # 6 1 6 The variable x has three runs: a run of l...

The following code is for iOS 8 and lower for creating a login alert. // Create the UIAlertView var loginAlertView = new UIAlertView(title, message, null, cancelTitle, okTitle); // Setting the AlertViewStyle to UIAlertViewStyle.LoginAndPasswordInput loginAlertView.AlertViewStyle = UIAlertViewS...

The module cmath includes additional functions to use complex numbers. import cmath This module can calculate the phase of a complex number, in radians: z = 2+3j # A complex number cmath.phase(z) # 0.982793723247329 It allows the conversion between the cartesian (rectangular) and polar repr...

Python has built-in support for complex arithmetic. The imaginary unit is denoted by j: z = 2+3j # A complex number w = 1-7j # Another complex number Complex numbers can be summed, subtracted, multiplied, divided and exponentiated: z + w # (3-4j) z - w # (1+10j) z * w # (23-11j) z / w # (...

To install Eclipse, go to the Eclipse Downloads Web page where there is usually a direct link to download the latest version of Eclipse. Starting Eclipse Mars (version 4.5), an installer can be downloaded which guides you through the installation procedure, as opposed to downloading the whole instal...

Vector size is simply the number of elements in the vector: Current vector size is queried by size() member function. Convenience empty() function returns true if size is 0: vector<int> v = { 1, 2, 3 }; // size is 3 const vector<int>::size_type size = v.size(); cout << size...

MATLAB code can be saved in m-files to be reused. m-files have the .m extension which is automatically associated with MATLAB. An m-file can contain either a script or functions. Scripts Scripts are simply program files that execute a series of MATLAB commands in a predefined order. Scripts do no...
