Tutorial by Examples: r

An rvalue expression is any expression which can be implicitly moved from, regardless of whether it has identity. More precisely, rvalue expressions may be used as the argument to a function that takes a parameter of type T && (where T is the type of expr). Only rvalue expressions may be gi...

In this example, we illustrate string manipulation in MATLAB MEX. We will create a MEX-function that accepts a string as input from MATLAB, copy the data into C-string, modify it and convert it back to mxArray returned to the MATLAB side. The main objective of this example is to show how strings ca...

Since anonymous types are not named, variables of those types must be implicitly typed (var). var anon = new { Foo = 1, Bar = 2 }; // anon.Foo == 1 // anon.Bar == 2 If the member names are not specified, they are set to the name of the property/variable used to initialize the object. int foo ...

Generic methods allow the use of anonymous types through type inference. void Log<T>(T obj) { // ... } Log(new { Value = 10 }); This means LINQ expressions can be used with anonymous types: var products = new[] { new { Amount = 10, Id = 0 }, new { Amount = 20, Id = 1 }, ...

Using generic constructors would require the anonymous types to be named, which is not possible. Alternatively, generic methods may be used to allow type inference to occur. var anon = new { Foo = 1, Bar = 2 }; var anon2 = new { Foo = 5, Bar = 10 }; List<T> CreateList<T>(params T[] it...

Arrays of anonymous types may be created with implicit typing. var arr = new[] { new { Id = 0 }, new { Id = 1 } };

To remove a cookie, set the expiry timestamp to a time in the past. This triggers the browser's removal mechanism: setcookie('user', '', time() - 3600, '/'); When deleting a cookie make sure the path and domain parameters of setcookie() matches the cookie you're trying to delete or a new cooki...

C11 C11 introduced support for multiple threads of execution, which affords the possibility of data races. A program contains a data race if an object in it is accessed1 by two different threads, where at least one of the accesses is non-atomic, at least one modifies the object, and program seman...

round Rounds the value to the nearest whole number with x.5 rounding up (but note that -x.5 rounds down). round(3.000) // 3 round(3.001) // 3 round(3.499) // 3 round(3.500) // 4 round(3.999) // 4 round(-3.000) // -3 round(-3.001) // -3 round(-3.499) // -3 round(-3.500) // -4 *** careful...

arc4random_uniform(someNumber: UInt32) -> UInt32 This gives you random integers in the range 0 to someNumber - 1. The maximum value for UInt32 is 4,294,967,295 (that is, 2^32 - 1). Examples: Coin flip let flip = arc4random_uniform(2) // 0 or 1 Dice roll let roll = arc4random_...

What is Serialization Serialization is the process of converting an object's state (including its references) to a sequence of bytes, as well as the process of rebuilding those bytes into a live object at some future time. Serialization is used when you want to persist the object. It is also used b...

If you have cloned a fork (e.g. an open source project on Github) you may not have push access to the upstream repository, so you need both your fork but be able to fetch the upstream repository. First check the remote names: $ git remote -v origin https://github.com/myusername/repo.git (fetch...

By default, all the methods declared in a protocol are required. This means that any class that conforms to this protocol must implement those methods. It is also possible to declare optional methods. These method can be implemented only if needed. You mark optional methods with the @optional dire...

The following syntax indicate that a class adopts a protocol, using angle brackets. @interface NewClass : NSObject <NewProtocol> ... @end This means that any instance of NewClass will respond to methods declared in its interface but also it will provide an implementation for all the requ...

If you screw up a rebase, one option to start again is to go back to the commit (pre rebase). You can do this using reflog (which has the history of everything you've done for the last 90 days - this can be configured): $ git reflog 4a5cbb3 HEAD@{0}: rebase finished: returning to refs/heads/foo 4...

The typeof operator works on type parameters. class NameGetter<T> { public string GetTypeName() { return typeof(T).Name; } }

toList flattens a Foldable structure t a into a list of as. ghci> toList [7, 2, 9] -- t ~ [] [7, 2, 9] ghci> toList (Right 'a') -- t ~ Either e "a" ghci> toList (Left "foo") -- t ~ Either String [] ghci> toList (3, True) -- t ~ (,) Int [True] toList is ...

When json_encode or json_decode fails to parse the string provided, it will return false. PHP itself will not raise any errors or warnings when this happens, the onus is on the user to use the json_last_error() and json_last_error_msg() functions to check if an error occurred and act accordingly in ...

It is possible to instruct the Xamarin.Android Bindings Generator to ignore a Java type and not bind it. This is done by adding a remove-node XML element to the metadata.xml file: <remove-node path="/api/package[@name='{package_name}']/class[@name='{name}']" />

Interactive input To get input from the user, use the input function (note: in Python 2.x, the function is called raw_input instead, although Python 2.x has its own version of input that is completely different): Python 2.x2.3 name = raw_input("What is your name? ") # Out: What is your...
