Accessing array values is generally done through square brackets: int val; int array[10]; /* Setting the value of the fifth element to 5: */ array[4] = 5; /* The above is equal to: */ *(array + 4) = 5; /* Reading the value of the fifth element: */ val = array[4]; As a side effect of...

git rm filename To delete the file from git without removing it from disk, use the --cached flag git rm --cached filename

Supposing you have a class that stores purely integer values: class Integer(object): def __init__(self, value): self.value = int(value) # Cast to an integer def __repr__(self): return '{cls}({val})'.format(cls=self.__class__.__name__, ...

String also have an index method but also more advanced options and the additional str.find. For both of these there is a complementary reversed method. astring = 'Hello on StackOverflow' astring.index('o') # 4 astring.rindex('o') # 20 astring.find('o') # 4 astring.rfind('o') # 20 The ...

list and tuple have an index-method to get the position of the element: alist = [10, 16, 26, 5, 2, 19, 105, 26] # search for 16 in the list alist.index(16) # 1 alist[1] # 16 alist.index(15) ValueError: 15 is not in list But only returns the position of the first found element: ...

Sorted sequences allow the use of faster searching algorithms: bisect.bisect_left()1: import bisect def index_sorted(sorted_seq, value): """Locate the leftmost value exactly equal to x or raise a ValueError""" i = bisect.bisect_left(sorted_seq, value) ...

Sometimes the number of types you are mapping exceeds the 7 provided by the Func<> that does the construction. Instead of using the Query<> with the generic type argument inputs, we will provide the types to map to as an array, followed by the mapping function. Other than the initial ma...

The system header TargetConditionals.h defines several macros which you can use from C and Objective-C to determine which platform you're using. #import <TargetConditionals.h> // imported automatically with Foundation - (void)doSomethingPlatformSpecific { #if TARGET_OS_IOS // code t...

A submodule is always checked out at a specific commit SHA1 (the "gitlink", special entry in the index of the parent repo) But one can request to update that submodule to the latest commit of a branch of the submodule remote repo. Rather than going in each submodule, doing a git checkout...

int i = 42; i = i++; /* Assignment changes variable, post-increment as well */ int a = i++ + i--; Code like this often leads to speculations about the "resulting value" of i. Rather than specifying an outcome, however, the C standards specify that evaluating such an expression produc...

int foo(void) { /* do stuff */ /* no return here */ } int main(void) { /* Trying to use the (not) returned value causes UB */ int value = foo(); return 0; } When a function is declared to return a value then it has to do so on every possible code path through it. Undefined beh...

#include <stdio.h> #include <stdlib.h> #include <string.h> int main(int argc, char **argv) { /* Exit if no second argument is found. */ if (argc != 2) { puts("Argument missing."); return EXIT_FAILURE; } size_t len = str...

Sets are unordered collections of unique values. Unique values must be of the same type. var colors = Set<String>() You can declare a set with values by using the array literal syntax. var favoriteColors: Set<String> = ["Red", "Blue", "Green", "Blu...

A function can optionally declare a set of parameters: func SayHelloToMe(firstName, lastName string, age int) { fmt.Printf("Hello, %s %s!\n", firstName, lastName) fmt.Printf("You are %d", age) } Notice that the type for firstName is omitted because it is identical ...

A function can return one or more values to the caller: func AddAndMultiply(a, b int) (int, int) { return a+b, a*b } The second return value can also be the error var : import errors func Divide(dividend, divisor int) (int, error) { if divisor == 0 { return 0, errors.New(...

Return values can be assigned to a local variable. An empty return statement can then be used to return their current values. This is known as "naked" return. Naked return statements should be used only in short functions as they harm readability in longer functions: func Inverse(v float3...

Struct methods are very similar to functions: type User struct { name string } func (u User) Name() string { return u.name } func (u *User) SetName(newName string) { u.name = newName } The only difference is the addition of the method receiver. It may be declared either a...

There are several PHP functions that accept user-defined callback functions as a parameter, such as: call_user_func(), usort() and array_map(). Depending on where the user-defined callback function was defined there are different ways to pass them: Procedural style: function square($number) { ...

Static methods and properties are defined on the class/constructor itself, not on instance objects. These are specified in a class definition by using the static keyword. class MyClass { static myStaticMethod() { return 'Hello'; } static get myStaticProperty() { r...
