Setting values Using Unicode directly var str: String = "I want to visit 北京, Москва, मुंबई, القاهرة, and 서울시. 😊" var character: Character = "🌍" Using hexadecimal values var str: String = "\u{61}\u{5927}\u{1F34E}\u{3C0}" // a大🍎π var character: Character = &quo...

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...

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 }, ...

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...

Modal views completely capture the user’s attention until a task is complete. iOS clarifies this to users by dimming and disabling all other content when a modal view, such as an alert or popover, is visible. An app that implements a custom modal interface needs to hint to VoiceOver that this view d...

1.8 You can remove a submodule (e.g. the_submodule) by calling: $ git submodule deinit the_submodule $ git rm the_submodule git submodule deinit the_submodule deletes the_submodules' entry from .git/config. This excludes the_submodule from git submodule update, git submodule sync and git ...

Closures are often used for asynchronous tasks, for example when fetching data from a website. 3.0 func getData(urlString: String, callback: (result: NSData?) -> Void) { // Turn the URL string into an NSURLRequest. guard let url = NSURL(string: urlString) else { return } let re...

URL url = new URL("http://example.com"); HttpURLConnection connection = (HttpURLConnection) url.openConnection(); try { BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(connection.getInputStream())); // use a string builder to bufferize the response body //...

The return type of a method can depend on the type of the parameter. In this example, x is the parameter, A is the type of x, which is known as the type parameter. def f[A](x: A): A = x f(1) // 1 f("two") // "two" f[Float](3) // 3.0F Scala will use type infe...

Code first allows you to create your entities (classes) without using a GUI designer or a .edmx file. It is named Code first, because you can create your models first and Entity framework will create database according to mappings for you automatically. Or you can also use this approach with existin...

Python 2.x2.7 In Python 2 there are two variants of string: those made of bytes with type (str) and those made of text with type (unicode). In Python 2, an object of type str is always a byte sequence, but is commonly used for both text and binary data. A string literal is interpreted as a byte s...

While using scaffolding is a fast and easy if you are new to Rails or you are creating a new application, later it can be useful just to do it on your own ato avoid the need to go through the scaffold-generated code to slim it down (remove unused parts, etc.). Creating a model can be as simple as c...

Ruby on Rails provides a model generator you can use to create ActiveRecord models. Simply use rails generate model and provide the model name. $ rails g model user In addition to the model file in app/models, the generator will also create: the Test in test/models/user_test.rb the Fixtures ...

With any variadic function, the function must know how to interpret the variable arguments list. With the printf() or scanf() functions, the format string tells the function what to expect. The simplest technique is to pass an explicit count of the other arguments (which are normally all the same ...

Module serves as a container of different parts of your app such as controllers, services, filters, directives, etc. Modules can be referenced by other modules through Angular's dependency injection mechanism. Creating a module: angular .module('app', []); Array [] passed in above example ...

The static (compile-time) type is used rather than the dynamic (run-time type) to match parameters. public class Base { public virtual string GetName() { return "Base"; } } public class Derived : Base { public override string GetName() { ...

Eloquent is the ORM built into the Laravel framework. It allows you to interact with your database tables in an object-oriented manner, by use of the ActiveRecord pattern. A single model class usually maps to a single database table, and also relationships of different types (one-to-one, one-to-man...

// You need a writable database to insert data final SQLiteDatabase database = openHelper.getWritableDatabase(); // Create a ContentValues instance which contains the data for each column // You do not need to specify a value for the PRIMARY KEY column. // Unique values for these are automatic...

A module is a file containing Python definitions and statements. Function is a piece of code which execute some logic. >>> pow(2,3) #8 To check the built in function in python we can use dir(). If called without an argument, return the names in the current scope. Else, return an alph...

The Dim statement should be reserved for local variables. At module-level, prefer explicit access modifiers: Private for private fields, which can only be accessed within the module they're declared in. Public for public fields and global variables, which can be accessed by any calling code. Fr...
