Given that the function has a proper prototype, integers are widened for calls to functions according to the rules of integer conversion, C11 6.3.1.3. 6.3.1.3 Signed and unsigned integers When a value with integer type is converted to another integer type other than _Bool, if the value can be r...

Pointer conversions to void* are implicit, but any other pointer conversion must be explicit. While the compiler allows an explicit conversion from any pointer-to-data type to any other pointer-to-data type, accessing an object through a wrongly typed pointer is erroneous and leads to undefined beh...

This example wraps the asynchronous method oauth2.client.getToken(callback) from the package NPM package simple-oauth2into a Fiber so that the method may be called synchronously. const oauth2 = require('simple-oauth2')(credentials); const credentials = { clientID: '#####', clientSecret...

String#replace can have a function as its second argument so you can provide a replacement based on some logic. "Some string Some".replace(/Some/g, (match, startIndex, wholeString) => { if(startIndex == 0){ return 'Start'; } else { return 'End'; } }); // will retur...

Functions have two built-in methods that allow the programmer to supply arguments and the this variable differently: call and apply. This is useful, because functions that operate on one object (the object that they are a property of) can be repurposed to operate on another, compatible object. Addi...

The effect of using the * operator on an argument when calling a function is that of unpacking the list or a tuple argument def print_args(arg1, arg2): print(str(arg1) + str(arg2)) a = [1,2] b = tuple([3,4]) print_args(*a) # 12 print_args(*b) # 34 Note that the length of the starr...

Since PHP7, it is possible to bind a closure just for one call, thanks to the call method. For instance: <?php class MyClass { private $property; public function __construct($propertyValue) { $this->property = $propertyValue; } } $myClosure = function() ...

assert ['cat', 'dog', 'fish']*.length() == [3, 3, 4] Note that when mixing types in the collection if the method not exists on some of the elements, a groovy.lang.MissingMethodException could be thrown: ['cat', 'dog', 'fish',3]*.length() // it throws groovy.lang.MissingMethodException: No sign...

Just use your local git repository as a normal git repo, with the normal git commands: git add FILE and git checkout -- FILE To stage/unstage a file git commit To save your changes. Those commits will be local and will not be "pushed" to the SVN repo, just like in a normal git reposito...

Add one common horizontal line for all categorical variables # sample data df <- data.frame(x=('A', 'B'), y = c(3, 4)) p1 <- ggplot(df, aes(x=x, y=y)) + geom_bar(position = "dodge", stat = 'identity') + theme_bw() p1 + geom_hline(aes(yintercept=5), colour=...

The apply and call methods in every function allow it to provide a custom value for this. function print() { console.log(this.toPrint); } print.apply({ toPrint: "Foo" }); // >> "Foo" print.call({ toPrint: "Foo" }); // >> "Foo" You mig...

Sometimes it might be necessary to manually promisify a callback function. This could be for a case where the callback does not follow the standard error-first format or if additional logic is needed to promisify: Example with fs.exists(path, callback): var fs = require('fs'); var existsAsync =...

Callbacks offer a way to extend the functionality of a function (or method) without changing its code. This approach is often used in modules (libraries / plugins), the code of which is not supposed to be changed. Suppose we have written the following function, calculating the sum of a given array ...

The term 'heap' is a general computing term meaning an area of memory from which portions can be allocated and deallocated independently of the memory provided by the stack. In C++ the Standard refers to this area as the Free Store which is considered a more accurate term. Areas of memory allocate...

generate sample data frames: In [57]: df3 = pd.DataFrame({'col1':[211,212,213], 'col2': [221,222,223]}) In [58]: df1 = pd.DataFrame({'col1':[11,12,13], 'col2': [21,22,23]}) In [59]: df2 = pd.DataFrame({'col1':[111,112,113], 'col2': [121,122,123]}) In [60]: df3 = pd.DataFrame({'col1':[211,2...

This is a normal function call: console.log("Hello World!"); When you call a normal function, it does its job and then returns control back to the caller. However, sometimes a function needs to return control back to the caller in order to do its job: [1,2,3].map(function double(x) {...

Dart has a robust async library, with Future, Stream, and more. However, sometimes you might run into an asynchronous API that uses callbacks instead of Futures. To bridge the gap between callbacks and Futures, Dart offers the Completer class. You can use a Completer to convert a callback into a Fut...

From Apple documentation: Use the CTCallCenter class to obtain a list of current cellular calls, and to respond to state changes for calls such as from a dialing state to a connected state. Such state changes are known as cellular call events. The purpose of CTCallCenter is to give the develop...

// Example of raw dynamic size array. It's generally better to use std::vector. #include <algorithm> // std::sort #include <iostream> using namespace std; auto int_from( istream& in ) -> int { int x; in >> x; return x; } auto main() -> int { ...
