An ordered list can be created with the <ol> tag and each list item can be created with the <li> tag as in the example below: <ol> <li>Item</li> <li>Another Item</li> <li>Yet Another Item</li> </ol> This will produce a numbere...

Here's a standalone random number generator that doesn't rely on rand() or similar library functions. Why would you want such a thing? Maybe you don't trust your platform's builtin random number generator, or maybe you want a reproducible source of randomness independent of any particular library ...

> redirect the standard output (aka STDOUT) of the current command into a file or another descriptor. These examples write the output of the ls command into the file file.txt ls >file.txt > file.txt ls The target file is created if it doesn't exists, otherwise this file is truncated. ...

< reads from its right argument and writes to its left argument. To write a file into STDIN we should read /tmp/a_file and write into STDIN i.e 0</tmp/a_file Note: Internal file descriptor defaults to 0 (STDIN) for < $ echo "b" > /tmp/list.txt $ echo "a" >> ...

File descriptors like 0 and 1 are pointers. We change what file descriptors point to with redirection. >/dev/null means 1 points to /dev/null. First we point 1 (STDOUT) to /dev/null then point 2 (STDERR) to whatever 1 points to. # STDERR is redirect to STDOUT: redirected to /dev/null, # effect...

2 is STDERR. $ echo_to_stderr 2>/dev/null # echos nothing Definitions: echo_to_stderr is a command that writes "stderr" to STDERR echo_to_stderr () { echo stderr >&2 } $ echo_to_stderr stderr

A simple two-column layout consists of two fixed-width, floated elements. Note that the sidebar and content area are not the same height in this example. This is one of the tricky parts with multi-column layouts using floats, and requires workarounds to make multiple columns appear to be the same he...

This uses the Dropbox Python SDK to download a file from the Dropbox API at the remote path /Homework/math/Prime_Numbers.txt to the local file Prime_Numbers.txt: import dropbox dbx = dropbox.Dropbox("<ACCESS_TOKEN>") with open("Prime_Numbers.txt", "wb") as f:...
