You can use Scanner to read all of the text in the input as a String, by using \Z (entire input) as the delimiter. For example, this can be used to read all text in a text file in one line: String content = new Scanner(new File("filename")).useDelimiter("\\Z").next(); System.o...

print_r() - Outputting Arrays and Objects for debugging print_r will output a human readable format of an array or object. You may have a variable that is an array or object. Trying to output it with an echo will throw the error: Notice: Array to string conversion. You can instead use the print_r...

123.5.to_s #=> "123.5" String(123.5) #=> "123.5" Usually, String() will just call #to_s. Methods Kernel#sprintf and String#% behave similar to C: sprintf("%s", 123.5) #=> "123.5" "%s" % 123.5 #=> "123.5" "%d&quot...

"123.50".to_i #=> 123 Integer("123.50") #=> 123 A string will take the value of any integer at its start, but will not take integers from anywhere else: "123-foo".to_i # => 123 "foo-123".to_i # => 0 However, there is a difference when ...

"123.50".to_f #=> 123.5 Float("123.50") #=> 123.5 However, there is a difference when the string is not a valid Float: "something".to_f #=> 0.0 Float("something") # ArgumentError: invalid value for Float(): "something"

Python 2.x2.3 In Python 2.x, to continue a line with print, end the print statement with a comma. It will automatically add a space. print "Hello,", print "World!" # Hello, World! Python 3.x3.0 In Python 3.x, the print function has an optional end parameter that is what...

Python's string type provides many functions that act on the capitalization of a string. These include : str.casefold str.upper str.lower str.capitalize str.title str.swapcase With unicode strings (the default in Python 3), these operations are not 1:1 mappings or reversible. Most of thes...

str.split(sep=None, maxsplit=-1) str.split takes a string and returns a list of substrings of the original string. The behavior differs depending on whether the sep argument is provided or omitted. If sep isn't provided, or is None, then the splitting takes place wherever there is whitespace. Howe...

Python provides string interpolation and formatting functionality through the str.format function, introduced in version 2.6 and f-strings introduced in version 3.6. Given the following variables: i = 10 f = 1.5 s = "foo" l = ['a', 1, 2] d = {'a': 1, 2: 'foo'} The following statem...

One method is available for counting the number of occurrences of a sub-string in another string, str.count. str.count(sub[, start[, end]]) str.count returns an int indicating the number of non-overlapping occurrences of the sub-string sub in another string. The optional arguments start and end ...

# First falsy element or last element if all are truthy: reduce(lambda i, j: i and j, [100, [], 20, 10]) # = [] reduce(lambda i, j: i and j, [100, 50, 20, 10]) # = 10 # First truthy element or last element if all falsy: reduce(lambda i, j: i or j, [100, [], 20, 0]) # = 100 reduce(la...

In order to test the beginning and ending of a given string in Python, one can use the methods str.startswith() and str.endswith(). str.startswith(prefix[, start[, end]]) As it's name implies, str.startswith is used to test whether a given string starts with the given characters in prefix. >...

Python's str type also features a number of methods that can be used to evaluate the contents of a string. These are str.isalpha, str.isdigit, str.isalnum, str.isspace. Capitalization can be tested with str.isupper, str.islower and str.istitle. str.isalpha str.isalpha takes no arguments and retu...

git rev-list --oneline master ^origin/master Git rev-list will list commits in one branch that are not in another branch. It is a great tool when you're trying to figure out if code has been merged into a branch or not. Using the --oneline option will display the title of each commit. The ^ ...

astring = 'thisisashorttext' astring.count('t') # Out: 4 This works even for substrings longer than one character: astring.count('th') # Out: 1 astring.count('is') # Out: 2 astring.count('text') # Out: 1 which would not be possible with collections.Counter which only counts single char...

Python 3.2+ has support for %z format when parsing a string into a datetime object. UTC offset in the form +HHMM or -HHMM (empty string if the object is naive). Python 3.x3.2 import datetime dt = datetime.datetime.strptime("2016-04-15T08:27:18-0500", "%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%S%z"...

A std::vector can be initialized in several ways while declaring it: C++11 std::vector<int> v{ 1, 2, 3 }; // v becomes {1, 2, 3} // Different from std::vector<int> v(3, 6) std::vector<int> v{ 3, 6 }; // v becomes {3, 6} // Different from std::vector<int> v{3, ...
