Landlord-Tenant
Ask a landlord-tenant lawyer and get answers ASAP
If she sells the unit, your landlord will be the buyer.
Your rights as tenants will remain the same as they do with your current landlord.
If you have a term lease (12 months, 6 months, etc.) you can remain there until the end of that term.
If you do not have a "term lease" (12 months, 6 months, etc.), and are on some form of "month to month" lease (holdover tenancy, tenancy at will, tenancy at sufferance - these terms used to have a significance, they are now used interchangably as "month to month" tenants)., your new landlord can terminate your lease with 60 days notice.
You are entitled to the return of your security deposit just as you were before. Except now, you can hold both the new landlord and the old landlord responsible for that return (if the new landlord claims they don't have it, you can sue both of them).

Understanding Of Class And Instance Variables In Python 3
In this video tutorial, we are going to cover classes and instance variables. But, before you are going to watch a video we would highly recommend to read through all of this article. And if you have not watched a perverse part then we recommend to watch it now as you will be lost in this part.
Introduction
We move on to one of the most interesting topics of the cycle – object-oriented programming (OOP) in Python 3. From the point of view of OOP, a class is a collection of data. The use of classes gives us first of all the advantages of an abstract approach to programming.
- Polymorphism: in different objects, the same operation can perform different functions. The word “polymorphism” is of Greek nature and means “having many forms”. A simple example of polymorphism is the function count (), which performs the same action for different types of objects: ‘abc’.count (‘ a ‘) and [1, 2,’ a ‘]. Count (‘ a ‘). The operator plus is polymorphic when adding numbers and adding lines.
- Encapsulation: you can hide the unnecessary internal details of the object from the outside world. This is the second basic principle of abstraction. It is based on the use of attributes within the class. Attributes can have different states in between calls to class methods, as a result of which the object of this class also receives different states – state.
- Inheritance: You can create custom classes based on the base classes. This allows us to avoid writing a re-code.
- Composition: an object can be composite and include other objects.
The object-oriented approach in programming implies the following algorithm of actions.
- The problem is described using a conventional language using concepts, actions, and adjectives.
- Classes are formulated on the basis of concepts.
- On the basis of actions, methods are designed.
- Methods and attributes are implemented.
We got a skeleton – an object model. On the basis of this model, inheritance is realized. To check the model:
- so-called use cases are written – a scenario of possible behavior of the model, where all functionality is checked;
- The functionality can be fixed or added.
The object-oriented approach is good where the project implies long-term development, consists of a large number of libraries and internal links.
The Python class mechanism is a mixture of the C ++ and Modula-3 classes.
The most important features of classes in python:
- Multiple inheritances;
- A derived class can override any base class methods;
- Anywhere you can call a method with the same base class name;
- All the attributes of the class in the python are public by default, i.e. are available from everywhere; all methods are virtual; overload the base.
Today we will consider the following aspects of object-oriented programming.
- What is a class?
- Attributes of the class.
- Self.
- Inheritance.
- Video Tutoring.
1. What is the class?
A class is a custom type. The simplest model for defining a class is as follows:
class class_name: Instruction 1 . Instruction No.
Each such record generates its own class object. The difference from C ++ is that in the pluses the class description is just an ad, and in a python, it’s an object creation. There is also another type of object – the instance of the class that is generated when you call:
instance_class = class_name ()
The class object and the class instance are two different objects. The first one is generated at the stage of the class declaration, the second one is called when the class name is called. The object of the class can be one, the instances of the class can be any number.
The instruction is, as a rule, the definition of a function. When defining a class, a new namespace is created and a class object is created that is the wrapper for all instructions.
Class objects support two types of operations:
- access to attributes;
- create an instance of the class.
2. Attributes of the class
Attributes of the class are of two types:
- data attributes;
- attribute-methods.
Data attributes are usually written from above. The memory for attributes is allocated at the time of their first assignment – either outside or inside the method. Methods start with the def.
Attributes are accessed by obj.attrname.
For Instance:
class Simple: u'Simple Class' var = 87 def f(x): return 'Hello world'
Here Simple.var and Simple.f are user attributes. There are also standard attributes:
>>> print Simple.__doc__
Integer
>>> print Simple.var.__doc__ int(x[, base]) -> integer ...
Creating an instance of a class is similar to the way we do a function call:
smpl = Simple()
An empty small object will be created. If we want some actions to be performed during the creation, we need to define a constructor that will be called automatically:
class Simple: def __init__(self): self.list = []
When the sample object is created, an empty list will be created. You can pass arguments to the constructor:
class Simple: def __init__(self, count, str): self.list = [] self.count = count self.str = str >>> s = Simple(1,'22') >>> s.count, s.str 1 22
The data attribute can be made private (i.e. inaccessible from the outside – for this you need to put two underscores on the left:
class Simple: u'A simple class with a private attribute' __private_attr = 10 def __init__(self, count, str): self.__private_attr = 20 print self.__private_attr s = Simple(1,'22') print s.__private_attr
The last line will throw an exception – the __private_attr attribute is only valid for internal use.
Methods need not be defined inside the class body:
def method_for_simple(self, x, y): return x + y class Simple: f = method_for_simple >>> s = Simple() >>> print s.f(1,2) 3
An empty class can be used as a blank for a data structure:
class Customer: pass custom = Customer() custom.name = 'Alex' custom.salary = 100000
3. Self
Usually, the first argument to the method name is self. As the author of Guido Van Rossum says, this is nothing more than an agreement: the name of self-has absolutely no special meaning.
self is useful for accessing other class attributes:
class Simple: def __init__(self): self.list = [] def f1(self): self.list.append(123) def f2(self): self.f1() >>> s = Simple() >>> s.f2() >>> print s.list [123]
4. Inheritance
The definition of a derived class is as follows:
class Derived(Base):
If the base class is not defined in the current module:
class Derived(module_name.Base):
The resolution of attribute names works from the top down: if the attribute is not found in the current class, the search continues in the base class, and so on by recursion. Derived classes can override the methods of base classes – all methods are virtual in this sense. You can call the base class method with the prefix:
Base.method()
In the python, there is limited support for multiple inheritances:
class Derived(Base1,Base2,Base3):
The attribute search is performed in the following order:
- in Derived;
- in Base1, then recursively in the base classes Base1;
- in Base2, then recursively in the Base2 base classes
- etc.

As well as the stack there are local variables, data structures and fields.
But notice that in principle you can write any program using just the stack.
For example to declare local variable called Total you would add:
.locals init(float32 Total)
The “init” is a modifier that indicates that the variables have to be initialised before use.
To load the result of the addition you have to use:
stloc Totalldloc Total
before the call to WriteLine.
The instruction stloc, i.e. Store to Local, pops the top of the stack into Total. You need the ldloc instruction, i.e. LoaD from Local, to push the value back on the stack so that the WriteLine can use it.
It is more common to work with local variables just in terms of the index number. For example:
.locals init([0] float32 Total)
Defines Total to be local varible zero and you can load it onto the stack using any of:
ldloc.0 ldloc 0 ldloc Total
Using a static object isn’t really the same thing as taking a full object-oriented approach – it’s just a way of writing a main program.
This next example is intended to give you an idea of the full extent of IL’s object facilities. Start a new program called Arith.il. First we have the usual declarations followed by a public class definition:
.assembly extern mscorlib {}.assembly Arith{}.module Arith.exe.class public Arith{ .method public specialname void .ctor() { ret } .method public float32 Add(float32,float32) { ldarg.1 ldarg.2 add ret }}
The class has two methods .ctor which is its constructor – which does nothing in this case - and Add.
The Add method pushes its two parameters on the stack, using ldarg.n, adds them and leaves the result on the stack.
To try this class and its Add method out we use the static Main method again:
.class Test.Programextends [mscorlib]System.Object{ .method static void Main(string[] args) cil managed { .entrypoint newobj instance void Arith::.ctor() ldc.r4 0.1 ldc.r4 0.2 call instance float32 Arith::Add(float32,float32) call void [mscorlib]System.Console:: WriteLine(float32) ret }}
The newobj instruction creates an instance of the class and calls its creator, .ctor(). The result of newobj is a pointer to the instance stored on the top of the stack.
Now we can load the stack with two parameter values and call the instance of Add.
Notice that the instance of the class that is called is determined by the first argument, i.e. arg0, passed to the method. You can think of this as a “this” reference and note that instance methods have to explicitly use it to work with instance fields. If you assemble this program you will discover that it adds two numbers together as before.
IL supports instance and static methods and fields. It supports virtual and non-virtual methods and inheritance but this is beyond the scope of this introduction.
Once you have the idea of the way that the object-oriented, strongly typed aspects of IL interact with the fact that it is a stack-oriented assembler you should find it easier to understand the documentation.
You can find some very dry technical definitions of how it all works at:
ECMA C# and Common Language Infrastructure Standards
Another good way of learning IL is to use the ILdasm tool, which you will find in the same directory as ILasm. This can be used to disassemble .NET programs and it provides lots of clues as to how the compilers use IL.

This example uses a local installation of Quantum Espresso. Without such installation you will not be able to execute this tutorial. However, you can still read it and lern from it. The "Remote execution" tutorial contains similar material and is configured for remote execution of Quantum Espresso.
To use the
qeutil system you need to do three things first.
The
qeutil library is built as an extension to the ASE library. Many of the presented functions depend on the functionality of the
ASE library. Thus, it is highly recommended to familiarize yourself with its structure and function. The full documentation is available on the web.
During working out the examples pay attention to the comments in the code, which start with the "#" character and continue to the end of the line. They are added for your convenience - to provide detailed descriptions of the procedure.
The whole notebook system is written in the python language. You do not need high-level knowledge of the languade to understand the tutorials. However, some familiarity with its syntax is still required. Introduction to the python language may be found in the Help menu, if you need it. Please note that the indentation in the python code is important. The blocks of code are defined by the common indentation.
This notebook is presented as a read-only document as linked from the main site. In the top-right corner of the page there is a "Download" link. To work on this exercise download the file from the link into your notebook directory and open it as the iPython notebook.
This part is a little bit more complicated. This notebook is configured for a local execution of the Quantum Espresso programs. The qe-util has some support for the remote execution with a help of the queue management system. This topic is covered by the second notebook named "Remote calculation".
For this exercise just review the configuration in the second cell and verify that the commands actually execute the Quantum-Espresso programs.
The following notebook includes a minimal set of libraries required for it to run (see the first cell of this notebook). You may need additional libraries if you extend the analysis presented below. It is as easy as adding additional 'import' clauses at the beginning.
# library for local execution of the Quantum Espresso on four processors. The commands should execute the following programs from the Quantum Espresso package:
pw.xthe basic program for calculating electronic structure and basic static properties of the crystal such as:
ph.xthe program for calculating the a second derivative of the energy with respect to atomic displacements or unit cell deformations.
matdyn.xthe program for processing dynamical matrix of the crystal.
q2r.xthe program for the transformation of the dynamical matrix into a matrix of force constants in real space.
The commands should execute the
pw.x program of the Quantum Espresso suite using
pw.in and
pw.out files as input and output respectively. The example below is a fairly standard command for running the
pw.x on the four-core PC.
# Configure qe-util for local execution of the Quantum Espresso on four processors QuantumEspresso.pw_cmd='mpiexec -n 4 pw.x < pw.in > pw axes are oriented in the conventional way in the Cartesian (X,Y,Z) coordinate system:=30) # Scale of the picture # Display the image Image(filename='crystal.png')
Check the spacegroup (symmetry) of our creation. The
spglib library provides various functions dealing with the symmetry of crystals. For example, it has a symmetry finder, which can identify the symmetry group of the crystal. Here, we use this function to check if the structure we have created is indeed a zinc-blende cubic crystal (F-43m group).
print 'Space group:', spglib.get_spacegroup(cryst)
Space group: F-43m (216)
Calculator¶
Now, when we have our crystal build we need to define a
Calculator for our computations. It is done by creation of
QuantumEspresso object, specifying various parameters for the calculation. The same calculator may be used for a number of structures and a number of computations. It is a provider of functions which allow the crystal object to respond to questions such as: "What is your total energy?". You need to specify a number of parameters for the calculator which are specific to the case. The parameters used here should not be used in the production runs. They are defined just for the presentation purposes. For a real calculation you need to select the parameters according to the case you are dealing with. Unfortunately there is no simple "rule of thumb" for these parameters. The list of possible parameters covers a fairly complete set of parameters used by Quantum Espresso package. For the description of possible parameters you need to consult the documentation on the Quantum Espresso website, particularly the document describing input parameters
The meaning of the parameters in greater detail:
label-- This is a label for the calculator. It is used as a first part of the directory name used by the calculator to store and execute the calculations.
kpts-- A list of k-vectors for the sampling of the Brillouin zone. Here it is specified as a grid size (n x m x k) which is a typical approach. It may be also specified as a list of k-vectors
xc,
pp_type,
pp_format -- These are the parts of the name of the used pseudopotentials. The pseudopotential name is constructed as:
(
Element_symbol)(
xc)(
pp_type).(
pp_format)
ecutwfc-- Cut-off energy (in Ry) for the plane waves used in the calculation. This needs to be adjusted according to the pseudopotential used.
use_symmetry-- Controls use of symmetry in the calculation. If set to True the calculator will internally extract a primitive unit cell out of the crystal and perform all calculations on the primitive unit cell.
# Create a Quantum Espresso calculator for our work. # This object encapsulates all parameters of the calculation, # not the system we are investigating. qe=QuantumEspresso(label='SiC', # Label for calculations wdir='calc', # Working directory pseudo_dir='../../pspot', # Directory with pseudopotentials kpts=[8,8,8], # K-space sampling for the SCF calculation xc='pz', # Exchange functional type in the name of the pseudopotentials pp_type='vbc', # Variant of the pseudopotential pp_format='UPF', # Format of the pseudopotential files ecutwfc=70, # Energy cut-off (in Rydberg) use_symmetry=True) # Use symmetry in the calculation ? # Check where the calculation files will reside. print qe.directory
calc/SiC.mjVUKG
# Assign the calculator to our system cryst.set_calculator(qe)
We are ready to perform our first Quantum Espresso calculation. It is as simple as asking the crystal for its energy or stress tensor.
You just need to call an appropriate function: e.g.
cryst.get_stress()
The calculation may take some time (5-30s, depending on your system). Be patient.
Note 1: The default notation for stress tensors used here is a Voigt notation. Where the independent components of a symmetric stress tensor $\sigma$ are collected into a 6-component quantity (note: it is not a vector in the tensor analysis sense). This is a common notation in the tensor algebra of symmetric tensors. The components of the stress tensor in the Voigt notation are: $$ [\sigma_{xx}, \sigma_{yy}, \sigma_{zz}, \sigma_{yz}, \sigma_{xz}, \sigma_{yz}] $$
Note 2: The convention for signs of external pressure is opposite to the sign of stress.
Note 3: In case of the interrupted calculation it is easy to recover from such a crash by adding
recover = .true. to the input file.
# Run the calculation to get stress tensor (Voigt notation, in eV/A^3) and pressure (in kBar) print "Stress tensor (Voigt notation eV/A^3):", cryst.get_stress() print "External pressure (kBar):", cryst.get_isotropic_pressure(cryst.get_stress())*1e-3
Stress tensor (Voigt notation eV/A^3): [ 0.02404228 0.02404228 0.02404228 -0. 0. 0. ] External pressure (kBar): -38.52
#.852 3.852 3.852 -0. 0. 0. ] Stress tensor (Tensor notation, GPa): [[ 3.852 0. 0. ] [ 0. 3.852 -0. ] [ 0. -0. 3.852]] External pressure (GPa): -3.852
One of the advantages of this system is that you can run a series of calculations automatically, as is illustrated below. For example we can find a minimum of energy of our crystal - which is its equilibrium lattice constant. To do this it is needed to modify the crystal at each turn of the loop and collect the results. Alternatively you can create a whole bunch of systems and calculators and run them all at once. If you have many CPUs this may considerably speed up the calculation. Here we will do a sequential run. The topic of parallel execution will be covered in the "Remote calculation" notebook.
# A sequential run for a series of lattice constants # We will store the results in this list result=[] # Our prototype crystal is just a copy of the structure defined above cr=Atoms(cryst) # It needs a calculator as well. This may be the same calculator or we can define a separate one. cr.set_calculator(qe) print " Scale A(A) Energy(eV) Pressure(GPa) " print "===============================================" # Iterate over scales between 98% and 102% of the starting unit cell size. # We use 11 points in the interval for x in linspace(0.98,1.02,11): # Modify the crystal by scaling the lattice vectors cr.set_cell(cryst.get_cell()*x,scale_atoms=True) # Calculate energy and stress and store the results in the result list result.append([x, x*cryst.get_cell()[0,0], cr.get_potential_energy(), 1e-4*cr.get_isotropic_pressure(cr.get_stress())]) # Print it as well print "% 5.03f % 6.04f %+6.4f % +8.3f " % tuple(result[-1]) # Prepare the collected data for plotting # This will make an array (matrix) out of a list and transpose it for easier access later # Transposing the matrix means that we can specify just a column to get the whole column as a vector. result=array(result).T # Let us save our calculated data to a file. # To have data in columns we need to transpose the array again. # This is a consequence of the row-column conventions and has no deeper meaning. savetxt('e+p-vs-a.dat',result.T)

All plotting in the notebook environment is done by the matplotlib graphics library. It is a very flexible and useful tool for scientific plotting. You will find an extensive documentation on the web. It is linked in the "Help" menu above. Below we will plot the energy and stress curves and find the lattice constant corresponding to the zero stress (minimum energy).
# Let us plot the results and save the figure figsize(12,7) # To make the plot nicer we define a shift to energy. # Rounding to second decimal digit in eV E0=round(min(result[2])-(max(result[2])-min(result[2]))/20,2) # Plot the result plot(result[1], # Arguments (x-axis) result[2]-E0, # Values (y-axis) 'o-', # Symbol and line style label='Total internal energy') legend() # Add a legend # Set the axes labels xlabel('Lattice vector length ($\AA$)') ylabel('Energy %+8.2f (eV)' % (-E0)) # Store the figure savefig('e-vs-a.pdf')
Below we will fit the Birch-Murnaghan logarithmic equation of state to our lattice constant-pressure data to find:
The Birch-Murnaghan equation of state has a following form:
$$ P(V)=\frac{B_0}{B'_0} \left[\left(\frac{V_0}{V}\right)^{B'_0}-1\right] $$
To fit this formula to our data points we use a standard least-squares non-linear optimization procedure
leastsq from the
optimize module of the
SciPy library. The documentation for this library is also included in the "Help" menu.

In Asciidoctor we can add an anchor with an ID to a section or title and then reference it in a link. The title of the section is used as link text. We can alter that when we define the link, but if we rely on the default behaviour we create a title for our section including the caption label and number. This way the created link points to the correct section and the text contains the caption text and number for that section.
In the following example markup we can see how we can use the caption label and section counter as attributes in the title. We do this with the
title attribute of a section. By using the single quotes we tell Asciidoctor to interpret the attributes. We must also make sure we set the
caption attribute to an empty string value. This disables the default caption creation of Asciidoctor for our section. Finally we need to provide an ID for the section using the
#ID syntax:
= Code examples // Enable the captions for listing blocks. :listing-caption: Listing == Creating an application To create a simple Ratpack application we write the following code: // Our listing block has an id of SimpleJavaApp, // so we can reference it as a link. // The link text is the title of this listing block. // We use the listing caption support of Asciidoctor // in our title with the attributes listing-caption // and counter:refnum. The value of listing-caption // is defined with a document attribute (Listing) // and counter:refnum contains the counter value // for listing blocks. // Finally we empty the caption attribute, otherwise // the default caption rule is used to show Level {counter}. [#SimpleJavaApp,source,java,caption='',title='{listing-caption} {counter:refnum}. Simple Java Ratpack application'] ---- package com.mrhaki; import ratpack.server.RatpackServer; public class Main { public static void main(String... args) throws Exception { RatpackServer.start(server -> server .handlers(chain -> chain .get(ctx -> ctx.render("Hello World!")))); } } ---- // A second section also with an ID // and custom caption and title attributes. [#SimpleGroovyApp,source,groovy,caption='',title='{listing-caption} {counter:refnum}. Simple Groovy Ratpack application'] ---- package com.mrhaki import static ratpack.groovy.Groovy.ratpack ratpack { handlers { get { render "Hello World!" } } } ---- // In these paragraphs we create a link to the sections with // id's SimpleJavaApp and SimpleGroovyApp. The text of the links // will be Listing 1. Simple Java Ratpack application and // Listing 2. Simple Groovy Ratpack application. As we can see in <<SimpleJavaApp>> the code is simple. The configuration of the Ratpack application is done using a series of methods. With the Groovy code in <<SimpleGroovyApp>> we can use a DSL to define the application. This results in even better readable code.
When we generate a HTML version of this markup we get the following result:

ASP.NET Data Access Overview
Web applications commonly access data sources for storage and retrieval of dynamic data. You can write code to access data using classes from the System.Data namespace (commonly referred to as ADO.NET) and from the System.Xml namespace. This approach was common in previous versions of ASP.NET.
However, ASP.NET also enables you to perform data binding declaratively. This requires no code at all for the most common data scenarios, including:
Selecting and displaying data.
Sorting, paging, and caching data.

Filtering data using run-time parameters.
Creating master-detail scenarios using parameters.
ASP.NET includes two types of server controls that participate in the declarative data binding model: data source controls and data-bound controls. These controls manage the underlying tasks required by the stateless Web model for displaying and updating data in ASP.NET Web pages. As a result, you are not required to understand details of the page request lifecycle just to perform data binding.
Data Source Controls
Data source controls are ASP.NET controls that manage the tasks of connecting to a data source and reading and writing data. Data source controls do not render any user interface, but instead act as an intermediary between a particular data store (such as a database, business object, or XML file) and other controls on the ASP.NET Web page. Data source controls enable rich capabilities for retrieving and modifying data, including querying, sorting, paging, filtering, updating, deleting, and inserting. ASP.NET includes the following data source controls:
Data-source controls can also be extended to support additional data access storage providers.
For more information on data source controls, see Data Source Controls Overview.
Data-bound Controls
Data-bound controls render data as markup to the requesting browser. A data-bound control can bind to a data source control and automatically fetch data at the appropriate time in the page request lifecycle. Data-bound controls can take advantage of the capabilities provided by a data source control including sorting, paging, caching, filtering, updating, deleting, and inserting. A data-bound control connects to a data source control through its DataSourceID property.
ASP.NET includes the data-bound controls described in the following table.
- List Controls
Renders data in a variety of lists format..
- DataList
Renders data in a table. Each item is rendered using an item template that you define.
For more information see the DataList Web Server Control.
- DetailsView
Displays one record at a time in a tabular layout and enables you to edit, delete, and insert records. You can also page through multiple records.
For more information see the DetailsView Web Server Control.
- FormView
Similar to the DetailsView control, but enables you to define a free-form layout for each record. The FormView control is like a DataList control for a single record.
For more information, see FormView Web Server Control.
- GridView
Displays data in a table and includes support for editing, updating, sorting, and paging data without requiring code.
For more information, see Grid.

Drilldowns Plugin
Dependency:
compile ":drilldowns:1.6"
Summary
Description
Drilldowns Plugin
DescriptionThe drilldowns plugin allows a user to drill down from a summary level screen to a more detailed level. For example, from a list of authors to a list of books by the selected author. It works by controller and action - usually the 'list' action. Each controller/action combination may only appear once within the drilldown stack, whether as the 'drill from' list or the 'drill to' list. Any list page can be both a 'drill from' and a 'drill to' page thus allowing the creation of the 'stack' of drilldowns.
InstallationExecute the following from your application directory:
The installation process copies two files (drilldown.png and drillup.png) to the images directory of your application overwriting any files of the same name.
grails install-plugin drilldowns
UsageThe components of the plugin are in a package called org.grails.plugins.drilldown and any class that wishes to access the components directly must include the following:
In a 'drill from' page (i.e. a GSP) displaying, say, a list of authors, within the loop displaying each author you would include a new column using code similar to the following:
import org.grails.plugins.drilldown.*
Such a column might be headed 'Books'. The attributes of the drilldown tag are as follows:
<td><g:drilldown</td>
- controller - The name of the 'drill to' controller.
- action - The name of the 'drill to' action (defaults to 'list')
- domain - If the 'drill from' controller name is NOT in the format domainController then you must identify the domain being drilled from (e.g. domain="Author"). Defaults to the controller name capitalized to make it a domain name.
- value - The id of the 'drill from' instance that the 'drill to' display is to be limited to.
- text - Any text to display as the drilldown link. Default is no text. If text is supplied then, by default, this would stop the automatic display of any image.
- encodeAs - How to encode any text attribute e.g. encodeAs='HTML'. Default is no encoding (thus allowing HTML markup to be included).
- image - If set to true, forces the display of the default image even when a text attribute exists. When set to a URL, uses the image at that URL (even if there is also text).
- imageAfter - When both text and an image are to be displayed within the drilldown link, specifies whether the image is to be displayed before (false) or after (true) the text. The default is after (true).
You must call the drilldownService.source() method at least once before using the selectList method - even if you are not interested in the object it might return. If the 'drill to' controller name is NOT in the format domainController, then you must identify the domain being drilled down to with a 'domain' option as in:
def drilldownServicedef list = { params.max = Math.min(params.max ? params.int('max') : 10, 100) def ddAuthor = drilldownService.source(session, params, "author.list") def ddPub = drilldownService.source(session, params, "publisher.list") [bookInstanceList: Book.selectList(session, params), bookInstanceTotal: Book.selectCount(session, params), ddAuthor:ddAuthor, ddPublisher:ddPub] }
If the book domain contains more than one property of type Author, then you must specify which property the drilldown system should use, as in:
drilldownService.source(session, params, "author.list", [domain:"Book"])
The above options can, of course be combined, as follows:
drilldownService.source(session, params,"author.list", [property:"reviewAuthor"])
Assuming, in the above example, that the 'drill from' controller/action was 'author.list' then ddAuthor would contain an instance of the Author domain to which the list of books should be limited. ddPub would be null. If the book list action had been called directly from a menu, then both ddAuthor and ddPub would be null. This fact can be used in the rendered book list GSP as follows:
drilldownService.source(session, params, "author.list", [domain:"Book", property:"reviewAuthor"])
The drilldownReturn tag in the above example accepts the same text, encodeAs, image and imageAfter attributes as for the drilldown tag described above.There may be various 'starting points' within an application (typically menus) where the drilldown stack should be cleared, just in case the user jumped directly back to such a starting point without working their way back through the drilldown stack. To clear the drilldown stack within a menu GSP, simply include the <g:drilldownReset/> tag. To clear the stack from within a controller, simply use drilldownService.reset(session).When a user drills down from, say, an author listing to, say, a listing of the books for a chosen author, then if they press the New Book link to create a new book it can be helpful to pre-select the author of the new book to match the 'drill from' author. This can be done by adding a line in the create method of the book controller that utilizes modified parameters to the 'source' facility described previously. For example:
<g:if <h1>Book List for Author: ${ddAuthor.name} <g:drilldownReturn/></h1> </g:if> <g:elseif <h1>Book List for Publisher: ${ddPublisher.name} <g:drilldownReturn/></h1> </g:elseif> <g:else> <h1><g:message</h1> </g:else>
def create = { def bookInstance = new Book() bookInstance.properties = params bookInstance.author = drilldownService.source(session, [controller: params.controller, action: "list"], "author.list") return [bookInstance: bookInstance] } | http://www.grails.org/plugin/drilldowns | CC-MAIN-2014-42 | refinedweb | 882 | 57.27 |
Other languages have functions, procedures, methods, or routines, but in Ruby there is only the method—a chunk of expressions that return a value.
So far in this book, we've been defining and using methods without much thought. Now it's time to get into the details.
As we've seen throughout this book, a method is defined using the keyword
def. Method names should begin with a lowercase letter. (You won't get an immediate error if you use an uppercase letter, but when Ruby sees you calling the method, it will first guess that it is a constant, not a method invocation, and as a result it may parse the call incorrectly.) Methods that act as queries are often named with a trailing “
?”, such as
instance_of?. Methods that are “dangerous,” or modify the receiver, might be named with a trailing “
!”. For instance,
String provides both a
chop and a
chop!. The first one returns a modified string; the second modifies the receiver in place. “
?” and “
!” are the only weird characters allowed as method name suffixes.
Now that we've specified a name for our new method, we may need to declare some parameters. These are simply a list of local variable names in parentheses. Some sample method declarations are
def myNewMethod(arg1, arg2, arg3) # 3 arguments # Code for the method would go here end def myOtherNewMethod # No arguments # Code for the method would go here end
Ruby lets you specify default values for a method's arguments—values that will be used if the caller doesn't pass them explicitly. This is done using the assignment operator.
def coolDude(arg1="Miles", arg2="Coltrane", arg3="Roach") "#{arg1}, #{arg2}, #{arg3}." end coolDude → "Miles, Coltrane, Roach." coolDude("Bart") → "Bart, Coltrane, Roach." coolDude("Bart", "Elwood") → "Bart, Elwood, Roach." coolDude("Bart", "Elwood", "Linus") → "Bart, Elwood, Linus."
The body of a method contains normal Ruby expressions, except that you may not define an instance method, class, or module within a method. The return value of a method is the value of the last expression executed, or the result of an explicit
return expression.
But what if you want to pass in a variable number of arguments, or want to capture multiple arguments into a single parameter? Placing an asterisk before the name of the parameter after the “normal” parameters does just that.
def varargs(arg1, *rest) "Got #{arg1} and #{rest.join(', ')}" end varargs("one") → "Got one and " varargs("one", "two") → "Got one and two" varargs "one", "two", "three" → "Got one and two, three"
In this example, the first argument is assigned to the first method parameter as usual. However, the next parameter is prefixed with an asterisk, so all the remaining arguments are bundled into a new
Array, which is then assigned to that parameter.
As we discussed in “Blocks and Iterators,” when a method is called, it may be associated with a block. Normally, you simply call the block from within the method using
yield.
def takeBlock(p1) if block_given? yield(p1) else p1 end end
takeBlock("no block") → "no block" takeBlock("no block") { |s| s.sub(/no /, ”) } → "block"
However, if the last parameter in a method definition is prefixed with an ampersand, any associated block is converted to a
Proc object, and that object is assigned to the parameter.
class TaxCalculator def initialize(name, &block) @name, @block = name, block end def getTax(amount) "#@name on #{amount} = #{ @block.call(amount) }" end end tc = TaxCalculator.new("Sales tax") { |amt| amt * 0.075 } tc.getTax(100) → "Sales tax on 100 = 7.5" tc.getTax(250) → "Sales tax on 250 = 18.75"
You call a method by specifying a receiver, the name of the method, and optionally some parameters and an associated block.
connection.downloadMP3("jitterbug") { |p| showProgress(p) }
In this example, the object
connection is the receiver,
downloadMP3 is the name of the method,
"jitterbug" is the parameter, and the stuff between the braces is the associated block.
For class and module methods, the receiver will be the class or module name.
File.size("testfile") Math.sin(Math::PI/4)
If you omit the receiver, it defaults to self, the current object.
self.id → 537794160 id → 537794160 self.type → Object type → Object
This defaulting mechanism is how Ruby implements private methods. Private methods may not be called with a receiver, so they must be methods available in the current object.
The optional parameters follow the method name. If there is no ambiguity you can omit the parentheses around the argument list when calling a method. (Other Ruby documentation sometimes calls these method calls without parentheses “commands.”) However, except in the simplest cases we don't recommend this—there are some subtle problems that can trip you up. (In particular, you must use parentheses on a method call that is itself a parameter to another method call (unless it is the last parameter). Our rule is simple: if there's any doubt, use parentheses.
a = obj.hash # Same as a = obj.hash() # this. obj.someMethod "Arg1", arg2, arg3 # Same thing as obj.someMethod("Arg1", arg2, arg3) # with parentheses.
Earlier we saw that if you put an asterisk in front of a formal parameter in a method definition, multiple arguments in the call to the method will be bundled up into an array. Well, the same thing works in reverse.
When you call a method, you can explode an array, so that each of its members is taken as a separate parameter. Do this by prefixing the array argument (which must follow all the regular arguments) with an asterisk.
def five(a, b, c, d, e) "I was passed #{a} #{b} #{c} #{d} #{e}" end five(1, 2, 3, 4, 5 ) → "I was passed 1 2 3 4 5" five(1, 2, 3, *['a', 'b']) → "I was passed 1 2 3 a b" five(*(10..14).to_a) → "I was passed 10 11 12 13 14"
We've already seen how you can associate a block with a method call.
listBones("aardvark") do |aBone| # ... end
Normally, this is perfectly good enough—you associate a fixed block of code with a method, in the same way you'd have a chunk of code after an
if or
while statement.
Sometimes, however, you'd like to be more flexible. For example, we may be teaching math skills. (Of course, Andy and Dave would have to learn math skills first. Conrad Schneiker reminded us that there are three kinds of people: those who can count and those who can't.) The student could ask for an n-plus table or an n-times table. If the student asked for a 2-times table, we'd output 2, 4, 6, 8, and so on. (This code does not check its inputs for errors.)
print "(t)imes or (p)lus: " times = gets print "number: " number = gets.to_i if times =~ /^t/ puts((1..10).collect { |n| n*number }.join(", ")) else puts((1..10).collect { |n| n+number }.join(", ")) end
produces:
(t)imes or (p)lus: t number: 2 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, 18, 20
This works, but it's ugly, with virtually identical code on each branch of the
if statement. If would be nice if we could factor out the block that does the calculation.
print "(t)imes or (p)lus: " times = gets print "number: " number = gets.to_i if times =~ /^t/ calc = proc { |n| n*number } else calc = proc { |n| n+number } end puts((1..10).collect(&calc).join(", "))
produces:
(t)imes or (p)lus: t number: 2 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, 18, 20
If the last argument to a method is preceded by an ampersand, Ruby assumes that it is a
Proc object. It removes it from the parameter list, converts the
Proc object into a block, and associates it with the method.
This technique can also be used to add some syntactic sugar to block usage. For example, you sometimes want to take an iterator and store each value it yields into an array. We'll reuse our Fibonacci number generator.
a = [] fibUpTo(20) { |val| a << val } → nil a.inspect → "[1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13]"
This works, but our intention isn't quite as transparent as we may like. Instead, we'll define a method called
into, which returns the block that fills the array. (Notice at the same time that the block returned really is a closure—it references the parameter
anArray even after method
into has returned.)
def into(anArray) return proc { |val| anArray << val } end fibUpTo 20, &into(a = []) a.inspect → "[1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13]"
Some languages feature “keyword arguments”—that is, instead of passing arguments in a given order and quantity, you pass the name of the argument with its value, in any order. Ruby 1.6 does not have keyword arguments (although they are scheduled to be implemented in Ruby 1.8).
In the meantime, people are using hashes as a way of achieving the same effect. For example, we might consider adding a more powerful named-search facility to our
SongList.
class SongList def createSearch(name, params) # ... end end aList.createSearch("short jazz songs", { 'genre' => "jazz", 'durationLessThan' => 270 } )
The first parameter is the search name, and the second is a hash literal containing search parameters. The use of a hash means that we can simulate keywords: look for songs with a genre of “jazz” and a duration less than 4 1/2 minutes. However, this approach is slightly clunky, and that set of braces could easily be mistaken for a block associated with the method. So, Ruby has a short cut. You can place
key
=>
value pairs in an argument list, as long as they follow any normal arguments and precede any array and block arguments. All these pairs will be collected into a single hash and passed as one argument to the method. No braces are needed.

Unfortunealty I have version 4.10.2222 of DOS (the one the comes w/win98) and it doesn't recognize xcopy.
I have a computer, and I can only use DOS on it. Nothing else. I have attached an external HDD to it, and I want to copy everything from the computer onto the HDD. I tried typing "copy c:\* d:\*" ...
Is there a way in C++ to specifically put a certain variable in the processor's cache?
If not is there a way with inline x86 assembly code?
Thanks, all my problems are gone now.
Here's some code I have:

#include <stdlib.h>
#include <fstream.h>

Have you tried google?
This should be moved to the General Discussions board.
Cuz the poll was rigged in your favor. You had the most motivation to rig it.
IMO, Dev-C++ is the best IDE.
It looks pretty cool, but it would be nice if it were interactive.
A "good" compiler is a matter of opinion, but I'm sure there are qualitties almost anyone would want in a compiler.
This sounds a lot like homework.
Oh, and nice title. Without it, I would have never guessed this topic was on C++.
Both of those laptops are better than the one I'm using right now (500 Mhz P3, 96MB Ram, 2MB video chip, 5GB HDD, broken mouse)
I'm a communist, and I like open source, but I don't like Linux. Windows is better, regardless of price.

I wanted to make my own helmet cam which would also show data about what was going on (e.g. speed, altitude, temperature).
I came up with a 1 led, 1 button design; the led flashes when the cam is 'ready' (quickly when there isn't a GPS fix, slowly when there is GPS fix), the led comes on when the camera is recording, a short button press starts / stops the camera and a long button press shutdowns the helmet cam.
I set about writing the code which would run at start-up of the Pi and control the camera, waiting for the button to be pressed, controlling the led, reading the GPS data and temperature data and start / stop the camera.
The program is multi-threaded and simply starts up a thread for each 'thing' (led, button, GPS, temperature sensor) that needs to be 'controlled', the main program then polls these controllers asking them if anything has changed and acts accordingly (e.g. starting / stopping the camera, shutting down the pi).
When the camera is started , the program uses the excellent python module, picamera, to start the video capture and writes the gps and temperature data to a file while the video is recording. I made a change to the picamera module (which has since been introduced), this gave me a function to read the current frame number while the video was being recorded, allowing me to sync the data I have read to an exact position in the video.
I then use the data file to create a data video which I ultimately overly on top of the video taken from the helmet cam. The data video is created in exactly the same way as my Raspberry Pi GPS Car Dash Cam, by creating individual images for each frame using PIL (python imaging library).
A single frame image from a data video
I then use mencoder to join the images together into a single video.
Hardware
The helmet cam is a Raspberry Pi model A inside a small sandwich box, a control box and a Raspberry Pi camera board on the end of a long ribbon cable.
The control box houses an Adafruit Ultimate GPS breakout board, a waterproof led and button, a temperature sensor and a very badly soldered piece of strip board which ties it all together.
It was my first time using stripboard, so moving my breadboard build to something more robust was a big job for me, but armed with a piece of paper and a set of crayons I came up with a design!
The camera is mounted on a small piece of wood, cut so when its mounted on my helmet, it, roughly, points in the right direction.
I got a 1m cable for the camera which I shielded with tin foil, as without it, it caused the GPS unit to loose fix when it was recording and then wrapped it in a polyester braided sheath.
The camera, mount and cable are then attached using sticky backed velcro to my helmet, so I could take it off when not in use.
The whole set-up was powered by a usb power bank.
Code
There are a number of python modules which make up the helmet cam code:
- pelmetcam.py - this is the main program which controls the helmet cam
- tempSensorController.py - module which continually reads from the temperature sensor
- GPSController.py - module which continually reads from the GPS sensor
- createDataOverlay.py - module which creates the data overlay images
I also created a few bash scripts to make things easier to manage:
- runPelmetcam.sh - this is run when the pi boots and starts up the helmet cam, including the GPS daemon, temp sensor modules and shuts down the pi when the program finishes
- runPelmetcam.init - init.d script to make runPelmetcam.sh run at boot, see this post for information on running commands at boot
- createVideos.sh - runs the commands to make the main video into an MP4, creating the data overlay images and encoding them into a video file
Challenges
Before I went away I wanted to make sure it would operate in cold weather and test simple things, like my code would work if temperatures went negative, unfortunately an unusually mild winter in the UK mean't the only thing I could do was stick it in the freezer! It performed perfectly for the 20 minutes I left it in there. I can also confirm that the light does go off when you close the freezer door!
After the unit had been on for a while I started to notice that the temperature sensor was reporting temperatures much higher than expected (i.e. +9 C when it was -5 outside), I don't know for sure but I'm pretty sure the GPS unit generates a little bit of heat, which obviously when trapped inside a small sealed box warmed it up a bit!
If I was to do it again I wouldn't bother putting the GPS unit in the control box; it seemed like a good idea due to the interference the camera creates and a desire to have it 'outside' to get a better GPS fix, but with the shielding on the camera cable and the sensitivity of the GPS Unit, I didn't need to worry.
There is a current bug in the raspberry pi firmware which means if you try to use the raspberry pi camera at the same time as using a 1-wire sensor (like my temperature one) the camera will fail to start up. There are several reported workarounds, in the end I ended up reverting to an old firmware which didn't suffer from this bug.
Stability
I wasn't expecting my Pi powered helmet cam to be very robust, I was secretly only expecting to get 1 or 2 runs out of it. I thought the combination of wet conditions, very cold temperatures, dodgy wiring / soldering and some pretty aggressive snowboarding would mean that it just self destructed.
However, it proved to be very robust, I used it all week and recorded hours of footage with the camera.
The only component which failed was a cheap micro usb power cable which split and caused the pi to boot and reboot continuously as it shorted out, ultimately leading to a corrupt file system.

Shopping List
I was asked what 'bits' you need to create your own helmet cam. A lot of these bits I already had, but I think this is a complete shopping list:
- Raspberry Pi - Model A
- Raspberry Pi - Camera Board
- Sandisk Class 10 32GB SD Card
- Adafruit Ultimate GPS Breakout Board (UK, US)
- Waterproof Push Button
- Waterproof Ultrabright Red LED
- Electronic Project Enclosure
- 1m ribbon camera cable
- Tin Foil (for shielding camera cable)
- Portable Battery Charger USB Power Bank
- 15mm Polyester Braiding
- 8m Polyester Braiding
- DS18B20 Temperature Sensor (UK, US)
- 4.7k resistor (for temperature sensor)
- 10k resistor (pull down for button)
- ?k resistor (appropriate for your LED)
- Stripboard
- Plenty of wire
Lucky! I never really got to snowboard... We don't really live anywhere cold with snow.
Plenty of time to learn...
martin, i go away to alpes d'huez in 11 sleeps. is it feasible to make this work in that amount of time?
If you have already got the bits then, yes, I dont see why not. The only build is the control panel and camera cable and mount. If I had my time again would only put the button and the led into the control panel and leave the GPS receiver in with the Pi, which would simplify things. It just a question of whether you could get all the bits!
If you interested, Ill try and pull together a shopping list and include it in the post.
I'd definitely be interested. Im on pimoroni now, trying to work out exactly what i need.
The first image makes it look as if the camera wasnt pointing forwards, looks more up to the sky. was that right? or a testing version?
Ive added a shopping list for you. For most of the commodity items (braiding, buttons, led's), ebay will be your friend!
What's the best source for long camera ribbon cables? The usual suppliers don't seem to have anything longer than ~50cm.
Ebay 100cm cable
The camera seems to work well. I remember reading something that suggested the cable supplied with Pi Camera is short because there are performance issues with longer cables. Did you experience any?
No, nothing. There are pictures on the forum of people using VERY long cables.
Good to know. Great article Martin. Thanks.
Awesome project, thanks for sharing. Planning to incorporate some of your code for my GPS rover..
Excellent, I look forward to seeing it in action.
works it with a raspberry pi model b
Yes it works fine with a Model B, it will just use more power. The model A uses about half the power of a model B.
tnks voor the quick reply.
I follow you for a while and would like to give something back to the things you do for us.
I'd like to make you totally free a website.
Aleen hosting fees.
please contact me via google+ as you may want to
sorry for bad english
Hi Martin.. This is brilliant and thanks for being so generous with your info. I was looking for a project learn how to use GPS and a Raspberry Pi and by coincidence am going skiing next week so this was perfect! I have mostly got my version working but I was wondering if you could help with the overlaying of the videos. I am at a stage where I get two videos but am a bit confused how you overlay them? Any help would be great, Thanks
Hi Doug,
Im glad you have found it useful, Im also really pleased you have built your own. I would love to see the results, do you have a blog or anything?
Anyway to overlay! I actually use Microsoft Expression Encoder 4. Its a free video encoder and actually a pretty good one.
There is an option when you encode a video to do a video overlay, you can also set a level of transparency too. This is what I used to bring the helmet cam video and the data video together. You could use ffmpeg on the pi, but it will take AGES to encode, my advice, copy it onto something with a little more power to do the encoding.
Hope that helps.
Mart
Mart,
Oh, I see, thanks. I downloaded Expression last night so will have a play with it today and certainly upload some videos when I have something decent to share..
Thanks again,
Doug
Hey Martin,
I love the tutorials you are posting, and I really like your code! I am having some trouble, and I really hate to bother you with this, but I have been at my project for days now and really dont know where else to go.
first, I dropped kernel version to 3.6 like you recomened ( i was hitting the temp single line probe issue). I used your pelmetcam repo as well as your picamera fork. I believe i have most everything working, but I keep getting this error everytime i push the record button
mmal: mmal_vc_port_parameter_set: failed to set port parameter 32:2:ENOSYS
Unexpected error - Unable to set inline_headers: Function not implemented
I have searched high an low for a fix but the only thing i hear is "upgrade firmware" but i really dont want to for the same reason i backed down from the 3.10 kernel.
I did the sudo python setup.py install for the picamera in the picamera dir, i just dont know what is causing this error or how to adress it. did you bump into this? do you have any recomendations? thanks, and again, sorry for the trouble.
Right... I think! We are going back a while that i needed to find a version of the kernel which supported inline headers but didnt contain the 1-wire bug! It was a right pain. If you look in the github readme, i give the specific kernel build i used, are you using this one?
04/01/2013 Due to an error with the rpi kernel, you need to use kernel version Linux picam 3.6.11+ #557, until the bug is fixed downgrade kernel with command sudo rpi-update 8234d5148aded657760e9ecd622f324d140ae891
yup, that build is the magic one! looks like I was running a 3.6.11+ kernel that was just a few builds newer. Thanks a bunch man. let me know if I can return the favor.
Just let me know if you manage to get the cam built and it would be good to see some uploaded video.
for sure, I am installing it into my motorcycle. so far I got video, gps and therm. I just need to figure out how to tweak the overlays and stitch them together. then of course, overlap. Did you ever look into actually super imposing the overlay gps ontop of the actual h264 frames themself. From what i hear, python can ca do that, but im still new to multimedia and python.
Also, I wrote a script that builds kml files for google earth. If you would like I can send that to you when i get it working with your csv. it takes all the gps plot points and draws a red line along the path and is viewed through google earth. I am using it specifically for trip tracking for my bike.
I looked many times at overlaying the data in real-time. Im sure it is possible, but outside my realm of experience or level of interest to try and solve the issue.
The key sticking point seems to be getting the GPU rather than CPU to do the work, as if you try and do the overlay in the CPU it wont be quick enough.
I spoke to Dave Jones who created picamera and its a task he has on his list for inclusion in a future version of picamera, till then or someone else provides a solution Im happy to do any overlay in post production.
On the subject of data overlay in post production, I used Microsoft Expression Encoder, its pretty good and really simple to use.
Hey Martin, How did you tweak your overlay to be transparent?
I tweaked the overlay.py script to make the background of the image transparent, and the PNGs it spits out look good with transparent backgrounds, but it seems like the minute I make the data.avi with mencoder, it makes everything that was transparent... black. any ideas?
I could never work out how to make movies with transparency, it only seems to be supported by a handful of codecs.
So, I added the transparency in post production when I overlayed the data video onto the camera video. I used Microsoft Expression, setting the background colour to transparent and the transparency is one of the advanced settings.
Hey Martin,
I finally got my project running properly. Here is my first trip video with my tweaks to the overlay.
Thats great. I'm pleased you modded the overlay to fit your needs. Absolutely fantastic. The only thing missing is a link to the original project ;)
I will take care of that ;)
Do you experience frame drops for about a second every 30 seconds? I am going to turn down the resolution a bit to see if I can get the video a little smoother. I wish I could post my KML files, those are really fun to look at over Google Earth.
Thanks again for the code! I finally got a better mount. once the rain stops, I am going to put it on my motorcycle and see how it goes!
I occasionally get frame drops, but i found as long as i stuck to 25fps it was ok, what sd are using, if might be worth investing in a good high capacity class 10.
If you can upload the klm files somewhere it would be good to see them. Maybe google drive or dropbox?
Hi Martin,
I have a class 10 right now, but it still see too much skipping.
I uploaded one of my KML files to my webserver:
The KML file is generated by a python script I wrote that rips through your CSV file and creates the overlay and dumps it in the directory the CSV is found. Similar to your createOverlay python script.
You will need to open it in Google Earth. But i think it is something really neat to add to the project. I noticed Sony has come out with something very similar for $300+ It would be neat if we could build a PelmetCam image for those who want to install and go :) just an idea.
Hi Martin,
i've used a piece of your code on capture video and save framenumber on a file.
What i don't understand is, that i see on that file each frame repeated more than one time.
in attach my python code:
#!/usr/bin/python
import os
import time
import sys
import picamera
VIDEOFPS = 30
VIDEOHEIGHT = 1080
VIDEOWIDTH = 1920
try:
with picamera.PiCamera() as camera:
camera.resolution = (VIDEOWIDTH, VIDEOHEIGHT)
camera.framerate = VIDEOFPS
camera.vflip = True
camera.hflip = True
camera.video_stabilization = True
camera.start_recording("vid.h264", inline_headers=False)
print "Recording - started pi camera"
while True:
framenumber = camera.frame
print str(framenumber)
camera.stop_recording()
camera.close()
except KeyboardInterrupt:
print "User Cancelled (Ctrl C)"
finally:
print "Stopped"
could give me an help ?
You are getting frame numbers repeated because your program is reading and print the frame number more than 30 times a second.
Hi, i am complete newbie to rasberry. rally liked your project and want to do the same.
I might sound stupid but wasnt sure about what OS you are using for it.thnx
I was just using standard raspbian
Hey Martin,
I recently acquired a 3d printer and am now putting my pi and its parts in a custom case for this GPS trip-tracking dash cam project for my bike. You can check it out here if you like. Interested in your thoughts.
Hello,
I'm having problem with the creating of the overlay movie :-(
Always the same error...
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/home/pi/dev/pelmetcam/createDataOverlay.fullData.py", line 176, in
datadrawer.newDataFrame(int(dataitems[0]),
ValueError: invalid literal for int() with base 10: 'PiVideoFrame(index=0'
A movie of my raspberry cam (cam is build-in in my helmet)
You are getting the error because its trying to convert "PiVideoFrame(index=0...." into an integer. Im guessing you used the latest version of picamera. When i created this picamera didnt support getting the 'frame count' so I used a modded version of picamera to do this. You need to change line 176 to pull the frame number out of the "PiVideoFrame(index=0..." text. Which, from looking at the picamera documentation is the "index".
Thank you for your reply.
It doesn't work.. Now i have Always Floating errors.
Can you send me a working file?
I'm right now in Les 3 Vallees (Val Thorens France).. I like to test it.
Hellow folks, you'll need substitute the line 262
dataString = str(framenumber) by
dataString = str(camera.frame.index)

Hey Martin!
Great Project! I am almost ready to go but have a question:
I download you scripts but i am not shure where to place them on my raspberry
hope to hear from you
willem
I think you can probably put it where you want. From memory I think I put it in:
/home/pi/dev/pelmetcam
I tried that but when i start Up mij raspberry iT doesnt run your scripts at boot. Cant quite figure out what the problem is
The program needs to be set to run at startup by creating an init.d script, see this post for more info, there is an init.d script called runPelmetCam.init
I created that script in /init.d but stil no succes. I'm going to try it again tonight with à clean raspbian os
Btw... Is iT necessary that all the hardware is connected? I'm not using the Temp sensor and i am not shure that my GPS is working 100%
No idea... I suppose there is a chance the code wont run. Although I suppose there is a chance the code wont run anyway, I havent tried it in over a year! ;)
Oke, id like to use it for my skiing trip in a few weeks. Seems like i have to work hard for it :)
Martin, thanks for writing and documenting this project. I've just started a build of this on Raspberry Pi 2 which obviously uses the new version of picamera - as such I've run into a few of the problems mentioned here by others. Luckily I've managed to get around them and I've blogged about them in the hope that he'll help others :)
Great project, congratulations!

Two days after the national day, I even wanted to make a cooing sound. Cough, cough, these are not important! Recently, I studied AC automata and found that it is not as difficult as I thought.
Origin of AC automata
I know that many people are very excited when they first see this thing. (don't ask me why I know)
But AC automata is not an automatic program...
AC automata is called AC automata because the algorithm was originally called aho Corasick automaton, which was invented by a man named aho Corasick.
So AC automata is also called aho Corasick algorithm
The algorithm was produced in Bell Labs in 1975. It is a famous multi-mode matching algorithm.
Use of AC automata
Then some students may have questions. AC automata can't automatically AC. what's the role?
In fact, the usage of AC automata is similar to KMP, which is used to solve the problem of string matching; But the difference is that AC automata is more used to solve the matching problem of multiple strings, in other words, the KMP problem with multiple substrings to match.
For example, give some words acbs, asf,dsef;
Then give a long article (sentence), acbsdfgeasf;
Ask how many words appear in this article, or the total number of words, which is the problem to be solved by AC automata.
Implementation method of AC automata
AC automata is based on the structure of Trie and the idea of KMP.
In short, there are two steps to establish an AC automata:
- Basic Trie structure: all pattern strings form a Trie.
- KMP's idea: construct mismatch pointers for all nodes on the Trie tree.
Then we can use it for multi pattern matching.
Students who don't understand trie can Click here to learn
Students who can't understand KMP can Click here to learn
So let's realize AC automata step by step!
Define a dictionary tree
First, we need to define a dictionary tree. We use struct to realize the definition of each node:
struct node { int next[27]; int fail; int count; void init() { memset(next,-1,sizeof(next)); fail=0; count=0; } }s[1100001];
The next [] array that stores the drive values
The next [] array is used to store the position of the last character of each character in the s array in the normal Trie tree. For example, if we read a string APPLE, then:
s [1] stores A, its next [P] = 2, and the rest is - 1;
s [2] stores P, its next [P] = 3, and the rest is - 1;
s [3] stores P, its next [L] = 4, and the rest is - 1;
s [4] stores L, its next [E] = 5, and the rest is - 1;
s [5] stores E, and its next is - 1.
fail: failed pointer
fail is the failure pointer. The following structure will talk about how to construct it quickly, so what's the use?
Let's take an example. This example only shows the mismatch pointer of e:
Suppose we read she, shr, say and her, then we get a lovely dictionary tree:
Then we just construct a failure pointer:
For example, matching article: sher, we just started from s and walked to the left. After walking to e, we found that: ah, there is no way to continue walking. If we start another round of matching from h, it will be a great waste of time; At this time, we are like, can we use the previous matching information? tolerable! The prefix he of her is exactly the same as that of she, so when she matching fails, we jump to the back of he and continue matching, and find that R matches r! This is the use of the fail pointer. Is it very similar to the next array of KMP!
count at the end of the record
If I insert a word APPLE, insert it into the last e, and find that this word has no subsequent letter. At this time, we will add a 1 to the count of this e, indicating that there is a word ending with this E.
Initialized init()
Here we also define an initialization function init(), which is used to initialize when we start a new starting point.
Insert words into the dictionary tree
Let's explain it in combination with the procedure:; }
First, str array is the string we want to read in, and ind represents my current position in s [] array; Next, let's start the cycle - for each point:
If the next of his previous letter does not point to his letter, we will create a new point to store the letter and let the next of his previous letter point to it;
If there is a position that directly points to its letter, just jump over it!
Finally, don't forget to add 1 to the count at the end of each word.
a key!!! Quick construction of fail pointer
What's the use of the fail pointer
First, what is the use of the fail pointer? Let's continue with the previous example:
We found that the fail pointer of e on the left points to e on the far right of L, so what is the meaning of this pointer? When a point i points to a point J, let's start from J and go up l characters to the vertex, where the string from the vertex to j is s;
In this example, s is "he" and the length is l, that is, 2; Then start with i and go up L-1 characters to get a string ss. In this example, ss is also "he"!
At this time, we were surprised to find that s is the same as ss!!
We know that when the fail pointer of i points to j, the string s from vertex to j is the suffix of the string from vertex to i!
In this way, if i continues to match down and fails, i can start matching directly from his fail instead of starting from scratch! Save a lot of time! This is the essence of the fail pointer!
How to construct the fail pointer
Let's paste the code first:
int make_fail() { int head=1,tail=1; int ind,ind_f; for(int i=1;i<=26;i++) { if(s[0].next[i]!=-1) { q[tail]=s[0].next[i]; tail++; } } while(head<tail) { ind=q[head]; for(int i=1;i<=26;i++) { if(s[ind].next[i]!=-1) { q[tail]=s[ind].next[i]; tail++; ind_f=s[ind].fail; while(ind_f>0 && s[ind_f].next[i]==-1) ind_f=s[ind_f].fail; if(s[ind_f].next[i]!=-1)ind_f=s[ind_f].next[i]; s[s[ind].next[i]].fail=ind_f; } } head++; } return 0; }
First, we need to open a queue q to store the points to be processed;
Then we add all the points connected to the vertices to the queue, and then we operate on each number in the queue:
First, add all his sons to the end of the queue, and then as a responsible father node, we can't just throw our sons to the end of the queue, and do a good job - help our sons do a good job in the fail pointer——
First, if I am the parent node x, for the child node of the letter A, I will first look at the node y pointed to by my fail pointer and see if y has the letter a child node z. if so, it would be great. I will let the fail pointer of my child node point to z;
If not, start from y and continue to see if there are any child nodes of the letter a at the point he fail s to point to... Until you find the point that meets the conditions.
If there's no way, even if the fail can't be found all the way to node 0, there's no way. The fail of my letter a child node has to point to node 0 [because the initialization is 0, so there's no need to operate at this time]
Let's take a concrete chestnut to see:
So this operation can quickly construct the fail pointer!
KMP on tree
Let's look at the code; }
Similarly, Ind indicates that I have matched the current point. If the current point does not continue to be the same as any child node of ind, then I will jump to the point pointed by the fail pointer of ind... I know that I find a match with the current point or jump to the root node, which is very same as KMP!
It should be noted that since this problem is to solve which points appear in the parent string, we have carried out a layer of Optimization:
while(p>0 && s[p].count!=-1) { ans=ans+s[p].count; s[p].count=-1; p=s[p].fail; }
When we match a string s [string from the root node to IND], we jump to its fail. Because the string ss from his fail to the root node must be the suffix of S, ss must also appear in the parent string. At this time, add its count and set it to - 1 to prevent subsequent repeated access!

Maps are represented in the API by the
GoogleMap and
MapFragment classes.
Code samples
The ApiDemos repository on GitHub includes
samples that demonstrate the use of the
GoogleMap object and
the
SupportMapFragment:
- BasicMapDemoActivity: Displaying a basic map with a marker
- basic_demo.xml: Adding a
SupportMapFragmentin a layout definition
Add a map to an Android app
The basic steps for adding a map are:
- (You only need to do this step once.) Follow the steps in the project configuration guide to get the API, obtain a key and add the required attributes to your Android manifest.
- Add a
Fragmentobject to the
Activitythat will handle the map. The easiest way to do this is to add a
<fragment>element to the layout file for the
Activity.
- Implement the
OnMapReadyCallbackinterface and use the
onMapReady(GoogleMap)callback method to get a handle to the
GoogleMapobject. The
GoogleMapobject is the internal representation of the map itself. To set the view options for a map, you modify its
GoogleMapobject.
- Call
getMapAsync()on the fragment to register the callback.
Below is more detail about each step.
Add a fragment
Add a
<fragment> element to the activity's layout file to define a
Fragment object. In this element, set the
android:name
attribute to
"com.google.android.gms.maps.MapFragment". This automatically
attaches a
MapFragment to the activity.
The following layout file contains a
<fragment> element:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <fragment xmlns:
You can also add a
MapFragment to an
Activity in code. To do this, create a new
MapFragment
instance, and();
Add map code
To work with the map inside your app, you'll need to implement the
OnMapReadyCallback interface and set an instance of
the callback on a
MapFragment or
MapView
object. This tutorial uses a
MapFragment, because that's the most common way
of adding a map to an app. The first step is to implement the callback interface:
public class MainActivity extends FragmentActivity implements OnMapReady.map is added automatically to the Android project
when you build the layout file.. The callback is triggered when the
map is ready to be used. It provides a non-null instance of
GoogleMap. You can
use the
GoogleMap object to set the view options for the map or add a marker,
for example.
@Override public void onMapReady(GoogleMap map) { map.addMarker(new MarkerOptions() .position(new LatLng(0, 0)) .title("Marker")); }
The map object
The Google Maps Android API allows you to display a Google map in your Android application. These maps have the same appearance as the maps you see in the Google Maps for Mobile (GMM) app, and the API exposes many of the same features. Two notable differences between the GMM application and the maps displayed by the Google Maps Android API are:
- Map tiles displayed by the API don't contain any personalized content, such as personalized smart icons.
- Not all icons on the map are clickable. For example, transit station icons can’t be clicked. However, markers that you add to the map are clickable, and the API has a listener callback interface for various marker interactions.
In addition to mapping functionality, the API also supports a full range of interactions that are consistent with the Android UI model. For example, you can set up interactions with a map by defining listeners that respond to user gestures.
The key class when working with a map object is the
GoogleMap class.
GoogleMap models the map object within
your application. Within your UI, a map will be represented by either a
MapFragment or
MapView object.
GoogleMap handles the following operations automatically:
- Connecting to the Google Maps service.
- Downloading map tiles.
- Displaying tiles on the device screen.
- Displaying various controls such as pan and zoom.
- Responding to pan and zoom gestures by moving the map and zooming in or out.
In addition to these automatic operations, you can control the behavior of
maps with objects and methods of the API. For example,
GoogleMap has callback methods that respond to
keystrokes and touch gestures on the map. You can also set marker icons on
your map and add overlays to it, using objects you provide to
GoogleMap.
MapFragment
MapFragment, a subclass of the Android
Fragment class, allows you to place a map in an Android
fragment.
MapFragment objects act as containers for the map, and provide
access to the
GoogleMap object.
Unlike a
View, a
Fragment represents a behavior or a portion of user
interface in an activity. You can combine multiple fragments in a single
activity to build a multi-pane UI and reuse a fragment in multiple activities.
Refer to the Android documentation on
Fragments to
learn more.
MapView
MapView, a subclass of the Android
View class,
allows you to place a map in an Android
View. A
View represents a
rectangular region of the screen, and is a fundamental building block for
Android applications and widgets. Much like a
MapFragment, the
MapView
acts as a container for the map, exposing core map functionality through the
GoogleMap object.
When using the API in fully interactive mode, users of the
MapView class
must forward the following activity lifecycle methods to the corresponding
methods in the
MapView class:
onCreate(),
onStart(),
onResume(),
onPause(),
onStop(),
onDestroy(),
onSaveInstanceState(), and
onLowMemory(). The ApiDemos repository on GitHub includes
a sample that demonstrates how to forward the activity
lifecycle methods. When using the API in lite mode, forwarding lifecycle
events is optional. For details, see the lite mode
documentation.
Map types
There are many types of maps available within the Google Maps Android API. A map's type governs the overall representation of the map. For example, an atlas usually contains political maps that focus on showing boundaries, and road maps that show all of the roads for a city or region.
The Google Maps Android API offers four types of maps, as well as an option to have no map at all:
- Normal
- Typical road map. Roads, some man-made features, and important natural features such as rivers are shown. Road and feature labels are also visible.
- Hybrid
- Satellite photograph data with road maps added. Road and feature labels are also visible.
- Satellite
- Satellite photograph data. Road and feature labels are not visible.
- Terrain
- Topographic data. The map includes colors, contour lines and labels, and perspective shading. Some roads and labels are also visible.
- None
- No tiles. The map will be rendered as an empty grid with no tiles loaded.
Change the map type
To set the type of a map, call the
GoogleMap object's
setMapType() method, passing one of the type
constants defined in
GoogleMap. For example, to display a
satellite map:
GoogleMap map; ... // Sets the map type to be "hybrid" map.setMapType(GoogleMap.MAP_TYPE_HYBRID);
The image below shows a comparison of normal, hybrid and terrain maps for the same location:
Indoor maps.
Work with indoor maps in the API. If you'd.
- An interface on GoogleMap,
OnIndoorStateChangeListener, allows you to set a listener to be called when either a new building comes into focus, or a new level is activated in a building. For more details, see Interacting with the Map.
GoogleMap.getFocusedBuilding()gives you the building that is currently in focus. You can then find the currently active level by calling
IndoorBuilding.getActiveLevelIndex(). Refer to the reference documentation to see all the information available in the
IndoorBuildingand
IndoorLevelobjects.
Add floor plans
Indoor maps (floor plans) are available in select locations. If floor plan data is not available for a building that you would like to highlight in your application, you can:
- Add floor plans to Google Maps directly. This will make your floor plans available to all users of Google Maps.
- Display a floor plan as a ground overlay or tile overlay on your map. This will enable only users of your application to view your floor plans.
Configure initial state
The Maps API allows you to configure the initial state of the map to suit your application's needs. You can specify the following:
- The camera position, including: location, zoom, bearing and tilt. See Changing the Map View for more details on camera positioning.
- The map type.
- Whether the zoom buttons and/or compass appear on screen.
- The gestures a user can use to manipulate the camera.
- Whether lite mode is enabled or not. A lite mode map is a bitmap image of a map that supports a subset of the functionality supplied by the full API.
You can configure the initial state of the map either via XML, if you have added the map to your activity's layout file, or programmatically, if you have added the map that way.
Using XML attributes
This section describes how to set the initial state of the map if you have added a map to your application using an XML layout file.
The Maps API defines a set of custom XML attributes for a
MapFragment or a
MapView that you can use to configure the initial
state of the map directly from the layout file. The following attributes
are currently defined:
mapType. This allows you to specify the type of map to display. Valid values include:
none,
normal,
hybrid,
satelliteand
terrain.
cameraTargetLat,
cameraTargetLng,
cameraZoom,
cameraBearing,
cameraTilt. These allow you to specify the initial camera position. See here for more details on Camera Position and its properties.
uiZoomControls,
uiCompass. These allow you to specify whether you want the zoom controls and compass to appear on the map. See
UiSettingsfor more details.
uiZoomGestures,
uiScrollGestures,
uiRotateGestures,
uiTiltGestures. These allow you to specify which gestures are enabled/disabled for interaction with the map. See
UiSettingsfor more details.
zOrderOnTop. Control whether the map view's surface is placed on top of its window. See SurfaceView.setZOrderOnTop(boolean) for more details. Note that this will cover all other views that could appear on the map (e.g., the zoom controls, the my location button).
useViewLifecycle. Only valid with a
MapFragment. This attribute specifies whether the lifecycle of the map should be tied to the fragment's view or the fragment itself. See here for more details.
liteMode. A value of
truesets the map to lite mode. A lite mode map is a bitmap image of a map that supports a subset of the functionality supplied by the full API. The default value of this attribute is
false.
In order to use these custom attributes within your XML layout file, you must
first add the following namespace declaration. You can choose any namespace, it
doesn't have to be
map:
xmlns:map=""
You can then add the attributes with a
map: prefix into your layout
components, as you would with standard Android attributes.
The following XML code snippet shows how to configure a
MapFragment with
some custom options. The same attributes can be applied to a
MapView"/>
Programmatically
This section describes how to set the initial state of the map if you have added a map to your application programmatically.
If you have added a
MapFragment (or
MapView) programmatically, then you
can configure its initial state by passing in a
GoogleMapOptions
object with your options specified. The options available to you are exactly
the same as those available via XML. You can create a
GoogleMapOptions
object like this:
GoogleMapOptions options = new GoogleMapOptions();
And then configure it as follows:
options.mapType(GoogleMap.MAP_TYPE_SATELLITE) .compassEnabled(false) .rotateGesturesEnabled(false) .tiltGesturesEnabled(false);
To apply these options when you are creating a map, do one of the following:
- If you are using a
MapFragment, use the
MapFragment.newInstance(GoogleMapOptions options)static factory method to construct the fragment and pass in your custom configured options.
- If you are using a
MapView, use the
MapView(Context, GoogleMapOptions)constructor and pass in your custom configured options.
Map padding
This video shows an example of map padding.
A Google map is designed to fill the entire region defined by its container
element, typically a
MapView or
Map) will be relative to the padded region.
getCameraPosition()will return the center of the padded region.
Projection.
getVisibleRegion()will return the padded region.
- UI controls will be offset from the edge of the container by the specified number of pixels.<< | https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/android-api/map | CC-MAIN-2016-40 | refinedweb | 2,014 | 56.55 |
Are you preparing for the Kubernetes interview? If Yes, then this blog is for you! This blog helps you get to know the Top Kubernetes Interview Questions that are possibly asked in interviews.
We have designed this blog with the latest Kubernetes Interview Questions and Answers for freshers and experienced professionals. By going through these interview questions, you will be able to crack the interview easily.
Kubernetes is an open-source container orchestration system for deploying, scaling and managing automated applications. It offers an excellent community and works with all cloud providers. Hence, it is a multi-container management solution.
Containers are a technology for collecting the compiled code for an application when it is required at run-time. Each container allows you to run repeatable, standard dependencies and the same behavior whenever the container runs. It divides the application from the underlying host infrastructure to make the deployment much easier in cloud or OS platforms.
A node is a worker machine or VM depending on the cluster. Each node contains services to run the pods and the pods are managed by the master components.
The services that include in a node is as follows:
The Container run-time is responsible to start and manage the containers. The kubelet is responsible for running the state of each node and receives commands from the master to work on it and it is also responsible for the metric collection of pods. The Kube-proxy is a component that manages the subnets and makes services available for all other components.
A master node is a node that controls and manages the set of worker nodes and resembles a cluster in Kubernetes.
The main components of the master node that help to manage worker nodes are as follows:
A pod is a group of containers that are deployed together on the same host. It is the basic execution unit of the Kubernetes application that can create or deploy the Kubernetes unit of object models.
Kubernetes pods can be used in two ways. they are as follows:
There are three different types of multi-container pods. They are as follows:
A namespace is used to work with multiple teams or projects spread across. It is used to divide the cluster resources for multiple users.
The namespaces are of three kinds. They are:
Docker provides the lifecycle management of a container and the docker image builds the run-time of a container. The containers run on multiple hosts through a link and are orchestrated using Kubernetes. Dockers build these containers and help to communicate with multiple hosts through Kubernetes
Container orchestration is used to communicate with several micro-services that are placed inside a single container of an application to perform various tasks.
The use of container orchestration is as follows:
There are many Container orchestration tools that provide a framework for managing microservices and containers at scale. The popular most tools for container orchestration are as follows:
The major operations that the Kubelet do as follows:
The following is the list of objects used to define the workloads.
Pods are the collection of containers used as the unit of replication in Kubernetes. Containers are the set of codes to compile in a pod of the application. Containers can communicate with other containers in the same pod.
Ans: Stateful set is a workload API object used to manage the stateful application. It is used to manage deployments and scale the sets of pods. The state information and other resilient data of stateful pods were stored and maintained in the disk storage that connects with the stateful set.
To determine the status of the deployment, use the command below:
kubectl rollout status
If the output runs, then the deployment is successfully completed.
Replication controllers act as supervisors for all long-running pods. It ensures that the specified number of pods are running at the run-time and also ensures that a pod or a set of pods are homogeneous in nature. It maintains the desired number of pods if the number of pods it will terminate the extra pod. And if there is a failed pod, the controller will automatically replace the failed pod.

The features of the Kubernetes are as follows:
Kubectl is the command-line tool used to control the Kubernetes clusters. It provides the CLI to run the command against clusters to create and manage the Kubernetes components.
The Google Container Engine (GKE) is the open-source management for the Docker containers and the clusters. This Kubernetes-based container engine supports only the clusters that run within the Google public cloud service.
The different types of services that support Kubernetes are as follows:
The various container monitoring tools are as follows:
Heapster is a performance monitoring and metric collection system. It provides cluster-wide data aggregation by running with a kubelet on each node. It allows for the collection of metrics, pods, workloads, containers, and other signals that are generated by the clusters.
A daemon set ensures that all the eligible nodes run a copy of the pod runs only once in a host. It was created and scheduled by the daemon controller. It is a process that runs in the background and does not produce any visible output.
The uses of Daemon sets are as follows:
A Replica set is used to maintain a stable set of replica pods. It is used to specify the available number of identical pods. It was also considered as a replacement for the replication controller sometimes.
ETCD is the distributed key-value store. It stores and replicates the configuring data of the Kubernetes cluster.
An ingress controller is a pod that acts as an inbound traffic handler. It is responsible for reading the ingress resource information and processing the data accordingly.
The Replication controller uses the Equity-Based selector that allows filtering by labels key and values. It only looks for the pods which have the same values as that of the label.
The load balancer is a way of distributing the loads, which is easy to implement at the dispatch level. Each load balancer sits between the client devices and the backend servers. It receives and distributes the incoming requests to all available servers.
The two different load balancers are one is an internal load balancer that balances the load and allocates the pods automatically with the required configuration. And the other is the External load balancer that directs the traffic from external loads to the backend pods.
Minikube is a type of tool that helps to run the Kubernetes locally. It runs on a single-node Kubernetes cluster inside a Virtual machine (VM).
The uses of Google Kubernetes Engine are as follows:
Prometheus is an open-source toolkit that is used for metric-based monitoring and alerting the application. It provides a data model and a query language and can provide details and actions of metrics. It supports the instrumental application of language for many languages. The Prometheus operator provides easy monitoring for deployments and k8s services, besides Alertmanager and Grafana.
Kubernetes allows the required state management by cluster services of a specified configuration. These cluster services run the configurations in the infrastructure. The following are the steps that are involved in this process as follows:
The cluster Ip is a default Kubernetes service that provides a link between the pods or map container port and the host ports. It provides the services within the cluster and gives access to other apps which are inside the same cluster.
The Different types of controller managers that can run on the master node are as follows:
The Kubernetes architecture provides a flexible, coupled mechanism for the service. It consists of one master node and multiple containers. The master node is responsible for managing the clusters, API, and scheduling the pods. Each node runs on the container runtime such as Docker, rkt along with the node that communicates with the master.
The two main components of the Kubernetes architecture are as follows:
Each node contains the individual components in it
The Kube-API is the frontend of the master node that exposes all the components in the API server. It provides communication between the Kubernetes nodes and the master components.

OK... I have had a thought grinding in my head for a while, and wantedto throw it out for everyone to think about...In the libc4/libc5 days, we attempted to use kernel headers in userspace. This was a total mess, not the least because the kernelheaders tended to pull in a lot of other kernel headers, and thedatatypes were unsuitable to have spead all across userspace.In glibc, the official rule is "don't use kernel headers." Thiscauses problems, because certain aspects of the kernel ABI is onlyavailable through the include files, and reproducing them by hand istedious and error-prone.I'm in the process of writing a very tiny libc for initramfs, and willlikely have to deal with how to use the kernel ABI as well.It seems to me that a reasonable solution for how to do this is notfor user space to use kernel headers, but for user space and thekernel to share a set of common ABI description files[1]. These filesshould be highly stylized, and only describe things visible to userspace. Furthermore, if they introduce types, they should use thealready-established __kernel_ namespace, and of course __s* and __u*could be used for specific types.This means that we would be able to get rid of #if(n)def __KERNEL__ inthe main kernel header files, because there would be a separation byfile location -- something in the main kernel include files couldinclude the ABI description files, but the opposite should never betrue.I would like to propose that these files be set up in the #includenamespace as <linux/abi/*>, with <linux/abi/arch/*> for anyarchitecture-specific support files (I do believe, however, that thosefiles should only be included by files in the linux/abi/ root. Thisprobably would be a symlink to ../asm/abi in the kernel sources,unless we change the kernel include layout.) The linux/ namespace isuniversally reserved for the kernel, and unlike <abi/*> I don't knowof any potential conflicts. I was considered <kabi/*>, but it seemscleaner to use existing namespace.If people think this is an idea, I will try to set up theinfrastructure as part of my work on klibc, although I'm definitelynot going to be able to migrate every portion of every include filethat needs to be migrated all by myself.Thoughts? -hpa[1] I'm assuming here they are C include files, just because it's acommon language to everyone; however, it would be possible to createan "ABI description language" which would compile to C headers as wellas perhaps other formats (assembly language support files?), ...)-- | https://lkml.org/lkml/2002/7/25/69 | CC-MAIN-2014-15 | refinedweb | 428 | 56.08 |
In this hands-on lab, you will be tasked with accessing a persistent volume from a pod in order to view the available volumes inside the Kubernetes cluster. By default, pods cannot access volumes directly, so you will also need to create a cluster role to provide authorization to the pod. Additionally, you cannot access the API server directly without authentication, so you will need to run kubectl in proxy mode to retrieve information about the volumes.
Learning Objectives
Successfully complete this lab by achieving the following learning objectives:
- View the Persistent Volume
- Use one command that will list the persistent volumes within the cluster.
- Create a ClusterRole and ClusterRoleBinding
- Use one command that will create a new ClusterRole with the verb
getand
listto the resource
persistentvolumes.
- Use one command that will create a new ClusterRoleBinding to the ClusterRole, in the
webnamespace and using the
defaultservice account.
- Create a pod to access the PV
- Create the YAML file including the two containers, using the two images
curlimages/curland
linuxacademycontent/kubectl-proxy.
- Issue a command to the curl container to sleep for 1 hour (3600 seconds).
- Apply the YAML to the Kubernetes cluster to run the pod.
- Request access to the PV from the pod
- Open a shell inside the container.

DLSYM(3) BSD Library Functions Manual DLSYM(3)
NAME
dlsym -- get address of a symbol
SYNOPSIS
#include <dlfcn.h>
void*
dlsym(void* handle, const char* symbol);
DESCRIPTION
dlsym() returns the address of the code or data location specified by the null-terminated character
string symbol. Which libraries and bundles are searched depends on the handle parameter.
If dlsym() is called with a handle, returned by dlopen() then only that image and any libraries it
depends on are searched for symbol.
If dlsym() is called with the special handle RTLD_DEFAULT, then all mach-o images in the process
(except those loaded with dlopen(xxx, RTLD_LOCAL)) are searched in the order they were loaded. This
can be a costly search and should be avoided.
If dlsym() is called with the special handle RTLD_NEXT, then the search for the symbol is limited to
the images which were loaded after the one issuing the call to dlsym().
RETURN VALUES
The dlsym() function returns a null pointer if the symbol cannot be found, and sets an error condition
which may be queried with dlerror().
NOTES
Unlike other dyld API's, the symbol name passed to dlsym() must NOT be prepended with an underscore.

This is the mail archive of the libc-alpha@sourceware.org mailing list for the glibc project.
Joseph, Steve, With a recent binutils the objects built for the VFP ABI are marked with the ELF flag EF_ARM_ABI_FLOAT_HARD. This flag is used by ldconfig to annotate the object in the cache with the FLAG_ARM_LIBHF flag. The FLAG_ARM_LIBHF flag is used to prevent the hard-float dyanmic linker from loading objects that use the wrong ABI e.g. soft-float ABI. Unfortunately the binutils changes for marking objects did not make it into the initial distribution builds and therefore there are many objects in the wild that lack any markings to indicate their ABI. The failure scenario is as follows: * Upgrade to a new glibc. * Upgrade to a new binutils. * Build your library with the new binutils. * Run the new glibc's ldconfig. * Try to run an old application. At this point you have a library marked FLAG_ARM_LIBHF, that can't be mixed with any of the other libraries which are hard-float ABI but no markings and therefore don't match the flags for your library e.g. _dl_cache_check_flags() fails, and the dynamic linker refuses run the application. See BZ#15006 for an example: "Libraries in ld.so.cache ignored by ld-linux-armhf.so.3 on armv6l" The solution to this problem is to use 3 states (instead of 2) for the objects in the cache, namely: (1) Don't know / Don't care. (2) Soft-float ABI (new state) (3) VFP ABI. In order to support this transitional period we then allow (1) to mix with either (2) or (3). Once all the distributions have updated to a newer binutils, and all objects are rebuilt, then every object may be either (2) or (3). I say (1) is also a "Don't care" state because this lack of flags can be used in the future to mark objects as not using any of the features of the VFP ABI and thus compatible with either (2) or (3) e.g. make no function calls that have floating point values as arguments.. Tested on ARM with no regressions. Tests run to validate the new compatibility feature: * Built application and library with no markings. - Setup ld.so.conf to include the library. - Ran ldconfig. - Application runs correctly. * Built hard-float ABI application and library with new bintuils. - Verified with readelf that both are now marked hard-float in the ELF flags (though only new readelf can parse it, old readelf prints <unknown>). - Ran ldconfig. - Application runs correctly. * Built new glibc. - Removed ldconfig cache and aux cache. - Used newly built ldconfig to build cache. - Application runs correctly when run under new dynamic linker since support for mixing don't care with hard-float is in place. - Double checked that application *fails* to run with distro dynamic linker since the referenced library is marked in the cache with FLAG_ARM_LIBHF that doesn't match any other libraries in the cache and there is no support for mixing unmarked objects.

Dennis, you’re a real hero in my world. Thanks for everything you did for the world of software development.
his passing is as equally saddening as the passing of Steve Jobs.
you must be on crack
yeah you must be… without mr richie you’d never knew steve jobs.. (or as an artist makin ipod-shaped stones )
Oh my god! I did’t know about the genius that mister Dennis Ritchie was, but I thank him for all he has created and I am sorry and I feel downright awful for the lack of gratitude I have given him, and the entire world has given him. May you rest in peace and hopefully be rewarded and praised for your contribution.
a gret man, doing greater things, for the best of all.
I still have my first edition of K & R around here somewhere… It certainly saw plenty of use over the years. A huge step forward from “8K BASIC”. And UNIX too (I run the MINT variant). Thanks Dennis. :-)
It’s really impossible to overstate just how important this man’s work has been to the modern world and the Information Era.
Sadly he hasn’t got the recognition he deserves outside of tech industries, but I suppose that’s life. Turing and Babbage both lack recognition as well, and all three are on the same level in terms of importance of contributions to the field.
Hat off. v_v
Dennis Ritchie, your such a genius. Hat’s off to you. You and steve jobs now have all of eternity to debate over unix and OSX. Have fun. :)
Ritchie wins… OSX is *nix based. :)
i did have my moments with the C compiler, spent hours debugging my faulty code, it became part of my personality now, hail! the master, who is now ubiquitous, we will never forget the contribution that made us coders, hackers, nerds, professionals.
RESPECT.RIP
@buzzles, et al:
“Sadly he hasn’t got the recognition he deserves outside of tech industries..”
I couldn’t agree more, but isn’t that typical of people in our profession/hobby? I didn’t know the man (but knew his work), yet somehow I get the feeling he didn’t do it for the recognition he deserved. He saw a need and developed a solution.
My gratitude goes to folks like Mr. Ritchie, as well as those who recognize his contributions.
Thanks for paving the road.
Thank you Mr. Ritchie. Hard to imagine a world without C.
“Windows (which at one point was itself written using the C language)”
Isn’t it still written in C? One can still call the Windows APIs, which are implemented as C functions.
c–;
windows is c,C++,C# and asm.
What a great man! I wrote a paper on him and his contributions in HS for extra credit in a C+ programming class.
He will be remembered and missed. If you just stop and think where we would be without this guy the end result is mind blowing.
Rest in peace Mr. Ritchie. You were quite literally “the man”.
Aw, man. First Jobs, now Ritchie…it seems like the number of tech luminaries to pass away doubles every 18 months.
god@world~# userdel -r dmr
As a computer scientist in training, I salute the tremendous influence dmr has brought upon computing. Namely the influence C has had on all subsequent programming languages and Unix/POSIX market share, meaning kids today have the luxury of going to university and never knowing the pain of say MVS, OS/360, or JCL.
Rest in peace.

Wow, that’s a balanced article without name dropping.
“was the precursor that led to universal software packages…” 1/2 the products list are from one company, despite having like a million other packages based on C. Practically every OS out there is written in C.
I was just thinking, “They mention iOS but not Android, which is based on Linux and Java, based on UNIX and C?”
Actually, I can’t think of any modern platforms that aren’t based on both. (Even Windows, even when you ignore C, since so much of the original design for NT was based on UNIX design.)
Truly one of the great minds of computer science.
The fact C is still the first compiler on most new cores should be counted as credit from his work.
If only he finally documented the output from

So long and thanks for all the C. RIP.
“I couldn’t agree more, but isn’t that typical of people in our profession/hobby?”
This is unfortunately true for any profession – when was the last time you heard of a great mathematician/biologist/physicist passing, no matter what were his contributions. They were mourned in amongst their own, but not by the general public. Only media visible people will get a public mourning.
Now we know who to blame. Did this guy come up with Regular Expressions too?
Dennis Ritchie, as well as Bell Labs, gave us C. I cannot imagine what my college education would be like if it were not for C, its derivatives and all of the software built using Ritchie’s technology.
That said, I feel ashamed that I do not (yet) own a copy of K&R’s book, but in honor of Ritchie, I will get one.
Steve Jobs and Apple even owe this man, considering that (as is overlooked by just about every source) OSX is entirely Linux and Unix based, from the kernal to the command line.
Nitpick: OSX is BSD/Mach based, not Linux. They do use a bunch of utilities from GNU/Linux though, like BASH & GCC (sort of), so you’re not that far off.
C is probably going to stay around in some form or another forever, due to it’s simplicity to port to new platforms, so in a way one could say Dennis is immortal.
I believe Apple are moving away from using Linux (or more specifically GPL) tools and moving towards things under other licenses.
Most of the changes away have been because Apple has a company-wide rule that they will not ship a single line of code released under the GPLv3 (and that includes contributing code from GPLv2 licensed Apple source trees for things like GCC back to the upstream GPLv3 tree)
Steve Jobs dies and the papers go mad, but he would be nothing without the things that Ritchie created. Then just a week later he dies too, but the papers are still on about what a great man(pfft) jobs was.

Three score & ten.
I’d rank D. Ritchie with Bob Pease.
The Old Guard passes.
[Anyway, they got medals and recognition: as offices, labs, and big bucks on pay-day, assuredly — even if there were no parades.]
Three score & ten.
R.I.P. Ritchie, I’ll never forget you for what u gave to my life. Your language will live forever.
It was time that someone give credit to Ritchie. I found very annoying that all the media give so much credit to Steve Jobs but nothing to Ritchie. I am not complaining about the achievements of Steve Jobs; however, Richie did give the community something that without it, we would still being far behind of what we are today.
I’ve hacked my own kernel on a bochs emulator, which surely would have driven me insane if I was forced to do it in asm. I’ve used C99 on Nintendo DS homebrew programs, again places where manipulating multiple cores and sound and graphics chips would have been a manic mess in assembly. Now, I do most of my programing in various forms of ECMA; all of which looks very much like C or C++.
As gamers, we might have gotten up to the 16-bit era on consoles with devkits aimed at asm programers, but after that, they saw the light and looked to C.
As hackers, we may argue on which chip maker is the best in the arm v pic v avr holy war. But most of us have used C to program those chips at some point. Even the arduino language syntax is based on C.
Maybe without Mr Ritchie someone else would have given us a language to do all of these things. But they didn’t have to; because C worked. We could make the same discussion about the UNIX kernel, or his involvement with Multics and dynamic linking and ring-based security. All of the ideas still being used and built upon.
What holds up the universe you ask? Why, it’s a giant turtle. But what holds up the turtle? My friend, it’s turtles all the way down… and then there’s C.

He was very shy. After a talk he gave at Bell Labs in Columbus, Ohio (in the 80’s), I went up to shake his hand. He was very nice, shook my hand, but he could not make eye contact.
I am very sorry that he passed away, and very sorry that not more attention was paid to him while he was alive.
Wow, what a shock… How many lines of C code have been written and compiled since it was first released to the world? Must be in the billions! C is probably being used by someone at this very moment, in every country on Earth. Ritchie created the revolution that married hardware and software and jump started the that *NIX and PC world. He has now passed, and most people will never understand don’t have a clue… Someone already said it. If not appreciated by all, he has become immortal. | http://hackaday.com/2011/10/17/on-the-life-of-dennis-ritchie/?like=1&source=post_flair&_wpnonce=a832ba55c5 | CC-MAIN-2015-22 | refinedweb | 1,739 | 72.36 |
Hello, I am using py++ for the first time to wrap a decent sized C++ library. We've been using SWIG for this library for several years and have recently discovered some significant memory leaks. I upgraded to the latest version of SWIG which resulted in huge increase in compile times and no resolution to the issue. So, I've decided to see if boost would handle the situation better. I am able to successfully generate a wrapper file using py++, however, some of the template instances that are declared in one of the header files are not exposed in the wrapper. I've read several suggestions on the py++ website, and even tried wrapping these template instances in a pyplusplus::aliases namespace as suggested in the py++ "hints" section. This eliminated some warnings, but didn't result in code being added for these objects. Does anyone have an idea of why these instances are not be wrapped? I've included the header files I'm trying to wrap along with my py++ script that I'm using. My environment is: Windows XP SP2 Py++-0.9.0 pygccxml-0.9.0 gcc-xml - binary build that's posted on the ctypes sourceforge site (version is reported as 0.7.0) Thanks in advance, Jeff ____________________________________________________________________________________ Be a better Globetrotter.

BitByteData
A Swift framework with classes for reading and writing bits and bytes.
Installation
BitByteData can be integrated into your project using Swift Package Manager, CocoaPods or Carthage.
Swift Package Manager
To install using SPM, add BitByteData to you package dependencies and specify it as a dependency for your target, e.g.:
import PackageDescription let package = Package( name: "PackageName", dependencies: [ .package(url: "", from: "1.2.0") ], targets: [ .target( name: "TargetName", dependencies: ["BitByteData"] ) ] )
More details you can find in Swift Package Manager's Documentation.
CocoaPods
Add
pod 'BitByteData', '~> 1.2' and
use_frameworks! to your Podfile.
To complete installation, run
pod install.
Carthage
Add to your Cartfile
github "tsolomko/BitByteData" ~> 1.2.
Then run
carthage update.
Finally, drag and drop
BitByteData.framework from
Carthage/Build folder
into the "Embedded Binaries" section on your targets' "General" tab in Xcode.
Usage
Use
ByteReader class to read bytes.
For reading bits there are two classes:
LsbBitReader and
MsbBitReader, which implement
BitReader protocol
for two bit-numbering schemes ("LSB 0" and "MSB 0" correspondingly).
Both
LsbBitReader and
MsbBitReader classes inherit from
ByteReader so you can also use them to read bytes
(but they must be aligned, see documentation for more details).
Writing bits is implemented in two classes
LsbBitWriter and
MsbBitWriter (again, for two bit-numbering schemes).
They both conform to
BitWriter protocol.
Note: All readers and writers aren't structs, but classes intentionally.
This is done to make it easier to pass them as arguments to functions and to eliminate unnecessary copying and
inouts.
Documentation
Every function or type of BitByteData's public API is documented. This documentation can be found at its own website.
Contributing
Whether you find a bug, have a suggestion, idea or something else, please create an issue on GitHub.
If you'd like to contribute code, please create a pull request on GitHub.
Note: If you are considering working on BitByteData, please note that Xcode project (BitByteData.xcodeproj)
was created manually and you shouldn't use
swift package generate-xcodeproj command.

Total:
Releases
1.2.0 - Apr 29, 2018
- Updated to support Swift 4.1.
- Added
bytesLeftand
bytesReadcomputed properties to
ByteReader.
- Added
int(fromBytes:),
uint16(fromBytes:),
uint32(fromBytes:), and
uint64(fromBytes:)functions to
ByteReader(and bit readers, since they are inherited from
ByteReader).
- Added
byte(fromBits:),
uint16(fromBits:),
uint32(fromBits:), and
uint64(fromBits:)functions to
LsbBitReaderand
MsbBitReader, as well as
BitReaderprotocol.
int(fromBits:)function now has a precondition that its argument doesn't exceed
Intbit width.
- Reverted "disable symbol stripping" change from 1.1.1 update, since underlying problem in Carthage was fixed.
- Small updates to documentation.
1.2.0-test.3 - Apr 9, 2018
- Updated to Swift 4.1/Xcode 9.3.
- Reverted change, that explicitly disabled STRIP_INSTALLED_PRODUCT Xcode project setting to workaround Carthage problems with archiving.
- Small updates to documentation.
1.2.0-test.2 - Mar 17, 2018
In this second test release several precondition checks introduced in the previous test release were corrected, as well as more missing functions were added.
1.2.0-test - Mar 14, 2018
The main purpose of the upcoming 1.2.0 update is to add missing functionality in terms of return types and bit/byte reading.
Also, the current plan is to wait for the 4.1 release of Swift language and only then release 1.2.0 update, so any necessary modifications required by the new version of Swift can be released without delay.
1.1.1 - Mar 4, 2018
- Added missing documentation for
bitsLeftand
bitsReadproperties.
- Temporary disable symbol stripping in Xcode project to prevent symbols being stripped in archives published on GitHub Releases, until Carthage releases an update that solves this issue (these archives are generated by Carthage). | http://swiftpack.co/package/tsolomko/BitByteData | CC-MAIN-2018-39 | refinedweb | 619 | 50.94 |

Implements Ipopt::SchurData.
Returns two vectors that are needed for matrix-vector multiplication of B and P.
The index is the row, the first vector are the indices of non-zero components, in this row of B, the second vector gives the numbers in B(row,indices)

Functions specific to IndexSchurData.
This function is for adding data to a SchurData object. It takes a set of column-indices a value v and adds indices accordingly. If the column is already set in the data, it stays at the same place, otherwise the new indices are added at the bottom, in the order specified by the indices. The vector delta_u_sort returns the actual sorting so that the user knows how to place the new values inside the elongated delta_u vector. These places are in C++ index style, so they correspond exactly to the indices used for the C++-array of the delta_u DenseVector
returns a vector that holds the accumulated length of each vector component: v_len[0] = v.GetComp(0)->Dim() v_len[i] = sum(k=0..i, v.GetComp(k)->Dim())

Scratch vs. C
hello, C
The CS50 Library
Data Types
More C
Now that weve explored some basic programming concepts with Scratch, we can try to use the same
ideas with a more traditional language, C.
Recall that last week, to run our program in Scratch, we would begin with a block that read when
greenflagclicked .
Our example of having Scratch say hello,world can be translated to the following C:
#include <stdio.h>
int main(void)
{
printf("hello,world\n");
}
printf is the equivalent of say in Scratch, and it will print whatever is inside the parentheses.
We notice a bit of syntax, like the double quotes and the semicolon, but we can focus on one
piece at a time.
In Scratch, say was a function that took an argument, or parameter, and the equivalent line in C is:
printf("hello,world\n");
The \n prints a new line, like pressing enter after typing out that message.
And in the case of loops, in Scratch we might have a forever block that does something over and

Assemblies in .NET
How Can Assemblies Avoid DLL Hell?
Most assemblies are private. Hence, each client application refers assemblies from its own installation folder. So, even though there are multiple versions of the same assembly, they will not conflict with each other. Consider the following example:
When you create a private assembly, an assembly is installed in a subdirectory of the application, so even if two assemblies have the same name there is no problem because an application will always refer to its own assembly. Now, consider the case when you develop a shared assembly. In this case, it is important to know how assemblies are versioned. All assemblies have a version number in this form:
major.minor.build.revision
How Do I Create Shared Assemblies?
The following steps are involved in creating shared assemblies:
- Create your DLL/EXE source code.
- Generate a unique assembly name using SN utility.
- Sign your DLL/EXE with the private key by modifying the Assembly Info file.
- Compile your DLL/EXE.
- Place the resultant DLL/EXE in a global assembly cache by using the AL utility.
How Do I Create a Unique Assembly Name?
Microsoft now uses a public-private key pair to uniquely identify an assembly. These keys are generated by using a utility called SN.exe (SN stands for shared name). The most common syntax of it is:
sn -k mykeyfile.key
where k represents that you want to generate a key and the file name following is the file in which the keys will be stored.
How Do I Sign My DLL/EXE?
Before placing the assembly into a shared cache, you need to sign it by using the keys you just generated. You mention the signing information in a special file called AssemblyInfo. Open the file from VS.NET solution explorer and change it to include the following line:
[assembly:AssemblyKeyFile("file_path")]
Now, recompile the project and the assembly will be signed for you.
Note: You also can supply the key file information during a command line compilation via the /a.keyfile switch.
How Do I Place the Assembly in a Shared Cache?
Microsoft has provided a utility called AL.exe to actually place your assembly in shared cache:
AL /i:my_dll.dll
Now, the utility will place your DLL at the proper location.
Hands On...
Now that you understand the basics of assemblies, you can apply your knowledge by developing a simple shared assembly. In this example, you will create a C#.NET component called SampleGAC (GAC stands for Global Assembly Cache). You also will create a key file named sample.key. You will sign your component with this key file and place it in the Global Assembly Cache.
Step 1: Creating your sample component
Here is the code for the component. It just includes one method that returns a string.
using System; namespace BAJComponents { public class Sample { public string GetData() { return "hello world"; } } }
Step 2: Generate a key file
To generate the key file, issue the following command at the command prompt.
sn -k sample.key
This will generate the key file in the same folder.
Step 3: Sign your component with the key
Now, you will sign the assembly with the key file you just created.
csc sampleGAC.cs /t:library /a.keyfile:sample.key
Step 4: Host the signed assembly in the Global Assembly Cache
You will use the AL utility to place the assembly in the Global Assembly Cache:
AL /i:sampleGAC.dll
After hosting, the assembly just goes to the WINNT\Assembly folder and you will find your assembly listed there. Note how the assembly folder is treated differently than normal folders.
Step 5: Test that your assembly works
Now, create a sample client application that uses your shared assembly. Just create a sample code as listed below:
using System; using BAJComponents; public class SampleTest { static void main() { sample x= new sample(); string s= x.getdata(); console.writeline(s); } }
Compile the above code by using:
csc sampletest.cs /t:exe /r:<assembly_dll_path_here>
Now, copy the resulting EXE in any other folder and run it. It will display "Hello World", indicating that it is using your shared assembly.

Sammer, This line - csc sampleGAC.cs /t:library /a.keyfile:sample.key is incorrect and wont work with vs.Net2005. Please post correct and tested code. This is upsetting because there are people out there that become so confused when they follow a tut and they have to debug it. Thanks...

What is ASP.NET?
By: Ram Babu Printer Friendly Format
ASP.NET is the platform that you use to create Web applications and Web services that run under IIS. ASP.NET is not the only way to create a Web application. Other technologies, notably the CGI, also enable you to create Web applications. What makes ASP.NET special is how tightly it is integrated with the Microsoft server, programming, data access, and security tools.
ASP.NET provides a high level of consistency across Web application development. In a way, it is similar to the level of consistency that Microsoft Office brought to desktop applications. ASP.NET is part of the .NET Framework and is made up of several different components.
Visual Studio .NET Web development tools. These include visual tools for designing Web pages and application templates, project management, and deployment tools for Web applications.
The System.Web namespaces. These are part of the .NET Framework, and include the programming classes that deal with Web-specific items such as HTTP requests and responses, browsers, and e-mail.
Server and HTML controls. These are the user-interface components that you use to gather information from and provide responses to users.
In addition to the preceding components, ASP.NET also uses the following, more general programming components and Windows tools. These items aren' t part of ASP.NET. However, they are key to ASP.NET programming.
Microsoft Internet Information Services (IIS). As mentioned in the previous section, IIS hosts Web applications on the Windows server.
The Microsoft Visual Basic .NET, Microsoft Visual C#, and JScript programming languages. These three languages have integrated support in Visual Studio .NET for creating Web applications.
The .NET Framework. This is the complete set of Windows programming classes; they include the ASP.NET classes as well as classes for other programming tasks such as file access, data type conversion, array and string manipulation, and so on.
ADO.NET database classes and tools. These components provide access to Microsoft SQL Server and ODBC databases. Data access is often a key component of Web applications.
Microsoft Application Center Test (ACT). This Visual Studio .NET component provides an automated way to stress-test Web applications.
ASP.NET is the most complete platform for developing Web applications that run under IIS. However, it is important to remember that ASP.NET is not platform-independent. Because it is hosted under IIS, ASP.NET must run on Windows servers. To create Web applications that run on non-Windows/IIS servers, such as Linux/Apache, you must use other tools—generally CGI. | https://java-samples.com/showtutorial.php?tutorialid=974 | CC-MAIN-2020-29 | refinedweb | 428 | 52.97 |
So far, we have worked pretty much exclusively with simple primitive variables, such as integers and doubles, that each can store one value. In this lesson, we will cover arrays, which can store multiple values.
Imagine having a class of three students, each of whom has just taken the final exam of the class. The teacher has graded each person’s test and wants to store that data somewhere. Assuming each student’s grade is an integer between 0 and 100, you can imagine storing this data in the following way:
int student1 = 95; int student2 = 78; int student3 = 83;
However, this is obviously not very efficient. Now imagine if you had to store this kind of data for thousands, or even millions of students. This would clearly be a disaster. This is where more advanced data structure come into play. An array can store multiple values under a single declared instance of type array. It can sometimes be thought of as a numbered list.
The syntax for declaring an array is simple:
int num; // This is how to create an normal integer variable. int[] array; // This is how to create an array of integers.
In the two lines of code above, we have created two new variables. The array is created in a similar way to the
int, except that there is a pair of square brackets
[] after specifying the int type. This tells the computer that this variable is an array and does not just hold one value of type
int, but can hold multiple values. Currently, neither one holds any values because they have not been initialized. To create an array with initial values, do the following:
array = {5, 6, 7}; // Assigns the array three values: 5, 6, and 7.
The array is initialized by having values separated by commas and surrounded by curly brackets. Here are some more examples of declaring an array:
int[] arr1 = {5, 6, 7}; // Joining the two steps together into one line. int[] arr2 = {}; // You can create an array with no values. String[] arr3 = {"hi"}; // An array that stores strings. Scanner[] arr4; // You can even have an array of Scanners!
Going back to the first example of storing student grades, we can create an array for that data by doing the following:
int[] studentGrades = {95, 78, 83};
Now that we have stored the data, what can we do with it? Let’s try accessing some of the data stored in the array. If we want to get the score of Student 1, we will have to look for the first value in the array.
int score = studentGrades[0]; // Assigns score the first value in the array.
Similar to when creating an array, you need to include square brackets
[] when you want to access a specific value in the array. However, when accessing elements, you need to include an integer value (known as an index) between 0 (inclusive) and the size of the array (exclusive) between the square brackets to specify which value you want. The index 0 would give you the first element in the array, the index 1 would give you the second, and so on, all the way to the end, where the index n - 1 will give you the nth and final element in the array, where n represents the size of the array. So, if the size of the array was 20, the index 19 would give you the last value (20th) in that array.
In the example with the student grades, this table shows what value is at each index:
If we want to modify values in an array, it is pretty much the exact same as modifying the value of a normal primitive variable. Let’s say the teacher was very generous with curving the students’ grades.
studentGrades[0] = 100; // changed from 95 to 100 studentGrades[1] += 20; // changed from 78 to 98 studentGrades[2]++; // changed from 83 to 84
All of these operations are exactly the same as we have learned. The only difference is that we specify the index of the array to tell the computer which value we want changed.
If we want to give everyone in the class a 10 point boost to their scores, we can use a for loop to traverse through the whole array, regardless of its size. This way, we avoid having to manually go through each index of the array, which would be terribly inefficient the larger the array becomes.
for (int i = 0; i < studentGrades.length; i++) { studentGrades[i] += 10; }
Notice the
.length in the for loop header. This gives us the size of the array and allows us to traverse through all of the indices of the array. Even if you know the size of the array (such as 3 for
studentGrades), it is always best to use
.length in these cases or else you put your code at risk if the array ever changes size.
Also, you must remember that since indices start at 0, the last element in an array would not be at
arr[arr.length] but instead at
arr[arr.length - 1].
Earlier in this lesson, we covered how to create an array with initial values by doing something like this:
int[] arr = {5, 6, 7};
However, most of the time, we don’t want to create an array with initial values in it, or we want to create a really large array that would be impossible to go through and manually specify values. For example, what if we wanted to create an array of size 1000 that stored the numbers 0 through 999?
int[] arr = {0, 1, 2, 3, 4, ... 997, 998, 999};
This would be one way to do it, but obviously very inefficient. This is where a new way of initializing arrays comes in. The more common way of creating an array is by specifying the size of the array upon initialization, which then automatically creates an array of that size with default values at each index (default for integers: 0, default for booleans: false, etc.). Then, once you create your array of a given size, you can use a for loop to efficiently assign values to each index. Here is how you initialize an array in this way:
int[] arr1 = new int[1000]; // Creates an int array of size 1000 double[] arr2 = new double[30]; // Creates a double array of size 30 // and so on...
The first part (to the left of the equals sign) is the same, but the right side is different. Similar to how in the last lesson, to create a new Scanner, you have to use the
new keyword, creating an array is the same. After that, you retype the same thing with the type of data you’re storing (int, double, String) followed by square brackets (
int[],
double[]), although this time you have an integer in between the brackets to specify the size of the array. An array has a fixed size, so once you specify this size, there is no way to change it without creating a new array by doing the
= new int[/* *SIZE* */] syntax.
So, to create an array storing the numbers 0 to 999, all we have to do is the following:
int[] arr = new int[1000]; for (int i = 0; i < arr.length; i++) { arr[i] = i; }
If you ever need to print out an array in a nice format, use the following code (first, add
import java.util.Arrays to the beginning of your file):
System.out.println(Arrays.toString(arr)); // Output: [0, 1, 2, 3, ... 998, 999]
The last thing we are covering in this lesson is 2D arrays. Here is an example 2D array:
int[][] arr = {{1, 2}, {8, 5}, {2, 4, 6}}; // This can be visualized as: // 1 2 // 8 5 // 2 4 6
We can create 2D arrays in Java simply by having two pairs of square brackets. The first square brackets represent the number of rows and the second pair represents the number of columns in the array. Here are a few examples:
int[][] arr = new int[2][3]; // Creates an array of 2 rows by 3 columns System.out.println(arr.length + " " + arr[0].length); // Output: 2 3 // Traverses through the whole 2D array for (int i = 0; i < arr.length; i++) { for (int j = 0; j < arr[i].length; i++) { System.out.print(arr[i][j] + " "); } System.out.println(); }
2D arrays are very useful in many ways when a numbered list simply isn’t good enough to represent the data that you have. They can be used to represent grids, matrices, images, and much, much more. While they may seem overly complicated at first, you will quickly be able to understand how they work with practice.
Arrays are a fundamental part of programming in any language and it is important that you fully understand how the work. In the next lesson, we will be continuing to work with arrays.
Lesson Quiz
1. What is the output to the console?
int[] arr = new int[5]; for (int i = 1; i < arr.length; i++) { arr[i] = arr[i - 1] + i; System.out.print(arr[i] + " "); }
2. What is the output to the console?
int[][] arr = {{1, 2, 3}, {10}, {}, {4, 8}}; for (int i = 0; i < arr.length; i++) { for (int j = 0; j < arr[i].length; j++) { System.out.print(arr[i][j] + " "); } }

How to vary the color along a stoke
Hi all,
I am trying to vary the color along a path2D from a lookup table. Has anyone else tried this or can give me some advice on this?
Joey
Hey, I've been looking into this using the Paint interface, however I have found that It is not suitable to solve my problem and its not realy working. The first attempt that I have tried at this has been to set an array of points, each with a color, I then use a gradientPaint to interpolate the color between the two points, the code for this is below.
import java.awt.BasicStroke;
import java.awt.BorderLayout;
import java.awt.Color;
import java.awt.GradientPaint;
import java.awt.Graphics2D;
import java.awt.geom.Path2D;
import java.awt.geom.Point2D;
import java.awt.image.BufferedImage;
import java.util.Vector;
import javax.swing.ImageIcon;
import javax.swing.JFrame;
import javax.swing.JLabel;
public class StrokeTesting
{
public static void main(String input[])
{
//Create an image and get Graphics2D
BufferedImage img = new BufferedImage(600, 600,
BufferedImage.TYPE_INT_ARGB);
Graphics2D g = img.createGraphics();
//Vectors to hold points+colors
Vector
Vector
//Add Points
points.add(new Point2D.Double(100,100));
points.add(new Point2D.Double(200,500));
points.add(new Point2D.Double(500,500));
points.add(new Point2D.Double(100,400));
points.add(new Point2D.Double(90,200));
//Set Colors
colors.add(Color.WHITE);
colors.add(Color.YELLOW);
colors.add(Color.green);
colors.add(Color.RED);
colors.add(Color.BLUE);
//Set Stroke
g.setStroke(new BasicStroke(10, BasicStroke.CAP_ROUND,
BasicStroke.JOIN_ROUND));
Path2D.Double path;
for (int i = 0; i < points.size() - 1; i++)
{
path = new Path2D.Double();
Point2D.Double p1 = points.get(i);
Point2D.Double p2 = points.get(i + 1);
Color c1 = colors.get(i);
Color c2 = colors.get(i + 1);
path.moveTo(p1.x, p1.y);
path.lineTo(p2.x, p2.y);
g.setPaint(new GradientPaint(p1, c1, p2, c2));
g.draw(path);
}
ImageIcon imageHolder = new ImageIcon(img);
JLabel lab = new JLabel(imageHolder);
JFrame f = new JFrame("Testing");
f.setSize(800,600);
f.getContentPane().setLayout(new BorderLayout());
f.getContentPane().add(lab, BorderLayout.CENTER);
f.setVisible(true);
f.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
}
}
This is not a perfect solution as the points can overllap and look kinda funny.Also it does not work that well if you want to vary the color between two points. What I would like to do would be to pass a function an array of colors and an array of points. The program would then draw this and vary the color along the path baised on the colors.
I'm basicly trying to draw a rainbow colored path.
That's a good attempt drawing smaller line segments with a GradientPaint. If this is your attempt at using the Paint interface, then I think you missed the mark.
It sounds like you'll have to create classes that implement the Paint and PaintContext interfaces.
Given my understanding of how Java2D's gradients require user-space shapes to define where on the screen the gradient starts and stops, your Paint implementation will likely require a copy of the path you're trying to draw so that it can fill a Raster object with colors that follow your path.
The downside of Java's Paint interface is that you'd have to create new instances for different paths, and performance will suffer quickly as you add more geometry.
The goal of your PaintContext class would be to receive a rectangle defining a grid of pixels, create a Raster object to hold the pixels, then map that copy of your geometry over the pixel grid, and color the pixels as desired.
It seems that Java just creates boundaries and fills them with your pixels, so handling lines thicker than 1 pixel would be complicated.
Here are some links I came across, they're difficult to find, and I hope they help.-...
The path2d is basically a vector. You may want to paint it with some color.
Painting basically takes place when you draw() or fill() the path.
Take a look at the java.awt.Paint interface.

LONDON (ICIS)--?xml:namespace>
“We would like to confirm that our company has begun a sale process for Spolana,” Krzysztof Wojdylo, Anwil marketing manager, said.
Wojdylo added that Anwil is waiting for preliminary offers, which should be submitted by mid-July.
In March, Polish chemical group Zaklady Azotowe Tarnow (ZAT) said it was interested in increasing its capro capacity by acquiring Spolana’s 40,000 tonne/year capro business.
ZAT said it is also interested in finding a joint-venture partner to purchase Spolana’s 130,000 tonne/year PVC business.
Meanwhile, Anwil’s majority owner – Polish refining, chemical and petrochemical group PKN Orlen – is scheduling another attempt to sell its 90.35% stake in Anwil.
However, in late May PKN Orlen said it might opt to retain the 340,000 tonne/year PVC side of the company and only sell its nitrogen fertilizer business.
Anwil acquired an initial 81.78% stake in Spolana in October 2006 from Czech Unipetrol – itself majority-owned by PKN Orlen – for koruny (Kc) 640m ($38.1m, €26.3m) and a pledge to cover Spolana debts totalling Kc660m.

2008 UM-D Programming Contest - Notes and Hints
Problem A
Judges wanted you to simply traverse the maze, while noting the length of the path. The easiest way to do this is to use recursion with a hint of backtracking.
Judges tweaked the input to ensure that any valid program, even one that explores every possible path till the end will not get "Time Limit Exceeded". Turns out they didn't need to do that -- every successful solutions ran fast even on the largest, most evil input that judges could think up.
Watch out for assumptions -- two or more ways through the maze may share the same path at some point. If you are exploring a longer way and mark it permanently as visited, you may miss out on a shorter way that shares the same path at some point.
Sample Code Skeleton:
int findShortestPath(int row, int col, int path, int minpath)
{
if (out of bounds, hit a wall, or path is longer than the shortest one found so far)
return minimum path length;
if (reached the end of maze)
compare path length and min path length, return one whichever's smaller;
mark path as visited by i.e. assigning a number to it, like path length so far;
findShortestPath(row,col+1,path+1,minpath);//go right;
findShortestPath(row+1,col,path+1,minpath);//go down;
findShortestPath(row,col-1,path+1,minpath);//go left;
findShortestPath(row-1,col,path+1,minpath);//go up;
return minpath;
}
Problem B
There are a few ways to solve this problem. The notable ones are:
O(n log n) - sort names alphabetically, then go through the list once, noting which name "run" is the longest one so far. At the end output the name and the run.
O(n
2
) - for each name A in the list, compare it to every other name B in the list. Keep a counter table of how many names B show up for name A. At the end find max value in the counter table and print out the results.
Watch out for case with only one name, depending on how you code things, it may mess things up.
Judges were nice this time and accepted O(n
2
) solutions.
Problem C
The judges were evil and have hand-selected sample input to trick you into a simpler but incorrect solution (sum or speeds divided by sum of times). Note that if you divide speed by time, you get acceleration for your result, when problem specs asked for speed.
Correct solution was for each interval to multiply v*t to get the distance travelled for that interval. Then, to take the sum of all distances travelled and divide it by the sum of times to get the average speed, which is the answer.
Judges got output-tricky by requesting you to output two significant figures after the dot. One way to do it in C++ is:
#include <iomanip>
using namespace std;
cout<<fixed<<setprecision(2)<<answer<<endl;
Just for the record, you could also write a rounding function, such as below, but then you'd have to write extra code to print dots and 0s at the end when needed, i.e. for "3.00".
#include <cmath>
double round(double x)
{
return floor(100*x+0.5)/100;
}
Judges' trick: a few people have missed that in problem statement v and t were to be real numbers, not integers. Judges have used only integers in the sample input to throw you off. Just another example of evilness and things to watch out for.
Problem D
This was an easy yet somewhat tedious program to implement. Originally judges allowed for input from 0 to 100, but later changed it to 0 to 99, which made for a slightly smaller number of cases to consider.
Special cases to watch out for in output -- Zero, One hundred
Recall that you can call toupper(), tolower() functions to change letter case. You can also subtract 32 from small letter to get its capital letter and add 32 to capital to get its smaller case.
char chr='B';
chr+=32;
cout<<chr;//'b'
Problem E
Nobody solved E during the contest.
Dennis originally tried to think up the easiest problem possible. For example, how about comparing three values together and then reporting results of comparison ? Well, to make it more interesting, boxes were invented. Originally no box rotations were allowed. But later an instructor suggested to allow for box rotations, and so that's how the problem came to life. That's also how it became to look more difficult than it meant to be.
To solve this, first find box's width, length, and height. One way to do this is to compute the difference of appropriate points, like (A-D), (B-A), (E-A). Another to do this is to "move" the box so that point D is at the origin, by subtracting appropriate values from all points, and then take values A, C and H for width, length and height.
Now, you can compare two boxes directly. To account for box rotations, try all possible permutations of box dimensions for one of the boxes, while keeping the other one static. There are total of 6 permutations to try. Care should be taken to report final results correctly, as you'll have 6 answers, one for each rotation.
Another way is to first sort the sides so that they are in order smallest to largest, and then compare the boxes directly.
Tricks to watch out for: for a box to fit inside its dimensions had to be strictly less than the corresponding dimensions for the other box. Otherwise the box edges would clash.
Tricks to watch out for: judges wanted to separate cases by a blank line. This means printing a blank line between cases, but making sure there are no blank lines before the first case or after the last case. Think about that!
Make sure you number cases correctly, this can be a bit tricky to code at first. | http://www-personal.umd.umich.edu/~dennismv/events/2008umd/judges_notes.html | CC-MAIN-2014-15 | refinedweb | 1,011 | 69.21 |

Hi All,
Sorry if i am posting a generic question that has already been answered. I would appreciate if you can help me to get an answer or direct me to the right resource/forum/topic.
As part of our project, we are using 3des algorithm to encrypt a pin. I am very new to encryption world and was wondering what are my options to securely store this encryption key, so that i can use it in my class for the encryption logic. Do i store it in some kinda repository/database or a encryption key management system?
Appreciate your help and thank you in advance.

We need a lot more detail to help you. Where is the PIN stored? Where is the key stored? What is encrypting the key supposed to accomplish? Who (what kind of attack) are you trying to protect against? What kind of application is this - desktop, web app, something else?

Thanks for your response.
This is we-app using flex front-end with Spring framework, where user enters a pin as a password, which is then sent to spring bean which uses a key (question is related to storing this key somewhere) to encrypt this pin into a pin-block which is then sent to another interface via web-service for validation.
Here's the sample code i wrote for 3Des encryption from examples i found online. Please let me know if you see any major issues with the code as well. I have pin hard-coded in this code right now, but will be getting this from the front-end. I am concerned about storing the encryption key. Don't want to keep in the class or in properties files. Please let me know if i still lack details in my description about the issue.
Thank you all for taking out time and looking at my post. Appreciate all your feedback.

The big question is still "why does the PIN need to be encrypted?" I'm assuming you're using HTTPS when transferring it from the client, and also for the web service during validation (or -even better- you're using WS-Security encryption). So encrypting the PIN makes a difference only while the PIN is in memory on your servers, - where it's hard to attack.
Encrypting something replaces the problem of protecting some text with the problem of protecting the encryption key - which is not inherently simpler to solve.

You have got a number of options with storing the key in a HSM being the most secure. Else you can store it in a key store or even a Key encryption Key (KEK) option can be used.

Grails and web service development with Metro
By Martin Grebac on Jun 18, 2008
I searched through my blog entries, and realized that I somehow forgot to blog about the Metro Plugin for Grails framework I introduced in the beginning of this year. So, this is an attempt to do a (late) little advertising.
If you use Grails, you are certainly aware of it's plugin system. I decided to wrote a little Metro plugin which enables you to expose your Groovy/Grails classes as Metro web services in a simple and easy way using natural Grails commands, such as
grails create-service
and natural Metro annotations, such as
@WebService, like this:
import javax.jws.\*
@WebService(targetNamespace="")
class CalculatorService {
@WebMethod
def int add(int i, int j) {
return i+j;
}
@WebMethod
def multiply(int i, int j) {
return i\*j;
}
}
Those are the only things you need to do to develop web services with Grails after installing the plugin. You can find exact installation/how to use instructions at plugin website. Currently I host the plugin as a subproject of JAX-WS Commons project, but am working on making sure it is hosted at Grails plugin site as well.
Btw, I recently found also these instructions on how to use the Metro Grails plugin to develop contract-first (WSDL first) web services, which gives exactly the areas where I planned to improve the plugin in. So in future, the instructions might get even more simple. | https://blogs.oracle.com/mgrebac/tags/service | CC-MAIN-2015-32 | refinedweb | 245 | 53.65 |
So its time for a fun little announcement, my wife and I are having a baby. And we’re so excited! Having a baby presents a novel problem for every parent every time. And that is: “We’re going to have a little human being running around, and that human is going to need a name.” It strikes me as a little weird every time that I have to give a name to anything. Just think about it, this is the name that this person is going to be known by forever. It is an awesome and somewhat ridiculous responsibility. It is a thing that we do out of necessity. After all, we have to distinguish ourselves from one another. Here’s the thing, as a parent, I’m pretty much clueless about what name would be a good baby name.
That’s why I decided to help myself in the way that only a data scientist would think to help themselves out. I decided to build a neural network that predicts the popularity of a name. This is actually a really silly way to come up with names, because it won’t actually tell you whether or not the name is good, it will just tell you whether or not the name has the characteristics of a popular name. But hey, who cares, running the network is a fun way to distract myself from the fact that I will soon be a sleep deprived daddy. So we’ll build out a network.
Before we go hog wild crazy building a neural network that will tell us whether or not a name is good or not, we’ll need data that can be used to train such a network. Fun fact, the government maintains this exact data. They even brag that they have a 100% sample of every name on social security applications for newborns. So this is the data that we’ll use to train our network. You can get it here.
Okay Let’s Code
So the first thing that we’ll need to do is to import keras. Now my keras is using Theano. I have it set up that way because my laptop’s operating system is 32-bit ubuntu, and for some reason TensorFlow doesn’t like that. So anyway, we need to import keras into the workspace. It will also import its backend as well. We’re also going to need pandas and numpy.
from keras.layers import LSTM, Dense, Dropout from keras.models import Sequential import pandas as pd import numpy as np
Next we’ll import the data. From the link above I just took the most recent year, but you can go crazy and discount popularity add the year, whatever you want to do. We’ll keep it simple for this tutorial though. I’m also going to mix up the entries because they are in order from most popular to least popular for girls and then most popular to least popular for boys. Mixing it up will help the neural network learn faster. Otherwise it takes a long time to learn anything but the average. I’m not sure why that helps but it does.
df = pd.read_csv('/home/ryan/Desktop/yob2016.txt',header=None) df = df.sample(frac=1)
So we have names and their popularities at this point, what features are we going to extract to train the model. My thought was that we could use the letters in the name itself. This is kind of a fun idea, because later we can have a network that learns the next appropriate letter and generates names from a seed. But that isn’t what we’re doing today. I’m thinking that we can do that to generate a name, and then use this network to tell us how good that name is.
So let’s write some functions to prepare the data to do that. The first thing that we need to do is to tell the neural network which letters comprise a valid alphabet. This is a surprisingly difficult task when you are coding a neural network for say imitating Shakespeare. That’s because you need to include all of the punctuation, and numbers for acts and lines. Fortunately, we have English names which do not have punctuation so we can get a standard set of English letters, and a space as a padding the sequence.
chars = sorted(list(set('ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZabcdefghijklmnopqqrstuvwxyz '))) char_to_int = dict((c, i) for i, c in enumerate(chars))
Finally, we need to use this alphabet to encode each of the names as a sequence for the neural network. We do this with a helper function. This function encodes a string as a sequence of 15 characters. If there are not enough characters in the string, it will pad the end of the string with blank spaces until we get to 15 characters.
def namer(x): num = 15-len(x) return [char_to_int[char] for char in x+' '*num]
Now that all the pieces are in place, we’ll run this against our data to clean it up so that it is presentable to the neural network.
X = np.array([namer(obj) for obj in df[0]]) X = X.reshape((len(df),15,1)) y = np.array(df[2])
Okay the Data is Clean, Build a neural network!
I used a really dumb architecture. There is an LSTM layer, with a dropout layer attached. We’ll randomly drop 20% of the connections each iteration. This is done as normalization procedure to keep the network on its toes about what it is learning. We then feed that into a hidden layer, which determines the output. Here’s the code:
model = Sequential() model.add(LSTM(256, input_shape=(X.shape[1], X.shape[2]), return_sequences=False)) model.add(Dropout(0.2)) model.add(Dense(256)) model.add(Dense(1))
I train the network to minimize the mean absolute error. I like this loss function because it is very interpretable. Essentially, it says on average how far off our my predictions. In the case that we’re looking at, on average by how many people giving their child that name am I off with my predictions. That last sentence isn’t a great sentence, but its the best that I could do, English teachers forgive me. We then fit the model.
model.compile(loss='mae',optimizer='adam') model.fit(X,y)
I let this bad boy run for a couple of days letting it go for like 32,000 iterations. And it started to produce some reasonable results. I think it needs more. It would go faster on GPU, but I am cheap and running this on my old laptop. I will package it up and post something that you can play with later.
Here’s The Full Code

# Synchronous Request-Response using REST and Apache Kafka
On one of the Innotech’s projects, we received a task to convert asynchronous requests into synchronous ones. Basically, the purpose was to integrate REST and Apache Kafka into the same request.
In more detail, we have two services that communicate with each other. Let’s call them A and B. Service A receives a request from a consumer for data that is stored in service B. Thus, service A sends a request for data to B in REST and waits for the response of this request in Kafka. The user is waiting for data until this response is received.
It appears to be a common problem, and the solution should be in Google or Stack Overflow. We managed to find the solution of a similar problem only in an existing library connecting two servers to Kafka. So the problem was solved using Java, Spring framework and a little IT-wit.
Problem Statement
-----------------
Before beginning implementation, we need to state the problem and understand what we have and what we want to achieve.
We have a *Client* service that will have one end-point. An end-point, in turn, will take a normal string, send it to the second service, and wait for the response in Kafka.
And we have the second service — *Server*. It will receive a REST string from the *Client* service, convert it to UpperCase and return in response by Kafka.
The *Client* service awaits for the response from the *Server*. The user will wait for the result until the response is delivered. Waiting for a response may take a long time. To avoid too high of latency, it is necessary to provide an interrupt timeout, e.g. 10 seconds. But this condition should not be necessary; we should be able to wait indefinitely for a response. But definitely not waiting for 7.5 million years, otherwise the response could be disappointing.
This is an example of how it works. The consumer sends a string to the *Client* service, e.g. “abc123”, and until the response from the *Server* service is delivered, they will be kept hanging. The response which will be returned to the consumer from the *Server* should be “ABC123”. If the wait time exceeds the timeout value, an HTTP code with a 504 (Gateway Timeout) error will be returned instead of the response.
Client Implementation
---------------------
I will only describe the main points. If you need the whole code, there is a link to the repository below.
**SenderReceiver Implementation**
The logic core is a `SenderReceiver` class implementation, which is responsible for the process's rest state until it receives data from the outside.
This class consists of two main methods: a `receive()` method is responsible for resting until data is received, and a `send()` method is responsible for receiving data and waking up the `receive()` method. To understand the current state of the thread, 1) whether resting or waiting (the `receive()` method), or 2) receiving and waking up (the `send()` method), we will create a `boolean` flag called `transfer` and initialize it using the `true` value.
```
private boolean transfer = true;
```
Now let’s implement the `receive()` method:
```
public synchronized void receive() {
while (transfer) {
if (timeout != 0 && start.before(new Date(System.currentTimeMillis() - timeout))) {
timeoutException = new TimeoutException();
Thread.currentThread().interrupt();
return;
}
try {
wait(timeout);
} catch (InterruptedException e) {
Thread.currentThread().interrupt();
}
}
Thread.currentThread().interrupt();
}
```
Since initially the flag `transfer = true`, the process goes into a standby mode until it is woken up by the `send()` method, or milliseconds set in `timeout` elapse.
If the `timeout` value is different from 0, it means that the thread interrupt mechanism by runtime has been set. To do this, we must compare the current time offset by this value with the start time of the thread. If this time is exceeded, we save `TimeoutException()` into a variable which is initially null (we’ll need it later), and terminate the thread. If the `transfer` flag becomes `false` and the thread has not finished waiting using a timeout, we will simply exit the loop and terminate the thread.
You can see that the `timeout` with a value of 0 is unique. If it is 0, the thread will wait indefinitely to wake up. After it is woken up and `transfer` changes to a `false` value, the thread will terminate.
Now, let’s implement the `send()` method:
```
public synchronized void send(final T data) {
transfer = false;
this.data = data;
notifyAll();
}
```
You can see that the `send()` method is quite simple. It receives data from outside, changes our `transfer` flag to `false`, saves the data, and wakes up all the threads that are hanging in `wait()`.
In fact, there is another important auxiliary method called `getData()` which either returns the data stored in `data`, or generates an error if the relevant variable is not null.
```
public T getData() throws TimeoutException {
if (Objects.nonNull(timeoutException))
throw timeoutException;
return data;
}
```
**SenderReceiverMap Implementation**
After we have implemented the mechanism of waiting for a response and waking up once it is delivered, we need to implement a class that will store a set of waits. This is necessary in order to link requests from the *Client* service with responses from the *Server* service. This way, a lot of users can “pull” our end-point simultaneously, and we will return each user the data they requested without getting mixed up. Let’s call this class `SenderReceiverMap`.
Obviously, the responses from the *Server* can be delivered in any order – it depends on the processing time of a particular request. For example, the processing time of one request may be 5 seconds, and of another may be 3 seconds. To be able to look for connections between the thread and the user’s request, we need to label them uniquely. To do this, we must enter an `id` of the request. To perform the search quickly, we need to use Map. Since we are working with threads, we need to use safe collections. Thus, we will get the following:
```
private final ConcurrentMap senderReceiverConcurrentMap;
```
As you can probably guess, `T` is an id type. It can be anything, such as an Integer, String, or UUID. I prefer UUID.
To add a new wait, we need to implement a method which will receive a pre-generated request `id` and which we will additionally `transfer` to the *Server* (more on this later) and timeout.
```
public Thread add(T id, Long timeout) {
SenderReceiver responseWait = new SenderReceiver(timeout);
senderReceiverConcurrentMap.put(id, responseWait);
Runnable task = responseWait::receive;
return new Thread(task);
}
```
`V` is a type of the message data. In our case, it is String. You can see that we create a `SenderReceiver` and add it to the collection with a relevant request id. Then we create a new `Thread()` and immediately return it, so that we can pause it until the data is delivered in the `send()` method of the `SenderReceiver` class.
We will also need methods that can return the required `SenderReceiver` from the `SenderReceiverConcurrentMap`, and check if there is `id` in the `SenderReceiverConcurrentMap`, and a method to remove a request from the `SenderReceiverConcurrentMap`. Review this implementation below, since there is nothing to comment on here.
```
public SenderReceiver get(T id) {
return senderReceiverConcurrentMap.get(id);
}
public Boolean containsKey(T id) {
return senderReceiverConcurrentMap.containsKey(id);
}
public SenderReceiver remove(T id) {
return senderReceiverConcurrentMap.remove(id);
}
```
**Implementing a Request for Data from the Server Service**
Now we will implement a request to the *Server* service via REST, and add its id to the collection together with the wait for the result.
```
public String get(String text) throws TimeoutException {
UUID requestId = UUID.randomUUID();
while (senderReceiverMap.containsKey(requestId)) {
requestId = UUID.randomUUID();
}
String responseFromServer = this.sendText(requestId, text);
System.out.println("REST response from server: " + responseFromServer);
Thread thread = senderReceiverMap.add(requestId, timeout);
thread.start();
try {
thread.join();
} catch (InterruptedException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
String responseKafka;
try {
responseKafka = senderReceiverMap.get(requestId).getData();
} catch (TimeoutException e) {
throw e;
} finally {
senderReceiverMap.remove(requestId);
}
return responseKafka;
}
```
As you can see, we receive a string from the user in this method. Next, we create a request `id` and send it together with the received string. We add the request together with its id to the collection of requests, and run the resulting `Thread`. At this step, the process will freeze until someone “pulls” the `send()` method from the `SenderReceiver` object, which can be found by a particular request `id`.
If someone calls the send() method and sends data to it, or the thread itself terminates via `timeout`, the method will continue to work. It calls `senderReceiverMap.get(requestId).getData()` which will return either `TimeoutException` or the data sent to the `send()` method. All we have to do is to remove the already-processed request from the collection and return the data we received.
**KafkaListener Implementation**
The information explained above makes clear that we only have to call the `send()` method from a particular `SenderReceiver` wait object that can be easily found by its `id`. Since we synchronize requests with `Kafka`, we should call this method when we receive the data from it.
```
@KafkaListener(topics = "${kafka.topic}", groupId = "${kafka.groupId}")
public void listenGroupFoo(ConsumerRecord> record) {
UUID rqId = this.getRqId(record.headers());
if (senderReceiverMap.containsKey(rqId)) {
SenderReceiver stringSenderReceiver = senderReceiverMap.get(rqId);
stringSenderReceiver.send(record.value().getData());
}
}
```
There is nothing complicated here either: from `headers` we obtain a request id required to obtain the relevant `SenderReceiver` from Map, which we will use to call the `send()` method.
As you can see, there is no need to use Kafka for synchronization; we can use any other thread as long as we have a request `id` and the data we want to return. For example, you could use a different message broker, or a totally different REST request. This is a flexible solution, because all you need to do is to call `send()`.
Server Service Implementation
-----------------------------
This is really very simple. Just don’t forget to change the `port` on which the *Server* service will run to ensure it will run simultaneously with the *Client* service. To do this, set the following parameter in the `application.properties`:
```
server.port=8888
```
**End-Point Implementation**
The *Server* service must have an end-point that receives data from the *Client* service and sends the result to Kafka linked with the request `id`.
```
@PostMapping("/test")
public String test(@RequestBody RequestDto request) {
Runnable runnable =
() -> {
System.out.println("Start requestId: " + request.getRequestId() + " text: " + request.getData());
try {
int sleepMs = ThreadLocalRandom.current().nextInt(0, 10000 + 1);
System.out.println("RequestId: " + request.getRequestId() + " sleep: " + sleepMs + "ms");
Thread.sleep(sleepMs);
} catch (InterruptedException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
kafkaMessageSender.send(request.getRequestId(), new KafkaMessage<>(request.getData().toUpperCase()));
System.out.println("End requestId: " + request.getRequestId());
};
Thread thread = new Thread(runnable);
thread.start();
return "Ok!";
}
```
This end-point takes a structure which contains `requestId` — a request `id` and `data` — the data needed to be processed. This is a string in our case. This end-point creates a separate thread, which doesn’t wait for a thread to terminate, but immediately returns an `“Ok!”` string via REST in response. In the thread, we emulate how hard the *Server* works. To do this, we randomly generate the number of milliseconds during which the thread will fall asleep, and after it wakes up it will send data (an uppercase string) to Kafka.
**Implementation of Sending a Message in Kafka**
Sending in Kafka looks like this:
```
public void send(final UUID requestId, final KafkaMessage message) {
ProducerRecord> record = new ProducerRecord<>(topic, message);
record.headers().add(new RecordHeader(RQ\_ID, requestId.toString().getBytes()));
ListenableFuture>> future = kafkaTemplate.send(record);
future.addCallback((success) -> { }, System.out::println );
kafkaTemplate.flush();
}
```
In the `headers`, we set a new `RQ_ID` header where we save a request `id`, and then we just call `send()` where we send the processed data.
This where the *Server* service stops.
Conclusions
-----------
In fact, you don’t have to use REST+Kafka in this solution. As you can see, the solution is universal, and this implementation can easily be changed to fit any interaction, whether it is REST+REST, or Kafka+Kafka, or even pigeon mail.

Introduction
Breaking customers into groups is a natural tendency. Companies want to know who are their best customers, who are their worst customers, who has potential, who is new, and so on. Marketing and sales departments do this regularly and often. Their goal is to expend limited effort to achieve maximum return (sales, in this case).
Classifying and grouping customers may be a natural function of human nature and business operations, but doing it well is a subject of study, discussion, and practice. One type of segmentation modeling built into wizards in IBM SPSS Statistics is recency, frequency, and monetary value (RFM) segmentation. RFM is a proven and widely used method for dividing customers into groupings based on their behaviors. A quick scan of the customer list when grouped by the RFM score shows you who your best customers are and who your bad or dead customers are.
RFM modeling is not the only way of segmenting customers, and it isn't necessarily the best way. It is, however, a good method of segmenting customers that anyone can easily understand and put to use quickly.
Knowing how your customers break into groups is useful. You can use that information to predict customer behavior in the near future. Even more useful is monitoring how individual customers' RFM scores change over time. Using that knowledge, you can change business processes to maximize a customer's life cycle. And you can glean all of this information from an easy-to-use wizard in SPSS Statistics.
RFM models
If you are not in marketing, you might not have heard of RFM segmentation. No worries, it's easy to grasp:
- Recency
Recency refers to how long ago a customer placed their last order. This metric is used, because in many situations, it has been shown that customers who last ordered a long time ago are far less likely to order from you again compared to customers who ordered more recently.
- Frequency
Frequency refers to how many times a customer ordered from you over his or her lifetime. This metric is used, because someone who has ordered from you once is far less likely to order again compared to someone who has ordered from you many times. Frequency is sometimes tweaked a bit. After review and examination in your operations, you may come up with a slightly different definition of frequency. For example, you might use the number of orders per year rather than orders over an entire lifetime. Another variant is to use orders only over a certain value in the frequency calculation (negating small orders and the effect that some customers might have by placing many tiny orders, which drives up processing, delivery, and receivables costs).
- Monetary value
Monetary value refers to the worth of the customer. Most RFM analyses use either gross revenue or net profit over the lifetime of the customer. Which you use depends on the opinion of influential people in the company. You can define monetary value other ways as well. Using net profit per order may change the outcome. Seeing the difference in how a customer is ranked between the different monetary value metrics can be insightful.
Having defined the R, F, and M, let's look at the model.
Think of each category (R, F, or M) as an ordered list of customers based on the value of the metric. Divide that ordered list into equal parts—typically, three or five, but any number will work. For example, customers who order most frequently will all receive a 5 out of 5; customers who ordered only one time will get a 1 out of 5.
Use the same ranking system for the other metrics. Each customer then has a three-number score, such as 114, 352, or 445. In the default SPSS Statistics case, the lower each number, the better. Though simple in outcome, many industries use RFM models for quick but powerful segmentation. RFM modeling comes originally from the direct marketing industry (think catalogs by mail). The modern equivalent to mail order catalogs is e-commerce. Companies use RFM modeling to send targeted offers to get customers to come back to the site and maintain name recognition by email.
Another variant industry using RFM is business-to-business distribution. Here, a business can use knowledge about the customer to determine price lists—more discounts to more active and valuable customers. One could also use recency to quickly see when good customers stop ordering, and then prepare an offer to get them to come back.
Historical analysis using RFM
A single RFM model is a snapshot in time. Comparing several models over time is a way to model the customer lifecycle.
Seeing how customers move from different RFM classes over their lifespan gives marketing and salespeople a lot of insight into customer behavior. Often, several tracks are visible. Knowing how different types of customers progress through the RFM model over time provides a foundation for altering business processes, making marketing offers or moving direct sales resources to the point of greatest impact.
For example, you may notice that new customers in one industry enter at an RFM score of 513 (meaning they are recent, not frequent, and have a medium value if scored out of 5). Their next move could be an improved RFM score of 534.
Next, you could see a split. Some customers could go down, while others go up in their RFM scores. Determining the difference between such customers could result in designing better offers, incentives, or service programs that get more customers onto the good track.
Keeping a data table where you records each customer's RFM score every time you run the models is the easiest way to do this.
Other segmentation modeling techniques
Before I dive into how to use SPSS Statistics wizards to create an RFM model, let me describe some of the other ways to segment customers in this tool. As you would expect, there are many ways of grouping customers, and SPSS Statistics supports many of the statistical processes used to accomplish the task. Clicking the Analyze menu, you can see several general categories of statistical analysis, including one labeled Classify (see Figure 1).
Figure 1. The expanded Classify submenu
(View a larger version of Figure 1.)
The Classify submenu shows the main algorithms available. These more advanced options will be useful to you when you move to creating custom segmentation models of your customers. However, their effective use does require a moderate level of statistical knowledge and, in reality, will be a learning process as you adapt them to fit the needs of your organization and the data you possess.
RFM analysis in SPSS Statistics
Let's get to work. Before you start in SPSS Statistics, you need to gather your data, which you extract from your transactional systems. The type of data and the low complexity of the query you need might surprise you. Using some fairly basic queries that return the count of transactions, the sum of the amount, and the maximum value for the date, gather data that represents the:
- Customer number or other unique identifier;
- Last order date for each customer;
- Number of transactions that customer has had; and
- Total revenue for the customer.
As mentioned, you can use other definitions for the number of transactions and the total revenue for each customer. But the above list is a good starting point.
When the data is put together, it might look something like Figure 2. In this example, the data is in a spreadsheet, but you can have it in other formats. Just make sure that SPSS Statistics can read that file type.
Figure 2. Example of a data file in a spreadsheet
With the data file put together, you are ready to start the analysis:
- Start SPSS Statistics, then make a connection to the data file.
You see the familiar Data Editor window filled with your customer file, as shown in Figure 3.
Figure 3. The data file now in the SPSS Statistics Data Editor window
(View a larger version of Figure 3.)
- Click Direct Marketing > Choose Technique.
The Direct Marketing window appears (see Figure 4).
Figure 4. Figure 4. The Direct Marketing window
- Double-click Help identify my best contacts (RFM Analysis).
- In the RFM Analysis: Data Format window (see Figure 5), select Customer data, and then click Continue.
Figure 5. Data organization choices
The multi-tabbed RFM Analysis from Customer Data window appears in which you specify all the parameters for the RFM modeling process.
- Click the Variables tab, shown in Figure 6.
This tab has four data elements that you must define for the RFM modeling process to work. You must tell SPSS Statistics which variable in the incoming data (think columns in the spreadsheet) translate to the last transaction date, the number of transactions, and the amount.
Figure 6. Defining data elements for RFM modeling
- After you map the data variables to the modeling input variables, include an identifier so that the model can give a score to each customer. For this example, specify the Customer ID field from the spreadsheet (see Figure 7).
Figure 7. Specifying the Customer ID field
- Click the Binning tab, and then select the number of bins you want from the Recency, Frequency, and Monetary lists.
Binning refers to how many bins, or divisions, you want for each metric. The default for each metric is 5, which is a common number to use in real life. For simplicity, I adjusted my examples to work with 3 (see Figure 8).
Figure 8. Selecting the number of divisions on the Binning tab
- In the Binning Method area, select Nested or Independent, as appropriate.
The option you choose alters where people are placed for the frequency and monetary value scores. One method is not necessarily better than the other. Making a flow chart of the difference and discussing the procedure with your business users and decision-makers is the best way to decide. When you do make a decision on which method to use, stick with it for subsequent modeling so the comparisons over time will be valid.
- Click the Save tab.
- Choose where to write the model output (see Figure 9). For this example, use the default output.sav.
I usually select Write a new data file in the Location area, and then click Browse to name a new file. The only format for this file is the native SPSS Statistics .sav format.
Figure 9. Saving the output
- Click the Output tab, as shown in Figure 10.
This tab controls the output that is displayed in SPSS Statistics Viewer. Selections and changes on this tab do not affect the output file you indicated on the Save tab.
Figure 10. The Output tab
- Click OK to run the RFM model.
The output data will look like Figure 11 in the Data Editor after you run the modeling procedure.
Figure 11. The output.sav file in the SPSS Statistics Data Editor window
(View a larger version of Figure 11.)
After the modeling process is complete, SPSS Statistics Viewer displays windows that look like Figure 12, Figure 13, and Figure 14. You must access the output data file separately using the Data Editor window.
Figure 12. Screen in SPSS Statistics Viewer that results from the RFM modeling process (1 of 3)
(View a larger version of Figure 12.)
Figure 13. Screen in SPSS Statistics Viewer that results from the RFM modeling process (2 of 3)
(View a larger version of Figure 13.)
Figure 14. Screen in SPSS Statistics Viewer that results from the RFM modeling process (3 of 3)
(View a larger version of Figure 14.)
Use the charts and graphs in the viewer window to communicate how the model is presenting data to your analysts and business decision-makers. These windows also include basic statistics about the mean value of each input variable metric, with standard deviations. Consider making your own graphs and tables that you tailor to your audience, as well.
Note: You can save the output.sav file to other formats, and then integrate it into queries and databases to be able to give RFM scores for customers in different applications.
Repeat frequently
A single RFM model is a snapshot of your customers' past behavior from today's perspective. Running the model over time and using the results to show how customers move between categories provides a depth that a single result cannot give.
The easiest way to do so is to create a simple data file that stores the RFM scores for each customer by date. Using equally simple queries, you can pull the time series of RFM scores for individual customers and groups of customers over time. To make analysis more accurate, run the RFM model regularly and at equally spaced time intervals. In this way, you will have created a foundation for customer life cycle analysis.
You can use this data to see many things about how your customers' order behavior changes over time. One of the best ways is to combine your analysis with a demographic segmentation to see how different groups move through the RFM scores over time. One insight you may gain is how to identify patterns that indicate when a customer is likely to stop ordering (some people call this churn). Targeting those customers with incentives or extra attention may change their upcoming actions and retain them longer.
Conclusion
Using the RFM modeling capabilities within SPSS Statistics is a quick way to get others on board for more analysis. You can use RFM modeling to gain deeper insight into your customers' behavior, whether it is in retail, e-commerce, distribution, or other commercial industries. Even charities can apply this model to improve interactivity with donors.
RFM analysis is, relatively speaking, an easy modeling process to understand. Business users can see the value quickly. Use it to leverage a deeper use of analytics in your organization. It is a great starting point for finding more and interesting ways to bring data mining and predictive analytics into your company.

In the last blog post, I investigated why my Noda Time tests on Travis were running much slower than those on AppVeyor. I resolved a lot of the problem just by making sure I was running release builds on Travis.
That left a single test which takes up about half of the test time though:
TzdbDateTimeZoneSourceTest.GuessZoneIdByTransitionsUncached. It seems to run more slowly on .NET Core on Linux than on Windows. The aim of this post is to work out why – at least to the extent of understanding it better than before.
Step 0: Initial assumptions/knowledge and aim
For the moment, I’ll assume that my records of previous investigations are correct. So the situation is:
- I have near-identical hardware to run tests on: gabriel is running Linux; bagpuss is running Windows.
- Under a release build, the test takes 19s on gabriel and 4.3s on bagpuss
- The test does more work on gabriel: it checks 434 zones instead of 135 on bagpuss
- That still shows a per-test slow-down of 40%
- I’ve looked at this code before to try to optimize it. In production, this method is only going to be called for one time zone (the system default) so it’s not really a problem – but improving the test speed would be nice. (We can categorize it as a “slow” test if necessary, but I’d rather not.)
Aims of this diagnosis:
- Find out whether the speed difference is in the test code or the production code that it’s testing. (This test has a lot of assertions.)
- Find out whether the speed difference is in Noda Time code (e.g.
Instant) or in BCL code (e.g.
TimeZoneInfo). If it’s in Noda Time code, that could lead to another investigation later, with potential optimizations.
- Make another attempt at speeding up the test across the board
Step 1: validate assumptions
Let’s make sure we’re still in the same state as we were before. (That seems pretty likely.)
On both machines, pull the current code and run
dotnet run -c Release -f netcoreapp1.0 -- --where=test=~Guess
from the
src/NodaTime.Test directory.
Odd: it now takes ~6 seconds on bagpuss. At that point, there’s no time discrepancy. But I’m sure there was when I wrote up the previous post. I didn’t make up the 4.3s result… but it’s entirely possible it was on the wrong machine. Run the tests several times – yes, it’s always around 6 seconds. Odd.
At this point, I nearly gave up. After a little while doing other things, I decided to pursue the rest of the diagnosis anyway… at which point the execution time was back to about 4 seconds. That’s very, very strange. I still don’t know what was going on there.
Brutal honesty time: although I ran the tests at this point, I didn’t spot the discrepancy until I was at the end of step 2. I then looked back in the command shell buffer and saw the 6 second run, which was consistent with the runs at the end of step 2.
Step 2: shorten experiment iteration time
The only test we’re interested in is this one. We’re going to be changing the code occasionally, so let’s ditch everything else.
- Start a new branch in git
- Move
TzdbDateTimeZoneSourceTest.csinto
NodaTime.Testso it’s easier to find. (It was in a subdirectory.)
- Remove all other tests from
TzdbDateTimeZoneSourceTest.cs
- Delete all the subdirectories in
NodaTime.Test
- Remove everything in
NodaTime.Testapart from
Program.csand
TzdbDateTimeZoneSourceTest.cs
- Change the target framework to just
netcoreapp1.0so we don’t need to specify it. (This also requires changing the csproj file to use
instead of.)
- Add a
Releaseproperty to attempt to make it a release build by default
- Test: run
dotnet run– oops, even though it’s running from a Release folder, it’s taking 13 seconds instead of 3 on Windows.
- Revert previous change, and try
dotnet run -c Release– that’s more like it
Great. We can push the commit to github and fetch it on all the relevant machines. (I’m developing on a third machine, just using gabriel and bagpuss to run tests.)
Step 3: Narrow down the time-consuming code
As I mentioned before, the test has a lot of assertions, and they involve a lot of time zone work. Let’s see how much time they’re contributing – by removing them entirely.
- Comment out everything after the call to
GuessZoneIdByTransitionsUncached
- Run locally just to check it does still run
- Commit and push
- Fetch on gabriel/bagpuss and rerun
Result: the checking part of the test is almost free.
Step 4: Remove NUnit
At this point I’m fairly confident that NUnit is irrelevant. I still want to use the NodaTime.Test project, as NodaTime is already configured to expose internal members to it – and
GuessZoneIdByTransitionsUncached is internal. However, it’s very easy to remove NUnit – just remove the dependencies, and replace all the code in
Program with a simple test:
using NodaTime.TimeZones; using System; using System.Diagnostics; using System.Linq; namespace NodaTime.Test { class Program { public static void Main(string[] args) { var zones = TimeZoneInfo.GetSystemTimeZones().ToList(); // Fetch the source outside the measurement time var source = TzdbDateTimeZoneSource.Default; // JIT compile before we start source.GuessZoneIdByTransitionsUncached(TimeZoneInfo.Local); var stopwatch = Stopwatch.StartNew(); foreach (var zone in zones) { source.GuessZoneIdByTransitionsUncached(zone); } stopwatch.Stop(); Console.WriteLine($"Zones tested: {zones.Count}"); Console.WriteLine($"Elapsed time: {stopwatch.Elapsed}"); } } }
There are a couple of differences here compared with the NUnit test:
- I’m deliberately fetching
TzdbDateTimeZoneSource.Default(which needs to read some resources) outside the measurement
- I’m deliberately calling
GuessZoneIdByTransitionsUncachedonce outside the measurement to remove JIT compilation time
This still isn’t a good benchmark by any means, but it’s probably sufficient for now.
Commit/push/fetch/run as before.
Result: similar to before, but a little faster. Playing around with the code a little further, it seems that the bullet points above make a difference of about 0.1s each (on bagpuss, at least) – there’s quite a lot of code that wouldn’t have been JIT-compiled before the first call, and loading time zone data is somewhat expensive. NUnit also adds a little bit of overhead, which is understandable.
We now have more accurate data for just
GuessZoneIdByTransitionsUncached:
- bagpuss: 3.6s
- gabriel: 19.0s (just under 19 in most cases, instead of just over when running NUnit)
Now we need to get into Noda Time code…
Step 5: Gut the production code
First, the source code helpfully points to with some comments from my last investigation.
We don’t care about correctness at this point, just speed. We can return null at any point. At this point you probably need to know a bit about what the method does. The aim is to guess a matching TZDB (aka IANA, tz, zoneinfo or Olson) time zone from a BCL
TimeZoneInfo, when we can’t use the names to match. It combines all the time zone transitions (e.g. going into or out of DST) of every TZDB zone for the next 5 years, and then computes a score for each zone by checking how many of the UTC offsets at those transition points match the offsets returned by the BCL zone.
Let’s divide the code into 5 sections:
- Working out the start and end of this UTC year
- Getting all the time zones
- Getting all the transitions we’re going to test
- Getting all the offsets from the BCL zone
- Computing the scores
It’s going to be simplest to measure just 1, then 1+2, then 1+2+3 etc. We can just add
return null; after the step we’re interested in. We hope the results will tell us:
- Which part of the code is slowest (so we can try to optimize it)
- Which part of the code is slower on Linux than Windows
For simplicity, let’s make gabriel use the same number of time zones as bagpuss, just by adding
.Take(135) in
Program.cs above first. That way we’re comparing the same amount of work on each machine – although admittedly we don’t know that each time zone takes the same amount of time. Without any change to the production code, gabriel now takes 6s – which is about what we’d expect if the time per zone is uniform, as 19 * 135/434 = 5.91[…].
Results on gabriel:
- Step 1: 0s (it’s free, effectively)
- Step 1+2: 1.82s
- Step 1+2+3: 3.15s
- Step 1+2+3+4: 3.21s
- Step 1+2+3+4+5: 6s
Results on bagpuss:
- Step 1: 0s
- Step 1+2: 1.21s
- Step 1+2+3: 2.10s
- Step 1+2+3+4: 2.13s
- Step 1+2+3+4+5: 3.63s
Or in other words, stepwise:
Step 1: 0s on both
Step 2: 1.82s on gabriel; 1.21s on bagpuss
Step 3: 1.33s on gabriel; 0.89s on bagpuss
Step 4: 0.06s on gabriel; 0.03s on bagpuss
Step 5: 2.79s on gabriel; 1.50s on bagpuss
No particular smoking gun, unfortunately – no obvious part that would be easily optimized. The last part looks like it shows the worst platform difference though… let’s see if we can dig into that.
Step 6: Pivot to DateTimeZone.GetUtcOffset
Let’s change our test pretty radically:
- Get a list of all the built in TZDB time zones
- Create a list of 50,000 instants, starting at 2000-01-01T00:00:00Z and spaced 1 hour apart. 100,000 is some enough instants to make the test last for roughly 10 seconds. (Fast enough to iterate, slow enough to give significant results.)
- For every zone, find the UTC offset for every instant.
To simplify reasoning about what we’re testing, we want to remove time zone caching, too. Time zone computations are inherently fiddly, so Noda Time has a cache for each zone. In
GuessZoneIdByTransitionsUncached we were coming up with a new
DateTimeZone in each call, so while there’d be some caching involved, it wouldn’t be as much as a simple version of this new test. For the moment, let’s just remove the time zone caching layer entirely:
var zones = DateTimeZoneProviders.Tzdb.GetAllZones() .Select(zone => zone is CachedDateTimeZone cached ? cached.TimeZone : zone) .ToList(); var start = Instant.FromUtc(2000, 1, 1, 0, 0); var gap = Duration.FromHours(1); var instants = Enumerable .Range(0, 100000) .Select(index => start + gap * index) .ToList(); var stopwatch = Stopwatch.StartNew(); foreach (var zone in zones) { foreach (var instant in instants) { zone.GetUtcOffset(instant); } } stopwatch.Stop(); Console.WriteLine($"Elapsed time: {stopwatch.Elapsed}");
There’s still one other caching layer that’s relevant, and that’s in terms of conversions between calendrical values and instants… Noda Time is optimized for the years 1900-2100 in the Gregorian calendar. If our test went outside that range, we’d get very different results, hitting different pieces of code very hard. Our original test was looking at 5 years around now, so let’s stick to the optimized range for now.
Results:
- gabriel: 19.5s
- bagpuss: 12.5
Good – we’re still seeing the Linux run being about 50% slower than the Windows run.
Step 7: Break out a profiler!
It’s been a while since I’ve done any profiling in .NET. I had a quick search to see what was available in terms of free tools that handle .NET Core, and came across CodeTrack. I don’t think it runs under Linux, but that’s okay – we’re mostly using it to track down the hotspots first, so we can fine tune our tests.
I’m not specifically advocating CodeTrack – profiling is an art and science about which I know relatively little – but it was easy to get going. 85% of the time was spent in
StandardDaylightAlternatingMap.GetZoneInterval, so that looks like a good place to look next.
Step 8: Write actual benchmarks
I have a benchmark suite for Noda Time already, and at this point we’ve got to a stage where it’s probably worth using proper benchmarking tools. BenchmarkDotNet is my framework of choice – so let’s add a couple of benchmarks.
Looking at the code and the profiler, it looks worth testing both
StandardDaylightAlternatingMap and
ZoneRecurrence. Having added those benchmarks, I might as well put this down until the next day, as the complete benchmark suite runs automatically every night.
Step 9: Compare the benchmarks
The benchmark results are automatically uploaded to the Noda Time web site although the UI for browsing them is somewhat unstable (in terms of URLs etc) – hence the lack of link here.
Looking at the benchmark results, it turns out I’d already got benchmarks for
StandardDaylightAlternatingMap, annoyingly enough – so I needed to tidy those up.
However, they do clearly show the difference between .NET Core on Linux and on Windows, so we’ve narrowed the problem down further. That doesn’t show that only that code has different performance, but it’s hopefully a good enough start that we’ll be able to continue and get a short but complete example to provide to the .NET Core CLR team.
Diving deeper into the implementation,
ZoneYearOffset makes sense to test too… the further we go down, the less code will be involved.
Step 10: take a step back for now
We’ve made progress, but we’re not all the way there. That’s okay – the progress is recorded (both here and in benchmarks) and in looking at the benchmark that’s taking so long to run, we’ve confirmed that we’re not doing anything stupid. It happens to end up doing a lot more work than any application code normally would – work that would normally only happen once (so can be inefficient without being a problem) is exercised hundreds of times. Such is life – I could decide not to run it in CI if I want, running it occasionally manually and always just before a release.
I’ll come back to this issue at some point in the future, but at this point, other projects have become more important.
Points to note and lessons learned
- Validate assumptions carefully. I still don’t quite know why there was the blip in execution time, but it was very surprising.
- Unit tests are no substitute for a good benchmarking framework.
- Profilers exist, and are useful. No specific recommendations here, but make sure you’re aware of the tools you could benefit from.
- Sometimes, you need to put down a problem for a while. Try not to lose the information you’ve already discovered – capture it in an issue, comments, a blog post like this one, a private document… anything to preserve information. My head leaks data very, very quickly.
Addendum
I’m still investigating where .NET Core runs faster on Linux than on Windows, but I’ve fixed this test – PR 953 is a pretty minor refactoring, but it allows the tests to pass in the same list of time zones into each test case. That has two benefits:
- We don’t need to load the zones from raw data on each test
- The “get UTC offset at instant X” result is cached in the time zone, so after the first test there’s very little work to do
This very small, internal-only change has halved the total time of the Noda Time tests on Travis. Yay.
7 thoughts on “Diagnosing a single slow test”
I’m wondering why step 2-6 was before step 7, why didn’t you simply fire up a profilere to begin with, after ensuring you’re still experiencing the differences? Every “fix performance issue” article I’ve read, and all my experience, tells me that you should measure, measure, measure. Why did you decide otherwise? It seems you even changed the code (step 2, 4 and 5) before you started using a profiler?
The profiler only runs on Windows, so that doesn’t help when you’re trying to find the difference between .NET Core on Linux and .NET Core on Windows, which was the main aim. Trying to make the tests quicker would have been nice, but my main point of interest was (and still is) why things were running slower on Linux than on Windows.
The code changes in steps 2 and 4 were only changes to the test code, not the production code – trying to reduce how much was running. That was useful when I did end up running the profiler. The code changes in step 5 were just ways of measuring subsets of the code reasonably simply.
And that’s what I was doing – with a fairly blunt tool, but they’re measurements nonetheless. They were more realistic measurements than the profiler gave in one mode, too – the profiler in tracing mode made the whole thing 10x slower. Great for seeing how many calls are made to what, but not so good for knowing the overall performance. Less of a difference in sampling mode, but my point is that there are pros and cons for different measurement techniques. I find profilers good for giving you strong suggestions about where to look for hotspots, but after that I really only trust the measurements from benchmarking tools.
Using a profiler just for Windows followed by adding benchmarks for the hotspots of the test would probably have got me to the same state quicker, but not very much so – and I wouldn’t have had as much confidence that those benchmarks would show a difference between .NET Core on Linux and Windows as I did by the time I got there with this path.
I’m certainly not going to argue against using a profiler earlier, but there are multiple feasible paths when diagnosing problems, and I don’t feel particularly foolish for not reaching for a profiler earlier in this case.
We’re still in the infancy of .NET Core/Standard as far as I can see (opinion) so one part that I take away from your post and your reply is that we need more/better cross-platform tools.
To be honest, I’m not entirely sure how to conduct profiling against different platforms at the same time in the interest of finding out why code running on one platform take more time than on a different platform but your initial sentence, “runs only on Windows”, will have to be fixed! We need profilers that can run on multiple platforms and give comparative results.
I’m currently combating a similar case myself wherein a simple LINQ-like query runs “fine” on Windows but is “taking forever” on Linux, yet on OS X it seems I have to consider the current moon phase to know whether it will run slow or fast.
I’m looking forward to reading more about what you finally find is the source of your differences, if you ever get to the bottom of it, but this article, and many others I’ve read over the past couple of months, tells me that we still have a ways to go in order to get true cross-platform C# and .NET code.
Yes, more cross-platform tools such as profilers and coverage tools will definitely be welcome. It’s possible that a cross-platform profiler already exists, but I haven’t seen it yet.
Will definitely post again with any further results when I get back to this.
I know this is an old post but I would love to know how to disable the caching. Can’t query using EF because it returns a CachedDateTimeZone object and not a DateTimeZone object and we only have a CLR map for the DateTimeZone object as CachedDateTimeZone is an internal class.
Please file a GitHub issue – that’s a much more appropriate place to discuss this than on a blog post. | https://codeblog.jonskeet.uk/2017/08/19/diagnosing-a-single-slow-test/?replytocom=28481 | CC-MAIN-2021-49 | refinedweb | 3,339 | 72.26 |

Forex Carry Trade
Introduction
Carry trade is very common in the foreign exchange market. The strategy systematically sells low-interest rate currencies and buys high-interest rates currencies. The “carry” of an asset is the opportunity cost of holding that asset. Carry trade strategy holds one currency relative to another in order to capture the spread between the rates. We can think of this strategy as borrowing money from one country with a lower interest rate and investing it in another country with a higher interest rate.
Method
Importing Custom Data
The central bank interest rate data is from Quandl. For the trading universe, we choose 9 currencies
whose central bank interest rate data is available in Quandl. The method to import the custom data is
AddData(type, symbol, resoltuion, timeZone, fillDataForward). As the custom file has it's unique
colume name, we need to create a class to specify the colume name of interest rate.
from QuantConnect.Python import PythonQuandl class QuandlRate(PythonQuandl): def __init__(self): self.ValueColumnName = 'Value'
We save the interest rate symbol and the correspondent forex asset symbol into a dictionary.
Monthly Rebalance Trading
Next step we sort the forex symbol by the value of interest rate. The algorithm goes long the currency with the highest interest rates and goes short the currency with the lowest interest rate. The strategy is rebalanced monthly. The schedule event method is used to fire the rebalance event at the first trading day each month.

%load_ext autoreload %autoreload 2
Welcome to
analytics_toolbox aka
atb
Enabling Data Scientists to amplify their inner Data Engineer.
A toolbox for managing data coming from multiple Postgres, Redshift & S3 data sources while performing Analytics and Research. We also have some functionality that help users build Slack Bots.
Install Us
pip install analytics_toolbox
Documentation
Our docs are currently useless as of 2020-02-12.
Vote For Change!
I'll see your comments on GitHub.
Support Us
Coming someday, maybe?
Do You Know About config Files?
analytics_toolbox is only made possible by its reliance on standardized credential storage. You wanna use us, you sadly must play by some of our rules.
We read and build classes via the variable names in the config files you pass to our code. Trust us. Its worth it. You'll end up saving 100s of lines of code by simply passing 1 to 2 arguments when instantiating our primary classes.
Config Files are a great way to store information. We chose this over other options like json or OS level environment variables for no clear reason. If you really want support for other credential formats, vote with your words here.
Config File Format Guidelines
Postgres + Redshift Connections
If your config file section has a
hostname,
port,
database and
user sections, then we'll parse it as a Redshift/Postgres database. You store your password in
.pgpass (see below if this is new).
Here is an example of Postgres/Redshift entries.
""
[dev_db] hostname = dev.yourhost.com port = 5432 database = dbname user = htpeter [prod_db] hostname = prod.yourhost.com port = 5432 database = dbname user = htpeter
What is .pgpass?
When python's
psycopg2 or even
psql attempt to connect to a server, they will look in a file called
~/.pgpass. If they find matching server information, based on the target they are connecting to, they use that password.
~/.pgpass's format is simple. Include a line in the file that follows the following format.
hostname:port:database:username:password
Ensure you limit the permissions on this file using
chmod 600 ~/.pgpass, otherwise no tools will use it due to its insecurity.
You don't pass database passwords to
analytics_toolbox. Instead we leverage pgpass. Simply paste a record for each database in a text file
~/.pgpass with the following information.
Slack Connections
Our Slack APIs use Slack Bot OAuth Tokens.
Create an OAuth token and save it to a variable called
bot_user_oauth_token. You can store the token in a config section named whatever you want.
[company_slack] oauth_token = 943f-1ji23ojf-43gjio3j4gio2-2fjoi23jfi23hio [personal_slack] oauth_token = 943f-dfase3-basf234234-fw4230kf230kf023k023
Usage Examples
Querying Multiple Databases & Moving Data
Our import is both useful and classy enough to be jammed up at the top with your
pds,
nps and
plts.
import analytics_toolbox as atb
And then you simply create a database pool object with your Config File. It loads up all the goodies.
db = atb.DBConnector('../atb_config_template.ini') db
{ 'dev_db': <analytics_toolbox.connector.DatabaseConnection object at 0x11698bc88>, 'prod_db': <analytics_toolbox.connector.DatabaseConnection object at 0x1169d8198>}
Now we can query any of our databasese easily!
# reference with the config file keyname db['dev_db'].qry('select * from pg_class limit 5') db['prod_db'].qry('select * from pg_class limit 5') # or if config file section is pythonic, use its name just like pandas! db.dev_db.qry('select * from pg_class limit 5') db.prod_db.qry('select * from pg_class limit 5')

by William W Wold
I wrote a programming language. Here’s how you can, too.
Over the past 6 months, I’ve been working on a programming language called Pinecone. I wouldn’t call it mature yet, but it already has enough features working to be usable, such as:
- variables
- functions
- user defined structures
If you’re interested in it, check out Pinecone’s landing page or its GitHub repo.
I’m not an expert. When I started this project, I had no clue what I was doing, and I still don’t. I’ve taken zero classes on language creation, read only a bit about it online, and did not follow much of the advice I have been given.
And yet, I still made a completely new language. And it works. So I must be doing something right.
In this post, I’ll dive under the hood and show you the pipeline Pinecone (and other programming languages) use to turn source code into magic.
I‘ll also touch on some of the tradeoffs I’ve had make, and why I made the decisions I did.
This is by no means a complete tutorial on writing a programming language, but it’s a good starting point if you’re curious about language development.
Getting Started
“I have absolutely no idea where I would even start” is something I hear a lot when I tell other developers I’m writing a language. In case that’s your reaction, I’ll now go through some initial decisions that are made and steps that are taken when starting any new language.
Compiled vs Interpreted
There are two major types of languages: compiled and interpreted:
- A compiler figures out everything a program will do, turns it into “machine code” (a format the computer can run really fast), then saves that to be executed later.
- An interpreter steps through the source code line by line, figuring out what it’s doing as it goes.
Technically any language could be compiled or interpreted, but one or the other usually makes more sense for a specific language. Generally, interpreting tends to be more flexible, while compiling tends to have higher performance. But this is only scratching the surface of a very complex topic.
I highly value performance, and I saw a lack of programming languages that are both high performance and simplicity-oriented, so I went with compiled for Pinecone.
This was an important decision to make early on, because a lot of language design decisions are affected by it (for example, static typing is a big benefit to compiled languages, but not so much for interpreted ones).
Despite the fact that Pinecone was designed with compiling in mind, it does have a fully functional interpreter which was the only way to run it for a while. There are a number of reasons for this, which I will explain later on.
Choosing a Language
I know it’s a bit meta, but a programming language is itself a program, and thus you need to write it in a language. I chose C++ because of its performance and large feature set. Also, I actually do enjoy working in C++.
If you are writing an interpreted language, it makes a lot of sense to write it in a compiled one (like C, C++ or Swift) because the performance lost in the language of your interpreter and the interpreter that is interpreting your interpreter will compound.
If you plan to compile, a slower language (like Python or JavaScript) is more acceptable. Compile time may be bad, but in my opinion that isn’t nearly as big a deal as bad run time.
High Level Design
A programming language is generally structured as a pipeline. That is, it has several stages. Each stage has data formatted in a specific, well defined way. It also has functions to transform data from each stage to the next.
The first stage is a string containing the entire input source file. The final stage is something that can be run. This will all become clear as we go through the Pinecone pipeline step by step.
Lexing
A token is a small unit of a language. A token might be a variable or function name (AKA an identifier), an operator or a number.
Task of the Lexer
The lexer is supposed to take in a string containing an entire files worth of source code and spit out a list containing every token.
Future stages of the pipeline will not refer back to the original source code, so the lexer must produce all the information needed by them. The reason for this relatively strict pipeline format is that the lexer may do tasks such as removing comments or detecting if something is a number or identifier. You want to keep that logic locked inside the lexer, both so you don’t have to think about these rules when writing the rest of the language, and so you can change this type of syntax all in one place.
Flex
The day I started the language, the first thing I wrote was a simple lexer. Soon after, I started learning about tools that would supposedly make lexing simpler, and less buggy.
The predominant such tool is Flex, a program that generates lexers. You give it a file which has a special syntax to describe the language’s grammar. From that it generates a C program which lexes a string and produces the desired output.
My Decision
I opted to keep the lexer I wrote for the time being. In the end, I didn’t see significant benefits of using Flex, at least not enough to justify adding a dependency and complicating the build process.
My lexer is only a few hundred lines long, and rarely gives me any trouble. Rolling my own lexer also gives me more flexibility, such as the ability to add an operator to the language without editing multiple files.
Parsing
The second stage of the pipeline is the parser. The parser turns a list of tokens into a tree of nodes. A tree used for storing this type of data is known as an Abstract Syntax Tree, or AST. At least in Pinecone, the AST does not have any info about types or which identifiers are which. It is simply structured tokens.
Parser Duties
The parser adds structure to to the ordered list of tokens the lexer produces. To stop ambiguities, the parser must take into account parenthesis and the order of operations. Simply parsing operators isn’t terribly difficult, but as more language constructs get added, parsing can become very complex.
Bison
Again, there was a decision to make involving a third party library. The predominant parsing library is Bison. Bison works a lot like Flex. You write a file in a custom format that stores the grammar information, then Bison uses that to generate a C program that will do your parsing. I did not choose to use Bison.
Why Custom Is Better
With the lexer, the decision to use my own code was fairly obvious. A lexer is such a trivial program that not writing my own felt almost as silly as not writing my own ‘left-pad’.
With the parser, it’s a different matter. My Pinecone parser is currently 750 lines long, and I’ve written three of them because the first two were trash.
I originally made my decision for a number of reasons, and while it hasn’t gone completely smoothly, most of them hold true. The major ones are as follows:
- Minimize context switching in workflow: context switching between C++ and Pinecone is bad enough without throwing in Bison’s grammar grammar
- Keep build simple: every time the grammar changes Bison has to be run before the build. This can be automated but it becomes a pain when switching between build systems.
- I like building cool shit: I didn’t make Pinecone because I thought it would be easy, so why would I delegate a central role when I could do it myself? A custom parser may not be trivial, but it is completely doable.
In the beginning I wasn’t completely sure if I was going down a viable path, but I was given confidence by what Walter Bright (a developer on an early version of C++, and the creator of the D language) had to say on the topic:
.”
Action Tree
We have now left the the area of common, universal terms, or at least I don’t know what the terms are anymore. From my understanding, what I call the ‘action tree’ is most akin to LLVM’s IR (intermediate representation).
There is a subtle but very significant difference between the action tree and the abstract syntax tree. It took me quite a while to figure out that there even should be a difference between them (which contributed to the need for rewrites of the parser).
Action Tree vs AST
Put simply, the action tree is the AST with context. That context is info such as what type a function returns, or that two places in which a variable is used are in fact using the same variable. Because it needs to figure out and remember all this context, the code that generates the action tree needs lots of namespace lookup tables and other thingamabobs.
Running the Action Tree
Once we have the action tree, running the code is easy. Each action node has a function ‘execute’ which takes some input, does whatever the action should (including possibly calling sub action) and returns the action’s output. This is the interpreter in action.
Compiling Options
“But wait!” I hear you say, “isn’t Pinecone supposed to by compiled?” Yes, it is. But compiling is harder than interpreting. There are a few possible approaches.
Build My Own Compiler
This sounded like a good idea to me at first. I do love making things myself, and I’ve been itching for an excuse to get good at assembly.
Unfortunately, writing a portable compiler is not as easy as writing some machine code for each language element. Because of the number of architectures and operating systems, it is impractical for any individual to write a cross platform compiler backend.
Even the teams behind Swift, Rust and Clang don’t want to bother with it all on their own, so instead they all use…
LLVM
LLVM is a collection of compiler tools. It’s basically a library that will turn your language into a compiled executable binary. It seemed like the perfect choice, so I jumped right in. Sadly I didn’t check how deep the water was and I immediately drowned.
LLVM, while not assembly language hard, is gigantic complex library hard. It’s not impossible to use, and they have good tutorials, but I realized I would have to get some practice before I was ready to fully implement a Pinecone compiler with it.
Transpiling
I wanted some sort of compiled Pinecone and I wanted it fast, so I turned to one method I knew I could make work: transpiling.
I wrote a Pinecone to C++ transpiler, and added the ability to automatically compile the output source with GCC. This currently works for almost all Pinecone programs (though there are a few edge cases that break it). It is not a particularly portable or scalable solution, but it works for the time being.
Future
Assuming I continue to develop Pinecone, It will get LLVM compiling support sooner or later. I suspect no mater how much I work on it, the transpiler will never be completely stable and the benefits of LLVM are numerous. It’s just a matter of when I have time to make some sample projects in LLVM and get the hang of it.
Until then, the interpreter is great for trivial programs and C++ transpiling works for most things that need more performance.
Conclusion
I hope I’ve made programming languages a little less mysterious for you. If you do want to make one yourself, I highly recommend it. There are a ton of implementation details to figure out but the outline here should be enough to get you going.
Here is my high level advice for getting started (remember, I don’t really know what I’m doing, so take it with a grain of salt):
- If in doubt, go interpreted. Interpreted languages are generally easier design, build and learn. I’m not discouraging you from writing a compiled one if you know that’s what you want to do, but if you’re on the fence, I would go interpreted.
- When it comes to lexers and parsers, do whatever you want. There are valid arguments for and against writing your own. In the end, if you think out your design and implement everything in a sensible way, it doesn’t really matter.
- Learn from the pipeline I ended up with. A lot of trial and error went into designing the pipeline I have now. I have attempted eliminating ASTs, ASTs that turn into actions trees in place, and other terrible ideas. This pipeline works, so don’t change it unless you have a really good idea.
- If you don’t have the time or motivation to implement a complex general purpose language, try implementing an esoteric language such as Brainfuck. These interpreters can be as short as a few hundred lines.
I have very few regrets when it comes to Pinecone development. I made a number of bad choices along the way, but I have rewritten most of the code affected by such mistakes.
Right now, Pinecone is in a good enough state that it functions well and can be easily improved. Writing Pinecone has been a hugely educational and enjoyable experience for me, and it’s just getting started. | https://www.freecodecamp.org/news/the-programming-language-pipeline-91d3f449c919/ | CC-MAIN-2021-21 | refinedweb | 2,309 | 70.33 |
there's a problem on Codeforces.com (it's for beginers) which i know it's solution
but my code can't be accepted because there's a condition that i don't know how to write in C++
here's the problem:
Michael has a problem in his first year of primary school. He can not write numbers.
So his teacher suggested that he write the numbers several times, under one condition: if the teacher says "7", then Ahmed will write this number 7 times.
Write a program that will help Ahmed in doing his task.
Input
The input consists of a single line containing one integer X (1 ≤ X ≤ 10).
Output
Print the number X, repeated X times. The numbers should be separated by one space.
[that's the part that i don't know how to write (1 ≤ X ≤ 10).]
and that's my code

I’m a bit confused about this code:
(From: Using mixins with class-based views | Django documentation | Django)
from django.views.generic import ListView from django.views.generic.detail import SingleObjectMixin from books.models import Publisher class PublisherDetailView()
The text after it explains:.
So ListView knows nothing about a Publisher class and the template name must be altered because “it’s a list of books”. So I have a few questions:
- How is it a list of books? All methods seem to work based on a queryset of Publisher, even the third one, get_queryset(), which returns the list of books but through the queryset from get();
- Where does this class get to infer the model? At the very last method, the one that returns a queryset, however, again, based on an object ‘grabbed’ from a queryset of another object(Publisher)?
- Does the order in which parent classes are provided influence who gets to perform which method? Both SingleObjectMixin and ListView have the methods defined above, so who gets to execute what? | https://forum.djangoproject.com/t/singleobjectmixin-with-listview-querysets/12036 | CC-MAIN-2022-21 | refinedweb | 171 | 63.59 |

Firebird is an open source relational database management system that runs on Linux, Windows, and a variety of Unix platforms. Among other things, this small light-weight RDBMS, apart from being absolutely free fully supports stored procedures and is ACID compliant (and of course supports standard SQL) with Referential integrity.
You are probably reading this because you are a Windows developer with a lot of SQL in your head, but not enough money in your pockets to purchase a full SQL server license and the physical limitations on the SQL server Express are hopeless. Well, let me give you a glimmer of hope.
What you need:
When I discovered and started to use the Firebird ADO.NET Client towards the end of last year, I stopped using SQL Server Express in all my Windows applications. I just had a problem with its size…it’s about 90-500MB depending on what you choose to install, and yet limited to only 4GB of physical storage (per database). I must say that using MySQL with its connector on .NET is somewhat OK, but MySQL is still a BIG RDBMS compared to Firebird. Then came this Firebird, the Windows installer just being about 6MB and with 64TB storage capacity (this is a hypothetical estimate…but, it means the actual value is around there somewhere!). It goes quite well with Delphi I would say, but not very many people love using Object Pascal (Sorry Codegear, but Delphi code just looks so funny), let alone get the opportunity. To be frank, kudos to the guys at Microsoft because they still have the easiest way of interfacing a Windows application with their SQL Server; that is probably why many developers use SQL Server when working on the .NET platform.
This is to introduce to you the Firebird ADO.NET client, currently in its 2.5th release! I love the way they keep every class with its name more or less the same. An example of the common classes in the System.Data.Sqlclient namespace and their equivalent in the FirebirdSql.Data.FirebirdClient namespace is shown below:
System.Data.Sqlclient
FirebirdSql.Data.FirebirdClient
SqlConnection()
FbConnection()
SqlCommand()
FbCommand()
SqlDataReader()
FbDataReader()
After installing Firebird 2.5, the default username will be sysdba and the password will be masterkey. There is a very good quick-start guide in the docs directory of the Firebird installation folder [mine is C:\Program Files\Firebird\Firebird_2_5\doc\ Firebird-2.1-QuickStart.pdf]. You can add users, modify passwords, and all. You do this using the special gsec tool that comes along with the installation. But, you don’t want to start creating tables at the command line, do you? That is why I recommend a third party GUI tool. I always like using the mouse and seeing what you are actually doing. The GUI tool of my choice is called FlameRobin. It is a simple, very small, application written in C++, that enables you to create databases, register them, add tables, manage users, and so much more. Now, you are probably used to not having to write SQL to create your tables if you were using Management Studio for SQL Server, or Visual Studio 2008, which enables you to open the *.mdf file in your project and add the tables with a few mouse clicks. With FlameRobin, you are going to have to create the tables with SQL. That should not be difficult. You can also migrate your tables in SQL server as I will tell you at the end.
For the table we are going to use, I have included the query in the zip archive. If you are going to use my project exactly as it is, you will have to change the sysdba password to “12345”, without the quotations, of course.
Next, you will install the Firebird ADO.NET Client, it is just 320KB… not surprising for a package that effectively consists of only two DLLs.
If you are making your own project as you follow the tutorial, add FirebirdSql.Data.FirebirdClient.dll in C:\Program Files\FirebirdClient 2.0 (or wherever it is that you installed it) as a reference to your project, and then add:
using FirebirdSql.Data.FirebirdClient
the above statement at the beginning of your code.
I am assuming that you have worked with SQL Server before, and VC# or VC++ .NET or VB.NET, and know the procedure to follow to add data from your form to a database. In our project, we have created (you should create) a table called Details with Name, Age, and Sex columns (just use the query I included in the source code) in a database called UsingFirebird.fdb in C:\. We will just be adding details to these columns. The procedure with Firebird, after following the installation steps above, is almost exactly the same. You just have to type “Fb…” to look for the class you want, and the IntelliSense feature will shower you with all the available classes. Any class you are looking for is most probably there; I have not exhausted all of them, but I have translated some of my largest projects already.
Details
Name
Age
Sex
However, let us look at the most important feature now.
You must have a correct connection string before you can do anything else with a database. It took me quite a long while to get the exact way in which the connection string must be written. And, there are many confusing leads on the internet. My main reason to writing this article is to provide a one stop centre for many solutions to simple issues. Look at the code in the Submit button event handler:
void SubmitButtonClick(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
try
{
string ConnectionString = "User ID=sysdba;Password=12345;" +
"Database=localhost:C:\\USINGFIREBIRD.FDB; " +
"DataSource=localhost;Charset=NONE;";
Please note the space in “User ID” and the “localhost:C:\\” instruction. As with SQL Server, there are many other advanced options that you can include in this string… just put a semicolon after every setting that you will have added. Contrary to SQL Server, a Firebird database must always have server authentication. Other ways exist, but this is the technique I would recommend to writing the connection string:
User ID
localhost:C:\\
string
FbConnection addDetailsConnection = new FbConnection(ConnectionString);
addDetailsConnection.Open();
FbTransaction addDetailsTransaction =
addDetailsConnection.BeginTransaction();
string SQLCommandText = " INSERT into Details Values"+
"('"+ NameBox.Text+
"',"+Int32.Parse(AgeBox.Text)+
","+"'"+SexBox.Text+"')";
FbCommand addDetailsCommand = new FbCommand(SQLCommandText,
addDetailsConnection,addDetailsTransaction);
addDetailsCommand.ExecuteNonQuery();
addDetailsTransaction.Commit();
MessageBox.Show(" Details Added");
//as you can see, the procedure is exactly the same.
}
catch(Exception x)
{
MessageBox.Show(x.Message);
}
Just to prove to you further that you do not have anything new to learn, have a look at a possible implementation of the FbDataReader() class when we want to delete an item we have added. We will be populating the combo box when FormDelete loads. Please note that in FormDelete.cs, the ConnectionString variable has been declared outside the methods to widen its scope. This way, you don’t have to write it every time.
Form
ConnectionString
void FormDeleteLoad(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
FbConnection deleteConnection = new FbConnection(ConnectionString);
try
{
deleteConnection.Open();
// declare command
FbCommand readCommand =
new FbCommand("Select * From Details", deleteConnection);
FbDataReader myreader= readCommand.ExecuteReader();
while(myreader.Read())
{
// load the combobox with the names of the people inside.
// myreader[0] reads from the 1st Column
DeleteComboBox.Items.Add(myreader[0]);
}
myreader.Close(); // we are done with the reader
}
catch(Exception x)
{
MessageBox.Show(x.Message);
}
finally
{
deleteConnection.Close();
}
}
The Firebird exception messages are not fully developed. I am angered by messages like "No message for error code 335544755"! Well, there is some not so bad documentation on the Firebird error codes available here.
I have met a few problems with the FbDataReader when it is being called more than once in the same source file… it's like it does not completely close the first time you use it.

So, what next? Look at the first project you designed when you were first working with interfacing forms with SQL Server. Try to translate it. If it is a multi-document form, you could consider interfacing only a few forms first, then go on carefully. You will actually come to realise that the forms seem to add details faster and DataGridViews seem to load data faster with FirebirdSQL than with SQL Server.
DataGridView
You can follow this link to see how to migrate your SQL data to Firebird.
Please note that the Firebird ADO.NET Client 2.5, even in all its glory, is still a prelease version. So, perhaps it may not be suitable for mission critical projects.
Nonetheless, it is a very helpful project. You no longer need to spend the 14,000 dollars to buy a full-fledged RDBMS to use with Visual Studio. For all the work that you have been doing, give Uncle Bill a leave. Enjoy that small server with (almost) unlimited physical storage…it is definitely worth your try.

A large number of routines in CGI.pm actually aren't specifically defined in the module, but are generated automatically as needed. These are the
``HTML shortcuts,'' routines that generate
HTML tags for use in dynamically-generated pages.

HTML-generating routines perform a different type of translation.
This feature allows you to keep up with the rapidly changing

This will parse the input (from both

In older versions, this method was called import(). As of version 2.20, this name has been removed completely to avoid
conflict with the built-in Perl module import operator.

This completely clears a parameter. It sometimes useful for resetting
parameters that you don't want passed down between script invocations.
If you are using the function call interface, use ``Delete()'' instead to
avoid conflicts with Perl's built-in delete operator.

If you wish to use this method from the function-oriented (non-OO)
interface, the exported name for this method is save_parameters().
To use the function-oriented interface, you must specify which CGI.pm
routines or sets of routines to import into your script's namespace. There
is a small overhead associated with this importation, but it isn't much.
use CGI <list of methods>;
The listed methods will be imported into the current package; gropus by name. All function sets are preceded with a ``:'' character as in ``:html3'' (for tags defined in the
HTML 3 standard).
Here is a list of the function sets you can import: immeidately:
use CGI qw/:standard :html3 gradient/;
print gradient({-start=>'red',-end=>'blue'}); standard set of functions and disables debugging mode (pragma -no_debug):
use()
use CGI qw/:standard -no_debug/;
The current list of pragmas is as follows:
use CGI qw(-any);
$q=new CGI;
print $q->gradient({speed=>'fast',start=>'red',end=>'blue'});
Since using <cite>any</cite> causes any mistyped method name to be interpreted as an
HTML tag, use it with care or not at all.
use CGI qw(-compile :standard :html3);
or even
use CGI qw(-compile :all);
Note that using the -compile pragma in this way will always have the effect of importing the compiled functions into the current namespace. If you want to compile without importing use the
compile() method instead (see below).
compile()
use CGI qw(-no_debug :standard);
If you'd like to process the command-line parameters but not standard
input, this should work:
use CGI qw(-no_debug :standard);
restore_parameters(join('&',@ARGV));
See the section on debugging for more details.
Most of CGI.pm's functions deal with creating documents on information. These will be turned into a series of header
<META> tags that look something like this:
<META NAME="keywords" CONTENT="pharaoh secret mummy">
<META NAME="description" CONTENT="copyright 1996 King Tut"> and -onUnload parameters are used to add Netscape reference in the
-script parameter containing one or more of -language, -src, or -code:'

While trying to get a WordML -> HTML conversion that would work reasonably well with .TEXT, I came across an interesting performance bug in the Regex class of .NET.
Run the following code and see what happens. It doesn't produce any output; just step over each line in the debugger and note how long the "slow" search takes:
using System.Text.RegularExpressions;
class Class1
{
static void
{
string s = "fred" + new string(' ', 5000);
Regex slow = new Regex(".*fred", RegexOptions.None);
Regex fast = new Regex("^.*fred", RegexOptions.None);
fast.Replace(s, "");
slow.Replace(s, "");
}
}
In theory the two expressions should be the same -- "anything followed by fred" is semantically the same as "anything from the start of the string followed by fred" -- but for some reason they behave very differently. I'll see if it's a known bug tomorrow (having trouble accessing the database from home).
This is not a bug. The slow replacement will indeed be slow because it will *laziliy* attempt to make a replacement at every place within the 5004 characters… yep *lazily*.
The "fast" operation – although still lazy and much slower than it could be – will only ever attempt to match from its anchored marker.
Thanks Darren; can you elaborate a bit more on the "laziness"?
It seems that the most naive way to implement a ".*foo" pattern would be just to do an IndexOf("foo") and return everything up to (and including) that. It only takes two tests (one on the original string, one on the replaced string) to figure out there’s nothing left to do.
Under what circumstances would they produce different results (ie, when is "everything" not equivalent to "everything from the start")?
I reckon that they are not semantically equivalent; consider the string "fredfred" and how many times replacement should be done in each case.
Even better is the case where the string may be partially overlapping with itself; how should the pattern ".*abab" be matched with the string "ababab"?
Err… woops 🙂 When I wrote *lazy* I did – of course – mean *greedy*.
Jeffrey Friedl’s "Mastering Regular Expressions 2nd Ed." has some great discussions of performance implications when using greedy and non-greedy expressions. It’s well worth the read and has a specific chapter on the .NET implementation of regular expressions in PDF format that is freely downloadable.
Roland,
In both cases, there is no difference. Both patterns greedly match all the garbage at the start of the string and match the trailing "fred" / "abab".
Kelly,
Thanks for the link to the .NET chapter. I actually read the Regexp book a long time ago and have it lying infront of me now :-). No obvious reasons are shown in the book though (quick perusal of the index…).
But can anyone show me where the "fast" and the "slow" patterns give different results?
It doesn’t matter if the engine is doing "the right thing" in the slow case; *if* it can do "the right thing" faster then it should, and not doing it is a (possibly low priority) bug with performance.
Peter, these things will never give different results; they will both find a match against *only* the last instance of "fred" contained within any given text.
One of the things that Jeff Friedl mentions in his book – the Chapter about optimizing and perf I think – is that whenever possible you show expose leading/trailing characters in the pattern which allow many optimizations to kick in. It may be that, what you *percieve* as a bug is simply a bunch of optimizations "not" kicking in 🙂
Hey Darren,
It may just be a "missing feature" but we still call those "bugs" at Microsoft 🙂
Do you remember the "news" story about there being 60,000 (or whatever) "bugs" in Windows 2000? Well now you know where they all come from. Everything at Microsoft is considered a bug — perf issues, spelling errors, help text, new feature suggestions, icon changes, design ideas, re-arranging toolbar buttons, renaming menu items, you name it.
We’ll see if they accept my request for a change in Whudbey 🙂
> but we still call those "bugs" at Microsoft 🙂
🙂 Heh, thanks for the heads-up!
> We’ll see if they accept my request for a change in Whudbey 🙂
Great, hey… while they’ve got that file checked-out 🙂 can you ask them to fix my "pet-peeve" too
See the section on that page titled: "My Biggest Gripe about Named Groups".
Cheers (and Happy New Year)!

Couple points.
First off, you’re begging the question. What algorithm does "IndexOf" use, and how do you know it is fast? Searching arbitrary strings for arbitrary patterns can be quite expensive.
But more generally, there’s a conceptual issue here. The thing about regular expressions is that they are actually a programming language for tersely specifying finite state machines. For a given set of inputs and desired outputs you could design an infinite number of different finite state machines that work, but they would have different performance characteristics!
The regular expression engine does not make guesses as to how to optimize the FSM for a given set of inputs because the engine doesn’t know what the inputs are going to be ahead of time. The regexp parser just builds up an FSM implementation and runs it on your string, for better or for worse.
> "anything followed by fred" is semantically the same as "anything from the start of the string followed by fred"
Actually it’s not. In the string
abfred
"anything followed by fred" has three possible values
fred
bfred
abfred
whereas "anything from the start of the string followed by fred" has only one possible value
abfred
The unanchored .* results in quadratic backtracking.
On my "dumb blog entries to write someday" list is one on understanding regex performance. It is very easy to write a regex with pathetic perf.
Raymond, my point is that this could (should ?) be special cased because it is such a basic example and it has horrible perf for no good reason. Why does the engine keep looking for text when it already knows the text doesn’t exist anywhere in the string?
I look forward to your upcoming entry though 😉
You should definitely check out the supplied URL. Here it is again:
I’ve gone over some crazy issues that examine matching using normalized strings versus regular expressions, along with some examination of how to make your regular expressions match even faster by using [ ] (space) instead of s (whitespace), and specifying (h|H) instead of doing RegexOptions.IgnoreCase. I actually managed to get the Regular Expression comparision to run faster than the string normalization for the case granted. | https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/ptorr/2004/01/05/regex-perf-bug/ | CC-MAIN-2017-47 | refinedweb | 1,140 | 69.72 |
Summary: The error
IndentationError: unindent does not match any outer indentation level arises if you use inconsistent indentation of tabs or whitespaces for indented code blocks such as the
if block and the
for loop. For example, Python will throw an indentation error, if you use a
for loop with four whitespace characters indentation for the first line, and one tab character indentation of the second line of the loop body. To fix the error, use the same number of empty whitespaces for all indented code blocks.
IndentationError: unindent does not match any outer indentation level
You must have come across this stupid bug at some point of time while coding. Isn’t it really frustrating to get an error even if your code is logically correct!
But after you read this article, you will probably never come across this error again. Even if you do, you will be able to rectify it in a flash! So without further delay let us dive into our discussion on IndentationError in Python.
Indentation in Python
Indentation refers to the spaces at the beginning of a line of code.
In other programming languages like Java, indentation simply serves the purpose of readability, i.e., even if you do not follow the proper indentation in such languages, it won’t hamper the execution of your code since they use braces {} to represent a block of code.
In Python indentation is an integral feature that represents a block of code and determines the execution of your code. When you skip proper indentation, Python will throw an
IndentationError.
Each line of code within a block should have an equal number of whitespaces before them. This means if a
for loop block contains two lines of code then each line should have four whitespaces (ideally) before them. If one line of code has three whitespaces while the other has four, you will again get an
IndentationError.
Example 1
Given a list containing marks. Based on given conditions the following program aims to divide each number within the list into a certain grade.:
File "D:/PycharmProjects/PythonErrors/rough.py", line 11 else: ^ IndentationError: unindent does not match any outer indentation level
In the above example, the error occurred in the
else statement because it does not follow the correct indentation.
📖 How to Fix “IndentationError: unindent does not match any outer indentation level“
➥ To fix IndentationError: unindent does not match any outer indentation level use the same number of whitespaces for each line of code in a given block.
Let us try and fix the error in our example scenario given above. You simply, have to provide proper spacing before the else statement such that it complies with the entire
if-elif-else blocks within the
for loop.
Solution::
95 = grade A 75 = grade B 65 = grade C 45 = grade D 30 - FAIL!
✍️ Note:
- Generally, you should use four whitespaces for indentation and this is preferred over tabs.
- You can ignore indentation in line continuation, but it’s always recommended to indent your code for better readability.
- For example: if True :print(“Welcome To Finxter!”)
Let’s have a look at another example to ensure that you have a clear idea about the reason behind the occurrence of such an error.
Example 2
The following program is used to find the factorial of a number entered by the user.
def Factorial(n): # return factorial result = 1 for i in range(1, n): result = result * i print("factorial is ", result) return result num = int(input("Enter a number: ")) print(Factorial(num))
Output:
File "D:/PycharmProjects/PythonErrors/rough.py", line 6 return result ^ IndentationError: unindent does not match any outer indentation level
Explanation:
The above error occurred because of line 6 which indicates that the
return statement has an improper indentation. This happened because we mixed TAB and spaces in our code to indent the block of code within the function.
Solution:
To avoid this error, you can either use TAB or 4 whitespaces (recommended) before each line inside the function. Please note that the block within the for loop should have 8 white-spaces.
def Factorial(n): # return factorial result = 1 for i in range(1, n): result = result * i print("factorial is ", result) return result num = int(input("Enter a number: ")) print(Factorial(num))
Output:
Enter a number: 5 factorial is 24 24
🔰 Avoid or Fix IndentationError In Code Editors
From the above examples it is evident that the major reason behind IndentationError in Python is the improper use of whitespaces and tabs in your program. In most code editors you can fix the number of whitespace characters/ tabs by setting the indentation levels.
Let us have a look at the settings in various code editors that allow us to auto-indent our code or fix the pre-existing errors :
📝 Sublime Text
- Click on View.
- Select Indentation.
- Select Indentation to tabs.
- Uncheck the Indent Using Spaces option in the sub-menu above.
📝 Notepad ++
Follow the settings given below to view the tabs or whitespaces in Notepad++ .
- Click on View
- Select Show Symbol
- Make sure that Show Whitespace and TAB and Show Indent Guide options are checked.
🔰 Using an IDE
The advantage of using an IDE like PyCharm is that you do not have to worry about indentations in your code manually as this is taken care of by the IDE itself as show in the presentation given below.

Il blog di Red Hat
Blog menu
Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8 comes with a new feature called Application Streams (AppStreams), in which multiple versions of packages are provided, with a known period of support. These modules can be thought of as package groups that represent an application, a set of tools, or runtime languages.
Each of these modules can have different streams, which represent different versions of software, giving the user the option to use whichever version best suits their needs. Each module will also have installation profiles, which help to define a specific use case, and will determine which packages are installed on the system.
* Estimated timeline of support, for more information on life cycles please visit Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8 Application Streams Life Cycle
Modularity and AppStreams provide users access to newer versions of software while being supported longer. In the past users would typically have one or two versions to work with throughout the lifecycle of the operating system. Now users will have more choices when it comes to versions of popular languages and tools.
Starting with RHEL 8, Red Hat Software Collections along with Extras, Dotnet, and Devtools will be moved into and replaced by the Appstream repository.
Installing Applications via Modules
First things first, let's take a look at which modules are currently available to us after a fresh installation of RHEL 8.
We can display modules using
yum and see what modules and AppStreams are available to us.
# yum module list # lists all modules
As you can see there are quite a few already provided in the base installation. For our demonstration we are going to use one of the PostgreSQL modules. Let's take a look at which versions, or AppStreams are available for PostgreSQL.
# yum module info postgresql # lists all modules for postgresql
From this output we can see there are several AppStreams of PostgreSQL to work with. For now we are going to use stream 10, or version 10 of PostgreSQL, as it’s the default.
Each module will display pertinent information including stream version, profiles, repos, summary, description, and artifacts. We’ll delve a little deeper into some of these later, but for now we can see the stream version as 10, which also has a
[d] and
[a] next to it. These mean that this module version is the [d]efault and [a]ctive version that will be installed should a user attempt to install PostgreSQL via yum. If no stream is specified, the default and enabled one will always be installed.
Here is an example that we can break down to show all the options.
# yum install @module:version/profile
@moduledefines which module we are going to use.
:versionspecifies which stream we are going to use for the specified module.
/profiletells us which profile to use. If no profile is specified, the default one is used. If no default is defined, then the module is only enabled but no packages are installed.
Let’s go ahead and install the PostgreSQL module using just the defaults.
# yum install @postgresql # installs the default, PostgreSQL 10 module
Since we did not specify a stream or a profile, we can see that the defaults were used for both AppStream and profile. What if we don't want to use the defaults then? Let’s continue to see how we switch between different AppStreams and profiles.
Switching between different AppStreams in a module
A common challenge that Red Hat system administrators face are requests to install newer versions of applications then are included in the base RHEL repositories. With modules we can seamlessly change between available versions of a particular RPM.
How is that different from Red Hat Software Collections you might ask? Software Collections keeps multiple versions on one system, putting each package into separate namespaced paths. Modularity uses the standard RPM packaging, so paths are where you expect them to be. Keep in mind, unlike Software Collections, modules do not allow running multiple versions at the same time. Only one stream can be installed and used at a time.
We’re going to continue to use PostgreSQL, but for this example our application team is requesting we move to a newer version.
Let's see which AppStreams of PostgreSQL are available to us.
# yum module info postgresql # Lists all AppStreams available
Here we can see there is a newer version of PostgreSQL available to us through modules.
Before we can go ahead and install a newer version of PostgreSQL, we will need to reset the current module used and then install the newer version, specifying the stream.
# yum module reset PostgreSQL #Resets postgresql module
As you can see when we reset the module, the streams of that module are set to their initial state, neither enabled nor disabled. If a module has a default stream, in this case stream 10 for PostgreSQL, then it becomes active after the reset.
Now we can specify a newer stream and in this case, since there are no default profiles, we are going to select the server one. In the event a stream does not have a default profile specified with a [d] next to it, if you do not specify a profile, the stream will be enabled but no packages will be installed.
# yum module install postgresql:12/server #Installs stream 12
We can see that stream 12 has been enabled, the server profile will be used, and the PostgreSQL version 12 packages will be installed. If you wish to revert back to a previous stream, you just reset the profile as before, and specify an earlier stream during install.
Summary and Closing
AppStreams and modular content are great new tools, giving greater flexibility to users on which software to install, all while staying supported for longer. Our hope is that with the module build pipeline and client tooling made available, it will enable developers to continue to provide multiple versions of software. For additional information and documentation on usage and the AppStream life cycle you can visit Installing, Managing, And Removing User-Space Components.
You can find more about Appstream life cycles here: Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8 Application Streams Life Cycle.

libzapi(7)
zapi Manual - zapi/1.3.2
Name
libzapi - high-level C binding for ØMQ
Synopsis
#include <zapi.h> cc ['flags'] 'files' -lzmq -lzapi ['libraries']
Description
Scope and goals
libz
libzapi is maintained by Pieter Hintjens. Its other authors and contributors are listed in the AUTHORS file. It is held by the ZeroMQ organization at github.com.
The authors of libzapi libzapi you must be willing to maintain it as long as there are users of it. Code with no active maintainer will in general be deprecated and/or removed.
Using libzapi
Building and installing
libzapi uses autotools for packaging. To build from git (all example commands are for Linux):
git clone git://github.com/zeromq/libzapi.git cd libzapi libzapi selftests:
cd src ./zapi_selftest
Linking with an application
Include zapi.h in your application and link with libzapi. Here is a typical gcc link command:
gcc -lzapi -lzmq myapp.c -o myapp
c -lzapi -lzmq -l myapp
The class model
libzapi consists of classes, each class consisting of a .h and a .c. Classes may depend on other classes.
zapi.h includes all classes header files, all the time. For the user, libzapi forms one single package. All classes start by including zapi.h. All applications that use libzapi start by including zapi.h. zapi.h also defines a limited number of small, useful macros and typedefs that have proven useful for writing clearer C code.
All classes (with some exceptions) are based on a flat C class system and follow these rules (where zclass is the class name):
- Class typedef: zclass_t
- Constructor: zclass_new
- Destructor: zclass_destroy
- Property methods: zclass_property_set, zclass_property
- Class structures are private (defined in the .c source but not the .h)
- Properties are accessed only via methods named as described above.
- In the class source code the object is always called self.
- The constructor may take arbitrary arguments, and returns NULL on failure, or a new object.
- The destructor takes a pointer to an object reference and nullifies it.
Return values for methods are:
- For methods that return an object reference, either the reference, or NULL on failure.
- For methods that signal success/failure, a return value of 0 means sucess, -1 failure.
Private/static functions in a class are named s_functionname and are not exported via the header file.
All classes (with some exceptions) have a test method called zclass_test.
Design ideology-level C applications at iMatix from 1995-2005, is to create our own fully portable, high-quality libraries of pre-packaged libzapi:
- Some classes may not be opaque. For example, we have cases of generated serialization classes that encode and decode structures to/from binary buffers. It feels clumsy to have to use methods to access the properties of these classes.
- While every class has a new method that is the formal constructor, some methods may also act as constructors. For example, a "dup" method might take one object and return a second object.
-
libzapi aims for short, consistent names, following the theory that names we use most often should be shortest. Classes get one-word names, unless they are part of a family of classes in which case they may be two words, the first being the family name. Methods, similarly, get one-word names and we aim for consistency across classes (so a method that does something semantically similar in two classes will get the same name in both). So the canonical name for any method is:
zclassname_methodname
Containers
After a long experiment with containers, we've decided that we need exactly two containers:
- A singly-linked list.
--linked list.
Portability
Creating a portable C application can be rewarding in terms of maintaining a single code base across many platforms, and keeping (expensive) system-specific knowledge separate from application developers. In most projects (like ØMQ core), there is no portability layer and application code does conditional compilation for all mixes of platforms. This leads to quite messy code.
libzapi acts as a portability layer, similar to but thinner than libraries like the [Apache Portable Runtime]() (APR).
These are the places a C application is subject to arbitrary system differences:
- Different compilers may offer slightly different variants of the C language, often lacking specific types or using neat non-portable names. Windows is a big culprit here. We solve this by patching the language in zapi_prelude.h, e.g. defining int64_t on Windows.
- System header files are inconsistent, i.e. you need to include different files depending on the OS type and version. We solve this by pulling in all necessary header files in zapi_prelude.h. This is a proven brute-force approach that increases recompilation times but eliminates a major source of pain.
- System libraries are inconsistent, i.e. you need to link with different libraries depending on the OS type and version. We solve this with an external compilation tool, C, which detects the OS type and version (at runtime) and builds the necessary link commands.
-
libzapi uses the GNU autotools system, so non-portable code can use the macros this defines. It can also use macros defined by the zapi_prelude.h header file.
Technical aspects
- Thread safety: the use of opaque structures is thread safe, though ØMQ applications should not share state between threads in any case.
- Name spaces: we prefix class names with z, which ensures that all exported functions are globally safe.
- Library versioning: we don't make any attempt to version the library at this stage. Classes are in our experience highly stable once they are built and tested, the only changes typically being added methods.
- Performance: for critical path processing, you may want to avoid creating and destroying classes. However on modern Linux systems the heap allocator is very fast. Individual classes can choose whether or not to nullify their data on allocation.
- Self-testing: every class has a selftest method that runs through the methods of the class. In theory, calling all selftest functions of all classes does a full unit test of the library. The zapi_selftest application does this.
- Memory management: libzapi classes do not use any special memory management techiques to detect leaks. We've done this in the past but it makes the code relatively complex. Instead, we do memory leak testing using tools like valgrind.
Under the hood
Adding a new class
If you define a new libzapi class myclass you need to:
- Write the zmyclass.c and zmyclass.h source files, in src and include respectively.
- Add‘#include <zmyclass.h>` to include/zapi.h.
- Add the myclass header and test call to src/zapi_selftest.c.
- Add a reference documentation to doc/zmyclass.txt.
- Add myclass to ’src/Makefile.am`:
- The // comment style.
- Variables definitions placed in or before the code that uses them.
So while ANSI C code might say:
zblob_t *file_buffer; /* Buffer for our file */ ... (100 lines of code) file_buffer = zblob_new (); ...
The style in libzapi would be:
zblob_t *file_buffer = zblob_new ();
Assertions
We use assertions heavily to catch bad argument values. The libzapi classes do not attempt to validate arguments and report errors; bad arguments are treated as fatal application programming errors.
We also use assertions heavily on calls to system functions that are never supposed to fail, where failure is to be treated as a fatal non-recoverable error (e.g. running out of memory).
Assertion code should always take this form:
int rc = some_function (arguments); assert (rc == 0);
Rather than the side-effect form:
assert (some_function (arguments) == 0); () - start) >= 10); // @end
The template for man pages is in doc/mkman.
Development
libzapi is developed through a test-driven process that guarantees no memory violations or leaks in the code:
- Modify a class or method.
- Update the test method for that class.
- Run the selftest script, which uses the Valgrind memcheck tool.
- Repeat until perfect.
Porting libzapi
When you try libzapi zapi_prelude.h header file. There are several typical types of changes you may need to make to get functionality working on a specific operating system:
- Defining typedefs which are missing on that specific compiler: do this in zapi_prelude.h.
- Defining macros that rename exotic library functions to more conventional names: do this in zapi_prelude.h.
- Reimplementing specific methods to use a non-standard API: this is typically needed on Windows. Do this in the relevant class, using #ifdefs to properly differentiate code for different platforms.
The canonical standard operating system for all libzapi code is Linux, gcc, POSIX.

):
List<MyStruct> vec = new List<MyStruct>();
vec.Add(new MyStruct(10, 20));
vec[0].X += 1; // Error!
I always make my structs immutable. Once you start thinking of structs as immutable objects (which is very consistent with the very notion of a value type), it makes everything easier.
Is it useful to mention the solution of the above problem?
List<MyStruct> vec = new List<MyStruct>();
vec.Add(new MyStruct(10, 20));
vec[0] = new MyStruct(vec[0].X + 1, vec[0].Y);
Making structs immutable can make them even more ugly. If you only have two pieces of data, it is not two bad. But once you have to copy several properties into the constructor, to change one, it is not so good.
Also, making structs immutable is pointless if you are using structs for performance reasons. Usually we need to use an array of structs, and need the ability to change one property in each struct in the array. If you have to create a new one and copy it in, instead of changing in memory, you have wasted cycles that will not be picked up by the primitive optimizer.
So how does C# get around this problem with a regular array? Is it simply because the array is allocated on the stack? If so, could one create a struct that’s a custom collection and not a reference object?
So how does the .NET Garbage collector get around this problem with a regular array?
Is it simply because the array is also allocated on the stack rather than the heap?
If so, could one create a struct that’s a custom collection and not a reference object?
Heh – I was just about to post the same question as Philip Haack…
But I’d like to add to what he says. Regular arrays are *not* created on the stack. They’re objects on the managed heap. (Otherwise you wouldn’t be able to return arrays from functions, or store references to them in fields.)
So given that the IL opcode you use to retrieve an element from a value type array:
ldelema
returns an pointer to the element you asked for, surely that would be an interior pointer?
So apparently the CLR already supports the use of managed interior pointers into arrays because that’s how arrays work.
What’s special about arrays that lets this work?
Moreover, isn’t this what interior pointers are all about:
My understanding is that interior pointers are what C++/CLI uses to solve exactly this problem. So why don’t we have interior pointer support in C#?

structs would be very useful if the "Dispose" method was called automatically at block exit. In this way we could easily implement deterministic finalization, without the "using" keyword.
When we allocate an array of structs there is no managed pointers to those structs.
if we had managed pointers to a struct in an array it would invalidate the main purpose of that scheisse – ability to allocate a big chunk of memory at once
otherwise GC would move tham as it wants
so just use classes if you need lvalue
What about adding the ability for C# to access the unnamed box type associated with particulary value type? That way you can do something like this
List<box MyStruct>
which would allow you to treat a value type as a reference if you want.
Since interior pointers already exist (or will for 2.0, if they don’t already) I don’t understand the problem.

To ‘Scheisse’:
You’ve missed the point. And it looks like perhaps you haven’t read the spec either. If you read section 11.1.1 ("Native Size: native int, native unsigned int, O and &") of Partion I of the ECMA CLI spec, and specifically the sub-section Managed Pointer Types: O and &" You’ll find that it says:
"The & datatype (managed pointer) is similar to the O type, but points to the interior of an object. That is, a managed pointer is allowed to point to a field within an object or an element within an array"
So when you say:
"When we allocate an array of structs there is no managed pointers to those structs."
while this may be true at the point of allocation, it ignores the rather more important fact that it is perfectly possible to get a managed pointer to any struct in the array. Sure, those managed pointers don’t all exist as soon as you create the array, but I was never saying that they do or that they should. I’m not really sure why you introduced the subject of what happens at the instant at which the array is created, because it’s not relevant to this discussion. The important point is that you *can* get a managed pointer to a struct in an array when you need one.
In fact you positively *have* to get managed pointers to the structs in the array in order to do anything with them!
The only way to retrieve an element from an array of structs is to use the ‘ldelema’ IL instruction. This returns a managed pointer to the struct you wanted inside the array. So if you are accessing an element in an array of values, you *are* dealing with an lvalue – no need to resort to reference types.
Nonetheless, your claim that this invalidates the point of using structs is incorrect. The managed pointers are only in existence either on the evaluation stack or as locals, and typically have an extremely short lifetime. The array spends most of its life with no active pointers into it. So the overheads involved with using an array of reference type do not exist with a value type, despite the fact that using an array of value type necessarily involves working with managed pointers into that array.
Note that if the GC moves the array while there happens to be an active managed pointer into it, any managed pointers that were pointing into it get updated as part of the GC process. (I think this is a an emergent property of normative parts of the spec, but it is explicitly called out in the informative section 11.1.15, "CIL Instructions and Pointer Types".)
Section 13.4.2 of Partition II of the ECMA CLI spec ("Managed Pointers") also contains some more useful information on this general area. (It’s another ‘informative only’ section, but does pull together a lot of useful information from various parts of the spec.)
To the ever-inflamatory DrPizza: managed pointers have been in the CLR since v1, as they are fundamental to how arrays of structs work. And they’ve also had a degree of explicit support in C# since v1 as it happens. What do you think the ‘ref’ keyword does?
The problem is not that the C# language doesn’t support unmanaged pointers – actually it does. The problem is that it places some arbitrary restraints on the use of managed pointers – essentially you can only pass them into functions, and not back out. (Or use them implicitly through arrays.) Managed pointers do in fact have some slightly funny restrictions – the conceptual model for how you can and can’t use them is a bit weird. So C# uses a conservative model – it reduces the power in exchange for a simple programming model.
Given that part of the philsophy of C# is that simplicity is more important than completeness, I can see them not wanting to support the full strangeness of interior pointers as a language feature. It’s inconvenient, but I have to admit that the alternative is ugly.
C++ on the other hand is happy to expose the underlying awkwardness of constructs in the name of completeness.
To me, structs look more and more like a bad idea. Wouldn’t C# be a better language without them? Then we would not have these funny restrictions.
I can’t see where structs supports the ‘simplicity’ model. Some other things are not simple anymore. Or is there a difference between ‘obvious’ and ‘simple’?
Thomas Eyde:
You need the ‘struct’ type to do P/Invoke.
Not to mention that without structs DateTime and Decimal would be a LOT more heavyweight than they need to be.
If all structs that weren’t internal and used only for P/Invoke were correctly made immutable, then you wouldn’t notice any difference when using them.
That’s why Decimal feels like int…because it’s immutable. Once you make it mutable you have to worry about references to structs.
(Oh, and structs such as List<T>.Enumerator are fine too…even they aren’t really immutable–but few people even touch the enumerator directly).
No structs? Please don’t even think about it. Regardsless of how fast the GC becomes, stack and register based data is faster, simply because it cannot be aliased (modified in multiple places simultaneously). This means optimizers, perhaps even more in the future, can make temporary structs really fly.
Without structs you can forget about fast math or graphics libraries.
Seeing as it’s possible to return a managed pointer in IL and MC++, I see no point in not extending the use of the ref keyword to support this in C# also.
public static ref int First(int[] array)
{ return ref array[0]; }
static void Main(string[] args)
{
int[] array = new int[] { 0, 1, 2 };
ref int val = First(array);
val = 10;
Console.WriteLine(array[0] == 10);
}
Paul, the problem then becomes the fact that there are restrictions as to what you can do with such things.
For example, you can’t store an interior pointer in a field of a class or struct. So this is ruled out:
public class Foo
{
public ref int ri;
}
Now consider the implications of this for their use as local variables. As of C# 2.0, a local variable is not always implemented as a local at the IL level.
In C# v1.x it is – there is a direct correspondence between the idea of a C# variable and an IL local variable. The reason this changed in c# 2.0 is the support for anonymous delegates. They have access to everything that was in scope at the point at which they were defined even if they outlive that scope.
This is done by moving any variables declared outside of but used from inside of the anonymous method into a class, rather than storing the variables as locals at the IL level. That’s the only way to make the variable accessible to both scopes. (Remember that the anonymous method’s scoope may be syntacticaly nested in its containing scope, but its allowed to outlive that containing scope.)
So what would happen if we were to add an anonymous method to your Main function above?
EventHandler dlg = delegate
{
val = 20;
};
This can’t possibly work. In order to make val accessible to this anonymous method, it has to be hoisted into the generated class that holds variables shared across the scopes. But since your ‘val’ variable is an interior pointer, it’s not allowed to live in a class. So this can’t be done.
This means you have some pretty subtle restrictions on when you can use a ‘ref variable’ of this type. The only practical way to understand where you can and can’t use it is to understand everything that’s going on under the covers.
So I think that’s why C++ supports this kind of thing – the philosophy of that language is to make all the grungy innards available for the developer to tinker with. But I’ve not seen any evidence that interior pointers could be integrated into C# without compromising the philosophy of simplicity that underpins the language.
Can somebody help this newbie understand the difference between a mutable and immutable struct, by way of a concrete example in C#?
Thanks.
Not a problem as this is already caught by the compiler. Try this little one out:
public EventHandler F(ref int someInt)
{
EventHandler dlg = delegate
{
someInt = 20;
};
return dlg;
}
The compiler already handles managed pointers at the local scope and in fact needs to. In the above function I’m declaring that I have a managed pointer in the parameters. This is a local variable that is explicitly a managed pointer.
I’m not allowed to do the same thing myself unless it’s a parameter, which is an arbitrary constraint. Notice that the only difference between what we have now and what I propose is that I can declare a ref in scope to receive a managed pointer.
I do not believe that references to local variables should be allowed, as the following is just a waste. We could have just used numberOne anywhere we plan on using numberTwo.
int numberOne = 300;
ref int numberTwo = ref numberOne;
numberTwo 2 = 400; // now numberOne == 400
I believe that the ref keyword, should be used only for receiving "ref returns", or receiving references to heap members. Example:
ref MyBigDataBlock data = largeBlockCache.GetBlock(12);
// etc..
MyBigStruct[] myArray = new MyBigStruct[30];
for(int i = 0; i < myArray.Length; i++)
{
// need ref in front of myArray[i] just as if we we’re passing it to function
// that had a ref parameter.
ref MyBigStruct temp = ref myArray[i];
temp.SomeInitializer();
temp.SomeFloat = 2316738.3225;
// etc..
}
Just like ref parameters though a ref declared locally can only be assigned at creation, which means it’s impossible to assigning it to a new managed pointer. Example:
string[] names = new string[10];
ref string firstName = ref names[0];
firstName = "Bob" // names[0] is now "Bob"
firstName = ref names[1] // error wrong type, cannot convert string reference to string
Not that I advocate having everything in C++/CLI be in C# but, I would at least like a way to access the values returned as managed pointers, especially since it can be verified CLR. Anytime I can switch somethings from C++/CLI to C# and still not need the UnmanagedCode security, I’m a happy man.
Just to be clear, I’m dead set on this not being a CLS compliant
feature.
Imutable struct:
struct SquareInt
{
private int _sqValue;
public SquareInt(int value) { _sqValue = value * value; }
public int Value { get { return _sqValue; } }
}
Notice that SquareInt can only be assigned a value at creation. Even though _sqValue isn’t readonly.
That’s imutable, means if you what another one with a different value, you best create a new one.
Strings, on the other hand, are not structs but, are still imutable because you cannot change it’s value. You can say:
string word = "dog";
word[2] = ‘t’;
Doesn’t work, cause theres noway to change it once it’s been created.
As it turns out, using managed pointers for parameters, locals, and returns is all verifiable and part of CLS. So it seems that returning a managed pointer is already part of CLS?!? There is a special case for properties:
<blockquote><strong>CLS Rule 27:</strong> The type of a property shall be the return type of the getter and the type of the last argument of the setter. The types of the parameters of the property shall be the types of the parameters to the getter and the types of all but the final parameter of the setter. All of these types shall be CLS-compliant, and shall not be managed pointers (i.e. shall not be passed by reference).</blockquote>
Basically having a setter for a property that is a managed pointer is a no-no in CLS.
<pre>ref T this{int index]
{
get { return ref _array[index]; } // CLS compliant
set { _array[index] = value; } // Not CLS compliant
// (equivalent to: void set_Item(int index, ref T value)
// not really need either if we have the pointer
}</pre>
From a C# persective builtin arrays have a indexer property that returns a managed pointer.
Now for the weird part. While returning a managed pointer is verifiable, calling such a fuction isn’t.
<blockquote><strong>ECMA spec 1.8.1.2.1 Verification Types [just before 1.8.1.2.2]:</strong> A method can be defined as returning a managed pointer, but calls upon such methods are not verifiable.
<strong>Rationale:</strong> some uses of returning a managed pointer are perfectly verifiable (eg, returning a reference to a field in an object); but some not (eg, returning a pointer to a local variable of the called method). Tracking this in the general case is a burden, and therefore not included in this standard</blockquote>
Now if anybody can understand why that statement makes sense, please explain it to me. Because obviously, if the function is verified then, all the type constraints and other sanity checks all passed; including checking wether the type of the managed pointer matched. If a function is verifed then how should calling it should result in unverified behavior. That’s like getting a warenty that’s only good as long as you don’t use the product, kinda useless. It means that the function isn’t "completely" verified, a half-assed attempt was made.
Ok, so basically if a function returns a managed pointer, then it is marked as verified when it really isn’t. The only thing that prevents truely verifing the function is to check the instruction used to get the pointer. There are only three instructions that create pointers to memory not on the heap: <strong>ldarga</strong>, <strong>ldloca</strong>, and <strong>ldsflda</strong>. And only <strong>ldloca</strong> will get can a pointer that’s only valid for the lifetime of the fuction.
How is checking out that a managed pointer is pointing to a anything except a local stack variable a "burden". One need only track that <strong>ldloca</strong> wasn’t used to get the managed pointer being returned. This could be the inclusion of another verification type in the stack simulation or a second pass evaluation when the return is a managed pointer.

It's still not perfect ;). What I meant, was that try_quick_lock()
and get_path_name() could be done in a single traversal of the nodes.
Here's the top of the profile output I got with the above test:

The worst offender get_node_nocheck() could be halved by not
traversing the nodes twice.
The performance of pthread_* functions also sucks badly, but we can't
do much about that.

Well, we know the start, and we know how far we got with the trylock
attempt. That should make it possible to unlock them using the same
traversal, and stop when it reaches the node on which the trylock
failed. Holding a lock on a node guarantees, that the parent can't
change.
Of course traversing the nodes again might be more expensive than
storing them in the list, but calloc seems to be a bad offender, and I
suspect it's mostly for the locked list allocation.

I'm thinking of the following sequence of events:
- quick lock for getattr fails (rename in progress)
- collect nodes for getattr (rename finishes during the collection)
- verify fails, because the rename messed up the path
- retry
In theory this could go on forever whithout getattr ever succeeding.

Yes, I don't expect this will be observable in practice, or only very
rarely. Still if there's some simple way to avoid this, then that
would be nice.

ASP.NET and ASP.NET MVC Tools
ReSharper helps you.
Code Inspections and Quick-Fixes
Whenever you work with C# code used in ASP.NET markup and in code-behind files, you enjoy the complete ReSharper feature coverage, including the whole range of code inspections and quick-fixes. In addition, there are code inspections and quick-fixes that are ASP.NET-specific: for example, ReSharper detects unused import namespaces, unknown symbols and entities in aspx pages.
Marker Bar and Status Indicator are available in ASP.NET markup files as well, to help you navigate between code issues that ReSharper discovers.
Context Actions
ReSharper provides a number of context actions to help you in common ASP.NET markup scenarios.
For example, ASP.NET context actions enable you to replace, collapse or remove tags; convert HTML entities; create events, functions and properties; insert table columns and rows; add code-behind files.
Navigation and Search
Much of ReSharper's navigation feature pack is available in ASP.NET.
For example, if you want to get an overview of markup items in your currently opened aspx file, press Ctrl+Alt+F to display the File Structure tool window. File Structure derivatives, such as Go to File Member, Go to Next/Previous Member, and Go to Containing Declaration, are at your disposal as well.
Other navigation actions that come handy in ASP.NET projects include
Go to Declaration, which is especially
useful for navigation to user controls and master pages from references, and
Go to Usages of Symbol for navigation from
ContentPlaceHolder tags to their
Content counterparts, or from a
master page reference to any web forms that use it.

Go to Related Files — Ctrl+Alt+F7 — is a web-specific navigation action that takes you from a markup file to any files that it references, including code-behind files, master pages, user controls, images, JavaScript and CSS files, ASP.NET MVC views and controllers
Syntax Highlighting
When you inline code render blocks in your aspx pages using C# or VB.NET, ReSharper's syntax highlighting helps you:
- Easily spot action and controller names in ASP.NET MVC calls. (Read more about this and other ReSharper features for ASP.NET MVC.)
- Take advantage of regular syntax highlighting for C# and VB.NET code.
Code Templates
ReSharper enables ASP.NET and ASP.NET MVC developers to generate web forms, tags, and attributes with a set of 20 bundled web-specific templates:
- Live templates — Ctrl+E,L — for ASP.NET speed up creating new controls, script blocks, tags, and attributes.
- Surround templates — Ctrl+E, U — help wrap text or code with tags, links, or
foreachblocks.
- File templates — Ctrl+Alt+Ins — facilitate creating new web forms, user controls, and master pages.
Code Generation
ReSharper is able to generate
Content tags in markup pages based on
ContentPlaceHolder
tags defined in a referenced master page.
Another feature is to generate event subscription methods in ASP.NET code-behind files.
You can invoke these as well as common C# and VB.NET code generation features available in the current context by pressing Alt+Ins in the editor.
Code Completion
Code Completion
(including Smart Completion) works with
tag names and attribute values.
Import Symbol Completion helps
you reference non-imported user controls without registering them in advance: ReSharper will
generate the
Register directive automatically.
Moreover, ReSharper provides code completion for JavaScript symbols..
Other Coding Assistants
ReSharper will auto-insert a matching closing tag as soon as you've entered an opening tag, or a closing quote after you've entered an opening quote for an attribute value. More than that, such matching delimiters are highlighted when you put the caret on either of them..
ASP.NET MVC Support
ReSharper provides a set of features that are specific to ASP.NET MVC projects.
In addition to features described above and common C#/VB.NET support to help you write code in your controllers, you will be able to navigate between actions and controllers, enjoy special syntax highlighting and code completion that is aware of action references in string literals, create actions and controllers from usage, and do more in both aspx and Razor view engines.
Note on shortcuts
All keyboard shortcuts provided in this page are available in ReSharper's default "Visual Studio" keymap. For details on ReSharper's two keymaps, see ReSharper Documentation. | http://www.jetbrains.com/resharper/features/asp_net_editor.html | CC-MAIN-2016-40 | refinedweb | 724 | 56.35 |

You probably already realize this, but I thought I would point out the obvious. Given a suitably modified MyClass... >>> x = {} >>> a = MyClass() >>> a.a = 8 >>> x[a] = a >>> a.a = 9 >>> x[a] = a >>> >>> x {<__main__.MyClass instance at 0x007E0A08>: <__main__.MyClass instance at 0x007E 0A08>, <__main__.MyClass instance at 0x007E0A08>: <__main__.MyClass instance at 0x007E0A08>} Of course everyone is saying "Josiah, people shouldn't be doing that"; but they will. Given a mechanism to offer hash-by-value, a large number of users will think that it will work for what they want, regardless of the fact that in order for it to really work, those attributes must be read-only by semantics or access mechanisms. Not everyone who uses Python understands fully the concepts of mutability and immutability, and very few will realize that the attributes returned by __key() need to be immutable aspects of the instance of that class (you can perform at most one assignment to the attribute during its lifetime, and that assignment must occur before any hash calls). Call me a pessimist, but I don't believe that using magical key methods will be helpful for understanding or using Python. - Josiah | https://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-dev/2005-November/057932.html | CC-MAIN-2022-05 | refinedweb | 332 | 63.7 |

React.
Creating a Hello World App
First, let’s create our sample React app. For this tutorial, you need Node and NPM to be installed in your environment. After that, execute the following command to install the react boilerplate app creator.
npm install -g create-react-app
Next, we can create our hello world app using the below command.
create-react-app hello-world
Now if we look at the file structure within the hello world app, there are three important files. Those are public/index.html, src/index.js, and src/App.js files. In the index.html file, you can see that there is a div with the id root and in the index.js file there's the below code segment.
ReactDOM.render(, document.getElementById(‘root’));
This is the starting point of our app. Basically, React will inject out app component into the div with the root id. Now you might be wondering, what is the app component? If you look at the App.js file, you will be able to see the app component. In React, it is the convention to name JavaScript files with the same name as the component.
React Component
Now let’s look at a React component.
import React, { Component } from 'react'; class App extends Component { render() { return ( <div className="greeting"> <h1> Hello World! </h1> </div> ); } }
Above is the simplest component we can write in React. We can create a JavaScript class for our component and extend it from the Component class from the React library (Note the import statement). After that, we need to implement the
render() method. Prior to React 16, it was a must to return a single element from render method. But with React 16, we can return an array of elements. Now, if we execute an
npm start command within the hello world directory, we can see that 'Hello World' is rendered in
React JSX (Syntactic Sugar for JS)
In the render method of the component, we can almost use the HTML syntax. But in reality, this is actually JavaScript, specifically known as JSX. JSX is a template language which has a similar structure to HTML with the full power of JavaScript. Hence, you can evaluate any JavaScript statement within the render method.
As an example, the JSX code we wrote earlier (shown below)
const element = ( <h1 className="greeting"> Hello, world! </h1> );
will be compiled into the JavaScript code shown below.
const element = React.createElement( 'h1', {className: 'greeting'}, 'Hello, world!' );
In reality, JSX was introduced to make developers' lives easier by providing a familiar syntactic sugar.
State vs. Props
Now let’s create another component named Alice under the src/Alice.js file. The content of the Alice component would be as below.
import React, { Component } from 'react'; class Alice extends Component { render() { return ( <div> <h2> Hi, I am Alice </h2> </div> ); } } export default Alice;
Now we can include this Alice component as a child component in our App component as shown below.
import React, { Component } from 'react'; import Alice from './Alice'; class App extends Component { render() { return ( <div className="greeting"> <h1> Hello World! </h1> <Alice/> </div> ); } } export default App;
Note the new import statement for the Alice component. Without that, our app will break since React is unable to find the component which corresponds to the Alice tag.
Next, let’s see how we can manipulate the state of our components. For each React component, there is a state and by manipulating the state object we can change the behavior of our component. This state object is specific to the component.
import React, { Component } from 'react'; import Alice from './Alice'; class App extends Component { constructor() { super(); this.state = { greeting: "Hello World!" } } render() { return ( <div className="greeting"> <h1> {this.state.greeting} </h1> <Alice/> </div> ); } } export default App;
As shown above, we can declare the state object within the constructor (note that it is a must to call
super() within the constructor of a React component). This state object contains the
greetings property with the value “Hello World!” In the render method, we have used this property as {this.state.greeting}, and this is the usual way of evaluating JavaScript expressions within JSX. You can add as many properties as you want to the state object. Now let’s see how we can pass data from the App component into its child component, Alice.
import React, { Component } from 'react'; import Alice from './Alice'; class App extends Component { constructor() { super(); this.state = { greeting: "Hello World!", parentMessage: "Hello Alice!" } } render() { return ( <div className="greeting"> <h1> {this.state.greeting} </h1> <Alice newMsg={this.state.parentMessage} /> </div> ); } } export default App;
In the modified App component (shown above), I have added another property named
parentMessage and passed it to Alice component as shown below.
<Alice newMsg={this.state.parentMessage} />
Note that
newMsg is the key I’ve used to pass the data and, for that, you can use any valid string. Now, let’s look at the corresponding Alice Component.
import React, { Component } from 'react'; class Alice extends Component { constructor(props) { super(props) this.state = { greeting: props.newMsg } } render() { return ( <div> <h2> {this.state.greeting} </h2> </div> ); } } export default Alice;
If you look at the constructor of the Alice component, there is a method argument named
props. This object contains all the data passed from the parent component (input from parent component to the child component). I have initialized the state of the Alice component using the
newMsg property passed from the App component. If you have used another string as the key instead of
newMsg, you can access it with the following pattern:
props.newMsg.
Now the app should be rendered as shown below (Figure 2).
The below table summarizes the basic differences between
state and
props objects of a component.
Another very important thing to note is that whenever we want to modify the
state object, we do it through the
this.setState() method, as shown below.
import React, { Component } from 'react'; import Alice from './Alice'; class App extends Component { constructor() { super(); this.state = { greeting: "Hello World!", parentMessage: "Hello Alice!" } setTimeout(() => { this.setState({greeting : "Hello World Updated!"}) }, 10000) } render() { return ( <div className="greeting"> <h1> {this.state.greeting} </h1> <Alice newMsg={this.state.parentMessage} /> </div> ); } } export default App;
In the constructor, I have added a timeout function which modifies the greeting message to “Hello World Update!” after 10 seconds. DO NOT use
this.state.greeting = “Hello World Updated!” to update the state as it would not work since React uses an event-driven approach rather than using dirty checking to maintain the state of React components.
React Component Lifecycle
React provides highly valuable lifecycle hooks (method) for each state of the component as listed below. These methods can be classified into 3 categories: mounting, updating, and unmounting.
Mounting hooks are fired when the React component is initially being rendered in the browser page. The below methods are fired in the specified order.
constructor()- Invoked when creating the React component for the first time.
componentWillMount()- Invoked before adding the component to the actual DOM of the web page.
render()- Invoked when adding the component to the actual DOM.
componentDidMount()- Invoked after adding the component to the actual DOM.
Updating methods are invoked when the component is re-rendered on the web page. This happens due to changes in state/props objects. The elow methods are invoked in the specified order.
componentWillReceiveProps(newProps)- This method is invoked when new props are received from the parent component. Note that this method will not be invoked at the initial time when the component is created even though parent component passes props. The initial time should be handled within the constructor.
shouldComponentUpdate(nextProps, nextState)- This method is invoked before the component is re-rendered. It is a must to return a boolean from this method. If true is returned, the component will be re-rendered and the component will not be re-rendered if false is returned.
componentWillUpdate()- This method is invoked before the component is re-rendered in the actual DOM.
render()- Invoked when the component is re-rendered in the actual DOM.
componentDidUpdate()- Invoked after the modified component is re-rendered on the actual DOM.
As for the unmounting, there is one hook named
componentWillUnmount(). This method is invoked immediately before the component is removed from the actual DOM. Apart from that, starting with React 16, there is another lifecycle hook named
componentDidCatch() which will be invoked when there is an exception during any of the lifecycle hooks of the component. This method can be used to gracefully show an error message when a React component fails to function as expected. For more information on the component lifecycle events, take a look at the awesome React documentation.
Virtual DOM vs Real DOM
When applying the changes of a React component to the actual web page, React uses a virtual DOM to calculate the changes and then apply only the modified bits into the real DOM. Since React completely builds the virtual DOM, you might be wondering, why not build the actual DOM instead? Re-building the actual DOM is quite expensive since the browser needs to re-calculate all the CSS properties, re-draw the canvas, and fire all the event listeners unnecessarily. Hence, building the virtual DOM and applying only the difference to the actual DOM is quite efficient and this process is known as reconciliation. React implements a heuristic based algorithm to calculate the difference between the virtual and actual DOMs, which has a time complexity of O(n).
As an example, when rendering a component, initially both DOMs are empty (Figure 3).
First, the virtual DOM is populated with the content (Figure 4).
Next, the real DOM is populated with the content and the virtual DOM is cleared (Figure 5).
After that, for any change, the complete virtual DOM is generated with the newly modified content (Figure 6).
Next, the difference is calculated and only the modified section is updated in the real DOM and the virtual DOM will be cleared (Figure 7).
This sums up for the basic introduction to the React.js and it is time for you to get your hands dirty and start building your first React app to get some first-hand experience. In the next blog post let’s see how we can craft an elegant data flow between React components using Flux. Until then, happy coding!

NHibernate knows when an object under its watch has changed. As soon as the object changes, it is "dirty". Some other changes might cause an object to be dirty as well. One that my team recently encountered is a cast. We use an enum of type byte. It's only a few items (less than 255), so we use a tinyint in our database. When our mapping uses type="byte", NHibernate casts from the byte to our Enum type when hydrating the object. This cast is a change because when NHibernate checks the value, it's an Enum, not a byte.
To get around this cast (implicit or not), we use the fully qualified type name of the Enum in the mapping. NHibernate understands Enums natively, so just put in the enum type, and you are off to the races. Note that if you are using an Enum that is nested inside a public class, you need to follow .Net's rules for fully-qualified type names.

kill(2) [osf1 man page]
kill(2) System Calls Manual kill(2) NAME
kill - Sends a signal to a process or to a group of processes SYNOPSIS
#include <signal.h> int kill( pid_t process, int signal ); Application developers may want to specify an #include statement for <sys/types.h> before the one for <signal: kill(): XSH5.0 Refer to the standards(5) reference page for more information about industry standards and associated tags. PARAMETERS
Specifies the process or group of processes. Specifies the signal. If the signal parameter is a value of 0 (the null signal), error check- ing is performed but no signal is sent. This can be used to check the validity of the process parameter. DESCRIPTION
The kill() function sends the signal specified by the signal parameter to the process or group of processes specified by the process param- eter. To send a signal to another process, at least one of the following must be true: The real or the saved set-user-ID of the sending process matches the real or effective user ID of the receiving process. The process is trying to send the SIGCONT signal to one of its session's processes. The calling process has root privileges. Processes can send signals to themselves. Sending a signal does not imply that the operation is successful. All signal operations must pass the access checks prescribed by each enforced access control policy on the system. If the process parameter is greater than 0 (zero), the signal specified by the signal parameter is sent to the process that has a process ID equal to the value of the process parameter. If the process parameter is equal to 0 (zero), the signal specified by the signal parameter is sent to all of the processes (other than system processes) whose process group ID is equal to the process group ID of the sender. If the process parameter is equal to -1, the signal specified by the signal parameter is sent to all of the processes other than system processes for which the process has permission to send that signal. For example, if the effective user ID of the sender has root privi- leges, the signal specified by the signal parameter is sent to all of the processes other than system processes. If the process parameter is negative but not -1, the signal specified by the signal parameter is sent to all of the processes which have a process group ID equal to the absolute value of the process parameter. RETURN VALUES
Upon successful completion, the kill() function returns a value of 0 (zero). Otherwise, a value of -1 is returned and errno is set to indi- cate the error. NOTES
Some applications and scripts depend on the process ID of the init program being 1 (one): do not depend on it. Instead, use standard methods, such as the ps and grep commands, to obtain all process IDs. ERRORS
The kill() function sets errno to the specified values for the following conditions: The signal parameter is not a valid signal number. [Tru64 UNIX] The signal parameter is SIGKILL, SIGSTOP, SIGTSTP or SIGCONT and the process parameter is the process ID of the init program. No process or process group can be found corresponding to that specified by the process parameter. The real or saved user ID does not match the real or effective user ID of the receiving process, the calling process does not have appropriate privilege, and the process is not sending a SIGCONT signal to one of its session's processes. [Tru64 UNIX] The calling process does not have appropriate privilege. RELATED INFORMATION

If you've only got two states available to you and/or you can onlyexchange states, then there's a limit to what you can actually do. You can losethe spinlock in the up() fastpath if you're willing to forgo fairness or resortto waking up processes superfluously.Ingo and Nick have a point about using CMPXCHG or equivalent if it'savailable. This lets you modify the state you have, rather than swapping it fora whole new state; in which case the state can be annotated to indicate thatthere is waking up to be done, thus permitting the fast path to be muchfaster. But this can only be done in the case where the state may be modified.As I tried to make clear: this is the simplest I could come up with, but I havemade provision for overriding it with something better if that's possible.David-To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" inthe body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.orgMore majordomo info at read the FAQ at | https://lkml.org/lkml/2005/12/13/127 | CC-MAIN-2017-22 | refinedweb | 409 | 57.77 |

Pandas DataFrames are a thing of beauty. DataFrames in Python makes the handling of data very user friendly.
You can import large datasets using Pandas and then manipulate them effectively. You can easily import CSV data into a Pandas DataFrame.
But, What are Dataframes in Python, and How to Use Them?
Dataframes are a 2-dimensional labeled data structure with columns that can be of different types.
You can use DataFrames for various kinds of analysis.
Often the dataset is too big and it’s not possible to look at the entire dataset at once. Instead, we want to see the summary of the Dataframe.
Under summary we can get the first five rows of the dataset, we can get also get a quick statistical summary of the data. Apart from that we can get information about the type of columns we have in our dataset.
In this tutorial we will learn how to display such summary for a DataFrame in Python.
We will be using the California Housing dataset as the sample dataset for this tutorial.
1. Import the Dataset in a Pandas Dataframe
Let’s start by importing the dataset into a Pandas Dataframe.
To import the dataset into a Pandas Dataframe use the following set of lines:
import pandas as pd housing = pd.read_csv('path_to_dataset')
This will store the dataset as a DataFrame in the variable ‘housing’.
Now we can look at different types of data summary that is available to us in Pandas.
2. Get the first 5 rowss
After importing a dataset for the first time it is common for data scientists to have a look at the first five rows of the Dataframe. It gives a rough idea of what the data looks like.
To output the first five rows of the Dataframe, use the following line of code:
housing.head()
When you run the following line, you will see the output as :
The complete code for displaying the first five rows of the Dataframe is given below.
import pandas as pd housing = pd.read_csv('path_to_dataset') housing.head()
3. Get statistical summary
To get a statistical summary of your Dataframe you can use the .describe() method provided by pandas.
The line of code to display the statistical summary is as follows :
housing.describe()
Running this line of code will give the following output.
The complete code is as follows:
import pandas as pd housing = pd.read_csv('path_to_dataset') housing.describe()
The output displays quantities like mean, standard deviation, minimum, maximum, and percentiles. You can use the same code for all the below examples, and only replace the function name as mentioned for each example.
3. Get a quick description of the data
To get the quick description of the type of data in the table you can use .info() method provided by Pandas.
You can use the following line of code to get the description :
housing.info()
The output looks like as shown below :
The output contains a row for each column of the dataset. For each column label you get the count of non null entries and the data-type of the entry.
Knowing the data type of the columns in your dataset allows you to make better judgements when it comes to using the data to train models.
4. Get count for each column
You can directly get the count of entries in each column using the .count() method in Pandas.
You can use this method as shown in the following line of code :
housing.count()
The output comes out as following:
Displaying the count for each column can tell you about any missing entries in your data. Subsequently, you can plan your data cleaning strategy.
Get a Histogram for each column in your dataset
Pandas allow you to display histograms for each and every column in just one line of code.
To display histograms use the following line of code :
housing.hist()
After running the line above, we get the output as :
Data scientists often use histograms to form a better understanding of the data.
Conclusion
This tutorial was about different types of quick summary that you can get for a Dataframe in Python. Hope you had fun learning with us! | https://www.askpython.com/python-modules/pandas/dataframes-in-python | CC-MAIN-2021-31 | refinedweb | 699 | 72.97 |
Any programming language that fails to add new functionality over time has stopped being a technology with a future and become a technology of the past. Python 3 continues to move forward with the addition of significant new features, though it’s difficult to keep up with them when you’re preoccupied with the nitty-gritty of your development work.
Here are six of the newest features in the last few versions of Python 3 that not only deserve your attention, but probably a place in your software projects.
F-strings
The Zen of Python states that there should be one obvious way to do things. String formatting in Python deviates greatly from this rule, because there is a slew of ways to do it. But the “f-string” format, unveiled in Python 3.6, is both the fastest and among the most convenient. Nevertheless, many Python programmers, who learned string formatting on earlier versions of Python, don’t take advantage of them.
To use an f-string, just place the variable you want to include in the string in curly braces, and decorate the string with an
f prefix:
filename = "file.jpg" f_name_str = f"Your file is {filename}"
The result:
Your file is file.jpg
Most any valid Python expression can be placed in the curly brackets. You can decorate expressions therein with Python’s internal expression formatting language. And you can use triple quotes for multi-line f-strings.
These advantages make f-strings a convenient first choice for string formatting, since they cover the vast majority of use cases elegantly. About the only time you would not want to use f-strings is when you need to pass arbitrary formatting parameters via the
.format command.
Another benefit: f-strings render far faster than the
format command or the
% string-rendering operator. In most cases f-strings are nearly twice as fast as
format, slightly faster than
%, and an order of magnitude faster than the
Template formatting object.
Python 3.8 added a new plus to f-strings: internal debugging. Add an equal sign to the end of an f-string expression and you’ll see additional data when the string is rendered:
filename = "file.jpg" f_name_str = f"Your file is {filename=}"
The result:
Your file is filename='file.jpg'
Async
Asynchronous programming, or async for short, lets you queue up multiple tasks that need to wait on outside events, like network requests or disk I/O, and switch efficiently between them. Async is a way to give some jobs the efficiency of multithreading, but with far less operational overhead. Async operations take up much less memory and switch far faster than threads.
Python introduced the
asyncio library in version 3.4 and the
async/
await keywords in version 3.5, and the language has been steadily adding and improving how async works ever since.
If you’re not already using async in your code, it’s worth exploring. After all, any program that spends time waiting for disk or network operations would benefit from asynchronous code. The one caveat: Async can be tricky to learn at first, because it requires thinking differently about your code.
Data classes
Python 3.7 introduced data classes, which provide a way to write classes that store many data elements without using lots of boilerplate constructor or initializer code. For example:
from dataclasses import dataclass @dataclass class Student: name: str student_id: int gpa: float
This code automatically generates the
__init__ function to assign
name,
student_id, and
gpa to their respective variables in the class instance. It also generates comparison operators for the class. The resulting class is a class just like any other; the only difference is how it is defined.
If you create classes that are mainly containers for many named data elements with some methods attached to them, data classes can spare you the hassle of writing the nitty-gritty initialization details for each class.
Assignment expressions (the “walrus operator”)
Here is a common construction:
my_val = func_result() if my_val == 1: do_something_else()
The assignment expression syntax, or “walrus operator” as it is also known, lets you condense the assignment of a variable in the local scope to a single line.
if (my_val:=func_result()) == 1: do_something_else() # my_val continues to be a valid value
Because this syntax is valid only in Python 3.8 and higher, you should use it only in new projects that are guaranteed to use these later versions of Python. But it is a handy way to reduce a bit of boilerplate that pops up often in Python code.
The breakpoint() function
Most Python developers use features in their Python IDE for debugging, such as manually inserting breakpoints in code. The
breakpoint() function, new as of Python 3.7, lets you insert a breakpoint into code manually — for instance, in a code path that is triggered only by certain conditions. This makes it easier to create interactive debugging behaviors. With
breakpoint(), you can even trigger a custom debugging function rather than the default
pdb, if you have something else you’d rather use.
Type hinting advancements
For the longest time, Python had no explicit way to specify types for variables or function parameters. Now, type hinting and the
typing module are supported directly by the Python interpreter.
Type hints in Python aren’t enforced at runtime. But when combined with linting tools, type hints shake out a great many bugs that might otherwise blow up only in production due to Python’s dynamism. Solo and team developers alike can benefit from this. What’s more, type hints can be added gradually to a codebase as needed. For instance, you might make use of type hints first around interfaces used between teams, then around internal interfaces.
In the future, we may see more aggressive use of third-party projects like
mypyc to achieve runtime speed-ups for Python through type hints. Some performance gains are possible right now, if only in a limited way. But there are still plenty of other immediate benefits for using typing that are about programmer productivity (Python’s mainstay) rather than raw performance. | https://www.infoworld.com/article/3514948/6-great-new-python-features-you-dont-want-to-miss.html | CC-MAIN-2021-25 | refinedweb | 1,018 | 61.67 |
[This post was written by Andrew Pardoe and Neil MacIntosh]
Update: The CppCoreCheck tools are now part of VS 2017:.
Back in September at CppCon 2015 Neil announced that we would be shipping new code analysis tools for C++ that would enforce some of the rules in the C++ Core Guidelines. (A video of the talk is available here: and slides are available on the ISOCpp GitHub repo.)
Earlier this week we made the first set of those code analysis tools freely available as a NuGet package that can be installed by users of Visual Studio 2015 Update 1. The package currently contains checkers for the Bounds and Type profiles. Tooling for the Lifetime profile demonstrated in Herb Sutter’s plenary talk (video at) will be made available in a future release of the code analysis tools.
The package is named “Microsoft.CppCoreCheck”, and a direct link to the package is here:.
To enable the new code analysis tools, simply install the NuGet packages to each C++ project that you want checked within Visual Studio.
The NuGet package adds an additional MSBuild targets file that gets invoked when you have code analysis enabled on your project. This targets file adds the CppCoreCheck as an additional plugin to the PREfast code analysis tool. You can enable code analysis by selecting the checkbox in the Code Analysis section of the project Properties dialog. It doesn’t matter what rule set you select–the CppCoreCheck rule sets will always run when Code Analysis is enabled.
These tools are an important first step in ensuring that users of Visual Studio can benefit from enforcement of the C++ Core Guidelines. Please note that they require Visual Studio 2015 Update 1 and will not work with earlier releases.
Here’s an example of the kind of issues that the tools will find:
void main()
{
int arr[10]; // BAD, warning 26494 will be fired
int* p = arr; // BAD, warning 26485 will be fired
[[suppress(bounds.1)]] // This attribute suppresses Bounds rule #1
{
int* q = p + 1; // BAD, warning 26481 would be fired
p = q++; // BAD, warning 26481 would be fired
}
}
There are a few interesting things to note here. First, let’s look at the full description of the warnings that will come from this code sample:
- 26494 is Type Rule 5: Always initialize an object.
- 26485 is Bounds Rule 3: No array to pointer decay.
- 26481 is Bounds Rule 1: Don’t use pointer arithmetic. Use span instead.
The first two warnings fire when you compile this code with the CppCoreCheck code analysis installed and activated. But the third warning doesn’t fire because of the attribute. The developer marked this code block to keep CppCoreCheck from detecting any violation of Bounds Rule 1. He could have marked the other statements to suppress Type Rule 5, or even suppressed the entire bounds profile by writing [[suppress(bounds)]] without including a specific rule number. The C++ Core Guidelines are there to help you write better and safer code but C++ is ultimately about providing the developer with the ability to do the right thing. In an instance where a rule or a profile shouldn’t be applied, it’s easy to suppress them directly in the code.
While the code analysis tools aren’t yet open source, distributing them on NuGet means we can update them to address any issues you might find. We also look forward to adding checkers for new profiles (such as Lifetime) as they are developed in the Guidelines. Feel free to send us mail at cppcorecheck@microsoft.com with your feedback!
The NuGet package containing our analysis tools installs a subsidiary package containing Microsoft’s implementation of the Guideline Support Library (GSL). The package is also available standalone at. This library is essential if you want to follow the Core Guidelines and replace use of constructs like a
T*+ length pair of parameters with the
span<T> type from the GSL. The GSL is open source, so if you want to take a look at the library sources, comment, or contribute, please come see us at.
Finally, the C++ Core Guidelines is an open, community-based effort, and in that spirit we would also like to take this opportunity to point people to an alternative implementation of the checks for the Bounds and Type profiles. The clang-tidy developers have already included a number of checks for these profiles in the open source clang-tidy project. You can find out more about clang-tidy and their checks for the C++ Core Guidelines here:.
We are really excited about all these first steps towards supporting enforcement of the Core Guidelines. As always, we welcome your feedback about the good and the bad with these tools and libraries so that we can keep improving on them. Let us know your thoughts at cppcorecheck@microsoft.com!

I'm not having a lot of luck at the moment..
1>test.cpp(4): error C2220: warning treated as error – no 'object' file generated
1>c1xx : fatal error C1255: PCH data for plugin 'PREfast.espX.1' has incorrect length.
Is using a precompiled header not supported with this? I just created a default console project which by default adds a precompiled header.
Yes if I disable the precompiled header it works
For the error related to PCH data: This typically happens when there’s a stale binary left somewhere in the path. Could you clean up everything under your object directory and try again? Cleaning the solution typically fixes this in most cases.
No still happens when pch is on I'm afraid.
Nice tool. Would it warn about the "void main()" in your example?
@Jonathan McDougall, congratulations. If the tool were complete, it would certainly warn about a violation of Guideline F.46: int is the return type for main() (github.com/…/CppCoreGuidelines.md)
Unfortunately, this is the first release of the tools and it is incomplete. But while declaring main to be void limits portability, I don't expect that the code sample above will be used anywhere but as an example in this blog post.
Tried using it on a very small MFC/STL application (CGridListCtrlEx-DemoApplication), and it choked on precompiled headers even after cleanup.
Disabled precompiled headers, and then it just got stuck on "Running Code Analysis for C/C++…" without ever completing (Also after cleanup).
Guess the MFC/STL-dependency is just too much non-quality, than it can handle :)
Tried to use it on a real project. Here's what it produces:
1>C:Program Files (x86)MSBuildMicrosoft.Cppv4.0V140Microsoft.CppCommon.targets(253,5): error MSB6006: "CL.exe" exited with code -1073740791.
@edl_si, @Rolf Kristensen: thanks for the bug reports. We'll look into them. If you have a repro you can share, please mail it to us. Or feel free to contact us directly so we can figure out what's going on.
I'm not having success using static analysis with shared_ptr or unique_ptr. I created a short sample project in VS2015 Update 1 as follows:
#include <memory>
using namespace std;
void main()
{
auto s = make_shared<int>(1);
auto u = make_unique<int>(2);
}
Then, when I add the CppCoreCheck NuGet package and turn on static analysis on build, I get warning C26494 on each of the two lines initializing a pointer type, even though the objects are obviously initialized.
Here is the first one:
Warning C26494 Variable 's' is uninitialized. Always initialize an object. (type.5: go.microsoft.com/…/p)
I don't get the warning if I construct other types of objects (raw pointers, arrays, vectors, user-defined structs all work), so it appears to be something specific to those smart pointer types. Could you please take a look? Thanks,
Josh
@Josh Knutson, thanks for the bug report! I'm pretty sure this one is a known issue but I'll double-check with Neil. I expect this will be fixed in the next update of the tools.
I've made a short post on reddit about the issues I'm currently having (…/cxn5jc0)
Nice and useful idea I think :). Perhaps I will try it in the future. :) .
Same here: c1xx : fatal error C1255: PCH data for plugin 'PREfast.espX.1' has incorrect length.
When turning off precompiled headers the error goes away but no warning are emitted. I actualy pasted some of your bad examples below to be sure, and still no warnings using "Microsoft All Rules" or "Microsoft Native Recommended Rules", in short, it did not work at all for me. Just wasted a hour on some pre-ALPHA build that should probably never have seen the light of day.
Same 2 issues for me as well. PCH needed to be disabled, and then it seemed to stop on the "Running Code Analysis for C/C++"… actually it did complete, but well after compilation and analysis for this 20 class project usually takes (normal analysis and compile time is ~30 seconds; this new analyzer finishes in >3 minutes and doesn't yield any warnings which is impossible :)).
Can user define and set custom rule set?
@gap: No, not yet. We intend to release an SDK but I don't have a timeline for that.
@deadpin, if you can send a repro we'd love to see it. I understand if you can't share source.
Using VS2015 Update 1:
Compiling MFC Application Project using
<PlatformToolset>v120</PlatformToolset>
with Code Analysis enabled, fails with this:
c1xxast : fatal error C1001: An internal error has occurred in the compiler.
(compiler file 'msc1ast.cpp', line 1325)
Looks like the project i tried it with makes it either crash or exit with an error (rebuild vs. build):
1>cl : Command line error D8040: error creating or communicating with child process
1>C:Program Files (x86)MSBuildMicrosoft.Cppv4.0V140Microsoft.CppCommon.targets(356,5): error MSB6006: "CL.exe" exited with code -1073740777.
There is a lot of template stuff (variadic template arguments, template template arguments) in my code …
auto openResult = ::GetLastError();
auto err = error_code(openResult, system_category()); // warning
Will result in Warning C26493 Don't use C-style casts that would perform a static_cast downcast, const_cast, or reinterpret_cast. (type.4: go.microsoft.com/…/p)
I don't understand why… at least there is no *explicit* cast.
hey guys… do you have a bug report page that i can follow ? i would like to check if the issues i am facing has already been reported…
Same problem here with precompiled header. But even after turning it off, it takes a long time (analysing?) and then crash. It's a shame I was really eager to try that. as for today 788 downloads but I'm wondering who was able to make it work on his codebase.
I'm getting this warning a lot where I don't think that I should:
warning C26495: Variable '…' is uninitialized. Always initialize a member variable. (type.6: go.microsoft.com/…/p)
This is being issued in constructors for things that have default constructors, such as std::string, std::vector, and std::shared_ptr. Since these have default constructors, the members are not uninitialized.
Another case is this, where vec is std::vector<some_struct>:
const size_t foo = !vec.empty() ? vec.back().member : constant;
Here's another one, creating a temporary object using a constructor and then calling a member function on it, or passing it to a function, results in an error about using a C-style cast:
auto result = foo(a,b,c).bar();
auto result = bar(foo(a,b,c));
warning C26493: Don't use C-style casts that would perform a static_cast downcast, const_cast, or reinterpret_cast. (type.4: go.microsoft.com/…/p)
Another place I'm getting an uninitialized member, m_sName is an std::string:
Foo(const std::string& sName = "") : m_sName(sName)
{
}
@GregM, thanks for the two reports. I forwarded them on to cppcorecheck@microsoft.com.
@sam, no bug report page yet. Sorry. But we don't mind duplicate bug reports. Dupes create an incentive for us to update the NuGet packages more frequently :)
Andrew, thanks. Should I send further reports directly there?
Were you able to get my email address to attach to the reports if there are further questions?
I have tried the code analysis on the example for the "Bounds.1 : Don't use pointer arithmetic. Use span instead." error type at github.com/…/CppCoreGuidelines.md. The errors were reported Ok. However, when implementing the example of the "good" code (using span) in that section, I got an error on the line:
int n = *a++; // OK
The error is:
binary '++': 'gsl::span<int,-1>' does not define this operator or a conversion to a type acceptable to the predefined operator
Another error is reported for the line:
gsl::span<int> q = a + 1; // OK
I won't include the message as it's long.
Is the CppCoreGuidelines example out-of-date with respect to the span class?
Tried the new version still crashing when analysing my code.
Tried some really simple test, it was OK, the error shows up with description :
Expression 'arr': No array to pointer decay. (bounds.3: go.microsoft.com/…/p)
but no way to get to the link except copy pasting and trim, not really fast … Show Error Help brings me to the page :
"Welcome to Visual Studio 2015" documentation
@GregM, yes, you can send bug reports directly to cppcorecheck@microsoft.com
@Tony Marshall, I'll enter a bug for that. Thanks!
@tbozo, we know about that limitation. We'll try to create a better experience in the future.
Can I completely suppress a file?
Most of the warnings I get are from Boost.
I'm also getting an error about pre compiled headers (even though I'm not using precompiled headers):
"C:Program Files (x86)MSBuildMicrosoft.Cppv4.0V140Microsoft.CppCommon.targets(356,5): error MSB6006: "CL.exe" exited with code -1073740791."
It also seems to hang or take a long time before it errors (about 10x compile time even when set to "Minimal Rules").
@dvirtz, you can try setting the CAExcludePath environment variable to %INCLUDE%. It tells PREfast what directories to ignore.
@Andrew Pardoe
Sorry, but I'm not sure how to do that.
I tried setting CAExcludePath to the boost root directory as well as "'%INCLUDE%" (without the quotation marks) but I still get warnings on boost code.
dvirtz, that should have worked. PREfast is supposed to ignore any directory in that path. I’d need more details to debug it, sorry.
Looking at this again, is the boost *root* directory sufficient? You probably have to exclude the exact directory that contains the header that is giving you the warning. Boost’s root directory likely isn’t sufficient.
Only ever get
error : This project references NuGet package(s) that are missing on this computer. Use NuGet Package Restore to download them. For more information, see. The missing file is packages\Microsoft.Gsl.0.0.1.0\build\native\Microsoft.Gsl.targets.
when trying to use this. Will rather wait till this thing gets more mature.
@abergmeier, I’m not sure why this is happening. I’m pretty sure it’s a NuGet issue on your machine, not the packages themselves. That said, the CppCoreCheck package has a dependency on the GSL package. You can try to install Microsoft.GSL manually and see if it resolves the problem.
Otherwise, there will be an update of these packages for Update 2. The checkers have a lot of fixes with regards to stability. Maybe that will work better?
i am trying to use copy function where span is the destination

Sorry, there was a newline in the code, which messed my previous message. Reiterating the message, i am trying to use std::copy function where destination is span. But i am getting warning related to _Unchecked_iterators. Here is my code:
int main()
{
vector v{1, 2, 3, 4, 5};

auto sp = as_span(&a[12], 10);
copy(v.begin(), v.end(), sp.begin());
}
Am i doing anything wrong ?
NuGet huh? Nope, gonna have to pass until that’s not required. Nuget is the gateway to pain and build failures – will never be used in our projects.
That’s an interesting opinion, zazzles. NuGet is just a package manager. It might not be the perfect solution, but it works pretty well for this project.
Luckily for you, NuGet isn’t necessary here. NuGet packages are just zip files with a little metadata. You can download the zip file and install the checkers yourself without having to let that package manager muck with your solution files.
Static analysis in Visual Studio is great, but not enough. I suggest taking a look at the PVS-Studio analyzer. Here is an example of an Microsoft PowerShell open-source project analysis: | https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/vcblog/2015/12/03/c-core-guidelines-checkers-available-for-vs-2015-update-1/ | CC-MAIN-2018-05 | refinedweb | 2,935 | 65.01 |
Hey all! First time using Gitter and my first time posting here...
I seem to remember a way to make a self-contained Lua environment, plus all required rocks, in a development directory. That way, testing and debugging is happening in an isolated environment.
I saw hererocks, but I don't think that's what I used. I thought it was some magic trick that I could perform using luarocks. Did I imagine that or is that a feature that I'm failing to find documentation for?
rockspecfor this, or just have a file listing the rocks they need
rockspecappropriate for this use?
luarocks install mobdebug --localhowever upon inspection it appears any rock I install is for lua5.1 and not what I wish to use lua 5.4 after some diging on the wiki for luarocks there appears to be an option
--lua-version=5.4to spesify which version to use as i can verify lua 5.4.2 is installed on my system but none of the installed rocks exist, instead they appear to install to
$HOME/.luarocks/share/lua/5.1my question is how can I force the use of 5.4, do I need to download the tarball for the latest luarocks and sudo make config install that? I would prefer not to do anything that the apt package manager in debian cannot track
sudo apt install liblua5.4-dev lua5.4gives it to me at
/usr/include/lua4.5/lua.h, though the old 2.4.2 version of luarocks seemed problematic still in installing the correct rock versions, so I uninstalled that and did a manual install of luarocks 3.5.0 which the
./configscript seemed to agree with, it found the lua.h along with the binary and other dependancies. I did the system wide
sudo make installbut now when I attempt a
luarocks --lua-version=5.4 --local install mobdebugI get
Error: Failed finding Lua header files. You may need to install them or configure LUA_INCDIR.so it looks like my next step is configuring luarocks, not sure why its not finding the headers when the configure srcipt had no problems
@hishamhmin here and he can re-parent it for you.
luarocks install httpfails because it can't find
openssl/crypto.h. I'm on macOS, and I installed

luarocksconfig options:
external_deps_dirs,
external_deps_patterns,
external_deps_subdirs,
runtime_external_deps_patterns, etc. but I don't know what values to set to match Homebrew's installation tree (e.g.
/usr/local/Cellar/openssl@1.1/1.1.1i/include/openssl/crypto.h). I find it tricky due to the version-numbers in the paths… Is there a tried and tested way to configure luarocks and/or homebrew so that they luarocks can automatically resolve the dependencies?
luarocks packed my module, run
luarocks-admin make-manifestand uploaded the files to a web server.

Tutorial
Using the Gatsby Link Component to Navigate Between.
Now that we’ve been over the basics of working with Gatsby to build a static website, let’s start exploring some of its internals. For this post, I’ll cover the Gatsby Link component, which wraps the underlining Link component of Reach Router, which Gatsby uses internally for routing.
The Link component is used to navigate between internal pages of a Gatsby site instead of using regular anchor (
a) tags. The benefits of using Link instead of a regular anchor are the following:
- Gatsby will intelligently prerender the linked-to content
- State can be passed to the linked-to page
- Custom styling or a custom class can be added to links when the active page corresponds with the link.
- This is a bit more of an advanced use case, but the browser’s history object can be controlled when using the
Linkcomponent.
Using <Link />
Using the link component is simple, just import it and use it with at least the
to prop, which should point to a relative path on the site:
import React from 'react'; import { Link } from 'gatsby'; const AuthorCard = ({ author }) => { return ( <div> <img src={author.avatar.children[0].fixed.src} alt={author.name} /> <p> <Link to={`/author/${author.id}/`}>More posts</Link> </p> </div> ); }; export default AuthorCard;
You can also pass in any prop that you’d normally use on an anchor tag. For example, let’s add a
title to our link:
<Link to={`/author/${author.id}/`} title={`View all posts by ${author.name}`} > More posts </Link>
When linking to an external domain or to a different non-Gatsby site on the same domain, use regular anchor tags.
Active Page
You can style links on the active page differently using either a style object or a class name. For a style object, use the
activeStyle prop:
<Link to={`/about/`} activeStyle={{ textDecoration: "salmon double underline" }} > About Us </Link>
And to use a class name instead, specify an
activeClassName prop:
<Link to={`/about/`} About Us </Link>
Linking to the Homepage
To point to the homepage, just use
/ as the value for the
to prop:
<Link to="/">Go home</Link>
Passing-in State
The
Link component also accepts a
state prop, and the receiving page will have access to what’s passed into that prop via the
location prop, at
location.state:
<Link to="/" state={{returningVisitor: true}}> Go home </Link>
Linking Programmatically with
navigate
When you need to use the functionality of the
Link component, but have to do so programmatically outside of JSX markup, you can use the
navigate helper function:
import React from 'react'; import { navigate } from 'gatsby'; handleSubmit = e => { e.preventDefault(); const form = e.target; // ...do stuff here to submit the form data // (e.g.: using the fetch API) // Then navigate to the path that corresponds to the form's // action attribute navigate(form.getAttribute('action'); };
navigate takes an optional 2nd argument, which should be an object where you can specify
state to pass-in and/or if the browser history should be replaced:
navigate(form.getAttribute('action', { state: { message: 'Thanks a bunch!' }, replace: true });
withPrefix &
pathPrefix
If your production site is hosted in a sub-directory, you’ll want to set a value for pathPrefix inside the site’s
gatsby-config.js file. This way, Gatsby will correctly construct the URLs to link to behind the scenes and things will just work both locally when developing and in production.
You can also make use of the
withPrefix helper method to add the site’s prefix manually. This can be helpful where absolute paths are needed:
import React from 'react'; import Helmet from 'react-helmet'; import { withPrefix } from 'gatsby'; const Index = props => { return ( <> <Helmet> <link rel="icon" sizes="32x32" href={withPrefix('favicon-32x32.png')} /> <link rel="icon" sizes="192x192" href={withPrefix('favicon-192x192.png')} /> {/* More stuff here... */} </Helmet> <div className={props.className}> {props.children} </div> </> ); }; export default Index;
🔗 Now you can go ahead and start linking to all the things! For a more in-depth look at Gatsby’s

I made a character in Blender with 2 animations(idle and walk). I imported the whole character into unity as a .fbx and saw this:
First of all what is the "Default Take"? I never made a animation called that. Then I read that I am suppose to list my animations under the FBX menu with a start and end frame(from here). I did that then it messed every thing up!! Now it looks like this:
Theres three of each animation now instead of one and the "Default Take" is gone. What am I doing wrong here? There arnt any good sources for doing this so can someone please help me out? I just don't understand.
I'v never done this before so any help is appreciated thanks.

I had similar issue:.
What I did to solve it: first I deleted everything
Then I made two separate animation. idle and walk(in blender)
I dragged the first object (with the animation idle) to the scene while that object is heighlited in the hierarchy in the inspector under animation I changed size to 2
in element0 I dragged the idle in element1 i dragged the walk
the cause of your issue is since you already have animations named coming from blender (idle and walk) when you try to make more intimation by breaking the frames - it makes another set of animation so you will have double
------------short version------------------------
-- create two files: dude_idle >>>> make idle animation on it
dude_walk >> make walk animation on it
import both to unity
drag dude_idle to the scene
while dude_idle is heighlighted in the hierarchy go :
to inspector under animation change size to 2
drag the animation from the blend file in the project:
hope thats helps fellow blender.

Now I am trying to create my program and am #1 getting an error when I try to update my array after each pass. It is telling me: Cannot find symbol...symbol constructor Location(java.lang.String,Double,Double). Confused on that one.
Also, I am working on the equation right now to figure the distance based on lat and lon between cities, 1 by 1. Later I have to try to make it a recursive search and get the total for all 5 stopping at each one but I wanted to get it working on figuring 1-2, 2-3, 3-4...and so on first. (practice!)
So here is my code for the main part:
public class Map { public static void main(String[] args){ Location[] place = new Location[5]; boolean toContinue = true; String input = ""; int menuItem = 0; int counter = 0; while(toContinue){ input = JOptionPane.showInputDialog(null, "Please select " + "from the following options:\n 1) Enter City Data\n " + "2) View Report" + "3) Exit"); menuItem = Integer.parseInt(input); switch(menuItem){ case 1: //getting user input String city = JOptionPane.showInputDialog(null, "Enter " + "city name: "); double lat = Double.parseDouble(JOptionPane.showInputDialog (null, "Enter Latitude of City: ")); double lon = Double.parseDouble(JOptionPane.showInputDialog (null,"Enter Longitude of City: ")); place[counter++] = new Location(city, lat, lon); break; case 2: //display results int distance; for(int i = 0; i < counter; ++i) distance = Math.sqrt(Math.pow(place[i].lat - place [i].lat,2) + place[i].lon - place[i].lon,2)); } } } }
p.s. I know the math equation is wrong...still trying to figure out how to feed my array into that. Also already changed distance to a double..noticed that just now.

So, Mix has started. I must say I’m very jealous. I even found myself looking enviously at a picture of the contents of the goody bag earlier....I must get a life.
Anyway... Work has started on our MVP migration. Even I was struggling to keep a smile on my face. It’s not the passive view per se that’s caused me pain today, it’s the unit and spec tests that go alongside it. As we’re not doing the whole enterprise app straight away, there’s still lots left structured the ‘old way’. So much pain was caused trying to get the ‘new’ and the ‘old’ to sit alongside easily.
The way we have decided to do it, is to start with the new pages first. Any new screens will use passive view. We will ‘upgrade’ the others as we go. With the addition of a new project to our solution, I set-to with enthusiasm. I’m still really nervous that the folder structure we’ve added in there won’t be extendable easily and a couple of years down the line our ‘successors’ will be moaning that it wasn’t properly thought through. But it really was, I promise. It’s just really difficult to predict the future. And when you’ve not got the experience of doing this with another enterprise app before you don’t even have hindsight to fall back on.
If anyone has a suggestion for a good set of folder names to structure the mvp project, I’d really appreciate that. Eg ‘presenters’, ‘views’, ‘models’ sub folders; ‘interfaces’, etc etc. I know it sounds really lame to be worrying about folder names in the grand scheme of things. But when it comes down to it, the folder structure is the first thing new developers to the application will see, and in an enterprise app making things as transparent as possible is key. It's not always about starting with the complicated things first!
On a lighter note, I have a bit of geek rivalry going on between me and a friend and a couple of people we know. Infact it was mentioned today that the ‘geek-gauntlet’ has been thrown down. :-) So what I want to know is how do you measure ‘geekness’, how can we know when we’ve won (as I’m sure we will). Do any of you out there think you are more geek than anyone else you know, and if so how have you achieved it? Lol. Any comments gratefully received. ;-)
The main factor by which I measure geekness is the quirky nature of the technology you use. For example, I bought the Linux kit for the Playstation 2. That is terribly geeky because most people don't run Linux on their game consoles. I also run a mainframe emulator, BABY/400, on Windows to study RPG II programming. That is uber geeky. You score extra points for anything involving mainframes.
...mainframes... thanks for that one, will note it down. ;-)
Hmm... Do TI-99's and cassette tapes count? Sorry no punch card experience.
Anyways, folder names should reflect how you think about your application. Consequently you can (and should) change them as your perspective shifts.
Personally I avoid catchall names like "Interfaces". What kinds of interfaces are in there? How are they related? So I'll choose names like "Model", "Core", "Framework", or "Runtime" to group infrastructure concerns. Then I'll break them further down into modules. "Core.Logging", "Core.Collections", etc...
If we're just talking about interfaces for Presenters or Views, then why not just colocate them with their concrete implementations? Client code can just promise to use the IoC to resolve the dependency even though the implementation is plainly accessible. This approach works quite well and enables you to focus on more important divisions of labour.
Separation by tier can be useful but it also creates its own problems. If you have a folder with 100 views in it and another one with 100 presenters then maintaining the parallel structure can become tedious.
At that point you might choose to decompose by functional unit (module) and then by tier. So Registration/Views/MyView.cs instead of Views/Registration/MyView.cs. YMMV.
At a certain point the decomposition will transcend folders within a project and you will consider using multiple projects. For example, you could end up with a project consisting only of interfaces. Arguments in favour may include enforcing separation of concerns across horizontal tiers. Arguments against may talk about separation of concerns across vertical applications.
Anyways, just see what works.
Jeff, thanks so much for taking the time to share that. It's really helped!!
Kirsty
So how is it going?
You should post more often.
I've been looking forward to more infectious enthusiasm... ;-)
It sounds like you are hitting similar anxiety that I experienced when I just started with MVP. Just to note, the software design is an iterative process. I stopped worrying about what happens years from now but just concentrate on how to create a maintainable code and structure right now based on current requirements. Evolving requirements always a have a knack to throw a curve ball in whatever design you have just finished.
On the folder naming, Jeff has a good starting point to think of layers and avoid ambiguous irrelevant names.
I come from java world, so I prefer to keep the namespaces and folder structures closely matched up, even between the projects.
For Huber geekiness, I have not had those contests since college. Now, I think a tougher contest is to show well-roundedness in other non-technical areas in life. | http://weblogs.asp.net/kirstybusfield/archive/2008/03/05/mvp-one-step-forward-1-billion-left-to-go.aspx | crawl-003 | refinedweb | 949 | 74.79 |
Service Bus pricing
Keep apps and devices connected across private and public clouds
- No upfront cost
- No termination fees
- Pay only for what you need
Azure Service Bus is a messaging infrastructure that sits between applications allowing them to exchange messages for improved scale and resiliency...
The relay counts each message sent to the relay, and each message sent by the relay, as billable. A billable message is a data frame of at most 64 KB. If a message exceeds 64 KB, such as an HTTP reply that returns an image, each further 64 KB counts as an additional billable message. For a normal relayed service that implements a request/response scheme, the request first travels to the relay, then to the service, and the reply traverses the same path. That amounts to at least four billable messages. For a multicast service that has 4 listeners, the message sent to the relay counts as 1 message, and the 4 messages sent to the listeners also each count as a message, resulting in a total of 5 messages. subscription service endpoints. This includes management, send/receive, and session state operations.'s closed only when the last listener disconnects from its address. Therefore, for billing purposes a relay is considered "open" from the time the first relay listener connects, to the time the last relay listener disconnects from the Service Bus address of that relay..
Yes, they do. There are no connection charges for sending events using HTTP, regardless of the number of sending systems or and, for example, to achieve more efficient event streaming, or enable bi-directional communication with thousands or..
A messaging unit is a set of dedicated resources exclusively reserved for premium namespaces. This resource set can deliver a consistent and repeatable performance of messaging workloads. Each premium namespace can have 1, 2, or 4 messaging units and the resource allocation grows linearly—2 messaging units will consist of twice as many resources allocated as 1 messaging unit..

quick hack to enable transactional fixtures with akephalos driver
hiroshi3110
Mar 14, 2011 4:05 AM
Posted in group:
Capybara
To turn on transactional fixtures with akephalos driver, I wrote a
monkey patch.
ActiveRecord::ConnectionAdapters::ConnectionPool.class_eval do
def current_connection_id
# Thread.current.object_id
Thread.main.object_id
end
end
This could be placed in spec_helper.rb.
I don't think it is a safe and correct way, but someone may be
interested in the idea.
To get right, it will be needed a synchronous version of server,
handling http requests like handling user inputs with gets(3).
I also wrote a blog post about this:

PyHCUP 0.1.6.2.1dev
Python tools for working with data from the Healthcare Cost and Utilization Program ().
PyHCUP is a Python library for parsing and importing data obtained from the United States Healthcare Cost and Utilization Program ().
About
Data from HCUP come as a text file, with each column a specific width. However, the widths of these columns, and their names, are elsewhere. HCUP provide this meta data as either SAS or SPSS data loading programs.
PyHCUP is built to extract meta data from the SAS loading programs, then use that meta data to parse the actual data in the fixed-width text files. You’ll still need to acquire the actual data through HCUP.
A more verbose set of instructions is available in a series of posts on the author’s blog at.
Example Usage
Load a datafile/loadfile combination.
import pyhcup # specify where your data and loadfiles live datafile = 'D:\\Users\\hcup\\sid\\NY_SID_2009_CORE.asc' loadfile = 'D:\\Users\\hcup\\sid\\sasload\\NY_SID_2009_CORE.sas' # pull basic meta from SAS loadfile meta_df = pyhcup.meta_from_sas(loadfile) # use meta knowledge to parse datafile into a pandas DataFrame df = pyhcup.read(datafile, meta_df) # that's it. use df from here.
Deal with very large files that cannot be held in memory in two ways.
- To import a subset of rows, such as for preliminary work or troubleshooting, specify nrows to read and/or skiprows to skip using sas.df_from_sas().
# optionally specify nrows and/or skiprows to handle larger files df = pyhcup.read(datafile, meta_df, nrows=500000, skiprows=1000000)
- To iterate through chunks of rows, such as for importing into a database, first use the metadata to build lists of column names and widths. Next, pass a chunksize to the read() function above to create a generator yielding manageable-sized chunks.
chunk_size = 500000 reader = pyhcup.read(datafile, meta_df, chunksize=chunk_size) for df in reader: # do your business # such as replacing sentinel values (below) # or inserting into a database with another Python library
Whether you are pulling in all records or just a chunk of records, you can also replace all those pesky missing/invalid data placeholders from HCUP (this is less useful for generically parsing missing values for non-HCUP files).
# fyi, this bulldozes through all values in all columns with no per-column control replaced = pyhcup.replace_sentinels(df)
Shortcut to loadfiles (meta data)
The SAS loading program files provided by HCUP for the State Inpatient Database (SID), State Ambulatory Surgery Database (SASD), and State Emergency Department Database (SEDD) are bundled in this package for easy access. You can retrieve the meta data for these directly, without having to specify a loadfile path as described above.
Acquire meta in this way using the get_meta() function. You must pass a state abbreviation as the first argument and a year as the second arugment, like so.
meta_df = pyhcup.get_meta('NY', 2009)
By default, get_meta() acquires SID CORE data. Other meta can be acquired with the optional keyword arguments datafile (‘SID’, ‘SEDD’, or ‘SASD’) and category (‘CORE’, ‘CHGS’, ‘SEVERITY’, ‘DX_PR_GRPS’, or ‘AHAL’).
# California emergency department charges meta for 2010 ca_2010_emergency_charges_meta = pyhcup.get_meta('CA', 2010, datafile='SEDD', category='CHGS') # Arizona outpatient surgery DRG records meta for 2004 az_2004_surg_groups_meta = pyhcup.get_meta('AZ', 2004, datafile='SASD', category='DX_PR_GRPS' # etc.

If you map some java classes to custom jcr node types, you have to register
those types into your repository with CND or XML JCR type def.
OCM Annotations (or the OCM xml mapping file) are just there to describe how
to map your java classes into JCR node types. This is not possible to load
new JCR node types or namespace with the OCM annotations (or the OCM xml
mapping file).
Let me know if you need more info.

is it possible to do something like this in php? I want to have a namespace in a member variable and just always be able to call every static method of that class like I'm doing below.
Of course my code doesn't work, but I'm just wondering if that is possible at all and that I'm close to a solution, or if that's completely out of the question and must always use the syntax:
\Stripe\Stripe::setApiKey(..);
Similar question for clarifications
NOTE: I cannot modify the Stripe class, it's important it stays untouched for when future devs must update the Stripe API
Simplified code:
class StripeLib { var $stripe; public function __construct() { // Put the namespace in a member variable $this->stripe = '\\'.Stripe.'\\'.Stripe; } } $s = new StripeLib(); // Call the static setApiKey method of the Stripe class in the Stripe namespace $s->stripe::setApiKey(STRIPE_PRIVATE_KEY); | http://www.developersite.org/1002-194-php | CC-MAIN-2018-22 | refinedweb | 148 | 60.99 |

Virtual Machine: Bochs-2.4.5
I want to learn some details about linux booting, so I begin writing a small boot program myself. Yesterday, I was writing a small boot program and planned to use it boot a Bochs virtual machine. The boot program is written in assembly language and compiled with nasm.I use bxiamge.exe in Bochs and create an floppy image called boot.img and configure the Bochs virtual host to boot from this floppy image. My question is how to write the compiled boot.bin program into the floppy image(boot.img)?

Create text files and send these to other apps?!
Do you have an account on Dropbox? Get Console's Script Manager allows you to upload results directly to Dropbox which might be a slicker alternative to communicating with Pythonista than the iOS clipboard. Either Dropbox or the clipboard could be made to work.
Can you provide a URL to the Data Explorer product? Is it the iOS app at the URLs below? If not, what machine is it running on? There is confusion here because IBM, Google, Microsoft, Informatica, etc. all have different products that they call Data Explorer. <br />
If Data Explorer is an iOS app, you can do what you want in Editorial, because it has a function console.quicklook which displays text and lets you 'open in' another app. Pythonista lacks console.quicklook. I made an editorial workflow for this:
@peterh
console.quicklookis available in Pythonista (since 1.4), I just forgot to update the documentation.
Thanks for your replies!
To CCC:
I do have an account on DropBox, so that might be a solution. The reason I am hesitant is that it isn't officially supported by IT.
You correctly found the data analytics software, it is the first link you provided. It is an iOS app.
Okay, so console.quicklook pointing to a txt file could let me open in the iOS analytics app.
I wouldn't have to transfer the data if Pythonista had numpy (one iOS developer has managed this, the pynum app) and matplotlib (no one has done this), but that is a lot to ask. I would say though, that Pythonista has a beautiful interface, and if it could implement those modules to allow scientific data analysis, a lot of people would be happy (and as an in-app purchase, you could go away w/ lots of $ to support even more development :) ).
Cheers!
- If there is text on the clipboard then write it into a file.
- quicklook() that file to allow the user to "Open In" their second favorite iOS app...
import clipboard, console, os, sys clipboard_text = clipboard.get() if not clipboard_text: sys.exit('No text on the clipboard') out_file_name = sys.argv[0].rstrip('.py') + '_data.txt' with open(out_file_name, 'w') as out_file: out_file.write(clipboard_text) msg = ' Tap "send" icon at right of titlebar to "Open In" another app. ' console.hud_alert(msg, 'success', 3) console.quicklook(out_file_name) os.remove(out_file_name) # delete out_file as recommended by peterh below
For sending numeric data to Data Explorer, you might want to write a .csv file instead of a .txt file.
Note: after calling
console.quicklookabove, delete the txt file. Otherwise it stays there (and you probably won't realise)
ccc, thank you! It works perfectly, and was very useful for me to go through as I start Python.
I wanted to also note for anyone that happens to come across this discussion through a search that another App I have found useful for data plotting that works better than Data Explorer currently is 'Graphical' by Vernier. If you use ccc's code to generate a csv instead of a text file, you can open in Vernier and plot it quite easily and select regions of the plot to do a lot of analysis. (now I just have to play with exactly how Vernier wants the data formatted to convert my serial port data to something workable).
Also the Graphical app has some fun applications where you can use the built in iPad sensors to record acceleration for example. I recorded my flight takeoff discretely to see how fast the plane was accelerating. :) :)
I have a similar problem. I am manipulating data files on my ipad and I need to email those files to other people. How can I attach data files to an email with pythonista? has good examples and a search on will have a bunch more.

District ponders rezoning Proposal keeps LHS students at home. CRUSTY LoFTIS cloftis@chronicleonline.com Chronicle All students currently attending classes at Lecanto High School should be allowed to remain at their school despite school zone changes, recom- mends the high school rezoning com- mittee. The Citrus County School District is looking to change boundaries to relieve overcrowding at Lecanto High School. LHS currently serves more than 1,740 students, which is about 100 more than capacity even with six portable class- rooms. Since the rezoning committee held two community meetings for public input about the proposals, the areas to be rezoned have not changed. Officers arrest youth on battery charge CRisTY LOFTns cloftis@chronicleonline.com Chronicle A 12-year-old boy from Lecanto was arrested on a felony sexual battery charge Thursday afternoon. ,The, Chronicle is withhold- ing the name of the boy because of his age. According to a Citrus County Sheriff's Office arrest report, a 7-year-old boy told detectives he and the 12-year-old were playing a game called "gross off" when the older boy pulled down their pants and under- wear and held him down while simulating a sex act in the liv- ing room of a Lecanto home. The younger boy said the 12- year-old never penetrated him, and the older boy's 6-year- old sister was in the room when the incident happened, according to the report. The 7-year-old's mother said she walked into the room and found the boys naked simulat- ing a sex act, according to the report The 12-year-old said the younger boy took off his own clothes. Sheriff's spokeswoman Gail Tierney said detectives decid- ed when arresting the boy he would benefit from rehabilita- tion and counseling from the Department of Juvenile Justice, which now has custody of the boy. IW The general areas under considera- tion are sections of southwest Pine Ridge, west of Black Diamond Golf Course and an area north of Homosassa Trail. If rezoned, students in these areas would attend Crystal River High School in the 2006-07 school year. The district also is considering rezon- ing some areas south of Norvell Bryant Highway, east of Annapolis Avenue. Those students would attend Citrus High School. All new residents and incoming ninth-graders would attend their newly zoned school. The rezoning committee originally planned to allow. only students who would be juniors and seniors at LHS to remain at the school hopefully bring- ing down the school's population by about 150. But parents and students emotionally pleaded with the commit- tee to let all current students at Lecanto stay there. Director of Student Services Renna Jablonskis said they are recommending that the school board allow currently enrolled students at the school with the understanding that parents would transport their children to the nearest bus stop within Lecanto's school zone or provide their own transportation. While the change will appease some parents and students, it will not have as large of an impact on Lecanto's over- crowding. "It definitely will not have the desired effect for Lecanto High School," Jablonskis said. "We know that they're still going to be overcrowded." The school board will have it's first public hearing on the proposed high school zone changes at 4 p.m. Tuesday, Jan. 24, with a final vote in February. If the board votes to adopt the recom- mendations, LHS students in the rezoned areas must complete a zone waiver form that must be returned by March 1. The March deadline will allow schools to get a better idea of how many children they'll be serving next year and plan accordingly, Jablonskis said. But high schools aren't the only ones who will see zone changes for the 2005- 06 school year. The zoning committee is working to alleviate overcrowding at Citrus Springs Middle School by changing zone lines. The committee has not yet decided on proposed areas to be rezoned, but when they do parents will be notified and be given a chance to give input at a community meeting tentatively sched- uled for Jan. 19. Earlier this year, Forest Ridge Elementary, Citrus Springs Elementary and Crystal River Primary schools' zones were changed to redistribute the growing student populations. Mike Mullen, director of support services and rezoning committee mem- ber, said the elementary school lines would be looked at again this year, but he does not expect major changes until Citrus Springs' new elementary school is built.

Changes reduce impact on wetlands RealtiCorp modifies plan forproperty JIM HUNTER jhunter@chronicleonline.com Chronicle A county development official said after a meeting with RealtiCorp representa- tives this week that he now expects to see the company submit proposals for land use. changes for development of its prop- erty just south of Crystal River. Citrus County Development Services Director Gary Maidhof said he met with the company, which presented changes to -r & a 'tmIb its plan for 212 acres at the corner of Venable Street and U.S. 19. County officials had indicated a number of concerns with the company's original plans, including the impact on wetlands deemed connected to the coast, which had stymied the company from seeking county approval of a development plan. Maidhof said the modifications to the general plan for the property left out dis- turbance of the connected wetlands on the west side of the property where commer- cial development has been planned. The adjustments included a town center in the residential area on the east side of the property and an access road from Venable through the property to U.S. 19 across from Ozello Road, though that proposal a I* would be contingent on negotiations with the adjoining property owner to the south, Maidhof said the company told him. That adjustment would better conform to the county's access management for U.S. 19, Maidhof said. Maidhof said he was very pleased with the adjustments, but noted that he saw only a conceptual plan with no numbers or exact reductions of impact, and staff would have to see the actual plan. RealtiCorp is a real estate holding com- pany that markets the property and sells to other interests that actually develop the property. Maidhof said the comprehensive plan land use amendment process can take eight months before final approval by the county commission. .3 ~ ~"' b S * 1I 4,0 Coun Tritt, Adkins concert tickets still available General admission tickets are still available for Saturday's "Country Rocks the Canyon" concert featuring music stars Travis Tritt and Trace Adkins.

Most of the manatees, 111 adults and 11 calves, were counted in Kings Bay. The survey route stretched from the Cross Florida Barge Canal, near Inglis, south to the Homosassa River. Included along this route are the Crystal River, Kings Bay, Salt River and the Homosassa River, which includes the Blue Waters. Teenager arrested on battery charges A 16-year-old Inverness boy was arrested on felony battery charges Thursday aftemoon. A Renaissance Center teacher was dismissing students from classes Wednesday based on how well they behaved, according to a Citrus County Sheriff's Office arrest report. According to the report, the teacher told the teenager to remain seated, but he said the teacher couldn't "play favorites" and shoved the teacher on the shoulders on the way out of the classroom. The Chronicle is withholding the name of the boy because of his age. The boy told a deputy that he only bumped the teacher with his chest and he never intended to push the teacher, according to the report. The boy was initially taken to Citrus County Detention Facility, and now is in the custody of the Department of Juvenile Justice.

County Commissioner Jim Fowler, once the manager of Waste Management in Citrus County, said one of the prob- lems with the current garbage collection system is that some property owners pay the annu- al $25 landfill property assess- ment, even though no haulers will serve them. He thinks Moessinger may be in that cat- egory. The landfill fee doesn't pay for garbage pickup. The money is used to operate the landfill. Fowler said mandatory, or universal garbage, would solve Moessinger's problem. He said everyone in the county would be served by a franchised garbage hauler He said the franchised haulers would be responsible for serving the cus- tomers in their district, and the routes would be served well. "Eighty percent of the peo- ple living in Florida have uni- versal garbage service, and they don't have to deal with a garbage hauler That's handled by government, and it's less expensive and more efficient You have one hauler going down a street instead of multi- ple haulers," Fowler said.

The proposed plat will then be placed on the county commis- sion's consent agenda for approval, according to Coutu. Commissioners often place dozens of routine business items on the consent agenda. The consent agenda is approved as a package with one motion, and generally with- out discussion by the board.

Circuit Judge Ric Howard listened, along with a filled courtroom of quiet spectators, as the accounts of the rape, and the affects it left on those con- cerned, were read aloud in court Describing details about the case, Assistant State Attorney Rich Buxman said Byron apparently hid in the house for 15 to 16 hours, wait- ing for the woman to arrive. That time frame was based on records of phone calls Byron made from the home. He waited until the woman put her daughter to sleep and went to bed herself before he emerged from the closet, Buxman said. Byron raped the -':- SOLATUBE.

According to previous evi- dence in the case, a fingerprint found at the scene was linked to Byron, who was found the next day hiding in his home under a bed. He confessed to the rape, blaming it on an uncontrollable sex addiction. The woman later identified him as her attacker, according to court records. Byron had been serving pro- bation during the assault for a burglary conviction; he agreed to a plea deal and was sen- tenced Oct. 24 to five years in prison for that crime. Buxman indicated Thursday there were four other felony convictions within the past five years; and Howard acknowledged the ele- ments were proven to sentence him as a habitual offender. By law, Byron will have to register his address with law enforcement upon his release from prison. The judge also advised Byron that under the Jimmy Ryce Act, he could be involun- tarily committed for sex offender treatment after his prison term expires. The Jimmy Ryce Act was passed in 1999 and is named for a South Florida boy who was raped and murdered in 1995 by a convict- ed sex offender. The Ryce Act allows for the state to petition for his commitment if, upon release, it is believed that he still poses a risk to the commu- nity.

It is now the tradition in many American households to read the poem .every Christmas Eve. The line that is most striking is, "The children were nestled all snug in their beds, while visions of sugarplums danced in their heads." For many children this holiday season, their dreams are much simpler. Dreams of sugarplums are eclipsed by dreams of just one new toy, a hot meal or even a clean bed to sleep in.

SCUB is not the only agency doing great things this holiday season. The Family Resource Center's Santa Workshop in Hernando is abuzz with activity. Last year, nearly 1,800 children in our a 1 Is op county had gifts to open through the efforts of the Family Resource Center. Currently, there are 1,576 children in the system to receive help from the resource center and that num- ber will grow over the next few days. Most of these children have sponsors to purchase their gifts and necessities, but that is only one piece of the puzzle. The gifts still need to be wrapped and distributed. Volunteers will work day and night to ensure that these children do not go without this year. To support this effort, call the Family Resource Center at 344-1001.

O l LETTERS to the Check the tanks A community and river are in the southwest part of the county. I don't know how many people live there a few hundred but it is a "land that commissioners forgot." Oh, the county has a boat ramp there, but there are a couple of things wrong: the drinking water and the river pollution. This river is an attraction bringing fishermen, boaters and sightseers to the county, but there are not enough people to influence the voting at elec- tion time, so commissioners don't worry much about Chassahowitzka. The projected price per home seems to be around $14,000 yes, $14,000! Roll that around in your head for a few seconds. Incredible! After reading the article Nov. 30 and Mickey Newberger's acute obser- vations, I decided to add a little of my wit to the situation. I was a resident of Chassahowitzka for 30 years. I had a couple of homes down there. Well water drinking water was no problem for years. Then Bill Brittle moved in, had the canals dug and sold lots. Then, the people came in and pollution started. Of course, logic will tell you that septic tanks being holes in the ground with rocks in them and inadequate, non-functional drainfields pose most of the problem. Now comes part of the solution. You're not going to solve it completely Send a plumber who knows his busi- ness, a list of the people and where they live. Check the tanks, check the drainfields, pull the tanks if needed, rebuild the drainfields if needed. A small Bobcat tractor would do the job. Work this situation until the plumber is satisfied then charge the owner for the work. It won't come to $14,000! When this is completed, the pollicleonlne.com. tion could drop 60 to 70 percent. You know all the rivers are polluted - Homosassa, Hall, Crystal, outlet of Rousseau, Wacasassa, Suwannee, Steinhatchee but to what percent? As to drinking water, the county can bring it over or the residents can go on as they are chlorine boiling - whatever! Mike Zoellner Lecanto Composting toilets The beautiful Chassahowitzka River in southern Citrus County needs help. A cost of $10,000 per home for central sewer shouldn't have to be done. Central sewer should not be in there, period. The Chassahowitzka area has had salt water intrusion in most wells for years and drawing groundwater to Editor flush toilets and then pumping to an inland system doesn't make sense. Sen. Nancy Argenziano is suggest- ing an upgraded septic tank system for homes that don't have a properly functioning one, and she estimated the cost at $6,000 per home. That would put the homeowner and county in "low-cost loan debt" for years. I remember talking to some Chassa- howitzka residents and county com- missioners a number of years back about composting toilets. Cost would be about $600 to $1,000 a home, and would require a small amount of learning. But it is well worth the sav- ings. You probably could get grants from SWFWMD to pay for them. They weren't inclined. "They will smell," I was told. Well, not if properly fed. "It's yucky!" I was told. Not as yucky as $10,000 a home. They are in some fine facilities, even condos in downtown Toronto. For those who can afford the state- of-the-art septic system, that's fine. The water you draw from the ground to flush will go back into the ground after being treated. A composting toilet doesn't use water, though it can be adapted to use some. Properly fed with peat moss or something similar allow it to build a high temperature in a separate chamber The high temp digests everything, and, at the end of a year's operation you have a shovel full of compost for your flower garden. No pipes in the floor, no water, no overhaul and repair. Go online and do a search for composting toilets and find pros, cons, cost, maintenance and be prepared when the governments look at your cost Hopefully, the Chassahowitzka homeowners can make the choice on their own.

That's what we as Christians celebrate in December. Why is that consid- ered a bad statement in recent months with the "big boxes"? They do not seem to mind a big profit in this month. Many retailers, as we know, can't wait for Christmas. Why are they conforming to secularism when most people believe in Jesus or God? Meaning of Christmas Education is very important and so is telling the truth. The truth is, Christmas is a (two- part) word; the first word meaning "spread," the second word meaning "to celebrate." Christmas means to spread celebration. It was used by the pagans (more than) 6,000 years ago 4,000 years before Christ was ever born. It's the truth. Now you are edu- cated. Editor's note: "Christ" is from the Greek word for "anointed." "Mas" evolved from an Old Eng- lish word meaning "festival." Pagans celebrated winter solstice using different names, such as Saturnalia or Yule.. Just not nice I'm watching Jerry Falwell live on Fox News now and he's talking about Christmas versus the holiday season and should Christmas be taken out of the holidays. I feel Christians have a right to celebrate a holiday whenever they want, but not a legal holiday with taxpayers' dollars being used for certain ceremonies, like Christmas tree lightings. Not when public em- ployees get days off from work with pay for a religious holiday. There's many other religions. That's why the Mayflower pil- grims came here: to have their own religion. I'm a white per- son born in the United States in New Jersey, raised up in the Baptist Church. But Christian people, they argue over them- selves, the different denomina- tions. They kind of boss the world what to do. They get wars started. So I'm more for calling it the holiday thing, the holiday season. Some reports say Christ wasn't even born in December. Shepherds are still in their fields or something like that ... It's time to get political- ly correct and get rid of some of the Christmas public-funded public celebrations. Let's start calling them holidays, especial- ly if you're going to let in ille- gal immigrants. If other people from other cultures come to our country, they shouldn't force them to be Christian. That's what I've got against Christianity. They kind of force people to be that. If you don't agree with them, you're wrong, a heathen going to hell. That's Is your restaurant starving for customers? Call your soles representative to make reservations 1.352.563.5592 CUIKpN ICLE not nice. Many faiths To the person who said that they wouldn't shop at stores where they weren't greeted with "Merry Christmas": It would be very ignorant and rude for the merchants and employees to assume that every customer is a Christian. We are a country of many faiths. This is why the United States broke away from England, for religious freedom. Chasing windmills Twice now someone has called in carrying on about not patronizing stores that don't have Christmas in the stores ... They used to call it "Xmas." Seventy years ago, they were using "Xmas." There's no attack on anybody using the word "Christmas" for their holi- day. I would think you wouldn't want Christ associated with all that greed, anyway. You people are out there chasing at wind- mills and fighting fights that do not exist. If you think anybody wants to take your Christmas away from you, you have some very paranoid ideas. Sick of war A certain letter writer stated that he was sick of the Bush bashing in the media. He said nothing of the dead and maim- ed Americans or the innocent people of Iraq. Evidently that doesn't make him sick. We thinking Americans Demo- crats and Republicans are sick of this useless war...A president gets treated by the way he acts. Evasive action I'm just calling about all the articles that I've been reading in the paper the past few weeks about President Bush and (Dick) Cheney. Where were these reporters two and three years ago when all this stuff was happening? Now they're coming out with all this draft evasion and war evasion by the president and the vice presi- dent. They're sending these poor, young kids over to Iraq and Afghanistan and they're getting killed and maimed while they sit behind their desk and think nothing of it. And they're not going to get out until they're out of office.

That is by far the biggest phony we have ever had in the White House. Changing minds In the '60s, Lyndon Johnson (was) president. The Democrats controlled the House and the Senate. They voted for the Tonkin Gulf reso- lution that put us in full war in Vietnam. Once the troops are there, the Democrats change their minds and then pulled their support of the troops in conflict. Now fast-forward to Iraq; the Democrats voted 100 percent to send our troops again into a war and now that the troops are there, look who's pulling their support of the troops again and not giving them the means to win the war. This is an atrocity. This is sad, but it's true. Three generals How can we promote Iraqi democracy if, as Newsweek reports, we planned on bomb- ing the head office of their major TV news channel? If the war is going so great, as (President) Bush claims, why are we now on our third chair- man of the Joints Chiefs of Staff, Gen. Peter Pace, since the invasion in March 2003? Three generals in two-and-a- half years? SOUND OFF Call the anonymous Sound Off line at 563-0579.

RISAK cjrisak@chronicleonline.com Chronicle' Hyperbole is an expected commodi- ty when dealing with someone charged with promoting something. It's like lis- tening to Muhammad Ali talk about any of his fights, which he always seemed to label "the greatest of all time." , So when listening to Brent Hall as he described the Mike and Kautia Hampton Family Fun Day, which. he organizes, it would only be natural to doubt the espoused enormity of it all. Unless you examine just what the day includes. Then it becomes clear that when Hall says, "This is one of the biggest events in Citrus County histo- ry," he needs no hype to make his point A mere examination of the cast included is proof enough. "This is a very exciting day for the community," Hall added. He's right. The Family Fun Day, which will begin at' 10 a.m. Saturday at. Lecanto High School, starts with a free carnival. A few familiar faces will be with those wandering through the crowd talking to ,,the kids. Joining Mike Hampton, a 1990 graduate of Crystal River who currently pitches for the . Atlanta Braves, will be Tim . Hudson, Jeff Fassero, Adam i LaRoche, Jeff LaRoche, Doug Johnson and Casey Weldon. All MI of them are, or were, athletes of Han renown, the first four in base- coming ball, the last two in football. Citrus The players are expected to arrive at about 11:30 a.m. An hour after that, they'll take part in a Home Run Derby, in which prize money will be earned for local youth and non-profit S. iC organizations. That's not the end of the Day, howev- er not by a long shot. Hampton, who is hosting his fourth Family Fun Day, has arranged to bring in country music Adkins for a Clash at the Canyon Concert. The concert is scheduled to begin at 3:30 p.m. V06 ,at Rock Crusher Canyon, with a fireworks display afterwards. - ;.

One thing Hall did want to make clear: This is not a fundraiser for the Mike Hampton Pitching-In Foundation. "This is a day for the community," he said, adding that local organizations "will raise the money" to help offset expenses. Other features of the weekend include the Circle of Friends, which will present four $10,000 scholarships to graduating seniors from area high schools. Also, a team of search dogs trained in the Czech Republic will be presented to the Citrus County Sheriffs Department in memory of the Jessica Marie Lunsford tragedy. The main objective of the weekend is to have a lot of fun. "They do a lot of great things for the county," said Hall. of the Hamptons. "And it's so exciting to add the con- cert." It certainly is shaping up as one of the biggest star-studded days in county history. Which leaves just a single question: What can they possibly do to top this next year? Pirates remain undefeated CR outscores Leopards 29-5 after halftime C.J. RISAK ;jrisak@chronicleonline.com Chronicle Jere DeFoor, the Crystal River girls basketball coach, insisted there was no inspira- tional halftime speech, no magic potion to get his team to turn Thursday's game against Hernando around. All that was required was a dry-erase board and a few adjustments. Sure worked well. The Pirates, humbled by 2-of-11 floor .shooting in the second quarter that allowed the Leopards to take a 21-141ead at the break, got it going big- time in the third, outscoring Hernando 18-4 on their way to a 43-26 triumph. Crystal River improved to 7-0 with the non-district win. Hernando is 3-6. "I wanted them to be more aggressive," said DeFoor of his halftime lecture. "I want- ed them to get into the offense. In the first half, I tI hough we settled for perime- ter shots. . "I thought we got better shots in the second half." Part -of the reason was a different offensive approach. "We changed (our offense) in the third quarter and ran two post players," DeFoor explained. 'And I thought we played better man-to-man defense, then switched into a zone." The effect was impressive. After allowing 9-of-25 shoot- ing by Hernando in the first half, they limited the Leopards to 1-of-18 in the second. "I thought our kids played a really good first half," said Hernando coach William Cermak. "But one of the Please see PIRATES/Page 3B BRIAN LaPETER/Chronicle Crystal River's Lacey Lyons, No. 13, tries to grab a rebound Thursday night during second quar- ter play against Hemando.

On Tuesday in Crystal River's game against North Marion, it looked like she had taken considerable strides in that pursuit After a mediocre first half (3-of-11 shooting from the floor), Lyons got into the flow of the game, connecting on 5-of-8 in the second to score 13 points to post a game-high 19.

"Thafs the proudest I've ever been," said Travis, whose team faced West Port Thursday night "They finally showed some heart." The Tigers, for all of their heart, couldn't overcome missing seven starters and dropped a 3-1 decision to the Wolf Pack at Ned Love Field. Kaila Fincher score Dunnellon's only goal. Dunnellon fell to 2-7 over- all and 1-7 in District 4A-6 while West Port improved to 3-7 and 3-4. The Wolf Pack's Mackenzie Hallahan led her team with a great all-around game from her stopper position, helping stymie the Tigers' attack while contributing a goal and an assist "We're putting some things together finally," said West Port coach Rebecca Smith. "This is a young team and we've been playing better recently." Dunnellon got a goal from Fincher off of a flick from Sarahi Cortez to cut the Wolf Pack lead to two. Cortez received the ball in front of the goal about 15 yards out and drew the entire West Port defense, including the keeper towards her.

"They put some pressure on us (in the second half), and we're not adept at handling man-to-man defense yet. And I though they did a much better job reacting to what we were trying to do (in the second half)." True, the first three minutes of the third quarter were piv- otal. In that span,, Crystal River had eliminated the Leopards' 7-point lead; the Pirates put 11 points on the CANES Continued from Page 1B at all," he said. "(Wednesday's) practice was an hour-and-a- half of defense. The offense will come, but we've got to learn to play good defense." Densmore was pleased to see his Hurricanes (3- 1)_outscore and outrebound Hernando (2-5) in each of the four quarters. Citrus never led by less than five points after the first half, which ended with an 8-0 Hurricane run during which Delguidice and Antoin Scriven each hit a 3. The lead was stretched to 12 after a Mark Xenophon 3-point play early in the third, but Hernando chipped away, final- ly closing to within 5, 48-43, on Brandon Vanderford's two free throws with 4 minutes left in the game. That's when Howard nailed a baseline 3 and Delguidice followed it up with his fifth and final 3 to close the deal. "It was a surprise," Delguidice laughed when asked about his outburst from beyond the arc. "I've been shooting bricks all season, but RISK Continued from Page 1B anticipate, Lyons was pleased. Yes, an obstacle had been cleared. An expectation of further improvement would be understandable. But that's not the way it works, a lesson Lyons learned against Hernando. She played well, tying team-' mate Meghan Hirsch for top point honors with 13, and she had a dozen rebounds. And yet, it still wasn't Lyons-esque. Her standards are set higher than others, which is what happens when you reach her status as the county's best and an NCAA Division I recruit. By her own account, Lyons was perhaps at 75 percent against Hernando. Her knee is fine, although the brace is cumbersome; however, she didn't play for six months, perhaps the longest stretch The elem she's gone - without the made Lyo game since her thing extt pre-elemen- tary school are still days.

He played at Crystal River, is except last year she was at Seven hands ai Rivers. That, too, is an adjustment. The elements that made Lyons something extra special are still evident. Her knowl- edge of the game, and how it should be played, what it takes to win, remain. She can shoot. Her passing is excep- tional. Her hands are quick. But the step is still lacking. Watch her play and one can sense her frustration: She knows what to do, but the reaction is a half-beat slow. "Defense," Lyons answered when asked what part of her game needs to improve. "I have to get better defensively to play at the next level." Worrying about the next level now she signed with Coastal Carolina last month, which relieved some of' the pressure she was laboring board before Hernando's Debra Williams scored what would be her team's only bas- ket of the second half. The Pirates, who led 10-8 after one quarter thanks to 8 Lacey Lyons' points (she fin- ished with 13), had problems in the second, scoring just 4 points as the Leopards put 13 on the board. But 18 second-half turnovers doomed Hernando, aiding Crystal River's 29-5 run. Meghan Hirsch also had 13 points for the Pirates, with Ashley Clark contributing 8. Nakita Washington's 8 points was best for the Leopards; Charleha Williams added 7. Crystal River plays at Citrus in a District 4A-6 game at 7 p.m. tonight. they fell tonight" Xenophon added 9 points and 7 rebounds for the Canes, while Scriven scored 8 off the bench. Hernando was led by Blake Vanderford's 14 points and Brandon Vanderford's 13. Citrus resumes its district schedule tonight at archrival Crystal River. The last time the two teams met- in last year's district tournament-- a miracle 3 at the buzzer from then-senior J.D. Hoglund saved a one-point win for Citrus, which went on to win the district and advance two rounds into the playoffs. But Citrus suffered heavy losses to graduation since then. This year's team bears little resemblance to last's, with only Howard and Xenophon back from the rota- tion of regular players. "We don't have much expe- rience," Densmore said. "They know it's Crystal River, but I don't know if they'll even think about it Our guys are so new, we've just got to worry about getting better every day and finding some cohesive- ness." Tonight's game tips off at 7 p.m. in the Crystal River gym- nasium. with ("It meant I could con- centrate on my game," she said) is common enough, but as she's discovering, first things need to come first. And that means getting back to her dominant level, while playing with a team loaded with talented players. Adjustments need to be made, not just by Lyons but by all the Pirates. How long will this take? It's a question without an immediate answer. Patience is the key; expecting too much too soon could ruin what is developing into a very promising season (the Pirates are 7-0). As Lyons gets stronger - "It's a matter of getting my confidence back," she said after the North Marion game, adding, "I have to get my lungs back, and I don't have that explosion yet. It's a work in progress" the Pirates should get better. Remember, this was a good team without ents that Lyons; with ns some- her, it could be something spe- a special cial.

In those final two minutes, Lyons dished a pass under- neath the basket to Setera Lockley for a basket, then nailed two jumpers in a 35- second span to make it an 18- point game. Lyons will be a difference- maker for the Pirates. As she regains her game, the scar on her knee won't disappear But it will be far less noticeable. CJ.

Modeled after the popular singing tree of First Baptist in Orlando, this tree is covered with thousands of lights and filled with the voices of 60 choir members from three area churches. "Our goal with the tree is to present a Broadway-style musical with singing and danc- ing that ultimately presents the audience with the greatest Christmas gift of all, Jesus Christ," said Chuck Cooley, music director at First Baptist Church in Crystal River. "This is First Baptist Orlando's final year to do their singing tree, so we hope in years to come that we can fill some of the void that will leave," he said. The program will be at 7 p.m. today and Saturday and at 2:30 and 7 p.m. Sunday. Tickets are no longer available. However, those interested may arrive 10 minutes prior to performance time and will be seated if seats are available. Admission is free. The singing Christmas tree will also be part of First Baptist Church's Christmas Eve servic- es at 5 and 7 p.m. Saturday, Dec. 24. For information, call 795-3367.

From Dec. 16-18, the Art Center's Hrdnalavan Children's Theatre will p resent "Christmas with Tante Hilde," written by Mac and Sharon Harris. The lead role, Tante Hilde, is played.by 82-year-old Terry Blakely. Her husband, Ralph, plays Grandpa. The couple came to Citrus County about 10 years ago. "Before that, we lived in the Pocono Mountains and did commu- nity theater there," Mrs. Blakely said. "We're regulars in community theater, at the Art League, and 'Ralph has played Playhouse 19. But roles are limited at our age." The rest of the cast ranges in age from 5 to 16, which the Blakelys said they find interesting and enjoyable. "They keep you on your toes," Mrs. Blakely said. The story revolves around Tante Hilde, the oldest of a family of sis- ters who lives in Germany. Thinking she's about to die, she spends all she has and even WALTER CARLSONChronicle The Halavan Children's Theatre presents "Christmas with Tante Hilde," with the lead role played by Terry Blakely. Ralph Blakely plays Grandpa. The rest of the cast Is comprised of children age 5 to 16. They keep you on your toes. Terry Blakely star of "Christmas with Tante Hilde," about the young members of the cast. gives away her precious cat to come to America to visit her youngest sister and her family of seven typical American children. Tante Hilde brings her German customs and traditions and a stuffed cat named Noodle that she carries with her and talks to con- stantly. At first, the children think she's weird and embarrassing. "When she grew up in Germany, she played with sticks and things that she found," said Sharon Harris, who wrote and directed the play. "So she gives the children found things, like a Kentucky Fried Chicken bucket. Of course, they make total fun of her. But as the play goes on, the kids realize that the gift is in the giving." Veteran actor Jack Kelly, 10, plays Clint, the youngest son. "I like playing Clint because he's wild and imaginative like I am, so I can be myself," he said. "Clint thinks (Tante Hilde) is crazy. 'What is she doing here?' and 'I can't believe she's related to me.' "But at the end, he learns a very important lesson to never judge people," he said. Harris said the Halavan Children's Theatre, named after the late Bill Halavan, had done "The Best Christmas Pageant Ever" for many years and some of the older kids in this year's play had been in it since they were little and were getting tired of it "We have a whole new crop of kids coming up, and it was time to do something new," Harris said. "We had 25 at auditions, and my intent was to put everyone in the play regardless of how many showed. So, I added the caroling scene, 11 kids that are carolers, with their own little play going on among themselves. And then the family has a play within the play as the youngest ones put on a pageant. "This is as much a learning expe- rience as anything," she said. Thew (war ( f Kong. ( "ap e, a nd (- aeh "Copyrighted Material Syndicated Content Available from Commercial News Providers" Brecken Baggs CRE" f Buying for teen girls: A primer t is natural for a teenage girl to frequently change her tastes and opinions. For example, I admit that I have changed my mind about at least a dozen things just during the process of writing this article. This type of adolescent rou- tine clearly explains why those shopping for teenage girls during the holiday sea- son could become frustrated. In order to successfully conquer their ever-changing wish lists, one should keep a few imperative pointers in mind. Novelty gifts are over- rated. .Though you might think you have accurately pinpointed the most specific tastes and desires of the demographic group in ques- tion, you must recognize that as frequently as styles change, so does the mind of the average teenage girl. Attempting to buy a specific "novel" gift is more work than it's worth and assumes a great amount of risk The perfect solution for a risk-free Christmas gilt is simple gift cards. Girls love to shop, and everyone knows that shopping for yourself is always more fun than having somebody else (who may be unsure of your personal taste) shop for you. Gift cards provide a girl with money while also giving her the excuse to go out, have fun, and buy something for herself that she really likes. If gift cards seem too impersonal, and the shopper is feeling ambitious, simple and classic gifts are always great For example, if you know that a girl in your fam- ily likes jewelry, instead of buying her some funky ear- rings that you hope will suit her taste, buy something understated, such as a classy strand of pearls. Teenage girls never turn down classic jewelry like this. Basic gifts, such as pajamas, bathrobes, or slip- pers are also good ideas. Make sure to be conscious of a girl's style maybe even try to isolate one of her close friends for an opinion. In fact, getting a second opinion from another teenage girl is a great idea. Just a few weekends ago, I was shopping and a middle- aged man buying pajamas for his daughter for Christmas stopped me. He told me I resembled her and asked me what size I would wear. I not only gave him my size, but I also gave him an opinion on what pajamas I would choose for myself. This brief interaction helped him find the right gift for his daughter. After getting multiple opinions on popular Christmas gifts from girls at my school, I've been hearing an echo of similar items. Electronics seem to be on the wish list of most of the girls I've spoken to. The new Apple iPod Nano (starting at $199) is a popular gift for teens. This new breed of iPod and can hold pictures and music videos. It can hold 500 songs or 1,000 songs (depend- ing on the type) and is even smaller than the iPod Mini.

Because you haven't ignored your lessons, but learned from them, you are now ready to put your expertise to the test Sagittarius (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) You won't desire to associate with anyone today who does not honor your high standards or philosophy and, because of this, you'll draw only quality people to you. Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)-Along-standing per- sonal matter may finally be put to rest today, but a num- ber of hard lessons will have been learned in the process. Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) if you ask for some honest advice today, you might have to be prepared to swallow some bittersweet counsel. Heed it. Pisces (Feb. 20-March 20) There are no free rides being offered today, but that does not mean you can't get to where you would like to go. If you will work toward these ends, you'll receive that ticket to success. Aries (March 21-April 19) Being around some old friends will give you a big lift today in ways signifi- cant to only you. Taurus (April 20-May 20) -Although you can be a highly sociable person, you also need some time for yourself. This may be one of those days when you will just want to be alone to relax and let it all hang out. Gemini (May 21-June 20)- Success is highly like- ly today, even when working on a new project you've never tackled before. Cancer (June 21-July 22) That payoff you're hoping for (on something which you've worked quite hard and long) is here. Materially it may be big, but your greatest reward will be pride of accomplishment. Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) Seeing life for what it is, warts and all, is really what will be of great aid to you today. Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) If you are in need of someone to confide in today, you'll feel comfortable seeking out a reliable friend who you know can be trust- ed with secrets without any fear of betrayal. Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) Because you are willing to compromise and make hard concessions today, so will those with whom you have dealings. Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) Your amazing dedica- tion to your work today will be the reason why you'll be able to accomplish what others may find impossible to do. Rewards will definitely be in the offing for you.

Other possibilities: Catherine Keener as author Harper Lee in "Capote," Maria Bello as a wife coping with her husband's dark past in 'A History of Violence," Uma Thurman as a bouncy Swedish bimbo in "The Producers," Tilda Swinton as an evil witch in "The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe," Brenda Blethyn as a mom seeking rich sons-in- law in "Pride & Prejudice," Gong Li as a devious geisha and Michelle Yeoh as the heroine's mentor in "Memoirs of a Geisha," Rachel Weisz as a slain humanitarian crusader in "The Constant Gardener," Emily Mortimer as a society bride and Scarlett Johansson as the other woman in her husband's life in "Match Point," Michelle Williams and Anne Hathaway as women whose husbands carry on a homosexual affair in "Brokeback Mountain," Than- die Newton as a black woman humiliated by a racist white cop in "Crash," and Sharon Stone as a flighty closet organizer in "Broken Flowers." Director Past winners Steven Spielberg for "Munich," Ron Howard for "Cinderella Man," Woody Allen for "Match Point" and Peter Jackson for "King Kong" are in the running. Other prospects: Ang Lee, "Brokeback Mountain," Terrence Malick, "The New World," Stephen Gaghan, "Syriana," James Mangold, "Walk the Line," Joe Wright, "Pride & Prejudice," Rob Marshall, "Memoirs of a Geisha," Susan Stroman, "The Producers," David Cronenberg, "A History of Violence," Fernando Mereilles, "The Constant Gardener," Stephen Frears, "Mrs. Henderson Presents," Bennett Miller, "Capote," Tommy Lee Jones, "The Three Burials of Melquiades Estrada," and Paul Haggis, "Crash." Continued from Page 1C Although the most recent technology and electronics are certainly "in," some teen girls aren't as interested in these types of gifts. For example, my trendy friend Stephanie was telling me this past weekend that she would never want an iPod (or anything remotely similar) for Christmas. She would rather receive jewelry, accessories, and even just plain cash. This brings about another important pointer.

"Despite the traffic, the con- cert will go on," he said, and advised planning accordingly Tickets for the concert are $7 and are available from any chorale member or by calling 382-4555. If you miss hearing your favorite music over the week- end (or if you want to hear more), the Citrus Springs Chorus will present its Holiday Concert at 6:30 p.m. Monday at the Citrus Springs Community Center, 1570 W Citrus Springs Blvd., Citrus Springs. Directed by Nancy Gordon, this small but enthusiastic group will perform such favorites as "You're A Mean One, Mr. Grinch" and the tradi- tional, "The Christmas Song." Admission is free.

The best advice I can give is this: begin to steer away from Christmas gift norms and myths. Remember these essen- tial particulars: teen girls appreciate classiness and timeless taste, they like trendy and sophisticated electronics, they certainly love to acces- sorize, and most of all every teen girl likes to be unique and noticed.

I'm writing a program to export and import DAE files. I included both 1.4 and 1.5 libs of Collada DOM in the same project but the program seems to only work for 1.5 files. Is it possible to support 1.4 and 1.5 in the same project?

> Is it possible to support 1.4 and 1.5 in the same project?
This is not officially supported.
As DOM classes don't use namespaces there are name clashes in generated code (e.g. class domCOLLADA exists twice).
If you build two independent DOM libs and load them at runtime, you have to implement an own mechanism to decide which lib to use for which file.
You could open the file manually, have a look at the version or xmlns attributes and decide afterwards which DOM to use. | http://sourceforge.net/p/collada-dom/discussion/531264/thread/3bec63af | CC-MAIN-2015-22 | refinedweb | 146 | 79.36 |
I am learning the fundamentals of the Java language in the command prompt window. Hopefully a few of you people will know how to do this.
I have made a program that calculates random numbers for lottery tickets. What I need to do is remove any duplicates that show up in the output. Can someone tell me how I should go about this? (WARNING! This code is a little messy. I still have to polish it up. :) )
public class Super7 {
public static void main(String [] args) {
//Declare the variables
final int TICKET_PRICE = 2;
int [] boardNumber = new int [7];
int customerTickets;
int maxValue;
int maxIndex;
int customerPrice;
//Ask the user how many tickets he wishes to buy
System.out.print("How many tickets would you like to buy @ $2.00/each: ");
customerTickets = MyInput.readInt();
//Generate the numbers so that each ticket get 3 boards of 7 numbers from 1-49, depending on how many
//tickets he wishes to buy
for (int tickets = 0; tickets < customerTickets; tickets++) {
System.out.println("\n\t The numbers for your Super 7 ticket(s) are: ");
//populate the boardNumber array
for (int numberOfBoards = 0; numberOfBoards < 3; numberOfBoards ++) {
for (int board = 0; board < boardNumber.length; board++) {
boardNumber[board] = (int) (Math.random() * 49 + 1);
}//end for
for(int outerIndex = boardNumber.length-1; outerIndex>=1; outerIndex--) {
maxValue = boardNumber [outerIndex];
maxIndex = outerIndex;
for (int innerIndex = outerIndex - 1; innerIndex>=0; innerIndex--) {
if(maxValue < boardNumber[innerIndex]) {
maxValue = boardNumber[innerIndex];
maxIndex = innerIndex;
}//end if
}//end for
if (maxIndex != outerIndex) {
boardNumber[maxIndex] = boardNumber[outerIndex];
boardNumber[outerIndex] = maxValue;
}//end if
}//end for
for (int i = 0; i < boardNumber.length; i ++) {
System.out.print("\t" + boardNumber[i]);
}//end for
System.out.print("\n");
}//end for
}//end for
customerPrice = customerTickets * TICKET_PRICE;
System.out.println("\n Your cost for " + customerTickets + " ticket(s) is $" + customerPrice + ".00");
}//end main
}//end class
The MyInput.readInt() just reads the users input, it is what we have been given to get the users input.
Thanks for your help, and takeing the time to go through that code, it ain't pretty | http://forums.devx.com/printthread.php?t=137892&pp=15&page=1 | CC-MAIN-2015-11 | refinedweb | 337 | 58.38 |
batch spec YAML referencebatch spec YAML reference
Sourcegraph Batch Changes use batch specs to define batch changes.
This page is a reference guide to the batch spec YAML format in which batch specs are defined. If you’re new to YAML and want a short introduction, see “Learn YAML in five minutes.”
name
The name of the batch change, which is unique among all batch changes in the namespace. A batch change’s name is case-preserving.
ExamplesExamples
name: update-go-import-statements
name: update-node.js
description
The description of the batch change. It’s rendered as Markdown.
ExamplesExamples
description: This batch change changes all `fmt.Sprintf` calls to `strconv.Iota`.
description: | This batch change changes all imports from `gopkg.in/sourcegraph/sourcegraph-in-x86-asm` to `github.com/sourcegraph/sourcegraph-in-x86-asm`
on
The set of repositories (and branches) to run the batch change on, specified as a list of search queries (that match repositories) and/or specific repositories.
ExamplesExamples
on: - repositoriesMatchingQuery: lang:go fmt.Sprintf("%d", :[v]) patterntype:structural - repository: github.com/sourcegraph/sourcegraph
on.repositoriesMatchingQuery
A Sourcegraph search query that matches a set of repositories (and branches). Each matched repository branch is added to the list of repositories that the batch change will be run on.
See “Code search” for more information on Sourcegraph search queries.
ExamplesExamples
on: - repositoriesMatchingQuery: file:README.md -repo:github.com/sourcegraph/src-cli
on: - repositoriesMatchingQuery: lang:typescript file:web const changesetStatsFragment
on.repository
A specific repository (and branch) that is added to the list of repositories that the batch change will be run on.
A
branch attribute specifies the branch on the repository to propose changes to. If unset, the repository’s default branch is used. If set, it overwrites earlier values to be used for the repository’s branch.
ExamplesExamples
on: - repository: github.com/sourcegraph/src-cli
on: - repository: github.com/sourcegraph/sourcegraph branch: 3.19-beta - repository: github.com/sourcegraph/src-cli
In the following example, the
repositoriesMatchingQuery returns both repositories with their default branch, but the
3.23 branch is used for
github.com/sourcegraph/sourcegraph, since it is more specific:
on: - repositoriesMatchingQuery: repo:sourcegraph\/(sourcegraph|src-cli)$ - repository: github.com/sourcegraph/sourcegraph branch: 3.23
In this example,
3.19-beta branch is used, since it was named last:
on: - repositoriesMatchingQuery: repo:sourcegraph\/(sourcegraph|src-cli)$ - repository: github.com/sourcegraph/sourcegraph branch: 3.23 - repository: github.com/sourcegraph/sourcegraph branch: 3.19-beta
steps
The sequence of commands to run (for each repository branch matched in the
on property) to produce the batch change’s changes.
ExamplesExamples
steps: - run: echo "Hello World!" >> README.md container: alpine:3
steps: - run: comby -in-place 'fmt.Sprintf("%d", :[v])' 'strconv.Itoa(:[v])' .go -matcher .go -exclude-dir .,vendor container: comby/comby - run: gofmt -w ./ container: golang:1.15-alpine
steps: - run: ./update_dependency.sh container: our-custom-image env: OLD_VERSION: 1.31.7 NEW_VERSION: 1.33.0
steps.run
The shell command to run in the container. It can also be a multi-line shell script. The working directory is the root directory of the repository checkout.
steps.container
The Docker image used to launch the Docker container in which the shell command is run.
The image has to have either the
/bin/sh or the
/bin/bash shell.
It is executed using
docker on the machine on which the Sourcegraph CLI (
src) is executed. If the image exists locally, that is used. Otherwise it’s pulled using
docker pull.
steps.env
Environment variables to set in the environment when running this command.
These may be defined either as an object or (in Sourcegraph 3.23 and later) as an array.
Environment objectEnvironment object
In this case,
steps.env is an object, where the key is the name of the environment variable and the value is the value.
ExamplesExamples
steps: - run: echo $MESSAGE >> README.md container: alpine:3 env: MESSAGE: Hello world!
Environment arrayEnvironment array
In this case,
steps.env is an array. Each array item is either:
- An object with a single property, in which case the key is used as the environment variable name and the value the value, or
- A string that defines an environment variable to include from the environment
srcis being run within. This is useful to define secrets that you don’t want to include in the spec file, but this makes the spec dependent on your environment, means that the local execution cache will be invalidated each time the environment variable changes, and means that the batch spec file is no longer the sole source of truth intended by the Batch Changes design.
ExamplesExamples
This example is functionally the same as the object example above:
steps: - run: echo $MESSAGE >> README.md container: alpine:3 env: - MESSAGE: Hello world!
This example pulls in the
USER environment variable and uses it to construct the line that will be appended to
README.md:
steps: - run: echo $MESSAGE from $USER >> README.md container: alpine:3 env: - MESSAGE: Hello world! - USER
For instance, if
USER is set to
adam, this would append
Hello world! from adam to
README.md.
steps.files
Files to create on the host machine and mount into the container when running
steps.run.
steps.files is an object, where the key is the name of the file inside the container and the value is the content of the file.
ExamplesExamples
steps: - run: cat /tmp/my-temp-file.txt >> README.md container: alpine:3 files: /tmp/my-temp-file.txt: Hello world!
steps: - run: cat /tmp/global-gitignore >> .gitignore container: alpine:3 files: /tmp/global-gitignore: | # Vim *.swp # JetBrains/IntelliJ .idea # Emacs *~ \#*\# /.emacs.desktop /.emacs.desktop.lock .\#* .dir-locals.el
steps.outputs
Output variables that are set after the
steps.run command has been executed. These variables are available in the global
outputs namespace as
outputs.<name> template variables in the
run,
env, and
outputs properties of subsequent steps, and the
changesetTemplate. Two steps with the same output variable name will overwrite the previous contents.
ExamplesExamples
steps: - run: yarn upgrade container: alpine:3 outputs: # Set output `friendlyMessage` friendlyMessage: value: "Hello there!"
steps: - run: echo "Hello there!" >> message.txt && cat message.txt container: alpine:3 outputs: friendlyMessage: # `value` supports templating variables and can access the just-executed # step's stdout/stderr. value: "${{ step.stdout }}"
steps: - run: echo "Hello there!" container: alpine:3 outputs: stepOneOutput: value: "${{ step.stdout }}" - run: echo "We have access to the output here: ${{ outputs.stepOneOutput }}" container: alpine:3 outputs: stepTwoOutput: value: "here too: ${{ outputs.stepOneOutput }}"
steps: - run: cat .goreleaser.yml >&2 container: alpine:3 outputs: goreleaserConfig: value: "${{ step.stderr }}" # Specifying a `format` tells Sourcegraph CLI how to parse the value before # making it available as a template variable. format: yaml changesetTemplate: # [...] body: | The `goreleaser.yml` defines the following `before.hooks`: ${{ outputs.goreleaserConfig.before.hooks }}
steps.outputs.<name>.value
The value the output should be set to.
steps.outputs.<name>.format
The format of the corresponding
steps.outputs.<name>.value. When this is set to something other than
text, it will be parsed as the given format.
Possible values:
text,
yaml,
json. Default is
text.
steps.if
Condition to check before executing the step. If the value of the
if: attribute is
true (boolean) or
"true" (string) then the step is executed in the given repository (or workspace, in case workspaces are used). Otherwise the step is skipped.
As an optimization, the Sourcegraph CLI tries to evaluate the condition before starting to execute any
steps. If the condition can be evaluated ahead of time and the result of the evaluation is false then the execution of the step won’t be attempted for the repository, which leads to better cache utilization.
Ahead-of-time evaluation is possible if the condition contains only static data. Example:
if: ${{ eq repository.name "github.com/my-org/my-repo" }}. The repository name is known before the execution of the steps, so evaluation succeeds and Sourcegraph CLI will not include the given step in the list of steps to execute for repositories that don’t have the matching name. That in turn allows the modification of this step’s
run attribute, for example, without invalidating the cache for the repositories in which it’s never executed.
ExamplesExamples
steps: # `if:` is true, step always executes. - if: true run: echo "name of repository is ${{ repository.name }}" >> message.txt container: alpine:3
steps: # `if:` is a static string that's not "true", step never executes. - if: "random string" run: echo "name of repository is ${{ repository.name }}" >> message.txt container: alpine:3
steps: # `if:` uses templating to check for repository name and produce a "true". Only runs in github.com/sourcegraph/automation-testing - if: ${{ eq repository.name "github.com/sourcegraph/automation-testing" }} run: echo "hello from automation-testing" >> message.txt container: alpine:3
steps: # `if:` uses glob pattern to match repository name and produce "true" on match. - if: ${{ matches repository.name "*sourcegraph-testing*" }} run: echo "name contains sourcegraph-testing" >> message.txt container: alpine:3
steps: # First step prints to standard out
steps: # `if:` checks for path, in case steps are executed in workspace. - if: ${{ eq steps.path "sub/directory/in/repo" }} run: echo "hello workspace" >> workspace.txt container: golang
importChangesets
An array describing which already-existing changesets should be imported from the code host into the batch change.
ExamplesExamples
importChangesets: - repository: github.com/sourcegraph/sourcegraph externalIDs: [13323, "13343", 13342, 13380] - repository: github.com/sourcegraph/src-cli externalIDs: [260, 271]
importChangesets.repository
The repository name as configured on your Sourcegraph instance.
importChangesets.externalIDs
The changesets to import from the code host. For GitHub this is the pull request number, for GitLab this is the merge request number, for Bitbucket Server this is the pull request number.
changesetTemplate
A template describing how to create (and update) changesets with the file changes produced by the command steps.
This defines what the changesets on the code hosts (pull requests on GitHub, merge requests on Gitlab, …) will look like.
ExamplesExamples
changesetTemplate: title: Replace equivalent fmt.Sprintf calls with strconv.Itoa body: This batch change replaces `fmt.Sprintf("%d", integer)` calls with semantically equivalent `strconv.Itoa` calls branch: batch-changes/sprintf-to-itoa commit: message: Replacing fmt.Sprintf with strconv.Iota author: name: Lisa Coder email: [email protected] published: false
changesetTemplate: title: Update rxjs in package.json to newest version body: This pull request updates rxjs to the newest version, `6.6.2`. branch: batch-changes/update-rxjs commit: message: Update rxjs to 6.6.2 published: true
changesetTemplate: title: Run go fmt over all Go files body: Regular `go fmt` run over all our Go files. branch: go-fmt commit: message: Run go fmt author: name: Anna Wizard email: [email protected] published: # Do not meddle in the affairs of wizards, for they are subtle and quick to anger. - git.istari.example/*: false - git.istari.example/anna/*: true
changesetTemplate.title
The title of the changeset on the code host.
changesetTemplate.body
The body (description) of the changeset on the code host. If the code supports Markdown you can use it here.
changesetTemplate.branch
The name of the Git branch to create or update on each repository with the changes.
changesetTemplate.commit
The Git commit to create with the changes.
changesetTemplate.commit.message
The Git commit message.
changesetTemplate.commit.author
The
name and
ExamplesExamples
changesetTemplate: commit: author: name: Alan Turing email: [email protected]
changesetTemplate.published
Whether to publish the changeset. This may be a boolean value (ie
true or
false),
'draft', or an array to only publish some changesets within the batch change. This may also be omitted, in which case the publication state will be controlled through the Sourcegraph UI, and will default to unpublished (that is, the same as specifying
false).
An unpublished changeset can be previewed on Sourcegraph by any person who can view the batch change, but its commit, branch, and pull request aren’t created on the code host.
When
published is set to
draft a commit, branch, and pull request / merge request are being created on the code host in draft mode. This means:
- On GitHub the changeset will be a draft pull request.
- On GitLab the changeset will be a merge request whose title is be prefixed with
'WIP: 'to flag it as a draft merge request.
- On BitBucket Server draft pull requests are not supported and changesets published as
draftwon’t be created.
A published changeset results in a commit, branch, and pull request being created on the code host.
Publishing only specific changesets
To publish only specific changesets within a batch change, an array of single-element objects can be provided. For example:
published: - github.com/sourcegraph/sourcegraph: true - github.com/sourcegraph/src-cli: false - github.com/sourcegraph/batchutils: draft
Each key will be matched against the repository name using glob syntax. The gobwas/glob library is used for matching, with the key operators being:
If multiple entries match a repository, then the last entry will be used. For example,
github.com/a/b will not be published given this configuration:
published: - github.com/a/*: true - github.com/*: false
If no entries match, then the repository will not be published. To make the default true, add a wildcard entry as the first item in the array:
published: - "*": true - github.com/*: false
By adding a
@<branch> at the end of a match-rule, the rule is only matched against changesets with that branch:
published: - github.com/sourcegraph/src-*@my-branch: true - github.com/sourcegraph/src-*@my-other-branch: true
ExamplesExamples
To publish all changesets created by a batch change:
changesetTemplate: published: true
To publish all changesets created by a batch change as drafts:
changesetTemplate: published: draft
To only publish changesets within the
sourcegraph GitHub organization:
changesetTemplate: published: - github.com/sourcegraph/*: true
To publish all changesets that are not on GitLab:
changesetTemplate: published: - "*": true - gitlab.com/*: false
To publish all changesets on GitHub as draft:
changesetTemplate: published: - "*": true - github.com/*: draft
To publish only one of many changesets in a repository by addressing them with their branch name:
changesetTemplate: published: - "*": true - github.com/sourcegraph/*@my-branch-name-1: draft - github.com/sourcegraph/*@my-branch-name-2: false
(Multiple changesets in a single repository can be produced, for example, per project in a monorepo or by transforming large changes into multiple changesets).
transformChanges
A description of how to transform the changes (diffs) produced in each repository before turning them into separate changeset specs by inserting them into the
changesetTemplate.
This allows the creation of multiple changeset specs (and thus changesets) in a single repository.
ExamplesExamples
# Transform the changes produced in each repository. transformChanges: # Group the file diffs by directory and produce an additional changeset per group. group: # Create a separate changeset for all changes in the top-level `go` directory - directory: go branch: my-batch-change-go # will replace the `branch` in the `changesetTemplate` - directory: internal/codeintel branch: my-batch-change-codeintel # will replace the `branch` in the `changesetTemplate` repository: github.com/sourcegraph/src-cli # optional: only apply the rule in this repository
transformChanges: group: - directory: go/utils/time branch: my-batch-change-go-time # The *last* matching directory is used, not the most specific one, # so only this changeset would be opened. - directory: go/utils branch: my-batch-change-go-date
transformChanges.group
A list of groups to define which file diffs to group together to create an additional changeset in the given repository.
The order of the list matters, since each file diff’s filepath is matched against the
directory of a group and the last match is used.
If no changes have been produced in a
directory then no changeset will be created.
transformChanges.group.directory
The name of the directory in which file diffs should be grouped together.
The name is relative to the root of the repository.
transformChanges.group.branch
The branch that should be used for this additional changeset. This overwrites the
changesetTemplate.branch when creating the additional changeset.
Important: the branch can not be nested under the
changesetTemplate.branch, i.e. if the
changesetTemplate.branch is
my-batch-change then this can not be
my-batch-change/my-subdirectory since git doesn’t allow that. Additionally branch names must be unique and cannot be used as arguments for multiple
directory fields.
transformChanges.group.repository
Optional: the file diffs matching the given directory will only be grouped in a repository with that name, as configured on your Sourcegraph instance.
workspaces
The optional
workspaces property allows users to define where projects are located in repositories and cause the
steps to be executed for each project, instead of once per repository. That allows easier creation of multiple changesets in large repositories.
For each repository that’s yielded by
on and matched by a
workspaces.in property, Sourcegraph search is used to get the locations of the
rootAtLocationOf file. Each location then serves as a workspace for the execution of the
steps, instead of the root of the repository.
Important: Since multiple workspaces in the same repository can produce multiple changesets, it’s required to use templating to produce a unique
changesetTemplate.branch for each produced changeset. See the examples below.
Examples
Defining JavaScript projects that live in a monorepo by using the location of the
package.json file as the root for each project:
on: - repository: github.com/sourcegraph/sourcegraph workspaces: - rootAtLocationOf: package.json in: github.com/sourcegraph/sourcegraph changesetTemplate: # [...] # Since a changeset is uniquely identified by its repository and its # branch we need to ensure that each changesets has a unique branch name. # We can use templating and helper functions get the `path` in which # the `steps` executed and turn that into a branch name: branch: my-multi-workspace-batch-change-${{ replace steps.path "/" "-" }}
Using templating to produce a unique branch name in repositories with workspaces and repositories without workspaces:
on: - repository: github.com/sourcegraph/sourcegraph - repository: github.com/sourcegraph/src-cli workspaces: - rootAtLocationOf: package.json in: github.com/sourcegraph/sourcegraph changesetTemplate: # [...] # Since the steps in `github.com/sourcegraph/src-cli` are executed in the # root, where path is "", we can use `join_if` to drop it from the branch name # if it's a blank string: branch: ${{ join_if "-" "my-multi-workspace-batch-change" (replace steps.path "/" "-") }}
Defining where Go, JavaScript, and Rust projects live in multiple repositories:
workspaces: - rootAtLocationOf: go.mod in: github.com/sourcegraph/go-* - rootAtLocationOf: package.json in: github.com/sourcegraph/*-js onlyFetchWorkspace: true - rootAtLocationOf: Cargo.toml in: github.com/rusty-org/* changesetTemplate: # [...] branch: ${{ join_if "-" "my-multi-workspace-batch-change" (replace steps.path "/" "-") }}
Using
steps.outputs to dynamically create unique branch names:
# [...] on: # Find all repositories with a package.json file - repositoriesMatchingQuery: repohasfile:package.json workspaces: # Define that workspaces have their root folder at the location of the # package.json files - rootAtLocationOf: package.json in: "*" steps: # [... steps that produce changes ...] # Run `jq` to extract the "name" from the package.json - run: jq -j .name package.json container: jiapantw/jq-alpine:latest outputs: # Set outputs.packageName to stdout of this step's `run` command. packageName: value: ${{ step.stdout }} changesetTemplate: # [...] # Use `outputs` variables to create a unique branch name per changeset: branch: my-batch-change-${{ outputs.projectName }}
workspaces.rootAtLocationOf
The full name of the file that sits at the root of one or more workspaces in a given repository.
Sourcegraph code search is used to find the location of files with this name in the repositories returned by
on.
For example, in a repository with the following files:
packages/sourcegraph-ui/package.json
packages/sourcegraph-test-helper/package.json
the workspace configuration
workspaces: - rootAtLocationOf: package.json in: "*"
would create two changesets in the repository, one in
packages/sourcegraph-ui and one in
packages/sourcegraph-test-helper.
workspaces.in
The repositories in which the workspace should be discovered.
This field supports globbing by using glob syntax. See “Publishing only specific changesets” for more information on globbing.
A repository matching multiple entries results in an error.
ExamplesExamples
Match all repository names that begin with
github.com/:
workspaces: - rootAtLocationOf: go.mod in: github.com/*
Match all repository names that begin with
gitlab.com/my-javascript-org/ and end with
-plugin:
workspaces: - rootAtLocationOf: package.json in: gitlab.com/my-javascript-org/*-plugin
workspaces.onlyFetchWorkspace
When set to
true, only the folder containing the workspace is downloaded to execute the
steps.
This field is not required and when not set the default is
false.
Additional files —
.gitignore and
.gitattributes as of now — are downloaded from the location of the workspace up to the root of the repository.
For example, with the following file layout in a repository
. ├── a │ ├── b │ │ ├── [... other files in b ...] │ │ ├── package.json │ │ └── .gitignore │ │ │ ├── [... other files in a ...] │ ├── .gitattributes │ └── .gitignore │ ├── [... other files in root ... ] └── .gitignore
and this workspace configuration
workspaces: - rootAtLocationOf: package.json in: github.com/our-our/our-large-monorepo onlyFetchWorkspace: true
then
- the
stepswill be executed in
b
- the complete contents of
bwill be downloaded and are available to the steps
- the
.gitattributesand
.gitignorefiles in
awill be downloaded and put in
a, but only those
- the
.gitignorefiles in the root will be downloaded and put in the root folder, but only that file
ExamplesExamples
Only download the workspaces of specific JavaScript projects in a large monorepo:

In this article, I will walk you through a simple application using MVC4 and Entity Framework 5 and will demonstrate how one can make use of code first technology. I will be using MvsScaffold for quick creation of controllers and views. We will be creating a TODO application.
Before we start, lets make sure you have NuGet package manager and SQL component if you don’t already have it.
In Visual Studio 2010 (I use professional one), go to Tools –> Extension Manager…
Click on the ‘Online Gallery’ in search box type NuGet and hit enter. It will show the NuGet Pakage Manager, I already have it installed to you can see the green click mark. If you do not have install, double click it to install, and follow the instructions.
When you have the NuGet pakage install, you should be able to see the library package manager. Tools-> Library Package Manager –> Package Manager Console
Clicking this menu item should bring up the powershell console
Type Install-Package EntityFramework.SqlServerCompact, hit
Enter. This will install the SQL component.
Select Internet Application, choose the view engine as Razor
Open Package Manager Console (Tools-> Library Package Manager –> Package Manager Console)
Run following commands in the console
1: //Install
2: Install-Package EntityFramework
3: //Or Update
4: Update-Package EntityFramework
Now install MvcScaffolding
1: Install-Package MvcScaffolding
In case you are not already aware, hitting tab key brings up the options, make use of it whenever you need it in Package Manager Console.
Create a cs file named Models.cs in Model folder (actually you should create different files for different models, I created all of them just
to save my time)
Models.cs contains following three models.
1: using System;
2: using System.Collections.Generic;
3: using System.Linq;
4: using System.Web;
5: using System.ComponentModel.DataAnnotations;
6: using System.ComponentModel.DataAnnotations.Schema;
7:
8: namespace TODO.Models
9: {
10: public class Task
11: {
12: [Key]
13: public int TaskId { get; set; }
14: public string Name { get; set; }
15: public string Description { get; set; }
16: public int? StatusId { get; set; }
17: [ForeignKey("StatusId")]
18: public virtual Status Status { get; set; }
19: public virtual ICollection<Note> Notes { get; set; }
20: public DateTime? CreatedOn { get; set; }
21: public DateTime? ModifiedOn { get; set; }
22: }
23:
24: public class Status
25: {
26: [Key]
27: public int StatusId { get; set; }
28: public string Name { get; set; }
29: }
30:
31: public class Note
32: {
33: [Key]
34: public int NoteId { get; set; }
35: public string Description { get; set; }
36: public int? TaskId { get; set; }
37: public DateTime? CreatedOn { get; set; }
38: public DateTime? ModifiedOn { get; set; }
39: }
40: }
Line 5,6: References so that I could use the Data Annotation as you can see in line 12, 17, 26 and 33. You can refer following article
for more information on Data Annotations.
Notice line 18, as it can see this property should be the virtual with an attribute named
ForeignKey with the FK, also check line 16, you need to have the StatusId to link the tables.
Also if you notice line 36, Note should belong to some Task but do not need to have a Note itself.
I have used [Key] is to explicitly mention the primary keys.
Step 5: Create Controller and Views
Go to Package Manager Console, run following commands
1: Scaffold Controller Task -Repository
2: Scaffold Controller Note -Repository
3: Scaffold Controller Status –Repository
I am using ‘-Repository’ option, because I want to access the data through repositories. When you change the Models and want to recreate
the Controllers or View use ‘-Force’ option.
1: Scaffold Controller Task -Repository -Force
2: Scaffold Controller Note -Repository -Force
3: Scaffold Controller Status -Repository -Force
This step automatically create Repositories, Controllers, DBContext and Views.
Step 6: Edit Layout
Open Shared/_Layout.cshtml and add the links so that you can easily navigate to the actions and may be you want to update the Title of the application
<li>@Html.ActionLink("Home", "Index", "Home")</li>
<li>@Html.ActionLink("About", "About", "Home")</li>
<li>@Html.ActionLink("Contact", "Contact", "Home")</li>
Run the application it should work just fine. Isn’t it cool?
Comment out the divs in _CreateOrEdit.cshtml of Notes and Tasks view which display the ModifiedOn and CreatedOn fields.
Go to NoteRepository.cs and TaskRepository.cs, find InsertOrUpdate() method and modify them as follows
1: public void InsertOrUpdate(Task task)
2: {
3: if (task.TaskId == default(int)) {
4: // New entity
5: task.CreatedOn = task.ModifiedOn = DateTime.Now;
6: context.Tasks.Add(task);
7: } else {
8: // Existing entity
9: task.ModifiedOn = DateTime.Now;
10: context.Entry(task).State = EntityState.Modified;
11: }
12: }
Notice line 5 and 9, where I am modifying the
ModifiedOn and CreatedOn before saving and updating the model.
ModifiedOn
CreatedOn
Update: Adding some information about line 10 as per a user commentLine 10: context.Entry(task).State = EntityState.Modified; This is a way to tell the dbContext that some properties of the entity has been modified but SaveChanges() is not called. Entity framework takes care of updating the entity with the modified values. Calling the context.Entry() returns DbEntityEntry<TEntity> object which provide access to information about and control of entities that are being tracked by the DbContext. In a simple words, it's the way to tell Entity Framework to update an entity with the modified values.
You would also need to have following line in _CreateOrEdit.cshtml of tasks so persist the values of
CreatedOn.
1: @Html.HiddenFor(m=>m.CreatedOn)
Run the application again and you should be able to add, update and delete the data
This is not it, this has automatically created the database for you, you can check that out, Browse to SQLExpress database there you should be able to see a database for this application.
Check the Tables, Columns, Primary Keys and Foreign Keys they are all in place exactly as you created them in the models.
There is too much explain, however, as per the scope of this article, consider this article as starting point to plunge deep into this. Before I wrap up this article,
one last thing want to inform you about which is called database initializer.
Go to TODOContext.cs in the Model folder, create a constructor of
TODOContext as follows:
TODOContext
public TODOContext()
{
System.Data.Entity.Database.SetInitializer(
new System.Data.Entity.DropCreateDatabaseIfModelChanges<TODO.Models.TODOContext>());
}
It does as the name says DropCreateDatabaseIfModelChanges when you change any Model by adding or deleting some properties, the current database will be dropped and it will be recreated. If you modify the model without having this constructor, you might see an error as follows
DropCreateDatabaseIfModelChanges
I have already mentioned the database will be created in the SQLExpress, do not be surprised if you do not see the database getting created in the database specified by you in the connectionstring of the web.config.
Note: Entity framework will always try to connect to the local SQL Server Express database (.\SQLEXPRESS). Starting with EF 5,
Ef will use LocalDb if it doesn’t detect SQL Express running. SQL Express will always get precedence if it is installed, even if you are using Visual Studio 2012.

I’m really new to tensorflow and just found something unusual when instantiating a keras metric object as follows.
import tensorflow as tf m = tf.keras.metrics.Mean(name='test')
Once executing two lines above in python, GPU memory consumption soars from 0% to around 95% (about 10GiB) in a moment. And it never goes down until I terminate the program or delete the instance. I checked it on
nvtop gpu monitor.
My machine is Ubuntu server with eight RTX2080Ti GPUs equipped. Plus, I’m using docker image provided by the Nvidia NGC (specifically, nvcr.io/nvidia/tensorflow:20.03-tf2-py3)
I observed the same issue on TitanXp machine. And another docker image (nvcr.io/nvidia/tensorflow:20.01-tf2-py3) showed the same issue.
Do you guys get the same issue? Is it a bug of tensorflow or the docker image? | https://forums.developer.nvidia.com/t/excessive-gpu-memory-consumption-of-tensorflow-keras-metrics-metric-objects/120073 | CC-MAIN-2021-39 | refinedweb | 143 | 61.12 |

I added some error checking for a few cases that made sense to me, such as:
I also changed the inputs and outputs to specifically be unsigned integers, since it seems like negative numbers were not meant to be used here and this avoids having to do error checking for things like:

I was having a look around the Instructables site, and saw some Matrix screen makers.
I like writing computer programs, and one time decided to make one of these, and I am going to show you how!
You must have the Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5 installed to do this.
Please rate, it is my first instructable, and I want to know how I go.
**UPDATE**
If you do not have the Microsoft.NET Framework 3.5, you can easily download it from the Microsoft Download site (download.microsoft.com), and search for .NET 3.5.
I have made a new version that spits out random characters, instead of just numbers.
It DOES NOT show a screenshot of the matrix, or show a 3D screen. Just random letters. In green.
Step 1: Coding
You need to download the code file attached, and save it in to your my documents folder. If you are interested in computer programming, this program might be interesting to look at. You need to copy all of the italic text, and save it to a file called Program.txt.
using System; namespace Matrix_V2 { class Program { static void Main(string[] args) {
//Sets the text color to green
Console.ForegroundColor = ConsoleColor.Green;
//Create a string with some random characters
string random_characters = "£¤¥¦§¨©ª«¬®¯±²³´µ¶·¸¹ºΣΤΦΩαβδεμπστφABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZabcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz<,>.?/:;\"\'{[}]\\|`~0123456790-_=+!@#$%^&*() ";
//Get all of those characters and turn them into an "array"
char[] random_characters_array = random_characters.ToCharArray();
//Clear the screen Console.Clear();
//Writes details about the application to the console screen
Console.Title = "Matrix V2 - Press Ctrl+C to exit";
Console.WriteLine("Matrix V2");
Console.WriteLine("Written by Chris Ward");
Console.WriteLine("");
Console.Write("Press any key to continue");
Console.ReadKey();
//Creates a pseudo-random generator
Random r = new Random();
//Creates a statement that runs forever
while (true) {
//Gets the ASCII character from the array, based on what the number is
Console.Write(random_characters_array[r.Next(random_characters.Length)]);
//then runs the statement again... and again... etc.
} } } }
so i have to have the frame work in order for this to work, and i really dont want just random as letters and numbers, does it look exactly like it in the picture?

I have two java errors that I need help on solving, please help!!
Error 1: incomparable types: Scanner and String
Error 2: bad operand types for binary operator '+'
Here is my code:

Scanner x = new Scanner(System.in);
x.nextInt();
Scanner y = new Scanner(System.in);
y.nextInt();

function.next();
if (function == "add") {
int sum = x + y;
System.out.println(sum);
}
You can't use
+ for a non-primitive type (or
String). In your case, you try to use it for a
Scanner reference.
You probably meant:

In part 3 I want to show you how to query References.
In the previous post I showed you three basic classes that demonstrate a Relationship between Order and OrderLine, and a Reference to User from Order using the UserId.
I’ve setup some really basic test data:
using (var session = store.OpenSession()) { session.Store(new User { FirstName = "Phillip", Surname = "Haydon", Username = "phillip.haydon", Password = "somepassword" }); session.Store(new User { FirstName = "Edward", Surname = "Norton", Username = "edward.norton", Password = "somepassword" }); session.Store(new Order { UserId = "users/1", DateOrdered = DateTime.Now, DateUpdated = DateTime.Now, Status = "Ordered", Lines = new List<OrderLine> { new OrderLine { Discount = 0m, PricePerUnit = 13.95m, Quantity = 5, SkuCode = "SN78" }, new OrderLine { Discount = 0m, PricePerUnit = 13.95m, Quantity = 5, SkuCode = "SN78" } } }); session.SaveChanges(); }
This creates two collections:
With our Order document looking like:
{ "UserId": "users/1", "DateOrdered": "2012-07-13T23:34:40.5542680", "DateUpdated": "2012-07-13T23:34:40.5542680", "Status": "Ordered", "Lines": [ { "PricePerUnit": 13.95, "Quantity": 5, "Discount": 0.0, "SkuCode": "SN78" }, { "PricePerUnit": 13.95, "Quantity": 5, "Discount": 0.0, "SkuCode": "SN78" } ] }
What’s cool about RavenDB Studio is that it shows us that the UserId is a reference.
RavenDB links the reference up for you as well so you can click it and it will navigate you directly to the document that is being referenced.
There are three ways that we can load this data in code.
- Roundtrip to the store
- Include
- Transform
Roundtrip to the store
This method is easy peasy, and it’s pretty similar to something you would do when working with a relational database.
using (var session = store.OpenSession()) { var order = session.Load<Order>("orders/1"); var user = session.Load<User>(order.UserId); Console.WriteLine("Lines: " + order.Lines.Count()); Console.WriteLine("FirstName: " + user.FirstName); }
When we run this we get an output like so:
The problem with this approach is that we have to go to RavenDB twice, shown here:
But it achieves the desired result.
Include
The include method is very similar, the only difference is we tell RavenDB to include the User when we fetch the Order.
This can be done like so:
using (var session = store.OpenSession()) { var order = session.Include<Order>(x => x.UserId) .Load<Order>("orders/1"); var user = session.Load<User>(order.UserId); Console.WriteLine("Lines: " + order.Lines.Count()); Console.WriteLine("FirstName: " + user.FirstName); }
As you can see all we have done is add the Include method to our initial query.
When we run this we get the exact same output, the difference this time is that RavenDB will issue 1 query for data.
So the first query for Order, includes the User. This User object is now part of the current RavenDB Session, so now when we load the User on the next line it doesn’t need to go to RavenDB to fetch it, it already has it.
Transform
This last method is quite different to the last two, it involves writing an index and implementing TransformResults.
First we start by defining an index, which basically just grabs the UserId in the map, then looks up the user in the transform.
public class Order_WithUser : AbstractIndexCreationTask<Order> { public Order_WithUser() { Map = o => from s in o select new { s.UserId }; TransformResults = (database, results) => from s in results let user = database.Load<User>(s.UserId) select new { s.Id, s.UserId, s.DateOrdered, s.DateUpdated, s.Status, s.Lines, User = user }; } }
Then we can query it and return it as a new model that includes the User (this could also be added to the Order and not persisted but I’ve made it a separate model for demonstration)
public class OrderResult { public string Id { get; set; } public string UserId { get; set; } public DateTime DateOrdered { get; set; } public DateTime DateUpdated { get; set; } public string Status { get; set; } public IEnumerable<OrderLine> Lines { get; set; } public User User { get; set; } }
using (var session = store.OpenSession()) { var order = session.Query<Order, Order_WithUser>() .Where(x => x.Id == "orders/1") .AsProjection<OrderResult>() .SingleOrDefault(); Console.WriteLine("Lines: " + order.Lines.Count()); Console.WriteLine("FirstName: " + order.User.FirstName); }
When we run this again we get the same results, however in RavenDB we have had to query against an index, rather than just grabbing the document as is.
That concludes part 3. Any questions, leave a comment or join the JabbR RavenDB chat room.

Modified robot to work on two symbols see /forum/cbot-support/2045?page=1#2 The robot starts by making a trade in the direction of the last two completed bars if the same. Sets take profit initially and then trails with stop loss. The subsequent trades, up to a max number of trades (input), are in the same direction of the first trade are entered based on the current price compared to the last entry price. If a trade is deleted manually the robot will start from the beginning. Currently not supported in backtesting (GetSymbol not supported)
This bot is usefull to check your manual strategy. You can choose some past days and trade on ctrader in backtesting. To use this bot you must set visual mode flag in backtesting and run the back testing. After start the back testing you will see a windows form where you can buy and sell by hand. There is also a combobox where you can choose one of open positions and change the stop loss, the take profit and the volume. Enjoy Amerigo.

This is an enhanced pending order cBot. Instead of defining a price to enter the market, you define a price range where a trade may open. Order is opened when the current ask price is in the range defined and volatility and trend strength are picking up. You may set “Open trade on Start” to yes and the order will open immediately after you start the cBot. How it works The “Target TP” price used as take profit and the “Pivot SL” price used as the stop loss. Trade will open on the criteria bellow: If ask price is smaller than target price, buy order is opened. If ask price is bigger than target price, sell order is opened. Ask price must be between target and pivot price. “Distance from Target/Pivot” in pips defines the minimum distance between ask price/pivot price and ask price/target price. ADX value must be greater than 20. If MACD signal line cross above MACD line open sell order. If MACD signal line cross bellow MACD line, open buy order. Volume is calculated depending on the Pivot/SL price you’ve defined and the amount in your account’s currency you want to ris

cTrader Read Excel Data

Execute trades example using LinqToExcel and LINQ to easily read an Excel or CSV file into your Automated Trading Robot. Download Source Code Here Please note that this is an example and not a working robot. I found this very useful tool for working with Microsoft Excel data that I would like to share with you. If you need to get data out of Excel, which can be done using ADO.NET. However using LINQ to Excel makes this very easy for people who are not experienced programmers. DATA - ANALYSIS - TRADE This robot is an example to demonstrate the power you can have at your fingertips using cTrader, cAlgo and C#, this robot reads trades from an excel file and executes them in real time with the robot, you can dynamically modify the trade results with user defined parameters from the robots user interface or from within the code. Watch uTube video about LinqToExcel to find out more... THE SIMPLEST WAY OF READING DATA FROM EXCEL The example shows a list of trades for the day that have been entered onto a spreadsheet with separate sheets for different instruments, it does not matter if this would not be useful in real life, it is just to show what can be accomplished and possibilities. The image below shows information for opening new positions when the price reaches the entry price, the expiry date and time allows you to filter these out using LINQ from within your robot. You will notice in the source code that there is a class called DailyTrade, this class is the data container which will automatically be populated with data from the spreadsheet. As you can see the class name is the same as the spreadsheet name dailyTrades.xls and each property has an attribute [ExcelColumn], this maps to the name of columns in the spreadsheet, so the property name does not have to be the same as the property name and you can have spaces in the column name. The code that injects all the data into the class is a collection of DataTrade objects, so you will end up with a list of daily trades which you can iterate through to open the trades. You will be able to access the data in a clean and readable manner like; trade.EntryPrice or trade.ExpiryDate.

La idea inicial de este cbot es abrir ordenes opuestas con un SL definido, de manera que cuando el precio cierre una posición se abran de nuevo 2 posiciones nuevas en hedging con SL definido de nuevo y así succesivamente acumulando beneficio en las posiciones abiertas siempre y cuando el precio no gire de nuevo. Creo que es una muy buena opción para momentos en los que hay mucha volatilidad como por ejemplo en noticias. Como tengo unos conocimientos en programación muy limitados este cbot tiene un problema que no se resolver, si operas en otro mercado mientras esta activo y cerras alguna posición, abre de nuevo 2 posiciones.

Pulse-width modulation (PWM) is a way to use a digital output (i.e. one that is only on or off) to simulate an analog or varying voltage output. PWM works by turning a digital output on and off very quickly. So quickly that the component connected to it can't tell the output signal is changing, instead it just sees the 'average' of how long the signal is on vs. off. If the output is turned on for slightly longer then it's turned off it will appear to be a higher value. Controlling how long the signal is on vs. off, or the duty cycle, allows you to smoothly control the output values.
One great example of using PWM is to dim a LED between full and no brightness. If a PWM signal is fast enough (changing more than about 60 times a second) the human eye won't be able to see the LED turning on and off quickly. Instead the eye will see a brighter light the longer the PWM signal is turned on vs. off. Using PWM you can control the brightness of a LED so that it pulses and glows in interesting ways instead of just blinking fully on and off.
Note that PWM control in MicroPython is somewhat in flux and varies greatly depending on the board. This example will only look at MicroPython on the ESP8266 as it has a simple PWM interface, however be sure to consult the documentation for other boards to learn how to use PWM:
- MicroPython ESP8266 PWM Documentation
- MicroPython pyboard PWM Documentation
- PWM on the pyboard currently uses a lower-level timer interface.
- MicroPython WiPy PWM Documentation
- PWM on the WiPy also uses a lower-level timer interface.
For this example you'll learn how to dim a LED using MicroPython on the ESP8266. To follow this example you'll need the following parts (all available in the Adafruit Parts Pal):
- MicroPython ESP8266 board, like the Adafruit Feather HUZZAH ESP8266.
- 1x LED, like one of these 5mm diffused red LEDs.
- 1x ~560-3k ohm resistor. You need to use a resistor to limit the current that can flow through the LED (otherwise you might send too much current through the LED and damage it or the MicroPython board!). The exact value of the resistor usually doesn't matter here, anything in the 560-3,000 ohm range should work great (higher resistance will be lower current and usually dimmer LED). If unsure grab a 2200 ohm resistor pack.
- Breadboard & jumper wires.
Wire up the components exactly the same as from the blink a LED guide:
- Digital GPIO 15 is connected to the anode, or longer leg, of the LED. It's very important to use the correct leg of the LED otherwise it won't light up as expected! Note don't use GPIO 16 as it doesn't support PWM output on the ESP8266.
- The cathode, or shorter leg, of the LED is connected to one side of the resistor (unlike the LED it doesn't matter which way you orient the resistor).
- The other side of the resistor is connected to the board's ground or GND pin.
Now connect to a serial or other REPL on your board and run the following code to import the machine module and create a PWM controlled pin:
import machine pwm = machine.PWM(machine.Pin(15))
import machine pwm = machine.PWM(machine.Pin(15))
The second line will create an instance of the PWM class from the machine module and assign it to a variable called pwm. Notice that the initializer takes in a machine Pin class instance, in this case one created for pin 15.
Next you can set the frequency of the PWM signal to 60hz by calling the freq function:
pwm.freq(60)
pwm.freq(60)
The frequency controls how fast the PWM signal is turned on and off, in this case a frequency of 60 will make the LED turn on and off 60 times a second. You might need to adjust the frequency depending on what you're trying to control with a PWM output. For LEDs you don't need a super fast frequency since humans can't really see something changing hundreds or thousands of times a second.
You can also see the current frequency of the PWM output by calling the freq function with no parameter:
pwm.freq()
pwm.freq()
Also note the frequency is global to all PWM instances. If you create multiple PWM objects and change the frequency on one it will change the frequency for all of them.
Now you can set the 'duty cycle', or percent of time that the signal is on vs. off, with the duty function:
pwm.duty(1023)
pwm.duty(1023)
The value you pass to the duty function should be in the range of 0 to 1023. A value of 1023 like the above will set the duty cycle to 100% or completely on. This means the signal never actually turns off--it's always on and the LED is full brightness.
Now try setting the duty cycle to 0:
pwm.duty(0)
pwm.duty(0)
Notice the LED turns off. This is because the duty cycle is 0% or completely off--the LED never actually turns on.
Set the duty cycle somewhere inbetween 0 and 1023, like about halfway at 512:
pwm.duty(512)
pwm.duty(512)
Now you should see the LED light up less bright than before!
Try setting the duty cycle to different values between 0 and 1023 to see how the brightness changes. As you increase the duty cycle to 100% the LED will get brighter! Remember this is because the PWM signal is turned on for a higher percent of time than turned off. Your eye doesn't see each flash of the LED, instead it just see the 'average' amount of time its on as different brightness levels.
You can also call the duty function without a parameter to see the current duty cycle value:
pwm.duty()
pwm.duty()
You might wonder why the duty cycle is set with a number between 0 and 1023. Like using the ADC there's a limited 'resolution' or bit accuracy for the PWM output and with the ESP8266 you only have 10 bits available (0 to 1023).
Try making the LED fade or pulse on and off by running the following code:)
You should see the LED quickly fade or pulse on and off about once a second. Press Ctrl-c to interrupt and stop the code when finished.
This code will import modules and setup the PWM output as shown previously. Then it jumps into an infinite loop (the while True loop) that ramps the LED up from 0 to 100% duty cycle (0 to 1023) and then back down from 100% to 0% duty cycle.
Notice the ramp up is done in a for loop over the range of values 0 to 1023. Inside the loop the duty cycle is set to the appropriate value, then the time.sleep function delays for a short time (1 millisecond). Another for loop does the ramp down but this time it uses the range of 1023 down to 0 (notice the different range function syntax to count down to 0 instead of up).
To go further on your own try combining reading a potentiometer value with dimming a LED using PWM. As you saw on the previous page you can use the ESP8266 ADC to read the position of a potentiometer knob. Then using that position you can use a PWM output to control the intensity of a LED as shown on this page.. However not all components can be directly controlled with PWM, only components like LEDs which can tolerate the fast signal change and 'average' it out to be a different intensity of light.
As mentioned too other MicroPython boards have a slightly different syntax than the PWM class in the MicroPython ESP8266 port shown above. Consult your board's documentation for more details. The basic ideas of frequency and duty cycle are the same but other boards differ in how they expose control over those parameters using timers and other lower-level details. | https://learn.adafruit.com/micropython-hardware-analog-i-o/pulse-width-modulation | CC-MAIN-2021-49 | refinedweb | 1,378 | 69.31 |
I have a List, which may contain elements that will compare as equal. I would like a similar List, but with one element removed. So from (A, B, C, B, D) I would like to be able to "remove" just one B to get e.g. (A, C, B, D). The order of the elements in the result does not matter.
I have working code, written in a Lisp-inspired way in Scala. Is there a more idiomatic way
to do this?
The context is a card game where two decks of standard cards are in play, so there may
be duplicate cards but still played one at a time.
def removeOne(c: Card, left: List[Card], right: List[Card]): List[Card] = {
if (Nil == right) {
return left
}
if (c == right.head) {
return left ::: right.tail
}
return removeOne(c, right.head :: left, right.tail)
}
def removeCard(c: Card, cards: List[Card]): List[Card] = {
return removeOne(c, Nil, cards)
}
I haven't seen this possibility in the answers above, so:
scala> def remove(num: Int, list: List[Int]) = list diff List(num) remove: (num: Int,list: List[Int])List[Int] scala> remove(2,List(1,2,3,4,5)) res2: List[Int] = List(1, 3, 4, 5)
Edit:
scala> remove(2,List(2,2,2)) res0: List[Int] = List(2, 2)
Like a charm :-). | https://codedump.io/share/b2Ff4QRArhAM/1/what-is-an-idiomatic-scala-way-to-quotremovequot-one-element-from-an-immutable-list | CC-MAIN-2018-26 | refinedweb | 222 | 82.54 |

>>> print "Hello World!" Hello World!
Another great feature of Python is its availability for all platforms. Python can run on Microsoft Windows, Macintosh and all Linux distributions with ease. This makes the programs very portable, as any program written for one platform can easily be used on another..
Getting Python
In order to program in Python you need the Python interpreter. If it is not already installed or if the version you are using is obsolete, you will need to obtain and install Python using the methods below:
Python 2 vs Python 3Edit. Now we are in the era of Python3.6
Installing Python in WindowsEdit
Go to the Python Homepage or the ActiveState website[1], eric[2], PyScripter[3], orwinEdit
By default, the Cygwin installer for Windows does not include Python in the downloads. However, it can be selected from the list of packages.
Installing Python on MacEditEdit
Python is available as a package for some Linux distributions. In some cases, the distribution CD will contain the python package for installation, while other distributions require downloading the source code and using the compilation scripts.
Gentoo LinuxEdit
Gentoo is an example of a distribution that installs Python by default — the package management system Portage depends on Python.
Ubuntu LinuxEditUsers of Ubuntu will notice that Python comes installed by default, only it sometimes is not the latest version. To check which version of Python is installed, type
python -V
Arch LinuxEdit
Arch Linux does not come with Python pre-installed by default, but it is easily available for installation through the package manager to pacman. As root (or using sudo if you've installed and configured it), type:
pacman -S python
This will be update package databases and install Python 3. Python 2 can be installed with:
pacman -S python2
Other versions can be built from source from the Arch User Repository.
Source code installationsEditEdit)Edit
CPython ships with IDLE; however, IDLE is not considered user-friendly.[1] For Linux, KDevelop and Spyder are popular. For Windows, PyScripter is free, quick to install, and comes included with PortablePython. The best py used GUI Builder is actually Boa Constructor, but has suffered from bit rot significantly, so it is best to be used in conjunction with LiClipse..
Trying Python onlineEdit
You can try Python online, thereby avoiding the need to install. Keywords: REPL.
Links:
- Python shell, python.org
- Python 3 REPL, repl.it
- Python 2 REPL, repl.it
Keeping Up to DateEditEdit
Setting it up
There are several IDEs available for Python. A full list can be found on the Python wiki.
Installing new modulesEdit
Although many applications and modules have searchable webpages, there is a central repository for searching packages for installation, known as the "Cheese Shop".

Interactive mode
Python has two basic modes: script and interactive..
Interactive mode is a good way to play around and try variations on syntax.
On macOS or linux, open a terminal and simply type "python". On Windows, bring up the command prompt and type "py", or start an interactive Python session by selecting "Python (command line)", "IDLE", or similar program from the task bar / app menu. IDLE is a GUI which includes both an interactive mode and options to edit and run files.
Python should print something like this:
$ python Python 3.0b3 (r30b3:66303, Sep 8 2008, 14:01:02) [MSC v.1500 32 bit (Intel)] on win32 Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information. >>>
(If Python doesn't run, make sure it is installed and to avoid confusion.. You should have entered >>>
Interactive modeEdit
Instead of Python exiting when the program is finished, you can use the -i flag to start an interactive session. This can be very useful for debugging and prototyping.
python -i hello.py
Self Help
This.
Edit ParameterEdit. However, it is easier to use a text editor that includes Python syntax highlighting.
Hello World!Edit
The first program that beginning programmers usually write is the "Hello, World!" program. This program simply outputs the phrase "Hello, World!" then terminates itself. Let's write "Hello, World!" in Python!
Open up your text editor and create a new file called
hello.py containing just this line (you can copy-paste if you want):
print('Hello, world!')
The below line is used for Python 3.x.x
print("Hello, world!")
You can also put the below line to pause the program at the end until you press anything.
input()
This program uses the
newline character to its output, which simply moves the cursor to the next line.
Now that you've written your first program, let's run it in Python! This process differs slightly depending on your operating system.
WindowsEdit
-.
MacEdit
-Edit
- Create a folder on your computer to use for your Python programs, such as
~/pythonpractice, and save your
hello.pyprogram in that folder.
-.
- Don't forget to make the script executable by chmod +x.
- Type
python ./hello.pyto run your program!
Linux (advanced)Edit
-.
-.
- Type to your shell rc file, for example ~/.bashrc).
ResultEdit
The program should print:
Hello, world!
Congratulations! You're well on your way to becoming a Python programmer.
ExercisesEdit
- Modify the
hello.pyprogram to say hello to someone from your family or your friends (or to Ada Lovelace).
- Change the program so that after the greeting, it asks, "How did you get here?".
- Re-write the original program to use two
NotesEdit
- ↑ Sometimes, Python programs are distributed in compiled form. We won't have to worry about that for quite a while.

Variables and Strings
In this section, you will be introduced to two different kinds of data in Python: variables and strings. Please follow along by running the included programs and examining their output.
VariablesEdit
A variable is something that holds a value,(): Output information to the user.
Basic syntax
There are five fundamental concepts in Python.
Case SensitivityEdit
All variables are case-sensitive. Python treats 'number' and 'Number' as separate, unrelated entities.
Spaces and tabs don't mixEditEdit()
ScopeEditEdit. >>> math.pi 3.1415926535897931
Sequences
Sequences allow you to store multiple values in an organized and efficient fashion. There are seven sequence types: strings, Unicode strings, lists, tuples, bytearrays, buffers, and xrange objects. Dictionaries and sets are containers for sequential data. See the official python documentation on sequences: Python_Documentation (actually there are more, but these are the most commonly used types).
StringsEditEditEditEdit'}
For further explanation on dictionary, see Data Structure/Dictionaries
SetsEditEdit
The relationship between frozenset and set is like the relationship between tuple and list. Frozenset is an immutable version of set. An example:
>>> frozen=frozenset(['life','universe','everything']) >>> frozen frozenset(['universe', 'life', 'everything'])
Other data typesEditEdit
ExercisesEdit
-.
Data types
Data tuple1 = (1,2,3) # tuples are immutable list1 = [1,2,3] # lists are mutable tuple2 = append_to_sequence(tuple1) list2 = append_to_sequence(list1) print 'tuple1 = ', tuple1 # outputs (1, 2, 3) print 'tuple2 = ', tuple2 # outputs (1, 2, 3, 9, 9, 9) print 'list1 = ', list1 # outputs [1, 2, 3, 9, 9, 9] print 'list2 = ', list2 # outputs [1, 2, 3, 9, 9, 9]
This will give the above indicated, and usually unintended, output. singleton): ...
PEP8 states that "Comparisons to singletons like None should always be done with is or is not, never the equality operators." Therefore, "if item == None:" is inadvisable. A class can redefine the equality operator (==) such that instances of it will equal None.
You can verify that None is an object by dir(None) or id(None).

Type conversionEdit
Type conversion in Python by example:
v1 = int(2.7) # 2 v2 = int(-3.9) # -3 v3 = int("2") # 2 v4 = int("11", 16) # 17, base 16 v5 = long(2) v6 = float(2) # 2.0 v7 = float("2.7") # 2.7 v8 = float("2.7E-2") # 0.027 v9 = float(False) # 0.0 vA = float(True) # 1.0 vB = str(4.5) # "4.5" vC = str([1, 3, 5]) # "[1, 3, 5]" vD = bool(0) # False; bool fn since Python 2.2.1 vE = bool(3) # True vF = bool([]) # False - empty list vG = bool([False]) # True - non-empty list vH = bool({}) # False - empty dict; same for empty tuple vI = bool("") # False - empty string vJ = bool(" ") # True - non-empty string vK = bool(None) # False vL = bool(len) # True vM = set([1, 2]) vN = list(vM) vO = list({1: "a", 2: "b"}) # dict -> list of keys vP = tuple(vN) vQ = list("abc") # ['a', 'b', 'c'] print v1, v2, v3, type(v1), type(v2), type(v3)
Implicit type conversion:
int1 = 4 float1 = int1 + 2.1 # 4 converted to float # str1 = "My int:" + int1 # Error: no implicit type conversion from int to string str1 = "My int:" + str(int1) int2 = 4 + True # 5: bool is implicitly converted to int

Numbers
Python 2.x supports 4 built-in. In CPython, floats are usually implemented using the C languages double, which often yields 52 bits of significand, 11 bits of exponent, and 1 sign bit, but this is machine dependent.
- Complex: This is a complex number consisting of two floats. Complex literals are written as a + bj where a and b are floating-point numbers denoting the real and imaginary parts respectively.'>
The result of divisions is somewhat confusing. In Python 2.x,)

Strings
OverviewEdit
Strings in Python at a glance:
str1 = "Hello" # A new string using double quotes str2 = 'Hello' # Single quotes do the same str3 = "Hello\tworld\n" # One with a tab and a newline str4 = str1 + " world" # Concatenation str5 = str1 + str(4) # Concatenation with a number str6 = str1[2] # 3rd character str6a = str1[-1] # Last character #str1[0] = "M" # No way; strings are immutable for char in str1: print char # For each character str7 = str1[1:] # Without the 1st character str8 = str1[:-1] # Without the last character str9 = str1[1:4] # Substring: 2nd to 4th character str10 = str1 * 3 # Repetition str11 = str1.lower() # Lowercase str12 = str1.upper() # Uppercase str13 = str1.rstrip() # Strip right (trailing) whitespace str14 = str1.replace('l','h') # Replacement list15 = str1.split('l') # Splitting if str1 == str2: print "Equ" # Equality test if "el" in str1: print "In" # Substring test length = len(str1) # Length pos1 = str1.find('llo') # Index of substring or -1 pos2 = str1.rfind('l') # Index of substring, from the right count = str1.count('l') # Number of occurrences of a substring print str1, str2, str3, str4, str5, str6, str7, str8, str9, str10 print str11, str12, str13, str14, list15 print length, pos1, pos2, count
See also chapter Regular Expression for advanced pattern matching on strings in Python. 2, and take everything in between them. If you are used to indexes in C or Java, this can be a bit disconcerting until you get used to it.
String constantsEdit
String constants can be found in the standard string module. An example is string.digits, which equals to '0123456789'.

Lists in Python at a glance:
list1 = [] # A new empty list list2 = [1, 2, 3, "cat"] # A new non-empty list with mixed item types list1.append("cat") # Add a single member, at the end of the list list1.extend(["dog", "mouse"]) # Add several members list1.insert(0, "fly") # Insert at the beginning list1[0:0] = ["cow", "doe"] # Add members at the beginning doe = list1.pop(1) # Remove item at index last = list3[-1] # Last item nextToLast = list3[-2] # Next-to-last item list7 = [1, 2] + [2, 3, 4] # Concatenation print list1, list2, list3, list4, list5, list6, list7 print list4equal5, list4refEqual5 print list3[1:3], list3[1:], list3[:2] # Slices print max(list3 ), min(list3 ), sum(list3) # Aggregates print [x for x in range(10)] # List comprehension print [x for x in range(10) if x % 2 == 1] print [x for x in range(10) if x % 2 == 1 if x < 5] print [x + 1 for x in range(10) if x % 2 == 1] print [x + y for x in '123' for y in 'abc']
List creationEdit
There are two different ways to make a list in Python. The first is through assignment ("statically"), the second is using list comprehensions ("actively").
Plain creationEditEdit' or y != 'o' ] ['cp', 'ct', 'ap', 'at'] >>> print [x+y for x in 'cat' for y in 'pot' if x != 't'Edit sizeEdit
To find the length of a list use the built in len() method.
>>> len([1,2,3]) 3 >>> a = [1,2,3,4] >>> len( a ) 4
Combining listsEditEdit assign new values to slices of the lists, which don't even have to be the same length:
>>> list[1:4] = ["opportunistic", "elk"] >>> list [2, 'opportunistic', 'elk', 'n']
It's even possible to append items onto the start of lists by assigning to an empty slice:
>>> list[:0] = [3.14, 2.71] >>> list [3.14, 2.71, 2, 'opportunistic', 'elk', 'n']
Similarly, you can append to the end of the list by specifying an empty slice after the end:
>>> list[len(list):] = ['four', 'score'] >>> list [3.14, 2.71, 2, 'opportunistic', 'elk', 'n', 'four', 'score']
You can also completely change the contents of a list:
>>> list[:] = ['new', 'list', 'contents'] >>> list ['new', 'list', 'contents']
The right-hand side of a list assignment statement can be any iterable type:
>>> list[:2] = ('element',('t',),[]) >>> list ['element', ('t',), [], 'contents']
With slicing you can create copy of list since slice returns a new list:
>>> original = [1, 'element', []] >>> list_copy = original[:] >>> list_copy [1, 'element', []] >>> list_copy.append('new element') >>> list_copy [1, 'element', [], 'new element'] >>> original [1, 'element', []]
Note, however, that this is a shallow copy and contains references to elements from the original list, so be careful with mutable types:
>>> list_copy[2].append('something') >>> original [1, 'element', ['something']]
Non-Continuous slicesEditEdit
Lists can be compared for equality.
>>> [1,2] == [1,2] True >>> [1,2] == [3,4] False
Lists can be compared using a less-than operator, which uses lexicographical order:
>>> [1,2] < [2,1] True >>> [2,2] < [2,1] False >>> ["a","b"] < ["b","a"] True
Sorting listsEdit
Sorting at a glance:
list1 = [2, 3, 1, 'a', 'B'] list1.sort() # list1 gets modified, case sensitive list2 = sorted(list1) # list1 is unmodified; since Python 2.4 list3 = sorted(list1, key=lambda x: x.lower()) # case insensitive list4 = sorted(list1, reverse=True) # Reverse sorting order: descending print list1, list2, list3, list4
Sorting lists is easy with a sort method.
>>> list1 = [2, 3, 1, 'a', 'b'] >>> list1.sort() >>> list1 1 = [5, 2, 3, 'q', 'p'] >>> sorted(list1) [2, 3, 5, 'p', 'q'] >>> list1 [5, 2, 3, 'q', 'p']
Note that unlike the sort() method, sorted(list) does not sort the list in place, but instead returns the sorted list. The sorted() function, like the sort() method also accepts the reverse parameter.
Links:
- 2. Built-in Functions # sorted, docs.python.org
- Sorting HOW TO, docs.python.org
IterationEditEdit
Removing aka deleting an item at an index (see also #pop(i)):
list1 = [1, 2, 3, 4] list1.pop() # Remove the last item list1.pop(0) # Remove the first item , which is the item at index 0 print list1 list1 = [1, 2, 3, 4] del list1[1] # Remove the 2nd element; an alternative to list.pop(1) print list1
Removing an element by value:
list1 = ["a", "a", "b"] list1.remove("a") # Removes only the 1st occurrence of "a" print list1
Keeping only items in a list satisfying a condition, and thus removing the items that do not satisfy it:
list1 = [1, 2, 3, 4] newlist = [item for item in list1 if item > 2] print newlist
This uses a list comprehension.
Removing items failing a condition can be done without losing the identity of the list being made shorter, by using "[:]":
list1 = [1, 2, 3, 4] sameList = list1 list1[:] = [item for item in list1 if item > 2] print sameList, sameList is list1
Removing items failing a condition can be done by having the condition in a separate function:
list1 = [1, 2, 3, 4] def keepingCondition(item): return item > 2 sameList = list1 list1[:] = [item for item in list1 if keepingCondition(item)] print sameList, sameList is list1
Removing items while iterating a list usually leads to unintended outcomes unless you do it carefully by using an index:
list1 = [1, 2, 3, 4] index = len(list1) while index > 0: index -= 1 if not list1[index] < 2: list1.pop(index)

AggregatesEditEditEdit.
Removing duplicate itemsEdit
Removing duplicate items from a list (keeping only unique items) can be achieved as follows.
If each item in the list is hashable, using list comprehension, which is fast:
list1 = [1, 4, 4, 5, 3, 2, 3, 2, 1] seen = {} list1[:] = [seen.setdefault(e, e) for e in list1 if e not in seen]
If each item in the list is hashable, using index iteration, much slower:
list1 = [1, 4, 4, 5, 3, 2, 3, 2, 1] seen = set() for i in range(len(list1) - 1, -1, -1): if list1[i] in seen: list1.pop(i) seen.add(list1[i])
If some items are not hashable, the set of visited items can be kept in a list:
list1 = [1, 4, 4, ["a", "b"], 5, ["a", "b"], 3, 2, 3, 2, 1] seen = [] for i in range(len(list1) - 1, -1, -1): if list1[i] in seen: list1.pop(i) seen.append(list1[i])
If each item in the list is hashable and preserving element order does not matter:
list1 = [1, 4, 4, 5, 3, 2, 3, 2, 1] list1[:] = list(set(list1)) # Modify list1 list2 = list(set(list1))
In the above examples where index iteration is used, scanning happens from the end to the beginning. When these are rewritten to scan from the beginning to the end, the result seems hugely slower.

DifferenceEdit
To get the difference between two lists, just iterate:
a = [0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 4] b = [1, 2, 3, 4, 4, 5] print [item for item in a if item not in b] # [0]
IntersectionEdit
To get the intersection between two lists (by preserving its elements order, and their doubles), apply the difference with the difference:
a = [0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 4] b = [1, 2, 3, 4, 4, 5] dif = [item for item in a if item not in b] print [item for item in a if item not in dif] # [1, 2, 3, 4, 4]

Tuples
A tuple in Python is much like a list except that it is immutable (unchangeable) once created. A tuple of hashable objects is hashable and thus suitable as a key in a dictionary and as a member of a set.
OverviewEditEditEditEditEdit
Length: Finding the length of a tuple is the same as with lists; use the built in len() method.
>>> len( ( 1, 2, 3) ) 3 >>> a = ( 1, 2, 3, 4 ) >>> len( a ) 4

Iteration Over SetsEdit
We can also have a loop move over each of the items in a set. However, since sets are unordered, it is undefined which order the iteration will follow.

Set OperationsEditEdit

Set DifferenceEditEdit])
frozensetEdit
A frozenset is basically the same as a set, except that it is immutable - once it is created, its members cannot be changed. Since they are immutable, they are also hashable, which means that frozensets can be used as members in other sets and as dictionary keys. frozensets have the same functions as normal sets, except none of the functions that change the contents (update, remove, pop, etc.) are available.
>>> fs = frozenset([2, 3, 4]) >>> s1 = set([fs, 4, 5, 6]) >>> s1 set([4, frozenset([2, 3, 4]), 6, 5]) >>> fs.intersection(s1) frozenset([4]) >>> fs.add(6) Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module> AttributeError: 'frozenset' object has no attribute 'add'

Conditional StatementsEdit
SwitchEditEditEdit

Another wayEdit
Another way is to use lambdas. Code pasted here with permissions[4][dead link].
result = { 'a': lambda x: x * 5, 'b': lambda x: x + 7, 'c': lambda x: x - 2 }[value](x)
For more information on lambda see anonymous functions in the function section.
Loops
While sets the variable a = input('Number? ') #raw_input() will not work anymore. a = float(a) s += a print ('Total Sum = ',s)
Enter Numbers to add to the sum. Enter 0 to quit. Current Sum: 0 Number? 200 Current Sum: 200 Number? -15.25 Current Sum: 184.75 Number? -151.85 Current Sum: 32.9 Number? 10.00 Current Sum: 42.9 Number? 0 Total Sum = 42.9
Notice how print 'Total Sum =',s is only run at the end. The while statement only affects the lines that are.)
ExamplesEdit
Fibonacci.py
#This program calculates the Fibon = "foobar" #note that != means not equal while password != "unicorn": password = input("Password: ") print ("Welcome in")
Sample run:
Password:auo Password:y22 Password:password Password:open sesame Password:unicorn Welcome in
For LoopsEdit
The next type of loop in Python is the for loop. Unlike in most languages, for requires some __iterable__ object like a Set or List to work. print (""). is.

Keyword globalEdit
Global variables of a Python module are read-accessible from functions in that module. In fact, if they are mutable, they can be also modified via method call. However, they cannot modified via a plain assignment unless declared global in the function.
An example to clarify:
count1 = 1 count2 = 1 list1 = [] list2 = [] def test1(): print count1 # Read access is unproblematic, referring to the global def test2(): try: print count1 # This print would be unproblematic, but it throws an error ... count1 += 1 # ... since count1 += 1 causes count1 to be local. except UnboundLocalError as error: print "Error caught:", error def test3(): list1 = [2] # No outside effect; this rebinds list1 to be a local variable def test4(): global count2, list2 print count1 # Read access is unproblematic, referring to the global count2 += 1 # We can modify count2 via assignment list1.append(1) # Impacts the global list1 even without global declaration list2 = [2] # Impacts the global list2 test1() test2() test3() test4() print "count1:", count1 # 1 print "count2:", count2 # 2 print "list1:", list1 # [1] print "list2:", list2 # [2]

Keyword nonlocalEdit
Keyword nonlocal, available since Python 3.0, is an analogue of global for nested scopes. It enables a nested function of assign-modify a variable that is local to the outer function.
An example:
# Requires Python 3 def outer(): outerint = 0 outerint2 = 10 def inner(): nonlocal outerint outerint = 1 # Impacts outer's outerint only because of the nonlocal declaration outerint2 = 1 # No impact inner() print(outerint) print(outerint2) outer()
Simulation of nonlocal in Python 2 via a mutable object:
def outer(): outerint = [1] # Technique 1: Store int in a list class outerNL: pass # Technique 2: Store int in a class outerNL.outerint2 = 11 def inner(): outerint[0] = 2 # List members can be modified outerNL.outerint2 = 12 # Class members can be modified inner() print outerint[0] print outerNL.outerint2 outer()

globals and localsEdit
To find out which variables exist in the global and local scopes, you can use locals() and globals() functions, which return dictionaries:
int1 = 1 def test1(): int1 = 2 globals()["int1"] = 3 # Write access seems possible print locals()["int1"] # 2 test1() print int1 # 3
Write access to locals() dictionary is discouraged by the Python documentation.

Input and output
InputEditEdit
File ObjectsEdit("testEdit.)
Parsing command lineEdit
Command-line arguments passed to a Python program are stored in sys.argv list. The first item in the list is name of the Python program, which may or may not contain the full path depending on the manner of invocation. sys.argv list is modifiable.
Printing all passed arguments except for the program name itself:
import sys for arg in sys.argv[1:]: print arg
Parsing passed arguments for passed minus options:
import sys option_f = False option_p = False option_p_argument = "" i = 1 while i < len(sys.argv): if sys.argv[i] == "-f": option_f = True sys.argv.pop(i) elif sys.argv[i] == "-p": option_p = True sys.argv.pop(i) option_p_argument = sys.argv.pop(i) else: i += 1
Above, the arguments at which options are found are removed so that sys.argv can be looped for all remaining arguments.
Parsing of command-line arguments is further supported by library modules optparse (deprecated), argparse (since Python 2.7) and getopt (to make life easy for C programmers).

FormattingEdit
Formatting numbers and other values as strings using the string percent operator:
v1 = "Int: %i" % 4 # 4 v2 = "Int zero padded: %03i" % 4 # 004 v3 = "Int space padded: %3i" % 4 # 4 v4 = "Hex: %x" % 31 # 1f v5 = "Hex 2: %X" % 31 # 1F - capitalized F v6 = "Oct: %o" % 8 # 10 v7 = "Float: %f" % 2.4 # 2.400000 v8 = "Float: %.2f" % 2.4 # 2.40 v9 = "Float in exp: %e" % 2.4 # 2.400000e+00 vA = "Float in exp: %E" % 2.4 # 2.400000E+00 vB = "List as string: %s" % [1, 2, 3] vC = "Left padded str: %10s" % "cat" vD = "Right padded str: %-10s" % "cat" vE = "Truncated str: %.2s" % "cat" vF = "Dict value str: %(age)s" % {"age": 20} vG = "Char: %c" % 65 # A vH = "Char: %c" % "A" # A
Formatting numbers and other values as strings using the format() string method, since Python 2.6:
v1 = "Arg 0: {0}".format(31) # 31 v2 = "Args 0 and 1: {0}, {1}".format(31, 65) v3 = "Args 0 and 1: {}, {}".format(31, 65) v4 = "Arg indexed: {0[0]}".format(["e1", "e2"]) v5 = "Arg named: {a}".format(a=31) v6 = "Hex: {0:x}".format(31) # 1f v7 = "Hex: {:x}".format(31) # 1f - arg 0 is implied v8 = "Char: {0:c}".format(65) # A v9 = "Hex: {:{h}}".format(31, h="x") # 1f - nested evaluation
Formatting numbers and other values as strings using literal string interpolation, since Python 3.6:
int1 = 31; int2 = 41; str1="aaa"; myhex = "x" v1 = f"Two ints: {int1} {int2}" v2 = f"Int plus 1: {int1+1}" # 32 - expression evaluation v3 = f"Str len: {len(str1)}" # 3 - expression evaluation v4 = f"Hex: {int1:x}" # 1f v5 = f"Hex: {int1:{myhex}}" # 1f - nested evaluation

Text
To get the length of a string, we use the len() function:
>>> len("Hello Wikibooks!") 16
You can slice strings just like lists and any other sequences:
>>> "Hello Wikibooks!"[0:5] 'Hello' >>> "Hello Wikibooks!"[5:11] ' Wikib' >>> "Hello Wikibooks!"[:5] #equivalent of [0:5] 'Hello'
To get the ASCII code of a character, use the
ord() function.
>>> ord('h') 104 >>> ord('a') 97 >>> ord('^') 94
To get the character encoded by an ASCII code number, use the
chr() function.
>>> chr(104) 'h' >>> chr(97) 'a' >>> chr(94) '^'To know if all the characters present in a string are alphanumeric i.e. they are alphabets and numeric, use the
isalnum()function. It returns true if there is at least one character present in the string and all the characters present are alphanumeric.
To know if all the characters present in a string are pure alphabets, use the
isalpha() function. It returns true if there is at least one character present in the string and all the characters present are alphabetic.
ExampleEdit
stringparser.py
# Add each character, and it's ordinal, of user's text input, to two lists s = input("Enter value: ") # this line requires Python 3.x, use raw_input() instead of input() in Python 2.x l1 = [] l2 = [] for c in s: # in Python, a string is just a sequence, so we can iterate over it! l1.append(c) l2.append(ord(c)) print(l1) print(l2)
Or shorter (using list comprehension instead of the for block):
# Add each character, and it's ordinal, of user's text input, to two lists s = input("Enter value: ") # this line requires Python 3.x, use raw_input() instead of input() in Python 2.x l1=[c for c in s] # in Python, a string is just a sequence, so we can iterate over it! l2=[ord(c) for c in s] print(l1) print(l2)
Output:
Enter value: string ['s', 't', 'r', 'i', 'n', 'g'] [115, 116, 114, 105, 110, 103]
Or
Enter value: Hello, Wikibooks! ['H', 'e', 'l', 'l', 'o', ',', ' ', 'W', 'i', 'k', 'i', 'b', 'o', 'o', 'k', 's', '!'] [72, 101, 108, 108, 111, 44, 32, 87, 105, 107, 105, 98, 111, 111, 107, 115, 33]
ExercisesEdit
- Use Python to determine the difference in ASCII code between lowercase and upper case letters.
- Write a program that converts a lowercase letter to an upper case letter using the ASCII code. (Note that there are better ways to do this, but you should do it once using the ASCII code to get a feel for how the language works)Edit.

Why a mandatory argument?Edit
In a normal function, if you were to set a variable, such as
test = 23, you could not access the test variable. Typing
test would say it is not defined. This is true in class functions unless they use the
self variable.
Basically, in the previous example, if we were to remove self.x, function bar could not do anything because it could not access x. The x in setx() would disappear. The self argument saves the variable into the class's "shared variables" database.
Why self?Edit
You do not need to use self. However, it is a norm to use self.
Why use classes?Edit
Classes are special due to the fact once an instance is made, the instance is independent of all other instances. I could have tow instances, each with a different x value, and they will not affect the other's x.
f = Foo() f.setx(324) f.boo() g = Foo() g.setx(100) g.boo()
f.boo() and
g.boo() will print different values. support for inheritance. Inheritance is a simple concept by which a class can extend the facilities of another class, or in Python's case, multiple other classes. Use the following format for this:
class ClassName(BaseClass1, BaseClass2, BaseClass3,...): ...
ClassName is what is known as the derived class, that is, derived from the base classes. The derived class will then have all the members of its base classes. If a method is defined in the derived class and in the base class, the member in the derived class will override the one in the base class. In order to use the method defined in the base class,).
Multiple inheritanceEdit
As shown in section #Inheritance, a class can be derived from multiple classes:
class ClassName(BaseClass1, BaseClass2, BaseClass3): pass
A tricky part about multiple inheritance is method resolution: upon a method call, if the method name is available from multiple base classes or their base classes, which base class method should be called.
The method resolution order depends on whether the class is an old-style class or a new-style class. For old-style classes, derived classes are considered from left to right, and base classes of base classes are considered before moving to the right. Thus, above, BaseClass1 is considered first, and if method is not found there, the base classes of BaseClass1 are considered. If that fails, BaseClass2 is considered, then its base classes, and so on. For new-style classes, see the Python documentation online.

__enter__ and __exit__Edit
These methods are also a constructor and a destructor but they're only executed when the class is instantiated with
with. Example:
class ConstructorsDestructors: def __init__(self): print 'init' def __del__(self): print 'del' def __enter__(self): print 'enter' def __exit__(self, exc_type, exc_value, traceback): print 'exit' with ConstructorsDestructors(): pass

Exceptions
Python 2 handles all errors with exceptions.
An exception is a signal that an error or other unusual condition has occurred. There are a number of built-in exceptions, which indicate conditions like reading past the end of a file, or dividing by zero. You can also define your own exceptions.
OverviewEdit
Exceptions in Python at a glance:
import random try: ri = random.randint(0, 2) if ri == 0: infinity = 1/0 elif ri == 1: raise ValueError("Message") #raise ValueError, "Message" # Deprecated elif ri == 2: raise ValueError # Without message except ZeroDivisionError: pass except ValueError as valerr: # except ValueError, valerr: # Deprecated? print valerr raise # Raises the exception just caught except: # Any other exception pass finally: # Optional pass # Clean up class CustomValueError(ValueError): pass # Custom exception try: raise CustomValueError raise TypeError except (ValueError, TypeError): # Value error catches custom, a derived class, as well pass # A tuple catches multiple exception classes
Raising exceptionsEdit
Whenever your program attempts to do something erroneous or meaningless, Python raises exception to such conduct:
>>> 1 / 0 Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in ? ZeroDivisionError: integer division or modulo by zero
This traceback indicates that the
ZeroDivisionError exception is being raised. This is a built-in exception -- see below for a list of all the other ones.
Catching exceptionsEdit
In order to handle errors, you can set up exception handling blocks in your code. The keywords
try and
except are used to catch exceptions. When an error occurs within the
try block, Python looks for a matching
except block to handle it. If there is one, execution jumps there.
If you execute this code:
try: print 1/0 except ZeroDivisionError: print "You can't divide by zero!"
Then Python will print this:
You can't divide by zero!
If you don't specify an exception type on the
except line, it will cheerfully catch all exceptions. This is generally a bad idea in production code, since it means your program will blissfully ignore unexpected errors as well as ones which the
except block is actually prepared to handle.
Exceptions can propagate up the call stack:
def f(x): return g(x) + 1 def g(x): if x < 0: raise ValueError, "I can't cope with a negative number here." else: return 5 try: print f(-6) except ValueError: print "That value was invalid."
In this code, the
f. That function calls the function
g, which will raise an exception of type ValueError. Neither
f nor
g has a
try/
except block to handle ValueError. So the exception raised propagates out to the main code, where there is an exception-handling block waiting for it. This code prints:
That value was invalid.
Sometimes it is useful to find out exactly what went wrong, or to print the python error text yourself. For example:
try: the_file = open("the_parrot") except IOError, (ErrorNumber, ErrorMessage): if ErrorNumber == 2: # file not found print "Sorry, 'the_parrot' has apparently joined the choir invisible." else: print "Congratulation! you have managed to trip a #%d error" % ErrorNumber print ErrorMessage
Which of course will print:
Sorry, 'the_parrot' has apparently joined the choir invisible.
Custom ExceptionsEdit
Code similar to that seen above can be used to create custom exceptions and pass information along with them. This can be very useful when trying to debug complicated projects. Here is how that code would look; first creating the custom exception class:
class CustomException(Exception): def __init__(self, value): self.parameter = value def __str__(self): return repr(self.parameter)
And then using that exception:
try: raise CustomException("My Useful Error Message") except CustomException, (instance): print "Caught: " + instance.parameter
Trying over and over againEdit
Recovering and continuing with
finallyEdit
Exceptions could lead to a situation where, after raising an exception, the code block where the exception occurred might not be revisited. In some cases this might leave external resources used by the program in an unknown state.
finally clause allows programmers to close such resources in case of an exception. Between 2.4 and 2.5 version of python there is change of syntax for
finally clause.
- Python 2.4
try: result = None try: result = x/y except ZeroDivisionError: print "division by zero!" print "result is ", result finally: print "executing finally clause"
- Python 2.5
try: result = x / y except ZeroDivisionError: print "division by zero!" else: print "result is", result finally: print "executing finally clause"
Built-in exception classesEdit
All built-in Python exceptions
Exotic uses of exceptionsEdit
Exceptions are good for more than just error handling. If you have a complicated piece of code to choose which of several courses of action to take, it can be useful to use exceptions to jump out of the code as soon as the decision can be made. The Python-based mailing list software Mailman does this in deciding how a message should be handled. Using exceptions like this may seem like it's a sort of GOTO -- and indeed it is, but a limited one called an escape continuation. Continuations are a powerful functional-programming tool and it can be useful to learn them.
Just as a simple example of how exceptions make programming easier, say you want to add items to a list but you don't want to use "if" statements to initialize the list we could replace this:
if hasattr(self, 'items'): self.items.extend(new_items) else: self.items = list(new_items)
Using exceptions, we can emphasize the normal program flow—that usually we just extend the list—rather than emphasizing the unusual case:
try: self.items.extend(new_items) except AttributeError: self.items = list(new_items)

Context Managers
A basic issue in programming is resource management: a resource is anything in limited supply, notably file handles, network sockets, locks, etc., and a key problem is making sure these are released after they are acquired. If they are not released, you have a resource leak, and the system may slow down or crash. More generally, you may want cleanup actions to always be done, other than simply releasing resources.
Python provides special syntax for this in the
with statement, which automatically manages resources encapsulated within context manager types, or more generally performs startup and cleanup actions around a block of code. You should always use a
with statement for resource management. There are many built-in context manager types, including the basic example of
File, and it is easy to write your own. The code is not hard, but the concepts are slightly subtle, and it is easy to make mistakes.
Basic resource managementEdit
Basic resource management uses an explicit pair of
open()...close() functions, as in basic file opening and closing. Don’t do this, for the reasons we are about to explain:
f = open(filename) # ... f.close()
The key problem with this simple code is that it fails if there is an early return, either due to a
return statement or an exception, possibly raised by called code. To fix this, ensuring that the cleanup code is called when the block is exited, one uses a
try...finally clause:
f = open(filename) try: # ... finally: f.close()
However, this still requires manually releasing the resource, which might be forgotten, and the release code is distant from the acquisition code. The release can be done automatically by instead using
with, which works because
File is a context manager type:
with open(filename) as f: # ...
This assigns the value of
open(filename) to
f (this point is subtle and varies between context managers), and then automatically releases the resource, in this case calling
f.close(), when the block exits.
Technical detailsEdit
Newer objects are context managers (formally context manager types: subtypes, as they implement the context manager interface, which consists of
__enter__(), __exit__()), and thus can be used in
with statements easily (see With Statement Context Managers).
For older file-like objects that have a
close method but not
__exit__(), you can use the
@contextlib.closing decorator. If you need to roll your own, this is very easy, particularly using the
@contextlib.contextmanager decorator.[1]
Context managers work by calling
__enter__() when the
with context is entered, binding the return value to the target of
as, and calling
__exit__() when the context is exited. There’s some subtlety about handling exceptions during exit, but you can ignore it for simple use.
More subtly,
__init__() is called when an object is created, but
__enter__() is called when a
with context is entered.
The
__init__()/__enter__() distinction is important to distinguish between single use, reusable and reentrant context managers. It’s not a meaningful distinction for the common use case of instantiating an object in the
with clause, as follows:
with A() as a: ...
…in which case any single use context manager is fine.
However, in general it is a difference, notably when distinguishing a reusable context manager from the resource it is managing, as in here:
a_cm = A() with a_cm as a: ...
Putting resource acquisition in
__enter__() instead of
__init__() gives a reusable context manager.
Notably,
File() objects do the initialization in
__init__() and then just returns itself when entering a context, as in
def __enter__(): return self. This is fine if you want the target of the
as to be bound to an object (and allows you to use factories like
open as the source of the
with clause), but if you want it to be bound to something else, notably a handle (file name or file handle/file descriptor), you want to wrap the actual object in a separate context manager. For example:
@contextmanager def FileName(*args, **kwargs): with File(*args, **kwargs) as f: yield f.name
For simple uses you don’t need to do any
__init__() code, and only need to pair
__enter__()/__exit__(). For more complicated uses you can have reentrant context managers, but that’s not necessary for simple use.
CaveatsEdit
try...finallyEdit
Note that a
try...finally clause is necessary with
@contextlib.contextmanager, as this does not catch any exceptions raised after the
yield, but is not necessary in
__exit__(), which is called even if an exception is raised.
Context, not scopeEdit

Performance
Since Python is an interpreted language in its most commonly used CPython implementation, it is many times slower in a variety of tasks than the most commonly used compiled non-managed languages such as C and C++; for some tasks, it is more than 100 times slower. CPython seems to be somewhat slower than Perl, another interpreted language, in multiple tasks.
Peformance can be measured using benchmarks. Benchmarks are often far from representative of the real-world usage and have to be taken with a grain of salt. Some benchmarks are outright wrong in that non-idiomatic code is used for a language, yielding avoidably low performance for the language.
PyPy is a just-in-time (JIT) compiler that often runs faster than CPython. Another compiler that can lead to greater speeds is Numba, which works for a subset of Python. Yeat another compiler is Cython, not to be confused with CPython.

Matching and searchingEditEditEditEdit
The split function splits a string based on a given regular expression:
>>> import re >>>>> re.split(r'\d\.', mystring) ['', ' First part ', ' Second part ', ' Third part']
EscapingEditEdit
The different flags use with regular expressions:

External commands
The traditional way of executing external commands is using os.system():
import os os.system("dir") os.system("echo Hello") exitCode = os.system("echotypo")
The modern way, since Python 2.4, is using subprocess module:
subprocess.call(["echo", "Hello"]) exitCode = subprocess.call(["dir", "nonexistent"])
The traditional way of executing external commands and reading their output is via popen2 module:
import popen2 readStream, writeStream, errorStream = popen2.popen3("dir") # allLines = readStream.readlines() for line in readStream: print line.rstrip() readStream.close() writeStream.close() errorStream.close()
The modern way, since Python 2.4, is using subprocess module:
import subprocess process = subprocess.Popen(["echo","Hello"], stdout=subprocess.PIPE) for line in process.stdout: print line.rstrip()
Keywords: system commands, shell commands, processes, backtick, pipe.

XML Tools
IntroductionEdit
Python includes several modules for manipulating xml.
xml.sax.handlerEdit
import xml.sax.handler as saxhandler import xml.sax as saxparser class MyReport: def __init__(self): self.Y = 1 class MyCH(saxhandler.ContentHandler): def __init__(self, report): self.X = 1 self.report = report def startDocument(self): print 'startDocument' def startElement(self, name, attrs): print 'Element:', name report = MyReport() #for future use ch = MyCH(report) <writer>Neil Gaiman</writer> <penciller pages='1-9,18-24'>Glyn Dillon</penciller> <penciller pages="10-17">Charles Vess</penciller> </comic> </collection> """ print xml saxparser.parseString(xml, ch)
xml.dom.minidomEdit
An example of doing RSS feed parsing with DOM
from xml.dom import minidom as dom import urllib2 def fetchPage(url): a = urllib2.urlopen(url) return ''.join(a.readlines()) def extract(page): a = dom.parseString(page) item = a.getElementsByTagName('item') for i in item: if i.hasChildNodes(): t = i.getElementsByTagName('title')[0].firstChild.wholeText l = i.getElementsByTagName('link')[0].firstChild.wholeText d = i.getElementsByTagName('description')[0].firstChild.wholeText print t, l, d if __name__=='__main__': page = fetchPage("") extract(page)

What is the equivalent of __FILE__ and __LINE__ in C#?
Where is __LINE__ and __FILE__ in C#?
In C++ and in PHP and other languages, a great logging feature is the ability to log the file and line number where the log occurs.
These unfortunately do not exist. I have been searching even in the latest .NET 4.0 and haven’t found them. If they are there, they are hidden. Having these two variables is an extremely useful feature in other languages and it appears to be a feature very overlooked by the C# developers. However, maybe they didn’t overlook it. Maybe there is a good reason that it is not there.
Getting __LINE__ and __FILE__ in C# when in debugging mode
There were a couple of solutions floating around online but many of them only worked with debugging enabled (or in release if the pdb file is in the same directory).
Here is one example that only works in debugging (or in release if the pdb file is in the same directory).
StackHelper.cs
using System; using System.Diagnostics; namespace FileAndLineNumberInCSharpLog { public static class StackHelper { public static String ReportError(string Message) { // Get the frame one step up the call tree StackFrame CallStack = new StackFrame(1, true); // These will now show the file and line number of the ReportError string SourceFile = CallStack.GetFileName(); int SourceLine = CallStack.GetFileLineNumber(); return "Error: " + Message + "\nFile: " + SourceFile + "\nLine: " + SourceLine.ToString(); } public static int __LINE__ { get { StackFrame CallStack = new StackFrame(1, true); int line = new int(); line += CallStack.GetFileLineNumber(); return line; } } public static string __FILE__ { get { StackFrame CallStack = new StackFrame(1, true); string temp = CallStack.GetFileName(); String file = String.Copy(String.IsNullOrEmpty(temp)?"":temp); return String.IsNullOrEmpty(file) ? "": file; } } } }
Here is a little Program.cs that shows how to use it.
using System; namespace FileAndLineNumberInCSharpLog { class Program { static void Main(string[] args) { int x = 100; int y = 200; int z = x * y; Console.WriteLine(StackHelper.ReportError("New Error")); } } }
Unfortunately if the above does only work in release if the pdb file is available.
Getting __LINE__ and __FILE__ in C# when in debugging mode
Well, according to this MSDN forum post, it simply cannot be done.
If I ever find a way to do it, I will post it.
So for troubleshooting a production file at a customer’s site, you pretty much have to send out your pdb file to them when they need it. There are a lot of benefits to C# and this lacking feature is one of the eye sores. | https://www.wpfsharp.com/2010/10/26/what-is-the-equivalent-of-__file__-and-__line__-in-c/ | CC-MAIN-2021-31 | refinedweb | 419 | 65.73 |
