242 | **Goal**: I aim to use t-SNE (t-distributed Stochastic Neighbor Embedding) in R for dimensionality reduction of my training data (with *N* observations and *K* variables, where *K>>N*) and subsequently aim to come up with the t-SNE representation for my test data.
**Example**: Suppose I aim to reduce the K variables to *D=2* dimensions (often, *D=2* or *D=3* for t-SNE). There are two R packages: `Rtsne` and `tsne`, while I use the former here.
```
# load packages
library(Rtsne)
# Generate Training Data: random standard normal matrix with J=400 variables and N=100 observations
x.train <- matrix(nrom(n=40000, mean=0, sd=1), nrow=100, ncol=400)
# Generate Test Data: random standard normal vector with N=1 observation for J=400 variables
x.test <- rnorm(n=400, mean=0, sd=1)
# perform t-SNE
set.seed(1)
fit.tsne <- Rtsne(X=x.train, dims=2)
```
where the command `fit.tsne$Y` will return the (100x2)-dimensional object containing the t-SNE representation of the data; can also be plotted via `plot(fit.tsne$Y)`.
**Problem**: Now, what I am looking for is a function that returns a prediction `pred` of dimension (1x2) for my test data based on the trained t-SNE model. Something like,
```
# The function I am looking for (but doesn't exist yet):
pred <- predict(object=fit.tsne, newdata=x.test)
```

So you can't directly apply new data points. However, you can fit a multivariate regression model between your data and the embedded dimensions. The author recognizes that it's a limitation of the method and suggests this way to get around it. |

```

ScopedExit(std::function<R(Args...)> exitFunction)
{
exitFunc_ = exitFunction;

};
int main()
{
Bar b;
std::cout << "Register scoped exit func\n";
{

So, there are a couple of questions:
1. How to pass exit's function arguments to it? For example, I bind BarExitFunc with two integer arguments: 18 and 11. So how can I pass it to the exitFunc\_ in the destructor? I think I need something like invoke function with std::forward<>.

I can see no reason whatsoever to pass arguments to `exitFunc_` at call time in the destructor. Whatever you do, you'll have to provide those arguments upfront in the `ScopedExit` constructor anyway.
The most straightforward way is simply to use a `function<R()>` and `bind` any required arguments at the definition site like you're already doing:
```
ScopedExit<R> guard(std::bind(someFunction, someArg, otherArg));
```
This allows you to get rid of the variadic template arguments altogether and simplifies your template *a lot*.
---
Now, if what is bothering you is that you have to type `std::bind` and you would rather use such a syntax:
```
ScopedExit<R> guard(someFunction, someArg, otherArg);
```
Really, I don't see the point since it makes the template more complicated, but why not... Just bind/forward the arguments in the constructor itself and still store a `function<R()>`:
```
template<typename... Args>
ScopedExit(std::function<R(Args...)> exitFunction, Args&&... args)
{
exitFunc_ = std::bind(exitFunction, std::forward<Args>(args)...);
}
```
Now you systematically `bind` the function even if there are no arguments to bind, so you may want to specialize your class to avoid this useless `bind` when there are no arguments. This is left as an exercise.
---

This is because `foo` isn't a `std::function` and the compiler can't deduce the correct template arguments. As already mentioned by @ForEveR you could just define your guard variable as `ScopedExit<void> guard(foo);`.
Or, **wrapping it all up** and keeping in mind what I first said (`bind` is best left out of your template and used at the definition site of your guard) you could just get rid of `std::function` in the constructor and generalize for any functor (which, BTW, is how the Standard library does whenever it needs a functor/callback). For storage you can just use `std::function<void()>` since it accepts non-void return types too:
```
class ScopedExit
{
public:
template<typename Functor>
ScopedExit(Functor exitFunction)
{
exitFunc_ = exitFunction;
}
~ScopedExit()
{
exitFunc_();
}
private:
std::function<void()> exitFunc_;
};
int foo() { return 0; }
struct Bar {
void bye(int, int) {}
};
struct Baz {
void operator ()() {}
};
int main() {
const std::string what = "lambda!";
ScopedExit guard1([&]() { std::cout << "yay a " << what << std::endl; });
ScopedExit guard2(foo); // note how std::function<void()> accepts non-void return types
Bar b;
ScopedExit guard3(std::bind(&Bar::bye, &b, 1, 2));
ScopedExit guard4(Baz());
}
```
Note how your original variadic template class has now become a flexible non-template class with just a templated constructor whose template argument is deduced automatically, and which accepts almost[see note below] any kind of functor you can think about.
---
**Note:** I said *almost* any functor because this doesn't work with default arguments:
```
void foobar(int = 0) {}
ScopedExit guard5(foobar); // error: too few arguments to function
```
Even if you stored a `Functor` directly instead of a `std::function<void()>` you wouldn't be able to make use of the default arguments anyway (the signature of `foobar` is still `void(int)` even with a default argument) so one always has to handle this corner-case at the definition site with something like:
```
void foobar(int = 0) {}
ScopedExit guard5([]() { foobar(); });
``` |

``` | Your `User` class is not implementing `interface IObserver` and therefore is not forced to have the method `update()`.
You have to instantiate a `new User()` in order to add it to the `UsersLibrary`:
```

$library->add($user);

try:
proc = subprocess.Popen(args=["ipython", "-i"], stdin=subprocess.PIPE, stdout=subprocess.PIPE, universal_newlines=True)
# Delimiter to know when to stop reading
OUTPUT_DELIMITER = ":::EOL:::"
# Variable to contain the entire interaction:
output_string = ""
# Open testfile.py
with open("testfile.py") as file_:
for line in file_:
# Read command
cmd = line.rstrip()
# Add the command to the output string
output_string += cmd + "\n"
proc.stdin.write(f"{cmd}\n")
# Print the delimiter so we know when to end:
proc.stdin.write('print("{}")\n'.format(OUTPUT_DELIMITER))
proc.stdin.flush()
# Start reading output from ipython
while True:
thisoutput = proc.stdout.readline()
thisoutput = thisoutput.rstrip()
# Now check if it's the delimiter
if thisoutput.find(OUTPUT_DELIMITER) >= 0:
break
output_string += thisoutput + "\n"
except Exception as e:
proc.stdout.close()
proc.stdin.close()
raise
proc.stdout.close()
proc.stdin.close()
print("-" * 4 + "START OUTPUT" + "-" * 4)
print(output_string)
print("-" * 4 + "END OUTPUT" + "-" * 4)
```
In this approach, the problem becomes indented blocks, like the `for` loop.

1859 | Haskell does not have loops like many other languages. I understand the reasoning behind it and some of the different approaches used to solve problems without them. However, when a loop structure is necessary, I am not sure if the way I'm creating the loop is correct/good.
For example (trivial function):
```
dumdum = do
putStrLn "Enter something"
num <- getLine
putStrLn $ "You entered: " ++ num
dumdum
```
This works fine, but is there a potential problem in the code?
A different example:
```
a = do
putStrLn "1"
putStrLn "2"
a
```
If implemented in an imperative language like Python, it would look like:
```python
def a():
print ("1")
print ("2")
a()
```
This eventually causes a maximum recursion depth error. This does not seem to be the case in Haskell, but I'm not sure if it might cause potential problems.
I know there are other options for creating loops such as `Control.Monad.LoopWhile` and `Control.Monad.forever` -- should I be using those instead? (I am still very new to Haskell and do not understand monads yet.) | For general iteration, having a recursive function call itself is definitely the way to go. If your calls are in [tail position](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tail_call), they don't use any extra stack space and behave more like `goto`1. For example, here is a function to sum the first n integers using constant stack space2:
```
sum :: Int -> Int
sum n = sum' 0 n
sum' !s 0 = s
sum' !s n = sum' (s+n) (n-1)
```
It is roughly equivalent to the following pseudocode:
```
function sum(N)
var s, n = 0, N
loop:
if n == 0 then
return s
else
s,n = (s+n, n-1)
goto loop
```
Notice how in the Haskell version we used function parameters for the sum accumulator instead of a mutable variable. This is very common pattern for tail-recursive code.
So far, general recursion with tail-call-optimization should give you all the looping power of gotos. The only problem is that manual recursion (kind of like gotos, but a little better) is relatively unstructured and we often need to carefully read code that uses it to see what is going on. Just like how imperative languages have looping mechanisms (for, while, etc) to describe most common iteration patterns, in Haskell we can use higher order functions to do a similar job. For example, many of the list processing functions like `map` or `foldl'`3 are analogous to straightforward for-loops in pure code and when dealing with monadic code there are functions in Control.Monad or in the [monad-loops](http://hackage.haskell.org/package/monad-loops) package that you can use. In the end, its a matter of style but I would err towards using the higher order looping functions.
---
1 You might want to check out ["Lambda the ultimate GOTO"](http://library.readscheme.org/page1.html), a classical article about how tail recursion can be as efficient as traditional iteration. Additionally, since Haskell is a lazy languages, there are also some situations where recursion at non-tail positions can still run in O(1) space (search for "Tail recursion modulo cons")
2 Those exclamation marks are there to make the accumulator parameter be eagerly evaluated, so the addition happens at the same time as the recursive call (Haskell is lazy by default). You can omit the "!"s if you want but then you run the risk of running into a [space leak](http://www.haskell.org/haskellwiki/Foldr_Foldl_Foldl%27).
3 Always use `foldl'` instead of `foldl`, due to the previously mentioned space leak issue. |

3186 | I use a `entity` form type to provide a list of `Position` entities in a form. I use it often enough (each with the same "setup" code to customize it) that I've decided to make a custom form type from it for better re-use.
Here's the current form type:
```
class PositionType extends AbstractType
{
private $om;
public function __construct(ObjectManager $om, $mode)
{
$this->om = $om;
}
public function buildForm(FormBuilderInterface $builder, array $options)
{
}
public function setDefaultOptions(OptionsResolverInterface $resolver)
{
// I need to pass "mode" as an option when building the form.
$mode = ???
$query_builder = function (EntityRepository $em) use ($mode) {
// Limit the positions returned based on the editing mode
return $em
->createQueryBuilder('Position')
->orderBy('Position.name')
->leftJoin('Position.type', 'Type')
->andWhere('Type.id IN (:ids)')
->setParameter('ids', Type::typesForMode($mode))
;
};
$resolver
->setRequired(array('mode'))
->setDefaults(array(
'label' => 'Position',
'class' => 'AcmeBundle:Position',
'property' => 'name',
'query_builder' => $query_builder,
'empty_value' => '',
'empty_data' => null,
'constraints' => array(
new NotBlank(),
),
))
;
}
public function getParent()
{
return 'entity';
}
public function getName()
{
return 'position';
}
}
```
Don't worry about the specifics in the query builder, that doesn't matter. The part that does matter is I'm trying to use a form type option in the query builder.
How can I do this? The problem is I can't use `$mode` (the option I want to pass to alter the query builder) in `setDefaultOptions`.
I was beginning to look for a way to set the query builder from inside `buildForm` but I'm not sure I can do that. | This is fairly easy to achieve. You can build an option that depends on another option.
[OptionResolver Component - Default Values that Depend on another Option](http://symfony.com/doc/current/components/options_resolver.html#default-values-that-depend-on-another-option)
Basically you will do:
```
$resolver
->setRequired(array('mode', 'em')) // "em" for EntityManager as well
->setDefaults(array(
'label' => 'Position',
'class' => 'AcmeBundle:Position',
'property' => 'name',
#####################################################
'query_builder' => function(Options $options){
// Obviously you will need to pass the EntityManager
$em = $options['em'];
// Limit the positions returned based on the editing mode
return $em
->createQueryBuilder('Position')
->orderBy('Position.name')
->leftJoin('Position.type', 'Type')
->andWhere('Type.id IN (:ids)')
->setParameter('ids', Type::typesForMode($options['mode'])) //
;
},
####################################
'empty_value' => '',
'empty_data' => null,
'constraints' => array(
new NotBlank(),
),
))
;
```
This is just a rough representation of what `OptionsResolver` can do. Hope it helps :) |
3266 | Suppose that a Tor client wants to access a certain hidden service. According to the protocol, instead of submitting a request directly to the server IP (which is hidden[1][2]), this client submit a request via a series of relays.
However, at some point, there will be a final relay in charge of delivering the client's message specifically to the server running the hidden service. In order to do so, this final relay must know the IP of this hidden server, otherwise the current internet infrastructure cannot deliver the message.
If the aforementioned steps are indeed correct, this means that in order to host a website using TOR Hidden Service you must reveal the IP address to a final relay. Therefore, Tor network does not hide the IP address of hidden services.
How to reconcile that? Am I missing something?

[2]: "The Tor network hides the IP address of hidden services, instead using onion addresses and public keys to keep the real location hidden.", [Privay.net](https://privacy.net/make-site-visible-dark-web-tor-hidden-services/) | Tor uses TCP tunnels, so - regardless of the previous answer - no need to use it. The hidden service is reached from the Tor node that is hosting it, usually through a localhost. The scenario you've described about IP revealing - yes, it *can* be a privacy problem. The design doc states clear - the system is anonymizing mostly the client, not the server - it's only rudimentary in a *standard* setup. To conceal your server IP use bridges-only for your hosting server(s) - that will elevate the privacy, but if you want both client and server to be equally anonymized - use I2P, not Tor - it's designed for exactly that purpose |

``` | Accepted answer is not an accessible solution.
----------------------------------------------
I have made some corrections and some observations here. Do not use the accepted answer in production if you stumble across this question in the future. It is an awful experience with a keyboard.
The answer below fixes some of the CSS issues to make it more accessible.
However **I would recommend you reconsider the no JavaScript requirement.**
I can understand having a good fall-back (which the example I give below with the fixes is) but there is no way you can make a fully accessible set of CSS only tabs.
Firstly you should use WAI-ARIA to complement your HTML to make things even more clear for screen readers. See the [tabs examples on W3C](http://%20https://www.w3.org/TR/wai-aria-practices/examples/tabs/tabs-1/tabs.html) to see what WAI-ARIA roles you should be using. This is NOT possible without JavaScript as states need to change (`aria-hidden` for example should change).
Secondly, you should be able to use certain shortcut keys. Press the `home` key for example in order to return to the first tab, something you can only do with a little JS help.
With that being said here are a few things I fixed with the accepted answer to at least give you a good starting point as your 'no JavaScript **fallback**'.
### Problem 1 - `tabindex` on the label.
By adding this you are creating a focusable element that cannot be activated via keyboard (you cannot press `space` or `Enter` on the label to change selection, unless you use JavaScript).
In order to fix this I simply removed the `tabindex` from the labels.
### Problem 2 - no focus indicators when navigating via keyboard.
In the example the tabs only work when you are focused on the radio buttons (which are hidden). However at this point there is no focus indicator as the styling is applying styling to the checkbox when it is focused and not to its label.
In order to fix this I adjusted the CSS with the following
```
/*make it so when the checkbox is focused we add a focus indicator to the label.*/
.tabs__input:focus + label {
outline: 2px solid #333;
}
```
Problem 3 - using the same state for `:hover` and `:focus` states.
------------------------------------------------------------------
This is another bad practice that needs to go away, always have a different way of showing hover and focus states. Some screen reader and screen magnifier users will use their mouse to check they have the correct item focused and orientate themselves on a page. Without a separate hover state it is difficult to check you are hovered over a focused item.
```
/*use a different colour background on hover, you should not use the same styling for hover and focus states*/
.tabs__label:hover{
background-color: #ccc;
}
```
Example
-------
In the example I have added a hyperlink at the top so you can see where your focus indicator is when using a keyboard.
When your focus indicator is on one of the two tabs you can press the arrow keys to change tab (which is expected behaviour) and the focus indicator will adjust accordingly to make it clear which tab was selected.
```css
.tabs {
background-color: #eee;
min-height: 400px;
}
.tabs__list {
border-bottom: 1px solid black;
display: flex;
flex-direction: row;
list-style: none;
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
position: relative;
}
.tabs__tab {
padding: 0.5rem;
}
.tabs__content {
display: none;
left: 0;
padding: 0.5rem;
position: absolute;
top: 100%;
}
.tabs__input {
position: fixed;
top:-100px;
}
.tabs__input+label {
cursor: pointer;
}
.tabs__label:hover{
background-color: #ccc;
}
.tabs__input:focus + label {
outline: 2px solid #333;
}
.tabs__input:checked+label {
color: red;
}
.tabs__input:checked~.tabs__content {
display: block;
}
```

3578 | Can anybody help in knowing whether IFC entity type names are case sensitive or case insensitive.
For example: Can we replace `IFCPERSON` with `IfcPerson` (camel case) or `ifcperson` (small) in an \*.ifc file? | How about applying the following convention in every single context:
Simply assume that they are case sensitive and work accordingly.
If you always do that, you will never have a problem.
If you see different casing examples, and all of them work, you can assume it is not case sensitive.
Otherwise, you will always be on the safe side if you simply follow the case conventions that you see and are proven.
Furthermore, you should always implement unit tests for every piece of functionality.

For example, make 256 folders each named after the first byte and only store there files that have a GUID starting with this byte.

5614 | I'm having some trouble with a problem in linear algebra:
Let $A$ be a matrix with dimensions $m \times n$ and $B$ also a matrix but with dimensions $n \times m$ which is **not** a null matrix. (That's all that's written - I assume A may or may not be a null matrix).
Given that $AB=0$:
1. Prove there is a non-trivial solution to the system of equations $Ax=0$
2. Assume $A\neq0$ . Does the system $Bx=0$ also have a non-trivial solution? If so, prove the argument. If not, provide a contradictory example.
There's a third part to the question but I managed to solve it and its content isn't really relevant here because it provided us a defined $A$ of real numbers, but I'm pretty lost with the first two arguments - I'm having trouble putting what I think into words. Can anyone help with this? Thanks!
EDIT:
Okay so I think I'm supposed to deal with the different cases of $m$ and $n$:
If $n > m$ obviously the system $Ax=0$ has infinite solutions because we'll have more variables than equations.
What I haven't quite figured out is how to prove that:
If $AB=0$ and $m=n$ or $m > n$, then it immediately follows that $Rank(A) < n$ .
Any help with this would be greatly appreciated. | Solved it.
1. If $AB=0$ that means that matrix $A$ multiplied by any column vector $b$ in $B$ will be equal to the zero vector. Since we know that $B\neq 0$, there must be at least one column vector $b$ in $B$ that **isn't** the zero vector. So to summarize, since $A$ multiplied by any column vector in $B$ returns 0 and we know there is a non-zero column vector in $B$, the system of equations $Ax=0$ has at least one non-trivial solution, where $x$ can be the zero vector or a non-zero vector from $B$.
2. I have found a contradictory example. Basically to disprove the argument I need to find matrices $A,B$ that meet the following criteria:
* $A\_{m\times n}, B\_{n\times m}$
* $A,B\neq0$
* $Bx=0$ **only** has a trivial solution
Here they are:
$$
A=\begin{bmatrix}
0&0&0&1\\
0&0&0&0\\
0&0&0&0
\end{bmatrix}\_{3\times 4}\ ,\
B=
\begin{bmatrix}
1&0&0\\
0&1&0\\
0&0&1\\
0&0&0
\end{bmatrix}
\\
$$
$$
A\_{m\times n}, B\_{n\times m}\ \ \checkmark
\\
A,B\neq 0\ \ \checkmark
\\
AB=0\ \ \checkmark
\\
Bx=0\rightarrow\ one\ solution\ \ \checkmark
$$
And there's a perfect contradictory example to the argument. |

5730 | my code broke somewhere along the way, and crashes when using the navigation bar buttons.
Error message:
`*** Terminating app due to uncaught exception 'NSInvalidArgumentException', reason: '-[UIView newMemoViewController:didAddMemo:]: unrecognized selector sent to instance 0x5b55a60'`
When debugging, the program does run the `cancel` method, and throws an exception at the `@synthesize` line. However, I cannot see anything wrong with it.
The symptoms are identical, so I am including the relevant code only for the `Cancel` button:
**NewMemoViewController.h**
```
#import <UIKit/UIKit.h>
@protocol NewMemoDelegate;
@class AKVoiceMemo;
@interface NewMemoViewController : UIViewController {
@private
AKVoiceMemo *voiceMemo;
id <NewMemoDelegate> delegate;
}
@property (nonatomic, retain) AKVoiceMemo *voiceMemo;
@property (nonatomic, assign) id <NewMemoDelegate> delegate;
@end
@protocol NewMemoDelegate <NSObject>
- (void)newMemoViewController:(NewMemoViewController *)newMemoViewController didAddMemo:(AKVoiceMemo *)voiceMemo;
@end
```
**NewMemoViewController.m**
```
#import "NewMemoViewController.h"
@synthesize delegate;
- (void)viewDidLoad {
UIBarButtonItem *cancelButtonItem = [[UIBarButtonItem alloc] initWithTitle:@"Cancel" style:UIBarButtonItemStyleBordered target:self action:@selector(cancel)];
self.navigationItem.leftBarButtonItem = cancelButtonItem;
[cancelButtonItem release];
}
- (void)cancel {
[self.delegate newMemoViewController:self didAddMemo:nil];
}
```
Your help would be appreciated.
**Edit**: the delegate is the `RootViewController`:
```
- (void)newMemoViewController:(NewMemoViewController *)newMemoViewController didAddMemo:(AKVoiceMemo *)voiceMemo {
if (voiceMemo){
// Show the note in a new view controller
// TODO: Implement this
}
[self dismissModalViewControllerAnimated:YES];
}
``` | You're probably setting the delegate of `NewMemoViewController` to a `UIView` object instead of an object that implements the `NewMemoDelegate` protocol.
The error message is telling you that a `newMemoViewController:didAddMemo:` message was sent to a `UIView` object and the `UIView` object didn't know what to do with it. Since your `cancel` method calls `newMemoViewController:didAddMemo:` on the delegate, it is the *delegate* which is the `UIView` object that doesn't recognize the `newMemoViewController:didAddMemo:` message. In other words, your delegate is a `UIView` and it doesn't implement the `NewMemoDelegate` protocol.
If you are correctly setting the delegate, then @jtbandes makes a great point: The delegate is probably being released and a `UIView` object is taking over the same memory location, thus "becoming" the delegate by accident. You're doing the right thing by using the `assign` attribute for your delegate; that's fairly standard Cocoa practice. However, you do need to make sure that the delegate is retained by another object, and *that* object needs to make sure that the delegate sticks around as long as `NewMemoViewController` needs it to. |
5828 | To explain my problem more easily I will create the following fictional example, illustrating a very basic many-to-many relationship. A **Car** can have many **Parts**, and a **Part** can belong to many **Cars**.
**DB SCHEMA:**
```
CAR_TABLE
---------
CarId
ModelName
CAR_PARTS_TABLE
---------------
CarId
PartId
PARTS_TABLE
-----------
PartId
PartName
```
**CLASSES:**
```
public class Car
{
public int CarId {get;set;}
public string Name {get;set;}
public IEnumerable<Part> Parts {get;set;}
}
public class Part
{
public int PartId {get;set;}
public string Name {get;set}
}
```
Using this very simple model I would like to get any cars that have all the parts assigned to them from a list of parts I am searching on.
So say I have an array of PartIds:
```
var partIds = new [] { 1, 3, 10};
```
I want to mimic the following c# code in terms of a database call:
```
var allCars = /* code to retrieve all cars */
var results = new List<Car>();
foreach (var car in allCars)
{
var containsAllParts = true;
foreach (var carPart in car.Parts)
{
if (false == partIds.Contains(carPart.PartId))
{
containsAllParts = false;
break;
}
}
if (containsAllParts)
{
results.Add(car);
}
}
return results;
```
To be clear: I want to get the Cars that have ALL of the Parts specified from the partIds array.
I have the following query, which is REALLY inefficient as it creates a subquery for each id within the partIds array and then does an IsIn query on each of their results. I am desperate to find a much more efficient manner to execute this query.
```
Car carAlias = null;
Part partAlias = null;
var searchCriteria = session.QueryOver<Car>(() => carAlias);
foreach (var partId in partIds)
{
var carsWithPartCriteria = QueryOver.Of<Car>(() => carAlias)
.JoinAlias(() => carAlias.Parts, () => partAlias)
.Where(() => partAlias.PartId == partId)
.Select(Projections.Distinct(Projections.Id()));
searchCriteria = searchCriteria
.And(Subqueries.WhereProperty(() => carAlias.Id).In(carsWithPartCriteria));
}
var results = searchCriteria.List<Car>();
```
Is there a decent way to execute this sort of query using NHibernate? | ```
Part partAlias=null;
Session.QueryOver<Car>().JoinQueryOver(x=>x.Parts,()=>partAlias)
.WhereRestrictionOn(()=>partAlias.Id).IsIn(partIds) //partIds should be implement an ICollection
.List<Car>();
```
Hope that helps. |

public Void traverseQuickestRoute(){ // Void return-type from interface
findShortCutThroughWoods()
.map(WoodsShortCut::getTerrainDifficulty)
.ifPresent(this::walkThroughForestPath) // return in this case
if(isBikePresent()){
return cycleQuickestRoute()
}
....
}
```
Is there a way to exit the method at the `ifPresent`?
In case it is not possible, for other people with similar use-cases: I see two alternatives
```
Optional<MappedRoute> woodsShortCut = findShortCutThroughWoods();
if(woodsShortCut.isPresent()){
TerrainDifficulty terrainDifficulty = woodsShortCut.get().getTerrainDifficulty();
return walkThroughForrestPath(terrainDifficulty);
}
```
This feels more ugly than it needs to be and combines if/else with functional programming.
A chain of `orElseGet(...)` throughout the method does not look as nice, but is also a possibility. | `return` is a control statement. Neither lambdas (arrow notation), nor method refs (`WoodsShortcut::getTerrainDifficulty`) support the idea of control statements that move control to outside of themselves.
Thus, the answer is a rather trivial: Nope.
You have to think of the stream 'pipeline' as the thing you're working on. So, the question could be said differently: Can I instead change this code so that I can modify how this one pipeline operation works (everything starting at `findShortCut()` to the semicolon at the end of all the method invokes you do on the stream/optional), and then make this one pipeline operation the whole method.
Thus, the answer is: **`orElseGet` is probably it.**
Disappointing, perhaps. 'functional' does not strike me as the right answer here. The problem is, there are things for/if/while loops can do that 'functional' cannot do. So, if you are faced with a problem that is simpler to tackle using 'a thing that for/if/while is good at but functional is bad at', then it is probably a better plan to just use for/if/while then.
One of the core things lambdas can't do are about the transparencies. Lambdas are non-transparant in regards to these 3:
* Checked exception throwing. `try { list.forEach(x -> throw new IOException()); } catch (IOException e) {}` isn't legal even though your human brain can trivially tell it should be fine.
* (Mutable) local variables. `int x = 5; list.forEach(y -> x += y);` does not work. Often there are ways around this (`list.mapToInt(Integer::intValue).sum()` in this example), but not always.
* Control flow. `list.forEach(y -> {if (y < 0) return y;});` does not work.
So, keep in mind, you really have only 2 options:
* Continually retrain yourself to not think in terms of such control flow. You find `orElseGet` 'not as nice'. I concur, but if you really want to blanket apply functional to as many places as you can possibly apply it, the whole notion of control flow out of a lambda needs not be your go-to plan, and you definitely can't keep thinking 'this code is not particularly nice because it would be simpler if I could control flow out', you're going to be depressed all day programming in this style. The day you never even think about it anymore is the day you have succeeded in retraining yourself to 'think more functional', so to speak.
* Stop thinking that 'functional is always better'. Given that there are so many situations where their downsides are so significant, perhaps it is not a good idea to pre-suppose that the lambda/methodref based solution must somehow be superior. Apply what seems correct. That should often be "Actually just a plain old for loop is fine. Better than fine; it's the right, most elegant1 answer here".
[1] "This code is elegant" is, of course, a non-falsifiable statement. It's like saying "The Mona Lisa is a pretty painting". You can't make a logical argument to prove this and it is insanity to try. "This code is elegant" boils down to saying "*I* think it is prettier", it cannot boil down to an objective fact. That also means in team situations there's no point in debating such things. Either everybody gets to decide what 'elegant' is (hold a poll, maybe?), or you install a dictator that decrees what elegance is. If you want to fix that and have meaningful debate, the term 'elegant' needs to be defined in terms of objective, falsifiable statements. I would posit that things like:
* in face of expectable future change requests, this style is easier to modify
* A casual glance at code leaves a first impression. Whichever style has the property that this first impression is accurate - is better (in other words, code that confuses or misleads the casual glancer is bad). Said even more differently: Code that really needs comments to avoid confusion is worse than code that is self-evident.
* this code looks familiar to a wide array of java programmers
* this code consists of fewer AST nodes (the more accurate from of 'fewer lines = better')
* this code has simpler semantic hierarchy (i.e. fewer indents)
Those are the kinds of things that should *define* 'elegance'. Under almost all of those definitions, 'an `if` statement' is as good or better in this specific case! |

``` | Josh,
Sorry your experience had been frustrating. I'm not at a computer at the moment but wanted to see if I could provide some help and will try to repro your scenario as soon as I can.
* All types that compose your function (either in a single or multiple .csx files) are compiled into a single assembly. So the error coming from EF is indeed puzzling.
* App.config is not supported in functions.
One approach you can try in the meantime (until we can find what is causing the issue you're running into), is to deploy your EF types and POCO as a separate assembly that you can then reference from your function. To do so, just copy that assembly into a bin folder under your function folder and add `#r "YourAssemblyName.dll"` to the top of your function file. Hopefully this will unblock you.
I'll post an update when I'm able to repro your scenario and have more information. |
8369 | I have a twist on a common question I've seen in here, and I'm puzzled.
What I need is simply a dialog box for each sub item of a list item. I have seen a dialog for a list item, but I need it down to the list item's item. Currently I've tried doing that within the adapter when inside the getView() method.
For example:
```
@Override
public View getView(int position, View convertView, ViewGroup parent)
{
View v = convertView;
if (v == null)
{
LayoutInflater li = (LayoutInflater) _context.getSystemService(Context.LAYOUT_INFLATER_SERVICE);
v = li.inflate(_resourceId, null);
}
string description = "howdy Test";
TextView description = (TextView) v.findViewById(R.id.description);
description.setText(description );
description.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener()
{
public void onClick(View view)
{
AlertDialog.Builder dia = new AlertDialog.Builder(view.getContext());
dia.setTitle(view.getContext().getResources().getString(R.string.DESCRIPTION_TITLE));
dia.create();
}
});
}
```
With that example above, it does go into the onClick() method, but nothing happens with the AlertDialog. Has anyone else tried this? is there a better way? Even better what am I doing wrong?
Thanks,

11052 | I am currently using apTreeshape to simulate phylogenetic trees using the "Yule-Hardy" Method. What I want to do is randomly generate between 20 and 25 different numbers for three different groupings (small, medium and large trees) and then generate about 40 trees for every random number chosen from within the grouping.
I know how I would do this in Python of Matlab, but in R things seem to behave a bit differently.
My thought was that if I were to generate a vector full of random numbers (one for each size grouping) and then use that to generate a vector which would basically contain all of the repeated values of each random number.
Here is what I have:
```
sm_leaves<-c(sample(3:50,25,replace=F));
s_leafy<-numeric();
for (i in 1:length(sm_leaves)) {
for (j in 1:10) {
s_leafy[j+i-1]=sm_leaves[i];
}
}
```
This is giving me output like:
```
> s_leafy
[1] 5 38 6 22 29 20 19 46 9 18 39 50 34 11 43 7 8 32 10 42 14 37
[23] 23 13 28 28 28 28 28 28 28 28 28 28
```
But What I want is something more like:
```
> s_leafy
[1] 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 38 38 38 38 38 38 38 38 38 ... 28 28 28 28 28 28 28 28 28 28
```
My reason for doing this is merely so that I can append this vector to a data frame along with all of the randomly generated trees - I need 2000 of them, so doing this by hand ain't quite practical.
All I have really been able to deduce from my previous attempts to solve this problem is that generally speaking while loops should be used instead of for loops, and many people have talked about using expand.grid, but I don't think that the latter is particularly useful in this case.
Thanks for reading, I hope my problem isn't too trivial (although I wouldn't be surprised if it were). | Apologies if I don't quite understand the question, but what about:

If you use `unsigned char` for your types for `c2` and `c1` then the implicit promotion to `int` for each term in your expression will have the effect you are after. |
11310 | Background:
* I have a short list of strings.
* The number of strings is not always the same, but are nearly always of the order of a “handful”
* In our database will store these strings in a 2nd normalised table
* These strings are **never** changed once they are written to the database.
We wish to be able to match on these strings quickly in a query without the performance hit of doing lots of joins.
So I am thinking of storing a hash code of all these strings in the main table and including it in our index, so the joins are only processed by the database when the hash code matches.
So how do I get a good hashcode? I could:
* Xor the hash codes of all the string together
* Xor with multiply the result after each string (say by 31)
* Cat all the string together then get the hashcode
* Some other way
So what do people think?
---
In the end I just concatenate the strings and compute the hashcode for the concatenation, as it is simple and worked well enough.

So String.GetHashcode() should not be used for this. | A SQL-based solution could be based on the checksum and checksum\_agg functions. If I'm following it right, you have something like:
```
MyTable
MyTableId
HashCode
MyChildTable
MyTableId (foreign key into MyTable)
String
```
with the various strings for a given item (MyTableId) stored in MyChildTable. To calculate and store a checksum reflecting these (never-to-be-changed) strings, something like this should work:
```
UPDATE MyTable
set HashCode = checksum_agg(checksum(string))
from MyTable mt
inner join MyChildTable ct
on ct.MyTableId = mt.MyTableId
where mt.MyTableId = @OnlyForThisOne
```
I believe this is order-independant, so strings "The quick brown" would produce the same checksum as "brown The quick". |

12446 | I'm studying for my AIRAT (Instructor Written) in Canada using Nizus, but I've always had trouble answering the questions about takeoff distances at 27 ºC when given [a chart](https://i.imgur.com/9HnYWR3.png) with 20 ºC and 30 ºC, even since the start of PPL. I want to understand it properly so I can effectively teach my students who have troubles with it.
The question is a two-parter, first calculating a takeoff distance with the following values:
| Parameter | Value |
| --- | --- |
| Airport Temp | 30 ºC |
| Airport Elevation | 3000' AMSL |
| Altimeter | 30.92 inHg |
| Wind | 10 kt tailwind |
| Flaps | 10º |
| Runway | Dry grass |
With a pressure altitude of 2089', the nearest values are the 2000' and 3000'. I used the 2000' line of the chart.
At 2000' at 20 ºC the ground roll is 1080' and the total to clear a 50' obstacle is 1895'.
At 30 ºC it's 1155' and 2030'.
The chart says it's configured as follows: 2300 lbs, flaps 10, full power prior to brake release on a paved level dry runway with no wind. The notes state:
*Headwind subtract 10% per 9kts*
*Tailwind add 10% every 2kts up to 10kts*
*Dry, Grass Runway or Gravel add 15% to ground roll.*
At 30 ºC I calculate my takeoff distance being **3305'**.
---
The second part asks by how much the takeoff distance will decrease if the temperature drops to 27 ºC.

13872 | I am trying to connect to Salesforce using node js / jsforce library and use promises. Unfortunately one of the methods is executing prior to getting connection.

13892 | I need to run tests in different environments : `DEV`, `STAGING`, `PRODUCTION`.
And needless to say, the environment variables/secrets for the above environments would obviously be different.
I quick solution would be to have an env file for each environment like `dev.env`, `staging.env` & `prod.env`
But according to the docs of popular dotEnv npm package and 12 Factor app, it is not recommended to have multiple `.env` files in your repo.
Please give me a practical solution of managing env vars for multiple environments.
* <https://github.com/motdotla/dotenv#should-i-have-multiple-env-files>
* <https://12factor.net/config> | If I understand correctly what they're writing here:
**Should I have multiple .env files?**
>
> No. We strongly recommend against having a "main" .env file and an "environment" .env file like .env.test. Your config should vary between deploys, and you should not be sharing values between environments.
>
>
>
This doesn't mean that you shouldn't have multiple env files, but rather that you shouldn't have one `main.env` file with all the default configuration and additional env files (one per environment) that inherit from `main.env` and override certain values.
The reason why it's not recommended is that with such a configuration it's difficult to understand "where a specific value is coming from?" (from which one of the following: main-env-file, specific-env-file, env-variable, code-default and etc).
That said, if you create multiple env files without such a "main" this means that you'll need to duplicate many of the values all over the different env files, which is better because of explicitness, but has the downside of duplication/verbosity.
Configuration is not trivial IMO and while you have only a small project it doesn't matter much how you choose to implement, but if we're talking about something more critical like a company's product, then there are many solutions available out there, some are open-source and free, some cost money, but it's worth doing your research and figure out which one provides you the benefits that are more meaningful to your use-case.
Some of the more popular tools are: [Puppet](https://puppet.com/), [Ansible](https://www.ansible.com/), and [Chef](https://www.chef.io/products/chef-infra). |

```
while (index <= 8)
```
by:
```
while (index < sizeof(A)/sizeof(A[0]))
```
`sizeof(A) / sizeof(A[0])` is the number of elements if the array `A`. `sizeof(A)` is the size in bytes of the whole array, and `sizeof(A[0])` is the size of one elements of the array in bytes.
---

Replace:

Karl, thanks for your answer. Your script works, but with a small problem:

What's the best way to do this in React? Using NextJS and Chakra UI. | You can use [`IntersectionObserver`](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Intersection_Observer_API) and do it as below. For React all you have to do is to add the below code in an `useEffect` with empty dependency.

const video = document.querySelector("video");
function handleIntersection(entries) {
entries.map(async (entry) => {
if (entry.isIntersecting) {
const res = await fetch("/video.mp4");
const data = await res.blob();
video.src = URL.createObjectURL(data);
}

15133 | I have a service that fetches some client data from my server:
```
app.factory('clientDataService', function ($http) {
var clientDataObject = {};
var cdsService = {
fetch: function (cid) {
//$http returns a promise, which has a then function, which also returns a promise
var promise = $http.get('/clients/stats/' + cid + '/').then(function (response) {
// The then function here is an opportunity to modify the response
console.log(response);
// The return value gets picked up by the then in the controller.
clientDataObject = {'data': response.data, 'currentClientID': cid};
return clientDataObject;
});
// Return the promise to the controller
return promise;
}
};
return cdsService;
});
```
Then in one controller I do:
```
//get stats
clientDataService.fetch($scope.id).then(function (response) {
$scope.client_data = {
'statistics': response.data
}
});
```
Which all works very well. However, I'm trying to do a watch from another controller on that service to update it's scope when the data changes, rather then having to re-kick off the http request:
```
$scope.$watch('clientDataService.clientDataObject', function (cid) {
alert(cid);
});
```
I'm just alerting for now, but it never ever triggers. When the page initially loads, it alerts "undefined". I have no errors in the console and all the $injects are fine, but it never seems to recognize that data has changed in the service. Am I doing something wrong in the watch?
Many thanks
Ben | clientDataService.clientDataObject is not part of your controller's scope, so you can't watch for changes on that object.
You need to inject the $rootScope into your service then broadcast the changes to the controllers scopes.
```
app.factory('clientDataService', function ($rootScope, $http) {
var clientDataObject = {};
var cdsService = {
fetch: function (cid) {
var promise = $http.get('/clients/stats/' + cid + '/').then(function (response) {
// The then function here is an opportunity to modify the response
console.log(response);
// The return value gets picked up by the then in the controller.
clientDataObject = {'data': response.data, 'currentClientID': cid};
$rootScope.$broadcast('UPDATE_CLIENT_DATA', clientDataObject);
return clientDataObject;
});
// Return the promise to the controller
return promise;
}
};
return cdsService;
});
```
Then in the controller you can listen for the change using:
```
$scope.$on('UPDATE_CLIENT_DATA', function ( event, clientDataObject ) { });

Any help would be greatly appreciated. I can provide more details, it's my first question so cut me some slack ;)
Thanks | The data in your function is outdated - what's often referred to as a "stale closure". When you write `Geolocation.watchPosition((data) => newPositionHandler(data), ...`, the function is created with the state that exists at the time. When the function runs, this data has become outdated.

});
return <ul>{renderData}</ul>;

```
const names = ['Bill', 'Jack', 'john', 'Alex'];

const namesList = accumulator[firstLetter] || [];
// check if name in array exist to prevent duplicates
// keep in mind for example John and john are not the same
if (!namesList.includes(name)) {
namesList.push(name);
}
// collect data and return
return {...accumulator, [firstLetter]: namesList}

Is there a way to change this so that it works on my Mac? | **Yes**, you definitely **can track moving surfaces and moving objects** in `ARCore`.
If you track static surface using `ARCore` – the resulted features are mainly suitable for so-called `Camera Tracking`. If you track moving object/surface – the resulted features are mostly suitable for `Object Tracking`.
You also can mask moving/not-moving parts of the image and, of course, inverse Six-Degrees-Of-Freedom (translate `xyz` and rotate `xyz`) camera transform.

16180 | I'm currently building a food application which has users select a range of options (perishable, non-perishable ) and (snack, produce or meal) via a set of radio buttons. I'm currently using node.js and sqlite 3 to query a database to determine which entries to return to the user after they search the database.
I want to write a query such that when the booleans from the client-side are sent over to the server, the server will choose the entries such that perishable if perishable is set to true on the client that the query will find just the perishable items and vice-versa. I also want the same functionality with
Example:
```
perishable = request.perishable.
non-perishable = request.non-perishable
snack = request.non-perishable
meal = request.non-perishable
produce = request.non-perishable.
var q = 'SELECT * FROM posts WHERE available == true AND (if perishable is true all rows where the perishable column is set to true... etc );

So waht do you want? Identify the MACHINE or identify the CLUSTER and handle enterprise senarios?
In general this is not poossible wthout extended stored procedures or CLR. Point. You rule out all approache, then there are none left. And the fact that you did read the hard disc number already implies that you are NOT prepared to handle larger installs. What do you read if there is no hard disc (as disc), but a LUN on a SAN? What do you do in case the hard disc is a hardware raid controller? the approach you took from the start was pretty much not working but you failed to see it because you dont deal with enterprise customers ;) Which also means you dont handle complex scenarios (clusters etc.) ;)
As gbn says, don't bother enterprise customers with childish copy protections, put a license agreement in place. In general enterprise software has few technical limitations to allow enterprises to provide good service without running through hoops to get anoether licensing key jsut for a lab install. |
16640 | I'm trying to build a RecyclerView filled with a card view items. For each item I need 2 small images that I load from URL. Everything works fine only if I load sample image from Picasso website ([http://i.imgur.com/DvpvklR.png](https://i.imgur.com/DvpvklR.png)). Every other picture I try to load doesn't show up.

fun loadImageInBackground(item : Footballer, holder : ViewHolder){
doAsync {
var loadImage = Picasso.get().load(item.footballerImageUrl)
var loadFlagImage = Picasso.get().load(item.flagImageUrl)

Any ideas? Thanks in advance! | For loops in R all run in the same scope, which means a variable defined in the loop will be shared by all iterations. This is an issue if you create a function in each loop iteration that accesses this variable, and assume that it'll be unique for each iteration.
Here's a simple demo:
```
counter <- 0; funcs <- list()
for (i in 1:3) {
counter <- counter + 1
funcs[[i]] <- function() print(counter)
}
for (i in 1:3) {
funcs[[i]]() # prints 3 3 3
}
```
In this Shiny app, the `observeEvent` handler accesses the local variable `add`, and doesn't get called until after the for loop is over, and `add` is at its final value.
There are a few ways to get around this and create a unique scope for each loop iteration. My favorite is to use an `apply` function to replace the for loop. Then each `apply` iteration runs in its own function so local variables are unique each item.
```
library(shiny)
# Define the UI
ui <- fluidPage(
#actionButton("adder", "Add"),
tags$div(id = 'placeholder')
)
# Define the server code
server <- function(input, output) {
rv <- reactiveValues(counter = 0)
lapply(1:3, function(i) {
isolate({
rv$counter <- rv$counter + 1
add <- sprintf("%03d",rv$counter)
#prefix <- generateRandomString(1,20)
filterId <- paste0('adder_', add)
divId <- paste0('adder_div_', add)
elementFilterId <- paste0('adder_object_', add)
removeFilterId <- paste0('remover_', add)
insertUI(
selector = '#placeholder',
ui = tags$div(
id = divId,
actionButton(removeFilterId, label = "Remove filter", style = "float: right;"),
textInput(elementFilterId, label = paste0("Introduce text #",rv$counter), value = "")
)
)
})
# Observer that removes a filter
observeEvent(input[[removeFilterId]],{
removeUI(selector = paste0("#", divId))
})
})
}
# Return a Shiny app object
shinyApp(ui = ui, server = server, options = list(launch.browser = T))

Note that I also removed the outer `observeEvent` since the server function runs on session initialization anyway. |
16768 | I have run into a couple of problems while trying to convert an existing JDBC application to use HSQLDB version 2.2.9 (Currently the codebase runs successfully on MySQL, ORACLE and SQLServer, but an embedded database seemed like a good option too).
I will ask the questions one at a time and separately (although they all relate to the JDBC `ResultSet.deleteRow()` method, supported since HSQLDB 2.0)
Why does `rs.next()` return false after calling `rs.deleteRow()`?
Here is a complete self contained code sample (including simple table creation, sample inserts, and deleting the table at the end):
```
int deletedRows=0;
try{
Connection c = DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:hsqldb:mem:mytestdb",
"SA", "");
String createSQL =
"create table test (num INTEGER PRIMARY KEY, str VARCHAR(25))";
Statement createStmt = c.createStatement();
createStmt.execute(createSQL);
createStmt.close();
String ins = "insert into test (num,str) values (?,?)";
PreparedStatement pStmt = c.prepareStatement(ins);
for(int i=0; i<100; i++){
pStmt.setInt(1, i);
pStmt.setString(2, "String"+i);
pStmt.execute();
}
// there should now be 100 rows in the table
String select = "SELECT * FROM test";
PreparedStatement stmt = c.prepareStatement(select,
ResultSet.TYPE_SCROLL_INSENSITIVE, ResultSet.CONCUR_UPDATABLE);
ResultSet rs = stmt.executeQuery();
rs.beforeFirst();
while(rs.next()){
int num = rs.getInt("num");
if((num%7)==0){
System.out.println("Deleting row:"+num);
rs.deleteRow();
deletedRows++;
}
}
Statement dropStmt = c.createStatement();
dropStmt.execute("drop table test;");
dropStmt.close();
} catch (SQLException sqle) {
System.out.println("Deleted "+deletedRows+
" rows before exception: "+sqle.getMessage());
sqle.printStackTrace();
}
```
When running the same code on MySQL database, the output shows that every 7th row is deleted:
>
> Deleting row:0
>
>
> Deleting row:7
>
>
> ...
>
>
> Deleting row: 98
>
>
>
On HSQLDB, the output is:
>
> Deleting row:0
>
>
>
The `rs.next()` returns false after the first call to `rs.deleteRow()`.
I cannot find any information in the HSQLDB javadoc. Does anyone have any ideas? | As I also commented before, this sounds like a bug in the HSQLDB JDBC implementation. The JDBC 4.1 spec (section 15.2.4.2) says:
>
> After the method `deleteRow` has been called, the cursor will be positioned before the next valid row. If the deleted row is the last row, the cursor will be positioned after the last row.
>
>
>
This implies that the call to `next()` should have returned `true` (if the `ResultSet` contained more rows). |

``` | Yes, you can do that. It's nothing inherently wrong with it. However, it can make it impossible to recover from a failed allocation. If you're planning to exit the program if the allocation fails, it (usually) does not matter.
So this is perfectly fine:
```
ptr = realloc(ptr, newsize);
if(!ptr) exit(EXIT_FAILURE);
```
And so is this:
```
tmpptr = realloc(ptr, newsize);
if(!tmpptr) puts("Allocation failed. Continuing anyway.");
else ptr = tmpptr;
```
Note: It can be argued if it's ok to exit with a memory leak. In most cases, that does not matter, since the operating system will usually clean everything up upon exit. So be aware that in the first example, you will exit with a memory leak.
So if a memory leak does matter to you, even if you're exiting on failure, you can do something like this:
```
tmpptr = realloc(ptr, newsize);
if(!tmpptr) {
free(ptr);
exit(EXIT_FAILURE);
} else {
ptr = tmpptr;
}
```
However, do notice that this would only solve the problem for the `ptr` pointer. If you have a program of any complexity above simple school assignments, chances are pretty high that you have a few other allocations already going on. Keeping track of all that is possible, but far from trivial. Consider this very minimalistic example:
```
void foo() {
void *ptr1 = malloc(SIZE);
if(!ptr1) exit(EXIT_FAILURE);
bar();
free(ptr1);
}
void bar() {
void *ptr2 = malloc(SIZE);
if(!ptr2) {
// Here we should call free on ptr1 to avoid memory leaks, but how?
exit(EXIT_FAILURE);
}
// Do work
free(ptr2);
}
```
Of course, you could easily rewrite it:
```
void foo() {
void *ptr1 = malloc(SIZE);
if(!ptr1) exit(EXIT_FAILURE);
if(!bar()) exit(EXIT_FAILURE);
free(ptr1);
}
int bar() {
void *ptr2 = malloc(SIZE);
if(!ptr2) return 0;
// Do work
free(ptr2);
return 1;
}
```
In this case, it was easy, but keep in mind that this example is VERY trivial.
I would not bother unless I have a very good reason to care. It makes the code messy and is completely unnecessary on modern operating systems. Unless I'm writing code for an environment where it does matter, I would only care if I'm writing a function where I want it to be up to the caller to exit or not.
The bottom line here is that making sure that all allocated resources are freed by the program on exit can be a complete nightmare. And unless you have the need for it and are willing to spend quite a lot of time getting it right, then don't bother.
In practice, dealing with this would require you to take this into account for almost all aspects of the design. And that's very rarely a good tradeoff.

17349 | Is the following always true?
$$
\arctan(f(x))\leq f(x),\ \ \text{where}\ \ |f(x)|<1\ \ \forall x\in\mathbb{R}
$$
For example, is it correct to say that
$$
\arctan\left(\frac{\sin x}{\sqrt{x+1}}\right)\le\frac{\sin x}{\sqrt{x+1}}\ \ \forall x\in\mathbb{R},
$$
since $\arctan t=t-\frac{t^3}{3}+\frac{t^5}{5}-\dots$, where each term is not greater than the one before?
I'm confused because in the example above $\arctan$'s argument can be negative (i.e., $\sin x$ can be negative). | If $0\leq f(x) <1$, yes, of course. Since $\frac{d}{dy}\arctan y=\frac{1}{1+y^2}\leq1$ (and $\arctan(0)=0$), you'll have
$$ \arctan y \leq y, \quad\text{for }\ y\geq0. $$
Clearly, the situation is reversed if $y<0$, because both functions are negative. You can say that $|\arctan f(x)|\leq|f(x)|$ with no restrictions on $f(x)$, though. |
18415 | This question has already been asked but was never answered properly. After clearance with @Seth I am now asking it again. This will allow me to respond and possibly modify the question a lot easier. The original question can be found here:
[Map Ctrl and Alt to mouse thumb buttons](https://askubuntu.com/questions/162141/map-ctrl-and-alt-to-mouse-thumb-buttons)
---
**Issue:**
Though it is very simple to map any keystrokes to a mouse button using `xbindkeys` in conjunction with `xdotool` or `xte` it seems a lot more problematic to map a modifier key (e.g. *ALT*, *CTRL*, *SHIFT* etc.) to it.
The final soloution should allow i.a. a *CTRL* + *click* (e.g. for selecting multiple entries of a list) with just the mouse.
A couple of possible approaches to solve this can be found here at Stack Exchange as well as at other Linux related forums. But none of those work as expected as they lead to other issues and side effects.
**Notes:**
Some of the examples below involve *Guile* with *Scheme* syntax and rely on `.xbindkeysrc.scm` file whereas others rely on the `.xbindkeysrc` file with its respective syntax. I am aware that they won't work together.
Furthermore the below snippets rely on `xdotool` only but I am open to approaches involving other applications like e.g. `xte` as well - though it seems both lead to the same results and therefore I am using just `xdotool` actions here.
**Approach A:**
Updating the `.xbindkeysrc` file with:
```
"xdotool keydown ctrl"
b:8
"xdotool keyup ctrl"
release + b:8
```
That's what I initially tried but it has the side-effect that the modifier is being held and can not be released.
**Approach B:**
Updating the `.xbindkeysrc.scm` file with:
```
(xbindkey '("b:8") "xdotool keydown ctrl")
(xbindkey '(release "b:8") "xdotool keyup ctrl")
(xbindkey '("m:0x14" "b:8") "xdotool keydown ctrl")
(xbindkey '(release "m:0x14" "b:8") "xdotool keyup ctrl")
```
Found at <http://www.linuxforums.org/forum/hardware-peripherals/169773-solved-map-mouse-button-modifier-key.html> and tries to address the issue where the modifier is being held (as described at approach a).
Though it fixes that it does only work partially as it is not possible to perform other mouse clicks while the thumb button is pressed.
**Approach C:**
Updating the `.xbindkeysrc` file with:
```
"xdotool keydown ctrl"
b:8
"xdotool keyup ctrl"
release + control + b:8
```
Tried out by OP of the linked question here at askubuntu. A lot simpler and more solid as it does not involve modifier states. Nevertheless the issue remains, i.e. a *CTRL* + *click* is not possible.
It seems that `xbindkeys` itself is the problem here as it recognizes the click but won't execute it. This can be tested using `xev | grep button` and `xbindkeys -v`:
A normal mouse click as recorded by `xev` should look like:
```
state 0x10, button 1, same_screen YES
state 0x110, button 1, same_screen YES
```
As well as for the thumb button:
```
state 0x10, button 8, same_screen YES
state 0x10, button 8, same_screen YES
```
But when having the above `xbindkeys` configuration enabled it does not record anything. Though it makes sense for the thumb button as it is mapped to *CTRL* and therefore is not a mouse button anymore it is strange that *button 1* is not recorded as well. This is likely because `xbindkeys` does not execute it but itself is recognizing it:
```
Button press !
e.xbutton.button=8
e.xbutton.state=16
"xdotool keydown ctrl"
m:0x0 + b:8 (mouse)
got screen 0 for window 16d
Start program with fork+exec call
Button press !
e.xbutton.button=1
e.xbutton.state=20
Button release !
e.xbutton.button=1
e.xbutton.state=276
Button release !
e.xbutton.button=8
e.xbutton.state=20
"xdotool keyup ctrl"
Release + m:0x4 + b:8 (mouse)
got screen 0 for window 16d
Start program with fork+exec call
```
**Approach D:**
Updating the `.xbindkeysrc` file with:
```
"xdotool keydown ctrl"
b:8
"xdotool keyup ctrl"
release + control + b:8
"xdotool click 1"
b:1
```
Just too simple ... but leads to an infinite loop of clicks.

**UPDATE:**
In the meantime I've bought a Logitech G502 and noticed that once configured via the driver on Windows not only the profile itself is stored on the device memory but the actual keypress is done by the mouse. That in fact solved my problem on Linux!
The only other mouse I remember that was able to do that was the Razer Copperhead back in the days. But I guess there are other mice available today which can do the same. | I spent a lot of time trying to make that binding work. I eventually found a solution, which is complicated but works well and doesn't imply third party software.
I share it here hoping it will help people. Besides, I know this is not perfect in terms of security, so any constructive feedback is more than welcome.
There are solutions who are really nice, [like the one proposed here](http://www.ralf-oechsner.de/opensource/page/logitech_performance_mx), but It always suffer from the limitation of xbindkeys who grab the entire mouse, making modifers+mouse click mapping uncertain. Plus the guile based solution from the above link use ctrl+plus/ctrl+minus which isn't recognize by Gimp for example.
I figured out that what we want is a mouse button who act as a keyboard, so I used uinput, who can be accessed [via python](https://pypi.python.org/pypi/python-uinput), wrote a script that monitor /dev/my-mouse for the thumb button click and send the ctrl key to the virtual keyboard. Here are the detailed steps :
1. Make udev rules
------------------
We want the devices to be accessible (rights and location).
**For the mouse :**
```
/etc/udev/rules.d/93-mxmouse.conf.rules
------------------------------------------------------------
KERNEL=="event[0-9]*", SUBSYSTEM=="input", SUBSYSTEMS=="input",
ATTRS{name}=="Logitech Performance MX", SYMLINK+="my_mx_mouse",
GROUP="mxgrabber", MODE="640"
```
Udev will look for a device recognized by the kernel with names like event5, and I select my mouse with the name. The SYMLINK instruction assure I will find my mouse in /dev/my\_mx\_mouse. The device will be readable by a member of the group "mxgrabber".
To find information about your hardware, you should run something like
```
udevadm info -a -n /dev/input/eventX
```
**For uinput :**
```
/etc/udev/rules.d/94-mxkey.rules
----------------------------------------------------
KERNEL=="uinput", GROUP="mxgrabber", MODE="660"
```
No need for symlink, uinput will always be in `$/dev/uinput` or `$/dev/input/uinput` depending on the system you're on. Just give him the group and the rights to read AND write of course.
You need to unplug - plug your mouse, and the new link should appear in /dev. You can force udev to trigger your rules with `$udevadm trigger`
2. Activate UINPUT Module
-------------------------
```
sudo modprobe uinput
```
And to make it boot persistant :
```
/etc/modules-load.d/uinput.conf
-----------------------------------------------
uinput
```
3. Create new group
-------------------
```
sudo groupadd mxgrabber
```
Or whatever you have called your access group. Then you should add yourself to it :
```
sudo usermod -aG mxgrabber your_login
```
4. Python script
----------------
You need to install the **python-uinput library** (obviously) and the **python-evdev library**. Use pip or your distribution package.
The script is quite straightforward, you just have to identify the event.code of you button.
```
#!/usr/bin/python3.5
# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-
"""
Sort of mini driver.
Read a specific InputDevice (my_mx_mouse),
monitoring for special thumb button
Use uinput (virtual driver) to create a mini keyboard
Send ctrl keystroke on that keyboard
"""
from evdev import InputDevice, categorize, ecodes
import uinput
# Initialize keyboard, choosing used keys
ctrl_keyboard = uinput.Device([
uinput.KEY_KEYBOARD,
uinput.KEY_LEFTCTRL,
uinput.KEY_F4,
])
# Sort of initialization click (not sure if mandatory)
# ( "I'm-a-keyboard key" )
ctrl_keyboard.emit_click(uinput.KEY_KEYBOARD)
# Useful to list input devices
#for i in range(0,15):
# dev = InputDevice('/dev/input/event{}'.format(i))
# print(dev)
# Declare device patch.
# I made a udev rule to assure it's always the same name
dev = InputDevice('/dev/my_mx_mouse')
#print(dev)
ctrlkey_on = False
# Infinite monitoring loop
for event in dev.read_loop():
# My thumb button code (use "print(event)" to find)
if event.code == 280 :
# Button status, 1 is down, 0 is up
if event.value == 1:
ctrl_keyboard.emit(uinput.KEY_LEFTCTRL, 1)
ctrlkey_on = True
elif event.value == 0:
ctrl_keyboard.emit(uinput.KEY_LEFTCTRL, 0)
ctrlkey_on = False
```
5. Enjoy !
----------
All you need now is make your python file executable, and ask your desktop manager to load the file at startup. Maybe also a glass of wine to celebrate the good work !
6. Extra for free
-----------------
I use xbindkeys for additional behavior. For instance, the following configuration may be nice if you have a mouse with wheel side clicks :
```
~/.xbindkeysrc
---------------------------------------------
# Navigate between tabs with side wheel buttons
"xdotool key ctrl+Tab"
b:7
"xdotool key ctrl+shift+Tab"
b:6
# Close tab with ctrl + right click
# --clearmodifiers ensure that ctrl state will be
# restored if button is still pressed
"xdotool key --clearmodifiers ctrl+F4"
control+b:3
```
For this last combinaison to work, **you must disable the button you configured for the python script**, otherwise it will still be grabed by xbindkeys. Only the Ctrl key must remain :
```
~/.Xmodmap
-------------------------------------------
! Disable button 13
! Is mapped to ctrl with uinput and python script
pointer = 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 0 14 15
```
Reload with `$ xmodmap ~/.Xmodmap`
7. Conclusion
-------------
As I said in the beginning, I'm not perfectly happy with the fact that I have to give myself the wrights to write to /dev/uinput, even if it's thought the "mxgrabber" group. I'm sure there is a safer way of doing that, but I don't know how.
**On the bright side, it works really, really well.** Any combinaison of keyboard or mouse key how works with the Ctrl button of the keyboard now works with the one of the mouse !! |
18430 | I'm looking for an answer to the following question. (An answer to a slightly different question would be good as well, since it could be useful for the same purpose.)

Preferably, "small" will be $\epsilon$*n* where $\epsilon$ can be made arbitrarily small, as long as *n* and *k* are sufficiently large.
I'm hoping the answer is yes. Here is why some such *A* might exist: on average, each element of {1, 2, ..., *n*} intersects *k* sets in *C*, so one might hope to make do with *A* of size on the order of *n*/*k*.
This smells a bit like some version of Ramsey's theorem to me, or like the Erdős–Ko–Rado theorem, but it doesn't (as far as I can tell) follow directly from either. | I believe, reading the abstract, that the paper "Transversal numbers of uniform hypergraphs", Graphs and Combinatorics 6, no. 1, 1990 by Noga Alon answers your question in the affirmative, for some definition of ``your question''. Namely, the worst case is that $A$ has to have size about $2\log k/k$ times $n$, and this multiplier tends to zero as $k$ tends to infinity.
Here's a free copy of the paper.
<http://www.cs.tau.ac.il/~nogaa/PDFS/Publications/Transversal%20numbers%20of%20uniform%20hypergraphs.pdf>
I'm certainly no expert on these matters and my advice would be to look at this and related literature on transversals of hypergraphs. Your collection $C$ of sets is the same thing as a $k$-uniform hypergraph, and the property that you want from $A$ is equivalent to it being a transversal.
Reading Alon's paper a little more I see that what you want is the easier direction of his argument (which gives a tight dependence on $k$). The basic idea is to choose your transversal randomly by picking elements of $\{1,\dots,n\}$ with an appropriate probability $p$. That way, with high probability, you'll hit most of the sets from your collection $C$, and then you just add in one extra element of $A$ for each un-hit set from $C$.
Reading a little further still, I see that the upper bound is probabilistic as well: that is, to make a collection $C$ which is ``bad'', the best plan is to choose sets in $C$ at random from amongst all $k$-element subsets of $\{1,\dots,n\}$.
There's probably literature on your ``almost transveral'' question, but I'll leave someone else to find it. My guess is that random does best in both directions there too. |

19316 | I want to remove an index in a table whose access in php never uses the indexed column. Index takes up extra space and I am trying to trim it. It's a table of phone numbers. A phone number is linked to a user profile's id. So it has 3 columns. `id` (index), `number` and `person`. I was wondering if removing the index will affect the queries that use `number` or `person` in the where clause. My gut feeling is that it shouldn't but I am afraid computer science doesn't work on gut feelings. The data is accessed via `join`s. For example...
```
SELECT *
FROM people ... LEFT JOIN
phoneNumbers
ON people.id = phoneNumbers.person
```
Edit: Apparently no one seems to be able to answer the question in the title. | In the case you show, only the `person` column would benefit from an index.
Indexes help in basically four cases:
* **Row restriction**, that is finding the rows by value instead of examining every row in the table.
+ **Joining** is a subset of row restriction, i.e. each distinct value in the first table looks up matching rows in the second table. Indexing a column that is referenced in the `ON` clause is done in the same way you would index a column referenced in the `WHERE` clause.
* **Sorting**, to retrieve rows in index order instead of having to sort the result set as an additional step.
* **Distinct and Group By**, to scan each distinct value in an index.
* **Covering index**, that is when the query needs only the columns that are found in the index.
In the case of InnoDB, every table is treated as an *index-organized table* based on its primary key, and we should take advantage of this because primary key lookups are very efficient. So if you can redefine a primary key on your `phoneNumbers.person` column (in part), that would be best. |
19969 | So yesterday I was developing some sort of offline functionality. Therefore, I added an ApiService that returns Observables.
Currently, I fetch my access\_token for jwt-Authentication and then use this token to generate Headers for my API-Request. After a successful request, I save the result to my storage. This works fine. Now here is the problem I want to check for an unsuccessful request (e.g. servers are down, app is offline) and then return my stored result from storage. But I can't get it to work.
Here is my code:
```
getJobs(): Observable<any> {
this.auth.checkToken()
return from(this.storage.get(ACCESS_TOKEN)).pipe(
switchMap(token => {
let options = this.auth.addToken(token)
return this.http.get(API_URL + "jobs", options)
}),
map(res => {
if (res) {
this.storage.set(JOBS, res)
return res
} else {
return from(this.storage.get(JOBS))
}
}),
catchError(() => {
return from(this.storage.get(JOBS))
})
)
}
```
Further investigations have shown that after the server or the app is offline neither the map() nor the catchError() functions were executed.
**UPDATE:**
The solution provided by DJ House is correct. My Code works perfectly in my browser but if I build my app with `ionic cordova build android` it gets stuck after the `this.http.get(...)` So it's clearly and issue with cordova
**SOLUTION:**
Wow! Something magical happened! I've found out that the catchError method gets called BUT after almost 2 Minutes, which is way to slow... So I will implement a timeout.
Thanks
