  • What does .NET stand for? Is it an acronym?

    - by shaunmartin
    I've seen pronunciation guides and all sorts of definitions of .NET as a framework, but no definition or explanation of the actual name of the framework. Wikipedia doesn't seem to know. This question didn't cover it. Anybody know? Is it pure marketing-generated nonsense, or does it mean something?

  • What does "stupid" in "Keep It Simple, Stupid" mean?

    - by Borek
    I'm not a native speaker and always thought that the last "S" in KISS is a "salutation", like calling me that way if I don't keep things simple. But Wikipedia states that KISS stands for "Keep It Simple and Stupid". Which is "correct" or at least makes sense to you? And yes, this is a stupid question :)

  • Cutomizing dired

    - by Arthur Debert
    I just came across this dired mode screen at Wikipedia. I am looking into those customizations. Regarding colors, I guess just specifying the correct faces will do, but how do I get dired to show file sized in kbytes by default? And the available space in MBs (top line)?

  • Digest authentication using LDAP only

    - by Elephant
    Is there a way to validate digest authentication using LDAP only? I.e. if I have the following request from a client (stealed from Wikipedia): GET /dir/index.html HTTP/1.0 Host: localhost Authorization: Digest username="Mufasa", realm="[email protected]", nonce="dcd98b7102dd2f0e8b11d0f600bfb0c093", uri="/dir/index.html", qop=auth, nc=00000001, cnonce="0a4f113b", response="6629fae49393a05397450978507c4ef1", opaque="5ccc069c403ebaf9f0171e9517f40e41" could I validate the user against LDAP, meaning if I don't now user password hence is not able to construct a digest hash to compare with the response?

  • What is an overloaded operator in c++?

    - by Jeff
    I realize this is a basic question but I have searched online, been to cplusplus.com, read through my book, and I can't seem to grasp the concept of overloaded operators. A specific example from cplusplus.com is: // vectors: overloading operators example #include <iostream> using namespace std; class CVector { public: int x,y; CVector () {}; CVector (int,int); CVector operator + (CVector); }; CVector::CVector (int a, int b) { x = a; y = b; } CVector CVector::operator+ (CVector param) { CVector temp; temp.x = x + param.x; temp.y = y + param.y; return (temp); } int main () { CVector a (3,1); CVector b (1,2); CVector c; c = a + b; cout << c.x << "," << c.y; return 0; } from http://www.cplusplus.com/doc/tutorial/classes2/ but reading through it I'm still not understanding them at all. I just need a basic example of the point of the overloaded operator (which I assume is the "CVector CVector::operator+ (CVector param)"). There's also this example from wikipedia: Time operator+(const Time& lhs, const Time& rhs) { Time temp = lhs; temp.seconds += rhs.seconds; if (temp.seconds >= 60) { temp.seconds -= 60; temp.minutes++; } temp.minutes += rhs.minutes; if (temp.minutes >= 60) { temp.minutes -= 60; temp.hours++; } temp.hours += rhs.hours; return temp; } from "http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operator_overloading" The current assignment I'm working on I need to overload a ++ and a -- operator. Thanks in advance for the information and sorry about the somewhat vague question, unfortunately I'm just not sure on it at all.

  • Automatically Generate a FlowChart in Python

    - by fayce
    Dear All, I would like to automatically generate a flowchart similar to this one ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:%281%29_2008-04-07_Information_Management-_Help_Desk.jpg ) with Python. Do you have any advice regarding the library I should use to draw boxes, arrows (with the shortest path), text and some colors. Many thanks in advance !

  • Real world examples of tree structures

    - by Arec Barrwin
    I'm looking for some examples of tree structures that are used in commercial/free software projects, modern or old. I can see examples on wikipedia, but I am looking for more concrete examples and how they're used. For example primary keys in databases are (from what I've read) stored in BST structure or a variation of the BST (feel free to correct me on this) My question isn't limited Binary Search Trees (BSTs), it can include any variation such as red-black, AVL and so on.

  • Which term to use when referring to functional data structures: persistent or immutable?

    - by Bob
    In the context of functional programming which is the correct term to use: persistent or immutable? When I Google "immutable data structures" I get a Wikipedia link to an article on "Persistent data structure" which even goes on to say: such data structures are effectively immutable Which further confuses things for me. Do functional programs rely on persistent data structures or immutable data structures? Or are they always the same thing?

    - by aaa
    hello. Is there macro, something like BOOST_AUTO, which would allow to emulate automatic return type deduction of function in C++? I mean something like trailing-return-type, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/C%2B%2B0x#Alternative_function_syntax thank you

  • iPhone SDK - options when text is selected

    - by Jack
    Hi, When text is selected in the iPhone OS, the user is given the option to copy/cut etc. How would I go about adding a new option here? An example of this is in CourseNotes for iPad http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VLQhKkgco_I where the option is used to look up on wikipedia (around 55seconds in). Thanks

  • An O(1) Sort ~~~

    - by FlySwat
    Before you stone me for being a heretic, There is a sort that proclaims to be O(1), called "Bead Sort" (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bead_sort) , however that is pure theory, when actually applied I found that it was actually O(N * M), which is pretty pathetic. That said, Lets list out some of the fastest sorts, and their best case and worst case speed in Big O notation. ~~ FlySwat ~~

  • Why does dynamic array always double by a factor of 2?

    - by Phoenix
    I was wondering how does one decide the resizing factor by which dynamic array resizes ? On wikipedia and else where I have always seen the number of elements being increased by a factor of 2? Why 2? Why not 3? how does one decide this factor ? IF it is language dependent I would like to know this for Java.

  • What kind of language is CSS?

    - by Derek Adair
    What kind of language is CSS? My first inclination was to call it a markup language... but it doesn't really fit the mold. Edit: A markup language is a system for annotating a text in a way which is syntactically distinguishable from that text. -wikipedia CSS uses various selectors to apply properties to elements within HTML, a markup language

  • Any PHP MVC framework planning to use 5.3 features?

    - by alexandrul
    I would like to get started with PHP, and 5.3 release seems to bring many nice features (namespaces, lambda functions, and many others). I have found some MVC frameworks, and some of them support only PHP 5: PHP Frameworks PHP MVC Frameworks Model–view–controller on Wikipedia but can anyone recommend one of those MVC frameworks that plans to actively use PHP 5.3 features, not just being compatible with PHP 5.3? Update Results so far: Zend Framework 2.0 (in development) Lithium (in development, based on CakePHP) Symfony (in development) FLOW3 (in development, alpha)

  • Confused about Base class libary and Framework Class Library

    - by n0vic3c0d3r
    Is ADO.NET and ASP.NET a part of Base Class Library? The information given in wikipedia looks ambiguous to me. In the figure, it is shown as a separate block. What is the difference between Base Class Library(BCL) and Framework Class Library(FCL)? Is FCL as a part of .NET Framework? If so why is FCL not shown in the figure as part of .NET framework? Got confused!!

  • How to test unescaped &nbsps; as a whitespace

    - by gleery
    I use apache common lang to unescape a block of html text which contains &nbsp;, I want to filter out blocks that contains only whitespaces. But I can't test the   as a whitespace. It's not in the normal whitespace list(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Whitespace_character), and I try to print its Hex form by calling Character.getNumericValue which return -1. &nbsp should be a whitespace,isn't? But How can I test it?
