  • How would you write a program to find the shortest pangram in a list of words?

    - by jonathanasdf
    Given a list of words which contains the letters a-z at least once, how would you write a program to find the shortest pangram counted by number of characters (not counting spaces) as a combination of the words? Since I am not sure whether short answers exist, this is not code golf, but rather just a discussion of how you would approach this. However, if you think you can manage to write a short program that would do this, then go ahead, and this might turn into code golf :)

  • Cleaning up a SQL SP with Regex

    - by Douglas Osborne
    1) If I am running a find and replace in SQL 2005 - what would be the regular expression to find tab and space sequences ( or space and tab sequences ) and replace them with just tab? 2) If I have a line which begins with a space - is there a regular expression to convert that leading space to a tab? 3) What would be the regular expression to remove all of the spaces before a CR/LF in a SQL statement? TIA for the help - I know this will be trivial to most of you, Doug

  • Django Fancy String Diff During Test Execution in Console

    - by Koobz
    Anyone know of any pre-existing tools out there what will highlight differences in output when running Django tests? I'm comparing some JSON output and it's tough to find things like extra spaces. I was about to just copy and paste this into an existing diff tool but I figured this might be on someone's radar.

  • Command line CSV viewer?

    - by Benjamin Oakes
    Anyone know of a command-line CSV viewer for Linux/OS X? I'm thinking of something like less but that spaces out the columns in a more readable way. (I'd be fine with opening it with OpenOffice Calc or Excel, but that's way too overpowered for just looking at the data like I need to.) Having horizontal and vertical scrolling would be great.

  • How to remove commas etc from a matrix in python

    - by robert
    say ive got a matrix that looks like: [[0, 0, 0, 0, 0], [0, 0, 0, 0, 0], [0, 0, 0, 0, 0]] how can i make it on seperate lines: [[0, 0, 0, 0, 0], [0, 0, 0, 0, 0], [0, 0, 0, 0, 0]] and then remove commas etc: 0 0 0 0 0 And also to make it blank instead of 0's, so that numbers can be put in later, so in the end it will be like: _ 1 2 _ 1 _ 1 (spaces not underscores) thanks

  • Python style: multiple-line conditions in IFs

    - by Eli Bendersky
    Hello, Sometimes I break long conditions in IFs to several lines. The most obvious way to do this is: if (cond1 == 'val1' and cond2 == 'val2' and cond3 == 'val3' and cond4 == 'val4'): do_something Isn't very very appealing visually, because the action blends with the conditions. However, it is the natural way using correct Python indentation of 4 spaces. Edit: By the way, for the moment I'm using: if ( cond1 == 'val1' and cond2 == 'val2' and cond3 == 'val3' and cond4 == 'val4'): do_something Not very pretty, I know :-) Can you recommend an alternative way ?

  • Shell Script - print selected columns

    - by teepusink
    Hi, I have a txt file with columns separated by tabs and based on that file, I want to create a new file that only contains information from some of the columns. This is what I have now awk '{ print $1, $5 }' filename newfilename That works except that when column 5 contains spaces e.g 123 Street, only 123 shows up and the street is considered as another column. How can I achieve what I'm trying to do? Thanks, Tee

    hi segmentText = <input from textarea>; testRgx = [/( \d+\.| [^\W\d_]\.|.)+?([!?.?](?= |$)|$)/g]; arrSegments = segmentText.match(testRgx); This expression fails if segmentText has \n or other white spaces in it.I want to add \n in to the list of chars that the above pattern use [!?.?] = [!?.?\n] so that the segment is separated based on the \n character

  • Haskell: Gluing a char and a list together?

    - by Vincent
    So I have this code here: toWords :: String - [a] toWords "" = [] toWords (nr1 : rest) | nr1 == ' ' = toWords rest | otherwise = nr1 : toWords rest The "toWords" function should simply remove all spaces and return a list with all the words. But I keep getting this error: test.hs:5:18: Couldn't match expected type a' against inferred typeChar' `a' is a rigid type variable bound by the type signature for `toWords' at test.hs:1:22 In the first argument of `(:)', namely `nr1' In the expression: nr1 : toWords rest In the definition of `toWords': toWords (nr1 : rest) | nr1 == ' ' = toWords rest | otherwise = nr1 : toWords rest Failed, modules loaded: none.

  • Re-define File::dirname ruby method

    - by jrhicks
    I'm trying to redefine the File.dirname method to first change %20s to spaces. But the following gives me an error class File old_dirname = instance_method(:dirname) define_method(:dirname) { |s| s = s.gsub("%20"," ") old_dirname.bind(self).call(s) } end This trhows a NameError exception: undefined method 'dirname' for class 'File' What is the right way to do this?

  • Safely escaping and reading back a file path in ruby

    - by user336851
    I need to save a few informations about some files. Nothing too fancy so I thought I would go with a simple one line per item text file. Something like this : # write io.print "%i %s %s\n" % [File.mtime(fname), fname, Digest::SHA1.file(fname).hexdigest] # read io.each do |line| mtime, name, hash = line.scanf "%i %s %s" end Of course this doesn't work because a file name can contain spaces (breaking scanf) and line breaks (breaking IO#each). The line break problem can be avoided by dropping the use of each and going with a bunch of gets(' ') while not io.eof? mtime = Time.at(io.gets(" ").to_i) name = io.gets " " hash = io.gets "\n" end Dealing with spaces in the names is another matter. Now we need to do some escaping. note : I like space as a record delimiter but I'd have no issue changing it for one easier to use. In the case of filenames though, the only one that could help is ascii nul "\0" but a nul delimited file isn't really a text file anymore... I initially had a wall of text detailing the iterations of my struggle to make a correct escaping function and its reciprocal but it was just boring and not really useful. I'll just give you the final result: def write_name(io, val) io << val.gsub(/([\\ ])/, "\\\\\\1") # yes that' 6 backslashes ! end def read_name(io) name, continued = "", true while continued continued = false name += io.gets(' ').gsub(/\\(.)/) do |c| if c=="\\\\" "\\" elsif c=="\\ " continued=true " " else raise "unexpected backslash escape : %p (%s %i)" % [c, io.path, io.pos] end end end return name.chomp(' ') end I'm not happy at all with read_name. Way too long and akward, I feel it shouldn't be that hard. While trying to make this work I tried to come up with other ways : the bittorrent encoded / php serialize way : prefix the file name with the length of the name then just io.read(name_len.to_i). It works but it's a real pita to edit the file by hand. At this point we're halfway to a binary format. String#inspect : This one looks expressly made for that purpose ! Except it seems like the only way to get the value back is through eval. I hate the idea of eval-ing a string I didn't generate from trusted data. So. Opinions ? Isn't there some lib which can do all this ? Am I missing something obvious ? How would you do that ?

  • How do I force jquery to center an element when it snaps to another container using the draggable method?

    - by David
    Here's my script. I want some square-shaped draggable objects (in this case just td boxes with numbers in them) to be able to snap to some empty table cells and snap to the center of those cells (empty td boxes), not the top or bottom of those cells, which is what is seems to do by default. <script type="text/javascript"> $(document).ready(function () { $(".inputs div").draggable( { snap: ".spaces" } ); }); </script>

  • Select fields containing at least one non-space alphanumeric character

    - by zzapper
    (Sorry I know this is an old chestnut; I have found similar answers here but not an exact answer) These are frequent hand written queries from a console so I is what I am looking for is the easiest thing to type SELECT * FROM tbl_loyalty_card WHERE CUSTOMER_ID REGEXP "[0-9A-Z]"; or SELECT * FROM tbl_loyalty_card WHERE LENGTH(CUSTOMER_ID) >0; -- could match spaces Do you have anything quicker to type even if it's QAD?

  • Split string in C every white space

    - by redsolja
    I want to write a program in C that displays each word of a whole sentence (taken as input) at a seperate line. This is what i have done so far: void manipulate(char *buffer); int get_words(char *buffer); int main(){ char buff[100]; printf("sizeof %d\nstrlen %d\n", sizeof(buff), strlen(buff)); // Debugging reasons bzero(buff, sizeof(buff)); printf("Give me the text:\n"); fgets(buff, sizeof(buff), stdin); manipulate(buff); return 0; } int get_words(char *buffer){ // Function that gets the word count, by counting the spaces. int count; int wordcount = 0; char ch; for (count = 0; count < strlen(buffer); count ++){ ch = buffer[count]; if((isblank(ch)) || (buffer[count] == '\0')){ // if the character is blank, or null byte add 1 to the wordcounter wordcount += 1; } } printf("%d\n\n", wordcount); return wordcount; } void manipulate(char *buffer){ int words = get_words(buffer); char *newbuff[words]; char *ptr; int count = 0; int count2 = 0; char ch = '\n'; ptr = buffer; bzero(newbuff, sizeof(newbuff)); for (count = 0; count < 100; count ++){ ch = buffer[count]; if (isblank(ch) || buffer[count] == '\0'){ buffer[count] = '\0'; if((newbuff[count2] = (char *)malloc(strlen(buffer))) == NULL) { printf("MALLOC ERROR!\n"); exit(-1); } strcpy(newbuff[count2], ptr); printf("\n%s\n",newbuff[count2]); ptr = &buffer[count + 1]; count2 ++; } } } Although the output is what i want, i have really many black spaces after the final word displayed, and the malloc() returns NULL so the MALLOC ERROR! is displayed in the end. I can understand that there is a mistake at my malloc() implementation but i do not know what it is. Is there another more elegant - generally better way to do it? Thanks in advance.

  • Table Naming Dilemma: Singular vs. Plural Names

    - by ProfK
    Convention has it that table names should be the singular of the entity that they store attributes of. I dislike any T-SQL that requires square brackets around names, but I have renamed a Users table to the singular, forever sentencing those using the table to sometimes have to use brackets. My gut feel is that it is more correct to stay with the singular, but my gut feel is also that brackets indicate undesirables like column names with spaces in them etc. Should I stay, or should I go?

  • How to remove/hide <div></div> tags only without the content?

    - by candies
    For example I have: <div id ="test">[the content here]</div> The content within the div tags will appear after I called the id of div using ajax. This is the code: function dinamic(add) { var kode = add.value; if (!kode) return; xmlhttp2.open('get', '../template/get_id.php?kode='+kode, true); xmlhttp2.onreadystatechange = function() { if ((xmlhttp2.readyState == 4) && (xmlhttp2.status == 200)) { var add = document.getElementById("test"); add.innerHTML = xmlhttp2.responseText; } return false; } xmlhttp2.send(null); } So it will appear <div id="test">A</div> I'd like to put the content of div - A into mysql query. $test = $_GET['test']; $query = "select * from example where category='$test'"; I've tried to make variable $test of the div id to get the content but result of the query in category is none. I tried again, I put the div in to the query $query = "select * from example where category='<div id=\"test\">A</div>'"; Yes, It works. But when I did query on navicat, no results I got because there's spaces between A that is <div> and </div>. How to remove/hide the div tags only so its only appear the content? > $query = "select * from example where category='A'"; < Edit: If I echo the query on firefox browser will say "$query = "select * from example where category='[space]A[space]'";" And look at the bug(I use firebug), it will say "$query = "select * from example where category='<div id="test">A</div>'";" So my guessing why can't get result after query on navicat is there's spaces between A([space]A[space]), just have no idea how to remove/hide the div tags, I want to get this result only "$query = "select * from example where category='A'";" Thanks.
