SEARCH KEYWORD -- Good code
All Programmers Are Self-Taught
When I was a teenager I played high caliber baseball. I’m competitive to a fault and when I decide I want to be good at something, results usually follow. Now I’m a third year undergrad studying computer science. There’s something critically different between programming and sports though: A pitching coach teaches you how to pitch, but a CS professor doesn’t teach you how to code. I was surprised that neither my TAs nor professors critiqued my code during my firs...

Beauty of code : How to write graceful PHP code
Writing good code is an art. In order to achieve this, it is necessary to develop good programming habits at the beginning. Good programming habits not only contributes to the early project design (modular),but also allows you to the code easier to understand, so that the maintenance of the code is easier. Bad programming habits will result in more code bugs, and will make future maintenance work difficult. We introduce some good programming habits taking PHP as example. Hope this will help you....
<=> operator in MySQL
Have you ever seen "<=>" in a SQL query while using MySQL? Does it mean less and equals to and greater than? Actually if you consider it as the union of <= and =>, great, you are close to it. This is one form of equal operator in MySQL, it has the similar meaning to the = operator with some subtle difference. According to MySQL documentation, <=> is NULL-safe equal. This operator performs an equality comparison like the = operator, but returns 1 rather than NULL if both operand...
10 controversial programming opinions?
Every programmer has his/her own understanding about programming. His/her opinion may or may not be agreed by others since they may face different programming environment. Let's see ten controversial programming opinions. You may agree with these opinions or you may not agree with them or you have your own opinion. You can freely share with others by commenting below.1) The only “best practice†you should be using all the time is “Use Your Brainâ€.2) Programme...

GitHub Copilot may generate code containing GPL code
GitHub Copilot is a new AI-powered code completion tool that can generate code snippets from natural language descriptions. It is powered by OpenAI Codex, a deep learning system that has been trained on billions of lines of public code. GitHub Copilot claims to be a “copilot, not a pilot”, meaning that it is not intended to write code for you, but rather to help you write code faster and better. However, some developers have raised concerns about the legal and ethical implications of...

A Perl Regular Expression That Matches Prime Numbers
perl -lne '(1x$_) =~ /^1?$|^(11+?)\1+$/ || print "$_ is prime"' Can you figure out how it works? I give an explanation below, but try to figure it out yourself. Here is what happens when you run it: $ perl -lne '(1x$_) =~ /^1?$|^(11+?)\1+$/ || print "$_ is prime"' 1 2 2 is prime 3 3 is prime 4 5 5 is prime 6 7 7 is prime 8 9 10 11 11 is prime Here is how it works. First, the number is converted in its unary representation by (1x$_). For example, the number 5 gets converted into 1x5, which is ...

How to undo git changes?
When using git for version control, there is frequent need on undoing commits due to some unexpected changes. This post will introduce how to undo changes with git command in different cases. Undo commit A common undo case is that some commit needs to be reverted as the commit contains error. In this case, the code is already committed. The command to revert the commit is git revert HEAD This command will add new a commit to the existing head to undo the previous commit. It will not change the p...

Why would I learn C++11, having known C and C++?
I am a programmer in C and C++, although I don't stick to either language and write a mixture of the two. Sometimes having code in classes, possibly with operator overloading, or templates and the oh so great STL is obviously a better way. Sometimes use of a simple C function pointer is much much more readable and clear. So I find beauty and practicality in both languages. I don't want to get into the discussion of "If you mix them and compile with a C++ compiler, it's not a mix ...

C/C++ Pointer Declaration Syntax – It makes sense!
I never really liked the way pointers are declared in C/C++: int *a, *b, *c; // a, b and c are pointers to int The reason is that I am used to reading variable declarations as MyType myVar1, myVar2, myVar3; and I always read “int*†as the type “integer pointerâ€. I therefore wanted the following int* a, b, c; // a is a pointer to int, b and c are ints to mean that a, b and c all were of type int*, i.e. pointers to int. and I therefore found it slightly a...

Paint messages will come in as fast as you let them
There is a class of messages which are generated on demand rather than explicitly posted into a message queue. If you call GetÂMessage or PeekÂMessage and the queue is empty, then the window manager will look to see if one of these generated-on-demand messages is due, messages like WM_TIMER, WM_MOUSEÂMOVE, and WM_PAINT. Neil wonders, "In that program that called InvalidateÂRect 100,000 times, how many paint messages were generated?" The Zen answer to this question is "Yes." A ...
