I'm trying to compare the data within two files, and retrieve a list of offsets of where the differences are. I tried it on some text files and it worked quite well.. However on non-text files (that still contain ascii text), I call them binary data files. (executables, so on..) It seems to think some bytes are the same, even though whe...
What's the difference between Gambit-C and Chicken? ...
Assume that i have written a program in C++ without using RTTI and run-time polymorphism (no virtual function, no virtual inheritance) and classes don't have private/protected members, also the C++ specific header files are not used (i.e. C header files are used: cstring, cstdio, ... instead of string, iostream, ...). Then i want to wri...
Possible Duplicate: Most efficient way to test equality of lambda expressions I was wondering how LINQ expression instances compare for equality. It seems that the expression classes do not implement IEquatable or IComparable or anything alike. Let me give you some background information: I've implemented a caching mechanism ...
I have two arrays of products, both formatted exactly the same, like so: $products = array( [0] => array( ['product_id'] => 33 ['variation_id'] => 0 ['product_price'] => 500.00 ), [1] => array( ['product_id'] => 48 ['variation_id'] => 0 ['product_price'] => 600.00 ), ) I ...

Hello I am considering to start using Pexpect. On Pexpects homepage I find this: Q: Why not just use Expect? A: I love it. It's great. I has bailed me out of some real jams, but I wanted something that would do 90% of what I need from Expect; be 10% of the size; and allow me to write my code in Python instead of TC...
How does Perforce compare to Team Foundation Server (TFS). Here at work, we have used Perforce (Which I like very much btw) exclusively. On the other hand, I'm sorry I have never used TFS. I'm interested in TFS though, however I cannot make a judgement call as to the difference. What are the advantages of using each over the other? ...
I noticed that a lot of tutorial instructions often have this code: $sql="SELECT * from table"; $num=mysql_num_rows(); if ($num > 0) { do something } Why do they have to use that condition "if ($num > 0)" when I write this code that I think is compact and readable: $sql="SELECT * from table"; $itExists=mysql_num_rows(); if ($itExis...

Hi, i have a huge list of two-element tuples which are coordinates of segments (start, end). In this way in a list below list = [ (1,4), (2, 3), (10, 20), (18, 45) ] there are 4 segments with their start and end localization. I would like to remove segments that overlap. I expect to have a list like this as a result: list = [ (1,4...

I have a problem understanding a Fortran statement which i think has caused a nasty bug in our systems.... if (instructions .lt. ' ') then instructions = ' ' endif instructio...
Hi All, I have a manufacturing-process issue I tackled ages ago in VBA, and it's held up for some time now although it's progressively running slower and slower as more data gets into the file. I think it's finally time to rewrite a more elegant solution in a different language, outside of VBA, but am curious if anyone knows of this be...
It would be interesting to contrast these two new languages by several aspects: What are their design influences? Where do they intersect in their goals / where do they rival? Where are they distinct? For which tasks is one or the other better suited? What is your outlook on these languages? That is, which niche will D resp. Go fill? ...

Can some one explain (or quote a reference) to compare the scoring mechanism used by SOLR and LUCENE in simpler words. Is there any difference in them; I am not that good at solr/lucene but my finding showed as if they are different. P.S: i just tries a simple query like "+Contents:risk" and didn't use any filter other stuff. ...
