This is too basic I think, but how do both of these work? return true; // 1 and return (true); // 2 Similar: sizeof, exit My guess: If return was a function, 1 would be erroneous. So, return should be a unary operator that can also take in brackets... pretty much like unary minus: -5 and -(5), both are okay. ...
hi, i've got two lists A and B, B = A + C - D. All elements are unique, no duplicates. How do i get the lists of: (1) the new items added, C (2) the old items removed, D C and D aren't more than 10000 elements or so. Edit Crap, sorry guys - forgot the important detail - these are both text files, not in memory elements. ...

I'm a java programmer and am trying to understand the difference between a method (java methods) and a function (such as in c++). I used to think that they are the same, just different naming conventions for different programming languages. But now that I know they are not, I am having trouble understanding the difference. I know that...
/is n00b Through the gift of knowledge and expertise encoded here, I am doing my best to avoid n00b mistakes as I learn the basics of programming. I use functions when I (think I) can in PHP, and keep them somewhat sorted in different includes. The n00b problem I'm running into now is situations where perhaps 4/5th of an existing func...

I'm trying to name a function that runs when a character is received by the object. For the caller, it should be named sendCharacter, so that it can call: object->sendCharacter( character ) ; That looks nice for the caller.. but for the receiver, it implements a method /// Called when this object is do something /// with a character...
I see that quite often in some Jquery plugins $('#foo').myPlugin({ foo: 'bar', bar: 'foo' }); I'm talking about the {} in the .myPlugin() part. I see quite often anonymous functions like .click(function(){ }); but the above syntax looks different thanks for your help! ...

Now, I want to add an event listener to this class and test for existence of the callback. I'm doing like so: this.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER, function(event:MouseEvent) : void { if (callback) { ...

Why doesn't this print 5? void writeValue(int* value) { value = malloc(sizeof(int)); *value = 5; } int main(int argc, char * argv) { int* value = NULL; writeValue(value); printf("value = %d\n", *value); // error trying to access 0x00000000 } and how can I modify this so it would work while still using a pointer a...
So I was wondering how they work. To explain what I mean by a "function caller" a good example of what I mean would be glutTimerFunc, it is able to take in a function as a parameter and call it even with it not knowing it is declared. How is it doing this? ...
Hi in this question: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2779155/template-point2-double-point3-double Dennis and Michael noticed the unreasonable foolishly implemented constructor. They were right, I didn't consider this at that moment. But I found out that a constructor does not help very much for a template class like this one, instead ...
I have used the jQuery inArray function, but Eclipse tells me that this function is undefined. I don't understand how this can be so if it comes from the jQuery API. preId is an integer, and queryPreds is an array. Previously I was doing the if() statement a different way, which was tedious and prone to error but generally worked. I re...
The more I develop iPhone apps, the more reusable functions I write. At the moment I just copy them into the .m files that need them. But would it be better to have a separate .m file and #import it instead? I don't wish to compile a library, I just want to know how other folks have handled this. Thanks. Clarification: I want other .m f...
This is, perhaps, a silly question, but it's something that I've wondered about: is it possible to, say, define a Ruby/Python/Perl/etc. function in some file and then source it in Bash (to make it available anywhere in the current shell)? At the moment, I "source" scripts/functions in other languages by creating a bash alias that execut...
