I have a list of 2-item tuples and I'd like to convert them to 2 lists where the first contains the first item in each tuple and the second list holds the second item. For example: original = [('a', 1), ('b', 2), ('c', 3), ('d', 4)] # and I want to become... result = (['a', 'b', 'c', 'd'], [1, 2, 3, 4]) Is there a builtin function th...
Not very technical, but... I have to implement a bad words filter in a new site we are developing. So I need a "good" bad words list to feed my db with... any hint / direction? Looking around with google I found this one, and it's a start, but nothing more. Yes, I know that this kind of filters are easily escaped... but the client will ...
I'm creating an app that holds loads of loads of user data in memory, and it's mostly keeping it all in List<T> structures (and some Dictionary<T,T> when I need lookup). And I'm wondering... How efficient are Lists? How much memory overhead do I get for each of them? (that is, memory space in addition to what the objects they contain w...
What would be your preferred way to concatenate strings from a sequence such that between each two consecutive pair a comma is added. That is, how do you map, for instance, [ 'a', 'b', 'c' ] to 'a,b,c'? (The cases [ s ] and [] should be mapped to s and '', respectively.) I usually end up using something like ''.join(map(lambda x: x+',',...

I have been searching everywhere for this functionality in lisp, and have gotten nowhere. find the index of something in a list. example: (index-of item InThisList) replace something at a specific spot in a list. example: (replace item InThisList AtThisIndex) ;i think this can be done with 'setf'? return an item at a specific index. ...
I have defined a custom Sharepoint list for special attributes related to a software application inventory and installed it as a feature. I also want to group these attributes in categories. How could I change the Sharepoint page that allows the user to add a column to a list, so that when the user adds a column to my custom list type (c...
I have a function that gets x(a value) and xs(a list) and removes all values that are bigger than x from the list. Well it doesn't work, can you tell me why? (defun biggerElems(x xs) (let ((xst)) (dolist (elem xs) (if (> x elem) (setf xst (remove elem xs)))) xst)) ...
I need a list of integers from 1 to x where x is set by the user. I could build it with a for loop eg assuming x is an integer set previously: List<int> iList = new List<int>(); for (int i = 1; i <= x; i++) { iList.Add(i); } This seems dumb, surely there's a more elegant way to do this, something like the PHP range method ...
How do I figure out if an array contains an element? I thought there might be something like [1,2,3].includes(1) which would evaluate as 'true' ...
I frequently find myself writing code like this: List<int> list = new List<int> { 1, 3, 5 }; foreach (int i in list) { Console.Write("{0}\t", i.ToString()); } Console.WriteLine(); Better would be something like this: List<int> list = new List<int> { 1, 3, 5 }; Console.WriteLine("{0}\t", list); I suspect there's some clever way ...
For example, if passed the following: a = [] How do I check to see if a is empty? ...
Hello, I've recently been working on a beginner's project in Scala, and have a beginner question about Scala's Lists. Say I have a list of tuples ( List[Tuple2[String, String]], for example). Is there a convenience method to return the first occurence of a specified tuple from the List, or is it necessary to iterate through the list by...
Say I have a linked list of numbers of length N. N is very large and I don’t know in advance the exact value of N. How can I most efficiently write a function that will return k completely random numbers from the list? ...
Does any one know how do I get the current open windows or process of a local machine using Java? What I'm trying to do is: list the current open task, windows or process open, like in Windows Taskmanager, but using a multi-platform approach - using only Java if it's possible. Thanks! ...
Dictionaries unlike lists are not ordered (and do not have the 'sort' attribute). Therefore, you can not rely on getting the items in the same order when first added. What is the easiest way to loop through a dictionary containing strings as the key value and retrieving them in ascending order by key? For example, you had this: d = {...
Hi, I have a content query web part that queries by content type against a site collection. I have grouped it by content type so I have: -- Agenda (Content Type) ----Agenda #1 ----Agenda #2 -- Report (Content Type) ----Report #1 ----Report #2 I would like to show a second grouping for site, so: -- Agenda (Content Type) ----This Site...
I got a list of dictionaries and want that to be sorted by a value of that dictionary. This [{'name':'Homer', 'age':39}, {'name':'Bart', 'age':10}] sorted by name, should become [{'name':'Bart', 'age':10}, {'name':'Homer', 'age':39}] ...
I've built a web part for Sharepoint that retrieves data from an external service. I'd like to display the items in a way that's UI-compatible with Sharepoint (fits in with its surroundings.) I'm aware of the "DataFormWebPart" but was unable to get one working properly. It requires a valid DataSource and I was unable to build one from...
