I recently found the code below in one of my directories, in a file called doc.php. The file functions or links to a file manager. It's quite nicely done. Basically, it lists all the files in the current directory, and it lets you change directories. It had access to all my files (add, rename, info, delete...). I don't remember installi...

In PHP you need to use preg_quote() to escape all the characters in a string that have a particular meaning in a regular expression, to allow (in example) preg_match() to search for those special characters. What is the equivalent in Ruby of the following code? // The content of this variable is obtained from user input, in example. $s...
From this article, /^1?$|^(11+?)\1+$/ checks whether a number(its value in unary) is prime or not. Using this, perl -l -e '(1 x $_) !~ /^1?$|^(11+?)\1+$/ && print while ++$_;' returns a list of prime numbers.
