Update: In response to the comments and worries surrounding the original suggestion (comparing 2 JSON strings), you could use this function: function compareObjects(o, p) { var i, keysO = Object.keys(o).sort(), keysP = Object.keys(p).sort(); if (keysO.length !== keysP.length) return false;//not the same nr of keys if (keysO.join(”) !== keysP.join(”)) return false;//different keys for (i=0;i<keysO.length;++i) { if … Read more
That is because the actual Z value is the sum of the elevation and the translationZ From the docs, the elevation is “base z depth of the view” and this is a static variable, while translationZ is dynamic. So elevation is your start value and for animations you should use translationZ. Source
You’re missing a key exception to the usual behaviour: when the right-hand operand is an instance of a subclass of the class of the left-hand operand, the special method for the right-hand operand is called first. See the documentation at: http://docs.python.org/reference/datamodel.html#coercion-rules and in particular, the following two paragraphs: For objects x and y, first x.__op__(y) … Read more
A char variable is actually an 8-bit integral value. It will have values from 0 to 255. These are almost always ASCII codes, but other encodings are allowed. 0 stands for the C-null character, and 255 stands for an empty symbol. So, when you write the following assignment: char a=”a”; It is the same thing … Read more
The Levenshtein distance is the algorithm I would recommend. It calculates the minimum number of operations you must do to change 1 string into another. The fewer changes means the strings are more similar…
For comparing numbers, there is math.isclose. For comparing numbers or arrays, there is numpy.allclose. For testing numbers or arrays, there is numpy.testing.assert_allclose
I’ve written my own script that does something similar to what you’re asking for. The script uses 4 tools to achieve its goal: ImageMagick’s compare command the pdftk utility (if you have multipage PDFs) Ghostscript (optional) md5sum (optional) It should be quite easy to port this to a .bat batch file for DOS/Windows. But first, … Read more
Java doesn’t (yet) have a good built-in Time class (it has one for JDBC queries, but that’s not what you want). One option would be use the JodaTime APIs and its LocalTime class. Sticking with just the built-in Java APIs, you are stuck with java.util.Date. You can use a SimpleDateFormat to parse the time, then … Read more
Check out this article: Boxed values and equality When comparing wrapper types such as Integers, Longs or Booleans using == or !=, you’re comparing them as references, not as values. If two variables point at different objects, they will not == each other, even if the objects represent the same value. Example: Comparing different Integer … Read more
You can make Query string using GET parameters like this request.GET.urlencode() This does not include the ? prefix, and it may not return the keys in the same order as in the original request.
