The common way is the format() function: >>> s = “This is an {example} with {vars}”.format(vars=”variables”, example=”example”) >>> s ‘This is an example with variables’ It works fine with a multi-line format string: >>> s=””‘\ … This is a {length} example. … Here is a {ordinal} line.\ … ”’.format(length=”multi-line”, ordinal=”second”) >>> print(s) This is a … Read more
If the text you’re putting in the TextView is short, it will not automatically expand to four lines. If you want the TextView to always have four lines regardless of the length of the text in it, set the android:lines attribute: <TextView android:id=”@+id/address1″ android:gravity=”left” android:layout_height=”fill_parent” android:layout_width=”wrap_content” android:maxLines=”4″ android:lines=”4″ android:text=”Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipisicing … Read more
node v4 and current versions of node As of ES6 (and so versions of Node greater than v4), a new “template literal” intrinsic type was added to Javascript (denoted by back-ticks “`”) which can also be used to construct multi-line strings, as in: `this is a single string` which evaluates to: ‘this is a\nsingle string’. … Read more
Here is a solution to the problem. It is a subclass of TextView that actually works for ellipsizing. The android-textview-multiline-ellipse code listed in an earlier answer I have found to be buggy in certain circumstances, as well as being under GPL, which doesn’t really work for most of us. Feel free to use this code … Read more
If it looks ugly, just remove the unnecessary ToCharArray call. If you want to split by either \n or \r, you’ve got two options: Use an array literal – but this will give you empty lines for Windows-style line endings \r\n: var result = text.Split(new [] { ‘\r’, ‘\n’ }); Use a regular expression, as indicated … Read more
I use #3. Same for long lists, tuples, etc. It doesn’t require adding any extra spaces beyond the indentations. As always, be consistent. mydict = { “key1”: 1, “key2”: 2, “key3”: 3, } mylist = [ (1, ‘hello’), (2, ‘world’), ] nested = { a: [ (1, ‘a’), (2, ‘b’), ], b: [ (3, ‘c’), … Read more
Andrey Tarasevich provides the following explanation: On Google Groups On bytes.com [Minor changes to formatting made. Parenthetical annotations added in square brackets []]. The whole idea of using ‘do/while’ version is to make a macro which will expand into a regular statement, not into a compound statement. This is done in order to make the … Read more
You could do this while in pdb to launch a temporary interactive Python session with all the local variables available: (pdb) !import code; code.interact(local=vars()) Python 2.6.5 (r265:79063, Apr 16 2010, 13:57:41) [GCC 4.4.3] on linux2 Type “help”, “copyright”, “credits” or “license” for more information. (InteractiveConsole) >>> When you’re done, use Ctrl-D to return to the … Read more
Okay, I just found the answer (on Stackoverflow, no less). Eclipse has an option so that copy-paste of multi-line text into String literals will result in quoted newlines: Preferences/Java/Editor/Typing/ “Escape text when pasting into a string literal”
Use android:gravity=”top”
