Why does Python allow out-of-range slice indexes for sequences?

Part of question regarding out-of-range indices Slice logic automatically clips the indices to the length of the sequence. Allowing slice indices to extend past end points was done for convenience. It would be a pain to have to range check every expression and then adjust the limits manually, so Python does it for you. Consider … Read more

How can I get all sequences in an Oracle database?

select sequence_owner, sequence_name from dba_sequences; DBA_SEQUENCES — all sequences that exist ALL_SEQUENCES — all sequences that you have permission to see USER_SEQUENCES — all sequences that you own Note that since you are, by definition, the owner of all the sequences returned from USER_SEQUENCES, there is no SEQUENCE_OWNER column in USER_SEQUENCES.

Python: check if an object is a sequence

iter(x) will raise a TypeError if x cannot be iterated on — but that check “accepts” sets and dictionaries, though it “rejects” other non-sequences such as None and numbers. On the other hands, strings (which most applications want to consider “single items” rather than sequences) are in fact sequences (so, any test, unless specialcased for … Read more

Create a Vector of All Days Between Two Dates

You’re looking for seq > seq(as.Date(“2011-12-30”), as.Date(“2012-01-04″), by=”days”) [1] “2011-12-30” “2011-12-31” “2012-01-01” “2012-01-02” “2012-01-03” [6] “2012-01-04” Or, you can use : > as.Date(as.Date(“2011-12-30”):as.Date(“2012-01-04″), origin=”1970-01-01”) [1] “2011-12-30” “2011-12-31” “2012-01-01” “2012-01-02” “2012-01-03” [6] “2012-01-04″ Note that with : “Non-numeric arguments are coerced internally”. Thus, we convert back to class Date, using as.Date method for class ‘numeric’ and … Read more

Sequence-zip function for C++11?

Warning: boost::zip_iterator and boost::combine as of Boost 1.63.0 (2016 Dec 26) will cause undefined behavior if the length of the input containers are not the same (it may crash or iterate beyond the end). Starting from Boost 1.56.0 (2014 Aug 7) you could use boost::combine (the function exists in earlier versions but undocumented): #include <boost/range/combine.hpp> … Read more
