This week's post is a continuation of the last's regarding "stereotype threat". Our task here is to express a number of our closely held values. I presume that this is to help adjust our perspective of ourselves as individuals rather than members of a group. I don't fully understand and this seems like a waste of time. With that said, here we go:
The thing that makes me happiest is friendship, something that I feel like I have very little of these days. I had a number of very close friends at my college, and I attempted to live together with them for a short period. That ended poorly and I have not spoken with them since. I really want to make a number of good friends at Dev Bootcamp but once bitten twice shy.
As for other values (which I am supposed to rate 1-5 based upon how much I have been pushing towards them? This makes no sense.) there is
As for the last time I helped someone, I was asked to help someone install sqlite on their computer last week, and I essentially run tech support for my whole family.
In the end, this was supposed to make me feel more confident, but has only raised more doubts. Dev Bootcamp and I appear to have somewhat different views on how things work, and calling attention to it only makes me more nervous. I know who I am, the real question is about Dev Bootcamp.


Goldkey is the musical alias of New York artist Mike Horn.
Working with producer Ben Rice (Norah Jones, The Candles, Queue, Daughter) at Degraw Sound in Brooklyn, Goldkey has crafted tunes that are one part indie pop, one part indie folk, or as tastemakers Emerging Indie Bands call it —“slipwave”.
Goldkey’s first single “Mountain” was featured on Spotify playlists, TuneCore's The New and Indie Mono's Indie Folk Chill. Goldkey followed this release with the driving psychedelia of “What Am I Supposed To Do?” which led to dates supporting artists Eighty Ninety, Elliot & the Ghost and a headline appearance at the 2017 official Jeff Buckley tribute concert.
Goldkey will play summer 2018 festival dates and select NorthEast dates in support of his upcoming single “Faster”, to be released March 2nd.

In this post I am going to describe what steps are necessary to create an app in React Native. The example I want to build is the same one I created during my Cocoaheads talk. If you would like to see this in action or get more information check out my last post here.
Installing dependencies
You may already know this: in Javascript it is all about dependencies. The language itself is pretty easy and does not have a lot functionality. In other environments you have rich SDKs (like iOS/Android SDK, .Net, …) in Javascript this is mostly not the case. Since you do not want to reinvent the wheel with every project it is common to use different libraries for different tasks.
I am not sure if this is a good or a bad thing. In general using dependencies makes you depending on those, that is where the name is coming from. But it is still good to see that the community created solutions for everything and it is very easy to build on top of that.
To install the dependencies you need to create this example app I recommend using the package managers brew and yarn. yarn is a replacement for the node package manager (npm) built by Facebook. It is not needed, you can also use npm. Just translate my given yarn commands to npm commands (mostly replace add
by install
).
# install node, watchman and yarn via brew
$ brew install node watchman yarn
# install the command line tool to create a pre-configured React Native app
$ yarn global add create-react-native-app
It is not needed to create a React Native app via the command line interface; you could instead also configure all the files by your own. To create an app execute the following command:
$ create-react-native-app AwesomeProject
$ cd AwesomeProject # change directory to the created one
The creacted file structure should look similiar to this:
.
|-- App.js
|-- App.test.js
|-- README.md
|-- app.json
|-- node_modules
| `-- …
|-- package.json
`-- yarn.lock
Inside the package.json
there are a few defined commands you can use via yarn
. start
starts the development server (useful when the app is already compiled and installed in the simulator). android
and ios
compiles the respective platform native app and opens an iOS simulator or Android emulator. As it is native code, it takes some time to finish but it is not necessary to do this often or even twice. test
starts jest to execute tests written for the app code.
Another one is eject
which changes the structure of the whole directory. Currently the setup is built on top of Expo which makes it possible to create React Native apps written on your computer and run them immediately in your devices via the Expo native app. This is very cool since you don’t even need to have the SDKs (Xcode/Android Studio) installed. The drawback is that you do not even have a dedicated native project so it is not possible to upload the app to the App/Play Store for example. It is also not possible to create native extensions for your app.
eject
fixes this by re-structuring your app. After running
$ yarn eject
your file structure should look like this:
.
|-- App.js
|-- App.test.js
|-- README.md
|-- android
| |-- app
| | |-- BUCK
| | |-- build.gradle
| | |-- …
|-- app.json
|-- index.android.js
|-- index.ios.js
|-- ios
| |-- AwesomeProject
| | |-- AppDelegate.h
| | |-- …
|-- node_modules
| `-- …
|-- package.json
`-- yarn.lock
It is recommended to delete the node_modules
folder and run yarn install
to refresh the installation of the dependencies. Be aware that this operation is permanent and can not be revoked!
Building the app
Since this blog post is only about getting started I would like to create a very simple project showing recipes for a hard coded ingredients list. The data is coming from Receipt Puppy and will be requested via http://www.recipepuppy.com/api/?i=eggs,bread
, so our ingredients are eggs and bread.
Since we would like to use FlatList
we need to use some unstable versions of react and react-native. Replace the dependencies in the package.json file with this:
"dependencies": {
"react": "16.0.0-alpha.6",
"react-native": "0.44.0-rc.0"
}
After yarn install
we are ready to start. In the app we open the App.js and replace the class App
with the following code:
export default class App extends React.Component {
constructor(props) {
super(props)
this.state = {
data: []
};
}
componentWillMount() {
fetch('http://www.recipepuppy.com/api/?i=eggs,bread')
.then(response => response.json())
.then(json => this.setState({data: json.results.map((e, i) => {
return {
title: e.title,
key: i + Date.now()
}
})}));
}
render() {
return (
<View style={{flex: 1}}>
<FlatList style={{height: '100%', width: '100%'}}
data={this.state.data}
renderItem={item => <Cell title={item.item.title} />}
/>
</View>
);
}
}
As you see, wee set the state to an initial value in the constructor of the class. In the componentWillMount
lifecycle method we execute the http request and reload the state with the manipulated data (we only want to see the title). For rendering the items we pass in a function which returns a Cell
. Cell
is another component we define in this file:
class Cell extends React.Component {
render() {
return (
<View>
<Text>{this.props.title}</Text>
</View>
);
}
}
To keep things simple we only display the title of the meal with any more user interface.
You can now build the app and run it by executing yarn ios
in the Terminal. You will realize that it is not working. After all React-Native is a wrapper over UIKit; so every http request is implemented using URLRequest
. Apple introduced earlier that iOS apps only allow https calls by default. The webservice we are using is (unfortunately) not available via https, so we need to define an exception in the Info.plist
. Open the Info.plist
file by typing open ios/AwesomeProject/Info.plist
in the Terminal. You should add an entry ‘Allow Arbitrary Loads’ to the ‘App Transport Security Settings’ entry with a value of ‘YES’.
After that change the app needs to be re-compiled by executing yarn ios
. Then you should see a screen similiar to this:
Yes, it is not pretty but already functional! Using other components like Image
or TextInput
could improve this also. Feel free to add additionally functionality and improvements in the design!

#include <stMetricEvaluator.h>
Public Member Functions | |
| virtual stDistance | GetDistance (stObject *obj1, stObject *obj2)=0 |
| virtual stDistance | GetDistance2 (stObject *obj1, stObject *obj2)=0 |
This abstract class implements the stMetricEvaluator interface. This interface is required by the metric distance functions that will be used by the metric trees implemented by this library. Since these metric trees are implemented as class templates, any class that implements all methods defined in this interface may be used by a metric tree.
The class required by stSlimTree to calculate the metric distances must have 2 distinct methods. One of them, GetDistance(), must return the distance itself while the other, GetDistance2(), must return the same value raised by the power of 2.
They are defined as distinct methods because some procedures will require one or both of these values. Since some distance functions may have better algorithms for the distance or distance raised by 2, its better to keep both implementations. For example, the Euclidean function has a better algorithm for the distance raised by 2 than for the distance itself.
This functional separation exists to avoid things such as which is an undesireble situation because square roots are not cheap.
As an optional function, a metric evaluator is the responsible to compute the number of distances calculated WHEN IT IS REQUIRED (it is not used by the Structure Layer).
The implementation of this feature has no standard interface and may be implemented freely but to make the implementation easier, there is a class called stMetricEvaluatorStatistics that implements the basic functions necessary to accomplish this task.
This class may be used as the base class for classes that implements the metric evaluators which will be used by a metric tree to compute distances but it is not recommended.

Register for notifications on layout change. The given block will be called whenever the layout changes - this could be due to making an app fullscreen, changing a space name, or changing the layout of the TotalSpaces2 grid. There are no arguments passed to the block.
TotalSpaces2.on_layout_change {puts "Spaces changed"} sleep
When you get a notification from this method, you should re-fetch any information about the spaces that you may be storing.
There can only be one block registered at any time, the most recently registered one will be called.

Get a list of all the windows on your mac It returns an array containing a hash for each window. The hash contains the display id (key :display_id) and space number (key :space_number) and details for each window. The windows are in front to back order within each space. Each window hash also contains a window_id, title, frame, app_name and is_on_all_spaces flag
The below example would move the frontmost window to the next space to the right.

Advanced Git
03:15 PM - 03:40 PM on July 17, 2016, Room CR7David Baumgold
- Audience level:
- intermediate
Description
You know clone, commit, push, and pull. Now you're ready for the fun stuff. This talk will give you the advanced knowledge you need to take control of your Git repository: rebase, cherry-pick, bisect, blame, squashing, and the reflog. You'll also get a better conceptual understanding of how Git works, allowing you to chain these tools together to accomplish whatever task you need.
Abstract
Git is a powerful tool for describing and maintaining the history of a project, but most people never get beyond the basics. By giving you the ability to rewrite history (with the safety of never truly losing information), git allows you to craft a history that is more true to the intent of your changes, rather than one filled with countless "oops" and "fixed typo" commits. Of course, with great power comes great responsibility, and it is important to wield your time-travelling powers with restraint. In this talk, you'll learn how to clean up your history without confusing others, as well as how to recover if things go wrong.
You'll also learn more about the conceptual model behind git and how to bend it to your will. Once you understand how commits and branches really work, you can compose your git tools to do what you want. Need to insert a commit in the middle of a branch? See who introduced the bug two weeks ago that surfaced in production today? Resolve merge conflicts cleanly? Break a large commits into several smaller ones, or squash several smaller ones together into one? With git, you can do it.


You can use any repository on Github as the template for RepoCreator. If you'd like to create your own template, just create your project like you normally would but anywhere you would type a repo-specific string, instead type magic_variable_magic, magic.variable.magic or magic-variable-magic.
For example, if you have the following tag in your template's HTML file:
<title>magic_app_name_magic</title>
When you create a new project from the template you will be prompted for the replacement of app_name
. If you set the value to My Cool App
, then in the new repo you will have this:
<title>My Cool App</title>
We accept all of programming languages and frameworks you can think of simply put the magic strings in your source code and go.
Create a file in the root of your template repository named LICENSE
with the contents from CC0 LICENSE.
Only the first 30 search result from Github are displayed. You can use the Github Search Syntax to narrow your results. As an example, to search for a template of your own then search for: user:your_username your_reponame
.
Currently we only support GitHub but we have plans to support other git hosting solutions in the future.
Other templating engines solve the same problem with syntax like {variable}
or @variable@
. While this technique does result in shorter replacement strings, it also results in a project that is probably invalid in its template form. By using only alphabetic characters for the preefix and postpix and _
, -
and .
for the separator, the template will be valid for compilation and usage in most languages/frameworks. This makes it easy to test your template and ensure it is usable before using it. It also allows you to run tools like a linter or other static analyzers on the template itself.


You are more or less free to use any editor of your choice. With {{ names.abbr( 'ide' ) }}s the integration process might cause a little trouble and depends on your build tool of choice. Please refer to the {{ sitelink( 'editor' ) }} chapter for further information. The recommended tool is {{ names.name( 'intellij-idea' ) }}, which is also used as reference throughout the documentation.

I have always loved smocked outfits.  It took until a couple of months before Scarlett turned 1 for me to finally try my hand at it. I took one class to get me started and I haven't looked back since. I had always put it in the too hard basket, although, of course, it wasn't as hard as I had believed it to be!
I must admit that I haven't made many outfits in the last couple of years. I seem to get part way through an outfit, get interrupted (like having to cook dinner, house work, go to bed etc., etc.), put the outfit away (because of course I craft at the dining table) only to find that the recipient is too big for the outfit when I finally get back to trying to finish it. So back it goes into my unfinished projects stash, potentially never seeing the light of day again.
Here is a sample of what I have made and actually finished! I have more, but will have to sift through our photo's that were pre-digital to find them. Now if only I knew where I have stored them??

This game is played in the following 13x13 square board:
- BATTERIES - The neutral stones (red in the diagram) that allow pieces to move.
- A player controls a battery if he has at least as many friendly stones as the enemy on diagonal adjacent cells.
- TURN - On each turn, each player executes two sequences:
- First - move one or more friendly stones (called robots).
- A robot only moves orthogonally forward or sideways always a pair of cells (meaning that robots can never move to cells occupied by batteries) to an empty cell or to a cell occupied by an enemy robot (which is captured).
- Robots may also jump orthogonally adjacent friendly robots and landing on the immediate next cell (always by pairs of cells!) which must be empty or occupied by an enemy robot (which is captured).
- However, these moves have a cost:
- Move N pairs of cells (on a straight line) - N credits
- Capture an adjacent enemy robot - 2 credits
- Jump - 2 credits
- Jump and capture - 4 credits
- The available number of credits to a certain robot is the number of adjacent controlled batteries.
- On each turn, each battery can only be used to activate one robot (if the player is moving lots of robots, it is best to temporarily mark them during the turn).
- Second - move zero or more controlled batteries.
- A battery makes orthogonally jumps, landing on an empty cell. If a battery would land on a cell occupied by a battery, the jump must continue until it reaches an empty cell.
- GOAL - A player wins if half of his remaining robots are on the last row (the 12th row), or the adversary cannot move at least one robot.
Again, notice that robots will never occupy the same cells as batteries. Every move is made over pairs of cells.
Some examples The black piece at b10 cannot move (it does not control any battery).
The black piece at l12 controls 2 batteries and so may jump over j12 landing on h12.
The black piece at j10 only controls 3 batteries (the battery at i9 is adjacent to two white robots). So, he cannot jump over j8 to capture j6, but he can capture j6.
The battery at k3 can move to k1, g3 or k13

ALIENS (1986) A Film Review by Ted Prigge Copyright 1997 Ted Prigge
Director: James Cameron Writer: James Cameron (story by James Cameron, David Giler, and Walter Hill) Starring: Sigourney Weaver, Carrie Henn, Paul Reiser, Michael Biehn, Lance Henriksen, Bill Paxton, William Hope, Jenette Goldstein, Al Matthews, Mark Rolston, Ricco Ross, Colette Hiller
After re-watching "Aliens" after a couple years, I silently sat there on my bed throughout the end credits without making any sudden moves. This is what this film does to you: it leaves you completely drained, just like the characters in this movie. Some say that the fact that this is exhausting is a major flaw; I say it's ingenius filmmaking, not a shock from James Cameron.
"Aliens" is the sequel to the 1979 classic, "Alien" (duh), where a group of seven were stalked by an acid-burning, shaft-crawling, belligerent alien, and where only one survived: Ellen Ripley (Sigourney Weaver). The film takes place 57 years after the first one, but Ripley has been in the same hibernation she entered into at the end of the previous film, but is luckily woken up by some deep space workers or something.
After a nice little introduction, where Ripley is introduced to the deceptfully slimy Burke (Paul Reiser), a government worker who seems to be Ripley's friend, but asks her to go back to the planet where they found the alien in the first film, since the stupid government has sent about 70 families over there to live, and have lost contact. After some soul-searching (spanning a whole day, and a bad dream), she agrees to go as an "advisor" in what is a military operation.
 Most of the cocky soldiers are quickly and ironically killed off, leaving about eight people left to fend off the aliens by themself. After the only way back to the mother ship is destroyed, and with the threat of alien invasion at any moment, the film from this point becomes a non-stop gradual ascent of pure adrenalized tension.
First off, "Alien" and "Aliens" seem completely different. Some may bitch, but I ask you: do you like seeing the same thing over and over and over and over again (i.e. the "Home Alone" series, which just released a third installment - yeasnorebitchwail). The first one, as directed by Ridley Scott, is a wonderful film, filled with great tension, and directed with great creepy control. James Cameron, not one for slow films with Kubrickian minutes (or hours) of human silence and inhuman noises, has taken a compeltely different approach.
He, instead, takes us right into the field of combat, making us feel like we're right there beside Ripley and the surviving soldiers, waiting until the aliens invade the confines of their space, and probably kill them mercilessly. From the hour point on, "Aliens" holds us in its grasp, and doesn't let us go until the remaining characters (or character...) are finally sleeping after a long period of cringe-inducing, coffee-spilling, nail-biting, finger-tapping tension.
Cameron, who has directed such big films as the two Terminator films, "The Abyss," "True Lies," and the upcoming "Titanic" (to which I'm counting down the days), is a genius director with a big budget. Instead of giving us drivel, like "Independence Day" and "Stargate" (wow! both directed by Roland Emmeurich! who woulda guessed?), Cameron wows us with special effects, bowls us over with an interesting story, and amazes us with interesting characters. Ripley continues to grow as interesting character, having lost her daughter due to the fact that she was hibernation for 57 years and she had died before she got back (a great scene which is deleted in the video copy), she finds solace in the young Newt (Carrie Henn), a little girl who's family was killed by the aliens, but has, herself, survived for a long time by staying away from them. They share a touching, though never melodramatic and/or corny, relationship which gives the film additional depth.
The marines in the film are really not as well drawn as these two, but still carry some great satirical wit along with them.  When Ripley briefs them before they go down about the aliens, one of them - the butch chick Vasquz (Jenette Goldstein) - says "I just need to know one thing: where they are." They're cockiness pays a sorry price, as they are confronted with acid-burning, more-belliegerent-than-Saddam-Hussein-on-percodan aliens who wipe most of them out in a harrowingly creepy scene, to which we only see brief shots.
Another satirical part of the film deals with the usual "Alien" government, which is, of course, trying to bring the aliens back for scientific research and all. The government is wonderfully represented in the form of Burke (the brilliantly cast Paul Reiser), a charmingly witty and innocent-feeling member of government, who turns out wants to have the aliens planted in the soldiers' bodies. Reiser gives the film a comic air (even if he doesn't have a lot of zingy one-liners, a good thing in my book), and also does a great job with manipulating us into thinking that he's not such a bad guy.
The film appears to have some minor flaws, like not much characterization, a lack of respect for the other alien (what is the alien feeling), and a seemingly cheap ending tacked on for some more shocks. But. This all adds to the overall fun of the film. If it was too philosophical, and overly cerebral, the film would probably lose its touch. Let "2001" do the cerebral, which is why that is brilliant. "Aliens" is brilliant because of the way its directed. And who says that big budget action pics can't be brilliant?
Other additional notes should be made to whoever did the efx, which are absolutely brilliant, to some of the actors (most notably Weaver, Reiser, Biehn, Paxton - who's annoying but good - Goldstein, and, strangely enough, Henriksen, who gives his most lively performance - save that bizarro episode of "Millenium" where he had blond hair...not that I watch that show - as an android), and to James Horner, who has scored an absolutely brilliant score from start to finish. However, a note should be made that the opening and closing music is a piece from "2001."
But writer/director James Cameron gets the best note. In what is probably his best film so far (along with "T2"), "Aliens" is a filmmaking tour de force. He holds a state of tension throughout, so much that people can come out of it emotionally ravaged. As I said, I was shaking afterwards, and in his review, Roger Ebert said it left him depressed. But even if it may leave a negative reaction, that was what Cameron was going for, and it is nothing less than a brilliant example of sheer film craftsmanship.

- A Note About Quiz Days: I expect that everyone is working through the suggested problems in the book. On quiz days, I will spend the first few minutes of class discussing specific problems from the book that you wish to review (e.g., "I struggled with Problem 15 in Section 1.5. Can you review this?"). I will NOT pick problems from the book to cover in class, as it eats up valuable review time and this is really your responsibility.
Announcements
- Final Exam: The final exam is scheduled for December 11 from 9:00-11:30 AM in the Monday/Wednesday classroom. You are expected to take the Final Exam at the scheduled time. Make-ups will NOT be permitted, except in the case of documented emergencies. Oversleeping is NOT an emergency. The final exam will include questions from P.1 (only on rational numbers), and is otherwise cumulative for the portions of Chapters 1-11 that we have covered. While the final exam will not pull questions directly from P.2-P.6, the skills from those sections are necessary to solve problems in later sections. So make sure you are comfortable with this material.
- 12/3: We will finish up 11.2-11.3 on 12/4-12/5. We will use 12/6-12/7, as well as any extra time at the end of 12/5, as review days for the final exam. Come prepared with materials on which to work.
-
11/29: The quiz for 11/30 has been moved to Monday 12/4. It will still cover 7.1-7.3. I have made available the remaining homework assignments on MyMathLab. The 11.1-11.2 assignments are due on 12/4, and the 11.3 assignment is due on 12/5.
There are also two homework assignments for 8.1 and 8.2, which are due on 12/7. The 8.1 and 8.2 assignments are optional bonus assignments, which will replace your lowest two homework assignments if this is to your benefit. If you have missed a couple homework assignments, this is a good way to make up for it. The 8.1-8.2 assignments cover solving systems of linear equations. I am assuming this is a review from high school, and your calculus instructors will expect you to know this next semester. Make sure you have a handle on this material before next semester. Don't hesitate to reach out if you have any questions.
- 11/26: We have MyMathLab homework for 7.1 due on 11/29, MyMathLab 7.2 due on 11/30, and MyMathLab 7.3 due on 12/3. We will have a quiz on 11/30, which will cover 7.1-7.2 and tentatively 7.3.
-
Exam 3 will be on Tuesday November 21, the day before Thanksgiving break. You are expected to take Exam 3 on 11/21. Remember that
travel plans are NOT excused absences. Please plan accordingly.
Exam 3 will cover sections 2.2-6.3.
- 11/16: The Exam on 11/21 will no longer cover 6.4. You will only be tested on 2.2-6.3 (though you are welcome to use material from 6.4, provided you do so correctly). The MyMathLab 6.4 assignment is now due on 11/27, the Monday after Thanksgiving break.
- 11/14: The MyMathLab 6.4 assignment is now due on 11/17. I have also prepared a solution to today's quiz. Note that for problems similar to Problem 1, it is helpful to draw and fill out a right triangle using SOHCAHTOA. In our particular case, we had enough information to deduce csc(theta) without drawing a right triangle.
- 11/13: Solutions to the 6.2 worksheet are posted, under the Suggested Problems. There will be a quiz on 6.3 and 6.4 on 11/16. The MyMathLab assignments for 6.3 and 6.4 will also be due on 11/16.
-
11/9: I have graded today's quiz. It seems that many of you have not internalized the unit circle or the six basic trig functions. If you did not do well on today's quiz, it is most likely a result of losing points on the 5.4 problems (e.g., evaluate csc(-\pi/3)). Therefore, we will have a quiz on Monday 11/13 over 5.4. There will be 5 questions. Remember that many problems from the quizzes and exams are chosen directly from homework problems. Today's quiz was no exception.
On Monday 11/13, you will have the day to continue working on the 6.2 identities handout. A number of folks have indicated they are struggling with the 6.1-6.2 material. In light of this, as well as the upcoming Marine Science field trip which affects a lot of folks, there will be two attempts at Quiz 20 over 5.5, 6.1, and 6.2.  Only your best score on the two attempts will be counted. If you are happy with your score on Tuesday's attempt, you do not have to attempt the quiz again on Wednesday. If you are out on either 11/14 or 11/15, you only get one attempt at Quiz 20. Note that as Monday is a review day, we will NOT be reviewing before the Quiz 20 attempts on Tuesday or Wednesday.
There will be a quiz on 6.3 and 6.4 on Thursday 11/16.
- 11/7: There will be a quiz on 11/9 over 5.1, 5.3, and 5.4. The MyMathLab 6.1 and 6.2 assignments are due on 11/13, and there will be a quiz on 5.5, 6.1, and 6.2 on 11/14.
- 11/5: The 5.3 and 5.4 MyMathLab assignments will be due on 11/9, and the 5.5 MyMathLab assignment will be due on 11/12.
- 10/31: There will be a quiz on 4.2 and 4.3 on 11/2. The MyMathLab assignments for 5.1 and 5.2 are due on 11/6. We will also have a quiz over 5.2 on Monday 11/6, in which you will be given a unit circle to complete. You should be able to fill in the unit circle in under five minutes. Note that you will need to know the unit circle for the rest of your math career. Take the time to commit it to memory now. The investment will pay dividends.
- 10/28: The MyMathLab 3.4 and 3.5 assignments are due on 10/31. We will also have a Spooky Halloween Quiz over 3.4 and 3.5 on 10/31. The MyMathLab 4.2 and 4.3 assignments are due on 11/2.
- 10/22: The MyMathLab 2.5 assignment is due on 10/25, and the MyMathLab 3.2 assignment is due on 10/26. There will be a quiz over sections 2.4, 2.5, and 3.2 on 10/26.
-
10/15: I will be out this week. I have arranged for subs to cover for me. You are expected to attend class,
and you will be responsible for the material the subs cover (i.e., it will be on quizzes and tests)! As I will not be in town,
my office hours for this week are cancelled. Don't hesitate to reach out via email with any questions regarding the material.
The MyMathLab 2.2 assignment is due on 10/18. The MyMathLab 2.3 and 2.4 assignments will be due on 10/23. Note that you will have a quiz on 2.2 and 2.3 on Wednesday. I intend to make this quiz easy. Good attendance and hard work on Monday and Tuesday are likely to result in an additional, undisclosed incentive regarding the quiz.
10/5: We covered how to identify functions in 2.1 today, and we will finish 2.1 on Monday. The MyMathLab assignment for 2.1 is due on 10/10, and we will have a quiz on 2.1 on 10/10 as well.
Exam 2 will be on Thursday 10/12. THE EXAM CANNOT BE MADE UP, EXCEPT IN EMERGENCY SITUATIONS WITH DOCUMENTATION. OVERSLEEPING IS NOT AN EMERGENCY!
The exam will cover the following:- 1.3: Everything
- 1.4: Everything in the book, as well as lines tangent to curves (see the handout under the Suggested Problems)
- 1.5: Everything
- 1.6: Everything. (Folks are struggling to solve equations with two square roots. Therefore, you should expect such a problem on the exam!)
- 1.7: Everything
- 11.5: Be able to evaluate factorials and binomial coefficients. Be apply to expand a polynomial using the Binomial Theorem and determine the coefficient of a term in such an expansion.
- 2.1: Everything
-
10/3: We finished 1.7 and most of 11.5. You should get started on the MyMathLab and suggested problems for these sections.
The MyMathLab assignment for 11.5 is due on 10/8. We will have a quiz on 1.7 and 11.5 on Monday 10/9.
- 10/2: There will be a quiz on 1.5-1.6 on 10/5.
- 9/29: We have covered most of 1.6 and will finish the material in this section on solving equations with rational expressions on Monday. The suggested problems for 1.6 are posted, and the 1.6 MyMathLab assignment is due on 10/4. The MyMathLab 1.7 assignment is due on 10/6.
- 9/27: I have updated the 1.4 suggested problems to include the worksheet on finding lines tangent to curves. Note that you will ONLY be assessed on Problems 1(a)-(d) of that worksheet. I have also made available the MyMathLab 1.5 assignment, which is due on 10/2.
- 9/23: The MyMathLab assignments for 1.3 and 1.4 have been posted. The 1.3 assignment is due on 9/27, and we will have a quiz on 1.3 on 9/27. You should be able to start working through the MyMathLab assignment and suggested book problems for 1.3, and we will finish 1.3 on Monday. The MyMathLab 1.4 assignment is due on 10/1. We will have a quiz on 1.4 on 10/2.
- 9/14: The quiz for today on P.5 (factoring by substitution) and all of P.6 was moved to Monday 9/18, so that everyone has more time to study. I have also extended the due date for the P.6 MyMathLab assignment to Sunday 9/17 at 11:59 PM. Note that the quiz over P.1 and P.2 will still be held on Tuesday 9/19, so that I can return your graded quizzes on Wednesday. Remember that Exam 1 is on Thursday 9/21.
-
9/13: We will have a quiz over 1.1 and 1.2 on Tuesday 9/19. Exam 1 will be on Thursday 9/21. THE EXAM CANNOT
BE MADE UP, EXCEPT IN EMERGENCY SITUATIONS WITH DOCUMENTATION. OVERSLEEPING IS NOT AN EMERGENCY!
The exam will cover the following:- P.1: You should be able to recognize if a real number is rational or irrational. If a number is rational, write it in fraction form. If it is irrational, justify why this is the case.
- P.2: Everything, except for scientific notation.
- P.3-P.4: Everything
- P.5: Make sure you can SHOW YOUR WORK when factoring polynomials. (A lot of folks struggled on factoring a sum or difference of perfect cubes on today's quiz. You may use any mathematically correct method to factor polynomials; including, but not limited to, polynomial long division and the method from class. Note that the method from class will arise repeatedly throughout the semester. So the sooner you master this, the better you will be).
- P.6, 1.1, 1.2: Everything
- 9/12: We will finish covering 1.1 and 1.2, hopefully by the end of the week (and no later than Monday 9/18). The MyMathLab 1.1 and 1.2 assignments are posted. The MyMathLab 1.1 assignment is due on 9/18, and the 1.2 assignment is due on 9/20. You should start on these and the suggested book problems as we cover the material.
-
9/8: Class on Monday and Tuesday (9/11-9/12) has been CANCELED due to the hurricane. The USC Weather Site has information regarding cancellations, as well as services the university is offering. In particular, the dining halls, health and counseling centers, and (yes!) the library will still be open. Stay safe and stay dry! If you are planning on leaving town, I would do so tomorrow. You should expect heavy traffic.
Per University policy: Students should be aware that work must be made up and be prepared to do so. It is the university’s intention to adhere to the planned academic calendar, including fall break. In the interests of time, I will NOT be covering the following material in class, for which you will STILL BE RESPONSIBLE. This means any of the topics listed below WILL BE ON QUIZZES AND EXAMS.
- Section P.5: factoring by substitution
- Section P.6: Finding the domain of a rational expression, reducing rational expressions, and adding/subtracting/multiplying/dividing rational expressions.
I expect that this material is mostly a review. If this is not the case, you are responsible for seeking help, such as by coming to my office hours, emailing me, visiting the Math tutoring center, etc.! I will not be holding office hours on Monday; however, I will be holding office hours from 3:15 PM-4:15 PM on Tuesday instead. I will also have my normal Wednesday office hours. You are also welcome and encouraged to email me questions, as well as to set up an appointment to meet if my office hours are not convenient.
Note that the quiz on Tuesday will be on Wednesday 9/13, and the quiz for Thursday will be held as scheduled. We have covered everything for Wednesday's quiz already. The material I will not be covering is going to be tested on Thursday's quiz. This gives you time to seek help. You should take advantage of your long weekend to work through the MyMathLab assignments and suggested book problems for P.5 and P.6 (only the material I am not covering in class, for P.6), so you can take advantage of my office hours next week!
- 9/7: As of today, we have finished all of P.5 except for factoring by substitution. You should start working on the suggested problems and MyMathLab assignment for P.5. I have extended the deadline for the MyMathLab P.5 assignment to 9/12 and the MyMathLab P.6 assignment to 9/14. On Tuesday 9/12, we will have a quiz over all of P.4 and P.5 (except for factoring by substitution). On Thursday 9/14, there will be a quiz on all of P.5 and P.6. Note that if class is cancelled on a quiz day due to the hurricane, then we will have the quiz on the next day of class.
-
9/4: We have several announcements. First, I have made available several MyMathLab assignments.
The MyMathLab assignments for P.3 and P.4 are due on 9/7. The MyMathLab assignment for P.5 is due on 9/10, and the
MyMathLab assignment for P.6 is due on 9/12. Note that we have finished covering P.3 and will begin with P.4 tomorrow.
The second announcement is that SI review sessions begin this week! Check out the SI schedule. Note that you should be spending 3 HOURS EACH WEEK attending SI! The SI program has been tremendously successful in helping students master the material and improve their grades substantially (in many instances, even a full letter grade). - 8/31: We have finished covering P.3. Please start working on the suggested book problems for P.3 (scroll all the way down), as well as the MyMathLab problems for P.3. We will have a quiz on Thursday, September 7 over all of P.3 and part of P.4 (adding and multiplying polynomials, determining the degree of a polynomial, and knowing what the leading coefficient is). It will also be advantageous to have my office hours committed to memory by Thursday. Hint, hint, hint.
- 8/30: As of today, I expect that everyone has MyMathLab. Your first two MyMathLab assignments (for P.1 and P.2) are due on 9/3. The assignments for P.3 and P.4 are due 9/7. We have covered some of P.3 today in class (rational exponents, using absolute values to simplify radical expressions). Note that tomorrow's quiz will NOT assess on using absolute values in simplifying radical expressions.
- 8/27: I have set up MyMathLab. You should be able to get started on Section P1 Homework, and you will be able to complete it after class on Monday 8/28. As I do not expect folks to have access to MyMathLab until Wednesday, the homework will not be due until Sunday 9/3.
- 8/27: We will have a quiz on Thursday, August 31. It will cover the remainder of section P1 that was not assessed on the first quiz, as well as P2. Problem 3 on the HW1 Suggested Problems and the suggested book problems for both P1 and P2 are fair game.
- 8/24:Complete the HW1 Suggested Problems by Tuesday, August 29. You should be able to work Problems 1-2 based on class today. We will have a quiz on Tuesday at the end of class over Problems 1-2. Note that the deadline to drop the course without receiving a grade of W is Wednesday, August 30.
- 8/24: Obtain a copy of MyMathLab and the Course Textbook by August 30.

xml_set_object (PHP 4, PHP 5, PHP 7) xml_set_object — 在对象中使用 XML 解析器 描述 pool xml_set_object ( resource $parser , object &$object ) 该函数使得 parser 指定的解析器可以被用在 object 对象中。所有的回叫函数（ callback function）都可以由 xml_set_element_handler() 等函数来设置，它们被假定 为 object 对象的方法。 Example #1 xml_set_object() 示例 parser = xml_parser_create(); xml_set_object($this->parser, $this); xml_set_element_handler($this->parser, "tag_open", "tag_close"); xml_set_character_data_handler($this->parser, "cdata"); } function parse($data) { xml_parse($this->parser, $data); } function tag_open($parser, $tag, $attributes) { var_dump($parser, $tag, $attributes); } function cdata($parser, $cdata) { var_dump($parser, $cdata); } function tag_close($parser, $tag) { var_dump($parser, $tag); } } // end of class xml $xml_parser = new xml(); $xml_parser->parse("PHP"); ?> User Contributed Notes 16 notes =============================================================================== I finally managed to get xml_set_object() to work, after much documentation searching. As the solution I found has been hinted at, the focus has been wrong. There have been many problems getting class contained XML parsers to make changes to the members of an instance. This is because, from what I'm guessing, the functions are using a either a new annonymous instance of the class or an uninstanced version of the class. What we want to make sure it does it that the parser is accessing its handlers as member methods of a particular instance of a class. This can be done using the array method for passing a callback, setting the object as a reference to this instance. This way, you know that the parser is going to call the function properly. Ex: parser = NULL; $this->data = ''; } private function ParseElementStart($parser, $name, $attrs) { // Code } private function ParseElementEnd($parser, $name) { // Code } public function Parse($XMLdata) { $this->parser = xml_parser_create(); xml_set_object($this->parser, $this); xml_set_element_handler($this->parser, array(&$this, 'ParseElementStart'), array(&$this, 'ParseElementEnd')); xml_parse($this->parser, $XMLdata); xml_parser_free($this->parser); } } ?> With this, when you call the Parse method, the data in that instance can be modified. I'm not sure if xml_set_object becomes unneccissary when using the array callbacks, but I leave it in just to make sure that the xml_parse function knows it's in the object. As above, I'd recommend for memory sake, that the XML parser be created, used, and freed all in the same function, to ensure that everything is cleaned up correctly. =============================================================================== Just a note about creating abstract "call back handlers" as mentioned in some of the other notes. In this case I recommend extending the base XML class and overwritting the handler methods. The reason I wanted to do this, is that if you have a separate callback method class it causes problems, for example if you want to collect information out of the XML file and store it in an array. You can get around it with global variables, but I prefer to use them only when required ;) Example: xml(); } //overwrite base methods function tag_open($parser, $tag, $attributes) { array_push($this->output, "<$tag, attributes>"); } function cdata($parser, $cdata) { array_push($this->output, "$cdata"); } function tag_close($parser, $tag) { array_push($this->output, "$tag>"); } } $xml_parser = & new xml_output(); $xml_parser->parse("PHP"); echo("$xml_parser->output"); ?> =============================================================================== Adding to 'lmfe at mega dot ist dot utl dot pt' contribution below, I have to say that this behaviour is very usual for PHP if MemberVars of an Object arent initialized from the constructor. What worked best for me so far was something like this: bar); // with every instanciation, the variable is cleared for the object } } ?> =============================================================================== Using PHP 4.3.0, I got this strange behaviour: parse("PHP"); /* This code works */ $xml_parser2 = new xml(); $xml_parser2->parse("PHP2"); /* This code DON'T work */ $xml_parser = new xml(); $xml_parser->parse("PHP3"); ?> In the third block of code, php complains it can't find the handlers it needs. It seems this problem only happens if the variable is used more than once. Calling xml_parser_free doesn't help =============================================================================== (Adding to zitan's note) It seems easy enough to provide output functions for callback handler classes too. Example: name.': '.$this->info; } } class Main { var $name = 'Main'; var $callBackObject; function setCallBack(&$cBIn) { $this->callBackObject = $cBIn; } function toString() { return $this->name.': '.$this->callBackObject->toString(); } } $cb = & new CallBack; $m = & new Main; $m->setCallBack(&$cb); echo $cb->toString(); echo $m->toString(); ?> So, after collecting information during the parse operation within the callback handler class, e.g. in tag_close(), retrieving them is possible. =============================================================================== passing the object as a call-time ref (&$this) as in the example will create a warning in php 4.1+. Pass xml_set_object($xp,$this); instead. This does not seem to break anything - but I dont know for sure. =============================================================================== Just adding a little note about my above written example. It needs some improvements. Because PHP passes by VALUE by default, when you pass an array like this: array($callback_handler, 'handler_method') PHP makes a copy of the callback_handler object and uses the handler_method in the copy. This is not an ideal situation for many reasons...which I will not get into here...but you should have an idea by now. The best way to fix this is to change a few things. In the function declaration change the parameter from $callback_handler to &$callback_handler. So now your declaration should look like this function set_callback_handler(&$callback_handler) { ... } Now each time you reference $callback_handler change it to &$callback_handler. For example: xml_set_element_handler( $this->xml_parser, array(&$callback_handler, 'start_element'), array(&$callback_handler, 'close_Element' )); This ensures that PHP will always use the same object. =============================================================================== xml_set_object is great, if you want to hard code your start_element, end_element, etc functions within your xml class. But what if you want to increase the modularity of your application? Solution, create one generic XMLParser class that handles everything *except* the callback funtions. Then create an abstract XMLCallbackHandler class which you can extend to provide any customization you want. So how do you tell the php's xml_parser that you want to use this other class to handle the callback functions. xml_set_object? This only works if the functions are *within* the object you called this method from. The solution lies in the xml_set_element_handler() function. Take a look at this sample source... class XMLParser { ... function set_callback_handler($callback_handler) { // Assign the startElement endElement functions xml_set_element_handler( $this->xml_parser, array($callback_handler, 'start_element'), array($callback_handler, 'close_Element' )); /* By passing an array with this ($object, 'function_name') structure to the 2nd and 3rd parameters. We are able to tell the parser to look in another object for these callback functions. */ // Assign the character data function xml_set_character_data_handler( $this->xml_parser, array($callback_handler, 'character_data')); } } class myCallBackHandler { function start_element(...) { //code goes here } function end_element(...) { //code goes here } function character_data(...) { //code goes here } } Now all thats left to do is use these classes.. $parser = new XMLParser(); $parser->set_callback_handler(new myCallbackHandler()); =============================================================================== English explaination of why you do: $xml = & new xml(); Ok, when PHP executes "new xml()" it creates an anonymous variable (one that you can't reference with any name) which it then runs the constructor function on. Ok, now once that's done, it then assigns by VALUE in the example above. This means that that lovely pointer to your parser is pointing to the anonymous instance of your class, and not the used instance of your class... thus making a "shadow" of all your variables, where assignments inside the parser access different variables than outside the parser. What PHP _SHOULD_ be doing (similar to C++) is have this statement execute such that the assignment is done by REFERENCE, so that you assign the new name to the class that actually got constructed, and not just a copy of the class that you constructed. If they did it right, this code wouldn't be broken. =============================================================================== Call-time pass-by-reference has been deprecated, so the example is buggy as was already mentionned. However since 4.04 (I think) "new" can return objects by reference. So the clean way to have both the parser initialised in the constructor, and to save the result in your object is to do $xml_parser = & new xml(); see http://www.php.net/manual/en/language.oop.newref.php Ivan ===============================================================================
in reply to jon9mm's question, I have found the same problem (function 'startElement' does not exist). I finally found the way around this, by re-reading this doc for xml_set_object. You HAVE to use the xml_set_object ($this->parser, &$this) within your parser function.
When that function is called, your object temporarily becomes the parser object and shares scope (so it can see 'startElement', etc). Once that function is done, the xml_set_object(...) call goes out of scope, and your object is no longer bound to the parser. So the simplist solution is to call xml_set_object(...), do any parsing, and then call xml_parser_free(...) all within the same function.
And remember, don't call xml_set_object(...) in your object's constructor - your object will be forever bound to the parser object and you'll loose all access to your object's member functions.
This is all explained in the examples above, but it took me reading it a couple of times to grok how it all works.
=============================================================================== If you're using the XML parser within an object, be careful not to accidentally call any methods that don't exist within the object. Instead of complaining that the missing method doesn't exist, PHP will say it's not able to find the handler routines, even if you've indicated them correctly. (PHP version 4.0.5 on FreeBSD). =============================================================================== If xml_set_object is not called in the constructor of an object, the values that the parser modifies will be saved. Else, the values do not seem to be saved as stated by "i_sofer" above. --- Start Example Code --- class foo { var xmlparser; function foo() { \\the constructor $this->xmlparser=xmlparser_create(); } function parse() { xml_set_object($this->xmlparser,&$this); \\also include data handler \\and element handlers here } } --- End Example Code --- =============================================================================== Using xml parser in objects seem to have a problem that values modified(even of the object itself) get lost as soon as parsing ends... =============================================================================== The example will generate a warning unless allow_call_time_pass_reference is set to true in your INI file. It also will not accept a call by value. =============================================================================== While true that there is no automatic destructor for PHP class objects, it is quite simple to create a method called destroy and perform the destruction manually. In the example above it may not be necessary to free the xml parser immediately... it would appear from the example that the object is re-useable.
