Bonucci extends Juventus contract until 2024
by BeSoccerItaly defender Leonardo Bonucci has renewed his contract with Juventus by one year until 2024, the Serie A champions announced on Tuesday.
The 32-year-old centre-back has made 376 appearances for the club, returning to Turin in August 2018 after one season at rivals AC Milan.
He has played the full 90 minutes of all matches Juve have played this campaign, as they sit top of Serie A, one point ahead of Inter Milan in second.

"It's a long and intense story; the one that links Leonardo Bonucci to Juventus," the club said in a statement. "And it's a story that will continue to develop until 2024, after he officially penned in his contract renewal with the club today. Since his arrival at the club in 2010/11, Bonucci has played more games than anyone else, in all competitions.
"He is the player who, even this season, hasn't stopped. In total, he has featured for Juventus in 1440 minutes of action played since the first official game at the end of August. In short, he has been a constant on the field. He is the only defender to have scored at least one goal in the last seven seasons of Serie A, and whilst wearing the Black and White jersey, he has scored 17 times."
Bonucci has won 14 trophies in total with Juventus since arriving from southerners Bari in 2010, including seven Scudetto titles. This season he has been promoted to captain while Giorgio Chiellini recovers from injury.

This dialog allows you to set the options of a template STRUCT element (and its contained elements, using the Edit button). It is usually invoked by right-clicking the STRUCT node in the template tree view and selecting the "Edit..." item.
The STRUCT item acts as a container for one or more sub-elements of different types.
Name
This name identifies this specific field in the file. The name is used in expressions to access sub-elements of the STRUCT (using the dot operator). The name is required (unless the parent is a FOR) so that you can access this element, and should be different to the names of siblings (if the parent is also a STRUCT).
If you need to show that different parts of the template have exactly the same data structure or type, you can give them both the same "Type name" (see below).
Elements
This is the list of elements currently contained in the STRUCT. Select an element in the list before using the buttons next to the list (Edit etc - see below). Select the blank entry at the bottom of the list before inserting in order to append to the list.
Edit...
This edits the sub-element of the STRUCT that is currently selected in the Elements list. A "child" dialog appears near the dialog - you can't do anything in the STRUCT dialog until the child dialog is closed again.
Insert
Inserts a new element in the STRUCT just before the currently selected element in the Elements list. To add an element to the end, select the blank line in the Elements list past the last one before clicking the Insert button.
Deletes the element currently selected in the Elements list. Note that all sub-elements are also deleted, so accidentally deleting an element could lose a lot of work - for this reason you are prompted that you really want to delete it.
Moves the current element up in the Element list.
Moves the current element up in the Element list.
Elt size
This just displays the size of the currently selected element in the Elements list. If the element (or any of its sub-elements) are variable in size then a question mark (?) is displayed instead.
Offset
Displays the offset within the STRUCT of the currently selected element in the Elements list. If any elements above it are of variable size a question mark (?) is displayed. To get the size of the entire STRUCT select the blank line at the end of the Elements list.
Type name
Generic type name for the data element. This may be the name of a C/C++ struct/class if the file is manipulated by a C/C++ program. This is a comment field only and has no effect on the behaviour of the template.
Display
This can be used to show the value of important field(s) in the tree column of the tree view. This can be blank or a simple string but usually contains expressions enclosed in braces, with optional format specification. See the section called Displaying Information in the Tree Column in Editing templates for more information.
Comments
Add any other relevant information here.
<< and >> buttons
If the parent element is a STRUCT then these buttons are displayed in the bottom right of the dialog. They allow you to move to the previous and next sibling (ie the previous and next elements in the parent STRUCT). This is very handy when you quickly want to view or change values in all the children.
Using the button is equivalent to clicking OK then editing the previous or next element in the parent STRUCT.

While I would normally obsess over appearances, I'm more interested in the javascript at the moment.
But, this is in a custom font, so that's got to count for something.


Utility function to add '
' tags automatically to a string to limit line length. Breaks lines to the nearest
word, split using spaces. If we find a word longer than the line length, do grammatically incorrect hyphenating.
CSS word wrapping is annoying so I just did it in JS.
The string to add '
' tags to
The maximum number of characters to have in a line, inclusive
A string broken with '
' tags
Utility function to 'flatmap' UIUtil.UIItem.recvParams arrays in nested children UIItems. RecvParams must be flattened for optimization purposes (also it's a pain to change it to something not like this).
The array of UIItems to get the recvParams from
The flat array of RecvParams
Template engine function. Follows {{item}} syntax, meaning if a string "this is {{thing}}" is templated against the values {"thing" : 7} the output will be "this is 7". Based off of regular expressions and stackoverflow.
The string to apply templating to
An object in format of {key: value} where '{{key}}' => value
The templated string
Generated using TypeDoc
Provides useful functions and interfaces for the UI system.
I don't know how many events there are until the day of, and as a result I don't know how many event graphics we need to construct until the app is opened. The solution is dynamically generate the HTML at the start based on the data given to us. Industry experience (googling) has shown me that the fasted way to do this is to create what is known as a templating engine (ex. http://mustache.github.io/mustache.5.html) which uses string manipulation to create HTML pages and then renders it all at once. Of course I wanted fast and compact so I wrote my own found here: UIUtil.templateEngine
The rest of the UI component system is designed around using this templating engine to increase the reusability and modularity of the code written in each component. Everything in the UI is written in a class that extends UIUtil.UIItem. This class contains abstract methods for a HTML builder function which returns a string to put in the HTML, Javascript builder function which then binds listeners over the newly created elements, and multiple optional functions called on state changes (data update, time, etc.). These functiions are managed either by the top level script or a parent UIItem class (ex. SlideTabUI). All CSS is located in the index.css file, and classes in each component determine the effects applied to the HTML. I attempted to avoid inline styles for readability, but if needed they are a good debugging tool.
Data (events, schedule, etc.) is given to the UIItem through a parameter in UIUtil.UIItem.onInit or UIUtil.UIItem.onUpdate. This data must be generated from an instance of DataManage, and more detail on how this data is fetched and what it's contents are can be found in DataManage. Each UIItem has an array of UIUtil.RecvParams objects in UIUtil.UIItem.recvParams which specifies what kind of data is needed for the UIItem. This property must be a flat array of objects, so if a UIItem class has children UIItems with individual recvParams (ex. SlideTabUI) it must create a flat list of all the parameters during construction. This can easily be done using the UIUtil.combineParams function.

Diversity and Inclusion
We care about our course community and want it to be a place where all students feel included, valued, and safe to learn from and with others. Diversity of thought and of people are important to us. We ask that you treat all other students with respect and work to create an inclusive community, and we hold ourselves to the same standard. Please feel free to contact us with any problem, concern, or suggestion. You may also report any concerns or misconduct via the resources linked at https://cse.engin.umich.edu/about/reporting-concerns-and-misconduct/.
Computer and Network Recommendations
We recommend you have a personal laptop consistent with CAEN recommendations.
Test your internet connection with the U-M Custom Speedtest website and make sure it meets the minimum requirements for any UM service. You'll need more bandwidth if there will be multiple simultaneous users in your household.
Resources for help with computing equipment:
- Information and Technology Services (ITS) Laptop loaner program
- College of Engineering (CoE) Office of Student Affairs, email requests to<EMAIL_ADDRESS>You may also use computer workstations in CAEN labs on campus or connect remotely.
Curriculum
EECS 280 is a second-semester foundational programming course. You'll learn how to write correct programs that are easy for others to understand and modify. We focus on computer science concepts including:
| Value and reference semantics | Container Data Structures |
| Functional abstraction | Recursion |
| Data abstraction | Generic Programming |
| Inheritance and Polymorphism | Higher-Order Functions |
| Dynamic resource management | Testing and debugging |
| Compound Types | Stacks and queues |
| Encapsulation | Linked lists and binary trees |
In our exploration of these concepts, we cover many elements of the C++ language:
| Arrays and Vectors | Derived types |
| File and stream I/O | The Big Three |
| C and C++ strings | Templates |
| Pointers | Iterators |
| Structs and classes | Functors |
| Operator overloading | Exceptions |
Textbook
The course notes cover the same material as lecture, sometimes in more depth or with additional examples.
(Optional) C++ Primer by Lippman, Lajoie and Moo. 5th edition. May be used as a reference for the C++ language.
Many C++ reference materials are freely available online.
Prerequisites
ENGR 101 or ENGR 151 or EECS 180 or EECS 183 or ROB 102 with a minimum grade of "C". Prerequisites may be waived with transfer credit or a proficiency exam. Contact the CSE Advising Office in Beyster 2808 or at<EMAIL_ADDRESS>Exams
There will be one midterm and one final exam. Exam dates are posted on eecs280.org.
Alternate Exams
There will be one alternate midterm exam and one alternate final exam. Alternate exam times are posted on eecs280.org.
We may approve alternate exam requests for students with a valid, documented conflict with a required activity in another course, or university-affiliated athletics. We may also provide alternate exams in cases of unanticipated medical or personal emergencies.
Labs
Labs consist of a short large-group review followed by work in small groups to complete a worksheet. Course staff facilitate labs and are available for questions. Labs are be graded on attendance and completion of the worksheet, submitted as a group. Attendance is taken at the beginning of the small-group worktime. Individuals will not receive credit for the lab unless they are present when attendance is taken.
Projects
You will complete five major programming projects ranging in size from ~100 to ~1,000 lines of code.
Project 1: Statistics . Analyze data from the "How Couples Meet and Stay Together" research study.
Project 2: Computer Vision . Resize images without distortion.
Project 3: Euchre . Simulate a card game popular in Michigan.
Project 4: Web . Build a small web server for an office hours queue.
Project 5: Machine Learning . Automatically identify the subject of EECS 280 forum posts.
We update and improve the projects from time to time, so they may change any time before the project release date.
Project Partnerships
Project 1 is independent. You may work either alone or in a partnership for the remaining projects.
If you work in a partnership, you must partner with a student registered for EECS 280 this term (any section). You may not partner with anyone outside the course.
You may change partners between projects. You may not change partners during a project. In exceptional cases, you may request partnership dissolution via email to the faculty. If the dissolution is granted, both partners may use previously shared code and both partners must work alone on the remainder of the project.
For those retaking the course: if you submitted an assignment in a previous term, you may still partner, but we encourage you to start coding from scratch with your partner, without reusing previous code. This will provide the best learning experience for you and your partner. If you choose to work alone, you are free to reuse your own code from a previous term.
You and your partner turn in the same solution to the autograder. You must register your partnership on the autograder.
Project Grading
We use a web-based autograder to evaluate correctness, style, and the thoroughness of your tests.
Before the deadline, you may submit up to 3 times per day. After each submission, the autograder shows the results of the public tests released with the project.
After the deadline, the autograder shows the results of private tests, which are usually more thorough than the public tests.
Your final project score is a combination of public and private tests. We use the submission that received the combined best score. If multiple submissions share the best score, we grade the last.
Programming Environment
You are free to develop on any platform. You are responsible for any differences between your preferred platform and the grading platform, so use only ANSI/ISO standard C++. We recommend testing your code on CAEN Linux, which provides version 4.8.5 of the g++ compiler, the same version used by the autograder.
Project Tips
Tips for doing well on the projects include:
- Start early. This is the most common problem.
- Try a debugger. One major goal of this course is for you to learn to test and debug your programs independently.
- Ask for help. We want to help you in office hours!
- Back up. We can't help you with lost data.
Tips for project partnerships include:
- Form your partnership early. Don't partner with someone who has already written most of the code, or vice versa. You won't get as much out of the project.
- Plan your strategy. When will you meet? Do you plan to attend office hours? Do you prefer to work during the day, at night, or on the weekends? Will you start early?
- Work on all parts of the project together. We strongly encourage pair programming. It's also valuable practice for exams.
- Do NOT split the work in half and work separately. You'll have no control over your partner's contribution. Splitting the work also harms your readiness for exams.
Grades
Letter grades are assigned on a straight scale with curved exams. In general, our goal is be consistent with past semesters.
You can estimate your letter grade using our grade calculator.
We calculate your total weighted score using these weights.
| Assignment | Weight |
|---|---|
| Lab (all labs equal weight) | 10% |
| Projects (P1 5%; P2-P5 11% each) |
49% |
| Midterm Exam | 20% |
| Final Exam | 20% |
| Entry and Exit surveys | 1% |
| Total | 100% |
After computing the total weighted score, we use these ranges to assign letter grades. Each range is half-inclusive, for example a score of 89.99% is a B+ and a score of 90.0% is an A-.
| Total weighted score | Letter grade |
|---|---|
| 0 - 50% | E |
| 50 - 60% | D |
| 60 - 70% | C- |
| 70 - 77% | C |
| 77 - 80% | C+ |
| 80 - 83% | B- |
| 83 - 87% | B |
| 87 - 90% | B+ |
| 90 - 93% | A- |
| 93 - 97% | A |
| 97 - 100% | A+ |
Curve
After each exam, we may adjust your score to account for the difficulty of the exam. In general, our goal is a mean in the low 80's. We will never adjust scores downward.
Minimum scores
To pass EECS 280 with a C or better, your total weighted project score must be at least 60.0%, and your total weighted curved exam score must be at least 70.0%. 65.0% (adjusted for W23)
Extensions and Exceptions
We do not accept late work. Project and lab submissions are not allowed past the published deadline, except in the circumstances outlined below.
Submit extension/exception requests via the administrative request forms.
Late Adds. Students adding EECS 280 late may petition for additional time to turn in assignments.
Planned Exceptions. We will consider extension requests made at least two weeks in advance, for example, for religious holidays or planned medical procedures.
Emergencies. If you experience a medical or personal emergency, please reach out to us! We will consider exceptions on a case-by-case basis. Please provide documentation of the emergency. Requests must be made at least 24 hours before the assignment deadline, unless the emergency prevents prompt communication to course faculty or staff.
Lab Drops. We drop the lowest 2 lab scores for all students. This policy is intended to cover situations in which you must miss a lab due to e.g. a planned medical procedure, an unanticipated medical or personal emergency, or an official university conflict. If (and only if) you have already used your two drops, you may petition for an additional drop in cases of illness or emergency. Requests will be considered on a case-by-case basis.
Regrades
Exams are graded by hand. We will provide an opportunity to request a regrade to correct grading errors. We will regrade the entire problem and fix any mistakes (your score may go up or down).
Labs are graded for attendance and completion. You may check your scores on Canvas. Please report any clerical errors.
Projects are automatically graded. We do not accept regrade requests.
In all cases regrade requests are due no later than 7 days after a grade is released unless a shorter deadline is specified.
Academic Integrity
We encourage collaboration in EECS 280, especially on concepts, tools, specifications, and strategies.
All work you submit must be your own or your partnership's. Collaboration must not result in code that is identifiably similar to other solutions, past or present.
| Encouraged Collaboration | Unacceptable collaboration |
|---|---|
| Sharing high-level design strategies, e.g., helper function organization or data structure choices | Walking through an important piece of code step-by-step, sharing pseudocode, sharing comments |
| Helping others understand the spec or project nuances | Providing your code as a reference |
| Helping someone debug | Debugging someone's code for them |
| Explaining a compiler error to someone | Fixing a compiler error for someone |
| Discussing test strategies | Sharing test code to verify someone else's design, even if test cases are not submitted |
| Brainstorming edge cases for testing | Discussing specifics about what tests exposed instructor bugs on the autograder |
| Using starter code provided with a project or based on examples shown in lecture | Copying code in whole or in part, even if the code is modified Writing original code for someone else, or paying someone to write your project |
| Looking at someone else's code to understand concepts or help someone debug | Sharing your code in a way that could be copied, e.g., sending code over email or taking a picture of code |
You are still responsible for following these rules even after finishing the course.
If you are unsure about what constitutes an honor code violation, please contact the course staff with questions.
Code reuse
If you are retaking the course, you may reuse your own code, provided it was wholly written according to the rules outlined in this syllabus. It is possible for instructors to miss an honor code violation in a previous term, but catch and report it when the code is reused.
Code publishing
You may not make your code publicly available in any form, for example in a public GitHub repository or personal website. You are still responsible for following these rules even after finishing the course.
Honor Council Process
We report suspected violations to the Engineering Honor Council. To identify violations, we use both manual inspection and automated software to compare present solutions with each other, with past solutions, and with code found online. The Honor Council determines whether a violation of academic standards has occurred, as well as any sanctions. Read the Honor Code for detailed definitions of cheating, plagiarism, and other forms of academic misconduct.
Here's what you can expect if you are reported for an Honor Code violation:
- The EECS 280 instructors submit an official report to the Honor Council.
- The Honor Council notifies you of the report, and explains the next steps of the process. You receive a copy of the report, including the evidence of the suspected violation.
- The course instructors play no role in adjudicating reported cases.
- The Honor Council notifies course instructors when your case is resolved. Any penalties they prescribe are applied to your grade. If you are found not responsible, your grade is unaffected.
If you have a pending honor council case at the end of the term, you receive an "I" (incomplete) grade until the case is resolved. We will send you a grade projection via email to help with planning. Your grade is updated once the case is resolved. The "I" should not remain on your transcript.
Course Policies
COVID-19 Policies
Our goal is to provide an effective and safe learning environment in EECS 280 that is as close as possible to a traditional in-person term. We also understand that the pandemic affects students in significant and varied ways, and we will work to ensure all students are able to participate in the course. Please reach out to us to discuss specific challenges or needs you have.
As they have throughout the past two years, policies around academic and public health are subject to change as this pandemic evolves. This course will follow all policies issued by the University. Please see the UM COVID-19 Response Page for the most up to date information.
Commitment to Equal Opportunity
As indicated in the General Standards of Conduct for Engineering Students, we are committed to a policy of equal opportunity for all persons and do not discriminate on the basis of race, color, national origin, age, marital status, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, gender expression, disability, religion, height, weight, or veteran status.
Students' Mental Health and Well-being
University of Michigan is committed to advancing the mental health and well-being of its students. If you or someone you know is feeling overwhelmed, depressed, and/or in need of support, services are available. For help, contact Counseling and Psychological Services (CAPS) at<PHONE_NUMBER> and https://caps.umich.edu during and after hours, on weekends and holidays, or through its counselors physically located in schools on both North and Central Campus. You may also consult University Health Service (UHS) at<PHONE_NUMBER> and https://www.uhs.umich.edu/mentalhealthsvcs, or for alcohol or drug concerns, see www.uhs.umich.edu/aodresources.

Wolverine Support Network
Another resource available to you as a U-M student is Wolverine Support Network, a student organization offering free peer-facilitated weekly groups on campus. With 30+ groups per week, students are placed in a group at a time and location most convenient for them. Trained students lead groups to promote students' well-being and build community in an accessible, confidential, and inclusive environment. To sign up for a group, go to umichwsn.org/join, or email<EMAIL_ADDRESS>with any questions.
Accommodations for Students with Disabilities
If you think you need an accommodation for a disability, please let your instructor know during the first three weeks of the semester. Some aspects of this course may be modified to facilitate your participation and progress. As soon as you make us aware of your needs, we can work with the Services for Students with Disabilities (SSD) office to help us determine appropriate academic accommodations. SSD<PHONE_NUMBER>; http://ssd.umich.edu) typically recommends accommodations through a Verified Individualized Services and Accommodations (VISA) form. Any information you provide is private and confidential and will be treated as such.
FCI Initiative
This semester, EECS 280 is partnering with the Foundational Course Initiative (FCI) at the Center for Research on Learning and Teaching (CRLT). FCI is a program to improve undergraduate experience and learning in large enrollment courses and involves a course design collaboration between instructional staff, former course students, and FCI consultants. Over the course of the term, FCI consultants may attend class sessions, and you may be asked to complete surveys and/or participate in focus groups aimed at evaluating the effectiveness of specific course elements.
While this is an educational improvement project, it also has a research component to understand educational experiences and document the effectiveness of various course design strategies (IRB: HUM00150716).
Your participation in surveys and focus groups will be voluntary, and at no time will your name or any identifying details be included in any research presented either within or beyond the University of Michigan.
More information on FCI can be found here: Foundational Course Initiative
Please feel free to contact<EMAIL_ADDRESS>if you have any questions or concerns about this project.
Recordings
Course lectures may be audio/video recorded and made available to other students in this course. As part of your participation in this course, you may be recorded. If you do not wish to be recorded, please contact your instructor the first week of class to discuss alternative arrangements.
Students may not record or distribute any class activity without written permission from the instructor, except as necessary as part of approved accommodations for students with disabilities. Any approved recordings may only be used for the student's own private use.
Research Disclosure
Your class work might be used for research purposes. No identifying information about you or your work will be published. For example, we may use anonymized student assignments to design algorithms or build tools to help programmers. Or we might survey responses to help us improve the course and better understand instructional techniques. Any student who wishes to opt out can contact the course staff<EMAIL_ADDRESS>at any time up to seven days after final grades have been issued.

For the millefeuilles, place the puff pastry rectangles onto a baking sheet and place another baking sheet on top (this is to to keep the puff pastry flat as it cooks). Transfer to the oven and bake for 10-15 minutes, or until the pastry has risen and is golden-brown. Remove from the oven, remove the uppermost baking tray and set aside to cool.
Sprinkle two and a half tablespoons of the icing sugar onto a plate. Dredge the pear slices in the icing sugar. Heat a griddle pan over a medium heat until hot, then cook the sugared pear slices for 1-2 minutes on each side, or until golden-brown griddle marks appear on the pears. (You may need to do this in batches.)
Place the double cream, rum and the remaining half tablespoon of icing sugar into a bowl and whisk until firm peaks form when the whisk is removed.
Whisk in the chestnut purée, then fold in the chopped chestnuts.
For the caramel, gently heat the sugar in a non-stick pan until the sugar is dissolved and has caramelised. Continue to cook for 4-5 minutes, or until the mixture is dark golden-brown. Remove from the heat and whisk in half of the double cream.
In a separate bowl, whisk the remaining double cream until firm peaks form when the whisk is removed.
Pour the caramel mixture onto the whipped cream and fold together.
To assemble the millefeuilles, spread a thin layer of chestnut cream onto four of the puff pastry rectangles. Top each with a few pear slices.
Place another piece of puff pastry on top of each millefeuille. Spread another layer of chestnut cream onto the puff pastry, then top with a few more slices of pear. Finish each millefeuille with a third puff pastry rectangle. Dust with icing sugar.
To serve, spoon the caramel cream sauce into the centre of four serving plates and place one millefeuille into the centre of each plate.


Put on protective clothing (hard soled shoes,
long shirt and pants; hard hat or bicycle helmet)
and check for injuries.
There may be aftershocks! Be prepared to drop,
cover, and hold on again.
 If you cannot turn the gas off, leave the
area immediately
- Quickly check your area for serious hazards,
including fallen furniture, broken glass, and
downed power lines. Stay alert and avoid areas
with serious damage when possible
- Turn off water to the house to preserve good
water and reduce flooding until you determine
no water pipes are broken
- Take out your extinguisher
- Go to your pre-designated neighborhood meeting place
- Remember to recheck


In HDF5, datasets can be located in a group (see H5Group
) or at the
root of a file (see H5File
). They can be created either with a pre-existing R-object
(arrays as well as data.frames are supported, but not lists or other complex objects), or by specifying
an explicit datatype (for available datatypes see h5types$overview
as well as the dimension.
In addition, other features are supported such as transparent compression (for which a chunk-size can be selected).
Object of class H5D
.
In order to create a dataset, the create_dataset
methods of either H5Group
or
H5File
should be used. Please see the documentation there for how to create them.
The most important parts of a dataset are the
The space of the dataset. It describes the dimension of the dataset as well as the maximum dimensions.
Can be obtained using the get_space
of the H5S
object.
The datatypes that is being used in the dataset. Can be obtained using the get_type
method.
See H5T
to get more information about using datatypes.
In order to read and write datasets, the read
and write
methods are available. In addition, the standard way of using
[
to access arrays is supported as well (see H5S_H5D_subset_assign
for more help).
Other information/action of possible interest are
The size of the dataset can be extracted using get_storage_size
The size of the dataset can be changed using the set_extent
method

Some flags governing edge cases of conversion from HDF5 to R. This is related to how integers are being treated and
the issue of R not being able to natively represent 64bit integers and not at all being able to represent unsigned 64bit integers
(even using add-on packages). The constants governing this are part of h5const
. The relevant ones start with the term
H5TOR
and are documented there. The default set here returns a regular 32bit integer if it doesn't lead to an overflow
and returns a 64bit integer from the bit64
package otherwise. For 64bit unsigned int that are larger than 64bit signed int,
it return a double
. This looses precision, however.

I'm fascinated from small space gardening as I feel this food revolution should start from each of us and most of us right now live in cities.
 I'm building solutions and collect my experience. My urban projects
Gardening is an opportunity to reconnect with nature and yourself. On this site, I want to share my thoughts and lessons learn from nature that I hope can help you to see things on a different view and maybe spark some inspiration for some positive reflection and action. Conversation with nature
If you have development expertise in Jekyll, SEO or Web Design I'll thank you to give me your opinion, or could send a pull request. Ruby, JavaScript, HTML and CSS developers are welcome here! I look forward to sharing my ideas of web marketing and grow hacking with you!
A donation for my freedom would be fantastic! After all, the goal of all is to get it is not so? Remember that, I will appreciate much more those who contacted me after making a small donation, you think i like to work for free?! If you do not know what is Bitcoin, you can find out which, I believe a lot in this project to give freedom to many around the world!
I'm trying to grow hack myself on LinkedIn, a recommendation more on my profile could make a difference to my professional career, what do you say to help this? Connect with me via email lantoniotrento[at]gmail.com and leave a recommendation and some endorsment, are appreciated as much as the donations!
We can help each other if you want, if you help me with a sizable donation you give me the opportunity to evaluate your invitation on KeyBase (there are only 25000 invitations available), the portal created to keep your privacy intact while remaining confident of dealing with people honest and real in bitcoin circuit!

Is this a good idea?" categories: - R - Teaching tags_include: [] ---
I’ve been teaching students ggplot2
for graphics exclusively for a couple years now. One issue that seems to throw students is the specification of different data sets for some layers. Part of the confusion seems to arise from reversing the order of arguments between ggplot()
and geom_*()
. I’m trying to combat this by always naming my arguments. Is this a good idea?
ggplot()
has data
as the first argument, while geom_*()
have mapping
as the first argument. Both have the other argument as the second argument. If I don’t name arguments I do
library(tidyverse)
## Warning: package 'tibble' was built under R version 3.5.2
data(iris)
ggplot(iris, aes(x=Sepal.Width, y=Petal.Length)) +
geom_point(aes(color=Species))
For the most part this is just fine as long as each layer is using the same data frame. However, I frequently ask students to add predictions from a fitted model.1 Just as an example where vanilla geom_smooth()
won’t work because there is a 3rd variable that I want to account for in the predictions.2
irislm <- lm(Petal.Length~(Sepal.Width + Sepal.Length + Species)^2, data=iris)
nd <- crossing(Species = factor(levels(iris$Species)),
Sepal.Width = seq(min(iris$Sepal.Width), max(iris$Sepal.Width), by = 0.01))
sepalstats <- iris %>%
group_by(Species) %>%
summarize(minsw = min(Sepal.Width),
maxsw = max(Sepal.Width),
medsl = median(Sepal.Length))
nd <- left_join(nd, sepalstats, by="Species") %>%
mutate(Sepal.Length = medsl) %>%
filter(Sepal.Width > minsw,
Sepal.Width < maxsw)
library(broom)
predicted <- augment(irislm, newdata = nd)
ggplot(iris, aes(x=Sepal.Width, y=Petal.Length)) +
geom_point(aes(shape=Species, color=Sepal.Length)) +
geom_line(aes(y = .fitted, linetype=Species, color=Sepal.Length), data = predicted)
I can’t just change the data argument because the output from augment()
uses .fitted
instead of Petal.Length
. I could rename the output of augment, but that’s a bit risky because then you have two conceptually different things (data vs. expected value) with the same name. So now I’m doing
ggplot(data = iris,
mapping = aes(x=Sepal.Width, y=Petal.Length)) +
geom_point(mapping = aes(shape=Species, color=Sepal.Length)) +
geom_line(data = predicted,
mapping = aes(y = .fitted, linetype=Species, color=Sepal.Length))
Other than making for excess typing, is there some reason I shouldn’t do this?
Yes, I know I can just add geom_smooth()
. Works great until you start using more complex models that include covariates not on the plot. Or if I want prediction intervals as well as confidence intervals.↩
I’m getting a bit carried away here because I suddenly decided I also wanted to have the fitted lines not exceed the limits of Sepal Width for each group. But because I needed the medians for each species anyway this wasn’t too big a deal.↩

nent is a set of custom HTML elements (web components) to enrich static HTML files with application features. Our focus is on creating experiential websites with less scripting and no build-process.
nent functional elements add functionality, NOT design. These elements work with your design. Since it is HTML, you can always use it with any framework, element library or UI kit you want.
The elements bring application functionality to HTML with one script reference and no code or build-process.


Linear Mixed effect Model Splines ('lmms') implements linear mixed
effect model splines for modelling and differential expression for highly
dimensional data sets: investNoise() for quality control and filterNoise() for
removing non-informative trajectories; lmmSpline() to model time course expression
profiles and lmmsDE() performs differential expression analysis to identify
differential expression between groups, time and/or group x time interaction.

libscript is a plugin-based library designed to add language-independent extensibility to applications.
It allows to decouple an application from the virtual machines provided by the various scripting languages. The main library, libscript, is a thin layer that provides a language-independent scripting API, allowing the application to register its functions and invoke code to be performed. Libscript then invokes the appropriate plugin (libscript-python, libscript-ruby, libscript-lua, etc.) to run the code. This way, the application can support all those scripting languages without adding each of them as a dependency.
libscript was developed by Hisham Muhammad as a case study for his MSc dissertation at PUC-RIO.

Till now, you have just seen how to take input and print anything on the screen. Now, your real coding part will begin.
Many times, we need to first see the conditions and accordingly make a decision. For example, if it is raining, we will take an umbrella otherwise not. Similarly, if a number is divisible by 2, it is even, otherwise, it is odd.
We take such type of decisions in C++ also by using if...else.
if statement
Again take the example of raining. If it is raining, a person will take an umbrella.
In C++, such type of decisions are taken using if statement. Let's first have a look at its syntax.
if(condition)
{
statements
}
If the condition written within the brackets of if statement is true, then the statements written in the body of the if statement (i.e. within the curly braces '{ }') get executed.
Let's see an example of if statement.
#include <iostream>
int main()
{
using namespace std;
int a, b;
a = 45;
b = 45;
if(a == b)
{
cout << "a is equal to b" << endl;
}
return 0;
}
Here the condition a == b is true and thus the statement in the body of the if statement got executed and "a is equal to b" got printed.
Note that { } represents the body of if. Whatever is written inside these curly braces is part of if.
So, the condition of if statement is checked and if found true, the statement(s) in its body are executed.
if...else statement
Now, consider that a chocolate costs 10 rupees and a candy costs 5 rupees. So, if you have at least 10 rupees, you can buy a chocolate, otherwise you have to buy a candy.
In the world of programming, this is done by using if...else statement. Let'see how.
if(condition)
statement 1
else
statement 2
If the condition is true, statement 1 will be executed. Otherwise, statement 2 gets executed.
Now, let's see the same example which we saw above, but this time using if...else statement.
#include <iostream>
int main()
{
using namespace std;
int a, b;
a = 45;
b = 47;
if(a == b)
{
cout << "a is equal to b" << endl;
}
else
{
cout << "a is not equal to b" << endl;
}
return 0;
}
In the above example, the value of 'a' is not equal to that of 'b'. Since the expression ( a == b ) is false, therefore the statement in the body of else i.e., 'cout << "a is not equal to b" << endl;' gets executed.
Consider one more example.
#include <iostream>
int main()
{
using namespace std;
int n;
cout << "Enter number" << endl;
cin >> n;
if(n%2 == 0)
cout << "Number is even" << endl;
else
cout << "Number is odd" << endl;
return 0;
}
5
Number is odd
For a number to be even, it must be divisible by 2. This means that it should give a remainder 0 if divided by 2.
We entered 5 here and the value of n%2 i.e. 5%2 is 1. So, the statement in the body of else gets executed and Number is odd is printed on the screen.
#include <iostream>
int main()
{
using namespace std;
int age;
cout << "Enter your age" << endl;
cin >> age;
if(age >= 18)
{
cout << "You are 18+" << endl;
cout << "Eligible to vote" << endl;
}
else
{
cout << "You are not yet 18" << endl;
cout << "Not eligible to vote" << endl;
}
return 0;
}
20
You are 18+
Eligible to vote
In this example, since the user entered the age as 20, which is greater than 18, so the condition age >= 18 became true. Therefore, the statements in the body of if got executed. If the user enters the age less than 18, then the condition 'age >= 18' will become false and the statements in the body of else statement will be executed.
Nested if/else statements
We can also use if or else inside another if or else if statements.
To understand this, let's see an example to print whether a number is the greatest or not by using one if inside another if.
#include <iostream>
int main()
{
using namespace std;
int x = 4, y = 3, z = 5;
if(z > x)
{
if(z > y)
{
cout << "z is the greatest number" << endl;
}
}
return 0;
}
In the above example, the first expression i.e., (x>y) is true. So, the statements enclosed within the curly brackets {} of the first if condition will be executed.
Within the curly brackets, the first statement i.e., if(x>z) will be executed first.
Since this condition is true, the statement cout << "z is the greatest number" << endl; within the curly brackets of this if condition will be executed.
So, first we checked if 'x' is greater than 'y' or not. If it is, then we compared it with 'z'.
Isn't that simple?
Let's see the same example using if...else inside another if...else.
#include <iostream>
int main()
{
using namespace std;
int x = 4, y = 3, z = 5;
if(x > y){
if(x > z)
cout << "x is the greatest integer";
else
cout << "x is not the greatest integer";
}
else
cout << "x is not the greatest integer";
return 0;
}
Here the condition x > y is true. So the statements enclosed within the curly brackets { } of the first if condition will be executed. Within the curly brackets, the first line i.e. if( x > z ) will be executed first. Since this condition is false, the statement cout << "x is the greatest integer"; within the curly brackets of this if condition will not be executed. So, the statement of its corresponding else (i.e. the inner else) cout << "x is not the greatest integer"; will be executed.
We can also do the same thing using &&.
#include <iostream>
int main()
{
using namespace std;
int x = 4, y = 3, z = 5;
if( (x > y) && (x > z))
cout << "x is the greatest integer";
else
cout << "x is not the greatest integer";
return 0;
}
Here, the condition inside if will be true only if both (x > y) and (x > z) are true. If that is the case, then x will be the greatest number otherwise not.
else if statements
Many times we fall in situations when 'if' and 'else' are not sufficient. For example, if you have 5 rupees then you will buy a candy, or if you have 10 rupees, then a chocolate and if more than 100, then a cake. Thanks to C++, because it provides another tool 'else if' to get this done.
Consider this example to find the greatest among three numbers.
#include <iostream>
int main()
{
using namespace std;
int x = 4, y = 5, z = 1;;
if ( (x > y) && (x > z) ){
cout << "x is the greatest integer" << endl;
}
else if ( (y > x) && (y > z) ){
cout << "y is the greatest integer" << endl;
}
else
cout << "z is the greatest integer" << endl;
return 0;
}
We can give condition in else if also. First, the condition of if will be checked. If it is false, then condition of else if will be checked, and if that is also false then else will be executed.
In the above example, we are given three numbers x, y and z and have to find the highest among them.
For that, first, we will compare the first number with the other two i.e., 'x' with both 'y' and 'z'. Now, if the condition (x>y && x>z) is true (if both are true, means x is the greatest ), then the statements enclosed within the curly brackets {} of the first if condition will be executed. If not so, then it will go to else if and check for (y>x && y>z). If this condition is true, then the corresponding statements will be executed, otherwise, it will go to else.
Let's see one more example.
#include <iostream>
int main()
{
using namespace std;
char grade = 'A';
if( grade == 'A' ){
cout << "Excellent !" << endl;
}
else if(grade == 'B'){
cout << "Outstanding !" << endl;
}
else if(grade == 'C'){
cout << "Good !" << endl;
}
else if(grade == 'D'){
cout << "Can do better" << endl;
}
else if(grade == 'E'){
cout << "Just passed" << endl;
}
else if(grade == 'F'){
cout << "You failed" << endl;
}
else{
cout << "Invalid grade" << endl;
}
return 0;
}
First, the condition of if is checked. If it is true, then only the statements inside that 'if' are executed, otherwise it checks the condition inside else if. If it is true, then its body is executed, otherwise next else if is checked. If none of them are true then else is executed.
We can also solve the above example using switch..case, which makes the code much simpler.
Switch..case
Normally, if we have to choose one case among many choices, nested if-else is used. But if the number of choices is large, switch..case is a better option as it makes our code more neat and easier.
Let's have a look at its syntax.
switch(expression)
{
case constant1:
statement(s);
break;
case constant2:
statement(s);
break;
/* you can give any number of cases */
default:
statement(s);
}
In switch...case, the value of the expression enclosed in the brackets ( ) following switch is checked. If the value of the expression matches the value of the constant in case, the statement(s) corresponding to that case will be executed.
If the expression does not match any of the constant values, then the statements corresponding to default are executed.
Now, let's see the above example using switch..case.
#include <iostream>
int main(){
using namespace std;
char grade = 'B';
switch ( grade )
{
case 'A':
cout << " Excellent ! " << endl;
break ;
case 'B':
cout << " Outstanding ! " << endl;
break ;
case 'C':
cout << " Good ! " << endl;
break ;
case 'D':
cout << " Can do better " << endl;
break ;
case 'E':
cout << " Just passed " << endl;
break ;
case 'F':
cout << " You failed " << endl;
break ;
default :
cout << " Invalid grade " << endl;
}
return 0;
}
In this example, the value of grade is B. Since the value of the constants of the first case is not 'B', so case 'B' will be executed and 'Outstanding !' will be printed. Then break statement will terminate the switch without checking the rest of the cases. This is how it works.
Now let's see what happens when we don't add break after the cases.
#include <iostream>
int main(){
using namespace std;
char grade = 'B';
switch ( grade )
{
case 'A':
cout << " Excellent ! " << endl;
case 'B':
cout << " Outstanding ! " << endl;
case 'C':
cout << " Good ! " << endl;
case 'D':
cout << " Can do better " << endl;
case 'E':
cout << " Just passed " << endl;
case 'F':
cout << " You failed " << endl;
default :
cout << " Invalid grade " << endl;;
}
return 0;
}
Good !
Can do better
Just passed
You failed
Invalid grade
In the above example, the value of grade is 'B', so the control jumped to case 'B'. Since there is no break statement after any case, so all the statements after case 'B' will also be executed.
Let's see another example where the value of the expression is an integer.
#include <iostream>
int main(){
using namespace std;
int i = 2 ;
switch ( i )
{
case 1:
cout << "Number is 1" << endl;
break ;
case 2:
cout << "Number is 2" << endl;
break ;
default :
cout << "Number is greater than 2" << endl;
}
return 0;
}
Another form of if else
We can also judge the condition using the ternary operator. The ternary operator checks whether a given condition is true and then evaluates the expressions accordingly. It works as follows.
condition ? expression1 : expression2;
If the condition is true, then expression1 gets evaluated, otherwise expression2 gets evaluated.
#include <iostream>
int main(){
using namespace std;
int age;
cout << "Enter age" << endl;
cin >> age;
(age > 18) ? cout << "eligible to vote" : cout << "not eligible to vote";
return 0;
}
5
not eligible to vote
Here, if the condition (age > 18) is true, then expression1 i.e., cout << "eligible to vote" will get evaluated, otherwise, expression2 i.e., cout << "not eligible to vote" will get evaluated. Since the value of age that we entered (10) is less than 18, therefore expression2 got evaluated and "not eligible to vote" got printed.
Let's see another example in which we want to find the greater among two numbers.
#include <iostream>
int main(){
using namespace std;
int num1 = 4, num2 = 5, num;
num = (num2 > num1) ? num2 : num1;
cout << "The greater number is " << num << endl;
return 0;
}
In this example, if the condition (num2 > num1) is true, then num2 i.e., 5 will get assigned to num, otherwise, num1 i.e., 4 will get assigned to num. In our case, the values of num1 and num2 are 4 and 5 respectively. Thus, the condition 'num2 > num1' is true and the value of num2 i.e., 5 got assigned to num and so 5 got printed.

Britney Spears' harrowing breakdown revisited: Head shaving, 'demons' and gurneys
New Channel 5 documentary Britney Spears- Breaking Point, reveals tragic new details about how her life span out of control
by Frances KindonWith her pigtails and wide-eyed innocence, Britney Spears became an overnight sensation thanks to her first single ...Baby One More Time in 1998.
For four years she was untouchable, scoring hit after hit, making millions from world tours and being named the world's most powerful celebrity by Forbes magazine.
But everything started to crumble in December 2002 when her three-year romance with Justin Timberlake ended amid claims she'd been unfaithful.
The tide of popularity appeared to be turning and the following August she was jeered by fans during a world tour and slammed for kissing Madonna on stage at the MTV Video Music Awards.
Her parents divorced and she eloped to Las Vegas to marry childhood friend Jason Alexander, before their union was annulled just 55 hours later.
New Channel 5 documentary, Britney Spears-Breaking Point, explores how the Louisiana native's quest for normality saw her marry backing dancer Kevin Federline just eight months later - a union that would lead to her unravelling.
"Britney was desperate for love. From the earliest age, Britney wanted everybody to love her, including Kevin," Rob Shuter, former executive editor of US OK Magazine, says.
"And I think that when it didn't work out, it was heartbreaking for her. And I don't think she ever really dealt with it."

Two months after birth of their second son Jayden James, Britney filed for divorce citing irreconcilable differences.
Her increasingly erratic behaviour saw her hit the town with Paris Hilton and Lindsay Lohan sans knickers.
And the death of her beloved aunt, Sandra Covington, is said to have sent her spiralling out of control in January 2007.
She was sent to Eric Clapton's rehab centre, Crossroads, in Antigua but flew straight back to America and headed to Kevin's house, where he refused to let her see their kids.
Steve Dennis, author of Britney - Inside The Dream, says by that point she was no longer "thinking straight".
"Britney is in chaos. She's in turmoil and she's in massive anxiety. And what you see, what we all see,sadly, is Britney acting out, lashing out, rebelling, losing control," he says.
What came next sent shockwaves around the world.
Angry, frustrated and surrounded by 70 or more members of the paparazzi, Britney drove to a nearby hair salon and asked hairdresser Esther Tognozz to shave her head.
Tognozz refused and tried to talk her out of it, but once her back was turned, Britney picked up the clippers and sheared half her hair off herself.
"She had two bodyguards supposedly keeping an eye out to make sure the paparazzi were not getting any pictures," Tognozz recalls as footage shows her aides laughing with photographers.
"They were allowing the paparazzi to take her picture," says Rob Shuter, suggesting they may even have been paid for it.
The saddest part though was Britney's expression as her manic smile gave way to panic and sadness once she realised what she'd done.
Crestfallen, she fretted that her "mum was going to be p***ed," before rallying and heading to the Body and Soul Tattoo studio.
Speaking out for the first time ever, tattooist Emily Wynne Hughes recalled hearing "an insane roaring sound outside" as Britney and the paps pulled up.
"I wasn't sure what was happening, if there was a riot outside and then the flashes came. The door opened slowly and a hooded figure walked in the door," she said.
Britney demanded a tattoo of another woman's lips to begin with, followed by a small cross.
And when Wynne Hughes asked what happened to the star's hair, she was taken aback by her 'weird' reply.
"It was, you know, 'I just don't want anybody, anybody touching my head. I don't want anyone touching my hair. I'm sick of people touching my hair,'" she says.
And far from helping their celebrity charge, the tattoo artist said the troubled star's aides were completely "disengaged".
"It just didn't seem like they cared very much. I've felt this insane sense of anxiety and energy that felt so negative," she said.
"It just seemed like everybody was waiting for the crash to happen."
The following day, Britney continued to strip herself of her manufactured identity, talking in strange accents and wearing different wigs.
Wearing the same clothes as the night before, she tried to check into the five-star Mondrian hotel in Los Angeles with no money or credit cards - just some numbers scribbled on a piece of paper.
When staff refused, she asked to use the pool instead and paraded around in her underwear before shaving her legs at the sink in the changing area.
Hotel guests recalled how she was asking people to be her friend as she downed drink after drink.
According to Rolling Stone she stayed up for 48 hours straight, fearing she was being followed by demons or that a mobile phone charger was taping her thoughts.
Four days later she was back in rehab. Again she left early and went straight to Kevin's. Again, he refused to let her see the kids.
And when her cousin Alli Sims drove her to a nearby garage, it was there that she finally snapped and attacked a photographer and his car with an umbrella.
"She went after us and attacked my truck," Dano Ramos tells the documentary.
"She was grinding her teeth and just beaten my truck up and she started going after [fellow photographer] Roberto, he turns his back and she swipes him in the back with the umbrella."
And author Steve Dennis says her outburst was typical of most human beings when "something just becomes crowded and claustrophobic."
"You lash out. And what was in her hand at that time was an umbrella. And she was lashing out not just at the paparazzi, but at the press and at fame and who she had become and the life that she could never getback," he says.
This time she went to Promises rehab in Malibu and completed her month-long stay.
But her worst nightmare came true when Kevin was granted full custody by the courts in October 2007 after claiming Britney had a habitual, frequent and continuous use of controlled substances and alcohol.
Heartbroken and with no-one around her to trust, she bought two baby blue parakeets and named them Sean and Jayden after her children.
"That's how sad she was. She just needed companionship," says Hollywood gossip journalist Janet Charlton.
Despite Britney's worsening condition, the circus around her only escalated and after one court-appointed visit with her kids, she locked herself in the bathroom with Jayden for three hours.

Once at hospital she was placed on a 5250 psychiatric hold which allowed doctors to detain her for 14 days for her own safety.
Her parents swooped in to take control of her affairs, placing her under a conservatorship that continues to this day.
For her agent Nancy Carson, who'd first met her as a sweet and innocent eight year old, the episode was heartbreaking but relieving, all at the same time.
"I cried. I just was so glad when her parents stepped in and did what they did and they did exactly what they should do as parents," she said.
"Yes, I cried. I loved this little girl, and I knew she was in pain and it broke my heart."
* Britney Spears - Breaking Point airs Sunday, November 3 at 9pm on Channel 5
