Does it work in every browser?
In principle, it works in every modern up-to-date browser. However, there are some known issues with the implementation of certain HTML5 features.
That is why we recommend using the most current version of Google Chrome or Mozilla Firefox.
We haven't tested the app on mobile browsers and the interface is not for touch interaction. In principle, it should work, but it is unsupported.
Does it work without an internet connection?
Yes. After visiting CMDI Maker for the first time, the app is automatically stored in your browser.
If you now call the url cmdi-maker.uni-koeln.de, the app opens even without being online.
Why is CMDI Maker not reachable when the internet connection is offline?
There are basically two options:
1. You are not using the same browser on the same computer you used before. The data is stored in the browser itself,
and is not available in other browsers on the same computer or on different computers.
2. Your browser settings do not allow saving application data on your machine or your browser deletes saved data on exit.
All my data is gone! What happened?
There are basically two options:
1. You are not using the same browser on the same computer you used before. The data is stored in the browser itself,
and is not available in other browsers on the same computer or on different computers.
2. Your browser settings do not allow saving application data on your machine or your browser deletes saved data on exit.
We recommend to additionally backup your data by exporting your project as a CMP file (Hamburger Menu > Export Project to File).
Which profile should I use?
This depends on the intended archive for your data. Contact the archive and ask which metadata variants it accepts.
Where can I learn to use CMDI Maker?
There is a tutorial on how to create IMDI and CMDI files with IMDI profile.
There is also a video on that.
If you want to create CMDI files with ELDP profile, there are some videos on that too.


The Interactive Way To Go: provides a great interactive introduction to the rules and basic strategy of the game.
GoProblems.com: a good place to find go problems for players of all levels. Doing go problems is one of the best things a players can do to help improve their game!
American Go Association: The AGA website is a great place to keep up on the Go happenings of the USA as well as the rest of the world. You can find everything you could need here. News, club listings, links to go equipment retailers, and so much more. Give it a visit and take a look around!
Games Galore: While there is a large variety of equipment for sale online through many retailers, Games Galore is a great option for sourcing your equipment locally. Even better is that they are generous enough to provide us with table space for hosting our club meetings each week, making it a great time to take a look at the equipment they have available or can possibly have ordered for you!
AGA Equipment and Supplies Page: The AGA website has a great directory of online retailers of Go equipment. Check it out if you're looking to get your equipment online.
Online Go Server (OGS): A browser based Go server that doesn't require any kind of desktop client to be installed. It has a very nice interface that is very easy to use. It even provides game review tools that allow for easy game analysis and after-game group reviewing. The website is mobile-friendly and also has an app. There is a very active community of players making finding games very easy.
KGS Go Server: An easy to use go server with a desktop client that doubles as an SGF editor (SGF's are the file type of saved games). Has a good user base of all play levels, making it good for players of any strength to play on.
Internet Go Server (Pandanet): A well established Go server that can be played through a desktop client.
All these servers are great places to play Go. The KGS Server is probably the most recommended for newer players, and the OGS Server the best overall server to play.


This lets you do something very important. It lets you make a call to the same procedure that you are currently running. This runs a second copy of the procedure, which will restore the first copy when it returns.
Let's take a simple example (in rec1.cpp):
/* 1 */ void a(int i) /* 2 */ { /* 3 */ printf("In procedure a: i = %d\n", i); /* 4 */ if (i == 10) a(9); /* 5 */ } /* 6 */ /* 7 */ main() /* 8 */ { /* 9 */ a(10); /* 10 */ } |
You'll note, if i equals 10, then a() calls itself. Let's look at what happens when this is executed. First, we are in main(), and it calls a(10). What happens here is that the computer stores its current context (where it is, and what its local variables are) on the stack. The stack looks like:
| top --> | [main(): line 9] |
Then a(10) is executed. It will print:
In procedure a: i = 10and then it will call a(9). Once again, the computer stores its current context on the stack. The stack now looks like:
| top --> | [a(): line 4, i = 10] | [main(): line 9] |
Then a(9) is executed. It will print:
In procedure a: i = 9Its context is:
| top --> | [a(): line 4, i = 9] |
| [a(): line 4, i = 10] | |
| [main(): line 9] |
and then it will return. When it returns, it pops where it should return off the stack -- this is in procedure a() at line 4, with i equal to 10. The stack once again looks like:
| top --> | [main(): line 9] |
Now, the first thing that happens is that a(10) returns. Again, it pops where it should return off the stack -- this is in procedure main() at line 9. Of course, what happens is that main() exits, and the program ends. Thus, the output is:
In procedure a: i = 10 In procedure a: i = 9
/* 1 */ void a(int i) /* 2 */ { /* 3 */ int j; /* 4 */ /* 5 */ j = i*5; /* 6 */ printf("In procedure a: i = %d, j = %d\n", i, j); /* 7 */ if (i > 0) a(i-1); /* 8 */ printf("Later In procedure a: i = %d, j = %d\n", i, j); /* 9 */ } /* 10 */ /* 11 */ main() /* 12 */ { /* 13 */ int i; /* 14 */ /* 15 */ i = 16; /* 16 */ a(3); /* 17 */ printf("main: %d\n", i); /* 18 */ } |
Again, let's see what happens when it is executed. First, we're in main() which sets i to 16 and calls a(3). This pushes the current context on the stack:
| top --> | [main(): line 16, i = 16] |
Now, we execute a(3). This sets j to 15, and prints out:
In procedure a: i = 3, j = 15It then calls a(2). This pushes the current context on the stack:
| top --> | [a(): line 7, i = 3, j = 15] | [main(): line 16, i = 16] |
And then we call a(2). This sets j to 10, and prints out:
In procedure a: i = 2, j = 10And then it calls a(1). Once again, the current context is pushed onto the stack:
| top --> | [a(): line 7, i = 2, j = 10] |
| [a(): line 7, i = 3, j = 15] | [main(): line 16, i = 16] |
And then we execute a(1). This sets j to 5, and prints out:
In procedure a: i = 1, j = 5And then it calls a(0). Once again, the current context is pushed onto the stack:
| top --> | [a(): line 7, i = 1, j = 5] |
| [a(): line 7, i = 2, j = 10] | |
| [a(): line 7, i = 3, j = 15] | [main(): line 16, i = 16] |
And then we execute a(0). This sets j to 0, and prints out:
In procedure a: i = 0, j = 0Since i is zero, it skips the body of the if statement, prints out:
Later In procedure a: i = 0, j = 0and returns. Now what returning does is restore the top context on the stack, which means that we are in a() at line 7 with i = 1 and j = 5. The stack is now:
| top --> | [a(): line 7, i = 2, j = 10] |
| [a(): line 7, i = 3, j = 15] | [main(): line 16, i = 16] |
It prints out:
Later In procedure a: i = 1, j = 5and a(1) returns. Once again, we restore the top context on the stack, which means that we are in a() at line 7 with i = 2 and j = 10. The stack is now:
| top --> | [a(): line 7, i = 3, j = 15] | [main(): line 16, i = 16] |
It prints out:
Later In procedure a: i = 2, j = 10and a(2) returns. Once again, we restore the top context on the stack, which means that we are in a() at line 7 with i = 3 and j = 15. The stack is now:
| top --> | [main(): line 16, i = 16] |
It prints out:
Later In procedure a: i = 3, j = 15and a(3) returns. Finally, we restore the last context on the stack, which means that we are in main() at line 16 with i = 16. The stack is now empty. It prints out:
main: 16and exits. Thus, the whole output is:
UNIX> rec2 In procedure a: i = 3, j = 15 In procedure a: i = 2, j = 10 In procedure a: i = 1, j = 5 In procedure a: i = 0, j = 0 Later In procedure a: i = 0, j = 0 Later In procedure a: i = 1, j = 5 Later In procedure a: i = 2, j = 10 Later In procedure a: i = 3, j = 15 main: 16 UNIX>
a(int i) { printf("In procedure a: i = %d\n", i); a(i); } main() { a(10); }When you run it, it looks like an infinite loop:
UNIX> rec3 In procedure a: i = 10 In procedure a: i = 10 In procedure a: i = 10 In procedure a: i = 10 ....One difference between infinite recursion and most infinite loops is that you will run out of stack space eventually with infinite recursion and the program will exit. On my machine, if you remove the print statement from rec3.cpp and run it, it eventually seg faults.
int factorial(int i) { int f; f = 1; while (i > 0) { f *= i; i--; } }However, you can also do it recursively. Remember the definition of factorial:
int factorial(int n) { int f; if (n <= 0) return 1; return n * factorial(n-1); }Go ahead and run fact1 and fact2 and see that they return the same output. Use gdb to look at the state of fact2 if you're still a little leery of recursion.
int imult(int a, int b) { int product; product = 0; while (b > 0) { product += a; b--; } return product; }Try it:
UNIX> mult1 4 10 40 UNIX> mult1 10 4 40 UNIX>Or you could do that recursively (in mult2.cpp):
int imult(int a, int b) { int product; if (b <= 0) return 0; return a + imult(a, b-1); }They both work, but mult1 runs faster because it doesn't have to do those stack operations like mult2 has to. Unfortunately, this is hard to time because if you try to use large values of b, mult2 will run out of stack space and seg fault. One way to time it is to run both a lot of times. If you look at mult1.sh and mult2.sh, these are shell scripts that run mult1 and mult2 20 times. If you time them, you'll see that mult1 is much faster:
UNIX> time sh mult1.sh 1000000 ... 1000000 0.0u 0.1s 0:00.33 54.5% 128+225k 0+0io 0pf+0w UNIX> time sh mult2.sh 1000000 ... 1000000 0.7u 0.4s 0:01.36 86.0% 28+1852k 0+0io 0pf+0w UNIX>What this means is that:
int fibonacci(int n) { if (n <= 1) return 1; return fibonacci(n-1) + fibonacci(n-2); }It works fine for small values of n:
UNIX> fib1 1 1 UNIX> fib1 2 2 UNIX> fib1 3 3 UNIX> fib1 4 5 UNIX> fib1 5 8 UNIX> fib1 6 13 UNIX>However, if you think about it, the running time of this program is brutal. Suppose we only care about the number of times that fibonacci() is called. Let this be F(n). F(0) = 1 and F(1) = 1. F(n) is 1+F(n-1)+F(n-2), which means that F(n) is greater than F(n-1)+F(n-2). So, F(2) > 2, F(3) > 3, F(4) > 5, etc. You'll see F(n) is greater than fib(n). As you will learn later, fib(n) = O(1.6)^n, which means that the running time of fib1.cpp is exponential, which is terrible. You'll notice that when you get to values of n in the 30's, fib1 starts slowing down incredibly.
Of course, it doesn't have to be that way. A simple while loop does it in linear time. This is in fib2.cpp, and this one can do fib(40), for example, blazingly fast.
#include <iostream> #include <cstdio> #include <cstdlib> using namespace std; int fibonacci(int n) { int fibim1, fibim2, fibi, i; if (n <= 1) return 1; fibim1 = 1; fibim2 = 1; i = 1; while (1) { i++; fibi = fibim1 + fibim2; if (i == n) return fibi; fibim2 = fibim1; fibim1 = fibi; } } main(int argc, char **argv) { if (argc != 2) { fprintf(stderr, "usage: fib1 n\n"); exit(1); } printf("%d\n", fibonacci(atoi(argv[1]))); } |
More formally, suppose you have n disks that you want to move from tower 0 to tower 1, and that you are able to use tower 2 in the process. You are only allowed to move a disk at a time, and you can only move a disk from one tower to another if that disk is smaller than the top disk on the destination tower.
There is a very elegant solution to this. If n is one, then you simply move the disk. Otherwise, you solve the problem for n-1, moving the top n-1 disks to tower 2, and then you move the bottom disk to tower 1. Finally, you use the solution for n-1 to move the n-1 disks from tower 2 to tower 1.
This maps very well into a recursive subroutine. But before we do that, we need to actually code up the towers of Hanoi.
#include <iostream> #include <deque> #include <cstdio> #include <cstdlib> using namespace std; class Towers { public: Towers(int n); void Make_Move(int from, int to); void Print(); protected: deque <int> T[3]; }; |
This defines a simple Towers class where each tower is represented by a deque. We'd optimally use a stack, but we want to print the towers, so using a deque is easier. We'll push elements on the front and pop them from the front too. Thus, the constructor and Make_Move are pretty simple procedures (in towers.cpp):
Towers::Towers(int n) { int i; for (i = 1; i <= n; i++) T[0].push_back(i); } void Towers::Make_Move(int from, int to) { if (from < 0 || from > 2) { printf("Bad Source Tower (%d)\n", from); } else if (to < 0 || to > 2) { printf("Bad Destination Tower (%d)\n", to); } else if (T[from].empty()) { printf("Can't move from tower %d to %d -- tower %d is empty\n", from, to, from); } else if (!T[to].empty() && T[from][0] > T[to][0]) { printf("Can't move from tower %d to %d -- piece is too big (%d can't go on top of %d)\n", from, to, T[from][0], T[to][0]); } else { printf("Moving %d from tower %d to tower %d\n", T[from][0], from, to); T[to].push_front(T[from][0]); T[from].pop_front(); } } |
To print the towers, I'm going to use ASCII art. See if you can trace through this one:
void Towers::Print() { int mx, mxe, dots, spaces; int i, j, k; mx = T[0].size() + T[1].size() + T[2].size(); mxe = T[0].size(); if (T[1].size() > mxe) mxe = T[1].size(); if (T[2].size() > mxe) mxe = T[2].size(); for (i = mxe-1; i >= 0; i--) { for (j = 0; j < 3; j++) { if (T[j].size() > i) { dots = T[j][T[j].size()-i-1]; } else { dots = 0; } spaces = mx - dots + 1; for (k = 0; k < dots; k++) printf("."); for (k = 0; k < spaces; k++) printf(" "); } printf("\n"); } for (j = 0; j < 3; j++) { for (i = 0; i < mx; i++) printf("-"); printf(" "); } printf("\n"); } |
I have a very simple interactive tower program in tower_play.cpp, which starts with all the rings on tower zero, and then allows you to move a ring at a time by entering the source and destination towers. It prints the towers at the beginning and after each move:
#include "towers.h" main(int argc, char **argv) { Towers *t; int npieces; int from, to; if (argc != 2) { fprintf(stderr, "usage: tower_play size\n"); exit(1); } npieces = atoi(argv[1]); t = new Towers(npieces); t->Print(); while (cin >> from >> to) { t->Make_Move(from, to); printf("\n"); t->Print(); printf("\n"); } } |
Here's a simple example with four rings:
UNIX> tower_play 4 . .. ... .... ---- ---- ---- 0 1 Moving 1 from tower 0 to tower 1 .. ... .... . ---- ---- ---- 0 2 Moving 2 from tower 0 to tower 2 ... .... . .. ---- ---- ---- 1 2 Moving 1 from tower 1 to tower 2 ... . .... .. ---- ---- ---- 0 2 Can't move from tower 0 to 2 -- piece is too big (3 can't go on top of 1) ... . .... .. ---- ---- ---- <CNTL-D> UNIX>
#include <stdio.h> #include "towers.h" void Solve(Towers *t, int from, int to, int npieces) { int i, other; if (npieces == 1) { t->Make_Move(from, to); t->Print(); return; } for (i = 0; i < 3; i++) if (i != from && i != to) other = i; Solve(t, from, other, npieces-1); t->Make_Move(from, to); t->Print(); Solve(t, other, to, npieces-1); } main(int argc, char **argv) { int npieces; Towers *t; if (argc != 2) { fprintf(stderr, "usage: tower_solution size\n"); exit(1); } npieces = atoi(argv[1]); if (npieces <= 0) exit(1); t = new Towers(npieces); t->Print(); Solve(t, 0, 1, npieces); } |
That's pretty elegant, isn't it? Here it is on a 3-piece tower:
UNIX> tower_solution 3 . .. ... --- --- --- Moving 1 from tower 0 to tower 1 .. ... . --- --- --- Moving 2 from tower 0 to tower 2 ... . .. --- --- --- Moving 1 from tower 1 to tower 2 . ... .. --- --- --- Moving 3 from tower 0 to tower 1 . ... .. --- --- --- Moving 1 from tower 2 to tower 0 . ... .. --- --- --- Moving 2 from tower 2 to tower 1 .. . ... --- --- --- Moving 1 from tower 0 to tower 1 . .. ... --- --- --- UNIX>One of the things that I love about the Towers of Hanoi is that once you figure out the recursion, the solution nearly writes itself. You don't have to think about where you are moving the pieces -- the recursion takes care of it automatically.
Can you figure out the number of calls to Make_Move() as a function of n? Let's use those great Unix programs grep and wc to help us:
UNIX> tower_solution 1 | grep Moving Moving 1 from tower 0 to tower 1 UNIX> tower_solution 2 | grep Moving Moving 1 from tower 0 to tower 2 Moving 2 from tower 0 to tower 1 Moving 1 from tower 2 to tower 1 UNIX> tower_solution 3 | grep Moving Moving 1 from tower 0 to tower 1 Moving 2 from tower 0 to tower 2 Moving 1 from tower 1 to tower 2 Moving 3 from tower 0 to tower 1 Moving 1 from tower 2 to tower 0 Moving 2 from tower 2 to tower 1 Moving 1 from tower 0 to tower 1 UNIX> tower_solution 3 | grep Moving | wc 7 56 231 UNIX> tower_solution 4 | grep Moving | wc 15 120 495 UNIX> tower_solution 5 | grep Moving | wc 31 248 1023 UNIX> tower_solution 6 | grep Moving | wc 63 504 2079 UNIX>Let MM(n) be the number of calls to Make_Move() as a function of n. It looks as though:
Can we prove it? Well, it's easy to see that MM(1) = 1. For n > 1, you can see from Solve() that:
So, prove it by induction. If MM(n) = 2n-1 for all values less than n, then :
Awesome. Remember that proof. It will be all over those CS31x classes.

Bio:
I am a Full-Stack Developer looking for new opportunities.
I’ve always enjoyed using technology to improve people’s quality of life, but the recent stagnation of innovations in mechanical engineering/consumer electronics has robbed my passion away, so I've decided to transition into a full-stack web developer. As a developer, I do carry over my design sense, project management experience, and comfort working in fast-pace environments from my previous life.
I love how there are unlimited possibilities in software, and that there is always more to learn. It's wonderful to know that no matter how treacherous my coding adventures get, StackOverflow.com always "got my back".
My favorite aspect about coding is algorithm engineering because it has a similar feel to puzzle-solving, but I also enjoy creating clean apps/websites with Facebook's React and Twitter's Bootstrap.
In my off-time, I attend Argentine Tango classes/milonga weekly; Argentine tango constantly reminds me to never lose sight on how important and wonderful human connection is. You may also periodically find me at comedy open mics/classes (stand-up/sketch/improv).

| num {pillar} | R Documentation |
Constructs a numeric vector that can be formatted with predefined significant digits, or with a maximum or fixed number of digits after the decimal point. Scaling is supported, as well as forcing a decimal, scientific or engineering notation. If a label is given, it is shown in the header of a column.
The formatting is applied when the vector is printed or formatted,
and also in a tibble column.
The formatting annotation and the class survives most arithmetic transformations,
the most notable exceptions are var()
and sd()
.
set_num_opts()
adds formatting options to an arbitrary numeric vector,
useful for composing with other types.
num( x, ..., sigfig = NULL, digits = NULL, label = NULL, scale = NULL, notation = c("fit", "dec", "sci", "eng", "si"), fixed_exponent = NULL ) set_num_opts( x, ..., sigfig = NULL, digits = NULL, label = NULL, scale = NULL, notation = c("fit", "dec", "sci", "eng", "si"), fixed_exponent = NULL )
x |
A numeric vector. |

Blew himself up with a Bunsen burner.
If only he'd had a bit more ambition,
He might have done it with nuclear fission.
There's no better way to make a lesson stick than by adding explosions. People in teen comedies picked up on that years ago.
Nothing on God's green earth is more volatile than the science laboratory materials of a fictional high school. Not even Tokyo. Experiments can be reasonably expected to combust, detonate, singe off a few eyebrows, cause Ash Face, scorch the ceiling, blow out windows, force the evacuation of that wing of the building and/or attempt to attack their creators. If they don't, the class Gadgeteer Genius builds a transdimensional collapsatron out of paperclips.
This is not in the least helped by the teachers, as this is a popular position for the Professor or Mad Scientist. Often they have left a university or a private research institution, possibly through the roof. Compare Disastrous Demonstration and Explosive Results.
Examples
- Ranma ½ does this, in early Season 1, right near the time Ryoga enters the scene. The Chem Club students want to get their hands on Akane and decide to make bombs, which they of course accidentally set off in the chemistry lab (and wind up setting off accidentally during the battle when the mines fail to go off during Ranma/Ryoga's fight).
- Magical Girl Pretty Sammy: This is the opening Washu took in order to study magic. Human in this Alternate Continuity, she nevertheless is the most powerful Mad Scientist in the world.
- Yu-Gi-Oh! GX: Professor Daitokouji/Banner blew himself up at least once. His specific class is left hard to determine, as is every teacher's on that show, but appears to be alchemy (also his side job).
- It is alchemy. When he was absent, Professor Chronos/Crowler took over and blew himself up as well.
- In Futari wa Pretty Cure, explosions seem to be a normal side effect of Honoka's experiments, as demonstrated twice in the first two episodes. And in her dreams. And in the intro.
- Satomi Hakase in Mahou Sensei Negima! has done this at least once, exactly as the main group were entering her lab. Naturally done for humour with everyone only a bit blackened with a few hairs out of place.
- In Digimon Adventure 02, Miyako (Yolei) triggers an explosion that leaves her with an Ash Face.
- Were she not an elementary school teacher, Yoko from Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann would probably go for this - in fact, she once pulled this trope off unintentionally by destroying two Ganmen that were threatening her students.
- Archie Comics: A common situation at Riverdale High.
- Tintin. Happens twice in "Tintin: Land of Black Gold". An oil executive is telling Tintin that he's confident his team of scientists will find the answer as to why petrol is exploding without cause, when one of them rings to report failure. Oh and if they want him to continue, they'll have to build a new lab! In the end Professor Calculus finds the answer, but only after destroying a large part of Marlinspike Hall, much to Captain Haddock's outrage.
- This is more or less a part of Spider-Man's origin. He attended a seminar on radioactive energy. The machines used produced a beam of radiowaves between two generators. The generators were not separated from the public, nor were they sealed off to avoid a random spider falling into the beam and biting a certain Peter Parker. In later retellings, an explosion occured.
- In the French comic Les Profs (The Teachers), the physics/chemistry teacher is always seen performing dangerous experiments that end up blowing up the classroom (one time it happens when he adds olive oil to a tomato salad).
- In Superboy (1994) Robert Lai caused an explosion during a High School chemistry class, though he evidently was not following directions at all since he ended up in detention for it.
- In the Discworld of A.A. Pessimal, Ankh-Morpork's Guild of Assassins School now teaches courses like Applied Exothermic Alchemy, Deployment of Devices, and Bomb Disposal. (how to dispose a bomb so it does exactly what you want it to with regard to the selected target). Teaching staff are not above casually lobbing a Device at a group of students as a sort of practical test of quick hazard recognition, and quick reflexes.
- The parody Bullshot references this trope when Professor Fenton's ditzy daughter drops something in his lab, causing an explosion. "Careful Rosemary! That's how we lost mummy!" His mood changes however when it's revealed the explosion has produced the catalyst he's looking for.
- Bullseye! (1990) had Roger Moore as a conman posing as Bavistock, one of two scientists who've invented a fusion reactor. The scene foreshadows the ending where the scientists are revealed to be frauds themselves, and the fusion reactor they've designed blows up when Margaret Thatcher turns on the power at the official opening ceremony.
Chesterson: Bavistock, I've got a bone to pick with you! I tried to reproduce that experiment of yours in last month's Scientific American. It blew the roof off my frigging garage!Fake Bavistock: Well... maybe you didn't understand the article!Chesterson: And maybe...your design is horseshit!
- Unintentionally done by the teacher in Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory.
- The original The Nutty Professor (1963) opens with Professor Kelp blowing up his classroom.
- Towards the beginning of Where Angels Go, Trouble Follows the Bishop tells the Reverend Mother that he loves coming to St. Francis Academy for Girls because it is always so peaceful and tranquil. Cue loud explosion. In the next scene, the Reverend Mother and the science teacher are cleaning up the lab. The science teacher explains that she had intended to demonstrate that some common household chemicals are dangerous and should be handled with caution, and she had no idea that the girls would use the knowledge to make a bomb. "Never underestimate the Machiavellian deviousness of the adolescent mind," replies the experienced Reverend Mother.
- Captain America: The First Avenger. Howard Stark is testing a tiny particle of energy from the Tesseract:
Stark: Emission signature is unusual. Alpha and beta ray neutral, though I doubt Rogers picked up on that. Seems harmless enough; hard to see what all the fuss is about.(Stark zaps the fragment with electricity, at which point it explodes and hurls him across the room.)Stark: (beat) Write that down.
- In The Amazing Spider-Man, Professor Connors is fighting Peter in his high school, and their battle takes them through the chemistry lab. Connors sees two bottles on the desk, picks them up and mixes them together, and hurls them after Peter before they explode like a grenade. Either the evacuation interrupted what would have been an extremely ill-advised chemistry demonstration, or their universe has some incredibly bad procedures for lab safety. Oh, right, it's the second one, that's why a spider/human and a lizard/human are currently battling each other.
- The Young Poisoner's Handbook: While attempting to make a 'Newton's Diamond' with antimony sulfate, he blows up his chemistry set.
- Percy Jackson And The Sea of Monsters: Spoofed in this children's book. The Weirdness Magnet main character goes to a relaxed, New-Agey school, and his chemistry final is literally "make something explode". Within five minutes, he and his lab partner succeed so spectacularly that the lab has to be evacuated, and the teacher praises them for their instinctive grasp of chemistry.
- Discworld:
- The entire purpose of the Alchemist's Guild seems to be to accidentally blow things up. As one description put it, "Most of the time, the Alchemist's Guild was across the street from the Gambler's Guild. Other times, it was above it, or below it, or falling in small pieces all around it."
Their synthetic ivory is of particular note — unlike most endeavors, the process went swimmingly; they managed it in about a week. Unfortunately, the formula still needs fine tuning, as their billiards games keep getting interrupted by exploding balls. Amusingly, this is a very slightly exaggerated version of the real history of synthetic ivory. The first viable substitute for ivory in billiard balls was a mixture of nitro cellulose (guncotton), camphor, and acetone (very flammable). As guncotton ages it becomes more sensitive to percussion, and so every now and then... "I done seen it all, Sheriff. It were the cue ball what shot first." - Cheery Littlebottom, asked how she'd parted company with the Guild, replied as follows:
"Through the roof, sir. But I think I know what I did wrong."
- The entire purpose of the Alchemist's Guild seems to be to accidentally blow things up. As one description put it, "Most of the time, the Alchemist's Guild was across the street from the Gambler's Guild. Other times, it was above it, or below it, or falling in small pieces all around it."
- Harry Potter:
- At Hogwarts, things blowing up or catching fire is about the least harmful thing that can happen in a classroom. Spilled potions cause boils to sprout all over, or cause whatever they hit to swell to enormous size (whether that's hands, nose, eyeballs, you name it.) Then again, the explosion of the Swelling Solution was deliberate...
- This is a big part of the reason why Hogwarts exists: underage wizards are expected to make mistakes and/or release accidental magic, and it's better to have them all in one place with competent adults to fix the disasters. Plus, with magic medicine, anything that isn't instantly fatal is generally fixable.
Hagrid: I mean, it's always bin a bit of a risk sendin' a kid ter Hogwarts, hasn't it? Yer expect accidents, don' yeh, wit hundreds of underage wizards all locked up tergether, but attempted murder, tha's diff'rent.
- The Dresden Files:
- In White Night, Harry, under a lot of pressure and stressed to the eyeballs, gives into anger and tests Molly by seeing whether or not she can shield herself against a slow-moving fireball. He cancels the spell once he sees she's about to break down.
- Keep in mind Harry himself admits he's not great at off the cuff magic that isn't big and violent. He'd been planning the ball of sunshine trick for awhile because Molly needed to be taken down a peg.
- In Small Favor, Harry reveals that he and his Evil Mentor, Justin DuMorne, used to play catch as part of practice. With fireballs.
- The chemistry test in Murderess. It requires students to mix five ingredients from an assortment of test tubes, and actually states in its instructions that a small explosion would cause a 10 point deduction, and a large one would cause a 40 point one. Lu, having no knowledge whatsoever in chemistry, randomly mixes five ingredients and causes a major explosion which occurs, strangely enough, on Bridgets desk.
- Occurs in several tales on Are You Afraid of the Dark?: A High School is haunted by the ghost of a girl who died in a lab explosion... The school Nerd defeats an evil water spirit (made of water) with manganite ("Mix water with manganite and kaboom!") and other chemicals from the school lab...
- Bill Nye the Science Guy embraced this trope. "And now, for a really big chemical reaction."..... BOOM. Bill once displayed the chemical formula for nitroglycerin. He then proceeded to drop the formula, and it exploded.
- MythBusters pretty much exemplifies this trope. No episode is complete without something exploding (
for educational purposesFor Science!, of course!). It was so popular, Discovery decided to distill the explosions into a new show—Smash Lab. Too bad they forgot that the success of MythBusters is due as much to the people who run it as the experiments themselves. - Brainiac: Science Abuse: It doesn't matter what they're experimenting with, they're going to blow something up.
- Dead Gorgeous: In the first episode, Hazel causes a (small) explosion in the school lab despite her experiment seeming to involve nothing more dangerous than coloured foam.
- Family Matters: In an All Just a Dream episode, Laura dreamed that Steve Urkel built an atomic bomb for his science fair project.
- Another episode, which played out as a Courtroom Drama, had Steve accused of negligently blowing up the science lab. Of course, he was framed by someone specifically invoking this trope through deliberate sabotage.
- Life with Boys: A flashback shows Allie somehow causing an explosion in a science class that turns Tess blue.
- Doctor Who. The Meet Cute between the Doctor and Jo Grant. The Doctor is singing "I don't want to set the world on fire..." when his equipment blows up, producing copious amounts of smoke. Jo grabs a fire extinguisher and douses the laboratory bench, only to get shouted at by the Doctor for ruining three months of work.
- Blake's 7. In "The Harvest Of Kairos", Avon is poking an alien rock with a technical implement in the foreground, as the others are busy with tactical technobabble. It gives off a small explosion and they all turn to him.
Avon: Sorry.
- Inverted in the My Chemical Romance video for "I'm Not Okay", since they are shown in chemistry class and none of them manages to cause an explosion (though Gerard does smack himself in the face somehow).
- In one episode of Yes What, Bottomley switches the labels on Dr. Pym's chemical flasks during a chemistry lesson, causing him to blow up the classroom.
- Beavis And Butthead: Played with in Beavis and Butt-Head in Virtual Stupidity. "Are explosions science?"  Notably, if you succeed, you get the ability to make firecrackers. Bear in mind that the key ingredient in these, if memory serves, is black powder, isn't it?
- Escape From St. Mary's: Mrs. Desai knows you're only in the chemistry lab to make bombs.
- El Goonish Shive briefly subverts this: in a setting rife with magic, weresquirrels, Hammerspace and people who seem unable to hold onto their gender for 24 hours straight, the science teacher is a completely ordinary person who's exasperated by the disrespect the main characters pay to the laws of physics. It should be noted, however, that the first real plotline in the comic was about a science experiment that had come to life and attacked, although when it came back to life a few plotlines later it was retconned to have been an attack by an interdimensional rival instead.
- Scary Go Round: One of the first plot lines of uses this trope.
- The Wotch has quite a messy science class.
- Miscellaneous Error features Jack nonchalantly telling his father about his typical school day, which includes blowing up chemistry labs.
- The Simpsons:
- "Bart the Genius": Bart causes a classroom to fill up with green goo by mixing chemicals.
- "She Of Little Faith" had an entire beginning where Homer teaches Bart and Milhouse how to launch a model rocket — with explosive results.
- On The Powerpuff Girls, Past!Utonium randomly mixed chemicals while goofing around in science class and accidentally set the school on fire.
- On American Dragon: Jake Long, Jake and Spud blow up the Huntsclan Academy lab while trying to brew a potion of dragon slaying.
- In Avatar: The Last Airbender the teaching of fire-benders seems to involve lots of flame and explosions. But then.... they're fire-benders.
- Camp Lazlo: In "Sweet Dream Baby" the Jelly Beans manage to put their cabin into orbit with something they mixed up in a store bought chemistry kit.
- Taz-Mania: In "The Thing That Ate the Outback", Taz creates the eponymous thing with a mail-order chemistry kit.
- The Bully does this for fun in Fantastic Mr. Fox; his partner is not amused.
- Nothing explodes, but the general spirit is the same; the first lesson given by Professor Hank McCoy of X-Men: Evolution, knowing the general mindset of his high-school-age students, is how to make a Stink Bomb.
- In the Foghorn Leghorn cartoon "Little Boy Boo", Egghead Jr. is mixing chemicals with his chemistry set. Foggy thinks he's making soda pop and shakes the tube to make it fizz. It promptly explodes.
- Possible in some demonstrations in high schools, such as placing an alkali metal in water. Metals that react more energetically can shatter the container if too much is placed in it.
- A good example is demonstrated HERE, at 19:20 in, in a public demonstration by The Royal Institution.
- Happens every so often in chemistry research labs, as can be seen on research chemists' blogs.
- Read this discussion.  You may have to scroll down a bit to get to the actual school pyrotechnics.
- Nitrogen Triiodide. Freakin' NI3. Staple of mischievous chemistry students and show-off professors across the world.  However, unlike most unstable stuff, it may be handled more or less safely upon mixing and is primed only when it dries up. Hence the popularity.
- R.W.Wood's biography (which in itself is twice more entertaining than 9/10 of "Mad Scientist" fiction, and half again weirder) specifically mentions his nitrogen-iodine experiments. He was already pyro-savvy, so he split it into several little piles... and when he tested first dried pinch its explosion scattering a good spoonful of almost ready touch-sensitive explosive crystals through the entire room...
- Once in Soviet times students in Voronezh University ladies' dormitory were quite annoyed by their porter due to her habit of night patrols. Enter the... Chemistry students and enigmatic faint smell of ammonia rising from the corridor's floor. Next morning she was found sitting atop her stool with boots. This little experience apparently taught her something valuable about wisdom of not sharing one's insomnia with everyone around and about peaceful coexistence with bunch of crazy students in general.
- The university Missouri S&T actually offers a minor in explosives. And they're not kidding. Seeing as how they were originally Missouri School of Mining and Engineering, or something like that, its hardly surprising.
- They now also offer a Masters!
- And a summer camp!
- The New Mexico Institute of Mining and Technology also has an explosives division. These guys are quite infamous around the town for setting off explosions that would probably cause air raid alarms if they were anywhere else. Shockwaves powerful enough to rattle windows are not unheard of, to the great amusement of the university's students. Fun fact: when the Mythbusters need to set off a truly large explosion, this is where they go to do it.
- Colorado School of Mines offers an explosives minor as well.
- Purdue University professor George H. Goble won the 1996 Ig Nobel Prize in Chemistry for his world record of lighting a barbecue in 3 seconds. He did this by dumping a 3 gallon bucket of liquid oxygen on 60 pounds of coals; the resulting fireball reached 10,000 degrees Fahrenheit. For those curious to see what the fuss is about, here is a video, and photos and an interview.
- Training in US Army ROTC falls under a series of courses entitled "Military Science." By the time they graduate, a cadet will have worked with AT4s, Claymore mines, frag grenades and field artillery.
- The entire point of Thomas Gray's Mad Science
- John D. Clark's book Ignition! is a subversion - as a longtime researcher in liquid rocket fuels, he hoped to teach future researchers to avoid explosions by mentioning what could go wrong (Teflon "eroding like sugar in hot water" when they tried chlorine trifluoride, for one) Of course, it may have had the opposite effect.
- A classic chemistry experiment is corroding a penny using hydrochloric acid to separate the zinc from the copper and measure its composition. One day, a substitute teacher decides to do this experiment but sees they're out of hydrochloric acid. Figuring any strong acid will work, the teacher decides to substitute nitric acid. Any other strong acid would have subbed in just fine, but nitric acid doesn't work because nitrate is a stronger oxidizing agent than protons are, so instead of producing hydrogen as a byproduct, it produced poisonous NO2. The school had to be evacuated.
- A middle-school science teacher attempted to demonstrate methods of identifying a metal by the color of flames when whiskers of the metals were ignited. They did this at their desk, over a pile of paperwork. The fire chief was less than amused.
- One chemistry lecturer would turn up to a particular lecture carrying 3 balloons and pick a guinea pig student to light them with a long taper. One contained pure oxygen, one pure hydrogen and one, a random mix of oxygen and hydrogen. Not so much fire, but explosions loud enough that other people in the building had called bomb squads in the past.
- In a strange blend of this and religion, in The '40s and The '50s, there was a prominent preacher and professor who used gloves that zapped lightning during his sermons, mostly as a response to the whole Science versus Religion debate.

Full Stack Developer
My name is Sammy Cullinan and I am a Full Stack Web Developer. I graduated from Arizona State University in 2019 with a degree in Biochemistry. Throughout college I always had an interest in programming languages and would occasionally try to teach myself. Following graduation and a few attempts at learning coding I realized that I thoroughly enjoyed coding. It was then I decided to pursue a career in programming and web development. I was accepted into the University of Arizona's Coding Bootcamp where I learned full-stack development and completed the course in November 2020. I am knowledgable in HTML5, CSS3, Bootstrap, JavaScript, ES6, jQuery, AJAX, CDN, Node.js, Express.js, MySQL, MySQLite, MongoDB, Mongoose, React, GraphQL, and Git. I am also familiar with Test-Driven-Development (TDD), Object-Oriented Programming (OOP), Object Relational Mapping (ORM), and Model-View-Controller (MVC).


hello, fellow internet user.
My name is Anmol Gupta and I made this website. (yes you read that right)
this is actually my cs50w project0

Due to the size and delicate nature of insects as a food product, they need to be roasted carefully to avoid over cooking. Most insects go black and taste bitter when overcooked, not too dissimilar to nuts. Here at Grub we find the most effective and simple way to roast insects is to lightly coat them in soy sauce and wrap them in tin foil. Roast within the foil to begin and then open up and finish them off with direct heat. This essentially steams the soy sauce around the insects and then finishes them with a crisp before eating.
Pre-heat oven to 180 degrees centigrade then place the soy coated crickets, wrapped in tin foil on the top shelf for 10 minutes. Next open up the tin foil and give the insects a shake to stop from sticking. Place back in the oven for another 3-5 minutes until all are dry, golden brown, fragrant and crispy.
Pre-heat oven to 180 degrees centigrade. Remove the legs and wings and then coat in soy sauce and wrap in tin foil. Place on top shelf of oven and cook for 12 minutes. Next open up the tin foil and give the insects a shake to make sure they’re not sticking. Place back in the oven for a further 3-5 minutes until they are all dry, golden brown, fragrant and crispy.
Pre-heat oven to 160 degrees centigrade and place the soy coated worms in tin foil for 10 minutes. Next open up the tin foil and give the worms a shake to make sure they are not sticking. Place back in the oven for a further 3-5 minutes until they are all dry, fragrant and crispy. These are also very tasty if you bruise a few garlic cloves and roast it with the meal worms.
Pre- heat oven to 160 degrees centigrade and place the soy coated worms in tin foil for 8 minutes. Next open up the tin foil and give the worms a shake to make sure they are not sticking. Place back in the oven for a further 2-5 minutes until they are all dry, fragrant and crispy. These are also very tasty if you bruise a few garlic cloves and roast it with the buffalo worms.

This method executes a query and serialize its results using a chosen serialization method. The following serialization methods are available: JSON-XML-hybrid, JSON, XML, Text, HTML, and XHTML.
It is also possible to use the 28.io serialization method. The 28.io serialization produces a JSON object with metadata about the items produced as query result. This serialization method format is unstable and will be documented as soon we are ready to commit to backward compatibility.
If the query specifies the response content-type or encoding using the HTTP response module and the query execution completes without raising errors, its serialization method cannot be overridden through this api. Similarly, if the query specifies a response status code and the query execution completes without raising errors, the HTTP status code set by the query is systematically used as the response status code.
If the query does not specify a response content-type, the serialization method can be chosen by means of the Accept
header or by specifying the format
parameter. In case the query does not specify a response content-type and no serialization method is specified, JSON-XML-hybrid is used.
Specifically, the serialization method is chosen as follows:
Accept
header is specified and if it contains at least one supported mime-type/charset pair, the serialization method corresponding to the most preferred one (according to the "q" modifier first and the order in which the mime-types are specified second) among those supported is chosen;format
parameter is specified, the corresponding serialization method is chosen;If the Accept header is specified and it contains at least one supported mime-type, the preferred supported mime-type is used to choose the serialization method, according to the following mapping:
application/mixed-json-xml
: JSON-XML-hybrid Serializationapplication/json
or any mime-type which ends with +json
: JSON Serializationtext/xml
, application/xml
or any mime-type which ends with +xml
: XML Serializationtext/html
: HTML Serializationapplication/xhtml+xml
: XHTML Serializationapplication/28io+json
: 28.io Serialization (format definition unstable)* / *
: the Accept
header is ignored and the format parameter, if specified, is used to choose the serialization method.Any mime-type not matching one of the conditions listed above is not supported by this resource.
If the format parameter is used to choose the serialization method, the following mapping is used:
.mixed
: JSON-XML-hybrid Serialization.json
: JSON Serialization.xml
: XML Serialization.text
: Text Serialization.html
: HTML Serialization.xhtml
: XHTML Serialization.28io-json
: 28.io Serialization (format definition unstable).The content-type of the response is determined as follows:
Accept
header specified in the request, an error will be raised and the response status code will be set to 406
. Note that application/mixed-json-xml
is treated as * / *
when considering if the content-type set by the query is accepted or not.Accept

or application/mixed-json-xml

THE ARRIVAL A film review by Steve Rhodes Copyright 1996 Steve Rhodes
RATING (0 TO ****): ***
Never reach beyond your grasp, reach for the stars.
-Robert Browning
Tired of overhyped shows with big budget stars? Want to see an old fashion grade B sci-fi flick? Well, I have just what you are looking for, THE ARRIVAL. Within the parameters of this genre, THE ARRIVAL is a fun and surprisingly good film. It is funny without ever lapsing into self-parody.
In the opening, that I worried would be an omen for the audience, scientist Ilana Green (Lindsay Crouse) looks out on a green field of wildflowers in the Arctic and proclaims a single sentence, "Shouldn't be here." It turns out that I was glad I was at this show, but in the next scene when I saw nerdy Charlie Sheen as radio astronomer Zane Ziminski, I began to worry again. Zane has classic bad glasses, a goatee from the 60s, and a burr haircut to boot. A highly overdrawn character to say the least.
Zane works at a Search for Extra-Terrestrial Intelligence (SETI) facility.  When he plays the 42 second tape to his boss at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory, Phil Gordian (Ron Silver), Zane does not get the response he expects. Gordian tells him, "searching for ETs in this political environment is a tough sell." He then goes on to explain how Zane is being downsized out of his job effective immediately. Zane is nonplused calling his find, "the premier scientific discovery of the twentieth century."
As in most B movies, there are a couple of unnecessary romantic subplots. Zane can not understand his beautiful wife and successful stock broker Cher (Teri Polo). Looking at her he remarks, "Boolean logic I trust. Algorithms I trust. Beautiful women are beyond me."
Soon the mysterious holes in the atmosphere that Ilana Green is investigating and the communication from outer space that Zane Ziminski (love that name) is digging into, become linked in a massive problem for the entire planet. Along the way, the script mixes in a lot of natural comedy, both in words and in action. Zane threatens Gordian with, "What do I want to do?  Later Gordian warns, "If you can't tend to your own planet, you don't deserve to live here." The funniest scene in the show is the bathtub one, which will have you in stitches. The show is also inventive, a good example of this being how Zane extricates himself when trapped underground.
THE ARRIVAL runs a little long at 1:55, but it keeps your interest up. It is rated PG-13. There is no sex or nudity, and only a little violence, mostly of the non-threatening sci-fi variety. Probably the scariest scene involves big scorpions hidden in Green's bed. The show would be fine for kids over say 8 and perhaps younger. I recommend the picture to you and rate it ***.
**** = One of the top few films of this or any year. A must see film. *** = Excellent show. Look for it. ** = Average movie. Kind of enjoyable. * = Poor show.  Totally unbearable.

The Internet is a global system of interconnected computer networks that interchange data. When an individual goes to a website like www.espn.go.com, their computer sends a HTTP Request to a server. The server finds the appropriate HTML document and sends it back to the user's computer where a web browser interprets the page and displays it on the user's screen. Watch this video for a better explaination.
HTMLHTML is an ancornym that stands for Hypertest Markup Language. HTML documents make up the majority of the content on the web. HTML documents contain text content which describes "what you see" and markup which describes "how it looks". This video provides a good overview.
Tags and ElementsHTML documents are made of HTML elements. When writing HTML, we tell browsers the type of each element by using HTML tags. This video diferentiates the two.
Inline vs. Block ElementsHTML elements are either inline or block. Block elements form an "invisible box" around the content inside of them.

CrankyCritic® movie reviews: Cabaret Balkan Not Rated, 105 minutes Starring Miki Manojlovic, Sergei Trifunovic, Mirjana Jokovic and Lazar Ristovski Screenplay by Dejan Dukovski and Goran Paskaljevic Based on the Dukovski's play The Powder Keg Directed by Goran Paskaljevic website: http://www.paramountclassics.com/cabaret/index.html"
IN SHORT: Arthouse connoisseurs only
Original title The Powder Keg, which is a name Kevin Costner has grabbed for a flick in development. Thus, the name change.
The Website says: Over the course of one evening various interlinked stories unravel; A boxer discovers the extent to which his life has been a facade and fights his best friend in an act of desperate retaliation; A former Sarajevo professor is too proud to work for the new refugee mobsters dealing in gas, cigarettes, and other contraband, opting instead to drive a bus; A young woman, harassed during a bus hijacking, ends up safely in the arms of her boyfriend only to find that their lovers quarrel places them in an absurdly dangerous situation. In his focus on the lives of ordinary people living in the dawn of an awakening political consciousness, Belgrade-born Paskaljevic masterfully balances dark comedy with heightened realism, creating a compelling exploration of the human spirit.
Cranky sat through Cabaret Balkan watching the dehumanizing portraits of lives in a country on the brink of war thinking, were we bombing the wrong side? As the various stories play out, there are a couple of none too subtle remarks about racial or religious background which to American eyes meant very little. All them Balkanites/ Yugoslavs/ Macedonians look pretty much the same. Nor do the male of the species come off as particularly enlightened.
Lessee what we've got here.  The other "friend" then proceeds to reveal a 20 years long systematic emasculation of his buddy. One smashed beer bottle in the gut later, the survivor heads off in a drunken haze, boarding a train with no destination in mind. But there's a blonde on the train that gets the attention of his stunted little willie and while she attempts to defend herself from the coming rape, her weapon of choice, a grenade, works against her. Meanwhile, in a hijacked bus across town, tough guy with a knife is sexually terrorizing the hostage passengers.  The lout who is her protector automatically assumes that it is the woman's fault that she was attacked; that she may have derived pleasure of some sort from the attack and so has emasculated him. Like I wrote, a very enlightened male populace. The stories get even more unpleasant, culminating in a lynching and a string of car explosions symbolizing the "powder keg" that is modern Yugoslavia pushing civilized behavior beyond the boiling point to utter depravity.
OK film students and arthouse cineastes, this is the kind of stuff you maintain you like. If it turns your stomachs and makes you ashamed to be part of the greater human race, then it must be good film and everyone should see it.
 Were Cranky able to set his own price to Cabaret Balkan, he would have paid...
$1.00
I save the zero for total drek. Cabaret Balkan wasn't drek, though it is not to my taste. Thoroughly unpleasant and not recommended to anyone outside of the film student arthouse circuit.

Algorithm Visualizer is an interactive way and platform that visualize the algorithms in two domain i.e. Path Finding and Sort Visual algorithm. The project focuses on visualizng the algorithm and try to make easier to understand and learn the algorithm.
Alot of research has been done by global univsersities about the current process of learning and understanding the algorithm, one of the creativity way is visualization.
Sometimes, it is harder to understand the algorithm by just reading the theory. So visualization will help to learn better.
Path SortAt its core, a pathfinding algorithm seeks to find the shortest path between two point. It will cover the algorithms like BFS, DFS, Dijkstra’s and A* algorithm. User can add the walls in between points to make a complicated path. User can also choose the different mazes like random and recursive.
Sorting is used to sort the element from array of lists. It will cover the algorithms like bubble, merge, quick and heap sort. User can choose the size of array, speed of algorithm. User can also generate a list of new array. Enjoy learning with your own speed i.e. slow, medium, fast!
Adding walls, generate mazes and patterns from the "Mazes & Patterns". Walls are impenetrable. Dragging nodes in sort, You can clear the current path, clear walls, clear the entire board, and adjust the visualization speed.
Algorithm is set of rules and process to solve a problem. It is also a set of well defined and sequence solution of problem. Algorithm can be used to solve a simple as well as complex.
At its core, a pathfinding algorithm seeks to find the shortest path between two points.Some of the algorithms are BFS, DFS, Dijkstra’s and A* algorithm.
Sorting the array of items with required speed and acquire patterns.Set of algorithm which will be used for sorting is Bubble sort, Merge sort, Quick sort, Heap sort.
It is used to represnt the latest work or change done in the current working project with the source code. So,the people can contribute to project and give some suggestions to make project user friendly. Source code will be available on github as a private with you can request through gmail.

- You want to allow users to add or remove files, and to change the file names.
Don't use the upload collection if:
- The user can upload only one file to the app. In this case, use the FileUploader control instead.
Required
-
To use all CRUD operations need to describe
UploadCollectionService

Rank-Select acceleration index.
Index uses two-level acceleration structure: bcount - running total popcount for all (possible) blocks (missing blocks give duplicate counts as POPCNT(N-1) + 0). subcount - sub-count inside blocks

Biggest open and standards-based platform
Great way to reach people
Would be great if it were fast as well ;)
Speed is determined by many things
DOM, graphics, JavaScript
This talk is about JavaScript
The Epic Citadel demo is one way to measure
Large C++ codebase compiled to JS using Emscripten
Uses only standard web technologies, JS and WebGL
High-end native apps can run in JS!
Launched March 2013, browsers improved since
| back then | today | |
|---|---|---|
only ran in Firefox | runs in Firefox, Chrome | |
20 sec. startup | 10 sec. startup | |
40fps | 60fps in Firefox, Chrome |
JS engines don't always run at full speed
Motivated asm.js, an easy to optimize subset of JS
function asmCode(global, env, buffer) {
'use asm';
var HEAP = new global.Uint8Array(buffer);
function fib_like(x) {
x = x|0;
if ((x >>> 0) < 2) return HEAP[x]|0;
return ((fib_like((x-2)|0)|0) + (fib_like((x-1)|0)|0))|0;
}
return fib_like;
}
HEAP cannot be replaced
|0 trick ensures 32-bit ints
Typed arrays
Emscripten benchmark suite (VMs and Emscripten from Sep 13 2013, run on 64-bit ubuntu 12.04)
source: @jgw, Box2D Addendum; axis is time slower than native, lower is better
| Box2dWeb - | Port using "typical" JS | |
| asm.js - | Port using asm.js |
asm.js is faster than "typical" JavaScript on Internet Explorer, Chrome and Firefox
Began as a research project at Mozilla
Every compiler (CoffeeScript, Google Web Toolkit, etc.) generates a particular pattern of JS
Emscripten and Mandreel converged on a pattern for compiled C++ in JS
asm.js is a formal definition of that pattern, with some improvements
Ok, near-native speed on Firefox and Chrome...
...but some of us use Safari or IE?
All browsers optimize JS, but decide which aspects to focus on at which times
source: arewefastyet.com; x axis is time, y axis is milliseconds (lower is better)
Very close on some, farther on others
Experimenting with using LLVM as a JIT
IE11, currently in pre-release, looks promising - I've seen it beat other browsers on some JS tests
Supports WebGL!
So safe to assume typed arrays will be fast, which means asm.js will be fast
JS can run at about half the speed of native code
Why just half - what are the remaining issues?
JavaScript numbers are 64-bit doubles
Often take more CPU cycles to compute
Require more memory bandwidth
Preliminary tests on Firefox show 10-20% speed difference on relevant code
Sometimes possible to do 32-bit math as an optimization
var floats = new Float32Array(calc());
floats[0] = floats[1] + floats[2];
floats[1] = floats[0] + floats[2];
floats[2] = floats[1] + floats[2];
Mathematically provable that those additions can be 32-bit
No reason JS engines cannot do this right now (and Firefox is working on it)
A "fragile" optimization though
var floats = new Float32Array(calc());
floats[0] = floats[1] + floats[2] + 1; // can't
floats[1] = floats[0] + floats[2] + 1; // be
floats[2] = floats[1] + floats[2] + 1; // optimized
But ES6 (proposal for the next version of JS) includes Math.fround, which rounds to 32-bit precision
var floats = new Float32Array(calc());
floats[0] = Math.fround(floats[1] + floats[2]) + 1;
floats[1] = Math.fround(floats[0] + floats[2]) + 1;
floats[2] = Math.fround(floats[1] + floats[2]) + 1;
Now it's optimizable!
Single Instruction, Multiple Data: SSE, NEON, etc.
Large parts of CPUs dedicated to SIMD
Usable from C++, Mono, Dart, etc.
John McCutchan from Google wrote a proposal for SIMD in JS
var x = float32x4(1, 2, 3.14159, 22.5);
var y = float32x4(0, 0, 1, 0);
var z = SIMD.add(x, y);
Immutable 128-bit values, designed for what CPUs provide
Potentially big (e.g. 300% in some cases) speedups on certain types of code
Collaboration is ongoing with Google, Mozilla, Intel and TC39
Web workers allow use of multiple CPU cores
Can transfer typed arrays, no copying
But threads can't read&write to the same data
Good for preventing data races, but bad for some types of projects (for example, modern game engines are heavily multithreaded)
Various proposals, some experiments, but no clear direction yet
Would require all vendors to agree and standardize something new and complex
Part of the challenge is figuring out how it fits in with the rest of the web, which does not currently have data races at all
Already many apps run +- native speed
BananaBread, a port of the Sauerbraten First Person Shooter (FPS) to JS+WebGL
Running inside it: Boon, another FPS
Boon runs in a web worker
Input events are proxied to it, output of software renderer is sent back
We push those pixels to a WebGL texture
Less than 100 lines of code to integrate the two
Both games run at once at 60fps on a very average laptop
JS is close and getting closer to native speed
Even on missing pieces (SIMD, float32, etc.), progress is happening
That's it! :) Questions?
