Classy Modules
A look at classes and modules in Ruby
April 23, 2015
On the surface classes and modules look very similar in Ruby.
But even though they both encapsulate several methods, Classes are more like factories and Modules are more like libaries.
Factories pump out objects. That's exactly what classes do when you call Class.new
. A new object is created that inherits all the attributes of the class. If it's a kayak factory the kayak object that is created has attributes like length, color, and number of seats.
But you wouldn't get that from a module.
Libraries give you knowledge. You go into them and reference all the different pieces of wisdom that humankind have created. You pull out what you need.
In a library you could learn where to paddle your kayak. How to fish off of your kayak. How to put your kayak on your car. These are all bits of knowledge that you can reference.
Modules work the same way. Over time you will start to build up a libary of methods that take care of specific jobs. You don't want to re-write these methods from scratch, so you put them in your modules and bring those modules into your code as needed.
One example would be a "login" module. If every web site you build requires authentication to work, then you'll be writing login code over and over. Unless you do it right once and plop it in your library.
Then you bring in your module and use what methods you need.

Value
Plot(s) showing the desired descriptive data comparing the raw data, the cleaned data and the three different adjustment options for multiple testing.
Details
This function has been developed to create three plots:
The two primary data quality indicators over time. The two primary data quality indicators include: 1) The percent of observations with missing data for n_clients
,
n_status_c
or totpos_c
(in the cleaned data); and, 2) The percent of observations with invalid values for n_clients
, n_status
,
testpos
or knownpos
(in the raw data).
HIV testing coverage over time. For comparison purposes, HIV testing coverage is calculated using the raw and cleaned data and also using the three adjustment
options for multiple testing (1. Using the impute option; 2. Using the remove option; and, 3. Using the set to maximum option).
HIV prevalence over time. For comparison purposes, HIV prevalence is calculated using the raw and cleaned data and also using the three adjustment
options for multiple testing (1. Using the impute option; 2. Using the remove option; and, 3. Using the set to maximum option).

Cordova Plugin Support
Crosswalk for iOS provides support for Cordova Plugins by introducing the Cordova.framework based on the Crosswalk Extension mechanism. The Cordova extension is responsible for managing the life cycle of the Cordova Plugins, replicates the environment that Cordova Plugins run in, and provides the functionalities that Cordova Plugins need based on the Crosswalk Extension framework. You can leverage the existing Cordova Plugins to extend Crosswalk's functionalities without changing any code of the plugins.
Cordova Plugin API
We are going to support all the Cordova Plugin API in the coming future, the status of API availability is:
Supported
- org.apache.cordova.battery-status
- org.apache.cordova.console
- org.apache.cordova.contacts
- org.apache.cordova.device
- org.apache.cordova.device-motion
- org.apache.cordova.device-orientation
- org.apache.cordova.dialogs
- org.apache.cordova.file
- org.apache.cordova.file-transfer
- org.apache.cordova.geolocation
- org.apache.cordova.globalization
- org.apache.cordova.inappbrowser
- org.apache.cordova.media
- org.apache.cordova.media-capture
- org.apache.cordova.network-information
- org.apache.cordova.vibration
- org.apache.cordova.splashscreen
- org.apache.cordova.statusbar
Under Development
You are warmly welcome to contribute together with us to enable more Cordova Plugins for Crosswalk.
Quickstart
In this section we'd like to show you a simple demo application with org.apache.cordova.device
embedded to demonstrate the processes to create an application with Cordova Plugin support.
Setup DeviceDemo Project
Create DeviceDemo Project
We need to create an application project to host the Cordova plugin and the web resources.
Create
DeviceDemo
ProjectOpen Xcode. Create an iOS application with the "Single View Application" template with project name: "DeviceDemo". Select "Swift" as project language.
For quick demo, replace the auto-generated
ViewController.swift
with the corresponding file in crosswalk-ios/AppShell/AppShell/CordovaViewController.swift, which has setup a XWalkView instance for you already.Just clear the contents of the auto-generated
ViewController.swift
file, replace them with: crosswalk-ios/AppShell/AppShell/CordovaViewController.swift.
Use CocoaPods to integrate the crosswalk-ios and crosswalk-extension-cordova into the project.
- In the
DeviceDemo
directory, create a file calledPodfile
:> cd DeviceDemo > touch Podfile
With the contents as below:
platform :ios, '8.1' use_frameworks! pod 'crosswalk-extension-cordova', '~> 1.1'
This will tell CocoaPods that the deploy target is iOS 8.1+ and to integrate library
crosswalk-extension-cordova
with the latest version of1.1.x
. Remember to adduse_frameworks!
which is becausecrosswalk-ios
is partly written in Swift and it has to be built as a framework instead of a static library.You may notice that we haven't added the dependency of
crosswalk-ios
. This is not necessary becausecrosswalk-extension-cordova
depends oncrosswalk-ios
and the dependency is automatically handled by CocoaPods.- Install the
Pod
targets into the project.
Quit the Xcode firstly, then in the
DeviceDemo
directory, use the following command to install pods:> pod install
Then you'll find a
DeviceDemo.xcworkspace
is generated, and CocoaPods will notify you to use this workspace instead of theDeviceDemo.xcodeproj
from now on.- In the
Open the
DeviceDemo.xcworkspace
, try to build theDeviceDemo
application target, to see if it works fine.
Import org.apache.cordova.device
Plugin Resources
Next step is to import both native and html5 resources from org.apache.cordova.device into the project.
Clone org.apache.cordova.device
> git clone https://github.com/apache/cordova-plugin-device.git
Add native part of the plugin source file in to the application
Select
DeviceDemo
project, inFile
->Add Files to "DeviceDemo"...
,add
CDVDevice.h
andCDVDevice.m
fromcordova-plugin-device/src/ios
into the project.Notice: Xcode will notify you if you need to create the bridging header, just create it.
Add HTML5 part of resources into the application
> cd DeviceDemo; mkdir -p www/plugins/org.apache.cordova.device/www/ > cd www; > cp ../../cordova-plugin-device/www/device.js \ plugins/org.apache.cordova.device/www > vim plugins/org.apache.cordova.device/www/device.js
As the
device.js
only provides the content of implementation of thedevice
object, we need to wrap it into a cordova module before importing it into the web app's context. (We will provide a script to make this step automatic.)cordova.define("org.apache.cordova.device.device", function(require, exports, module) { // The original content of device.js goes here. ... });
Create the configuration needed by Cordova Extension
We also need to add a configuration file to tell Cordova Extension how to load the Cordova Plugin. Here we simulated the way that Cordova project does, in order to provide the same behavior as the Cordova project. In
www
directory:> touch cordova_plugins.js > vim cordova_plugins.js
With the content:
cordova.define('cordova/plugin_list', function(require, exports, module) { module.exports = [ { "file": "plugins/org.apache.cordova.device/www/device.js", "id": "org.apache.cordova.device.device", "clobbers": [ "device" ] } ]; module.exports.metadata = // TOP OF METADATA { "org.apache.cordova.device": "0.2.12" } // BOTTOM OF METADATA });
Create The Web Apps
After importing the device plugin, we need to create the web application part to leverage the ability of the device plugin.
Create
index.html
inwww
directory.> touch index.html > vim index.html
With the content:
<!DOCTYPE html>   <meta charset="utf-8"/> <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0"/>  <title>Cordova device API plugin demo</title>
This is the demo page for testing org.cordova.plugin.device.

Device Properties

 Name	 Value

In this demo we will listen to the
deviceready
event and retrieve the system information from thedevice
object, and then add them into a table. Thedevice
object is provided byorg.apache.cordova.device
plugin and the system information is gathered from native side.Embed the web resources into the project
We need to add the web resources(including plugin and app resources) into the project and package as a native iOS application.
Select
DeviceDemo
project, inFile
->Add Files to "DeviceDemo"...
,Add
www
directory into the project, withCreate folder references
option selected.
Create the
manifest.plist
for the projectThe
manifest.plist
describes the extension info embedding with the application, as well as the Cordova Plugin info with it.Select
DeviceDemo
project, inFile
->New
->File
,Choose
iOS
->Resource
->Property List
, and enter the name:manifest
.
Then add:
start_url
with String type andindex.html
as value.xwalk_extensions
with Array type, and add:xwalk.cordova
as an entry.
cordova_plugins
with Array type and add an item of Dictionary type within it. In the dictionary type add:class
for key andCDVDevice
for value;name
for key andDevice
for value;
Build and run the
DeviceDemo
application target oniOS Device
to see if it works fine.Now the demo should be ready to use. That's it.
Demos
In the demos directory of ios-extension-crosswalk project, there are two demos to demonstrate the usage of Cordova plugin support. You may try them out to see how it works.

The Chamber (1996) A film review by James Berardinelli Copyright 1996 James Berardinelli
RATING (0 TO 10): 5.0 Alternative Scale: ** out of ****
United States, 1996 U.S. Release Date: 10/11/96 (wide) Running Length: 1:50 MPAA Classification: R (Profanity, mature themes, violence) Theatrical Aspect Ratio: 2.35:1
Cast: Chris O'Donnell, Gene Hackman, Faye Dunaway, Lela Rochon, Raymond Barry, Bo Jackson, Robert Prosky Director: James Foley Producers: John David, Brian Grazer, and Ron Howard Screenplay: William Goldman and Chris Reese based on the novel by John Grisham Cinematography: Ian Baker Music: Carter Burwell U.S. Distributor: Universal Pictures
1996 has seen the birth of a new motion picture sub-genre: the Death Row story. So far, the lineup goes three deep. Leading off, back in January, was Tim Robbins' searing DEAD MAN WALKING, one of the most powerful motion pictures of the year. Following came Sharon Stone in LAST DANCE, an overwrought telling of a similar tale. Now, batting third, is the weakest of the trio, THE CHAMBER, based on the novel by the only author to rival Jane Austen for recent cinematic exposure, John Grisham.
Grisham's novels all have a depressing sameness to them, and this one is no different. We have the young, good looking hero crusading for right. Whether he wins or not isn't important, only that he gives it his best shot and, in doing so, redeems himself. Along the way, there's probably a pretty (and pretty insignificant) female sidekick willing to help him out. This isn't just the plot of THE CHAMBER, it's the plot of THE FIRM and A TIME TO KILL. And, if you do a little gender-swapping, it's also the plot of THE PELICAN BRIEF. Frankly, when you get down to it, THE CLIENT isn't all that different, either.
Tom Cruise. Matthew McConaughey. Now Chris O'Donnell. These are the "Grisham men" -- the good-looking, young actors who play basically the same hero. In THE CHAMBER, his name is Adam Hall, and, as usual when it comes to Grisham, he's a lawyer -- but one with principles, of course. His role is to defend Sam Cayhall (Gene Hackman), who's been on Death Row for 16 years after being found guilty of setting a bomb that killed two children. His death warrant has just been handed down -- he has 28 days to live. Adam, having traveled from Chicago to Jackson, Mississippi to defend Sam, has that long to file the appeals and do some detective work.  So why does a young hotshot like Adam take such a hopeless case? Because Sam Cayhall is his grandfather.
As I indicated earlier, THE CHAMBER isn't so much about getting Sam off as it is about Adam exorcising his personal ghosts. The problem is, in order to get him to this point, Grisham toys with a pair of heavy issues: racism and the death penalty. And "toys" is the right word. This isn't a deep or intelligent examination of either -- it's a blatant attempt to push viewers' buttons, relying on speeches and melodrama to replace an honest, more powerful form of emoting. When someone in THE CHAMBER has something important to say, they pontificate. Too often, dialogue in this film is people talking at one another, rather than to one another.
There's an inherent danger in the way THE CHAMBER addresses its serious subject matter -- one that was apparent, but less blatant, in the most recent Grisham adaptation, A TIME TO KILL. It's all part of the Grisham formula: present facile, "tabloid" examinations of controversial issues. The danger arrives if members of the audience start mistaking Grisham's simplistic views as thoughtful presentations rather than devices to move the plot along and get us to sympathize with the protagonist.
Plot-wise, THE CHAMBER is full of seeming irrelevancies. The movie should have been streamlined better; there's no need to try to include virtually every character from the book. Some of them, like Lela Rochon's Nora Stark, could have been cut out with little loss. There are too many tangents that distract our attention from the central relationship between Adam and his soon-to-die grandfather. The only "external" character with any real importance is Adam's aunt, Lee (Faye Dunaway), who blames herself for one of her father's crimes.
 The exception is Cayhall, who we learn may not be guilty at all. Grisham allows Sam to be painted with shades of gray, and, not surprisingly, he becomes the most interesting character in the film. Of course, that could also have something to do with the passionate portrayal given by Gene Hackman, who comes across as the cream of the crop even in a John Grisham movie. Chris O'Donnell, on the other hand, is flat, and his character is dull. We're supposed to be identifying with this guy, but he fails to grab our attention, let alone our imagination.
When it comes to the actual Death Row scenes, THE CHAMBER is especially weak. Even LAST DANCE was more impressive. There's no emotional power here, and, most importantly, no catharsis. The end of DEAD MAN WALKING put everyone in the audience through an emotional and ethical ringer, and there weren't many dry eyes in the house. THE CHAMBER, on the other hand, is mechanical and artificial, and tells you what to think. If anyone was crying at my showing, they hid it well. Ultimately, of course, that's the problem with Grisham -- he presents shallow, modern-day pulp fiction, so, when he pretends to deal with serious issues, it's all a thinly-disguised masquerade.

The Legend of Zelda is a fantasy action adventure from Nintendo where you take on the role of Link, "the playable protagonist". The game was released in 1986 and has been incredibly popular since, selling millions of copies. The game is set in the fantasy world of Hyrule, which has been thrown into chaos by the antagonist of the game, Ganon, who stole a piece of the Triforce, an artefact of great power. Link must battle his way through Hyrule in order to collect the pieces of the Triforce, save the kingdom, and save the princess, Zelda by defeating Ganon.


I found this awesome piece of writing a few months ago on the website Almost No One is Evil. Almost Everything is Broken. and thought of recording a read-through. This is my first go at trying voice-overs. Hope you have fun 🙂
We will never know their names.
The first victim could not have been recorded, for there was no written language to record it. They were someone’s daughter, or son, and someone’s friend, and they were loved by those around them. And they were in pain, covered in rashes, confused, scared, not knowing why this was happening to them or what they could do about it – victim of a mad, inhuman god. There was nothing to be done – humanity was not strong enough, not aware enough, not knowledgeable enough, to fight back against a monster that could not be seen.
It was in Ancient Egypt, where it attacked slave and pharaoh alike. In Rome, it effortlessly decimated armies. It killed in Syria. It killed in Moscow. In India, five million dead. It killed a thousand Europeans every day in the 18th century. It killed more than fifty million Native Americans. From the Peloponnesian War to the Civil War, it slew more soldiers and civilians than any weapon, any soldier, any army (Not that this stopped the most foolish and empty souls from attempting to harness the demon as a weapon against their enemies).
Cultures grew and faltered, and it remained. Empires rose and fell, and it thrived. Ideologies waxed and waned, but it did not care. Kill. Maim. Spread. An ancient, mad god, hidden from view, that could not be fought, could not be confronted, could not even be comprehended. Not the only one of its kind, but the most devastating.
For a long time, there was no hope – only the bitter, hollow endurance of survivors.
In China, in the 10th century, humanity began to fight back.
It was observed that survivors of the mad god’s curse would never be touched again: they had taken a portion of that power into themselves, and were so protected from it. Not only that, but this power could be shared by consuming a remnant of the wounds. There was a price, for you could not take the god’s power without first defeating it – but a smaller battle, on humanity’s terms. By the 16th century, the technique spread, to India, across Asia, the Ottoman Empire and, in the 18th century, Europe. In 1796, a more powerful technique was discovered by Edward Jenner.
An idea began to take hold: Perhaps the ancient god could be killed.
A whisper became a voice; a voice became a call; a call became a battle cry, sweeping across villages, cities, nations. Humanity began to cooperate, spreading the protective power across the globe, dispatching masters of the craft to protect whole populations. People who had once been sworn enemies joined in common cause for this one battle. Governments mandated that all citizens protect themselves, for giving the ancient enemy a single life would put millions in danger.
 Fewer friends wept; Fewer neighbors were crippled; Fewer parents had to bury their children.
At the dawn of the 20th century, for the first time, humanity banished the enemy from entire regions of the world. Humanity faltered many times in its efforts, but there individuals who never gave up, who fought for the dream of a world where no child or loved one would ever fear the demon ever again. Viktor Zhdanov, who called for humanity to unite in a final push against the demon; The great tactician Karel Raška, who conceived of a strategy to annihilate the enemy; Donald Henderson, who led the efforts of those final days.
The enemy grew weaker. Millions became thousands, thousands became dozens. And then, when the enemy did strike, scores of humans came forth to defy it, protecting all those whom it might endanger.
The enemy’s last attack in the wild was on Ali Maow Maalin, in 1977. For months afterwards, dedicated humans swept the surrounding area, seeking out any last, desperate hiding place where the enemy might yet remain.
They found none.
35 years ago, on December 9th, 1979, humanity declared victory.
This one evil, the horror from beyond memory, the monster that took 500 million people from this world – was destroyed.
You are a member of the species that did that. Never forget what we are capable of, when we band together and declare battle on what is broken in the world.


A Constraint Satisfaction Problem (CSP) is a triplet (X, D, C) where X is a set of variables X1, ...,Xn.
D is a set of domains D1, ...,Dn, where each variable Xi is assigned with values from domain Di.
And C is a set of constraints C1(S1), ..., Cm(Sm),
where each Si is a set of variables on which Ci defines a constraint.
A state of Constraint Satisfaction Problem instance is defined by an assignment of values to some or all of its variables.
A complete assignment is a state in which every variable is assigned with a value from its domain.
A partial assignment is a state in which some variables are assigned and some are not.
A consistent assignment is a state in which the assigned variables do not violate any constraints.
A complete consistent assignment is a solution to a _Constraint Satisfaction Problem_ instance.
A constraint graph (could be a hypergraph) is a graph in which the nodes correspond to varaibles
and the edges correspond to constraints, i.e. V = X and E = C.
This website allows users to find solutions to the Pythagorean Triples proble, Magic Square Problem, and N Queens Problem.
They are represented as constraint satisfaction problems and are solved at server side.
All problems are currently solved using a Heuristic Backtracking Solver which uses the
Minimum Remaining Values, Degree, and Least Constraining Value heuristics.
Choosing different algorithms through the dropdown currently has no effect.
Further problems, solvers and features might be added later on.

java.lang.Object javax.print.attribute.EnumSyntax javax.print.attribute.standard.JobStateReason
public class JobStateReason
Class JobStateReason is a printing attribute class, an enumeration, that
provides additional information about the job's current state, i.e.,
information that augments the value of the job's JobState
attribute. Class JobStateReason defines standard job state reason values. A
Print Service implementation only needs to report those job state
reasons which are appropriate for the particular implementation; it does not
have to report every defined job state reason.
Instances of JobStateReason do not appear in a Print Job's attribute set
directly. Rather, a JobStateReasons
attribute appears
in the Print Job's attribute set. The JobStateReasons
attribute contains zero, one, or more than one JobStateReason objects which
pertain to the Print Job's status. The printer adds a JobStateReason object
to the Print Job's JobStateReasons
attribute when the
corresponding condition becomes true of the Print Job, and the printer
removes the JobStateReason object again when the corresponding condition
becomes false, regardless of whether the Print Job's overall JobState
also changed.
IPP Compatibility: The category name returned by
getName()
is the IPP attribute name. The enumeration's
integer value is the IPP enum value. The toString()
method
returns the IPP string representation of the attribute value.

Behringer’s Poly D synth could be the ‘polyphonic Minimoog’ you always wanted
by Ben RogersonBehringer’s Poly D synth could be the ‘polyphonic Minimoog’ you always wanted
OK, this is getting silly now. Behringer is launching new synths at a frankly alarming rate, and its latest - the Poly D - is potentially its most interesting yet. Essentially a 4-voice version of the company’s Model D synth, it’s akin to a polyphonic Minimoog, and explains the Warp Drive teaser from last week.
The Poly D can still be used in monophonic mode, but you can also switch to Poly mode for playing chords, or choose Unison mode to get all voices stacked.
Said to faithfully emulate the original Moog circuitry, the Poly D offers four VCOs. The first three feature triangular/saw, saw, square, wide pulse and narrow pulse waveform options, while the fourth can access triangular, reverse saw, saw, square, wide pulse and narrow pulse.
 Connectivity includes MIDI In, Out and Thru over USB and DIN and a range of control inputs and outputs.
The Poly D has a 37-note full-size keyboard, and the upper panel - which contains 84 controls - can be tilted up for even easier access.
If Behringer has got this one right, our prediction is that it’s going to fly off the shelves, but when it will be landing on said shelves - and how much it’ll cost - remains to be seen. Find out more on the Behringer website


Since this menu item is going to load a layout, it is best to start by opening or designating a window to place the contents within.
The 'pageWindow' element allows us to open a new window or load a layout into an existing window within the Technology Explorer.
A window is any tab or floating object you see with a title bar. What truly defines a window element are the controls to navigate forward and backward, and to reload the current page.
The attribute 'target' indicates which window to load the content into. There are three reserved names you should know about; '_active' will load the contents into whatever window is selected on the default stage, '_blank' will open a new window on the default stage, and '_self' will open the link in the current calling window. '_self' should not be used in menu items. If a window of the given name exists within a stage, that page will be loaded into that window; however, if the name does not exist a new window will be created.
Stages are locations that can contain windows. You can direct a page to a given stage using the attribute 'windowStage'.
Simply put, a stage is an area that can contain windows. By default there are two stages you can use; the 'defaultStage' which is the stage this tutorial is loaded into and the 'floatingStage' that contains floating windows. There is also a third stage loaded called the 'SuperStage' in which all of the Technology Explorer content is loaded into. You should NEVER send content to this stage.
As an aside there is a stage loaded in the right panel of the tutorial that is the default stage for tutorial content. A stage is also used in the bottom panel of the Ad Hoc query to display the results within.

Crystal compiler does a lot of work in order to allow the programmer be more expressive, productive, and …lazy.
Since 0.7.7 the compiler comes with some initials tools that will help the programmer know what the compiler is understanding from the code and to navigate through in a more interesting way.
Go to implementations tool
When compiling a method call, the compiler knows exactly which method definition will be called. But, when the programmer is viewing the source code, there was no way (other than string search) to reach the method definition.
Bigger the project, harder to find the definition.
So if you have program.cr with the following code:
$ crystal tool implementations --cursor program.cr:5:1 program.cr 1 implementation found /path/to/program.cr:1:1
You can pass --format json
to make a computer friendly output and build something to integrate it to you favorite text editor. This is used in then crystal-tools atom package and it just looks awesome. Every location is just clickable.
If you use Atom download them and just press ⌘⌥i
/ ctrl-alt-i
while your cursor is over the add
in line 5.
Multiple implementations
This tools does not only will be allow you avoid def foo
vs def self.foo
string matching hell, but will point which are the real candidates of a method call.
Down a macro hole
A snippet is worth a thousand words.
$ crystal tool implementations --cursor program.cr:6:6 program.cr 1 implementation found /path/to/program.cr:2:3 ~> macro property: /path/to/crystal-src/object.cr:365:5 ~> macro setter: /path/to/crystal-src/object.cr:324:9
And you know how object.cr looks like?
I love this!
Reveal context tool
Another neat tool that will help you avoid all thouse run with pp var
or pp typeof(var)
is the context tool. Just position your cursor somewhere ⌘⌥c
/ ctrl-alt-c
and you will all variables type information.
Like in the previous tool, the program itself is never executed. All the information shown cames from the same build process that generates the binary.
The tool is available in command line manner.
$ crystal tool context --cursor program.cr:3:1 program.cr 1 possible context found | Expr | Type | ----------------- | a | String | | b | Int32 |
It’s interesting thou to see all the overload a def
holds.
Final notes
Work in progress
It’s work in progress :-). We want more tools, and to make them robust enough for everyone. We think they are ready enough for you to enjoy them, and help us making them better.
Next steps
The crystal-tools atom package will probably get crystal spec
support so it will be easier to run single file/single spec from the editor.
Another desired tool is to get all caller for a given method. Kind of dual tool of implementations that will answere the question, who is using this code?
Green compile status is a requirement
Since this tools were built on top of crystal compiler, with all it’s type inference and compiler phases, if the code does not compile you won’t be able to run any tool.
Main program
All samples presented here were programs in a single file but the tools do work in larger project. For this to happen the tools need to know the main file to compile. This was the last argument of the commands. The --cursor
argument specifies where the text cursor is located in the editor.
For single file programs the main program is just it. For larger programs is not that easy. You as a developer will know which file to compile.
The crystal-tools atom package will use all the specs as main program. If this is not what you need to can change from the settings page which file to compile among other things.
… towards an event better crystal programming experience. ❤

Martin Morales combines the flavours of Peru to create a a wonderfully fresh ceviche, the perfect light starter for a dinner party.
Equipment and preparation: For this recipe you will need a blender to make the chilli paste.
For the chilli paste, heat the oil in a medium sauté pan. When hot add the chillies, onion and garlic and cook for 5-7 minutes. Leave to cool, then put in a blender and blend until smooth then set aside.
Put the sweet potato in a large pan with the orange juice, sugar and 200ml/7fl oz water and bring to the boil. Add the cloves, cinnamon and star anise and cook over a high heat for 6-8 minutes, or until just tender. Drain and run under cold water. Discard the cloves, cinnamon and star anise. Put the sweet potatoes in a bowl and set aside.
For the chilli tiger’s milk, put the ginger, garlic, coriander and lime juice in a bowl. Stir and leave to infuse for 3 minutes. Strain the mixture through a sieve into another bowl. Add the salt and chilli paste made earlier, and mix.
For the ceviche, wash the red onion and leave to soak in iced water for 5 minutes. Drain thoroughly, spread out on kitchen paper or a clean tea towel to remove any excess water and then put in the fridge until needed. This will reduce the strength of the onions and help to keep them crisp.
Put the fish in a large bowl, add a good pinch of salt and mix together gently with a metal spoon. The salt will help open the fish’s pores. Leave for 2 minutes and then pour over all of the chilli tiger’s milk and combine gently. Leave the fish to ‘cook’ in this marinade for 2 minutes.
Add the onions, coriander, chilli and sweet potato to the fish. Mix together gently and season to taste. Divide between serving bowls and serve immediately.


ARE UFO SIGHTINGS MORE PREVALENT DURING CERTAIN MONTHS OF THE YEAR?

In order to answer the question “Are UFO Sightings Reported Predominantly During Certain Months of the Year?” we used the date field from the reported sightings from our multiple sources and clustered the occurrences into a Circos Graph.
In doing so, we noticed clear indications of a clustering of sightings in the summer months (June, July and August). This, among other things, could be due to people, generally during the summer, noticing the weather more often, hiking, camping, doing more outside activities, etc.
We also found a great article that went into a similar analysis: CLICK HERE

However, Downing Street sources have said this will not happen this week and the PM is
expected to wait until the end of the month to officially notify the EU of the UK's
intention to leave, thus beginning what is expected to be a two-year process.

The asynchronous execution of a delete request requires both the DeleteRequest
instance and an ActionListener
instance to be passed to the asynchronous
method:
The asynchronous method does not block and returns immediately. Once it is
completed the ActionListener
is called back using the onResponse
method

it failed.
A typical listener for DeleteResponse
looks like:

What is data Science?
Data Science is a field of extracting valueable leads from unorganized or undigested data.
Prerequisite for Data Science?
I guess, a CS graduate or a mathematician/statistician who has worked on a lot of data modeling problems with large amounts of varied kinds of data (user-generated, machine-generated, time-variant, etc..) will qualify to be a potential data scientist.
Skills required for Data Science?
Solid knowledge of several statistical modeling and having a eye to identify which strategies relevent to a problem. Bieng able to work on big data like hadoop, hive, NoSQL databases etc. Programming language like Python Programing, R Language etc.
Worry about above skills!
In Bangalore, there are numbers of Data Science Courses available for beginners to professionals. They provide virtual to classroom training Programs.
You can also refer reference Book for Data Science.
This book is best suited for people new to R. Learning to write functions & loops empowers you to do much more in R, than just juggling with packages. People think, R packages can let them avoid writing functions & loops, but its not a sustainable approach. This book introduces you to details of R programming environment using interesting projects like weighted dice, playing cards, slot machine etc. The book language is simple to understand and examples can be reproduced easily.

Three common ways for a prospective owner to acquire a dog is from pet shops, private owners, or shelters.
A pet shop may be the most convenient way to buy a dog. Buying a dog from a private owner allows you to assess the pedigree and upbringing of your dog before choosing to take it home. Lastly, finding your dog from a shelter, helps give a good home to a dog who may not find one so readily.

Our Investments solution, mPower tackles compliance and investment restrictions, ensuring that you are up to date with growing and changing regulatory requirements. As investments are generally long-term, regulations revolve around assuring safety and reducing risk.
Automated tallying across reports & checks for unnatural spikes in values across time periods allows for reconciliation of values across related reports.
Dependence on external data is no longer a problem with the ability to obtain and seamlessly process data from multiple sources i.e., custodian (position), market info (price, corporate actions), Policy admin systems (fund inflows and outflows), credit rating agencies (ratings, benchmarks)
mPower addresses the need for multiple valuation methods. Regulatory reporting generally requires a conservative valuation approach driven more by amortized cost and other accounting data whereas, performance and peer comparison would require valuation driven more by market info.
Our solution allows for segmenting and categorizing assets in multiple ways. This could include one for accounting, one for fund managers/dealers, one per regulator and so on.

Principal Component Analysis (PCA)
While each individual's genome is unique in itself, signatures of ancestry are encoded within the genome.
We can use these patterns to infer genetic ancestry using a dimensionality reduction method known as PCA.
We will leverage data from various genetic diversity panels, such as HGDP, POPRES, and other data sources (below), which have generated genotype data from individuals around the world.
Here, we have pre-computed the principal components for these panels and we will "project" ourselves onto these datasets.
Before running PCA, we assign each a value for each locus of an individual, which is defined as the number of reference alleles at that locus, giving us a value between 0 and 2.
The output of PCA generates "loadings" for each SNP, which are essentially a multiplier factor for that SNP for that principal component (that SNP's contribution to that PC).
In this way, the principal components are a linear combination of each of the SNPs, and each of the PCs are orthogonal to each other.
We can use these loadings to compute our own position on this map by simply multiplying our value at that genotype (on the same scale, again between 0 and 2) by the loading for that SNP and summing over all SNPs.
To get started, choose a reference panel onto which to project yourself and the number of SNPs to use for the projection.
First, start with "HGDP: World" or "Hapmap: World" to explore your ancestry on a global population scale.
For more detail in a specific region, choose the reference panel from the relevant population.
If applicable, choose a level of detail for the results to be plotted.
For the POPRES dataset, to recapitulate the results of
Novembre et al.,
use PC1 vs. PC4.
Data sources:
HGDP
Hapmap
POPRES

[Gecode] Another abstraction sets...
Christian Schulte
schulte at imit.kth.se
Tue Jul 27 12:32:29 CEST 2004
One thing that occurred to me about this particular iterator is that one
could have a generic backwards iterator (using the same idea as a cache) and
specialize for rangelists to a more efficient implementation.
I intend to do the same for Minus (which actually needs to reverse as well).
Cheers

Done.
(Took a while to give up on figuring out superclass- and member element
construtor execution order and just work around the issue)
If we want to make distributor programming easy, we also need a reversed
unknown iterator (needs a reversed difference), and a forward and a
backward "nth element of an interator" operation exposed.
(we have something like the last two already but tied to rangelists
directly)

The EDA experience seems very different from the conventional types of higher learning that I'm used to. Already EDA seems very welcoming, collabrative and open, especially in the fact that you are starting to form relationships with people prior to even meeting them.
I love the restaurant / kitchen analogy that Sherif uses - I can definitely see how easy it is to be in a consumer mindset, but how switching that up to a creative frame of mind will make the whole experience that much more rewarding and enjoyable.
I'm really looking forward to pushing myself throughout this journey and stepping out of my comfort zone to see if I can "blow my own mind". The idea of everyone's experience being their own appeals to me, even though it is difficult to not compare yourself to others! Already I've found myself looking at the progress of others in my cohort and thinking "oh shit, they're way ahead of me, maybe I'm not cut out for this". A challenge for me will be to focus on my own journey, but also see this experience as something we are all in together.
My expectations of EDA are changing on the daily! And the more I find out, the more excited/shit-scared I am. But this is an adventure, so bring it on.

The variable socksParentProxy
specifies the hostname and port
number of a SOCKS parent proxy; it should have the form
‘host:port’. The variant of the SOCKS protocol being used is
defined by socksProxyType
, which can be either ‘socks4a’
or ‘socks5’; the latter value specifies “SOCKS5 with
hostnames”, and is the default.
The variable socksAuthCredentials
can be used if your SOCKS
proxy requires authentication. For SOCKS4 and 4a, it is just
a username; for SOCKS5 it is of the form ‘username:password’.
The main application of the SOCKS support is to use Tor to evade overly restrictive or misconfigured firewalls. Assuming you have a Tor client running on the local host listening on the default port (9050), the following uses Tor for all outgoing HTTP traffic:
$ polipo socksParentProxy=localhost:9050

The specifics of the regression step are left to the user to define when calling the function. The user of a function developed within the 'modelObj' framework creates as input a 'modelObj' that contains the model and the R methods to be used to obtain parameter estimates and to obtain predictions. In this way, a user can easily go from linear to non-linear models within the same package.
