Swagger is supported in almost every modern programming language and deployment environment. The idea behind swagger is to define a standard, language-agnostic interface to REST APIs .This allows both humans and computers to discover and understand the capabilities of the service without access to source code, documentation, or through network traffic inspection. Provisions for consumer interactions are easier and convenient.In short, Swagger is a formal specification surrounded by a large ecosystem of tools, which includes everything from front-end user interfaces, low-level code libraries and commercial API management solutions.

PHPUnit is a unit testing framework for the PHP programming language. It is an instance of the xUnit architecture for unit testing frameworks that originated with SUnit and became popular with JUnit. PHPUnit was created by Sebastian Bergmann and its development is hosted on GitHub. PHPUnit supports developers by analyzing their mistakes in the newly committed code and assert that no code regression has occurred in other parts of the code base. Much like other unit testing frameworks, PHPUnit uses assertions to verify that the behavior of the specific component - or "unit" - being tested behaves as expected.

Argv[1] is "Curious-George". The first thing I'd do is put each letter over its array index:
| C 0 |
u 1 |
r 2 |
i 3 |
o 4 |
u 5 |
s 6 |
- 7 |
G 8 |
e 9 |
o 10 |
r 11 |
g 12 |
e 13 |
Ok, now s and argv[1] are the same: 0xbfffedd8. V will be a pointer to the first occurrence of 'G', which is 8 characters past s: 0xbfffede0. That 'G' is turned into a 'g', and then we move v forward 5 characters to 0xbfffede5, which is a pointer to the final 'e'. That gets changed to an 'i'.
Since u was created with strdup(), it has a copy of "Curious-George", which is unaffected by v. The strstr() statement will return a pointer to the "ge" in u, which starts at the 12th character from the beginning of u. Thus, the strstr() returns 0x3000fc.
Here's the output:
UNIX> pex Curious-George Prince-George Eddie-George 0xbfffedd8 0x3000f0 argc: 4 argv[1]: 0xbfffedd8 Curious-georgi s: 0xbfffedd8 Curious-georgi u: 0x3000f0 Curious-George v: 0xbfffede5 i strstr: 0x3000fc ge |
Part 2: One problem is that argc is not checked -- if you call pex will no arguments, the strchr() statement will probably generate a seg fault or bus error.
The second problem is if argv[1] contains a 'G' within five characters of the end of the string -- then the "*v = 'i'; statement will stomp over memory that is not part of the string.
Histogram of scores for Question 1 |
List *new_list() { List *l; l = (List *) malloc(sizeof(List)); if (l == NULL) { perror("malloc"); exit(1); } l->front = NULL; l->back = NULL; l->size = 0; return l; } void list_prepend(List *l, Jval v) { Node *n; n = (Node *) malloc(sizeof(Node)); if (n == NULL) { perror("malloc"); exit(1); } n->val = v; n->link = l->front; l->front = n->link; l->size++; if (l->size == 1) l->back = n; } void free_list(List *l) { Node *n, *n2; n = l->front; while (n != NULL) { n2 = n; n = n->link; free(n2); } free(l); } |
Histogram of scores for Question 2 |
I was pretty flexible on where I took off points here -- as with free_list(), I basically took off enough points so that your score reflected how good your answer was, and tried to take them off in the parts that showed where your answer was lacking.
Histogram of scores for Question 3 |
This is a straightforward program. It reads from standard input until it reads a blank line or EOF, at which point it exits. For all the non-blank lines that it reads, it pushes the characters of the first word onto a stack, onto a queue, and to the beginning and end of a linked list. This means that when we pop the characters off the stack, we will get them in reverse order. When we dequeue them, we will get them in the proper order. And if we look at the list, it will contain the characters in reverse order followed by the characters in their proper order.
So, on the first line of standard input, the queue will hold '1', the stack will hold '1' and the list will hold '1','1'. The first line of output will be "1111".
On the second line of standard input, we will have:
|
q: F, r, e, d s: d, e, r, F l: d, e, r, F, F, r, e, d |
Therefore, line two of output is:
Fdde rerF erFr dFedOn the third line of standard input, we will have:
|
q: E, d, d, i, e s: e, i, d, d, E l: e, i, d, d, E, E, d, d, i, e |
Therefore, line three of output is:
Eeei didd ddEE iddd eEieThe program will exit on line 4.
Therefore the output is:
1111 Fdde rerF erFr dFed Eeei didd ddEE iddd eEie |
The problem came when you got caught on the fact that the program is putting characters on the various data structures, and not whole words. That led to the worst scores, but of course, that shows that you're making a fundamental mistake, as opposed to, for example, writing five lines of output rather than three, which is simply a missed detail.

Money Play. How should red play 21?
pips Red=145 White=137
(CorrectAnswer= 0/0, ErrorScore= 0)
Discounting 11/8 that does nothing to improve Red's position, the choice is between 13/11, 6/5 (14 shots) and 13/10 (7 shots).
Are the extra shots (plus the asset of owning the 11-pt) and the possibility of making the 5-pt next turn justified?
Yes but only by the smallest of margins. Note that White needs fours to hit and fours to cover his 2-pt so there is some useful duplication.
The key here is to consider both plays. If you didn't even think of slotting your 5-pt then you need to rethink your approach to such positions.

SIDEWALKS OF NEW YORK
Reviewed by Harvey Karten Paramount Classics Director: Edward Burns Writer: Edward Burns Cast: Edward Burns, Rosario, Dawson, Dennis Farina, Heather Graham, David Krumholtz, Brittany Murphy, Stanley Tucci, Michael Leydon Campbell, Nadia Dajani, Callie Thorne, Aida Turturro
There are seven million stories in New York, the world's most exciting city. The six principal ones related by the comic genius Edward Burns in "Sidewalks of New York" are not unique, not necessarily encompassing even the most dramatic or exciting of the lives of the people who inhabit Our Town. But Burns has a way of making us think they are. Maybe this talent has something to do with the subject of his movie: sex, or at least love and sex, not necessarily in that order. Maybe it has to do with the diverse mix of performers who represent characters of various ages from youthful adults to middle-aged. Most of all, I think it has to do with the nature of the their dilemma: their feeling that somehow there is a void, that life is passing them by, that while they long for stability, they may be missing some greater adventure or, that conversely, while they're seeking some greater quest, what they really lack in their lives is balance.
"Sidewalks of New York," the third film which he has written and directed and in which he has taken the principal role (he is also working now on "Ash Wednesday"), is an updated version of Max Ophuls 1950 film"La Ronde"--a witty account of various people having affairs, forming a chain that eventually comes full circle. Burns deliberately eschews the European flair, the particular sophistication of the work that perhaps inspired it, choosing instead more American urban take on this universal western theme But it may not be dismissed as mere fluff. You could well leave the theater in a somber mood, because after the laughs, the recognition that your hopes and fears are reflected in the lives of the people on the screen could lead you to reassess your own Grand Design. In that sense, "Sidewalks of New York," while less entertaining than Burns's "She's the One" (about a fella who married on impulse after discovering that his wife is cheating on him), and the director's smashing debut "The Brothers McMullen" (a compelling tale of three brothers with different personalities living under one roof), carries more gravidas.
Thoroughly character-driven and piloted by mock interviews in a faux-documentary style, "Sidewalks" deals with six New Yorkers from various walks (so to speak) of life whose lives and loves weave and twine and ultimately fall together at the bittersweet conclusion. Queens-born Tommy (played by writer-director Burns as the principal character as would Woody Allen were he to direct the film), is Mr. Outer-Borough, a guy who does not take to self- disparagement just because he did not grow up in Manhattan but instead believes that Manhattan would not exist were it not for people like him. He is living with the slick Carpo (Dennis Farina), who considers himself Tommy's mentor in love and sex, claiming 500 conquests in the past year, lessons that Tommy does not necessarily follow when flirting with sixth-grade teacher Maria (Rosario Dawson), who has been divorced for a year from Brooklyn doorman Benjamin (David Krumholtz). Perhaps the most involving of the eternal triangles exists among Griffin (Stanley Tucci), a Park Avenue dentist married to trophy wife and real-estate agent Annie (Heather Graham) but conducting an affair with Iowa-transplant Ashley (Brittany Murphy) who is twenty years his junior.
As this is Burns's most character-driven movie, you get the impression that he scours up as much chatter as would an Eric Rohmer, but there's nothing static in this fast-paced yarn. Burns's cameraman, Frank Prinzi, switches repeatedly from an unidentified interviewer who asks mighty personal questions about sex to each character to the same individuals as they actually live their love lives--a kind of show-and-tell, tell-and-show merry-go- roundelay of escapades.  If Burns is taking sides, it's generally with the women: not that he'd go along with Dr. T. that all women are saints, since after all Ashley must share the blame as a housebreaker with Griffin, and Maria must come to terms with her refusal to return Tommy's sincere calls. The film was shot in just 17 days and though they're tightly scripted, the performers with almost no exception have the proclivity to say "y'know" repeatedly, an annoying tic that Burns may have copied from one of Woody Allen's bad habits.
Men and women might both pick up a few pointers on how to flirt, whether at the video store, in a museum, in the park, in a coffee shop, even in the dentist's office. Side characters play their part to strengthen the film's vision, particularly Michael Leydon Campbell in the double role as the multi-pierced young band member Glo and a middle-aged married guy, Harry, who wants to build a log cabin in the woods (most likely to have a place to take his women rather than to read Plato under the stars).

Hey everyone, I just wanted to see how this project was coming. I heard that the beta was supposed to be out soon and I'd sure like to give it a shot. Any idea on when it'll be out and if I'd be able to get in on the action?
Apparently most of the forum is private and it doesn't look like there's any activity to me so I'm kind of in the dark here. Anyways, just wanted to see how the game was coming along, thanks.

Hi There There,
Things are coming along great. We're in a "closed" Alpha right now (I'm sure Karl will be happy to add you to the testers list), and are swift approaching the open Beta.
Sorry about the sorry state of the boards: they certainly need to be cleaned up, but we've been putting that off until Beta.

And those who want to know if the "testing" is going around alright just check it out.
Testing is going very well, Karl is doing a good job and it's safe to say that if Karl keeps it up the servers of Evidyon Beta will be flooded with Ex Xen players.
