With the following extension method you can get away without reflection:

***public static Type GetListType(this List _)
{
return typeof(T);
}***

Or more general:

***public static Type GetEnumeratedType(this IEnumerable _)
{
return typeof(T);
}***

Usage:

***List list = new List { "a", "b", "c" };
IEnumerable strings = list;
IEnumerable objects = list;

Type listType = list.GetListType(); // string
Type stringsType = strings.GetEnumeratedType(); // string
Type objectsType = objects.GetEnumeratedType(); // BEWARE: object***

To get only one value in a multi value **INSERT** from another table I did the following in SQLite3:

***INSERT INTO column_1 ( val_1, val_from_other_table )
VALUES('val_1', (SELECT val_2 FROM table_2 WHERE val_2 = something))***

Use a **case** statement:

***select id,
case report.type
when 'P' then amount
when 'N' then -amount
end as amount
from
`report`***

You need to decode the bytes object to produce a string:

***>>> b"abcde"
b'abcde'

# utf-8 is used here because it is a very common encoding, but you
# need to use the encoding your data is actually in.
>>> b"abcde".decode("utf-8")
'abcde'***

**list(newdict)** works in both Python 2 and Python 3, providing a simple list of the keys in **newdict. keys()** isn't necessary.

A simple and effective one-liner:

***function isMobile() { return ('ontouchstart' in document.documentElement); }***

However, above code doesn't take into account the case for laptops with touchscreen.

***function isMobile() {
try{ document.createEvent("TouchEvent"); return true; }
catch(e){ return false; }
}***

Ecma script 5 (ES5) which all browser support and precompiled. ES6/ES2015 and ES/2016 came this year with lots of changes so to pop up these changes there is something in between which should take cares about so TypeScript.

• TypeScript is Types -> Means we have to define datatype of each property and methods. If you know C# then Typescript is easy to understand.

• Big advantage of TypeScript is we identify Type related issues early before going to production. This allows unit tests to fail if there is any type mismatch.

You can add two properties to **Element.prototype** to get the top/left of any element.

***Object.defineProperty( Element.prototype, 'documentOffsetTop', {
get: function () {
return this.offsetTop + ( this.offsetParent ? this.offsetParent.documentOffsetTop : 0 );
}
} );

Object.defineProperty( Element.prototype, 'documentOffsetLeft', {
get: function () {
return this.offsetLeft + ( this.offsetParent ? this.offsetParent.documentOffsetLeft : 0 );
}
} );***

This is called like this:

***var x = document.getElementById( 'myDiv' ).documentOffsetLeft;***

Another way to do that through **concat**

***var arr = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7];
console.log([0].concat(arr));***

The difference between **concat** and **unshift** is that **concat** returns a new array. The performance between them could be found here.

***function fn_unshift() {
arr.unshift(0);
return arr;
}

function fn_concat_init() {
return [0].concat(arr)
}***

There's no built-in ability to **break** in **forEach**. To interrupt execution you would have to throw an exception of some sort. eg.

***var BreakException = {};

try {
[1, 2, 3].forEach(function(el) {
console.log(el);
if (el === 2) throw BreakException;
});
} catch (e) {
if (e !== BreakException) throw e;
}***

JavaScript exceptions aren't terribly pretty. A traditional for loop might be more appropriate if you really need to break inside it.

Use Array#some

***[1, 2, 3].some(function(el) {
console.log(el);
return el === 2;
});***

This works because **some** returns **true** as soon as any of the callbacks, executed in array order, return true, short-circuiting the execution of the rest.

**some**, its inverse **every** (which will stop on a **return false**), and forEach are all ECMAScript Fifth Edition methods which will need to be added to the **Array.prototype** on browsers where they're missing.

If you use foreach iterate $json_a alone, you have an object of objects. Even if you pass in true as the second parameter, you have a two-dimensional array. If you're looping through the first dimension you can't just echo the second dimension like that. So this is wrong:

***foreach ($json_a as $k => $v) {
echo $k, ' : ', $v;
}***

To echo the statuses of each person, try this:

***
$string = file_get_contents("/home/michael/test.json");
if ($string === false) {
// deal with error...
}

$json_a = json_decode($string, true);
if ($json_a === null) {
// deal with error...
}

foreach ($json_a as $person_name => $person_a) {
echo $person_a['status'];
}

JSON.stringify()

JSON.stringify() serializes a JS object or value into a JSON string.

***JSON.stringify({}); // '{}'
JSON.stringify(true); // 'true'
JSON.stringify('foo'); // '"foo"'
JSON.stringify([1, 'false', false]); // '[1,"false",false]'
JSON.stringify({ x: 5 }); // '{"x":5}'

JSON.stringify(new Date(2006, 0, 2, 15, 4, 5))
// '"2006-01-02T15:04:05.000Z"'

JSON.stringify({ x: 5, y: 6 });
// '{"x":5,"y":6}' or '{"y":6,"x":5}'
JSON.stringify([new Number(1), new String('false'), new Boolean(false)]);
// '[1,"false",false]'
JSON.parse()***

The JSON.parse() method parses a string as JSON, optionally transforming the value produced.

***JSON.parse('{}'); // {}
JSON.parse('true'); // true
JSON.parse('"foo"'); // "foo"
JSON.parse('[1, 5, "false"]'); // [1, 5, "false"]
JSON.parse('null'); // null***
