This example demonstrates about How do I display the current date and time in an Android application
Step 1 − Create a new project in Android Studio, go to File ⇒ New Project and fill all required details to create a new project.
Step 2 − Add the following code to res/layout/activity_main.xml.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
tools:context=".MainActivity">
<TextView
android:id="@+id/tvDateTime"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_centerInParent="true"
android:layout_margin="16dp"
android:gravity="center"
android:padding="16dp"
android:textSize="24sp" />
</RelativeLayout>
Step 3 − Add the following code to src/MainActivity.java
package app.com.sample;
import androidx.appcompat.app.AppCompatActivity;

import android.widget.TextView;
import java.text.DateFormat;
import java.util.Date;
public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
TextView tvDateTime = findViewById(R.id.tvDateTime);
String currentDateTimeString = DateFormat.getDateTimeInstance().format(new Date());
tvDateTime.setText(currentDateTimeString);
}
}
Step 4 − Add the following code to androidManifest.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" package="app.com.sample">
<application
android:allowBackup="true"

The easiest way to get started with Kotlin, is to use an IDE.
An IDE (Integrated Development Environment) is used to edit and compile code.
In this chapter, we will use IntelliJ (developed by the same people that created Kotlin) which is free to download from https://www.jetbrains.com/idea/download/.
Once IntelliJ is downloaded and installed, click on the
New Project button to get started with IntelliJ:
Then click on "Kotlin" in the left side menu, and enter a name for your project:
Next, we need to install something called JDK (Java Development Kit) to get
our Kotlin project up and going. Click on the "Project JDK" menu, select "Download JDK" and select a version and vendor (e.g. AdoptOpenJDK 11)
and click on the "Download" button:
When the JDK is downloaded and installed, choose it from the select menu and
then click on the "Next" button and at last "Finish":
Now we can start working with our Kotlin project. Do not worry about all of the different buttons and functions in
IntelliJ. For now, just open the src (source) folder, and follow the same steps as in the image below, to create a kotlin file:
Select the "File" option and add a name to your Kotlin file, for example "Main":
You have now created your first Kotlin file (Main.kt). Let's add some Kotlin code to it, and run the program to see how it works. Inside the Main.kt file, add the following code:
Main.kt
fun main() {
println("Hello World")
}
Don't worry if you don't understand the code above - we will discuss it in detail in later chapters. For now, lets focus on how to run the code. Click on the Run button
at the top navigation bar, then click "Run", and select "Mainkt".
Next, IntelliJ will build your project, and run the Kotlin file. The output
will look something like this:
As you can see, the output of the code was "Hello World", meaning that you have now written and executed your first Kotlin program!
When learning Kotlin at w3schools.com, you can use our "Try it Yourself" tool, which shows both the code and the result. This will make it easier for
you to understand every part as we move forward:
Code:
fun main() {
println("Hello World")
}
Result:

The java.time.LocalDate.atTime(OffsetTime time) method combines this date with an offset time to create an OffsetDateTime.
Following is the declaration for java.time.LocalDate.atTime(OffsetTime time) method.
public OffsetDateTime atTime(OffsetTime time)
time − the time to combine with, not null.
the offset date-time formed from this date and the specified time, not null.
The following example shows the usage of java.time.LocalDate.atTime(OffsetTime time) method.
package com.tutorialspoint;
import java.time.LocalDate;
import java.time.OffsetDateTime;
import java.time.OffsetTime;
public class LocalDateDemo {
public static void main(String[] args) {
LocalDate date = LocalDate.parse("2017-02-03");
System.out.println(date);
OffsetTime time = OffsetTime.now();
OffsetDateTime date1 = date.atTime(time);
System.out.println(date1);
}
}
Let us compile and run the above program, this will produce the following result −
2017-02-03

We can configure Vim to use it as an IDE. In this section, we will discuss following items
Syntax highlighting
Smart indentation
Bounce
Execute shell commands
Configuring ctags and csope
Auto-completion and auto-suggestion
Syntax highlighting is one of the important features of IDE. To enable syntax highlighting use −
:syntax on
For instance, below image show syntax highlighting for C code −
To disable syntax highlighting use −
:syntax off
When syntax highlighting is disabled, it will show following output −
To perform auto and smart indentation use following commands −
: set autoindent
: set smartindent
In addition to this you can use below command to auto-indent C code −
: set cindent
If you are using programming language which uses curly braces to combine multiple statements then % key will be your friend. This key will jump between start and end of curly braces quickly.
For instance, you are at line 11 and execute % command then it will move cursor the line 4. Below image shows this −
To execute single command from Vim editor user −
:!<command>
For instance, to execute pwd command use following syntax −
:!pwd
However, if you want to multiple shell commands then execute following command −
:shell
Above command will give you terminal access, where you can execute multiple commands. Once you are done with it, just type exit command which will return back to Vim session.
Combination of ctags and csope provides many useful features like go to function definition, go to function declaration, find function calls, search file, and many more. Perform below steps to configure these tool −
Generate tags using following command −
$ ctags <file>
This command will generate new file namely tags
Provide tag file to vim using following command −
:set tags = tag
Now move your cursor under function name and press Ctrl + ] to go to function definition.
Use Ctrl + t to come back to previous position.
To install and configure cscope perform following steps −
Install cscope
$ sudo apt-get install cscope
Generate ctags and launch main window
$ cscope –R
User Ctrl + d to close cscope window
We can use following commands for auto-completion −
Word completion
Line completion
File name completion
Note that we have to use these commands in insert mode.

] | C# | Char.ToString() Method - GeeksforGeeks |
Undoubtedly, Natural Language Processing (NLP) research has taken enormous leaps after being relatively stationary for a couple of years. Firstly, Google’s Bidirectional Encoder Representations from Transformer (BERT) [1] becoming the highlight by the end of 2018 for achieving state-of-the-art performance in many NLP tasks and not much later, OpenAI’s GPT-2 stealing the thunder by promising even more astonishing results which reportedly rendering it too dangerous to publish! Considering the time frame and the players behind these publications, it takes no effort to realize that there is a lot of activity in the space at the moment.
That being said, we will focus on BERT for this post and attempt to have a small piece of this pie by extracting pre-trained contextualized word embeddings like ELMo [3].
To give you a brief outline, I will first give a little bit of background context, then a take a high-level overview of BERT’s architecture, and lastly jump into the code while explaining some tricky parts here and there.
Just for more convenience, I will be using Google’s Colab for the coding but the same code can as well run on your local environment without many modifications.
If you came just for the coding part, skip to the “BERT Word Embedding Extraction” section. Find the finished notebook code here.
To start off, embeddings are simply (moderately) low dimensional representations of a point in a higher dimensional vector space. In the same manner, word embeddings are dense vector representations of words in lower dimensional space. The first, word embedding model utilizing neural networks was published in 2013 [4] by research at Google. Since then, word embeddings are encountered in almost every NLP model used in practice today. Of course, the reason for such mass adoption is quite frankly their effectiveness. By translating a word to an embedding it becomes possible to model the semantic importance of a word in a numeric form and thus perform mathematical operations on it. To make this more clear I will give you the most common example that you can find in the context of word embeddings
When this was first possible by the word2vec model it was an amazing breakthrough. From there, many more advanced models surfaced which not only captured a static semantic meaning but also a contextualized meaning. For instance, consider the two sentences below:
I like apples.
I like Apple macbooks
Note that the word apple has a different semantic meaning in each sentence. Now with a contextualized language model, the embedding of the word apple would have a different vector representation which makes it even more powerful for NLP tasks.
However, I will leave the details of how that works, out of the scope of this post just to keep it short and on point.
To be frank, much of the progress in the NLP space can be attributed to the advancements of general deep learning research. More particularly, Google (again!) presented a novel neural network architecture called a transformer in a seminal paper [5] which had many benefits over the conventional sequential models (LSTM, RNN, GRU etc). Advantages included but were not limited to, the more effective modeling of long term dependencies among tokens in a temporal sequence, and the more efficient training of the model in general by eliminating the sequential dependency on previous tokens.
In a nutshell, a transformer is an encoder-decoder architecture model which uses attention mechanisms to forward a more complete picture of the whole sequence to the decoder at once rather than sequentially as illustrated in the figures below.
Again, I won’t be describing details about how attention works as it will make the topic way more confusing and harder to digest. Feel free to follow the relevant paper in the references.
OpenAI’s GPT was the first to create a transformer based language model with fine tuning but to be more precise, it was only using the decoder of the transformer. Therefore, making the language modeling uni-directional. The technical reason for dropping out the encoder was that language modeling would become a trivial task as the word to be predicted could have ultimately seen itself.
By now, the name of the model should probably make more sense and give you a rough idea of what it is. BERT brought everything together to build a bidirectional transformer-based language model using encoders rather than decoders! To overcome the “see itself” issue, the guys at Google had an ingenious idea. They employed masked language modeling. In other words, they hid 15% of the words and used their position information to infer them. Finally, they also mixed it up a little bit to make the learning process more effective.
Although this methodology had a negative impact on convergence time, it outperformed state-of-the-art models even before convergence which sealed the success of the model.
Normally, BERT represents a general language modeling which supports transfer learning and fine-tuning on specific tasks, however, in this post we will only touch the feature extraction side of BERT by just obtaining ELMo-like word embeddings from it, using Keras and TensorFlow.
But hold your horses! Before we jump into the code let’s explore BERT’s architecture really quick so that we have a bit of background at implementation time. Believe me, it will make things a lot easier to understand.
In fact, BERT developers created two main models:
The BASE: Number of transformer blocks (L): 12, Hidden layer size (H): 768 and Attention heads(A): 12The LARGE: Number of transformer blocks (L): 24, Hidden layer size (H): 1024 and Attention heads(A): 16
The BASE: Number of transformer blocks (L): 12, Hidden layer size (H): 768 and Attention heads(A): 12
The LARGE: Number of transformer blocks (L): 24, Hidden layer size (H): 1024 and Attention heads(A): 16
In this post, I will be using the BASE model as it is more than enough ( and way smaller!).
From a very high-level perspective, BERT’s architecture looks like this:
It may seem simple but remember that each encoder block encapsulates a more sophisticated model architecture.
At this point, to make things clearer it is important to understand the special tokens that BERT authors used for fine-tuning and specific task training. These are the following:
[CLS] : The first token of every sequence. A classification token which is normally used in conjunction with a softmax layer for classification tasks. For anything else, it can be safely ignored.[SEP] : A sequence delimiter token which was used at pre-training for sequence-pair tasks (i.e. Next sentence prediction). Must be used when sequence pair tasks are required. When a single sequence is used it is just appended at the end.[MASK] : Token used for masked words. Only used for pre-training.
[CLS] : The first token of every sequence. A classification token which is normally used in conjunction with a softmax layer for classification tasks. For anything else, it can be safely ignored.
[SEP] : A sequence delimiter token which was used at pre-training for sequence-pair tasks (i.e. Next sentence prediction). Must be used when sequence pair tasks are required. When a single sequence is used it is just appended at the end.
[MASK] : Token used for masked words. Only used for pre-training.
Moving on, the input format that BERT expects is illustrated below:
As such, any input to be used with BERT must be formatted to match the above.
The input layer is simply the vector of the sequence tokens along with the special tokens. The “##ing” token in the example above may raise some eyebrows so to clarify, BERT utilizes WordPiece [6] for tokenization which in effect, splits token like “playing” to “play” and “##ing”. This is mainly to cover a wider spectrum of Out-Of-Vocabulary (OOV) words.
Token embeddings are the vocabulary IDs for each of the tokens.
Sentence Embeddings is just a numeric class to distinguish between sentence A and B.
And lastly, Transformer positional embeddings indicate the position of each word in the sequence. More details on this one can be found in [5].
Finally, there is one last thing. Everything is great is sofar, but how can I get word embeddings from this?!? As discussed, BERT base model uses 12 layers of transformer encoders, each output per token from each layer of these can be used as a word embedding! You probably wonder, which one is the best though? Well, I guess this depends on the task but empirically, the authors identified that one of the best performing choices was to sum the last 4 layers, which is what we will be doing.
As illustrated the best performing option is to concatenate the last 4 layers but in this post, the summing approach is used for convenience. More particularly, the performance difference is not that much, and also there is more flexibility for truncating the dimensions further, without losing much information.
Enough with the theory. Let’s move on to the practice.
Firstly, create a new Google Colab notebook. Go to Edit->Notebook Settings and make sure hardware accelerator is set to TPU.
Now, the first task is to clone the official BERT repository, add its directory to the path and import the appropriate modules from there.
!rm -rf bert!git clone https://github.com/google-research/bertimport syssys.path.append('bert/')from __future__ import absolute_importfrom __future__ import divisionfrom __future__ import print_functionimport codecsimport collectionsimport jsonimport reimport osimport pprintimport numpy as npimport tensorflow as tfimport modelingimport tokenization
The two modules imported from BERT are modeling and tokenization. Modeling includes the BERT model implementation and tokenization is obviously for tokenizing the sequences.
Adding to this, we fetch our TPU address from colab and initialize a new tensorflow session. (Note that this only applies for Colab. When running locally, it is not needed). If you see any errors on when running the block below make sure you are using a TPU as hardware accelerator (see above)
Moving on, we select which BERT model we want to use.
As you can see there are three available models that we can choose, but in reality, there are even more pre-trained models available for download in the official BERT GitHub repository. Those are just the models that have already been downloaded and hosted by Google in an open bucket so that can be accessed from Colaboratory. (For local use you need to download and extract a pre-trained model).
Recall the parameters from before: 12 L (transformer blocks) 768 H (hidden layer size) 12 A (attention heads) . “Uncased” is just for lowercase sequences. In this example, we will use the uncased BERT BASE model.
Furthermore, we define some global parameters for the model:
Most of the parameters above are pretty self-explanatory. In my opinion, the only one that may be a little bit tricky is the LAYERS array. Recall that we are using on the last 4 layers from the 12 hidden encoders. Hence, LAYERS keeps their indices.
The next part is solely to define wrapper classes for the input before processing and after processing (Features).
In the InputExample class, we have set text_b to None by default since we aim to use single sequences rather than a sequence-pairs.
Moreover, the InputFeatures class encapsulates the features that BERT needs for input (See input diagram above). The tokens property is clearly a vector of input tokens, input_ids are the ids that correspond to the token from the vocabulary, input_mask annotates real token sequence from padding and lastly, input_type_ids separates segment A from segment B so it is not really relevant here.
Now, add the following code:
This is to set up our Estimator. An Estimator is just an abstraction for a model that tensorflow provides along with an API for training, evaluation, and prediction. Our custom estimator is, therefore, a wrapper around the BertModel. Admittedly there are parts of the code that can be removed from the above but I am sticking to the example that Google provided just for consistency. The important parts there is line 60 — where the bert model is defined — , and line 100 where the predictions from the top 4 layers are extracted.
Continue along by also adding the following:
This is the function that takes care of the input processing. In other words, it transforms InputExamples to InputFeatures.
Adding to these, we create a function for converting a normal string sequence to InputExample:
Now for the last bit of the code, we define a function which accepts an array of strings as a parameter and the desired dimension (max 768) of the embedding output and returns a dictionary with the token as key and the embedding vector as value.
The above code snippet simply builds the estimator and invokes a prediction based on the given inputs.
Let’s go ahead and test our model by running this:
embeddings = get_features([“This is a test sentence”], dim=50)print(embeddings)
If everything goes well, you will have a dictionary containing the embeddings of size 50 per token. Remember that these are contextualized embeddings, so if you have duplicate tokens on different sequences only the embedding of the last token will be kept in the dictionary. To keep both, replace the dictionary with a different data structure.
You can find the complete notebook here.
Now, these embeddings can be used as input features for other models built for custom tasks. Nevertheless, I will save that for another post. Or even maybe implement a BERT Keras Layer for seamless embedding integration.
That’s all from me folks. I hope you enjoyed the post and hopefully got a clearer picture around BERT. Feel free to post your feedback or questions in the comments section.

In the same manner, word embeddings are dense vector representations of words in lower dimensional space. The first, word embedding model utilizing neural networks was published in 2013 [4] by research at Google. Since then, word embeddings are encountered in almost every NLP model used in practice today. Of course, the reason for such mass adoption is quite frankly their effectiveness. By translating a word to an embedding it becomes possible to model the semantic importance of a word in a numeric form and thus perform mathematical operations on it. To make this more clear I will give you the most common example that you can find in the context of word embeddings"

In other words, they hid 15% of the words and used their position information to infer them. Finally, they also mixed it up a little bit to make the learning process more effective."

] | NLP: Contextualized word embeddings from BERT | by Andreas Pogiatzis | Towards Data Science |
01 May, 2020
In this article, we will create a simple Writer-Reader application, which uses two threads, one for Writing into the file and another for Reading from the file. Here we will discuss the approach using Win32 Threads in C/C++. A windows thread can be created using the CreateThread() method.
Approach:
Create a Thread function for Reading data from the file// Thread function used to Read data from the fileDWORD WINAPI ReadFromAFile(PVOID lpParam){ // Create a buffer char buffer[1024] = { 0 }; // Creating ifstream object ifstream fileReader; // Opening the file in read mode fileReader.open("sample.txt"); // Reading the data into the buffer cout << "Reading data from the file:"; // Printing the data onto the console cout << buffer << endl; // Closing the opened file fileReader.close(); return 1;}Create a Thread function for Writing data into the file// Thread function used to Write data into the fileDWORD WINAPI WriteIntoAFile(PVOID lpParam){ // Create a buffer char buffer[1024] = { 0 }; // Creating ofstream object ofstream fileWriter; // Opening the file in write mode fileWriter.open("sample.txt"); cout << "Enter data to write into the file:"; // Write the given input into the file fileWriter << buffer << endl; // Closing the opened file fileWriter.close(); return 1;}Create two threads using CreateThread function for both Writing and Reading data from the fileUse WaitForSingleObject to wait until the specified object is in the signaled state or time out interval elapses.
Create a Thread function for Reading data from the file// Thread function used to Read data from the fileDWORD WINAPI ReadFromAFile(PVOID lpParam){ // Create a buffer char buffer[1024] = { 0 }; // Creating ifstream object ifstream fileReader; // Opening the file in read mode fileReader.open("sample.txt"); // Reading the data into the buffer cout << "Reading data from the file:"; // Printing the data onto the console cout << buffer << endl; // Closing the opened file fileReader.close(); return 1;}
// Thread function used to Read data from the fileDWORD WINAPI ReadFromAFile(PVOID lpParam){ // Create a buffer char buffer[1024] = { 0 }; // Creating ifstream object ifstream fileReader; // Opening the file in read mode fileReader.open("sample.txt"); // Reading the data into the buffer cout << "Reading data from the file:"; // Printing the data onto the console cout << buffer << endl; // Closing the opened file fileReader.close(); return 1;}
Create a Thread function for Writing data into the file// Thread function used to Write data into the fileDWORD WINAPI WriteIntoAFile(PVOID lpParam){ // Create a buffer char buffer[1024] = { 0 }; // Creating ofstream object ofstream fileWriter; // Opening the file in write mode fileWriter.open("sample.txt"); cout << "Enter data to write into the file:"; // Write the given input into the file fileWriter << buffer << endl; // Closing the opened file fileWriter.close(); return 1;}
// Thread function used to Write data into the fileDWORD WINAPI WriteIntoAFile(PVOID lpParam){ // Create a buffer char buffer[1024] = { 0 }; // Creating ofstream object ofstream fileWriter; // Opening the file in write mode fileWriter.open("sample.txt"); cout << "Enter data to write into the file:"; // Write the given input into the file fileWriter << buffer << endl; // Closing the opened file fileWriter.close(); return 1;}
Create two threads using CreateThread function for both Writing and Reading data from the file
Use WaitForSingleObject to wait until the specified object is in the signaled state or time out interval elapses.
Below is the implementation of the above program:
// C++ program for File Writer-Reader// application using Windows Threads #include <fstream>#include <iostream>#include <string.h>#include <winsock2.h> using namespace std; // Thread function used to Read data from the fileDWORD WINAPI ReadFromAFile(PVOID lpParam){ // Create a buffer char buffer[1024] = { 0 }; // Creating ifstream object ifstream fileReader; // Opening the file in read mode fileReader.open("sample.txt"); // Reading the data into the buffer cout << "Reading data from the file:" << endl; fileReader >> buffer; // Printing the data onto the console cout << buffer << endl; // Closing the opened file fileReader.close(); return 1;} // Thread function used to Write data into the fileDWORD WINAPI WriteIntoAFile(PVOID lpParam){ // Create a buffer char buffer[1024] = { 0 }; // Creating ofstream object ofstream fileWriter; // Opening the file in write mode fileWriter.open("sample.txt"); cout << "Enter data to write " << "into the file:" << endl; cin >> buffer; // Write the given input into the file fileWriter << buffer << endl; // Closing the opened file fileWriter.close(); return 1;} // Driver codeint main(){ WSADATA WSAData; char buffer[1024]; DWORD tid; ofstream fileWriter; ifstream fileReader; HANDLE t1, t2; int choice, flag = 1; while (flag) { cout << "================================" << "========================" << "==================" << endl; cout << "Select your option" << "\t1.Run the application " << "\t2.Exit" << endl; cin >> choice; switch (choice) { case 1: // Create the first thread for Writing t1 = CreateThread(NULL, 0, WriteIntoAFile, &fileWriter, 0, &tid); WaitForSingleObject(t1, INFINITE); // Create the second thread for Reading t2 = CreateThread(NULL, 0, ReadFromAFile, &fileReader, 0, &tid); WaitForSingleObject(t2, INFINITE); break; case 2: // Exiting the application cout << "Thank you for using" << " the application" << endl; flag = 0; break; default: // For any query other than 1 and 2 cout << "Enter a valid query!!" << endl; } } return 0;}
Run the application in the cmd using the command:
g++ MultiThreading.cpp -lws2_32

Whenever we are working with formulas there may be a need of writing the given formula in a given format which may require subscripts or superscripts. There are several methods available to print subscripts and superscripts in Python. We will be discussing two of them below –
Using maketrans() and translate() :
We can make two strings one for the normal characters and the other for the subscript/superscript characters. After this, we can use the maketrans() method which returns a mapping that can be used with the translate() method to replace the specified characters. It can be implemented for superscripts as
Python3
# function to convert to superscriptdef get_super(x): normal = "ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZabcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz0123456789+-=()" super_s = "ABcDEfGHIJKLMNOPQRsTUVWxyzabcdefghɪjklmnop۹rstuvwxyz0123456789+−=()" res = x.maketrans(''.join(normal), ''.join(super_s)) return x.translate(res) # display supersciptprint(get_super('GeeksforGeeks')) #GeeksforGeeks
Output:
GeeksforGeeks
And for subscripts, we can implement it as
Python3
# function to convert to subscriptdef get_sub(x): normal = "ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZabcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz0123456789+-=()" sub_s = "a8CDeբGhijklmnopQrstuvwxγZa♭꜀ᑯeբ9hijklmnop૧rstuvwxγ20123456789+−=()" res = x.maketrans(''.join(normal), ''.join(sub_s)) return x.translate(res) # display subscriptprint('H{}SO{}'.format(get_sub('2'),get_sub('4'))) #H2SO4
Output:
H2SO4
Using Unicode subscripts and superscripts:
The following table gives the subscripts and superscripts of the Unicode characters:
With the help of the Unicode character, we can implement this in our codes as –
Python3
# subscriptprint(u'H\u2082SO\u2084') # H2SO4 # superscriptprint("x\u00b2 + y\u00b2 = 2") # x2 + y2 = 2
Output:
H2SO4
x2 + y2 = 2

Theory of Computation
In this article, you will learn how to display the PDF file on a webpage using PHP.
PDF is one of the most trusted document format. PHP provides simple functionality to embed PDF files. It has a very simple implementation. Here, we have mentioned two ways to display PDF in a web page. It demands on how you want to show. If you want to include PDF as a sub part of a web page, then display them in an iframe as we mentioned in method1. If you want to make the PDF as a whole web content, then use the header() function as we mentioned in method2.
Suppose we have a 'infopdf' TABLE in the Database as follows. You can use your existing database or copy and paste this in MySQL.
CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS `infopdf` (
`fileid` int(11) NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,
`filename` varchar(150) NOT NULL,
`directory` varchar(150) NOT NULL,
`created_date` date NOT NULL,
PRIMARY KEY (`fileid`)
)
INSERT INTO `infopdf` (`fileid`, `filename`, `directory`, `created_date`) VALUES
(1, 'etp.pdf', '/document/', '2019-07-12');
Now, create a PHP file 'index.php' and write the database connection code at the top. For this, we are using Object Oriented PHP MySQLi connection code. Then, fetch the pdf file name and directory using select statement. To embed the PDF in a web page, we use the iframe element.
<?php
// Database Connection
$conn = new mysqli('hostname', 'username', 'password', 'database');
//Check for connection error
$select = "SELECT * FROM `infopdf`";
$result = $conn->query($select);
while($row = $result->fetch_object()){
$pdf = $row->filename;
$path = $row->directory;
$date = $row->created_date;
}
echo '<h1>Here is the information PDF</h1>';
echo '<strong>Created Date : </strong>'.$date;
echo '<strong>File Name : </strong>'.$pdf;
?>
<br/><br/>
<iframe src="<?php echo $path.$pdf; ?>" width="90%" height="500px">
</iframe>
Here is the PDF file displayed on the webpage that is fetched from the MySQL database table using the PHP code:
In the above method, we have embedded PDF in an iframe. This is basically used when we have to show a pdf in addition to the web contents. But if you want to display PDF as the whole content of webpage, then it's better to use header() function. In this below example, we have added header() function and set the file 'Content-type', 'Content-Disposition', 'Content-Transfer-Encoding'. We have used PHP predefined readfile() function to read the file and added error control operator (@) in front of it. When this operator pretended to an expression, any error or warning might be generated by this expression will be ignored.
<?php
// Database Connection
$conn = new mysqli('hostname', 'username', 'password', 'database');
//Check for connection error
$select = "SELECT * FROM `infopdf`";
$result = $conn->query($select);
while($row = $result->fetch_object()){
$pdf = $row->filename;
$path = $row->directory;
$date = $row->created_date;
$file = $path.$pdf;
}
// Add header to load pdf file
header('Content-type: application/pdf');
header('Content-Disposition: inline; filename="' .$file. '"');
header('Content-Transfer-Encoding: binary');
header('Accept-Ranges: bytes');
@readfile($file);
?>
Here is the PDF file displayed on the webpage that is fetched from the MySQL database table using the PHP code:

This chapter describes backup and restore methods of database.
Backup and recovery methods are designed to keep our information safe. In Command Line Interface (CLI) or Graphical User Interface (GUI) using backup and recovery utilities you can take backup or restore the data of databases in DB2 UDB.
Log files consist of error logs, which are used to recover from application errors. The logs keep the record of changes in the database. There are two types of logging as described below:
It is a method where the old transaction logs are overwritten when there is a need to allocate a new transaction log file, thus erasing the sequences of log files and reusing them. You are permitted to take only full back-up in offline mode. i.e., the database must be offline to take the full backup.
This mode supports for Online Backup and database recovery using log files called roll forward recovery. The mode of backup can be changed from circular to archive by setting logretain or userexit to ON. For archive logging, backup setting database require a directory that is writable for DB2 process.
Using Backup command you can take copy of entire database. This backup copy includes database system files, data files, log files, control information and so on.
You can take backup while working offline as well as online.
Syntax: [To list the active applications/databases]
db2 list application
Output:
Auth Id Application Appl. Application Id
DB # of
Name Handle
Name Agents
-------- -------------- ---------- ---------------------
----------------------------------------- -------- -----
DB2INST1 db2bp 39
*LOCAL.db2inst1.140722043938
ONE 1
Syntax: [To force application using app. Handled id]
db2 "force application (39)"
Output:
DB20000I The FORCE APPLICATION command completed
successfully.
DB21024I This command is asynchronous and may not
be effective immediately.
Syntax: [To terminate Database Connection]
db2 terminate
Syntax: [To deactivate Database]
db2 deactivate database one
Syntax: [To take the backup file]
db2 backup database <db_name> to <location>
Example:
db2 backup database one to /home/db2inst1/
Output:
Backup successful. The timestamp for this backup image is :
20140722105345
To start, you need to change the mode from Circular logging to Archive Logging.
Syntax: [To check if the database is using circular or archive logging]
db2 get db cfg for one | grep LOGARCH
Output:
First log archive method (LOGARCHMETH1) = OFF
Archive compression for logarchmeth1 (LOGARCHCOMPR1) = OFF
Options for logarchmeth1 (LOGARCHOPT1) =
Second log archive method (LOGARCHMETH2) = OFF
Archive compression for logarchmeth2 (LOGARCHCOMPR2) = OFF
Options for logarchmeth2 (LOGARCHOPT2) =
In the above output, the highlighted values are [logarchmeth1 and logarchmeth2] in off mode, which implies that the current database in “CIRCULLAR LOGGING” mode. If you need to work with ‘ARCHIVE LOGGING’ mode, you need to change or add path in the variables logarchmeth1 and logarchmeth2 present in the configuration file.
Syntax: [To make directories]
mkdir backup
mkdir backup/ArchiveDest
Syntax: [To provide user permissions for folder]
chown db2inst1:db2iadm1 backup/ArchiveDest
Syntax: [To update configuration LOGARCHMETH1]
db2 update database configuration for one using LOGARCHMETH1
'DISK:/home/db2inst1/backup/ArchiveDest'
You can take offline backup for safety, activate the database and connect to it.
Syntax: [To take online backup]
db2 backup database one online to
/home/db2inst1/onlinebackup/ compress include logs
Output:
db2 backup database one online to
/home/db2inst1/onlinebackup/ compress include logs
Verify Backup file using following command:
Syntax:
db2ckbkp <location/backup file>
Example:
db2ckbkp
/home/db2inst1/ONE.0.db2inst1.DBPART000.20140722112743.001
Listing the history of backup files
Syntax:
db2 list history backup all for one
Output:
List History File for one

] | DB2 - Backup and Recovery |
Data cleaning is one of the most time-consuming stages of the Data Analysis process. Many of its steps include acquainting the dataset, search of the missing values, their imputation or removing, and possibly a lot of repetitions of the same code lines but for different variables or their combinations. So, we have to search and accept any possibilities to speed the process up.
Some time ago I have presented the article about short Python idioms for missing values in datasets. Today I have prepared the compilation of similar scripts but in R language. Also, we will work again with the wines reviews dataset from Kaggle.
Yes, vectors in R start with 1, but before handling missing values we should have a dataset with missing values. Sometimes empty records are filled with substitutional strings like spaces (“ “), “empty”, “nan”, or some garbage. To start the work we should substitute them with “real” NA values. Lucky for us, we can do it at the stage of dataset opening:
wine_data <- read.csv(‘winemag-data-130k-v2.csv’, na.string = c(‘’, ‘i’, ‘P’))
na.string accepts a vector of substitutional values.
In the beginning, we need to check the presence of missing values. We have is.na() for these purposes. It receives data and returns a boolean vector.
Check if a single value missing:is.na(wine_data$region_1[2])
Get rows with missing elements in some columns:wine_data[is.na(wine_data$country),]
Check if there are NO missing values in a column:all(!is.na(wine_data$points))
Check if there is ANY missing value in a column:any(is.na(wine_data$country))
Previous scripts require some knowledge about the dataset and access to separate elements. But what if we want to see the whole picture? The answer is na.fail() function. It throws an exception if there is any missing value in whole data:
na.fail(wine_data)
There is a special function, which replaces a bunch of filters and indexes. It is mostly used with data frames and may be used to show all the rows with any missing value (in any column): complete.cases(). It returns a boolean vector and is very convenient for indexing.
Get the number of rows with missing datasum(!complete.cases(wine_data))
Get THE rows with missing datawine_data[!complete.cases(wine_data), ]
All previous scripts are mostly used for exploratory tasks: to show, to acquire, etc.. But what if we need to get the indexes of missing values? In this case, we should use which() function:
which(is.na(wine_data$country))#returns indexes of rows with missing data
It seems, that the only purpose of NA values existence is to be removed. Though, we may use them in some very interesting combinations. For example, we have a vector of mixed data:
test_vec <- c( 'ten', '5', 'n', '25', '10')
And we want to separate “convertible” strings (like ‘5’ or ‘25’) from the others. We can do it together with is.na() function:
test_vec[!is.na(as.numeric(test_vec))]# returns ( '5', '25', '10' )
NAs presence has some side effects — it turns the resulting value of almost any operation into NA. But there is a solution — a lot of R functions have built-in na.rm argument, which allows skipping missing values.
mean(wine_data$price)# returns NAmean(wine_data$price, na.rm = T)# returns the result
You can take a look at the previous scripts and think, that omitting of missing values is a very tedious job. Well, yes, it is. But in case if need to remove all NA at once and forget them as a nightmare — R has the next functions for us:
wine_data_totally_cleared_1 <- na.omit(wine_data)wine_data_totally_cleared_2 <- wine_data[complete.cases(wine_data),]
As you see — we can use as special function na.omit() as already known complete.cases(). The result is the same: there will be no more missing values in the dataset.
When we build some filters, we expect the result to have only matching values. It becomes especially valuable while working with data frames. But if you run, for example, this command:
wine_data_condition_NA <- wine_data[wine_data$price > 20,]
you will get not the correct subset only, but all the missing values too. It is the result of R data frame indexing, boolean arrays, and NA nature: missing value turns the condition result into NA which is treated as not FALSE. And we still have the pain of missing values search.
The solution is subset() function:
wine_data_condition <- subset(wine_data, wine_data$price > 20)
It returns the correct subset, but without NAs, which are filtered away.
Let’s return to the step when we looked at the whole picture of the dataset. We want to see the distribution of missing values, maybe some patterns, or dependency between variables. And we have another R package with the desired function — “mice” package. It contains functions, which walk through the dataset, count all the omissions, and build the picture of the dataset. For example, let’s take the sample: wine_data[1:5, 4:8]. It contains the next data:
As we see, there are some missing values. Let’s apply md.pattern() function from the mentioned package:
require(mice)md.pattern(wine_data[1:5, 4:8], plot = F)
And we get the table of patterns:
The leftmost index shows the number of rows. The rightmost index shows the number of missing features. The central matrix shows the patterns: which features combination is absent in the counted rows. So the first line tells us, that there are 2 rows with no absent data (0 missing features). And the third line shows, that there is 1 row in the data fragment with 1 missing feature — with price missing.
Now we are ready to visualize the distribution of missing values. We have another R package for this job — VIM library. Among many other functions it plots the distribution histogram of empty records and builds a visual representation of patterns table from the previous step:
require(VIM)aggr_plot <- aggr(wine_data, col=c(‘navyblue’,’red’), numbers=TRUE, labels=colnames(wine_data), ylab=c(“Histogram of missing data”,”Pattern”))
We have got a beautiful picture:
Now we can see, for example, that almost 60% of the rows have no region_2 value.
As for me, you should bring these code snippets to automatism. And you will gather significant analysis speeding. Also, as always, you may find the code with working examples on my GitHub:

] | Handle missing data with R: 10 daily used idioms | by Pavlo Horbonos | Towards Data Science |
Tryit: HTML image map - execute a function | [] | Tryit Editor v3.7 |
This blog will help you to train a model which can identify different objects in an image. It’s fun and exciting to observe how the model can behave better than humans in certain conditions. It can differentiate between car and pickup truck even if the rear of the truck is not clear in an image, personally, I wasn’t able to make that difference. In case you have already used YOLO as a black box this blog will help you to understand the model and its nuances. Finally, there are some questions that can help you to gauge your understanding of the model. Try to answer the questions in the comment section and don’t hesitate to ask me if you need an answer.
Requirements: A pc with an internet connection and a Google account.
Learnings: An hands-on experience of object detection using YOLOv3 to deepen the understanding of YOLO algorithm.
Setup: Set up a Colab notebook account through your google drive (My Drive > New > More > Connect More apps > Colab). To perform the object detection on images in your pc install ‘Drive Backup and Sync’. Allow one folder on your pc to sync on google drive. The files (images or videos) from this folder will be accessed by Colab (via google drive).
Object detection
The object detection part is divided into 9 easy steps. It will allow you to apply object detection on the images clicked by you. So let’s begin the object detection first and later on I will explain the algorithm (YOLO) behind it.
STEP1: Connect your Colab notebook with google drive. Once you import and mount the drive, you need to click on the link which appears below your code. You need to allow the Colab to access the drive by permitting it.
from google.colab import drivedrive.mount('/content.gdrive')
Step2: Change the hardware accelerator to GPU (Runtime > Change Runtime type > Hardware accelerator = GPU). To make sure you are connected to GPU, type !nvidia-smi, if you are connected you should get the details of GPU you are connected (as shown below).
!nvidia-smi
Step3: Darknet is an open-source neural network written by Joseph Redmon. It is written in C and CUDA. It supports both CPU and GPU computation. The official implementation of the darknet is available at: https://pjreddie.com/darknet/ . We will use a slightly modified version of the darknet available at AlexyAB/darknet. This neural network framework can be used for object detection using YOLO.
#clone darknet repositoryimport osos.environ['PATH'] += ':/usr/local/cuda/bin'!rm -fr darknet!git clone https://github.com/AlexeyAB/darknet
Step4: Check the current directory using !pwd. We should be in /content/darknet folder. Or else change to darknet folder (%cd /darknet). Once in this folder, we using stream editor (sed) to edit the make files of GPU and OpenCV (in, in-place mode, i.e, sed -i). We change all the instances of GPU=0 to GPU =1, to enable GPU and OpenCV.
#go to the darknet folder, edit and remake Makefiles of GPU and OPENCV!sed -i 's/GPU=0/GPU=1/g' Makefile!sed -i 's/OPENCV=0/OPENCV=1/g' Makefile!make
Step5: Loading the pre-trained weights for YOLO object detection. We get the pre-trained weights for YOLOv3 from pjreddie.com. This website belongs to Joseph Redmon the man behind YOLO and darknet.
# get yolov3 weights!wget https://pjreddie.com/media/files/yolov3.weights!chmod a+x ./darknet
Step6: Make sure that you are in the correct directory (/content/darknet) using !pwd. If yes, then install the required packages. For the complete list, I will encourage you to have a look at my jupyter file on github.
!apt install ffmpeg libopencv-dev libgtk-3-dev python-numpy python3-numpy libdc1394-22 libdc1394-22-dev libjpeg-dev libtiff5-dev libavcodec-dev libavformat-dev libswscale-dev libxine2-dev libgstreamer1.0-dev libgstreamer-plugins-base1.0-dev libv4l-dev libtbb-dev qtbase5-dev libfaac-dev libmp3lame-dev libopencore-amrnb-dev libopencore-amrwb-dev libtheora-dev libvorbis-dev libxvidcore-dev x264 v4l-utils unzip
Step7: Loading the image from your drive to Colab and running YOLO on it. You can transfer any image from your pc to the folder you shared with google drive in step 1. That image will appear in the same folder in the drive. In my case, I named the folder ‘darknet’ and the name of the image is ‘test2.jpg’. The address of the folder will be: /content.gdrive/My Drive/darknet/test2.jpg but since space is not allowed in the address path you can use: /content.gdrive/My\ Drive/darknet/test2.jpg.
!./darknet detect cfg/yolov3.cfg yolov3.weights /content.gdrive/My\ Drive/darknet/test2.jpg
Step8: You need OpenCV and matplotlib to view your result. If you are on this step first of all congratulations that you have run your very first YOLO object detection using your image.
import cv2import matplotlib.pyplot as pltimport os.pathfig,ax = plt.subplots()ax.tick_params(labelbottom="off",bottom="off")ax.tick_params(labelleft="off",left="off")ax.set_xticklabels([])ax.axis('off')file = './predictions.jpg'if os.path.exists(file):img = cv2.imread(file)show_img = cv2.cvtColor(img, cv2.COLOR_BGR2RGB)#show_img(show_img)plt.imshow(show_img)plt.show()#cv2.imshow(img)
Step9: Result analysis. Here you can see that algorithm can correctly detect a baby as a person, cell phone, and hairbrush (as a toothbrush). While several other items (hairdryer, small purse, makeup items)can’t be detected. Can you guess the reason? Maybe you should check the weights we used were trained on which all objects.
Here I have presented an exercise to help new users to start object detection by just using their pc. Moreover, users can use their images so it will further add to their fun. Once you are done with this fun part it will be intriguing to know how YOLO can detect the objects.
Let’s try to learn how does the algorithm works.
YOLO (link to original paper ): You Only Look Once is an object detection network. It localizes and classifies an object. It does both these tasks in a single step. The backbone of YOLO in the darknet-53 neural network, there are 53 convolutional layers in the network for feature extraction.
YOLO divides the input image in m x m grid. Each cell of the grid contains some (B) anchor boxes to localize the object. For an object, the cell in which the center of the object lies is responsible for detecting the object.
Let’s try to understand the output vector which will give insights into different aspects of this algorithm. The output vector will consist of B * (5 + C) elements. B is the number of anchor boxes that are present in each cell. Each box will give a probability element showing what’s the probability of an object being present in the cell, 4 elements describing the bounding box (2 for center coordinates bx, by and other two to describe height and width of the box bh and bw). C is the number of classes. If there are 6 classes then there will be 11 elements per box, and if there are 3 boxes then in totality there will be 33 elements in the output.
YOLOv3 is among the fastest object detection algorithm currently present. The speed comes at the cost of accuracy. It makes a high error in object localization compared to fast R-CNN but still, it makes less background error compared to later.
To detect multiple objects per cell, it makes use of multiple anchor boxes per cell. Of course, these anchors would be of a different dimension. Let’s say one is a wider rectangle (lengthwise) other being a longer rectangle (width-wise). One other aspect to mention is to get rid of multiple bounding boxes per object it uses standard non-max suppression.
You may comment on your answers in the comment section or ask me in case you want me to answer any of these. I will highly appreciate it if you could answer the questions for which you know the answers, other readers will definitely get benefitted because of your comments.
Q1. An n x n image convolved with a filter of size f x f, padding of p and stride of s, what will be the size of output? Do check what happens if there is no padding and f & s both are equal to 2.
Q2. Why are fully connected layers required in an object detection neural network?
Q3. List down the strategy/methods for data augmentation.
Q4. What is the difference between the anchor box and the bounding box in YOLO?

] | Object Detection Using YOLOv3 on Colab with questions for interview preparation | by Manish Sharma | Towards Data Science |
17 Jan, 2022
Maps are associative containers that store elements in a mapped fashion. Each element has a key value and a mapped value. No two mapped values can have the same key values.
Some basic functions associated with Map:
begin() – Returns an iterator to the first element in the map.
end() – Returns an iterator to the theoretical element that follows the last element in the map.
size() – Returns the number of elements in the map.
max_size() – Returns the maximum number of elements that the map can hold.
empty() – Returns whether the map is empty.
pair insert(keyvalue, mapvalue) – Adds a new element to the map.
erase(iterator position) – Removes the element at the position pointed by the iterator.
erase(const g)– Removes the key-value ‘g’ from the map.
clear() – Removes all the elements from the map.
Implementation:
CPP
// CPP Program to demonstrate the implementation in Map#include <iostream>#include <iterator>#include <map>using namespace std; int main(){ // empty map container map<int, int> gquiz1; // insert elements in random order gquiz1.insert(pair<int, int>(1, 40)); gquiz1.insert(pair<int, int>(2, 30)); gquiz1.insert(pair<int, int>(3, 60)); gquiz1.insert(pair<int, int>(4, 20)); gquiz1.insert(pair<int, int>(5, 50)); gquiz1.insert(pair<int, int>(6, 50)); gquiz1.insert(pair<int, int>(7, 10)); // printing map gquiz1 map<int, int>::iterator itr; cout << "\nThe map gquiz1 is : \n"; cout << "\tKEY\tELEMENT\n"; for (itr = gquiz1.begin(); itr != gquiz1.end(); ++itr) { cout << '\t' << itr->first << '\t' << itr->second << '\n'; } cout << endl; // assigning the elements from gquiz1 to gquiz2 map<int, int> gquiz2(gquiz1.begin(), gquiz1.end()); // print all elements of the map gquiz2 cout << "\nThe map gquiz2 after" << " assign from gquiz1 is : \n"; cout << "\tKEY\tELEMENT\n"; for (itr = gquiz2.begin(); itr != gquiz2.end(); ++itr) { cout << '\t' << itr->first << '\t' << itr->second << '\n'; } cout << endl; // remove all elements up to // element with key=3 in gquiz2 cout << "\ngquiz2 after removal of" " elements less than key=3 : \n"; cout << "\tKEY\tELEMENT\n"; gquiz2.erase(gquiz2.begin(), gquiz2.find(3)); for (itr = gquiz2.begin(); itr != gquiz2.end(); ++itr) { cout << '\t' << itr->first << '\t' << itr->second << '\n'; } // remove all elements with key = 4 int num; num = gquiz2.erase(4); cout << "\ngquiz2.erase(4) : "; cout << num << " removed \n"; cout << "\tKEY\tELEMENT\n"; for (itr = gquiz2.begin(); itr != gquiz2.end(); ++itr) { cout << '\t' << itr->first << '\t' << itr->second << '\n'; } cout << endl; // lower bound and upper bound for map gquiz1 key = 5 cout << "gquiz1.lower_bound(5) : " << "\tKEY = "; cout << gquiz1.lower_bound(5)->first << '\t'; cout << "\tELEMENT = " << gquiz1.lower_bound(5)->second << endl; cout << "gquiz1.upper_bound(5) : " << "\tKEY = "; cout << gquiz1.upper_bound(5)->first << '\t'; cout << "\tELEMENT = " << gquiz1.upper_bound(5)->second << endl; return 0;}
The map gquiz1 is :
KEY ELEMENT
1 40
2 30
3 60
4 20
5 50
6 50
7 10
The map gquiz2 after assign from gquiz1 is :
KEY ELEMENT
1 40
2 30
3 60
4 20
5 50
6 50
7 10
gquiz2 after removal of elements less than key=3 :
KEY ELEMENT
3 60
4 20
5 50
6 50
7 10
gquiz2.erase(4) : 1 removed
KEY ELEMENT
3 60
5 50
6 50
7 10
gquiz1.lower_bound(5) : KEY = 5 ELEMENT = 50
gquiz1.upper_bound(5) : KEY = 6 ELEMENT = 50

In this article, we will explore Folium, a Python library which makes it easy to visualize data that’s been manipulated in Python on an interactive leaflet map.
The maps created using folium are highly interactive which makes it even more useful for dashboard building. So let’s start exploring Folium and learn on our way of exploring it.
We can install folium by running the following given below command in our command prompt.
pip install folium
After installing folium we need to import it in our Jupiter notebook to start working. Folium is an easy to understand library by which you can create highly interactive and visually appealing maps in just a few lines of code.
Here we will learn how we can use it to create a world map. For this, we just need to call the Map() function. The code given below will help you understand this better.
#importing folium libraryimport folium# calling Map() functionworld_map = folium.Map()#displaying world mapworld_map
The map created above is interactive i.e. you can actually zoom-in and zoom-out of the map using the ‘+’ and ‘-’ or by just using the cursor of your mouse.
We can pass the ‘location’ argument which contains the longitude and latitude of a particular location to Map() function to display the map of the desired location. For example, you can see the code below I used to create the map of Russia using its coordinates. Here I have also passed an attribute named ‘zoom_start’ which already zoom-in accordingly.
mah_map = folium.Map(location=[61.5240, 105.3188], zoom_start=3)mah_map
Further, you can use folium for creating different types of maps. Some of them I have explained below.
These are the high contrast Black & White maps. They are perfect for data mashups and exploring river meanders and coastal zones.
For creating this we just need to add an attribute to Map() function named ‘tiles’ and set it to Stamen Toner. The code below is used to create a Stamen Toner map of India.
india_map = folium.Map(location=[20.5937, 78.9629 ], zoom_start=4, tiles='Stamen Toner')india_map
These maps show hill shading and natural vegetation colors. They also showcase the advanced labeling and linework generalization of dual-carriageway roads.
For creating this we need to set the value of attribute tiles as Stamen Terrain. The below code will produce the Stamen Terrain map of India.
india_map = folium.Map(location=[20.5937, 78.9629 ], zoom_start=4, tiles='Stamen Terrain')india_map
Other than this there are many more tile options like ‘Mapbox Bright’ etc. that you can explore and learn.
Folium also has a marker function that marks the desired location of your choice of given coordinates. We can also select the icon for the marker.
Below Given code is used to create a map and displaying the marker on the desired location.
my_map = folium.Map(location=[20.5937, 78.9629], zoom_start=4, tiles='Stamen Terrain')folium.Marker([28.73158, 77.13267], popup='MyLocation', marker_icon='cloud').add_to(my_map)my_map
In this article, we explored a beautiful library Folium use to create leaflet maps that are interactive and visually appealing. We can use these maps in our dashboards or as needed. Folium is easy to understand the library and creates a map in just one line of code. This article is just a basic understanding of folium, go ahead, and explore folium for many more features.

The z-index property specifies the
stack order of an element.
When elements are positioned, they can overlap other elements.
The z-index property specifies the stack order of an element (which element should be placed in front of, or behind, the others).
An element can have a positive or negative stack order:
Because the image has a z-index of -1, it will be placed behind the text.
Note: z-index only works on positioned elements (position: absolute,
position: relative, position: fixed, or position: sticky) and flex items
(elements that are direct children of display: flex elements).
Here we see that an element with greater stack order is always above an element with a lower stack order:
If two positioned elements overlap each other without a z-index
specified, the element defined last in the HTML code will be shown on top.
Same example as above, but here with no z-index specified:
Both the header and the paragraph are positioned at the top of the page.
Make sure that the header is placed on top of the paragraph.
<style>
{
position: absolute;
top: 0;
: 1;
}
{
position: absolute;
top: 0;
: 0;
}
</style>
<body>

Here we will see how to subtract two 8-bit numbers using this microcontroller. The register A(Accumulator) is used as one operand in the operations. There are seven registers R0 – R7 in different register banks. We can use any of them as the second operand.
We are taking two number73H and BDH at location 20H and 21H, After subtracting the result will be stored at location 30H and 31H.
MOVR0,#20H;set source address 20H to R0
MOVR1,#30H;set destination address 30H to R1
MOVA,@R0;take the value from source to register A
MOVR5,A; Move the value from A to R5
MOVR4,#00H; Clear register R4 to store borrow
INCR0; Point to the next location
MOVA,@R0; take the value from source to register A
MOVR3,A; store second byte
MOVA,R5;get back the first operand
SUBBA,R3; Subtract R3 from A
JNCSAVE
INCR4; Increment R4 to get borrow
MOVB,R4;Get borrow to register B
MOV@R1,B; Store the borrow first
INCR1; Increase R1 to point to the next address
SAVE: MOV@R1,A; Store the result
HALT: SJMP HALT ;Stop the program
So by subtracting 73H –BDH, the result will be B6H. At location 30H, we will get 01H. This indicates that the result is negative. The get the actual value from result B6H, we have to perform 2’s complement operation. After performing 2’s Complement, the result will be -4AH. | [

At times you may need a function in only one place in your program and the function is so trivial that you may not give it a name, or may not like to store it in the symbol table, and would rather write an unnamed or anonymous function.
LISP allows you to write anonymous functions that are evaluated only when they are encountered in the program. These functions are called Lambda functions.
You can create such functions using the lambda expression. The syntax for the lambda expression is as follows −
(lambda (parameters) body)
A lambda form cannot be evaluated and it must appear only where LISP expects to find a function.
Create a new source code file named main.lisp and type the following code in it.
(write ((lambda (a b c x)
(+ (* a (* x x)) (* b x) c))
4 2 9 3)
)
When you execute the code, it returns the following result −

Use the File.exists method in C# to check if a file exits in C# or not.
Firstly, check whether the file is present in the current directory.
if (File.Exists("MyFile.txt")) {
Console.WriteLine("The file exists.");
}
After that check whether the file exist in a directory or not.
if (File.Exists(@"D:\myfile.txt")) {
Console.WriteLine("The file exists.");
}
Let us see the complete example to check if a file exists in C#.

Function overriding is a redefinition of the base class function in its derived class with the same signature i.e. return type and parameters. But there may be situations when a programmer makes a mistake while overriding that function. So, to keep track of such an error, C++11 has come up with the override identifier. If the compiler comes across this identifier, it understands that this is an overridden version of the same class. It will make the compiler check the base class to see if there is a virtual function with this exact signature. And if there is not, the compiler will show an error.
The programmer’s intentions can be made clear to the compiler by override. If the override identifier is used with a member function, the compiler makes sure that the member function exists in the base class, and also the compiler restricts the program to compile otherwise.
Let’s understand through the following example:
CPP
// A CPP program without override keyword, here// programmer makes a mistake and it is not caught#include <iostream>using namespace std; class Base {public: // user wants to override this in // the derived class virtual void func() { cout << "I am in base" << endl; }}; class derived : public Base {public: // did a silly mistake by putting // an argument "int a" void func(int a) { cout << "I am in derived class" << endl; }}; // Driver codeint main(){ Base b; derived d; cout << "Compiled successfully" << endl; return 0;}
Compiled successfully
Explanation: Here, the user intended to override the function func() in the derived class but did a silly mistake and redefined the function with a different signature. Which was not detected by the compiler. However, the program is not actually what the user wanted. So, to get rid of such silly mistakes to be on the safe side, the override identifier can be used. Below is a C++ example to show the use of override identifier in C++.
CPP
// A CPP program that uses override keyword so// that any difference in function signature is// caught during compilation#include <iostream>using namespace std; class Base {public: // user wants to override this in // the derived class virtual void func() { cout << "I am in base" << endl; }}; class derived : public Base {public: // did a silly mistake by putting // an argument "int a" void func(int a) override { cout << "I am in derived class" << endl; }}; int main(){ Base b; derived d; cout << "Compiled successfully" << endl; return 0;}
Output(Error)
prog.cpp:17:7: error: 'void derived::func(int)'
marked 'override', but does not override
void func(int a) override
^
In short, it serves the following functions. It helps to check if:
There is a method with the same name in the parent class.
The method in the parent class is declared as “virtual” which means it was intended to be rewritten.
The method in the parent class has the same signature as the method in the subclass.
