numbers

I want to use HTML input type="number" on a mobile application, in order to indicate to the smarter mobile phones (Android, iPhone and some others), that the numeric keyboard is more interesting for the user than the normal one. This works nicely. So, I have this piece of HTML here: <h3>type="number"</h3> <input type="number" class="input-number"/> <h3>type="text"</h3> <input type="text" class="input-text"/> The important CSS elements applied here are: input { height: 2em; padding: 0.2em 0.5em; width: 100%; /* avoid iPhone rounded corners */ border: 1px solid #afb7c1; border-collapse: collapse

There is the problem of trying to see if two unique strings are anagrams of each other. The first solution that I had considered would be to sort both strings and see if they were equal to each other. I have been considering another solution and I would like to discuss if the same would be feasible. The idea would be to assign a numerical value to each character and sum it up such that a unique set of characters would produce a unique value. As we are testing for anagrams, we do not mind if the checksum of "asdf" and "adsf" are the same -- in fact, we require it to be that way. However the

I have a database with a column containing a variety of numbers written in "shorthand", for example: 5k for 5,000 86.6k for 86,600 4.1m for 4,100,000 1.2b for 1,200,000,000 I'd like to do some calculations with these numbers for a PHP frontend, but I need to convert them into valid integers in order to do so. How could I do this with PHP? Something like: switch (strtolower(substr($input, -1))) { case 'k': $input*=1000; break; // similarly for m, M, b, B. } Assuming your data is well-formatted. If not more check would be needed like: if (!preg_match('/^\d+(?:\.\d+)?[mbk]$/i',$input)) { //

I have a JSON file that looks like this: "Algeriet" : [ { "name" : "Nyårsdagen", "date" : "2013-01-01", "ID" : "1" }, { "name" : "Mawlid En Nabaoui Echarif", "date" : "2013-01-24", "ID" : "2" }, { "name" : "Första maj", "date" : "2013-05-01", "ID" : "3" }, ... ] Now I would like to begin incrementing the IDs from 0 instead of 1. How can I do this with Sublime Text 2? I have installed the Text Pastry plugin but I'm not sure how to select the IDs in the text so that I can replace these values. Peter Warbo Solved it by doing these steps: Do a find and replace for regex "ID" : "\d+" and replacing

I was wondering if there is a way to make use of the new hardware based true number generator found in intel's sandy bridge CPU? I read that intel's MKL (Math Kernel Library) exposes this functionality, but this requires the MKL suite and an intel complier, ending up pretty expensive. Is there another way to employ the hardware random number generator in my C++ code? For example a nice, header only library? Intel has posted a manual, library, and code examples for the rdrand instruction at http://software.intel.com/en-us/articles/intel-digital-random-number-generator-drng-software
