syntax-error

I hate to ask such a specific question, but I'm getting an error I can't figure out. This is in a cron job which runs on the hour. I'm creating an array of tasks, each of which has a date check which is supposed to be eval()'d. $todo = array(); $todo[] = array( "date('z')%3 == 0", "Task 1" ); $todo[] = array( "date('N') == 1", "Task 2" ); foreach( $todo as $task ) { if( eval($task[0]) ) { echo $task[1]; } } For some reason the eval() line is giving me this error. Note that I am getting this error for both tasks. Parse error: syntax error, unexpected $end in /file.php(21) : eval()'d code on

I've been trying to learn Twill Scripting on Python and I am using Python 3.4 and Twill 1.8.0 . Been reading some posts here and I found it interesting to study. But, I do have a problem installing Twill. I just knew that PRINT in Python is now a function so meaning it needs parenthesis and that's where my problem starts. As I look through the codes on Twill 1.8.0, I think it isn't oriented with the change of using PRINT yet. Strings are not enclosed with parenthesis so I was thinking maybe there is a new patch or version of Twill that adapts the changes of Python, is there any? or is there

Would like to plot two ggplots on one page. Took the example from Cookbook for R and it doesn't work. The error is could not find function "multiplot" . However ggplots are plotable, also I reinstalled R, ggplot2, restarted, etc.. Am I doing something wrong? library(ggplot2) # This example uses the ChickWeight dataset, which comes with ggplot2 # First plot p1 <- ggplot(ChickWeight, aes(x=Time, y=weight, colour=Diet, group=Chick)) + geom_line() + ggtitle("Growth curve for individual chicks") # Second plot p2 <- ggplot(ChickWeight, aes(x=Time, y=weight, colour=Diet)) + geom_point(alpha=.3) +

In Ruby, I can define a method foo=(bar): irb(main):001:0> def foo=(bar) irb(main):002:1> p "foo=#{bar}" irb(main):003:1> end => nil Now I'd like to check if it has been defined, irb(main):004:0> defined?(foo=) SyntaxError: compile error (irb):4: syntax error, unexpected ')' from (irb):4 from :0 What is the proper syntax to use here? I assume there must be a way to escape "foo=" such that it is parsed and passed correctly to the defined? operator. The problem is that the foo= method is designed to be used in assignments. You can use defined? in the following way to see what's going on: defined
