identifier

package main import "fmt" const name = "Yosua" // or var name string = "James" func main() { name := "Jobs" fmt.Println(name) } How to refer to the constant and not the the function level variable? You can't. While the local variable name is in scope, the name name denotes the local variable. And there is no "qualifier" to refer to top-level identifiers. Spec: Declarations and scope: An identifier declared in a block may be redeclared in an inner block. While the identifier of the inner declaration is in scope, it denotes the entity declared by the inner declaration. If you need to access both

PHP allows Unicode identifiers for variables, functions, classes and constants anyhow. It was certainly intended for localized applications. Wether it's a good idea to code an API in anything but English is debatable, but it's undisputed that some development settings could demand it. $Schüssel = new Müsli(T_FRÜCHTE); But PHP allows more than just \p{L} for identifiers. You can use virtually any Unicode character, except those from the ASCII range (e.g. : is special or \ as that's already used as internal hack to support namespaces.) Anyway, you could do so, and I would even consider that a

I need to get any number, serial, key or whatever to identify every device where my phonegap app is running, I think uuid also changes when the app updates so it wouldn't work for me. The scenario here is that the user can synchronize data from the app, so I need to know which device has synchronized and which has not, or if it needs to update new data that maybe others devices have already done, etc any ideas? <script type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8"> document.addEventListener("deviceready", onDeviceReady, false); function onDeviceReady() { var element = document.getElementById(

I need to generate a unique ID and was considering Guid.NewGuid to do this, which generates something of the form: 0fe66778-c4a8-4f93-9bda-366224df6f11 This is a little long for the string-type database column that it will end up residing in, so I was planning on truncating it. The question is: Is one end of a GUID more preferable than the rest in terms of uniqueness? Should I be lopping off the start, the end, or removing parts from the middle? Or does it just not matter? You can save space by using a base64 string instead: var g = Guid.NewGuid(); var s = Convert.ToBase64String(g.ToByteArray(

I ran across this case of UnboundLocalError recently, which seems strange: import pprint def main(): if 'pprint' in globals(): print 'pprint is in globals()' pprint.pprint('Spam') from pprint import pprint pprint('Eggs') if __name__ == '__main__': main() Which produces: pprint is in globals() Traceback (most recent call last): File "weird.py", line 9, in <module> if __name__ == '__main__': main() File "weird.py", line 5, in main pprint.pprint('Spam') UnboundLocalError: local variable 'pprint' referenced before assignment pprint is clearly bound in globals , and is going to be bound in locals

I think this has been up before, but could'nt find any answer to it. If it's already answered please point me in the right direction with a link. I have an array that I wan't to remove the first levels of identifier. I think there is a function for this? Example of how it is: [0] => Array ( [8] => Röd ) [1] => Array ( [8] => Blå ) [2] => Array ( [6] => Bobo ) [3] => Array ( [8] => Grön ) [4] => Array ( [7] => Sten ) [5] => Array ( [8] => Vit ) [6] => Array ( [7] => Guld ) [7] => Array ( [6] => Lyxig ) What I wan't [8] => Röd [8] => Blå [6] => Bobo [8] => Grön [7] => Sten [8] => Vit [7] => Guld
