There will be times when we misspell some words when we write something. To overcome this problem, we use the PyEnchant module in Python. This module is used to check the spelling of words and suggest corrections that are misspelled words. It is also used in many popular tasks, including ispell, aspell, and MySpell. It is very flexible in handling multiple dictionaries and multiple languages. For example, if the input is 'prfomnc', then the output returned would be - 'prominence', 'performance', 'preform', 'provence', 'preferment', 'proforma'. PyEnchant Module For Windows users, install the pre-built binary packages using pip - pip ... Read More
Minkowski distance is a metric in a normed vector space that measures the distance between two or more vectors. This is typically used in machine learning to find distance similarity. The formula to calculate the Minkowski distance is - $$\mathrm{D= \big[\sum_{i=1}^{n}|r_i-s_i|^p\big]^{1/p}}$$ Where, xi and yi: Two points in n-dimensional space p: Parameter that determines the type of distance being calculated. For example, if p=1, it is the Manhattan distance, and if p=2, it represents Euclidean distance. For example, if we consider the following vector's as input - x = (0, ... Read More
The POSIX stands for Portable Operating System which was developed by IEEE (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers). This is UNIX based operating system that is used for both system calls and library functions. The semaphores are used in the process of multithreading and synchronization. For eg. file sharing and memory management. It can be named or unnamed. Multithreading is the process of executing multiple tasks in the same instance of time while synchronization is used to control the thread to work in a sequential manner. It is important for data security. Using Semaphores in C language To use ... Read More
In this article, we will show you how you can get the current time and date in Python with the help of different functions. Here are the different ways to get the current Date and Time using the Datetime Module - Using the now() Method Using the today() Method Current ... Read More
In this article, we will show you how you can get the timer ticks at the given time using different functions in Python. To get the timer ticks at the given time, there is a time module available in Python. Here is the list of ways to solve this problem - Using time.time() Function Using time.perf_counter() Function Using time.process_time() Function Let us discuss each of these methods one by one in the section below - Using time.time() Function The time.time() function is used to get the current time in seconds. It returns the number of seconds since the ... Read More
In C/C++, there is no special method for comparing NULL values. We can use if statements to check whether a variable is null or not.Here, we will attempt to open a file in read mode that does not exist on the system. In this case, the function will return a NULL pointer. We can check whether it is NULL or not using an if statement. C Example to Check Variable is NULL or Not In this example, we check whether the file is exist or not using NULL. #include int main() { //try to open ... Read More
In this article, we will discuss how to extract a list of all the values from a Python dictionary. Following are various ways to retrieve list of all the values from a Python dictionary - Using dict.values() & list() Functions Using [] and * Using List comprehension ... Read More
In this article, we will learn about the control flow statements in JShell in Java. JShell is a new interactive command-line tool introduced in Java 9. This tool can also be called REPL (Read-Eval-Print-Loop) because it takes input, evaluates it, and returns output to the user via the command line. JShell Control Flow Statements Control flow statements are used to control the execution path of the code and are a fundamental part of the Java programming language. We can execute multiple-line control flow statements using JShell in the same way as Java. It recognizes multiple-line statements are prompts with the ... Read More
In this article, we will learn about the differences between Optional.ifPresentOrElse() and Optional.or() methods in Java 9. Both Optional.ifPresentOrElse() and Optional.or() methods were introduced in Java 9 to improve its functionality. Optional Class Optional Class is a part of java.util package, and it was introduced in Java 8. It is a container object that may or may not contain a non-null value. It helps in writing code without using too many null checks. The following are some of the common methods of the Optional Class: empty(): This method returns an empty Optional instance. ... Read More
In this article, we will learn to handle an exception in JShell in Java 9. We will learn about the JShell, exceptions in Java, JShell exceptions, their handling, and Types of exceptions in JShell with examples. What is JShell? JShell is a new command-line interactive REPL (Read-Evaluate-Print-Loop) tool introduced in Java 9 to evaluate declarations, statements, and expressions written in Java. This tool also allows us to execute Java code snippets and get immediate results. C:\Users\User>jshell | Welcome to JShell -- Version 9.0.4 | For an introduction type: /help intro jshell> JShell provides a fast and friendly environment that ... Read More
