FTS does not support LIKE The previously accepted answer was incorrect. Full Text Search with its full text indexes is not for the LIKE operator at all, it has its own operators and doesn’t work for arbitrary strings. It operates on words based on dictionaries and stemming. It does support prefix matching for words, but … Read more
For best read performance you need a multicolumn index: CREATE INDEX log_combo_idx ON log (user_id, log_date DESC NULLS LAST); To make index only scans possible, add the otherwise not needed column payload in a covering index with the INCLUDE clause (Postgres 11 or later): CREATE INDEX log_combo_covering_idx ON log (user_id, log_date DESC NULLS LAST) INCLUDE … Read more
Label vs. Location The main distinction between the two methods is: loc gets rows (and/or columns) with particular labels. iloc gets rows (and/or columns) at integer locations. To demonstrate, consider a series s of characters with a non-monotonic integer index: >>> s = pd.Series(list(“abcdef”), index=[49, 48, 47, 0, 1, 2]) 49 a 48 b 47 … Read more
It actually is possible to do what you want, but you have to use the functional form of the indexing operator. When you perform an indexing operation using (), you are actually making a call to the subsref function. So, even though you can’t do this: value = magic(5)(3, 3); You can do this: value … Read more
Use del and specify the index of the element you want to delete: >>> a = [0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9] >>> del a[-1] >>> a [0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8] Also supports slices: >>> del a[2:4] >>> a [0, 1, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, … Read more
some_list[-1] is the shortest and most Pythonic. In fact, you can do much more with this syntax. The some_list[-n] syntax gets the nth-to-last element. So some_list[-1] gets the last element, some_list[-2] gets the second to last, etc, all the way down to some_list[-len(some_list)], which gives you the first element. You can also set list elements … Read more
Why is it needed? When data is stored on disk-based storage devices, it is stored as blocks of data. These blocks are accessed in their entirety, making them the atomic disk access operation. Disk blocks are structured in much the same way as linked lists; both contain a section for data, a pointer to the … Read more
Finding the index of an item in a list
Is there a way of finding where an element is in a list? [duplicate]
You already have a String parameter, you can use it as it is, you do not need to create a new one, see: public Move(String r) { String move = r; } However, move will only be a local variable, you probably want something different, but that’s another step, which you will need to do … Read more
