How is floating point conversion actually done in C++?(double to float or float to double)

The cvtsd2ss instruction uses the FPU’s rounding mode to do the conversion. The default rounding mode is round-to-nearest-even. In order to follow the algorithm, it helps to keep in mind the information at the IEEE 754-1985 Wikipedia page, especially the diagrams representing the layout. First, the exponent of the target float is computed: the double … Read more

Print / display a JavaScript variable’s name instead of it’s value

You can put the variables in an object then easily print them this way: http://jsfiddle.net/5MVde/7/ See fiddle for everything, this is the JavaScript… var x = { foo: 5, bar: 6, foobar: function (){ var that=this; return that.foo+that.bar } }; var myDiv = document.getElementById(“results”); myDiv.innerHTML=’Variable Names…’; for(var variable in x) { //alert(variable); myDiv.innerHTML+='<br>’+variable; } myDiv.innerHTML+='<br><br>And … Read more

Convert std::variant to another std::variant with super-set of types

This is an implementation of Yakk’s second option: template <class… Args> struct variant_cast_proxy { std::variant<Args…> v; template <class… ToArgs> operator std::variant<ToArgs…>() const { return std::visit([](auto&& arg) -> std::variant<ToArgs…> { return arg ; }, v); } }; template <class… Args> auto variant_cast(const std::variant<Args…>& v) -> variant_cast_proxy<Args…> { return {v}; } You might want to fine tune … Read more

CASTING attributes for Ordering on a Doctrine2 DQL Query

You should be able to add your own function to implement this feature. The class would look something like this: namespace MyProject\Query; use Doctrine\ORM\Query\AST\Functions\FunctionNode; use Doctrine\ORM\Query\Lexer; use Doctrine\ORM\Query\Parser; use Doctrine\ORM\Query\SqlWalker; class CastAsInteger extends FunctionNode { public $stringPrimary; public function getSql(SqlWalker $sqlWalker) { return ‘CAST(‘ . $this->stringPrimary->dispatch($sqlWalker) . ‘ AS integer)’; } public function parse(Parser $parser) … Read more
