• Good introductory statistics book?

  - by lmsasu

  Hello, what is a good introductory statistics book you can recommend? if there is a whole sequence of books that should be read, please do not hesitate to mention it. Books with applications are also welcome. I am aware that a single search on Amazon (or any other book seller) will provide me tons of titles, but some of them are avoidable... About my background/knowledge: good knowledge of mathematics and probability theory, but almost null on statistics.

• shortest directed odd cycle

  - by gleb-pendler

  6.1.4 Describe an algorithm based on breadth-first search for finding a shortest odd cycle in a graph. 6.3.5 Describe an algorithm based on directed breadth-first search for finding a shortest directed odd cycle in a digraph. what is most importent is that it must be a directed graph not necessary bfs but must be the shortest directed odd cycle!!! Question was taken from "Graph Theory" by J.A. Bondy and U.S.R. Murty thanks in advance!!!

• what can Phing do that Ant can't?

  - by michael

  I'm doing PHP development and I'm thinking of using one of these. I have both PHP and Java installed on my machine. In theory I could use any of the two. What are the compelling arguments to pick Phing over Ant?

• Best Planar graph program

  - by brian

  In graph theory, a planar graph is a graph that can be embedded in the plane, i.e., it can be drawn on the plane in such a way that its edges intersect only at their endpoints. What is the best open source program for drawing the planar graph with support of input nodes size and fixed drawing boundary region

• How would you handle making an array or list that would have more entries than the standard implemen

  - by faceless1_14

  I am trying to create an array or list that could handle in theory, given adequate hardware and such, as many as 100^100 BigInteger entries. The problem with using an array or standard list is that they can only hold Integer.MAX_VALUE number of entries. How would you work around this limitations? A whole new class/interface? A wrapper for list? another data type entirely?

• how good is java's UUID.randomUUID?

  - by Alvin

  I know randomized UUID have very very very low probability for collision in theory, but I am wondering, in practice, how good is java 5's randonUUID in terms of not having collision? Does anybody have any experience to share?

• Combined states, FSM

  - by bobobobo

  Not sure this is the right place to ask, but is it "correct" to combine states of an FSM? Say you have an object with enum State { State1 = 1 << 0, State2 = 1 << 1, State3 = 1 << 2 } ; It just so happens that it makes sense to combine states, as in State myState = State1 | State2 ; however in FSM theory is this illegal?

• Scala giving me "illegal start of definition"

  - by Malvolio

  I'm trying to get started with Scala and cannot get out of the starting gate. A file consisting of the line package x gives me error: illegal start of definition Regardless of what x is and regardless of where I put the file (I had a theory that I had to place the file in a directory hierarchy to match the package definition, but no). I get the same error with the example code from the web site and with the REPL.

• Parse tree and grammars information

  - by fuzzylogikk

  Do anyone know where to find good online resources with examples how to make grammars and parsetrees? Preferebly introductary materials. Info that is n00b friendly, haven't found anything good with google myself. edit: I'm thinking about theory, not a specific parser software.

• What situations does a Monostate pattern model?

  - by devoured elysium

  I know what both a Singleton or a Monostate are and how to implement them. Although I can see many uses for a Singleton, I can't imagine a situation where I would want to let the user create as many instances of my class although in reality only one really exists behind the scenes. Can anybody help me here? I know that for several reasons one should stay away from both patterns, but in theory, what kind of problems does the Monostate model? Thanks

• Lazy Loading wpf Combobox items

  - by Chris McGrath

  I have an IEnumerable< which lazy loads it's data. I want to just set a Combobox's ItemsSource to the IEnumerable, but when I do it goes and loads all the data anyway (which removes the point of lazy loading). I've tried it with Linq-To-Sql as well since it seems to be a similar theory and it also loads all the data. Is there an easy way to do this?

• Choosing colour schemes

  - by DanDan

  How do you choose your colour schemes for your applications and/or web designs? Is it a gut instinct thing or can logic be applied here too? I have looked at some colour theory but my combinations seemed wrong. I am looking at a monochrome webpage. Rather than pluck colours out of the air as usual I would like to see if there is a science behind this. Links and opinions welcome.

• SQL join: where clause vs. on clause

  - by BCS

  After reading it, this is not a duplicate of Explicit vs Implicit SQL Joins. The answer may be related (or even the same) but the question is different. What is the difference and what should go in each? If I understand the theory correctly, the query optimizer should be able to use both interchangeably.

• Enum type constraints in C#

  - by Taylor L

  What is the reason behind C# not allowing type constraints on Enum's? I'm sure there is a method behind the madness, but I'd like to understand why it's not possible. Below is what I would like to be able to do (in theory). public static T GetEnum<T>(this string description) where T : Enum { ... }

• Understanding colors

  - by Ankur Gupta

  Hello everyone, Kindly point towards theory/material to read for understanding colors and what makes a good color combinations. Mind it that I am not interested in say "Color combinations for web application" etc. More of the lines of say "Colors and humans". Material free to read is what i am looking for. Thanks

• lexers vs parsers

  - by Naveen

  Are lexers and parsers really that different in theory ? It seems fashionable to hate regular expressions: coding horror, another blog post. However, popular lexing based tools: pygments, geshi, or prettify, all use regular expressions. They seem to lex anything... When is lexing enough, when do you need EBNF ? Has anyone used the tokens produced by these lexers with bison or antlr parser generators?

• With g++ is there a runtime setting to scramble freed memory with delete?

  - by Steven Behnke

  Does anyone know how I can for the g++ or gcc runtime to scramble the ram where an object was after delete? I have a theory that I'm using an object after it has been deleted but in practice it rarely crashes.

• Cocoa for the non-techinical

  - by annoyed

  How would you describe and explain Cocoa in non-technical terms, with lots of analogies to common, everyday things. For example, imagine you are describing it to a 5-year-old who keeps asking why? at the end if each explanation. This would invariable delve into the theory of OO so it could get lengthy, but the concept is important to the 'why' of Cocoa.

• What data structures and algorithms are applied within data warehouse cubes?

  - by Jeff Meatball Yang

  I understand that cubes are optimized data structures for aggregating and "slicing" large amounts of data. I just don't know how they are implemented. I can imagine a lot of this technology is proprietary, but are there any resources that I could use to start implementing my own cube technology? Set theory and lots of math are probably involved (and welcome as suggestions!), but I'm primarily interested in implementations: the data structures and query algorithms. Thanks!

• Java - why no return type based method overloading?

  - by llm

  I know this is not possible but can anyone provide a theory as to why Java chose not to support this? I am asking because I just ran into a situation where I think it would be nice to have.

• technologies beside scaling web applications in a distributed nature

  - by wik

  Hello, I am interested in theory to scale web applications in a distributed nature, i.e. when there is some platform/stack can be extended by others applications running on different servers, etc. I am researching this field and feels the lack of the right keywords :) Interesting concepts found so far: opensocial through API, like shopify does (shopify it's a hosted ecommerce solution) semantic web not quite sure about this one Am I on the right way or am I lost anything? :) Thanks.

• Are there any simple languages implemented using ANTLR or similar?

  - by etheros

  I'm trying to build a simple interpreted language for learning purposes. I've read countless theory and tutorials on ANTLR and JavaCC, but I can't figure out how to actually make it do something useful. I learn best by "taking something apart and putting it back together again", so, are there any working examples of simple languages implemented with the help of tools such as ANTLR, or similar? Something like the following might be nice: x = 1 if x == 1 print "true"

• The order of a SQL Select statement without Order By clause

  - by Yousui

  As I know, from the relational database theory, a select statement without an order by clause should be considered has not particular order. But actually in SQL Server and Oracle (I've tested on those 2 platforms), if I query from a table without an order by clause multiple times, I always get the results in the same order. Does this behavior can be relied on? Anyone can help to explain a little? Thanks!
