I am currently trying to schedule a method for execution once per week on a day which the user will select. I know I can get the current date via:  Date date = new Date();   When setting up my TimerTask for execution, I need to increment the date by 1-6 days depending on which day of week is selected by the user. I do not see a setDay() method in the documentation and was wondering if parsing the day out, changing it, and adding back to the date object is the only way. Seems like something much more simple would be out there.
I'm working with a date in this format: yyyy-mm-dd.  How can I increment this date by one day?
What material fills the synaptic cleft? Is it water? The synaptic cleft is the gap between the pre-synaptic and post-synaptic neurons, and neurotransmitters are transferred between the neurons within this region. What substance exits in this space, is it water? If so, what force makes the neurotransmitters move toward the receptors despite colliding with water molecules?

They used to be RGB 3-band images.  It is on arcmap 10.3. I was using raster calculator to remove a certain value in my 3-band landsat image. After I type in the conditional statement to remove all 0 value from the inpur RGB image, it only returns an image of 1band, black and white. How can I preserve the RGB value in output. Proving an infinite number of primes of the form 6n+1 The proofs given on other sites weren't that clear and used different methods that I have yet to learn.    Prove that there are an infinite number of primes of the form 6n+1.  The hint that was given was: Let p = p1, p2, ..., pk + 1, where p1 = 2, p2 = 3,...pk are the first k primes.  Show that p is prime.  (p1 means p sub 1, p2 means p sub 2, and pk is p sub k.  Wasn't sure how to write it on this.)    Can someone explain this hint on how they came about of p1 = 2, p2=3, etc, and prove this please?    Also, how would the proof change if the form changed?

How to prove $\sum\limits_{r=0}^n \frac{(-1)^r}{r+1}\binom{n}{r} = \frac1{n+1}$? Answering beyond the question's scope Is answering beyond the scope of the question a valid thing? Or should we just stick to the question asked and ignore any potential bugs which might be present (of course OP is unaware of that, as of now).  To make myself more clear, please have a look at this .  There are 3 answers which talk about the issue asked and that's it. If you look at my answer, I've added an additional point about a potential bug which the OP has missed now (may find out later). So is it a good thing to point out such potential bugs or not? Should this practice be encouraged? Consider repeated measures ANOVA (RM-ANOVA) with one within-subject factor A and several measurements per subject for each level of A.  It is closely related to two-way ANOVA with two factors: A and subject. They use identical decomposition of the sum of squares into four parts: A, subject, A⋅subject, and residual. However, two-way ANOVA tests the effect of A by comparing SS of A with the residual SS, while RM-ANOVA tests the effect of A by comparing SS of A with the A$\cdot$subject interaction SS.   Why the difference?    Does this difference automatically follow from the repeated-measures structure of the data, or is it some convention?  Does this difference between two-way ANOVA and RM-ANOVA correspond to testing two different nulls? If so, what exactly are they and why would we use different nulls in these two cases? Two-way ANOVA's test can be understood as an F-test between two nested models: the full model, and the model without A. Can RM-ANOVA be understood in a similar way?   (If there is only one measurement per subject for each level of A, then the distinction sort of disappears because A$\cdot$subject and residual variation cannot be disentangled: )    Demonstration  I will use toy data d2 generated in . The same webpage shows correct syntax for RM-ANOVA.  # Discarding between-subject factors and leaving only one within-subject factor d = d2[d2$Xb1=='CG' &amp; d2$Xb2 == 'f', c(1,4,6)]   (See reproducible version .)

Why?  This question is related to . If we try using Error(id) instead of Error(id/Xw1) in the example above, then Xw1 will get tested against Xw1:id interaction lumped together with the residual variation.  (The same issue arises in factorial RM-ANOVA with multiple within-subject factors, where each factor or interaction is tested against its own "error term" aka "error stratum". These error strata are always given by the corresponding interaction with the block/plot/subject variable id.) Can less retain colored output? Can I get less not to monochrome its output?  E.g., the output from git diff is colored, but git diff | less is not. I am looking for tutorials, articles or books containing theory of  in context of mathematical physics. Please suggest. How can I set the maximum draw type for multiple objects? Prove that some topology is not metrizable Are the decimal places in a CSS width respected? Implement multiple inheritance in Javascript Consider a set $A$ of $10$ integers, $A = \{a_1,a_2, \ldots ,a_{10}\}$. Prove that there is at least one subset of $A$ whose sum is divisible by $10$. Let $1, \omega, \dots, \omega^{n-1}$ be the roots of the equation $z^n-1=0$, so that the roots form a regular $n$-gon in the complex plane. I would like to calculate $$ \prod_{j \ne k} (\omega^j - \omega^k)$$  where the product runs over all $j \ne k$ with $0 \le j,k &lt; n$.    My attempt so far  Noting that if $k-j = d$ then $\omega^j - \omega^k = \omega^j(1-\omega^d)$, I can re-write the product as $$ \prod_{d=1}^{\lfloor n/2 \rfloor} \omega^{n(n-1)/2}(1-\omega^d)^n$$  I thought this would be useful but it hasn't led me anywhere.  Alternatively I could exploit the symmetry $\overline{1-\omega^d} = 1-\omega^{n-d}$ somehow, so that the terms in the product are of the form $|1-\omega^d|^2$. I tried this and ended up with a product which looked like $$\prod_{j=0}^{n-1} |1 - \omega^j|^n $$  (with awkward multiplicative powers of $-1$ left out). This appears to be useful, but calculating it explicitly is proving harder than I'd have thought.  The answer I'm expecting to find is something like $n^n$.    My motivation for this comes from Galois theory. I'm trying to calculate the discriminant of the polynomial $X^n+pX+q$. I know that it must be of the form $ap^n+bq^{n-1}$ for some $a,b \in \mathbb{Z}$, and putting $p=0,q=-1$, the polynomial becomes $X^n-1$. This has roots $1, \omega, \dots, \omega^{n-1}$, so that $(-1)^{n-1}b$ is (a multiple of) the product you see above. An expression for $a$ can be found similarly by setting $p=-1,q=0$. How can I serialize an object to JSON without properties that are null? To communicate with a REST interface on a private system, I need to send a JSON message from a trigger. I have a message object that has some fields, lists and a child object:  public class MerchantConfig {  public class MIDConfig {     public String mid;     public String currencyCode;     public String cardTemplateName;     public String paymentPanelRestriction;     public List&lt;String&gt; restrictedCountries;      public String paymentPanelRestrictionForCountries; }  public String merchantName; public String sopgTemplateName; public Integer dispositionTimeWindowInMinutes; public List&lt;String&gt; features; public Boolean activateImmediately; public List&lt;MIDConfig&gt; midConfiguration; }   I can serialize it to JSON using the built-in serializer:  String body = JSON.serializePretty([MerchantConfig instance]);   The result:  {   "sopgTemplateName" : null,   "midConfiguration" : [ {     "restrictionCountries" : [ "DE", "AT" ],     "paymentPanelRestrictionForCountries" : "MANDATORY",     "paymentPanelRestriction" : "OPTIONAL",     "mid" : "1000000001",     "currencyCode" : "EUR",     "cardTemplateName" : null   }, {     "restrictionCountries" : [ ],     "paymentPanelRestrictionForCountries" : "",     "paymentPanelRestriction" : "OPTIONAL",     "mid" : "1000000002",     "currencyCode" : "USD",     "cardTemplateName" : null   }, {     "restrictionCountries" : [ ],     "paymentPanelRestrictionForCountries" : "",     "paymentPanelRestriction" : "PROHIBITED",     "mid" : "1000000003",     "currencyCode" : "AUD",     "cardTemplateName" : null   } ],   "merchantName" : "Test Merchant",   "features" : [ XYZ ],   "dispositionTimeWindowInMinutes" : 10,   "activateImmediately" : true }   How can I serialize this object so that all properties that are null don't show up in the JSON string?   In this example, "sopgTemplateName" and all "cardTemplateName" properties are null and should not appear in the JSON string. The empty list "restrictionCountries" should still appear as an empty list, though.
