I have a question about the passage.  Is the word "such" a pronoun and what does it refer to?     Had there been an axe handy, a poker, or any weapon that would have gashed a hole in his father’s breast and killed him, there and then, James would have seized it. Such were the extremes of emotion that Mr. Ramsay excited in his children’s breasts by his mere presence; standing, as now, lean as a knife, narrow as the blade of one, grinning sarcastically, not only with the pleasure of disillusioning his son and casting ridicule upon his wife, who was ten thousand times better in every way than he was (James thought), but also with some secret conceit at his own accuracy of judgement.    from the part 1 of the novel "To the Lighthouse" by Virginia Woolf.
Here's the context       "Her heart leaping into her throat, she tiptoed into the salon. Such was her astonishment at seeing Mike chatting with her boss that she leaned against the wall, incapable of making another move."   Is this a phrase or what? Could it be used in other forms as well?

Examples:  // imaginary numbers std::complex&lt;long double&gt; operator "" _i(long double d) // cooked form {      return std::complex&lt;long double&gt;(0, d);  } auto val = 3.14_i; // val = complex&lt;long double&gt;(0, 3.14)  // binary values int operator "" _B(const char*); // raw form int answer = 101010_B; // answer = 42  // std::string std::string operator "" _s(const char* str, size_t /*length*/)  {      return std::string(str);  }  auto hi = "hello"_s + " world"; // + works, "hello"_s is a string not a pointer  // units assert(1_kg == 2.2_lb); // give or take 0.00462262 pounds   At first glance this looks very cool but I'm wondering how applicable it really is, when I tried to think of having the suffixes _AD and _BC create dates I found that it's problematic due to operator order. 1974/01/06_AD would first evaluate 1974/01 (as plain ints) and only later the 06_AD (to say nothing of August and September having to be written without the 0 for octal reasons). This can be worked around by having the syntax be 1974-1/6_AD so that the operator evaluation order works but it's clunky.   So what my question boils down to is this, do you feel this feature will justify itself? What other literals would you like to define that will make your C++ code more readable?    Updated syntax to fit the final draft on June 2011 What are bitwise operators? I'm someone who writes code just for fun and haven't really delved into it in either an academic or professional setting, so stuff like these bitwise operators really escapes me.  I was reading an article about JavaScript, which apparently supports bitwise operations. I keep seeing this operation mentioned in places, and I've tried reading about to figure out what exactly it is, but I just don't seem to get it at all. So what are they? Clear examples would be great! :D  Just a few more questions - what are some practical applications of bitwise operations? When might you use them? Regarding the ellipsoid computed by using the "lifting step" I need your expertise in understanding and hopefully solving the following problem:  Let $C \subset \mathbb{R}^d$, and lets assume that $C$ is not centrally symmetric, thus when computing the $MVEE(C)$ (i.e the minimum volume enclosing ellipsoid), they use the following "lifting step":  $$ C^\prime = \left\lbrace \pm \begin{bmatrix} x\\ 1 \end{bmatrix} \middle| x \in C \right\rbrace,$$ where $C^\prime$ is centrally symmetric.  It is proven that for any $\varepsilon &gt; 0$, $MVEE(C^\prime) \cap \Pi$ is a $(1 + \varepsilon)$-approximation to $MVEE(C) \times \left\lbrace 1 \right\rbrace$, where $\Pi = \left\lbrace x \in \mathbb{R^{d+1}} \middle| x_{d+1} = 1 \right\rbrace$.  Let $G \in \mathbb{d \times d}$ be an invertible matrix, let $ v \in \mathbb{R}^d$ such that the pair $(G,v)$ represents the matrix and the center of $MVEE(C)$ respectively. Let $\hat{G} \in \mathbb{R}^{(d + 1) \times (d + 1)}$ be an invertible matrix such that the pair $(\hat{G},\overset{\to}{0})$ represents the matrix and center of $MVEE(C^\prime)$ respectively.  Then, $\forall x \in MVEE(C)$ $$ \left| \left| \left[ x , 1 \right] \hat{G} \begin{bmatrix} x\\1 \end{bmatrix} \right| \right|_2 = (1 + \varepsilon) \cdot \left| \left| (x - v) G (x - v)^T \right| \right|_2 .$$  Regarding $x \not\in MVEE(C) $, then it is easy to see that the above term is not satisfied and moreover the right term is bigger or equal to the left term.  What I need to know is whether it possible the bound the right term by the left term (maybe because $MVEE(C) \times \left\lbrace 1 \right\rbrace \subseteq MVEE(C^\prime)$), i.e. $$ poly(d) \cdot \left| \left| \left[ x , 1 \right] \hat{G} \begin{bmatrix} x\\1 \end{bmatrix} \right| \right|_2 \geq (1 + \varepsilon) \cdot \left| \left| (x - v) G (x - v)^T \right| \right|_2 \ ?$$  Please Do correct if I am wrong and thanks in advance. I'm using listings and I want to extend a language with additional keywords for highlightning. I know there is an option morekeywords available, but that only works for a particular lstset declaration and I don't want to have to copy-paste all keywords into all listings. I've tried declaring the keywords as part of a command but that doesn't work (probably because the command is not expanded and I don't know how to fix that).  So is there any way of declaring a new language by copying an existing one and just adding more keywords? Downloading from Play Store gives error 491 When I try to download anything from the Play Store it shows error 491 and can't finish the download. I have a Samsung Galaxy S 7582. How do I fix this? How to change Status Bar text color in iOS Does the potential energy of a single object exist? I know that potential energy exists for a system of objects. But why? Is there no potential energy for a single object system? I assume that there is.  Consider the earth-object system. Suppose an external force lifts the object above the earth. Then the work done by it gets stored in the earth-object system as potential energy.Right?  Now, my question is that is the potential energy always zero for a single object system.   MY REASONING  If we consider the object only as the system and lift it above the Earth, we are doing positive work on it and filling it with energy and the gravitational field of the Earth is doing negative work on it and draining it of energy. Thus whenever the object is moving it has kinetic energy which is fine. But when it is not moving,i.e. when its weight is equal to the force applied by us, the net work done is zero and so the object should not have any kinetic energy. Does it have potential energy? what I want to do is this. I have an external hard disk drive, a SEAGATE expansion 1TB, you can take it a look here:  As you can see this is not a flash usb hard drive, it is a USB hard disk drive. What I want to do is installing Ubuntu in this external hard disk drive... BUT NOT PLACING THE GRUB ON MY C: DRIVE. In other words, I don't want to see the GRUB splash Window asking me every single time if I want to load Windows or Linux. I want my PC turn on or restart and go directly to Windows... BUT... I want to have Linux in my external USB hard disk drive How do I want to load Ubuntu then? Easy, when I restart my computer or just start it... in ASUS mother boards I have the possibility to select the boot device by pressing F8, and I get the boot menu. I want to turn on my computer, press F8, my mother board ask me what drive I want to use to load the Operating Sytem, I select the USB external hard disk drive where do I have Ubuntu, and bingo, I run Ubuntu. When I finish to use Ubuntu, I close it and turn off my computer. Later, I turn on my computer, and if I don't press F8, automatically load the hard disk drive C: and load Windows. My question about this, is what are the necessary steps to install the latest version from Ubuntu, doing exactly this. Not placing the GRUB in my C: hard disk drive, and installing it entirely in the external USB hard disk drive (normal one, not flash one). In Ubuntu 17.10 ubuntu upgraded Nautilus (File Browser) to version 3.26.0. New nautilus is not using file-roller anymore, it has  to an integrated compression mechanism.     This makes it complicated to create encrypted archives and/or different types compression archives that file-roller does provide.  How to make nautilus use file-roller as before?

The result set has no current row while using JDBC I am using the following code in selenium, but I am not able to retrieve data from database. I am getting the errors "The result set has no current row"  My code is   public class Auto {      public static void main(String[] args) throws InterruptedException, SQLException, ClassNotFoundException, InstantiationException, IllegalAccessException     {           Class.forName("com.microsoft.sqlserver.jdbc.SQLServerDriver");         System.out.println("Driver loaded");           Connection con=DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:sqlserver://192.168.*****\\SQLEXPRESS/*****_DW/EPS:****;user=******;password=******; ");          System.out.println("Driver loadedd");       java.sql.Statement stmt= con.createStatement();     ResultSet rs=stmt.executeQuery("select * from [*****_DW].[dbo].dim_grantee ");      System.out.println("Query executed");      while (rs.next());     {         String Name=rs.getString("NAME");          System.out.println("Name is");     }   } So I was taught that:  Kinetic Energy (of electron) = Energy (of photon) - Ionization Energy  If E(photon) = IE, then KE=0 of the electron.   What does this physically/theoretically mean?   My current thoughts/interpretation is that enough energy/force is applied to ionize the electron so it is 'sufficiently far' from the atom, and then I guess it just moves with whatever speed it is moving at with natural kinetic laws, since no more energy/force is being applied....?  Any clarifications would be greatly appreciated, thanks in advance. How to prevent the screen lock while watching video (Netflix, Youtube, Amazon Prime) in Ubuntu 17.10 In earlier Ubuntu versions like 16.04 and 17.04 while watching YouTube videos in full-screen mode, the screen would not get locked automatically.  In Ubuntu 17.10 while watching videos in browser, system is getting locked. So Ubuntu 17.10 is considering this scenario as user is not doing anything.  Kindly suggest a solution for that.
