I've been using the == operator in my program to compare all my strings so far. However, I ran into a bug, changed one of them into .equals() instead, and it fixed the bug.  Is == bad? When should it and should it not be used? What's the difference?
Is there a quick way to set an HTML text input (&lt;input type=text /&gt;) to only allow numeric keystrokes (plus '.')? The  (click on your number of helpful flags in your profile) is cool, however some posts have a gray background, some don't. What does it mean?  example: The range of $T^*$ is the orthogonal complement of $\ker(T)$ How can I prove that, if $V$ is a finite-dimensional vector space with inner product and $T$ a linear operator in $V$, then the range of $T^*$ is the orthogonal complement of the null space of $T$?  I know what I must do (for a $v$ in the range of $T^*$, I have to show that $v\perp w$ for every $w$ in $\ker(T)$ and then do the opposite), but I don't know how to show that this inner product is zero. How to add current date to cell if the rest of the cells (or some cells) in that row are edited, but only the first time? I have a column A4:A (heading = Date), and other columns after it B4:O.  I want column A to fill in today's date automatically when I fill in any other columns (some of these B4:O maybe empty, but most will be filled) in that row. But I only want that to happen the first time I edit any other columns within that row.

Keeping chunks loaded in minecraft I have built an iron farm somewhere far away from my actual spawn chunks in my single player world. In hindsight, this was a dumb idea, but I can't exactly change it anymore. I'd like to keep the thing running all the time, so I'm looking for a way to keep the chunks loaded.  I'm running minecraft 1.12.1, is it possible at the moment? I have looked at some chunk loader mods, but chicken chunk loader hasn't been updated yet, and the others simply didn't work.  I have tried moving the spawn chunks, but that hasn't done anything either.  Edit: I have worked this out with IronAnvil, and it ended up being a render setting in optifine which didn't load them correctly somehow. It has been working fine after I reset my optifine settings to default. What causes the portraits of Wizards to behave interactively? Does J.K. Rowling address how the interactive portraits work? Would a portrait painted after a Wizard/Witch died become interactive, or does the painting of the portrait have to take place during the Wizard/Witches lifetime? How to install program to all user accounts in Windows? I have several accounts on my home PC. I want to install a program for all user accounts, not just the one I used to perform the installation. How do I go about doing this?  I installed a program from an admin account, but it doesn't show up in the other local accounts.  I was not able to find any documentation on how to do this.  I have Windows 8.1, if that matters. A stochastic process is a process that evolves over time, so is it really a fancier way of saying "time series"? When to use Stateful session bean over Stateless session bean? Can I ignore coefficients for non-significant levels of factors in a linear model? After seeking clarification about linear model coefficients  I have a follow up question concerning non-signficant (high p value) for coefficients of factor levels.  Example: If my linear model includes a factor with 10 levels, and only 3 of those levels have significant p values associated with them, when using the model to predict Y can I choose to not include the coefficient term if the subject falls in one of the non-signficant level?  More drastically, would it be wrong to lump the 7 non-significant levels into one level and re-analyze? Is there an official Marvel Cinematic Universe viewing order? I'm planning on re-watching the currently-released 5 Marvel films prior to seeing The Avengers.  Have Marvel released any sort of official viewing order?  Captain America: The First Avenger seems like the hardest one for me to place in order with the rest.  It takes place prior to the other films, but has the greatest number of references to the other films.  So should it be watched first, or last?  The rest of them are relatively clear, as they're chronological in the order they're released, with the possible exception of The Incredible Hulk and Iron Man 2 happening at the same time.

When IE10 is set as my default browser, double-clicking an internet shortcut (*.url file) opens it in a new tab of the existing IE window. However, when it is not the default, every way of opening a *.url that I've tried brings up a new IE window per file. Is it possible to keep opening files in new tabs of the same IE window when it's not set as the default browser, and how?  What I've tried and it didn't work:   "C:\Program Files (x86)\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe" "C:\Dir1\file.url" (opens a new window every time) C:\Windows\System32\rundll32.exe "C:\Windows\System32\ieframe.dll",OpenURL C:\Dir1\file.url (opens the default browser) classexec "C:\Dir1\file.url" --class htmlFile (using  utility, opens a new window every time)   I use Windows 7 x64. Finding the convergence interval of $\sum_{n=0}^\infty\frac{n!x^n}{n^n}$. I want to find the convergence interval of the infinite series $\sum\limits_{n=0}^\infty \dfrac{n!x^n}{n^n}$. I will use the ratio test: if I call $u_n = \dfrac{n!x^n}{n^n}$, the ratio test says that, if the following is true for some values of $x$, the series will be convergent for these values of $x$: $$\lim_{n\to+\infty}\left|\frac{u_{n+1}}{u_n}\right|&lt;1$$ So, I will first calculate the value of $\left|\dfrac{u_{n+1}}{u_n}\right|$: $$\left|\dfrac{\dfrac{(n+1)!x^{n+1}}{(n+1)^{n+1}}}{\dfrac{n!x^n}{n^n}}\right|=\dfrac{(n+1)!|x|^{n+1}}{(n+1)^{n+1}}\times\dfrac{n^n}{n!|x|^n}=\frac{(n+1)n^n|x|}{(n+1)^{n+1}}=|x|\left(\frac{n}{n+1}\right)^n$$ So, $\lim\limits_{n\to+\infty}\left|\dfrac{u_{n+1}}{u_n}\right|$ becomes: $$\lim_{n\to+\infty}\left|\frac{u_{n+1}}{u_n}\right|=\lim_{n\to+\infty}|x|\left(\frac{n}{n+1}\right)^n=|x|\lim_{n\to+\infty}\left(\frac{n}{n+1}\right)^n$$ Now I must evaluate the value of $\lim\limits_{n\to+\infty}\left(\dfrac{n}{n+1}\right)^n$. For this, let $y = \left(\dfrac{n}{n+1}\right)^n$; so, instead of calculating $\lim\limits_{n\to+\infty}y$, I will first calculate $\lim\limits_{n\to+\infty}\ln y$: $$\lim_{n\to+\infty}\ln y=\lim_{n\to+\infty}\ln \left(\dfrac{n}{n+1}\right)^n=\lim_{n\to+\infty}n\ln\left(\frac{n}{n+1}\right) =\lim_{n\to+\infty}\frac{\ln\left(\frac{n}{n+1}\right)}{\frac{1}{n}}$$ Applying L'Hôpital's rule: $$\lim_{n\to+\infty}\frac{\ln\left(\frac{n}{n+1}\right)}{\frac{1}{n}} =\lim_{n\to+\infty}\frac{\frac{1}{n(n+1)}}{-\frac{1}{n^2}} =\lim_{n\to+\infty}\left(-\frac{n}{n+1}\right)=-1$$ Now, since we know that $\lim\limits_{n\to+\infty}\ln y = -1$, we have that: $$\lim_{n\to+\infty}y=\lim_{n\to+\infty}e^{\ln y} = e^{-1} = \frac{1}{e}$$. Substituting this back into the expression $\lim\limits_{n\to+\infty}\left|\frac{u_{n+1}}{u_n}\right| = |x|\lim\limits_{n\to+\infty}\left(\frac{n}{n+1}\right)^n$, we have that the limit of $\left|\dfrac{u_{n+1}}{u_n}\right|$ as $n\to+\infty$ is: $$\lim_{n\to+\infty}\left|\frac{u_{n+1}}{u_n}\right|=\frac{|x|}{e}$$ Therefore, the series will certainly be convergent for the values of $x$ for which $\dfrac{|x|}{e}&lt;1$, that is, $|x|&lt;e$. So, I know that the series is convergent for $-e &lt; x &lt; e$, but I have to test whether the series is convergent at $x = e$ or $x = -e$. That is, I have to test whether $\sum\limits_{n=0}^{\infty} \dfrac{n!e^n}{n^n}$ and $\sum\limits_{n=0}^{\infty} \dfrac{(-1)^nn!e^n}{n^n}$ are convergent. Since these limits don't approach zero, I know they are both divergent, but I'm not sure how to find the limits, because of the factorial function. Also, I can't use integral test here, because of the factorial. Probably I should use comparison test, but I haven't found any divergent series to which to compare it. Any hints? Thank you in advance.  Edit: Using the suggestion by Ragib Zaman in the answer below, since the Taylor polynomial $P_n(x)$ of $e^x$ at $a=0$ is $$e^x = 1 + x + \dfrac{x^2}{2!} + \cdots + \dfrac{x^n}{n!}+\cdots,$$ if we substitute $n$ for $x$ we see that $e^n&gt;\dfrac{n^n}{n!}$; therefore, $\dfrac{n!e^n}{n^n} &gt; 1$, and, thus, we show that $\sum\limits_{n=0}^{\infty} \dfrac{n!e^n}{n^n}$ is divergent, because its term doesn't approach zero. $\sum\limits_{n=0}^{\infty} \dfrac{(-1)^nn!e^n}{n^n}$ is also divergent, because, although the absolute value of the ratio between two successive terms, $|e|\left(\frac{n}{n+1}\right)^n$, approaches 1 as $n\to\infty$, it approaches 1 from values bigger than 1; therefore, the absolute value of a term is always greater than the absolute value of the previous term. The Follow Questions and Answers feature is now live across the Network We are happy to announce that the  follow question and answer feature is now live across the Network, including Stack Overflow, all Stack Exchange sites, and all Meta sites. (International Stack Overflow sites will have it turned on in a day or two once we have translations all set.) You can follow any question or answer (that you did not author) by clicking on the [follow] button that is shown in the menu immediately below the post (alongside the [share] button):    After you have followed a post, you will get inbox notifications for all new answers (in the case where you followed a question), comments, edits, and notices. You will not receive notifications for any action that you performed. As was mentioned in the earlier post, we are not making changes at this point to the notifications received by a post owner, or due to @mentions. The initial release had been planned to only include question following. Thanks to many folks who chipped in over the past few weeks, we are happy to release both question and answer following at the same time. These are available in both the regular and mobile views. We are still planning on two more related releases:  Follows profile tab and question listing filter: A tab for follows will be added to your user profile activity page. Each user will be able to view this tab that will provide a listing of followed questions and answers, with standard sorts, and the ability to unfollow from the listing. Users (with the exception of moderators and authorized staff) will not be able to see this information about other users (nor will it be made public in the API, SEDE, or data dumps). We will be renaming the Favorites feature to Bookmarks. As we mentioned in the preview post, the feature will be the same as Favorites, with the name and icon updated to more accurately represent user expectations and usage. And you will be able to both &quot;bookmark&quot; and &quot;follow&quot; a question.  We hope that this new feature will allow you to have better access to the content that you care about and want to keep tabs on. Update (June 11, 2020): The user profile tab and the rename of Favorites to Bookmarks have been released. How to set static IP address? I have configured network adapter of guest Ubuntu to work in a bridged mode so I could ssh to it from the host machine.   The problem is that the guest Ubuntu ip address keep changing.   Even though it changes  within a very short range 192.168.0.4-10 it is still takes time to configure Putty and other programs each time.  Is there a way to make the guest Ubuntu ip address to be static?  My guest OS has the full GUI. Why use Chef/Puppet over shell scripts? New to Puppet and Chef tools. Seems like the job that they are doing can be done with shell scripting. Maybe it was done in shell scripts until these came along.  I would agree they are more readable. But, are there any other advantages over shell scripts besides just being readable?
