Which is better fread() or read()?
What is the difference between read() and fread()?
How to peel hard boiled eggs easily? This is one of the most annoying duties in the kitchen, for me.  What are yours tips and tricks to peel hard boiled eggs easily? How do I force TeX to completely use the 1st column before writing to the second column?  Right now I dont have enough content to fill one whole page. So the left and right columns are equally filled, leaving 25% symmetrical empty page at bottom. How do I fill the left column first, and then the right?  \documentclass{article}  \usepackage{multicol} \usepackage[scale=0.9]{geometry} \usepackage{amssymb} \renewcommand{\labelitemi}{\tiny$\blacksquare$} \begin{document} \begin{multicols}{2}      %lots of text goes here  \end{multicols} \end{document} NSWindow Mac App Store like Title Bar Given two coprime integers, find multiples of them that differ by 1 I'll describe the problem with an example.  Find integers $n$ and $m$ such that $n\cdot13 + m\cdot101 = 1$. This is the same as solving the equation $n\cdot13 \equiv 1 \pmod {101}$  I'm revising for a maths exam in a few days and it seems like a lot of the questions and examples rely on an ability to solve this type of problem. I can't seem to find a method in my notes, the solutions just get plucked out of thin air! What is a neat way of doing it on pen and paper with a calculator? Do professors care about their rating on websites such as RateMyProfessor or Koofers? I am wondering if a professor is already an Associate Professor, do they still care about their reputation in the eyes of the department considering tenureship is already granted? How to make pipes work with Runtime.exec()? Which external Javascript libraries work with Lightning Locker Service? Components often seem to work with external libraries until the Locker Service is enabled. What libraries work with locker service enabled and where can I go to find out? Reserved words as names or identifiers Is there any tricky way to use Java reserved words as variable, method, class, interface, package, or enum constant names? I am developing a set of scripts, which I want to be present for all users, when I set up a server. But I don't want them in the standard locations like /usr[/local]/[bin],[sbin] etc.  Is there some existing convention for where such scripts should be placed? How can I view the camera through an object as a material in Cycles? I have a small question regarding using sudo with output redirect &gt;. To enable IP forwrding, someone can use the command:  echo 1 &gt; /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward   Executing this command will give permission denied as it requires root privileges. However, executing the same command with sudo gives also permission denied error! It seems that output redirect &gt; does not inherit the permissions of the preceding command echo. Is this right?  As a workaround I do:  echo 1 | sudo tee /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward   Is this the best way to do it? Am I missing something?  Please, note that this is an example and it applies to all commands that use output redirect. Let $A$ be a commutative ring and $S$ a multiplicative closed subset of $A$. If $A$ is a PID, show that $S^{-1}A$ is a PID.   I've taken an ideal $I$ of $S^{-1}A$ and I've tried to see that is generated by one element; the ideal $I$ has the form $S^{-1}J$ with $J$ an ideal of $A$. $J$ is generated by one element but I can't see why $I$ has to be generated by one element, maybe I'm wrong. I would like to align the view straight on to a face, perpendicular to the normal. How do I align the 3D viewport to the face of a mesh? Guaranteed lifetime of temporary in C++? Does C++ provide a guarantee for the lifetime of a temporary variable that is created within a function call but not used as a parameter?  Here's an example class:  class StringBuffer { public:     StringBuffer(std::string &amp; str) : m_str(str)     {         m_buffer.push_back(0);     }     ~StringBuffer()     {         m_str = &amp;m_buffer[0];     }     char * Size(int maxlength)     {         m_buffer.resize(maxlength + 1, 0);         return &amp;m_buffer[0];     } private:     std::string &amp; m_str;     std::vector&lt;char&gt; m_buffer; };   And here's how you would use it:  // this is from a crusty old API that can't be changed void GetString(char * str, int maxlength);  std::string mystring; GetString(StringBuffer(mystring).Size(MAXLEN), MAXLEN);   When will the destructor for the temporary StringBuffer object get called?  Is it:   Before the call to GetString? After GetString returns? Compiler dependent?   I know that C++ guarantees that a local temporary variable will be valid as long as there's a reference to it - does this apply to parent objects when there's a reference to a member variable?  Thanks. Proof of $\int_{[0,\infty)}pt^{p-1}\mu(\{x:|f(x)|\geq t\})d\mu(t)=\int_{[0,\infty)}\mu(\{x:|f(x)|^p\geq s\})d\mu(s)$ Let $({\Bbb R},{\mathcal A},\mu)$ be the measure space where ${\mu}$ is the Lebesgue measure.  Assume that $\int_{\Bbb R}|f|^pd\mu&lt;\infty$ ($p\geq1$). There is an exercise for proving that       $$\int_{[0,\infty)}pt^{p-1}\mu(\{x:|f(x)|\geq t\})d\mu(t)=\int_{[0,\infty)}\mu(\{x:|f(x)|^p\geq s\})d\mu(s).$$   If one formally let $s=t^p$, then $ds=pt^{p-1}dt$ and one would immediately get the equality above. However, how can I justify it rigorously in the sense of Lebesgue integration?    [Edited] What puzzles me is that I have the "change of variable" theorem for Riemann integration, but all the integrations here are in the Lebesgue sense. Unless one has shown that the integrands are also Riemann integrable, how can I directly use "change of variable"? How much should a "button of Cure Light Wounds" cost (should it be available at all?) I couldn't find anything about Ubuntu acting as a  receiver or sender.   Can it work at all? Are there hardware prerequisites? Is WiFi a requirement or can it work over LAN or another kind of network connection? WiFi direct seems to be a necessary requirement, is it a sufficient one? (i.e. if a system supports WiFi direct does that mean it supports Miracast?) Are there differences in support between receiving/sending? How is the latency? (compared to the competition, i.e. VNC, commercial Miracast devices, etc.) How do I actually use it, if it's difficult?   Specifically, I plan to use it together with an Android phone (4.x Jelly Bean). Is there a program to mount all of my drives automatically? Is the ideal $(2,X+1)\subset\Bbb{Z}[X]$ prime, maximal or neither? I'm currently considering the ideal $(2,X+1)\subset\Bbb{Z}[X]$. I'm trying to figure out if this is a prime ideal, a maximal ideal, or neither. So far I have attempted to look at the quotient ring $\Bbb{Z}[X]/(2,X+1)$. I know that if this quotient ring is a field, then our ideal is maximal, since $\Bbb{Z}[X]$ is commutative. However I'm stuck on how I should be viewing this quotient ring. I've seen examples like this:   public class MaxSeconds {    public static final int MAX_SECONDS = 25; }   and supposed that I could have a Constants class to wrap constants in, declaring them static final. I know practically no Java at all and am wondering if this is the best way to create constants.
