What is a NullPointerException, and how do I fix it?
Are there expected dressing norms at faculty interviews? Will a casual tee-jeans be discouraged?  In the same vein, what is expected when a student visits the campus for an interview? How to compare two TeX codes and mark differences with color I would like to find easy tool, which compares two TeX codes and generates a PDF file of the first code, in which the differences from the second code are marked by a given color. I use winedt 7.0 under windows 7.  I just noticed that latexdiff provides what I need. As far as I understand it is included in Miktex. Is there an interface (menu commands) in winedt 7.0, which allow to work with latexdiff ?

Does being refused entry to Singapore mean I am now blacklisted? My friend who is an Indonesian citizen tried to enter Singapore this week and was refused entry at the Singapore Harbour Front Ferry Terminal by immigration.  This was his first trip overseas and is not used to international travel, so due to his inexperience and that he was excited to go to Singapore, he possibly made some mistakes on trying to be granted access into Singapore.   He was told he was to enter a Singapore address for his stay or a friend or relative he will stay with. He was only staying for one day and was going to catch the ferry back at night, so he had no plan to stay in Singapore and as such had no address to put. They then asked why he was traveling alone and that he should travel with somebody for his first trip. He told them he always travels alone in Indonesia and finds it easier to see and do things alone. He was then asked why he was entering Singapore and the reason he gave was to purchase some electronics which he cannot buy in Indonesia. They asked for how much money he had and they then advised that he did not have enough money to purchase the items he was after. They refused his entry and he was then escorted to a ferry and returned to Indonesia. His passport was not stamped and he was not fingerprinted.   He was given a Notice of Refusal of Entry which had the reason as "Being ineligible for the issue of a pass under current immigration policies" form on his departure. Also included on this form is his passport number etc. He was not advised of him being banned or a time frame that he cannot enter Singapore.  My questions are: Has he been banned or restricted to enter Singapore for a period of time? When entering countries including Singapore, does he need to tick the box stating he has been refused entry into another country? I am hoping to get my friend to Australia at the end of the year for a 10 day holiday and will this hinder his chance of getting a visa and entering Australia? Is the convex hull of closed set in $\mathbb R^{n}$ is closed? Is convex hull of closed set in $\mathbb R^{n}$ closed? Anonymous Internet browsing Could you please suggest me a good anonymous internet browsing application for Ubuntu? I have a box that I have extruded to the shape I want. Then I placed a cylinder so that it intersects the box. After that I deleted the bottom faces of both the cylinder and box.  Now what I want to do is delete the portion of the cylinder that is inside the box and join the nodes so that it is one object. I have already joined the meshes so I can select points/edges/faces from either shape. It seems like the easiest way would be to just put nodes where the edges of the cylinder and box intersect and then delete the parts I don't care about. I can't find a good way to do that though.  What's the best way to accomplish what I'm trying to do? How to add right-click (on desktop) to create text file functionality 16.04.2 Ubuntu GNOME How do I send a file as an email attachment using Linux command line? I've created a script that runs every night on my Linux server that uses mysqldump to back up each of my MySQL databases to .sql files and packages them together as a compressed .tar file.  The next step I want to accomplish is to send that tar file through email to a remote email server for safekeeping.  I've been able to send the raw script in the body an email by piping the backup text file to mailx like so:  $ cat mysqldbbackup.sql | mailx backup@email.com   cat echoes the backup file's text which is piped into the mailx program with the recipient's email address passed as an argument.  While this accomplishes what I need, I think it could be one step better, Is there any way, using shell scripts or otherwise, to send the compressed .tar file to an outgoing email message as an attachment?  This would beat having to deal with very long email messages which contain header data and often have word-wrapping issues etc. count vs length vs size in a collection From using a number of programming languages and libraries I have noticed various terms used for the total number of elements in a collection.  The most common seem to be length, count, and size.  eg.  array.length vector.size() collection.count   Is there any preferred term to be used? Does it depend on what type of collection it is? ie. mutable/immutable  Is there a preference for it being a property instead of a method? Why must we "avoid discussions in comments"? I've just started getting these messages:     Please avoid extended discussions in comments. Would you like to automatically move this discussion to chat?   Why should one avoid doing this? I think it adds to the site...  (Tagged  in more ways than one!) What do (lambda) function closures capture? I am totally stumped for what to do here, any help would be appreciated.   1) What happens if you apply the method of steepest descent to $f(x)=x_1^2+x_2^2+x_3^2$?  2)Lagrange multipliers method- Find the dimensions of the rectangular box open at the top of greatest internal volume, given the surface area of the five faces is $108 \, \mathbb{cm}^2$.  Thanks Show that  the  alternating  group  $A_4$  of all even permutations of $S_4$ does not contain a  subgroup of order $6$.   For me am thinking to write all elements of $A_4$ and trying to find every cyclic subgroup generated by each element of $A_4$, then I have to check whether there exist such a subgroup or not! This is a long procedure for me, I ask if there is a short way to do this. This is probably pretty basic, but to save me an hour or so of grief can anyone tell me how you can work out the number of bits required to represent a given positive integer in Java?  e.g. I get a decimal 11, (1011). I need to get the answer, 4.  I figured if I could work out how to set all the bits other than the most significant bit to 0, and then >>> it, I'd get my answer. But... I can't. Down vote changed to up vote caused reputation meter to pass daily maximum I just experienced a minor visual bug.  I had an answer that earned 2 down votes and 22+ upvotes, earning me the daily maximum of +200. Upon making some edits to the answer at the behest of the comments, one of the users who down voted changed their vote. Now my reputation meter shows that I gained +202 for the day.    This correctly did NOT affect my reputation, as I still only gained 200, so it is merely a minor display bug.  This appears in the achievements drop down and my reputation tab on my profile. Derivation of a generalization of Mertens' Third Theorem. One of Mertens' Theorems states $$\prod_{p\le x}(1-\frac{1}{p})\sim \frac{e^{-\gamma}}{\ln(x)}.$$ I have seen a generalized version that states  $$\prod_{m&lt;p\le x}(1-\frac{m}{p})\sim \frac{c(m)}{(\ln(x))^m},$$ where $m$ is a positive integer and $c(m)$ is a real number that depends on $m$. How can I derive this result? Is there a way to find what the values of $c(m)$ are? Thank you very much. Every time I try to create a table using MySQL Workbench 6.3 CE it adds "broken" comments at the end of the script.  Example:  I am trying to create a table called "user". This is what the table should look like:   However when I click the apply button, the script generates incorrectly:  CREATE TABLE `user` (   `userid` INT NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT COMMENT '',   `record_status` INT NOT NULL DEFAULT 1 COMMENT '',   `createdby` VARCHAR(75) NOT NULL COMMENT '',   `createddate` DATETIME NOT NULL COMMENT '',   `updatedby` VARCHAR(75) NULL COMMENT '',   `updateddate` DATETIME NULL COMMENT '',   `username` INT NOT NULL COMMENT '',   `password` VARCHAR(75) NULL COMMENT '',   `firstname` VARCHAR(75) NULL COMMENT '',   `lastname` VARCHAR(75) NULL COMMENT '',   `email` VARCHAR(75) NULL COMMENT '',   `facebook_userid` VARCHAR(75) NULL COMMENT '',   `email_verified` VARCHAR(75) NULL COMMENT '',   PRIMARY KEY (`userid`, `username`)  COMMENT '');   The comment in this line should not be there, so the code should be:   PRIMARY KEY (`userid`, `username`));   and the code executes when I paste it into an editor and remove this comment. However I create massive databases daily. (Each with +- 15 tables). I can't keep doing this for each table as it is time consuming.  How can I disable this feature that adds the comments to the script? I don't need them in my databases How many solutions are there to $x_1 + x_2 + ... + x_5 = 21$? How many solutions are there to the equation      $x_1 + x_2 + x_3 + x_4 + x_5 = 21$    where $x_1, i = 1,2,3,4,5$ is a nonnegative integer such that $0 ≤ x_1 ≤ 3, 1 ≤ x_2 &lt; 4$, and $x_3 ≥ 15$?  I have correctly completed the previous parts of the question but am having trouble with this particular restriction.  The total number of solutions to the equation is $C(25,21) = 12650$.  I have tried to do each restriction individually:  For $0 ≤ x_1 ≤ 3$, I solved this by subtracting the number of solutions when $x_1 ≥ 4$ from the total number of solutions. This is $C(25,21) - C(21,17) = 5985$.  For $1 ≤ x_2 &lt; 4$, I have $C(24,20) - C(21,17) = 5985$.  For $x_3 ≥ 15$, I have $C(10,6) = 210$.  However, the restriction is when these are all together. I am not sure how to proceed. The answer is $106$. Closed unit interval is connected proof
