What's the easiest way to set up a LAMP stack? I set up a new VPS instance of Ubuntu and am wondering what the easiest way is to get up and running with a basic LAMP stack (i.e. which packages are required, which configuration options need to be tweaked, if any, etc.). Is there a built-in method to compare collections? I would like to compare the contents of a couple of collections in my Equals method.  I have a Dictionary and an IList.  Is there a built-in method to do this?  Edited: I want to compare two Dictionaries and two ILists, so I think what equality means is clear - if the two dictionaries contain the same keys mapped to the same values, then they're equal.

Sending an HTTP request using QNetworkAccessManager What's the best way to return multiple values from a function? I have a function where I need to do something to a string.  I need the function to return a boolean indicating whether or not the operation succeeded, and I also need to return the modified string.    In C#, I would use an out parameter for the string, but there is no equivalent in Python.  I'm still very new to Python and the only thing I can think of is to return a tuple with the boolean and modified string.  Related question: If your application requires a database and it comes with built in data, what is the best way to ship that application? Should I:   Precreate the SQLite database and include it in the .apk? Include the SQL commands with the application and have it create the database and insert the data on first use?   The drawbacks I see are:   Possible SQLite version mismatches might cause problems and I currently don't know where the database should go and how to access it. It may take a really long time to create and populate the database on the device.   Any suggestions? Pointers to the documentation regarding any issues would be greatly appreciated. Is it possible to install MySQL 5.5 or 5.6 on Ubuntu 16.04? I recently upgraded to Ubuntu 16.04. Unfortunately I need to work MySQL 5.5 or 5.6. I tried many solutions to have MySQL 5.5 or 5.6 run on Ubuntu 16.04 like this  . But none of them is working. Ubuntu detect the unmet dependencies but says "but it is not going to be installed" for 5.5 or says Package 'mysql-server-5.6' has no installation candidate...  Is it not possible to force an earlier version of MySQL on Ubuntu? Why is that? I have a query going that gets data for an ID for the last 3 months.  I need to tweak it so I get the highest value for each of the three months.  I've tried a couple of things with the aggregate function MAX, but I'm not getting anywhere.  I'm trying to get the max value for each of the past months ....  Here's the data from the query, currently sorted by date (asc):   ID      Date               Value 12410   01/03/2017 12:17    0.000178 12410   01/10/2017 11:36    0.000186 12410   01/17/2017 11:27    0.000189 12410   01/24/2017 13:09    0.000182 12410   01/31/2017 10:37    0.000169 12410   02/07/2017 11:03    0.000214 12410   02/14/2017 11:52    0.000176 12410   02/21/2017 10:51    0.000200 12410   02/28/2017 12:29    0.000194 12410   03/07/2017 08:39    0.000206   Here's the query:   select AnalysisID as "ID" , AnalysisDateTime as "Date", AnalysisValue as "Value" from AnalysisValueTbl where AnalysisID = 12410 and DatePart(m, AnalysisDateTime) = DatePart(m, DateAdd(m, -3, getdate())) and DatePart(yyyy, AnalysisDateTime) = DatePart(yyyy, DateAdd(m,-3, getdate())) or AnalysisID = 12410 and DatePart(m, AnalysisDateTime) = DatePart(m, DateAdd(m, -2, getdate())) and DatePart(yyyy, AnalysisDateTime) = DatePart(yyyy, DateAdd(m,-2, getdate())) or AnalysisID = 12410 and DatePart(m, AnalysisDateTime) = DatePart(m, DateAdd(m, -1, getdate())) and DatePart(yyyy, AnalysisDateTime) = DatePart(yyyy, DateAdd(m,-1, getdate())) order by AnalysisValue desc "is" operator behaves unexpectedly with integers Why does the following behave unexpectedly in Python?  &gt;&gt;&gt; a = 256 &gt;&gt;&gt; b = 256 &gt;&gt;&gt; a is b True           # This is an expected result &gt;&gt;&gt; a = 257 &gt;&gt;&gt; b = 257 &gt;&gt;&gt; a is b False          # What happened here? Why is this False? &gt;&gt;&gt; 257 is 257 True           # Yet the literal numbers compare properly   I am using Python 2.5.2. Trying some different versions of Python, it appears that Python 2.3.3 shows the above behaviour between 99 and 100.  Based on the above, I can hypothesize that Python is internally implemented such that "small" integers are stored in a different way than larger integers and the is operator can tell the difference. Why the leaky abstraction? What is a better way of comparing two arbitrary objects to see whether they are the same when I don't know in advance whether they are numbers or not? What is the proper usage of "not only... but also"? I'm trying to figure out how to use "not only... but also" properly. Basically, my goal is to combine two clauses by using "not only".  For negations, I've figured out two styles that both sound correct:   He knew that if he fractures his finger, not only would he not be able to compete in the water polo tournament, he would not be able to take the SAT on Monday, either. He knew that if he fractures his finger, neither would he be able to compete in the water polo tournament, nor would he be able to take the SAT on Monday.   However, I don't know how to form a sentence that does not include a negation while using "not only". Here are a few possibilities that I've considered:   Thanks to his remarkable performance on the SAT, not only was he accepted into Harvard, but he was also given a full scholarship. Thanks to his remarkable performance on the SAT, not only was he accepted into Harvard, but he was given a full scholarship. Thanks to his remarkable performance on the SAT, not only was he accepted into Harvard, he was given a full scholarship. Thanks to his remarkable performance on the SAT, not only was he accepted into Harvard, he was also given a full scholarship.   In those four possibilities, I'm varying the usage of "but" and "also" in the last clause.  What is the proper usage of "not only"? How to correctly assess the correlation between ordinal and a continuous variable? I'd like to estimate the correlation between:  An ordinal variable: subjects are asked to rate their preference for 6 types of fruit on a 1-5 scale (ranging from very disgusting to very tasty) On average subjects use only 3 points of the scale.  A continuous variable: the same subjects are asked to quickly identify these fruits, which results in an mean accuracy for the 6 fruits.
