print out string instead of references
What's the simplest way to print a Java array?
How do I turn off some formats in GeoServer's WMS? I have published a couple of layers on my Geoserver.  To be complaint with the T&amp;C of my data provider, I need to block the access of some of those layers as Vector data. Hence I have already blocked the WFS services on these Layers.  I came to know that even on the WMS service, you can get Vector Data, if you use GeoRSS and some of the .   How do I block GeoRSS, SVG &amp; UTFGrid as formats in the WMS Service? The square root of a prime number is irrational Showing that $\int_0^\infty x^{-x} \mathrm{d}x \leq 2$. I know and understand the mean value theorem. But at the moment I don't have the intuition to understand the generalized mean value theorem     If $f$ and $g$ are continuous on the closed interval $[a,b]$ and differentiable on the open interval $(a,b)$, then there exists a point $c\in(a,b)$ where$$[f(b)-f(a)]g'(c)=[g(b)-g(a)]f'(c).$$If $g'$ is never zero on $(a,b)$, then the conclusion can be stated as$$\frac{f'(c)}{g'(c)}=\frac{f(b)-f(a)}{g(b)-g(a)}.$$   What is the intuition? And how can you prove this (generally) ? Do Stack Overflow and other Stack Exchange sites have an app I can use? I like using Stack Overflow (or any other Stack Exchange sites) and was wondering if there was an app I could install on my phone or other device that would allow me to use the site on-the-go or straight from my desktop.  Some systems to consider:   Windows 8 Android iPhone/iOS   What are some apps that I could install to my computer or phone to enhance my Stack Exchange experience? How to partition harddisk for Ubuntu 18.04 I want to partition my hard disk, but I don't have any other software running(like dual booted).  And I do not know how to do it. Can you send the instructions? Why does instanceof return false for some literals? &quot;foo&quot; instanceof String //=&gt; false &quot;foo&quot; instanceof Object //=&gt; false  true instanceof Boolean //=&gt; false true instanceof Object //=&gt; false false instanceof Boolean //=&gt; false false instanceof Object //=&gt; false  12.21 instanceof Number //=&gt; false /foo/ instanceof RegExp //=&gt; true  // the tests against Object really don't make sense  Array literals and Object literals match... [0,1] instanceof Array //=&gt; true {0:1} instanceof Object //=&gt; true  Why don't all of them? Or, why don't they all not? And, what are they an instance of, then? It's the same in FF3, IE7, Opera, and Chrome. So, at least it's consistent. Cancellation of Direct Products What is the role of NS records at the apex of a DNS domain? $ORIGIN example.com. ; not necessary, using this to self-document  $TTL 3600 @        IN     SOA   ns1.example.com. admin.example.com. (                       1970010100 7200 1800 1209600 300)  @        IN     NS   ns1.example.com. @        IN     NS   ns2.example.com.  @        IN     A    198.51.100.1 ns1      IN     A    198.51.100.2 ns2      IN     A    198.51.100.3  sub1     IN     NS   ns1.example.edu.  sub2     IN     NS   ns1.sub2 ns1.sub2 IN     A    203.0.113.1 ; inline glue record   The role of a NS record beneath the apex of a domain is well-understood; they exist to delegate authority for a subdomain to another nameserver. Examples of this above would include the NS records for sub1 and sub2. These allow the nameserver to hand out referrals for portions of the domain that it does not consider itself authoritative for.  The purpose of the NS records at the apex of a domain, ns1 and ns2 in this case, seem to be less understood by the internet at large. My understanding (which may not be holistic) is as follows:   They are not used by caching DNS servers in order to determine the authoritative servers for the domain. This is handled by , which is defined at the registrar level. The registrar never uses this information to generate the glue records. They  used to delegate authority for the entire domain to other nameservers. Trying to do so with software such as ISC BIND will not result in the "expected" referral behavior at all, as the nameserver will continue to consider itself authoritative for the zone. They are not used by the nameserver to determine whether it should return authoritative responses (AA flag set) or not; that behavior is defined by whether the software is told to be a master or a slave for the zone. Most nameserver software will quite happily serve apex NS records that disagree with the information contained by the upstream glue records, which will in turn cause well-known DNS validation websites to generate warnings for the domain.   With this being the case, what are we left with? Why are we defining this information if it doesn't appear to be consumed by caching DNS servers on the internet at large? "Me and my wife" or "my wife and me" Do I need to pay in full for hostel reservation to show proof of accommodation for a Schengen visa? I am applying for a Schengen visa to travel to Germany and one of the requirements is showing proof of accommodation. I booked all my hostels via hostelworld.com, but only paid the non-refundable deposit (a couple of dollars for each place) instead of the entire amount. I intend to pay the rest of it on arrival at the hostel (or cancel it and go CouchSurfing, thus saving money).  But for the visa application, will the non-refundable deposit be enough to show proof of accommodation?  The reason I ask is, I emailed one of the hostels requesting a document showing my name and accommodation confirmation, and they replied saying they could only give me such a document once I pay in FULL.  Is this how I'm supposed to book for all places?  Have I been doing it wrong all this while (by only paying the tiny non-refundable deposit instead of full hostel fare)? How do I resolve unmet dependencies after adding a PPA? What event log should I check for Hardware Changes What equipment and settings do I use for panning shots of moving objects? How do you go about getting great panning shots of things like cars and bicycles so that the background is nice and blurred but the target is sharp as can be. I have tried on many occasion to do panning shots and I just can't get the setup right.  What lens setup, shutter speed would be a good place to start? I'm trying to identify fantasy book series I encountered some time ago. Here are things I remember:   it was a fantasy setting but with some s-f elements; with many worlds and possibility to travel between them; resembling  setting a little, the two main races were non-human and probably hostile to each other,  a labyrinth (?), which somehow played an important role in the plot, a protagonist was some kind of emissary and was sent on a mission to another worlds  time period: 80s - 90s    Does anyone know what it is the name of the series? Volume calculation of truncated cones with elipses as base and top I wish to calculate the volumes of a truncated cone whith asymetry over all axes and ellipses as base and top - how do I do that?  I have height and radii of the corresponding ellipses. (I assume correctly I need the geometric means of the 2 radii describing the ellipsis.)  Kind Regards Let 'A' be a $2 \times 3$ matrix where as B be a $3 \times 2$ matrix if $\det(AB) = 4$ the find value of the $\det(BA)$  My attempt: I took A =  $$         \begin{bmatrix}         2 &amp; 0  &amp;0\\         0 &amp; 0  &amp;2\\         \end{bmatrix} $$  B= $$         \begin{bmatrix}         1 &amp; 0  \\         0 &amp; 0  \\         0 &amp; 1  \\         \end{bmatrix} $$  It satisfies given condition and I get $\det(BA)=0$   But I have not proved it  How do I prove that it is always zero (background)I am 12th grader and I know about adjoint,inverse,determinant,rank of a matrix and the other basics.  However I do NOT know about eigenvalues and eigenvectors. Is there a sorted collection type in .NET? I'm looking for a container that keeps all its items in order.  I looked at SortedList, but that requires a separate key, and does not allow duplicate keys.  I could also just use an unsorted container and explicitly sort it after each insert.  Usage:   Occasional insert Frequent traversal in order Ideally not working with keys separate from the actual object, using a compare function to sort. Stable sorting for equivalent objects is desired, but not required.  Random access is not required.   I realize I can just build myself a balanced tree structure, I was just wondering if the framework already contains such a beast. If $e^{itx_n}$ converges for every $t\in\mathbb R$, then does $x_n$ converge? I presented the following problem to some of my students recently (from Senior Mathematical Challenge- edited by Gardiner)  In the Fibonacci sequence $1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 55,\ldots$ each term after the first two is the sum of the two previous terms. What is the sum to infinity of the series: $$\frac{1}{2} + \frac{1}{4}+ \frac{2}{8} + \frac{3}{16} + \frac{5}{32} +\frac{8}{64} + \frac{13}{128} +\frac{21}{256} +\frac{34}{512}+ \frac{55}{1024} + \cdots$$  Now, I solved this using an infinite geometric matrix series (incorporating the matrix version of the relation $a_n= \frac{a_{n-1}}{2}+ \frac{a_{n-2}}{4}$), and my students, after much hinting on my part, googled the necessary string to stumble across Binet's formula (which allows one to split the series into two simple, if rather messy, geometrics). Both of these are good methods, but neither really seems plausible for a challenge set for 15-18 year olds under exam conditions. So how is one supposed to do it?
