Why are strings declared as an array "char word[5] = "hello" modifiable but not strings declared as pointer (char *word = "hello")?
Why do I get a segmentation fault when writing to a "char *s" initialized with a string literal, but not "char s[]"?
Prevent Photos app on OSX from launching when plugging in device The Photos app opens whenever I plug in my phone.    How can this be prevented?  I have seen many solutions for the old iPhoto app that involve changing the "Connecting camera opens" option, but the new app has no such option. Call Servlet and invoke Java code from JavaScript along with parameters PTR record won`t update Wrong numeration in toc longer then one page I tried anything I could find with \cleardoublepage and \newpage and so on; mostly they use \addcontentsline.

Okay, so I think I have a decent enough sample, taking into account the 20:1 rule of thumb: a fairly large sample (N=374) for a total of 7 candidate predictor variables.   My problem is the following: whatever set of predictor variables I use, the classifications never get better than a specificity of 100% and a sensitivity of 0%. However unsatisfactory, this could actually be the best possible result, given the set of candidate predictor variables (from which I can't deviate).   But, I couldn't help but think I could do better, so I noticed that the categories of the dependent variable were quite unevenly balanced, almost 4:1. Could a more balanced subsample improve classifications? Does there exist a surjective homomorphism from $(\mathbb R,+)$ to $(\mathbb Q,+)$ ? Does there exist a surjective homomorphism from $(\mathbb R,+)$ to $(\mathbb Q,+)$ ?  ( I know that there 'is' a   'surjection' , but I don't know whether any surjective homomrophism from $\mathbb R$ to $\mathbb Q$ exist or not . Please help . Thanks in advance ) Combinatorics Question Asking How Many Integer Solutions Given Different Restrictions How many integer solutions of $x_1 + x_2 + x_3 + x_4 = 28$ are there with:  (a) $0 ≤ x_i ≤ 12$?  (b) $−10 ≤ x_i ≤ 20$?  (c) $0 ≤ x_i, x_1 ≤ 6, x_2 ≤ 10, x_3 ≤ 15, x_4 ≤ 21$?  \ \  My attempts (I was really only able to solve part (a) but I would appreciate if you could check my work for this one as well):  (a) First I took the total number of integer solutions with no restrictions: There would be ${28+3\choose 3}$ = ${31\choose 3}$ total solutions with no restrictions.   Then I used the inclusion exclusion principle and knew I would have to subtract [P(A) + P(B) + P(C) + P(D)] where A --> $x_1$ is greater than or equal to 13, ..., D--> $x_4$ is greater than or equal to 13. The probabilities of all these cases would equal ${15+3\choose 3}$ = ${18\choose 3}$ because once we assign 13 to one of the $x_i$ there would be $28 - 13 = 15$ remaining to distribute among the $x_i$ values. We would also need to choose which of the $x_i$ to give the 13 to so we would multiply the ${18\choose 3}$ by ${4\choose 1}$ = ${4\choose 1}{18\choose 3}$  We would then have to add back, since we "oversubtracted", the case in which there is an intersection between two of the $x_i$ or in other words two of the $x_i$ receive 13 or more. P$(A\bigcap B)$ = $28-2(13) = 2$ remaining to distribute among the $x_i$ values. So we would also have to choose which of the $x_i$ to give the 13 to so we would have ${4\choose 2}$ ways to choose them. So there would be ${4\choose 2}{2+3\choose 3}$ = ${4\choose 2}{5\choose 3}$ solutions in this case.   Thus the number of solutions would be: ${31\choose 3} - {4\choose 1}{18\choose 3} + {4\choose 2}{5\choose 3}$.  I'm not sure if this is correct and I'm really stuck on b and c so I would appreciate any help or feedback. Thank you! How can I combine two plots? Is it lenses which make your photographs, not camera bodies? Note: I will expand this question with more specific points when I have my own internet connection and more time (we're moving in, so I'm at a friend's house).  This question is broad, involved, and to some degree subjective.  (I started out as a physics-only student, but eventually decided to add a mathematics major. I am greatly interested in mathematics; the typical curriculum required for physics students is not deep or thorough enough; mathematics is more general (that means work!); and it only requires a few more classes. Naturally, I enjoy  immensely.)  This question asks mainly of undergraduate-level study, but feel free to discuss graduate-level study if you like.  Please do not rush your answer or try to be comprehensive. I realize the StackOverflow model rewards quick answers, but I would rather wait for a thoughtful, thorough (on a point) answer than get a fast, cluttered one. (As you probably know,  produces clear, useful writing; and a properly-done comprehensive answer would take more than a reasonable amount of time and effort.) If you think an overview is necessary, that is fine.  For a question this large, I think the best thing to do is focus on a specific area in each answer.    Update: To Sklivvz, Cedric, Noldorin and everyone else: I had to run off before I could finish, but I wanted to say I knew I would regret this; I was cranky and not thinking clearly, mainly from not eating enough during the day. I am sorry for my sharp responses and for not waiting for my reaction to pass. I apologize.  Re: Curricula:   Please note that I am not asking about choosing your own curriculum in college or university. I did not explicitly say that, but several people believed that was my meaning. I will ask more specific questions later, but the main idea is how a physics student should study mathematics (on his or her own, but also by choosing courses if available) to be a competent mathematician with a view to studying physics.  I merely mentioned adding a mathematics major to illustrate my conclusion that physics student need a deeper mathematical grounding than they typically receive.   And now I have to run off again. How to make crs transformation of a QgsVectorLayer? I need to transform QgsVectorLayers in python from one crs into another crs. By googling I found the following solution (), which works for points only:  crsSrc = QgsCoordinateReferenceSystem(4326)    # WGS 84 crsDest = QgsCoordinateReferenceSystem(32633)  # WGS 84 / UTM zone 33N xform = QgsCoordinateTransform(crsSrc, crsDest) pt1 = xform.transform(QgsPoint(18,5))   Is there a way to make a crs transformation of an entire layer? How can I deal with "Low on Space" messages on my Android? I keep getting the "Low on Space: Application data space is low. To free up" [the rest is cut off] message.

Installing QGIS with ECW support on Mac? I bought a imac recently and I tried to install qgis: without success! It is not possible to read the raster files.  I installed GDAL ECW plugin, but it is necessary to copy and paste another file from  ERDAS ECW/JPEG2000 following this instruction.  "VERY IMPORTANT POST-INSTALL  You MUST download and install the ECW SDK yourself. I don't have the means to enforce export restrictions. I'm sorry, but installation is a manual process for now:  Go to . Select "ERDAS ECW/JPEG2000 SDK" from the Product popup. Click on the MacOSX line, then the Download Now link.  Open the downloaded disk image and run the installer. It will install into the top of your boot drive, /Intergraph. Dig into this folder to Desktop_Read-Only/redistributable/libstdc++.

Thanks! Resize image in Python without losing EXIF data I need to resize jpg images with Python without losing the original image's EXIF data (metadata about date taken, camera model etc.). All google searches about python and images point to the PIL library which I'm currently using, but doesn't seem to be able to retain the metadata. The code I have so far (using PIL) is this:  img = Image.open('foo.jpg') width,height = 800,600 if img.size[0] &lt; img.size[1]:     width,height = height,width  resized_img = img.resize((width, height), Image.ANTIALIAS) # best down-sizing filter resized_img.save('foo-resized.jpg')   Any ideas? Or other libraries that I could be using? Word for "reading carefully" Sometimes we read books rather quickly and don't give them much (or any) thought, so the action 'reading' does not necessarily imply that we have given enough thoughts to any book we read.   Is there a word that describes reading a book with great care; usually but necessarily slowly over a long period of time. How to evaluate potential advisers on grounds other than their research/publications? While accepting an offer to grad school, one is basically entering into a lasting relationship with one's adviser - most likely, someone whom the applicant has never met before, and the only exposure has been through the potential adviser's website/publications. It is in the interest of both parties to ensure (to the greatest possible extent) that there are no personal/professional traits of either that hamper the formation of a pleasant working relationship - no-one would want to go through the ordeal of having to change advisers midway!  While the faculty has a chance to have a good look at the applicant's profile as well as his motivations (through his grades and SOP), the applicant doesn't have a similar opportunity. So, I'm interested to know what parameters can be used to gauge a potential fit. I've thought of the following:   Past students:  Did anyone ever drop out/change advisers midway, and if so, for what reasons? These would be a bit hard to find though, as I don't expect the faculty concerned would list them on their website. It would be great if anyone could let me know how to find out the list of incoming students to a department for any year. Publication rate, taking into account the venues where they were accepted. Time taken to graduate - though I accept this is more dependent on the student, a median figure should be telling ... What they did post Ph.D. - did anyone get tenure if they went into academia, or is almost everyone unable to break out of being a post-doc?  Tenure status: I'm a bit unsure about this, so wanted the community's opinions about it. Just so that I'm clear, I'm only trying to calibrate the applicant's expectations about the working style of his potential adviser - and hence need to know to what extent are the following "typical" assumptions valid.  Tenured professor  A full professor is more likely to get grant funding, hence less time spent on TAship - but could also mean less time/effort spent on interactions with students (either being busy with other projects/talks, or due to more commitments to family at that age).  Tenure-track faculty (Assistant profs)  More likely to be young and energetic, and could translate to more time spent on one-to-one discussions with grad students - but funding may prove to be an issue, and may have to be on TA for a longer period.   What other factors would be relevant in this matter, and to what extent am I correct/incorrect in either the factors considered, or for undertaking this exercise at all?
