What is AngularJS and Angular ?

AngularJS is an open-source, JavaScript-based, front-end web application framework for dynamic web app development. ... Although Angular 2 was a complete rewrite of AngularJS

AngularJS is dying, but not Angular. Even three years after they announced Angular, the naming of the frameworks is cause for confusion. So yes, AngularJS is dying. As soon as Google announced that Angular was going to be a complete re-write, with no backwards compatibility, AngularJS began to die.

Starting with Angular ? So do you know Angular CLI ?

Angular now has its own CLI (command line interface), which will do most of the routine operations for you. To start using Angular, we have to install it.
It requires Node 6.9.0 or higher as well as NPM 3 or higher.

Once they are both installed, we are going to install Angular CLI by running the following:

npm install -g @angular/cli

Staring with Angular ? So do you know TypeScript ?

If you don't have any idea about typescript then don't have worry about that. Your javascript knowledge is enough to learn that.

TypeScript is a typed super set of JavaScript which has been built and maintained by Microsoft and chosen by the AngularJS team for development.

It has (.ts) extension.

Starting with Angular

Angular is a new version of the AngularJS framework, developed by Google. It comes with a complete rewrite, and various improvements including optimized builds and faster compile times.

Angular is a fully integrated framework that allows you to start working on your project quickly without thinking about which libraries to select and how to deal with everyday problems. I think of Angular as being for the front-end, as RoR is for the back-end.

Find the user who dropped database table

First, let us drop the table by following command.

DROP TABLE TempTable
GO

Now the challenge is how to find out who dropped the table which was created in the database.

There is a simpler way to do the same.

Right click on the database then Go to Reports -> Standard Reports -> Schema Changes History.

Once you open Schema Changes History, you will see a report. Over there, expand any object which you are interested in and you will see necessary details associated with the same.

For ex., I am interested in TempTable and you can see it shows the three rows of schema change. You can also see the name of the user and time when he/she dropped the table.

What is delegates in c#?

C# delegates are similar to pointers to functions, in C or C++. A delegate is a reference type variable that holds the reference to a method. The reference can be changed at runtime.

Delegates are especially used for implementing events and the call-back methods. All delegates are implicitly derived from the System.Delegate class.

A delegate can be declared using delegate keyword followed by a function signature as shown below.

<access modifier> delegate < return type> <delegate_name>(<parameters>)

The following example declares a Print delegate. 

public delegate void Print(int value)

Instantiating Delegates

Once a delegate type is declared, a delegate object must be created with the new keyword and be associated with a particular method. When creating a delegate, the argument passed to the new expression is written similar to a method call, but without the arguments to the method.

Example:

class Program
{
    // declare delegate
    public delegate void Print(int value);

    static void Main(string[] args)
    {
        // Print delegate points to PrintNumber
        Print printDel = PrintNumber;
          
        printDel(100000);
        printDel(200);

        // Print delegate points to PrintMoney
        printDel = PrintMoney;

        printDel(10000);
        printDel(200);
    }

    public static void PrintNumber(int num)
    {
        Console.WriteLine("Number: {0,-12:N0}",num);
    }

    public static void PrintMoney(int money)
    {
        Console.WriteLine("Money: {0:C}", money);
    }
}
 

Output:

Number: 10,000 
Number: 200 
Money: $ 10,000.00 
Money: $ 200.00

    Here, we have declared Print delegate that accepts int type parameter and returns void. In the Main() method, a variable of Print type is declared and assigned a PrintNumber method name. Now, invoking Print delegate will in-turn invoke PrintNumber method. In the same way, if the Print delegate variable is assigned to the PrintMoney method, then it will invoke the PrintMoney method.

Firefox dumps Google for search, signs on with Yahoo

Google's 10-year run as Firefox's default search engine in the US is over. Yahoo wants more search traffic, and a deal with Mozilla will bring it.

Now users can search the web in 1997 with a browser from 2014. :)

The change will come to Firefox users in the US in December, and later Yahoo will bring that new "clean, modern and immersive search experience" to all Yahoo search users. In another part of the deal, Yahoo will support the Do Not Track technology for Firefox users, meaning that it will respect users' preferences not to be tracked for advertising purposes.


Mozilla has been working with Yahoo for months on the partnership, and relations with Yahoo's new CEO have been good, Baker said.
