How to make a right-associative infix operator?

I found a solution. Scala reference says in section 6.12.3 Infix Operations: The associativity of an operator is determined by the operator’s last character. Operators ending in a colon ‘:’ are right-associative. All other operators are left-associative. Therefore it was enough to rename >> to >>:. It took me some time to realize that while … Read more

What is the difference between array_udiff_assoc() and array_diff_uassoc()?

Javascript doesn’t have “associative arrays” the way you’re thinking of them. Instead, you simply have the ability to set object properties using array-like syntax (as in your example), plus the ability to iterate over an object’s properties. The upshot of this is that there is no guarantee as to the order in which you iterate … Read more

How to pass an associative array as argument to a function in Bash?

I had exactly the same problem last week and thought about it for quite a while. It seems, that associative arrays can’t be serialized or copied. There’s a good Bash FAQ entry to associative arrays which explains them in detail. The last section gave me the following idea which works for me: function print_array { … Read more
