@jack Programmers ignoring advice from the writers of the libraries they use is even more troublesome than finding an item in an array. — HMR 51 secs ago

"If I can always lock them in the same order I will never get a deadlock?" You are too optimistic. Programmers are humans and humans do make errors. A deadlock is something you want to avoid at all cost. If you can choose between the right tool and relying on nobody making a mistake, you should choose the tool — idclev 463035818 41 secs ago

then those languages don't use IEEE-754, because IEEE-754 requires 1/-0.0 = -∞ and 1/0.0 = +∞. Demo for Java, C++. See also Why is negative zero important? — phuclv 18 secs ago

@Anonymous sorry, didn't see that question till now. If you want to print only data at one index then try a normal for loop like for(int i = startIndex; i <= endIndex; i++) (if needed at all) and use the get(index) method of the list. Note that you might want to grab a tutorial on those basic things as that will make it easier for you to learn them instead of asking here. Also you might want to improve your searching skills as programmers will have to do a lot of searching for new stuff (new technologies, concepts etc.). — Thomas 37 secs ago

@RyanSingh hello and welcome. This site is not for suggestions, it's for answer to precise problems. Your question, as it stands, has too many possible answers to be on topic in here. You may have better luck on the Software Recommentadions StackExchange. — Federico klez Culloca 13 secs ago

Unfortunately asking for software recommendations is explicitly off-topic here. Please try Software Recommendations instead. — Filburt just now

Pro tip for php programmers. The documentation at php.net shows a right column with a list of information related to the page you're viewing. So, if you're viewing password_hash() you can see a link to password_verify() at the right. It's important to look around the docs when you use a function, and the list at the right makes it easy. — O. Jones 45 secs ago

Welcome to Stack Overflow. Please read Open Letter to Students with Homework Problems. You can't just dump your problem statement here and expect us to do it for you. It's also a good idea to take the tour, read about what's on-topic in the help center, and How to Ask. — Chris 53 secs ago

People can and do ask for homework help here, however this looks off-topic for stack overflow because: 3. Questions asking for homework help must include a summary of the work you've done so far to solve the problem, and a description of the difficulty you are having solving it. Please edit the question add this. Please, also read this Open letter to students with homework problems. — dbc 21 secs ago

@StephenC, SESE, I don't think it means what you think it means ;). My mind was blown when I learned there never was a software principle dictating a single return statement. But I should not have been surprised that Dijkstra was right all along and everyone simply misinterpreted him. — jaco0646 44 secs ago

Add that information to the question. However, you also need to specify how you expect to designate each set of symbols in the input to your grammar. S is probably the easiest, at least once you've resolved how you represent the elements of V. Mathematicians can get away with hand-waving; C programmers can't. — Jonathan Leffler 25 secs ago

Welcome to the site, unfortunately this is indeed something that is off-topic on Stack Overflow. Many sites on the network do not allow opinion-based questions (e.g. 'what's the best X for Y'). There are a couple of sites that may be appropriate, but you'd have to check their help pages on what's on-topic there. First, gamedev.stackexchange.com/help/on-topic, and Second, softwarerecs.stackexchange.com/help/on-topic. Otherwise, you can always ask on Quora or Reddit (or similar sites geared more toward discussions). — TylerH 56 secs ago

You create programmers hell by returning so different types from your function. In one branch you return an integer, in the other one a tuple. You'll have to deal with this inconsistency every time you use the function. — Matthias 26 secs ago

My take is that linked lists are not too bad. It's homework 2 in my data structures class. You can get a bare-bones linked list up and running with insert/delete pretty quickly. As it gets fully featured, closer to std::list, things do get hairier, but that's the case for any data structure. They get a much stronger understanding of heap use, they get to create the iterator pattern, and a couple other things. You're not wrong, it's a tough assignment, but they become better problem solvers and programmers because of it. — sweenish 30 secs ago

Questions asking us to recommend or find a book, tool, software library, tutorial or other off-site resource are off-topic for Stack Overflow as they tend to attract opinionated answers and spam. Instead, describe the problem and what has been done so far to solve it. You may be able to get help on the Software Recommendations Stack Exchange, but please read through their help center first to ensure your question is on topic there. — MattDMo 7 secs ago

Please carefully read this. It explains why questions like this one aren't suitable for this platform, and why asking for the answer in this manner is actively detrimental to your learning. Further, this blatant plagiarism is highly disrespectful to your professors and TAs (like myself). Instructors are putting in hours of work to adapt to online teaching in a deadly pandemic; the bare minimum of respect you can show them is to do the work yourself instead of cheating. — nanofarad 53 secs ago
