Generics in Java, Standard Values



Ok, so I was reading the Java online tutorial for generics and I found this:







E - Element (used extensively by the Java Collections Framework)

K - Key

N - Number

T - Type

V - Value

S,U,V etc. - 2nd, 3rd, 4th types







I have seen a lot of methods in Java use the "E" notation but I was looking for a method that uses the "K", key notation. Anyone can help please?

  1. Theres no real need to use K, V, E, T etc in your own classes but they are nice standards.

    K and V for example are used by Map. A good example of K and V is a HashMap!

    HashMap<K, V> hm = new HashMap<K, V>();


    And implementing:

    HashMap<Integer, String> hm = new HashMap<Integer, String>();

  2. The HashMap (java.util.HashMap<K,V>) uses it for example.

  3. Pretty sure a Map K uses and V

    public interface Map<K,V>

  4. java.util.Map is defined:

    public interface Map<K, V> { ... }

Why is this Javascript much *slower* than its jQuery equivalent?

I have a HTML list of about 500 items and a "filter" box above it. I started by using jQuery to filter the list when I typed a letter (timing code added later): $('#filter').keyup( function() { var jqStart = (new Date).getTime(); var search = $(this).val().toLowerCase(); var $list = $('ul.ablist > li'); $list.each( function() { if ( $(this).text().toLowerCase().indexOf(search) === -1 ) $(this).hide(); else $(this).show(); } ); console.log('Time: ' + ((new Date).getTime() - jqStart)); } ); However, there was a couple of seconds delay after typing each letter (particularly the first letter). So I thought it may be slightly quicker if I used plain Javascript (I read recently that jQuery's each function is particularly slow). Here's my JS equivalent: document.getElementById('filter').addEventListener( 'keyup', function () { var jsStart = (new Date).getTime()...

Is it possible to have IF statement in an Echo statement in PHP

Thanks in advance. I did look at the other questions/answers that were similar and didn't find exactly what I was looking for. I'm trying to do this, am I on the right path? echo " <div id='tabs-".$match."'> <textarea id='".$match."' name='".$match."'>". if ($COLUMN_NAME === $match) { echo $FIELD_WITH_COLUMN_NAME; } else { } ."</textarea> <script type='text/javascript'> CKEDITOR.replace( '".$match."' ); </script> </div>"; I am getting the following error message in the browser: Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_IF Please let me know if this is the right way to go about nesting an IF statement inside an echo. Thank you.
