I don't think PDO supports this AFAIK.

I don't think that would work in this case, because there is no way to bind a PHP array to an SQL tuple. Available param types includes string , int , bool but no array or tuple type. http://php.net/manual/en/

The query in question is using an IN clause which takes a tuple of values. I don't think bindParam will allow you to bind an array into a tuple , the only way to pass the tuple is by forming it as a string and adding that to the query

In an earlier video blow mentions that he wants to use this language to develop AAA level game engines and run on consoles. Even games which use a higher level language for some functionality usually have engines written in much lower level

FWIW this article is about the UK where we don't usually have these issues.

Thing is that there are already tests out there that test for programming ability but they tend to either be very academic and mathematically focused like project euler or on trivia related to specific languages or technology. When you have

I would think the opposite, it's hard to think of a class of software where a project could ever be described as "done", even the most boring business applications have constant scope change as the nature of the business chan

Who pays for the tests? If candidates must pay then you will filter out any candidates who are unwilling or unable to invest the time and money required for completing the tests. If you ask the employer to pay then they must have some way t

Apple and Google released similar figures, so of course there will be pressure on Amazon to do this also.

By that definition all christians could be called creationists. I'm not aware of any christian sect who hold the belief that God came into existence after the rest of the universe.

Mitt Romney was not a creationist and he won the Republican nomination in 2012. Based on my understanding you also need to be Christian and born in America to reach the higher positions in either party.

Science should explore new ideas and understandings, but at the same time it should be critical of them. Therefor scientists should be as neutral as possible, but humans are very bad at being neutral. So the counterbalance to that is to try

If one of these statements is true then it's more likely that the other one is also true. It's a chicken and egg relationship.

What if the available methods are potentially different each time the code is run?
105.
by jiggy2011 12y ago
You could guess, but it wouldn't work in cases where, for example methods are added to a class dynamically and non deterministically as a side effect of some other operation.

PHP5 has real type hinting in the language, so you don't need to write any more than you would in Java.
107.
by jiggy2011 12y ago
It's not a problem that can be solved for a language like ruby without adding type hinting (and probably interfaces) to the language. FWIW php actually does support this.

Is this the case with specific facial features? Facial features that are considered attractive in various ways seem to remain relatively consistent between times and cultures.
109.
by jiggy2011 12y ago
This isn't clear on whether the specific facial cues would vary between cultures and times or whether we just compare vs other people we know.

The question is, how?

Yahoo was around and well established before google even showed up. If Yahoo was a new startup today then it could struggle.

When I studied CS , only a small minority arrived with programming skills, a much larger number came with knowledge of gaming and by extension computer building because it was much easier to afford a PC required for the newest games if you

The barrier to implementing this would surely be teaching resources, how do you teach a class if all students are at different stages in the course material? You would need to have very small class sizes.

Probably not, most programming languages boil down to the same thing with different syntax.

It's also quite ambiguous , does the person prefer to have a boss who is $gender because the gender is an advantage in it's own right? Or do they simply believe that people who are good bosses are more likely to be $gender but wou

The amount that most firms , especially large consulting firms etc are willing to invest in securing a fresh Cambridge grad is on a different scale to what they will do to hire someone from a middling institution. It's much easier for

Competition for Oxbridge graduates is very fierce to the point where a graduate can be expecting to have multiple offers to consider from employers willing to wine and dine them before they have graduated.

Users will switch over when their distro starts using it by default, the same as they would for a new version of the kernel , a new init system or any other lower level software. The fact is that the design of X is archaic and not well desi
