language agnostic - How to name this function -

-

given function:

function foo() {     if (!dostep1) {         return false;     }      if(!dostep2()) {         return false;     }      ...      // @ point, rest can fail,     // overall outcome should considered success      dostep15();      dostep16();      ...      return true; }

i'd wrap between 2 ... inside function.

any idea name function performs mandatory steps outcome don't care about?

function mandatorysteps() {     return dostep1() && dostep2() && ...; }  function optionalsteps() {     dostep15(); dostep16(); ... }

python - Why doesn't list have safe "get" method like dictionary? -

>>> d = {'a':'b'} >>> d['a'] 'b' >>> d['c'] keyerror: 'c' >>> d.get('c', 'fail') 'fail' >>> l = [1] >>> l[10] indexerror: list index out of range ultimately doesn't have safe .get method because dict associative collection (values associated names) inefficient check if key present (and return value) without throwing exception, while super trivial avoid exceptions accessing list elements (as len method fast). .get method allows query value associated name, not directly access 37th item in dictionary (which more you're asking of list). of course, can implement yourself: def safe_list_get (l, idx, default): try: return l[idx] except indexerror: return default you monkeypatch onto __builtins__.list constructor in __main__ , less pervasive change since code doesn't use it. if wanted use lists created own code subclas...

razor - Is this a bug in WebMatrix PageData? -

i think may have found bug in webmatrix's pagedata, not sure. concerns how pass data partial page calling page. in webmatrix documentation (tutorials, e.g. " 3 - creating consistent look ", , example code), pagedata recommended mechanism pass data between pages (e.g. content page layout page, or partial page). however have found not work other way, pass data partial page calling page. modifying or adding entries in pagedata in partial page, not seem calling page. cutting right down simplest possible example, in test page may have this: @{ pagedata["test"] = "initial entry"; } <p>before calling partial page, test value @pagedata["test"]</p> @renderpage("_testpartial.cshtml") <p>after returning calling page, test value @pagedata["test"]</p> and in _testpartial.cshtml page might have this: @{ pagedata["test"] = "modified entry"; } <p>in partial page...
