...t least, I believe the concrete Lookup class is immutable, and the ILookup interface doesn't provide any mutating members. There could be other mutable implementations, of course.) When you lookup a key which isn't present in a lookup, you get an empty sequence back instead of a KeyNotFoundException...

... Passing a CancellationToken into the Task constructor associates it with the task. Quoting Stephen Toub's answer from MSDN: This has two primary benefits: If the token has cancellation requested prior to the Task starting to execute, the Ta...

...efine classes such as: vec3<float> a; vec3<double> b; vec3<int> c; if you want to be able to create one function to implement all 3 swaps (not that this example class warrants it) you do just like Xeo said in (2)... without specialization but just make a regular template functio...

...ng over an object, the packed representation that is normally used will be converted to a real dictionary. At that point, iteration of plain objects becomes very similar to iteration of arrays (which is why I'm not discussing plain-object iteration much in here). So far, so good. Iterating over a d...

...itly. Java, C# and Perl certainly do have implicit recursion. We could get into an endless debate about the meaning of "most" and the importance of each language, so let's just settle for "very many" other languages. – GS - Apologise to Monica Apr 13 '11 at 19:...

...nd I know very well what I am talking about when saying that .NET does not interpret any bytecode like Java does, it JITs it instantly. – Vercas Jun 14 '14 at 22:34 ...

...le string. The single-string overloads of exec() will tokenise the string into an array of arguments, before passing the string array onto one of the exec() overloads that takes a string array. The ProcessBuilder constructors, on the other hand, only take a varargs array of strings or a List of st...
