Can Golang multiply strings like Python can? -

-

python can multiply strings so:

python 3.4.3 (default, mar 26 2015, 22:03:40) [gcc 4.9.2] on linux type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" more information. >>> x = 'my new text long' >>> y = '#' * len(x) >>> y '########################' >>>

can golang equivalent somehow?

it has function instead of operator, strings.repeat. here's port of python example:

package main  import (     "fmt"     "strings"     "unicode/utf8" )  func main() {     x := "my new text long"     y := strings.repeat("#", utf8.runecountinstring(x))     fmt.println(y) }

note i've used utf8.runecountinstring(x) instead of len(x); former counts "runes" (unicode code points), while latter counts bytes. in case of "my new text long", difference doesn't matter since characters 1 byte, it's habit of specifying mean.

(in python 2, len counts bytes on plain strings , runes on unicode strings (u'...'). in python 3, plain strings are unicode strings , len counts runes; if want count bytes, have encode string bytearray first. in go, there's 1 kind of string , don't have convert, have pick function matches semantics want.)

i try , create radar chart using chart.js has various colours each scaleline, or coloured between scalelines. wondering if possible? from: to: i have working graph, though there doesn't seem method change individual scale lines. kind regards leigh you can extend radar chart type this, so chart.types.radar.extend({ name: "radaralt", initialize: function (data) { chart.types.radar.prototype.initialize.apply(this, arguments); var originalscaledraw = this.scale.draw; var ctx = this.chart.ctx; this.scale.draw = function () { var linewidth = this.linewidth; // bypasses line drawing in originalscaledraw this.linewidth = linewidth; originalscaledraw.apply(this, arguments); ctx.linewidth = this.linewidth; var scale = this; // draw chart.helpers.each(scale.ylabels, function (label, index) { // color of ...

apache - Error with PHP mail(): Multiple or malformed newlines found in additional_header -

-
suddenly have started receiving above error without changes having been made script. host 1and1 (i know...) the script still works fine on different server, , suspicion there must have been server config change has lead this, although hosts plead ignorance. there's no information on above error @ in google can find - have ideas? server running apache if helps. had similar problem. came out of blue. no php code changed. what changed: php upgraded 5.5.25-1 5.5.26. a security risk in php mail() function has been fixed , newlines in additional_headers allowed no more. because newlines mean: starts email message (and surely don't want inject newlines through headers followed evil message). what have worked fine, e.g. having newlines after headers or passing whole message additional_headers , function no more. solution : sanitize headers. no multiple newlines in additional_headers argument. these count "multiple or malformed newlines":...
