Arrays

Perform operations on sub-arrays iteratively (efficiently)

This can be done very easily using brute force, but if the array-size is huge, then performing the operations on a sub-array iteratively can be expensive. For that, need to basically only measure the delta between additions.

The explanation is detailed properly in the answer given below. Answer link - https://www.geeksforgeeks.org/constant-time-range-add-operation-array/

Some notes on setting up and working with react-native

I am trying react-native for android (I have a ubuntu distro and an android phone).

Setting it up

I've downloaded the things mentioned here. It's a lot of stuff to download to be honest. Just follow them to the letter. Do NOT try to skip things.

Create a project like this -

gnithin

<?php
function get_x509_public_key($x509_raw, $debug=FALSE)
{
    // Insert a '\r\n' every 64 bits
    $x509_raw_chunked = chunk_split($x509_raw, 64);

    $x509_text = '-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----' . "\n" . $x509_raw_chunked . '-----END CERTIFICATE-----';

    //$x509_ar = openssl_x509_parse($x509_text);

What I don't like about php -

• Different extensions for mysql (There has to be only one proper way to do stuff and migrating between them is HARD)
• Using references introduces a bucket-load of hard to debug bugs - (Eg: Always set the ref as null after using it, especially when used inside a foreach )
• Library bugs ( Eg: mb_substr has length param as upper bound on number of CHARs to use (Even if encoding is provided). It's actually the number of bytes, the community doesn't accept that as an error, but it was supposedly intended )
• utf8_encode is badly named. It's supposed to convert from ISO-8859-1 to utf-8. It ain't a magic wand.
• Inconsistency in function details. For example -

  array_map	 ( callable $callback, array $array1...)
  array_filter ( array $array, callable $callback...)
