Abstract
The HR-XML Consortium’s Background Checking specification defines a data format for requests to employment-screening service providers. The specification also includes a format for the return of search results from those providers to clients. A wide variety of screenings are supported, including searches of criminal records, education, employment, military service, professional licenses, professional sanctions, and credit.
Employment-related screenings or “background checks” are common within the United States, but they are less common in other countries. Some employers routinely conduct screenings when applicants are first offered employment. Within certain industries or for certain types of positions, it also is common for employers to conduct periodic screenings of employees (for example, drug tests or periodic driving-record checks for employees who drive company vehicles).
This document provides an overview of the HR-XML Consortium Background Checking specification and directs implementers to documentation where specification components are detailed.

HR-XML’s Background Checking specification supports requests to providers of background-checking services as well as the return of results from those providers.
HR-XML’s Background Checking specification supports a wide variety of screenings, including searches of criminal records, education, employment, military service, professional licenses, administrative/professional sanctions, and credit. Some employers routinely conduct screenings (for example, criminal-record checks, drug testing, etc.) when applicants are first offered employment. Within certain industries or for certain types of positions, it also may be common for employers to conduct periodic screenings of employees (for example, periodic driving record checks for employees who drive company vehicles).

The HR-XML’s Consortium’s Background Checking specification includes schemas that support:
§ Requests to third-party providers of employment screening services; and
§ The return of screening results or notifications of other outcomes (see Section 0, BackgroundReportPackage/ErrorReport).
The HR-XML Consortium’s Background Checking specification consists of a number of different components. This document provides a broad overview of the entire specification. Details for major components are contained in the documents listed below:
Background Requests
http://ns.hr-xml.org/2_5/HR-XML-2_5/Screening/US/BackgroundRequests.html
Background Reports
http://ns.hr-xml.org/2_5/HR-XML-2_5/Screening/US/BackgroundReports.html
Credit Reports (a component of the
BackgroundReports schema)
http://ns.hr-xml.org/2_5/HR-XML-2_5/Screening/US/CreditReport.html
The HR-XML Consortium’s Background Checking specification also makes extensive use of the Consortium’s approved “Cross Process Objects” (CPO’s). A list of documentation for the Consortium’s complete set of CPO’s can be found in Appendix B. However, the following CPO documentation will be of particular importance to implementers of the Background Checking specification:
Employment History
http://ns.hr-xml.org/2_5/HR-XML-2_5/CPO/EmploymentHistory.html
EducationHistory
http://ns.hr-xml.org/2_5/HR-XML-2_5/CPO/EducationHistory.html
MilitaryHistory
http://ns.hr-xml.org/2_5/HR-XML-2_5/CPO/MilitaryHistory.html
For details on the dependencies among the Background Checking specification’s component schemas, see Section 1.1, Component Schemas and Dependencies.
Background checking has become a formalized procedure compared to its beginnings when it was as simple as asking a friend or associate if they ever heard of a new applicant. The risk of costly litigation has resulted in more and more employers conducting background checks on their employees each year.
Currently customer systems (typically, core HR systems or applicant tracking systems) and the systems of background-checking providers are unable to universally exchange information. This often leaves clients with the burden of keying data to multiple systems or paying for the development of custom interfaces to enable business with a particular vendor. The requirement to develop custom interfaces makes it difficult and expensive for employers or HR service partners to integrate their systems with those of background checking firms.
The HR-XML Consortium’s Background Checking specification defines the format for data exchange between HR systems (core HR systems, applicant-tracking systems, etc.) and the systems maintained by background checking firms. A standard format for data exchange enables the easy integration of different systems. Integrated systems reduce administrative costs by eliminating the need to re-key data and by eliminating errors that occur when data is re-keyed from requests submitted on paper or by fax. Integrated systems also eliminate “manual data integration” that occurs when administrators must key data into web-based forms or “cut and paste” data from one web application to another.
The Background Checking specification allows employers choosing a background-checking service to focus on factors such as quality of service, accuracy, and pricing instead of having to consider integration details and other “non-functional” factors. The speedy return of background check results helps ensure that employers do not lose qualified candidates to other employers as a result of screening delays.
For background checking service providers, HR-XML’s specification reduces time and costs involved in acquiring new accounts and allows for low-cost, opportunistic partnering with HR software vendors.
Key terms used in this specification are defined below:
§ Background Check. A Background check consists of one or more screenings. Background checks typically are conducted on applicants after they have been given a conditional offer of employment, but they also may be conducted on current employees or other human resources (for instance, a contractor or vendor employee). For example, an employer might periodically request motor vehicle record searches for its truck drivers to ensure they have clean driving records and to ensure they have maintained the licenses required for their positions.
§ Screening. A screening is a particular type of search or verification procedure conducted as part of a background check. Examples of screenings include checks of criminal records, department of motor vehicle records, education, employment, and professional licenses.
The principal design requirement for Background Checking 2.0 was to develop complete, but flexible schemas to support requests to providers of employment-screening services as well as the return of search results.
The HR-XML Consortium’s Background Checking 2.0 improves upon the previous specification released by the Consortium. The BackgroundReports 2.0 schema is designed to return results of a background check either as discretely fielded data or as an un-fielded (“un-parsed”) block of text. In comparison, the previous version of the specification included a very simple schema that accommodated only the return of an un-fielded block of text for each type of screening report.
Items within and outside of the design scope are detailed below.
Version 2.0 of the HR-XML Background Checking specification is intended to support a wide variety of possible employment-related screenings. Within the BackgroundCheck Request schema, screenings are specified using the type attribute on the Screening component, which includes built-in enumerations for common types of screenings. Clients also may specify additional types of screenings that they have arranged with their background check providers. Among the screenings supported by the specification include:
§ Credit. The specification supports requests for credit checks and the return of credit scores and credit histories, such those produced by credit bureaus (Experian, Equifax, and Trans Union, for example). The specification includes a separate Credit Reporting schema capable of capturing all the employment-related fields from the major credit bureaus report formats.
§ Criminal records. The specification is capable of transmitting information required for criminal records searches as well as results.
§ Drug testing. Data relating to drug-test screening requests and reports can be transmitted. A medical laboratory with an affiliation or trading-partner relationship with the screening service provider typically might conduct the drug tests.
§ Education verification. The specification can support requests to verify educational information claimed on a resume or application. The specification also supports the return of education search findings. The BackgroundCheck Requests and BackgroundReport schemas make use of the HR-XML Consortium’s EducationHistory schema.
§ Employment verification. Information necessary to research or verify current and prior employment can be transmitted and results returned. The BackgroundCheck Requests and BackgroundReport schemas make use of the HR-XML Consortium’s EmploymentHistory schema.
§ Military service verification. Details on military service can be transmitted for verification and the search results returned. The BackgroundCheck Requests and BackgroundReport schemas make use of the HR-XML Consortium’s MilitaryHistory schema.
§ Motor vehicle records. The specification supports requests for motor vehicle record searches and the return of reports. Typically, motor vehicle records contain information such as driver’s license status, suspensions and revocations of driving privileges, infractions and violations, and restrictions on licenses.
§ Professional/administrative sanctions. Professional organizations (for example, bar associations for attorneys or medical boards for physicians) often set guidelines and codes of practice for their profession. Professional organizations may penalize or sanction professionals that violate guidelines and codes of practice. Government agencies also may impose sanctions on professionals that violate government contracting or program requirements. For example, in the United States, physicians and health care providers can face sanctions for abuses under the federal Medicare program. The BackgroundChecking specification provides a flexible mechanism for requesting professional and administrative sanction searches and the return of information regarding any sanctions.
§ Skills assessment. The specification is capable of transmitting information identifying skills or competencies claimed by a search subject that the client wants to verify or assess. The specification also is capable of supporting the return of the assessment results. The SearchOther component of the BackgroundCheck Request schema incorporates the HR-XML Consortium’s Compenency specification. This gives clients a flexible container to transmit information about a skill or competency. The SkillsAssessmentReport component within the BackgroundReports schema supports the return of assessment details. The BackgroundChecking specification does not address the process or means by which skills are verified or assessed. The specification merely provides a data format for assessment information to be transmitted.
§ Social security number verification. Within the United States, employers often want to verify a new employee’s social security number (SSN). SSN verification results can help ensure payroll tax processing is accurate and also can be useful in researching questions regarding an employee’s eligibility to work.
§ Professional license. The BackgroundCheck Request schema’s SearchLicence component is used to support professional license searches. Typically, clients would be interested in confirming the type, status, and duration of a license held by the search subject. Enumerations for a wide variety of license types are built-in to the schema. These built-in license types also can be extended with additional types that are applicable to a client’s particular business or industry. The specification also supports the return of professional-license search results.
§ Professional/personal reference reports. The specification allows the transmission of information necessary for a screening-service provider to conduct checks of a subject’s professional or personal references. As with other types of screenings, the specification allows the referencing of questions sets agreed-to by the client and the screening-service provider. The service provider can use those questions sets to structure interviews with the individuals the subject has provided as references. The specification also supports the return of professional/personal reference check results.
§ Workers compensation. The specification supports the transmission of information necessary to research a subject’s workers compensation claims history. The specification also supports the return of such claims history.
§ Customized screening and verification. The BackgroundCheck schema can flexibly support customized screenings and verifications that a client and background checking service providers may agree upon.
Among items outside of the scope of this specification are:
§ Order generation/trading partner agreements. The BackgroundCheck schema is intended to enable the transfer of the data necessary to execute a background search. In addition, the schema is sufficiently comprehensive to support a complete “search order” in some, but not all cases. In many cases, a trading partner agreement would need to be established prior to executing a search so that necessary powers of attorney and other authorizations could be completed and so that “question sets” (specific questions or items the client wants answered or investigated, see below) could be developed and approved.
§ Dynamic question set generation/submission. The BackgroundCheck schema allows clients submitting background checks to reference questions sets that were previously submitted to the screening-service provider. For example, a client might provide a set of questions that the screening firm should ask employment references. Note that the schema does not support the submission of those questions. This is appropriate since questions generally would be reviewed for legal compliance before they would be used within the screening process.
§ Interactions with the search subject. HR-XML’s Background Checking specification does not address interactions with the subject of a background search. There are a variety of interactions with the search subject that are necessary in the course of a background check. For instance, a client might not be willing or able to provide certain information required for a particular search (for example, date of birth). In such cases, the screening-service provider might contact the search subject directly. Other contact with the search subject might be necessary under applicable law. For instance, the client or screening-service provider might be responsible for notifying search subjects of adverse decisions based on information obtained from a credit report or other search.
§ Interfaces with original sources of background check information. The specification is designed to support interactions between third-party screening-service providers and their clients. The specification is not intended to cover interfaces with original sources of screening information, such as courts, governments, educational institutions, etc. However, some of the components of the HR-XML Consortium’s Background Checking specification could be useful to developers of original-source interfaces.
§ Implementation frameworks. This specification, like all HR-XML Consortium specifications, is intended to be independent of specific transport or messaging frameworks and thus does not address those details.
The minimum data required to successfully execute many of types of screenings will vary from jurisdiction to jurisdiction. In general, the specification makes no attempt to enforce these jurisdictional requirements within the schema. The separate document “BackgroundCheck Requests,” includes an appendix with some general guidance on the minimal data required for specific types of screenings.
Employment-related background checks are common within the United States, but they are less common in other countries. In some jurisdictions, prevailing law may prohibit the transmittal of some information necessary to execute a background check (see Sections 3.1, Data Privacy and 3.2, Laws Governing Background Checks). The HR-XML Consortium’s Background Checking specification is designed to support U.S. background checking practices and supports international checks where possible.
The HR-XML Consortium’s Background Checking Specification consists of two principal schemas, BackgroundCheck Requests and BackgroundReports. It also includes a number of component schemas. The dependencies among these schemas is presented in the table below:
|
Schema |
Description |
Components |
|
BackgroundCheck.xsd |
The primary schema used to structure background check requests to screening-service providers. |
xml.xsd (W3C) Screenings.xsd |
|
BackgroundReports.xsd |
The primary schema used to structure the return to clients of screening results, status, or errors. |
xml.xsd (W3C)
Credit.xsd |
|
Credit.xsd |
This is intended as a component schema within BackgroundReports.xsd to structure credit reports. Credit.xsd also could be useful as a stand-alone schema, although the primary supported business process (see Section 2.2, Business Process Overview) does not contemplate such use. |
ScreeningTypes.xsd |
|
Screenings.xsd |
A component schema that contains element and type definitions necessary for specific screenings, such as criminal record search requests, credit, education history, etc. |
xml.xsd (W3C)
ScreeningTypes.xsd
|
|
ScreeningTypes.xsd |
A component schema containing lower-level simple and complex types shared across the various component schemas. |
xml.xsd (W3C) xmldsig-core-schema.xsd (W3C) DemographicDetail.xsd EducationHistory.xsd PositionHeader.xsd EmploymentHistory.xsd MilitaryHistory.xsd |
Some of the component schemas listed in the third column were not defined as part of the Background Checking specification, but were defined by the HR-XML Consortium’s Cross Process Objects (CPO) and other workgroups. For further information, see Appendix B. Also note that xmldsig-core-schema.xsd defines structures necessary for digital signatures and xml.xsd sets out datatypes for representing languages, as well as other schema types. These schemas are bundled within the HR-XML release package. However, they were developed and is owned by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C). For further information, see http://www.w3c.org/
As depicted in the diagram below, the HR-XML Background Checking specification is intended to support BackgroundCheck Requests from a client to a background-checking service provider. This might be a single request or multiple requests sent in batch.
The BackgroundCheck Requests and BackgroundReports schemas may be used to structure exchanges within a wide range of scenarios. The scenario depicted below is very generalized and illustrative of typical usage.
The actors in transactions supported by this specification are:
§ A Client. The client usually would be an employer or an agent of an employer, such as a recruiter or recruiting solutions provider.
§ A Screening-Service Provider. A screening service provider generally is a company that provides a range of pre-employment background checking services to employers. “Background-checking service provider” and “screening-service provider” are used interchangeably. Sub-contracting among screening service providers is common. Thus, in some cases a screening service provider could stand in the role of a client – that is a screening service provider might originate a BackgroundCheck Request to another provider.
The search subject (the person who is the subject of the background check) obviously is another actor involved in the background check process. Certain notifications to the search subject may be required by applicable law (see Section 3.2, Laws Governing Background Checks). However, as noted in Section 1.3.2, interactions with the search subject are outside the scope of this specification.
For each BackgroundCheck Request, one or more BackgroundReports are returned. BackgroundReports may contain:
§ Results for the particular screenings that were requested;
§ Details regarding insufficiencies or errors in the BackgroundCheck request that prevented the successful execution of the request; or
§ Information regarding the status of a BackgroundCheck request that is pending.
Error and status reports are explained an illustrated in the sections that follow.
The ErrorReport section of the BackgroundReports schema allows a screening service provider to report insufficient (or otherwise ambiguous or incorrect) information that prevents a BackgroundCheck Request from being executed successfully.
ErrorSeverity may be specified within ErrorReport so that fatal errors (errors that prevent the return of any results) can be distinguished from those that might return partial or unreliable results.
ErrorCode is provided to allow trading partners to specify codes identifying particular types of error conditions. Standardizing BackgroundCheck error codes is outside the scope of this specification.

While requests usually are processed in an asynchronous fashion, client-initiated updating or canceling of existing BackgroundCheck Requests are not explicitly supported by this specification. This is because under prevailing industry practice, legal and financial commitments usually are triggered at the time a customer makes the request. Consequently, the practice within the industry often is to treat a “corrective” or “updated” request as a new request. The HR-XML Consortium’s Screening workgroup will examine the support of additional possible actions in a future release.
Human resources data, by its very nature, is personal data. The laws of many jurisdictions as well as codes of fair information practice require organizations to handle personal data in a way that protects individuals from loss of privacy.
The data exchange specifications developed by the HR-XML Consortium are designed to be useful across many jurisdictions and within a variety of business contexts. It is not feasible for the HR-XML Consortium to develop specific privacy guidance for every jurisdiction or business context in which the Consortium's specifications might be implemented. When implementing data exchanges using the HR-XML Consortium's data definitions (or, for that matter, using any other type of data exchange mechanism), organizations are advised to examine the privacy protections that may be required under applicable law and codes of fair information practice.
For information on protecting personal data, general references include: European Union Data Protection Directive (95/46/EC); the Association Computing Machinery Code of Ethics (1992); Canadian Standards Association Model Code for the Protection of Personal Information (1995 – PIPEDA); and U.S.-EU Safe Harbor Principles and FAQs (2000).
Implementers of the Background Checking are advised to review applicable law in the jurisdictions in which they operate. For example, in United States, the Fair Credit Reporting Act may require third-party providers of background-check services to obtain the consent of search subjects and to advise them of results before adverse action is taken.

where(7f) - [FORTRAN:ASSIGNMENT] masked array assignment
WHERE statement:
WHERE ( mask-expr ) where-assignment-stmtWHERE construct without ELSEWHERE:
[where-construct-name:] WHERE ( mask-expr ) ELSEWHERE (mask-expr ) [where-construct-name]WHERE construct with ELSEWHEREs:
[where-construct-name:] WHERE ( mask-expr ) [ELSEWHERE (mask-expr ) elemental-statements] [ELSEWHERE (mask-expr ) elemental-statements] : [ELSEWHERE elemental-statements ] END WHERE [where-construct-name]
A masked array assignment is either a WHERE statement or a WHERE construct. It is used to mask the evaluation of expressions and assignment of values in array assignment statements, according to the value of a logical array expression.where-assignment-stmt that is a defined assignment shall be elemental.
A statement that is part of a where-body-construct shall not be a branch target statement.
If a where-construct contains a where-stmt, a masked-elsewhere-stmt, or another where-construct then each mask-expr within the where-construct shall have the same shape. In each where-assignment-stmt, the mask-expr and the variable being defined shall be arrays of the same shape.
Examples of a masked array assignment are:
WHERE (TEMP > 100.0) TEMP = TEMP - REDUCE_TEMPInterpretation of masked array assignmentswhere (PRESSURE <= 1.0) PRESSURE = PRESSURE + INC_PRESSURE TEMP = TEMP - 5.0 elsewhere RAINING = .TRUE. endwhere
When a WHERE statement or a where-construct-stmt is executed, a control mask is established. In addition, when a WHERE construct statement is executed, a pending control mask is established. If the statement does not appear as part of a where-body-construct, the mask-expr of the statement is evaluated, and the control mask is established to be the value of mask-expr . The pending control mask is established to have the value .NOT. mask-expr upon execution of a WHERE construct statement that does not appear as part of a where-body-construct. The mask-expr is evaluated only once.
Each statement in a WHERE construct is executed in sequence.
Upon execution of a masked-elsewhere-stmt, the following actions take place in sequence.
The mask-expr is evaluated at most once.
1. The control mask mc is established to have the value of the pending control mask. 2. The pending control mask is established to have the value mc .AND. (.NOT. mask-expr ). 3. The control mask mc is established to have the value mc .AND. mask-expr . Upon execution of an ELSEWHERE statement, the control mask is established to have the value of the pending control mask. No new pending control mask value is established.
Upon execution of an ENDWHERE statement, the control mask and pending control mask are established to have the values they had prior to the execution of the corresponding WHERE construct statement. Following the execution of a WHERE statement that appears as a where-body-construct, the control mask is established to have the value it had prior to the execution of the WHERE statement.
The establishment of control masks and the pending control mask is illustrated with the following example:
where(cond1) ! Statement 1 . . . elsewhere(cond2) ! Statement 2 . . . elsewhere ! Statement 3 . . . end whereFollowing execution of statement 1, the control mask has the value cond1 and the pending control mask has the value .NOT. cond1. Following execution of statement 2, the control mask has the value (.NOT. cond1) .AND. cond2 and the pending control mask has the value (.NOT. cond1) .AND. (.NOT. cond2). Following execution of statement 3, the control mask has the value (.NOT. cond1) [char46]AND. (.NOT. cond2). The false condition values are propagated through the execution of the masked ELSEWHERE statement.
Upon execution of a WHERE construct statement that is part of a where-body-construct, the pending control mask is established to have the value mc .AND. (.NOT. mask-expr ). The control mask is then established to have the value mc .AND. mask-expr. The mask-expr is evaluated at most once.
Upon execution of a WHERE statement that is part of a where-body-construct, the control mask is established to have the value mc .AND. mask-expr. The pending control mask is not altered.
If a nonelemental function reference occurs in the expr or variable of a where-assignment-stmt or in a mask-expr , the function is evaluated without any masked control; that is, all of its argument expressions are fully evaluated and the function is fully evaluated. If the result is an array and the reference is not within the argument list of a nonelemental function, elements corresponding to true values in the control mask are selected for use in evaluating the expr, variable or mask-expr.
If an elemental operation or function reference occurs in the expr or variable of a where-assignment-stmt or in a mask-expr , and is not within the argument list of a nonelemental function reference, the operation is performed or the function is evaluated only for the elements corresponding to true values of the control mask.
If an array constructor appears in a where-assignment-stmt or in a mask-expr , the array constructor is evaluated without any masked control and then the where-assignment-stmt is executed or the mask-expr is evaluated.
When a where-assignment-stmt is executed, the values of expr that correspond to true values of the control mask are assigned to the corresponding elements of the variable.
The value of the control mask is established by the execution of a WHERE statement, a WHERE construct statement, an ELSEWHERE statement, a masked ELSEWHERE statement, or an ENDWHERE statement. Subsequent changes to the value of entities in a mask-expr have no effect on the value of the control mask. The execution of a function reference in the mask expression of a WHERE statement is permitted to affect entities in the assignment statement.
Examples of function references in masked array assignments are:
where (A > 0.0) A = LOG (A) ! LOG is invoked only for positive elements. A = A / SUM (LOG (A)) ! LOG is invoked for all elements ! because SUM is transformational. end where
Sample
program demo_where !  The above protects against divide by zero, but doesnt actually assign ! values to elements in c when the corresponding element in b is zero ! The following covers that, and sets a flag when a divide by zero is ! present ! where (b(1:nd).ne.0.0) c=a/b iflag=0 else where c=0.0 iflag=1 end where

[HTML5 Boilerplate homepage](https://html5boilerplate.com/) | [Documentation table of contents](TOC.md) # The CSS HTML5 Boilerplate's CSS includes: * [Normalize.css](#normalizecss) * [main.css](#maincss) This starting CSS does not rely on the presence of [conditional class names](https://www.paulirish.com/2008/conditional-stylesheets-vs-css-hacks-answer-neither/), [conditional style sheets](https://css-tricks.com/how-to-create-an-ie-only-stylesheet/), or [Modernizr](https://modernizr.com/), and it is ready to use no matter what your development preferences happen to be. ## Normalize.css In order to make browsers render all elements more consistently and in line with modern standards, we include Normalize.css — a modern, HTML5-ready alternative to CSS resets. As opposed to CSS resets, Normalize.css: * targets only the styles that need normalizing * preserves useful browser defaults rather than erasing them * corrects bugs and common browser inconsistencies * improves usability with subtle improvements * doesn't clutter the debugging tools * has better documentation For more information about Normalize.css, please refer to its [project page](https://necolas.github.io/normalize.css/). ## main.css Several base styles are included that build upon `Normalize.css`. These styles: * provide basic typography settings that improve text readability * protect against unwanted `text-shadow` during text highlighting * tweak the default alignment of some elements (e.g.: `img`, `video`, `fieldset`, `textarea`) * style the prompt that is displayed to users using an outdated browser * and more... These styles are included in [main.css](https://github.com/h5bp/html5-boilerplate/blob/master/dist/css/main.css). See the [main.css](https://github.com/h5bp/main.css) project [documentation](https://github.com/h5bp/main.css/blob/master/README.md#features) for a full discussion of these styles.

Imagine that you are the CEO of a big old-fashioned company. Unlike any modern and progressive company (such as JetBrains), your company has a dress code. That's why you have already allocated a spacious room for your employees where they can change their clothes. Moreover, you've already purchased an $m$-compartment wardrobe, so the $i$-th employee can keep his/her belongings in the $i$-th cell (of course, all compartments have equal widths).
The issue has occurred: the wardrobe has sliding doors! More specifically, the wardrobe has $n$ doors (numbered from left to right) and the $j$-th door has width equal to $a_j$ wardrobe's cells. The wardrobe has single rails so that no two doors can slide past each other.
The problem is as follows: sometimes to open some cells you must close some other cells (since all doors are placed on the single track). For example, if you have a $4$-compartment wardrobe (i.e. $m=4$) with $n=2$ one-cell doors (i.e. $a_1=a_2=1$) and you need to open the $1$-st and the $3$-rd cells, you have to close the $2$-nd and the $4$-th cells.
As CEO, you have a complete schedule for the next $q$ days. Now you are wondering: is it possible that all employees who will come on the $k$-th day can access their cells simultaneously?
The first line contains two integers $n$ and $m$ ($1 \le n \le 2 \cdot 10^5$, $1 \le m \le 4 \cdot 10^5$) — the number of doors and compartments respectively.
The second line contains $n$ integers $a_1, a_2, \dots, a_n$ ($1 \le a_i \le m$, $\sum{a_i} \le m$) — the corresponding widths of the doors.
The third line contains a single integer $q$ ($1 \le q \le 2 \cdot 10^5$) — the number of days you have to process.
The next $q$ lines describe schedule of each day. Each schedule is represented as an integer $c_k$ followed by $c_k$ integers $w_1, w_2, \dots, w_{c_k}$ ($1 \le c_k \le 2 \cdot 10^5$, $1 \le w_1 < w_2 < \dots < w_{c_k} \le m$) — the number of employees who will come on the $k$-th day, and their indices in ascending order.
It's guaranteed that $\sum{c_k}$ doesn't exceed $2 \cdot 10^5$.
Print $q$ answers. Each answer is "YES" or "NO" (case insensitive). Print "YES" if it is possible, that all employees on the corresponding day can access their compartments simultaneously.

Seen within a few minutes of one another last week in London: a series of advertisements for computers running the Windows NT system, with the slogan 'The Full MoNTy', and a headline in a tabloid newspaper crying 'Give us the Full Monty, Gordon'.
It's a measure of the film's success that the description 'the full Monty', until now more often associated with the English cooked breakfast, has become so widely used in recent weeks. And, given that the film is about male strippers, the mind boggles at that tabloid headline, which was actually about Britain's reluctance to commit to a fiscal union with the rest of Europe.
The plot of the film is very simple - a group of redundant Sheffield steelworkers are looking for alternative ways to earn their keep and, in desperation, come up with the idea of mounting a strip show. But the effect is in the execution, and in the acting; there are such wonderful moments as when a redundant foreman, played by Tom Wilkinson, has a visit from the bailiffs, or when the slightly tubby steelworker played by Mark Addy attempts a very novel approach to losing weight.
Starting with an archive film from the 1970s, about Sheffield's then thriving industry, 'The Full Monty' actually tells us a great deal about the collapse of a society based on heavy industry. Light-hearted as it is, it addresses a very important question: when the traditional sources of livelihood in places like Sheffield disappear, what needs to replace them?
It's good fun, and good-natured fun as well because the characters are invariably both fallible and likeable. Despite being set among such economic desolation, a genuine feel-good film.

--- title: "How to Install MATLAB R2018b on Windows 10?" author: "Pooya Shirazi" date: 2018-10-06T00:00:00-08:00 output: html_document ---
Follow step-by-step demonstration “How to install MATLAB R2018b on windows 10”.


18 January is Winnie the Pooh Day. We’ve made a list of our most popular Winnie the Pooh titles and favourite books about bears to mark the occasion.
Winnie the Pooh books
Now We Are Six, by A. A. Milne & E. H. Shepard
“This work includes poems for children which feature Pooh helping Christopher Robin with his schoolwork (if helping is the word). It is an evocation of childhood, through the eyes of the six-year-old Robin.
“Featuring E. H. Shepard’s original illustrations, Now We Are Six is a heartwarming and funny introduction to children’s poetry, offering the same sense of humour, imagination and whimsy that we’ve come to expect from his favourite books about Winnie-the-Pooh, that Bear of Very Little Brain.”
Winnie the Pooh, by A. A. Milne & E. H. Shepard
“‘Once upon a time, a very long time ago now, about last Friday, Winnie-the-Pooh lived in a forest all by himself under the name of Sanders.’
“Winnie-the-Pooh may be a bear of very little brain, but thanks to his friends Piglet, Eeyore and, of course, Christopher Robin, he’s never far from an adventure. In this story Pooh gets into a tight place, nearly catches a Woozle and heads off on an ‘expotition’ to the North Pole with the other animals.”
The House at Pooh Corner, by A. A. Milne & E. H. Shepard
“‘One day when Pooh Bear had nothing else to do, he thought he would do something, so he went round to Piglet’s house to see what Piglet was doing.’
“This is the second classic children’s story by A.A. Milne about Winnie-the-Pooh and his friends in the Hundred Acre Wood. In this volume Pooh meets the irrepressible Tigger for the first time, learns to play Poohsticks and sets a trap for a Heffalump.”
The Christopher Robin Collection: tales of a boy and his bear, by A. A. Milne & E. H. Shepard
“Christopher Robin received a toy bear for his first birthday which he later named Winnie-the-Pooh. Together, Christopher Robin and Pooh formed one of the greatest friendships of children’s literature; embarking on extraordinary adventures with their friends in the Hundred Acre Wood.
“This edition showcases their most exciting encounters and treasured moments, from A.A. Milne’s original books, accompanied by E.H. Shepard’s decorations.”
The Best Bear in All the World: in which we join Winnie the Pooh for a year of adventures in the Hundred Acre Wood, by various
“Celebrate 90 years of Winnie-the-Pooh with The Best Bear in all the World, the official sequel to the classic children’s stories by A.A. Milne.
“With brand-new stories from some of the most beloved children’s authors writing today - Paul Bright, Brian Sibley, Kate Saunders, and Jeanne Willis - each will transport you back into the Hundred Acre Wood for more adventures with Winnie-the-Pooh, Christopher Robin, Piglet, Tigger, Eeyore, and the rest of the gang.”
Return to the Hundred Acre Wood: in which Winnie the Pooh enjoys further adventures with Christopher Robin and his friends, by David Benedictus & Mark Burgess
“Over 80 years since Winnie-the-Pooh first delighted readers, David Benedictis takes us back to the Hundred Acre Wood for more adventures.”
Other bears of note
Rabbit’s Bad Habits, by Julian Gough & Jim Field
The first Rabbit & Bear book. Author Julian Gough said he wanted to ‘combine the charm and humour and complicated, funny, interesting characters of Winnie the Pooh with the weird, different-kind-of-interesting, real-life facts of David Attenborough’s wildlife documentaries.’ And the result is hilarious, warm and perfect for sharing.
Polar Bear, Polar Bear, What Do You Hear?, by Bill Martin Jr & Eric Carle
A beautiful, noisy book about animal sounds, this is a companion to Brown Bear, Brown Bear, What Do You See?.
Hugless Douglas and the Great Cake Bake, by David Melling
The loveable Brown bear who was in need of a hug, is encouraged to try new things to eat- in this story it’s anything which isn’t honey.
I Want My Hat Back, by Jon Klassen
The first in a brilliant trilogy by an award-winning Canadian author-illustrator:
“The bear’s hat is gone and he wants it back. Patiently and politely he asks the animals he comes across whether they have seen it. Each animal says no, some more elaborately than others. But just as he begins to lose hope a deer comes by and asks a question that suddenly sparks the bear’s memory.”
Please Mr Panda, by Steve Antony
“Panda has a tray of doughnuts. Animal after animal tells him the one they want, but it’s only when Lemur says ‘please’ politely that Panda will give any out! A witty and stylish lesson that manners will get you everything. Even a trayload of doughnuts.”
The first lesson in good manners from the loveable grump.
Never Take a Bear to School, by Mark Sperring & Britta Teckentrup
“Bears are clumsy. They don’t sit still. They’re much, much bigger than teachers - and they eat SUCH a lot of lunch! Yes, taking a bear to school is a BAD idea. But will this little boy find the courage to face the first day of school alone? With so much to do, like painting, dressing up, storytime, and making new friends, he just might! And Bear? He’ll always be waiting at the end of the day, with a great big hug!”
A funny and heart-warming tale, especially good for reading with children who are worried about starting school or nursey.
The Ice Bear, by Jackie Morris
“When the great bear wakes in her ice den to find that one of her two cubs has been taken, she holds the second child close, but she never forgets her lost child. When a childless couple are given their heart’s desire, they too hold their new-found child close. But is Raven a force for evil of a force for good?”
A Bear Called Paddington, by Michael Bond & Peggy Fortnum
““A bear on Paddington Station?” said Mrs Brown in amazement. “Don’t be silly – there can’t be.”
“The Browns first met Paddington on a railway station – Paddington station, in fact. He had travelled all the way from Darkest Peru with only a jar of marmalade, a suitcase and his hat.
“The Browns soon find that Paddington is a very unusual bear. Ordinary things – like having a bath, travelling underground or going to the seaside become quite extraordinary, if a bear called Paddington is involved.”

Georgian protest calls for government to step down
TBILISI, Georgia (AP) - Thousands of people are demonstrating in front of parliament in the country of Georgia, demanding that the government steps down and early elections be held.
Monday's demonstration in the capital, Tbilisi, was the latest in a series of protests set off by the parliament's failure to pass an elections-reform measure promised by the governing party.
That measure would have changed the country's parliamentary elections so that all seats would be allocated according to the proportion of votes received by a party.
Opponents of the governing Georgian Dream party say the current system in which about half the seats are single constituencies gives the party disproportionately strong representation.
Demonstrators plan to try to block the entrances to parliament on Tuesday, when it is to hold a session.

Every day, in our interactions with other people we have experiences that make life worth living. We say, “thank you” to each other. But, talk is cheap and words are fleeting. It’s easy for someone to express appreciation through words alone. How motivating is “thank you?” What if we could seamlessly back our words with something priceless? What would the world look like if we had a more effective way to express gratitude to each other? What if we could keep the “appreciation,” we receive, forever?
The Lotus Project believes that it would foster the spirit of reciprocity. We believe that it would guide people towards positive actions -- and away from things that are not beneficial. And we are creating a way to do exactly that.
Flowers are often given to show appreciation, but we cannot keep perishable flowers at hand. By tokenizing a flower, we can always have the symbol with us. Tokens take up no physical space, and do not perish. The lotus in particular symbolizes purity, enlightenment, rebirth, and regeneration. These are the values which this token seeks to represent.
The Lotus token ledger is maintained on a permissionless, uncensorable, and open blockchain which is maintained and enabled by software produced by the Logos Foundation. New tokens are minted through proof-of-work mining and given as a reward to the developers who lovingly produce the infrastructure which enables the token to exist and be transferred, and to the miners who carefully maintain the accuracy of the blockchain. This will occurs through "block rewards", which are open and transparent.
Unlike Bitcoin, which is a speculative asset, Lotus is priceless -- a token of appreciation -- having sentimental value. The reward schedule is programmed to react to changes in the demand for Lotus tokens and is inflationary. By being inflationary, there is no reason to hoard it except as a reminder of how much people value us. Lotus is not to be an investment, but our investments in each other will generate more Lotus.
Thank you for participating in our dream by reading this.


Call this when you want to install a package for android mobile builds only.
yo scaffi:install-android ng-table
yo scaffi:install-android github:angular-wizard/angular-wizard
!!! We don't want to use npm install * directly anymore, because there are processes in the framework that keep everything in-sync for not only the build, but for everyone on the project. Always use one of the yo scaffi:install-* commands when adding a package. !!!
This command is used if you want to install npm/github packages that will only be used for an android mobile build. Use it like you would npm install.
This is how you inject into Angular. Let's say we only want to use ng-table in Android. In src/ui/app/theme/theme.js we would do something like this:
The import 'ng-table'; will be imported into the vendor.js file for android, and excluded for every other platform.

Round up the family for the annual Wahiawa Community Santa Claus parade
by HNN StaffWAHIAWA, Hawaii (HawaiiNewsNow) -Over 40 floats and walking units will be taking part in this year’s Wahiawa Community and Business Association’s Santa Claus Parade.
The annual event is set to take place on Dec. 6. It runs through the heart of Wahiawa beginning at 6:30 p.m.
“The parade will proceed up California Avenue from Ka’ala Elementary School to the town center, where Santa will be available to visit with children. And of course, Santa’s elves will be passing out candy to the ‘good’ boys and girls along the parade route,” Parade Coordinator Marcia Sumile said.
The Leilehua High School marching band is among those participating.
President Keoni Ahlo adds, “The WCBA invites everyone in the Wahiawa area to come out, join the fun, and get in the Christmas spirit.”

Football: Pochettino sacked by Tottenham
LONDON: Tottenham Hotspur sacked manager Mauricio Pochettino on Tuesday (Nov 19) just five months after reaching the Champions League final following a poor start to the Premier League season.
"The Club can today announce that Mauricio Pochettino and his coaching staff Jesus Perez, Miguel D'Agostino and Antoni Jimenez have been relieved of their duties," Tottenham, who sit 14th in the Premier League, said in a statement.


| ncvar_change_missval {pbdNCDF4} | R Documentation |
Changes the missing_value attribute for a netCDF variable.
ncvar_change_missval( nc, varid, missval )
nc |
An object of class |
varid |
Either the name of the variable or an |
missval |
The missing value to change to. |
Note: this specialty function is only used to change a variable's missing value
after it has already been defined,
which is rare. The proper way to set
a variable's missing value in the first place is by setting the missing value argument to
routine ncvar_def
appropriately.
Missing values are special values in netCDF files whose value is to be taken as indicating the data is "missing". This is a convention, and is indicated by the netCDF variable having an attribute named "missing_value" that holds this number. This function sets the "missing_value" attribute for a variable.
R uses a similar concept to indicate missing values, the "NA" value. When the ncdf library reads in data set from a pre-existing file, all data values that equal that variable's missing value attribute appear to the R code as being "NA" values. When the R code writes values to a netCDF variable, any "NA" values are set to that variable's missing value before being written out. This makes the mapping between netCDF's "missing_value" attribute and R's "NA" values transparent to the user.
For this to work, though, the user still has to specify a missing value
for a variable. Usually this is specified when the variable is created,
as a required argument to ncvar_def
.
However, sometimes it is useful to add (or change) a missing value for variable
that already exists in a disk file. This function enables that.
David W. Pierce<EMAIL_ADDRESS>http://dwpierce.com/software
## Not run: # Make an example netCDF file with a given missing value. We will # then change the missing value in the file using ncvar_change_missval origMissVal <- -1. dimX <- ncdim_def( "X", "meters", 1:7 ) varAlt <- ncvar_def( "Altitude", "km", dimX, origMissVal ) ncnew <- nc_create( "transect.nc", varAlt ) data <- c(10.,2.,NA,1.,7.,NA,8.) ncvar_put( ncnew, varAlt, data ) nc_close(ncnew) # At this point, the actual data values in the netCDF # file will be: 10 2 -1 1 7 -1 8 # because the "NA" values were filled with the missing # value, -1. Also, the missing_value attribute of variable # "varAlt" will be equal to -1. # Now change the missing value to something else. Remember # we have to open the file as writable to be able to change # the missing value on disk! newMissVal <- 999.9 nc <- nc_open( "transect.nc", write=TRUE ) varname <- "Altitude" data <- ncvar_get( nc, varname ) # data now has: 10., 2., NA, 1., 7., NA, 8. print(data) ncvar_change_missval( nc, varname, newMissVal ) ncvar_put( nc, varname, data ) nc_close(nc) # Now, the actual data values in the netCDF file will be: # 10 2 999.9 1 7 999.9 8 # and the variables "missing_value" attributre will be 999.9 # **NOTE** that we had to explicitly read in the data and write # it out again in order for the on-disk missing values in the # data array to change! The on-disk missing_value attribute for # the variable is set automatically by this function, but it is # up to you whether or not you want to read in all the existing # data and change the values to the new missing value. ## End(Not run)

Man who served 10 years for attempted murder goes on trial for 2006 killing
YOKOHAMA — A 39-year-old man who served a 10-year prison term for attempted murder, went on trial at the Yokohama District Court on Tuesday for killing a 27-year-old woman in Kawasaki, Kanagawa Prefecture, in 2006.
According to the indictment by the Yokohama District Public Prosecutors Office, Hirokazu Suzuki stabbed Yuri Kuronuma in Kawasaki on Sept 23, 2006.
Suzuki, who was jailed for 10 years for attempting to kill a 40-year-old woman by stabbing her in the back in Kawasaki in April 2007, hinted at his involvement in Kuronuma's murder in a postcard he sent to the Kanagawa prefectural police in January 2016, Kyodo News reported.
He later admitted to the crime during voluntary questioning and was rearrested in October 2017 after his prison term ended, on suspicion of murdering Kuronuma. At the time, Suzuki said he decided to confess to the 2006 crime after suffering a stroke.
The indictment said Suzuki stabbed Kuronuma in the stomach and chest while they were on a sidewalk inside a tunnel in Kawasaki.
The move to charge him came after it was judged during a four-month evaluation which ended in March 2018 that he can be held criminally responsible.
In an opening statement Tuesday, Suzuki told the court that he meant to kill the woman when he stabbed her in the stomach but then contradicted himself and said there was no intent to kill when he stabbed her in the chest.
A verdict is expected to be handed down on Dec 13.

Atom is a free and open-source text and source code editor for macOS, Linux, and Microsoft Windows with support for plug-ins written in JavaScript, and embedded Git Control, developed by GitHub. Atom is a desktop application built using web technologies. Most of the extending packages have free software licenses and are community-built and maintained. Atom is based on Electron (formerly known as Atom Shell), a framework that enables cross-platform desktop applications using Chromium and Node.js. It is written in CoffeeScript and Less. Atom was released from beta, as version 1.0, on 25 June 2015. Its developers call it a "hackable text editor for the 21st Century". It is fully customizable in HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. Atom is a "hackable" text editor. This means it is customizable. There is an init script one can customize using CoffeeScript, a style sheet to customize the looks of Atom, and a keymap to map or re-map key combinations to commands. One can even make a package to wrap all of this functionality into a single package, written in their choice of CoffeeScript or JavaScript. Atom was developed by GitHub as a text editor. Facebook then developed the Nuclide and Atom IDE projects to turn Atom into an integrated development environment (IDE), but development stopped in December 2018. Like most other configurable text editors, Atom enables users to install third-party packages and themes to customize the features and looks of the editor. Packages can be installed, managed and published via Atom's package manager apm. Syntactic highlighting support for other languages than the default, can be installed through the packages, as well as the auto-complete function.
In computer technology, a console can mean different things depending on the context. It usually means a combination of a display monitor and an input device, usually a keyboard and mouse pair, which allows a user to input commands and receive visual output from a computer or computer system.


Let's look at the various parts of the Petstore application Swagger UI to see how they are defined.
The top part of the page shows general information about the REST interface:
The information is pulled from the {@link oajr.annotation.Rest#swagger() @Rest(swagger)} annotation.
| @Rest(
| path="/petstore",
| title="Petstore application",
| ...
| swagger=@Swagger("$F{PetStoreResource.json}"),
| ...
| )
| public class PetStoreResource extends BasicRestServlet {...}
In this particular case, the Swagger is pulled in from a localized Swagger JSON file located in the
org.apache.juneau.examples.rest.petstore package using the {@link oajr.vars.FileVar $F} variable.
| {
| "swagger": "2.0",
| "info": {
| "version": "1.0.0",
| "title": "Swagger Petstore",
| "termsOfService": "You are on your own.",
| "contact": {
| "name": "Juneau Development Team",
| "email"<EMAIL_ADDRESS>| "url": "http://juneau.apache.org"
| },
| "license": {
| "name": "Apache 2.0",
| "url": "http://www.apache.org/licenses/LICENSE-2.0.html"
| }
| },
| "externalDocs": {
| "description": "Find out more about Juneau",
| "url": "http://juneau.apache.org"
| },
| ...
| }
Note that the {@link oajr.vars.FileVar $F} variable allows for request-locale-sensitive name matching so that you can provide
localized Swagger information.
The {@link oajr.vars.FileVar $F} variable simply expands to a string to fill the {@link oajr.annotation.Swagger#value() @Swagger(value)}
annotation.
You could equivalently embed JSON directly into your annotation like so:
| @Rest(
| path="/petstore",
| title="Petstore application",
| ...
| swagger=@Swagger(
| // Raw Simplified JSON.
| // Values are concatenated.
| "{",
| "swagger: '2.0',",
| "version: '1.0.0',",
| ...
| "}"
| ),
| ...
| )
| public class PetStoreResource extends BasicRestServlet {...}
However, a more typical (and less error-prone) scenario is to define all of your Swagger as annotations:
| @Rest(
| path="/petstore",
| title="Petstore application",
| ...
| swagger=@Swagger(
| version="1.0.0",
| title="Swagger Petstore",
| termsOfService="You are on your own.",
| contact=@Contact(
| name="Juneau Development Team",
|<EMAIL_ADDRESS>| url="http://juneau.apache.org"
| ),
| license=@License(
| name="Apache 2.0",
| url="http://www.apache.org/licenses/LICENSE-2.0.html"
| ),
| externalDocs=@ExternalDocs(
| description="Find out more about Juneau",
| url="http://juneau.apache.org"
| )
| ),
| ...
| )
| public class PetStoreResource extends BasicRestServlet {...}
All annotations support SVL Variables, so you could for example
pull localized strings from resource bundles using {@link oajr.vars.LocalizationVar $L} variables.
| @Rest(
| path="/petstore",
| title="Petstore application",
| messages="nls/MyMessages",
| ...
| swagger=@Swagger(
| version="1.0.0",
| title="$L{myTitle}",
| termsOfService="$L{myTermsOfService}",
| contact=@Contact(
| name="$L{myTeam}",
|<EMAIL_ADDRESS>| url="http://juneau.apache.org"
| ),
| license=@License(
| name="Apache 2.0",
| url="http://www.apache.org/licenses/LICENSE-2.0.html"
| ),
| externalDocs=@ExternalDocs(
| description="$L{myExternalDocsDescription}",
| url="http://juneau.apache.org"
| )
| ),
| ...
| )
| public class PetStoreResource extends BasicRestServlet {...}
A third option is to define your Swagger information in your {@link oajr.annotation.Rest#messages @Rest(messages)} resource
bundle using predefined Swagger keywords:
| PetStoreResource.version = 1.0.0
| PetStoreResource.title = Swagger Petstore
| PetStoreResource.termsOfService = You are on your own.
| PetStoreResource.contact = {name:'Juneau Development Team', email:'dev@juneau.apache.org',...}
| PetStoreResource.license = {name:'Apache 2.0',...}
| PetStoreResource.externalDocs = {description:'Find out more about Juneau',...}
Information defined in multiple locations are merged into a single set of data.
When the same information is provided in multiple locations, the following order-of-precedence is used:
- Java annotations
- Resource bundle
- Swagger JSON file

My first Firefox OS app
Almost 7 months has passed since I wrote my last post about Firefox OS. Many things have happened since. Mozilla has improved its marketplace and on 23rd of April Geeksphone began to sale the first Firefox OS smartphones for developers.
I told myself that it was then time to become familiar with the deployment of applications on Firefox OS.
What is a Firefox OS App?
As a reminder, Firefox OS is not a new platform, the platform is the Web.
A Firefox OS's application is completely written using HTML5 and Open Web standards.
Creating an application for Firefox OS is a very familiar task for a web developer. There is
no specific SDK or proprietary extension.
With regard to application deployment, strategy is very similar to what exists on the
Chrome Web Store. Applications are distributed in one of two forms: hosted or packaged.
Hosted app
An hosted app is just a web app hosted somewhere on the Web. In order to make an existing web app install on Firefox OS, it requires very little modification. One simply needs to create an Open Web App manifest, which is a simple JSON file that describes the application, and serve it with a special Content-Type
(application/x-web-app-manifest+json
) header.
Some Web servers automatically associates this Content-Type
to files that end with the .webapp
extension.
With express, this association can be registered as follows:
express.static.mime.define({ 'application/x-web-app-manifest+json': [ 'webapp' ] });
Packaged app
A packaged app is a zip file that contains all the code, assets and the Open Web App manifest of the application.
One of the main advantage of a packaged app is the fact that it can have access to sensitive API of the device on which it runs.
There are 3 types of packaged app that defined the level of authorization that the app can have on the device.
Open Web App manifest
The manifest file can contains a lot of properties but not all of them are mandatory. The number of properties that should be defined vary mostly by the type of app (hosted/packaged), the permission required and the interaction that the app will have with the other apps installed on the devices (see Web Activities below).
Hosted or Packaged app
The decision is quite easy to make. This will essentially depend of functionalities that will provide the application. Read the App permissions page on the wiki.
Web Activities
Web Activities define how the application on the device can exchange data or delegate action to another. Web Activities have not been standardized by the W3C yet. Indeed it's a counter proposal to the Google's Web Intents specification. You can read this Web Activities vs Web Intents comparison for more informations. Don't panic it seems that Mozilla and Google are talking about how they can merge the two proposals.
Distribution
Once your app is ready, you can validate your manifest before submiting it to the Firefox marketplace. The Firefox model for app distribution is Open, so you can expect to see alternative markets in a near future. It is even possible to install an app by visiting the app page.
Is HTML5 ready for app?
We have read many things about it. The most significant episode is probably the one where Mark Zuckerberg said that HTML5 for mobile was a 'mistake'. As it has been highlighted by Sencha with Fastbook, that was perhaps more a lack of knowledge that the technology itself.
Anyway, I think that the reason Facebook and LinkedIn have failed with their HTML5 application is more likely the fact that neither one nor the other have the means to change or improve the platform.
The big advantage of Firefox OS is that Mozilla has a lot of experience with the Web and they can afford to spend the necessary specifications to make HTML5 a better platform for application development.

Continue ReadingThis will be my first blog post one of the site I am making from scratch to find a job in Berlin come summer 2014 as well as to represent what I am, hopefully this works out. So let me first lay out a few ideas about what I want to have on my site. I have gotten pretty good and making simple template based websites and making them work and look professional. The phrase professional...

Wiki ▸ [[API Reference]] ▸ [[Core]] ▸ Namespaces
SVG has a different namespace from HTML, so D3 provides a few tools to simplify dealing with namespaces.
# d3.ns.prefix
The map of registered namespace prefixes. The default value is:
javascript
{
svg: "http://www.w3.org/2000/svg",
xhtml: "http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml",
xlink: "http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink",
xml: "http://www.w3.org/XML/1998/namespace",
xmlns: "http://www.w3.org/2000/xmlns/"
}
Additional prefixes may be assigned as needed to create elements or attributes in other namespaces.
# d3.ns.qualify(name)
Qualifies the specified name, which may have a namespace prefix. If the name contains a colon (“:”), the substring before the colon is interpreted as the namespace prefix, which must be registered in d3.ns.prefix; the return value is an object with space
and local
attributes containing the full namespace URL and the local name. For example, the result of qualify(“svg:text”) is:
javascript
{space: "http://www.w3.org/2000/svg", local: "text"}
If the name does not contain a colon, this function merely returns the input name. This function is used internally to decide whether to use a namespaced method (such as createElementNS
) or a non-namespaced equivalent.
