I am very new to regex and learning by practice. I wrote the following regex for finding a number inside a string of characters, however, it returns nothing. Why is that?   string = "hello world &amp; bello stack 12456";  findObj = re.match(r'[0-9]+',string,re.I);  if findObj:     print findObj.group(); else:     print "nothing matched"   Regards
What is the difference between the search() and match() functions in the ?  I've read the  (), but I never seem to remember it.  I keep having to look it up and re-learn it.  I'm hoping that someone will answer it clearly with examples so that (perhaps) it will stick in my head.  Or at least I'll have a better place to return with my question and it will take less time to re-learn it.
Windows 7 System process reading/writing like crazy I have a problem that my windows 7 computer sometimes starts accessing the disk like crazy for maybe 10 minutes at a time. The process in question is the "system" process. I have disabled superfetch and hibernation on my computer, if that makes any difference. I disabled those to see if they were the cause of the problems, but no change. I have 6 GB of RAM and only the web browser was started when I took the screenshot, so I don't think it was thrashing due to page faults.  Any ideas on how to find the cause of this? Simple UV Mesh Unwrapping Scale issue Is it possible to have connecting loop lines (like algorithm2e) in algorithmic? Precise connection between complexification of $\mathfrak{su}(2)$, $\mathfrak{so}(1,3)$ and $\mathfrak{sl}(2, \mathbb{C})$ Was just wondering if there is any solid data available as to how many people are using ubuntu. I was also interested in the attrition rate with ubuntu users, etc. how to add xsl attribute Let $b>0.$ Evaluate $\lim_{n \to \infty} \int^{b}_{0} \frac{\sin nx}{nx}dx$ I'm stumped at the last part of this problem. Could anyone advise, please? Thank you.  Here is  my  proof.   Define  $f: \mathbb{R} \to \mathbb{R}$ by $$ f(x) = \left\{\begin{aligned} &amp;\frac{\sin nx}{nx}&amp;&amp;, x \neq0 \\ &amp;1 &amp;&amp;, x=0 \end{aligned} \right.$$   Hence, $$f(x) = \sum^{\infty}_{k=0}(-1)^k\frac{(nx)^{2k}}{(2k+1)!} , \forall x \in \mathbb{R} \mbox{ and } f \in {\mathscr R[0,b]}.$$  $$\int^{b}_{0} \frac{\sin nx}{nx}dx = \int^{b}_{0}f(x)dx=\sum^{\infty}_{k=0}\int^{b}_{0}(-1)^k\frac{(nx)^{2k}}{(2k+1)!}dx= \sum^{\infty}_{n=0}(-1)^k\frac{(n)^{2k}b^{2k+1}}{(2k+1)(2k+1)!}$$  $$\lim_{n \to \infty} \sum^{\infty}_{k=0}(-1)^k\frac{(n)^{2k}b^{2k+1}}{(2k+1)(2k+1)!}=  ?$$ Let $F$ be a finite field. How do I prove that the order of $F$ is always of order $p^n$ where $p$ is prime? Is it better to difference a series (assuming it needs it) before using an Arima OR better to use the d parameter within Arima?  I was surprised how different the fitted values are depending on which route is taken with the same model and data. Or am I doing something incorrectly?  install.packages("forecast") library(forecast)  wineindT&lt;-window(wineind, start=c(1987,1), end=c(1994,8)) wineindT_diff &lt;-diff(wineindT)  #coefficients and other measures are similar modA&lt;-Arima(wineindT,order=c(1,1,0)) summary(modA) modB&lt;-Arima(wineindT_diff,order=c(1,0,0)) summary(modB)  #fitted values from modA A&lt;-forecast.Arima(modA,1)$fitted  #fitted from modB, setting initial value to the first value in the original series B&lt;-diffinv(forecast.Arima(modB,1)$fitted,xi=wineindT[1])   plot(A, col="red") lines(B, col="blue")   ADD:  Please note I am differencing the series once and fitting arima (1,0,0) then I am fitting arima (1,1,0) to the original series. I am (I think) reversing the differencing on the fitted values for the arima(1,0,0) on the differenced file.   I am comparing the fitted values - not the predictions.  Here is the plot (red is arima(1,1,0) and blue is the arima (1,0,0) on the differenced series after changing back to the original scale)  :    Response to Dr. Hyndman's Answer:  1) Can you illustrate in R code what I would need to do in order to get the two fitted values (and presumably forecasts) to match (allowing for small difference due to your first point in your answer) between Arima (1,1,0) and Arima(1,0,0) on the manually differenced series? I assume this has to do with the mean not being included in modA, but I am not entirely sure how to proceed.  2) Regarding your #3. I know I am missing the obvious, but are not $\hat{X}_t = X_{t-1} + \phi(X_{t-1}-X_{t-2}) $ and $\hat{Y}_t = \phi (X_{t-1}-X_{t-2})$ the same when $\hat{Y}_t$ is defined as $\hat{X}_t - X_{t-1}$? Are you saying I am "undifferencing" incorrectly? Status of B1/B2 visa after citizenship change?

What's the simplest way to wrap extruded text around a cylinder? What's the simplest way to wrap extruded text around a cylinder that has a specific radius (for example, the label on a can of baked beans)?  I've tried using the Simple Deform modifier, but that (a) doesn't allow you to choose a radius and (b) requires the text to be converted to a curve.  I'm trying to model a cylinder with radius of 30, which has a line of embossed text that runs around the curved side, facing outward.  Thanks! Left inverse implies right inverse in a finite ring Let $R$ be a finite ring with identity $1$, and assume $\exists x,y\in R$ such that $ xy=1$. How can I show it implies $yx=1$? I don't want to do this through trial and error, and the best way I have found so far was to start dividing from 1.     $n! = \text {a really big number}$   Ex. $n! = 9999999$   Is there a way to approximate n or solve for n through a formula of some sort?  Update (Here is my attempt):  Stirling's Approximation: $$n! \approx \sqrt{2 \pi n} \left( \dfrac{n}{e} \right ) ^ n$$  So taking the log:     $(2\cdot \pi\cdot n)^{1/2} \cdot n^n \cdot e^{-n}$       $(2\cdot \pi)^{1/2} \cdot n^{1/2} \cdot n^n \cdot e^{-n}$       $.5\log (2\pi) + .5\log n + n\log n \cdot -n \log e$       $.5\log (2\pi) + \log n(.5+n) - n$   Now to solve for n:     $.5\log (2\pi) + \log n(.5+n) - n = r$       $\log n(.5+n) - n = r - .5 \log (2\pi)$   Now I am a little caught up here. How to modify an invalid '/etc/sudoers' file? How do I edit an invalid sudoers file? It throws the below error and it's not allowing me to edit again to fix it.

This isn't about the level 20 ultimate talent.  There is a brief "arming phase" where Nova locks onto her target before shooting three bullets.  When something happens to her target during that phase (allied Devouring Maw, Divine Shield, etc.), sometimes Triple Tap is placed on the full 100 second cooldown, other times it is placed on a much shorter 10 second cooldown.  What triggers this 10 second cooldown?   Is this a timing issue?  I believe if she is interrupted after the shots start going out, Triple Tap is always put on the full cooldown.  Maybe I'm just seeing the ability get blocked right as the first shot goes out? Is this ability-specific?  Does stunning Nova have a different effect than a Devouring Maw or Void Prison on her target?  And is that different from a Divine Shield/Sanctification on the target? Is this determined by whether the line to the target was interrupted by an ally or an enemy hero?  For example, is there a difference between an allied Void Prison and an enemy Void Prison on the target? Is it wrong to say $ \sqrt{x} \times \sqrt{x} =\pm x,\forall x \in \mathbb{R}$? Is it wrong to say $$ \sqrt{x} \times \sqrt{x} =\sqrt{x^2}= \pm x$$ I am quite sure that  $\sqrt{(x)^2} = \pm(x)$  But, does $\sqrt{x } \times \sqrt{x} =- (x)$ doesn't holds in $\mathbb{R}$ but if we assume $\mathbb{C}$ it holds right?

Salesforce DX daily limits As a package developer scratch orgs look like a great solution for automated CI testing and Salesforce has even done some great demos using Github and TravisCI to show automatically testing code using the DX CLI. However, in reviewing the details of DX, it looks like the limit is currently set to 50 orgs a day. If we want to test pull requests against 5 different org configurations, this limits us to 10 test runs a day. On a moderately sized team, this is going to be a tough limit to deal with. Has anyone had any success in working around this limit (or heard of any planned limit increases in the future). My initial thoughts are:   Get Salesforce to increase the limit (does not seem likely since this is a very young feature) Reuse scratch orgs for a period of time (this would require a good way to clean them and some savvy CI build code) Run fewer tests (not going to go over well the first time a bug for a specific org configuration slips through) Clarification of the "25D" option in ogr2ogr
