I have a Script(toolbox) to reorder the fields into a file geodatabse and the output is a new feature class with fields in the order specified, is there any way to replace the existing feature by the new input created?  I'm using ArcGIS 10.2 here is my script :  import os,string,sys  try:     import arcgisscripting     gp = arcgisscripting.create() except:     import win32com.client     gp = win32com.client.Dispatch("esriGeoprocessing.GpDispatch.1")   FC_In = sys.argv[1] NewOrder = sys.argv[2] FC_Out_WS = sys.argv[3] FC_Out_Name = sys.argv[4]  strFields = gp.listfields(FC_In)  strNewOrder = NewOrder  Layers = [""]  # Get Field Collection into List Fields = gp.listfields(FC_In)   NewOrder = string.split(strNewOrder,";") print Fields print NewOrder  x=0 #NewOrder enumerator  y=0 #Layers enumerator (first)  # Cycles through the input feature class creating field collections while x&lt;len(NewOrder):     Fields.Reset()     Field = Fields.Next()     while Field:         FieldName = str(Field.name)         if x&lt;len(NewOrder) and NewOrder[x].lower() == FieldName.lower():              Layers[y] = Layers[y] + FieldName + " " + NewOrder[x] + " VISIBLE"             x=x+1         else:             Layers[y] = Layers[y] + FieldName + " " + FieldName + " HIDDEN"           Field = Fields.Next()          if Field:             Layers[y] = Layers[y] + "; "             FieldName = str(Field.name)         else:             print Layers[y]             Layers.append("")             y=y+1             Layers[y]=""   # Use Field collections to create Layers with proper order until all fields have been used z=0 #Layers enumerator (second) LayerList = "" for Layer in Layers:     if Layer &lt;&gt; "":         if LayerList &lt;&gt; "":             LayerList=LayerList + ";"         LayerList=LayerList + "Layer" + str(z)         print LayerList         gp.MakeFeatureLayer(FC_In, "Layer" + str(z),"#","#",Layer)         gp.addmessage(gp.getmessages()+ "\n")         z=z+1   #Collect Info about Input Feature Class dsc = gp.describe(FC_In) fc_in_stype = dsc.shapetype fc_in_sr = dsc.spatialreference  # Create new empty Feature class with desired fields  try:     gp.CreateFeatureClas(FC_Out_WS,FC_Out_Name,fc_in_stype,LayerList,"#","#",fc_in_sr)     gp.addmessage(gp.getmessages()+ "\n") except:     gp.addmessage(gp.getmessages()+ "\n")  # Append Records to new feature class print FC_Out_WS + "\\" + FC_Out_Name print FC_In gp.append_management(FC_In, FC_Out_WS + "\\" + FC_Out_Name) gp.addmessage(gp.getmessages()+ "\n")  del gp
If I have a shapefile or geodatabase featureclass that has fields that I want to permanently reorder, is there a tool, script, or utility that will help me quickly accomplish this task? Generally I know you have to create a new field, then populate it with the old values, then delete the old field.  I am hoping there is something already created out there that will help with this. Assuming you don't have FME or another ETL tool available, what is the next best suggestion? This is NOT a view level change (ie- drag/drop the fields in order), but rather write out to a new shapefile or featureclass.
I'm looking for the noun form of "person with intermediate skill". For example, in the context of a particular activity, "person with no skill" might be designated a novice, and "person with much skill" might be designated an expert. However I know of no such word in between these two extremes.   My only thought is amateur, which has a distinct meaning from describing level of skill, although skill level can often be inferred. I'm looking for a better solution.  EDIT: due to the attention this question has received, I'll try to offer some clarification in order to reduce repeat questions.   "Journeyman" would certainly not work. I am a software developer by profession. However the word I'm looking for should hopefully be profession-agnostic. I am trying to designate the skill level of the person that some learning material might be appropriate for. The word that I'm looking for follows the preposition "for".   For Beginners  For [word for intermediate-skilled person] For Experts  Sorry, but even after all the great answers, I'm still learning towards "amateur" even though it is technically incorrect. Also, the word should not be so esoteric that only people with English degrees know what it means. Keep the ideas coming! Office 2016 Advanced Setup I just started the Office 2016 Setup/Installation on my Windows 10 PC. The installation worked fine and started automatically showing only this dialog:    But there are no additional settings possible! I need to choose which programs I want to install and also add additional tools that are often missing when doing a default installation.  How can I change the Office Installation Settings?   Choose programs to install Add/Remove Office Tools (Maybe) Office installation directory   When I check after the installation in the the windows settings, the Office can only be uninstalled - no modifications available: Proving that $1+x^py^{1-p} \le (1+x)^p(1+y)^{1-p}$ I'd like to show that $1+x^py^{1-p} \le (1+x)^p(1+y)^{1-p}$ for all $x,y \ge 0$ and $p \in [0,1]$. I started out by defining a function $f(x,y)=(1+x)^p(1+y)^{1-p}$ and checking for critical points, but there are none in the domain I'm interested in. I think I'm probably missing a slick application of Jensen's or Holder's inequalities, but so far a proof eludes me. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Disk storage graphic and usage amount inconsistent? What are Click packages? I noticed that Ubuntu SDK recently had some updates and it installed a program named "Click". I would like to know what they are and how to use them.  Also, would they make Debian packaging easier? When to use 'which' or 'in which' or 'that' (as relative pronouns)? This is an attempt to write a canonical QA for this issue, as per the Meta post:   I expect it to be periodically edited with the goal of becoming a comprehensive information resource.  I have a MacBook Pro that has a key(Shift, Return,   Command, P, etc.) that doesn’t respond when pressed or is stuck in the down position.    It's possible that my favorite beverage was spilled (or some other liquid damage).  It's also possible that I have no idea what happened.  It was working yesterday and suddenly today it's no longer working.  Is there any way to bypass or remap the key?  Can I  have the system ignore it completely?  (This question can also apply to external USB keyboards or the Bluetooth keyboards) After Doomsday was defeated, a spec-ops team sent to the Kryptionian ship in Metropolis found Luthor submerged in water, in front of a... thing, which "held" three metal cubes. The thing looked up, roars, and dissipates into thin air.    What the hell was that all about? I am really confused. What was that creature and what was Luthor doing with it? How to make a blank page in Google Chrome at start-up? I have seen this question now many times and every question here and on other forum points to  experimental tutorial by . Now sadly a lot of answers are invalid right now because this central link is down. I couldn't find anything by Googling so if anybody has a fork of the tutorial or a second source that would be great? The link can't be gone for too long, I saw an answer with it 4 months ago.  The only other thing I have found is , but it also references the now missing tutorial. Any ideas how to find it?

How to find the shortest string in a list in Python There's a story my grandpa use to tell me when I was younger, about the sole survivor of of an attack on a mining vessel in space. The man lives in space for months/years, ignored by the company he worked for and never rescued. Then when he thinks he is being rescued, it's actually another set of raiders who attack him and kidnap him.  He then wakes up in captivity in some sort of prison inside of an asteroid, and has a word tattooed on his forehead. My grandpa called him Ronin (that's what the tattoo on his forehead said) but I don't know what the character's real name is. Anyways, he learns that he has the ability to teleport after having a brush with death and decides to make his way back to Earth so that he can exact revenge on the mining company who abandoned him and left him floating to die.  Does anyone know what this story or book may be? My grandpa told it to me when I was little, he said that he got it from a book he use to love reading when he was younger. I'm assuming the book is very old (possibly pre 1940's as he was born in the 20s). I can't ask him as he is no longer alive. I'm also unsure as to whether or not all the details in the story he told me, are the same as in the original. What is the difference between a "link function" and a "canonical link function" for GLM What's the difference between terms 'link function' and 'canonical link function'? Also, are there any (theoretical) advantages of using one over the other?  For example, a binary response variable can be modeled using many link functions such as logit, probit, etc. But, logit here is considered the "canonical" link function. Proof that $n\Bbb Z \leq \Bbb Z$ and are the only subgroups of $\Bbb Z$ My challenge is      Prove that if $n = 0,1,2,\ldots$ and $n\Bbb Z = \lbrace nk: k \in \Bbb Z \rbrace$, show that $n\Bbb Z$ is a subgroup of $\Bbb Z$ and are the only subgroups.   I handled the first point by saying that  i) Identity is 0, and $0\in n\Bbb Z$ and $0 \in \Bbb Z$  ii) For any $a,b \in n\Bbb Z$ $a+b = na_2 + nb_2 = n(a_2+b_2) \in n \Bbb Z$  iii) For any $na \in n\Bbb Z$, its inverse $n(-a) \in n\Bbb Z$.  For the second point, I said that all of the subgroups should be infinite, because for any finite group the largest element $a+a \notin H$, where $H$ is the potential subgroup, which is a contradiction. So $H$ must be of infinite order. For any $a \in H, -a$ should also be in $H$. The difference between any $a,b \in H$ should also be in $H$, i.e. $(a-b) \in H$. This leaves only the whole group or any group of the form $n\Bbb Z$.  Is my proof complete? I got two mails from the UK embassy in Abu, saying your visa application has been concluded. I'm really confused, did I get the visa or not? What could the possible results be? Inverse function of $x^x$ How can I find the inverse function of $f(x) = x^x$? I cannot seem to find the inverse of this function, or any function in which there is both an $x$ in the exponent as well as the base. I have tried using logs, differentiating, etc, etc, but to no avail.
