import numpy as np import matplotlib.pyplot as plt x_pos = np.linspace(0,5,10) y_pos = np.linspace(0,10,10) x_dir = y_dir = np.zeros((10,10)) plt.quiver(x_pos, y_pos, x_dir, y_dir, scale=1)

If you want to change the section name from Algorithm to Procedure, you just need to use the \floatname command while the code remains unchanged. The code for an algorithm: \begin{algorithm} \caption{Test}   \begin{algorithmic}[1]     \State Hello!   \end{algorithmic} \end{algorithm} Output: Now to change the label, add the following command before \begin{document} . \floatname{algorithm}{Procedure} The code remains the same. Output: This LaTeX tip relabels floats produced by the algorithm package from Algorithm to Procedure using the \floatname command, without changing the algorithm body itself. It is handy when a venue or style guide expects a particular caption label. The same \floatname approach works for renaming other float types too.

Error: If you are getting build failures in Xcode for a C++ program with similar errors, then try this fix. 15 duplicate symbols for architecture x86_64 ld: symbol(s) not found for architecture x86_64 clang: error: linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation) Solution: You can avoid declaring variables in the header and move them to implementation. Or you can declare all the variables in the header file as static.

Pi-hole is a network-wide ad-blocking DNS server. iCloud Private Replay is a secure internet relay service. While Pi-hole can protect you from unwanted tracking and advertisements, iCloud Private Relay provides you with privacy when you browse the web in Safari. When you join the Pi-hole network with a device with iCloud Private Relay enabled, Pi-hole returns NXDOMAIN response for mask.icloud.com and mask-h2.icloud.com as per Apple recommendation. To disable this feature in Pi-hole and allow the functioning of iCloud Private Relay, go to /etc/pihole/pihole-FTL.conf and set  BLOCK_ICLOUD_PR=false .

This is a sample code to generate SHA256 in C++ using CryptoPP. For the first string in a vector: std::vector<std::string> stringVector{"abcde", "fghij", "klmno", "pqrst", "uvwxyz"}; byte digest[SHA256::DIGESTSIZE]; SHA256().CalculateDigest(digest, (const byte*)stringVector.data(), stringVector.size()); For an entire vector of string: std::vector<std::string> stringVector{"abcde", "fghij", "klmno", "pqrst", "uvwxyz"}; HexEncoder encoder(new FileSink(std::cout)); std::string digest; SHA256 hash; for(auto str: stringVector) {  hash.Update((const byte*)str.data(), str.size());  }  digest.resize(hash.DigestSize());  hash.Final((byte*)&digest[0]); std::cout << "Digest: "; StringSource(digest, true, new Redirector(encoder)); std::cout << std::endl; This sample computes a SHA-256 hash in C++ with the Crypto++ library, applied to data held in a vector of s...
