FWIW: I didn't produce the content presented here (the outline from Edmond Lau's book). I've just copy-pasted it from somewhere over the Internet, but I cannot remember what exactly the original source is. I was also not able to find the author's name, so I cannot give him/her the proper credits.

What's an Effective Engineer?

Studying for a Tech Interview Sucks, so Here's a Cheat Sheet to Help

This list is meant to be a both a quick guide and reference for further research into these topics. It's basically a summary of that comp sci course you never took or forgot about, so there's no way it can cover everything in depth. It also will be available as a gist on Github for everyone to edit and add to.

Data Structure Basics

Array

Definition:

Stores data elements based on an sequential, most commonly 0 based, index.
Based on tuples from set theory.

This is a six part series, taking you through stages of designing and creating reusable visualizations with d3.js

All visualizations have the same functionality, showcase the individual points with a bar chart and sum up the selected bars.

	#!/bin/bash
	TARGETDIR=$1
	if [ "$TARGETDIR" = "" ]; then
	TARGETDIR=$(python -c 'import os; print os.path.realpath("local")')
	fi
	mkdir -p $TARGETDIR

	curl -LO https://github.com/libevent/libevent/releases/download/release-2.0.22-stable/libevent-2.0.22-stable.tar.gz

	subparsers = cli.add_subparsers(dest="subcommand")


	def argument(name_or_flags, *kwargs):
	"""Convenience function to properly format arguments to pass to the
	subcommand decorator.

	#!/bin/sh
	# iterm_open_with - open a URL, file from CWD, full path, or path with linenumber in default app or Sublime Text if text file
	# For usage with iTerm2:
	# In iTerm's Preferences > Profiles > Default > Advanced > Semantic History,
	# choose "Run command..." and enter "/your/path/to/iterm_open_with \5 \1 \2".
	# Usage: iterm_open_with $(pwd) filename [linenumber]
	# $(pwd) = current working directory (either use `pwd` or $PWD)
	# filename = filename to open
	# lineno = line number
	pwd=$1

	#!/usr/bin/env python
	"""
	Starts a Tornado static file server in a given directory.
	To start the server in the current directory:

	tserv .

	Then go to http://localhost:8000 to browse the directory.

	Use the --prefix option to add a prefix to the served URL,

	#! /usr/bin/env python

	""" Convert values between RGB hex codes and xterm-256 color codes.

	Nice long listing of all 256 colors and their codes. Useful for
	developing console color themes, or even script output schemes.

	console.log(window); // log the "window" object to the console
