I came to the decision to write such an editor after getting completely sick of vi, both from a feature and user interface point of view. I needed an editor that I could use through a telnet connection or a phone line and that wouldn’t fire off a full-blown LITHP1 operating system just to do some editing. A concise overview of the main features follows: • three user interfaces: control keystrokes, command line, and menus; keystrokes and menus are completely configurable; • syntax highlighting; • full support for UTF-8 files, including multiple-column characters; • 64-bit

  • Unix Command Line; Editors
    Unix command line; editors Karl Broman Biostatistics & Medical Informatics, UW–Madison kbroman.org github.com/kbroman @kwbroman Course web: kbroman.org/AdvData My goal in this lecture is to convince you that (a) command-line-based tools are the things to focus on, (b) you need to choose a powerful, universal text editor (you’ll use it a lot), (c) you want to be comfortable and skilled with each. For your work to be reproducible, it needs to be code-based; don’t touch that mouse! Windows vs. Mac OSX vs. Linux Remote vs. Not 2 The Windows operating system is not very programmer-friendly. Mac OSX isn’t either, but under the hood, it’s just unix. Don’t touch the mouse! Open a terminal window and start typing. I do most of my work directly on my desktop or laptop. You might prefer to work remotely on a server, instead. But I can’t stand having any lag in looking at graphics. If you use Windows... Consider Git Bash (or Cygwin) or turn on the Windows subsystem for linux 3 Cygwin is an effort to get Unix command-line tools in Windows. Git Bash combines git (for version control) and bash (the unix shell); it’s simpler to deal with than Cygwin. Linux is now accessible in Windows 10, but you have to enable it. If you use a Mac... Consider Homebrew and iTerm2 Also the XCode command line tools 4 Homebrew is a packaging system; iTerm2 is a Terminal replacement. The XCode command line tools are a must for most unixy things on a Mac.

  • BUGS Code for Item Response Theory
    JSS Journal of Statistical Software August 2010, Volume 36, Code Snippet 1. http://www.jstatsoft.org/ BUGS Code for Item Response Theory S. McKay Curtis University of Washington Abstract I present BUGS code to fit common models from item response theory (IRT), such as the two parameter logistic model, three parameter logisitic model, graded response model, generalized partial credit model, testlet model, and generalized testlet models. I demonstrate how the code in this article can easily be extended to fit more complicated IRT models, when the data at hand require a more sophisticated approach. Specifically, I describe modifications to the BUGS code that accommodate longitudinal item response data. Keywords: education, psychometrics, latent variable model, measurement model, Bayesian inference, Markov chain Monte Carlo, longitudinal data. 1. Introduction In this paper, I present BUGS (Gilks, Thomas, and Spiegelhalter 1994) code to fit several models from item response theory (IRT). Several different software packages are available for fitting IRT models. These programs include packages from Scientific Software International (du Toit 2003), such as PARSCALE (Muraki and Bock 2005), BILOG-MG (Zimowski, Mu- raki, Mislevy, and Bock 2005), MULTILOG (Thissen, Chen, and Bock 2003), and TESTFACT (Wood, Wilson, Gibbons, Schilling, Muraki, and Bock 2003). The Comprehensive R Archive Network (CRAN) task view \Psychometric Models and Methods" (Mair and Hatzinger 2010) contains a description of many different R packages that can be used to fit IRT models in the R computing environment (R Development Core Team 2010). Among these R packages are ltm (Rizopoulos 2006) and gpcm (Johnson 2007), which contain several functions to fit IRT models using marginal maximum likelihood methods, and eRm (Mair and Hatzinger 2007), which contains functions to fit several variations of the Rasch model (Fischer and Molenaar 1995).

  • Pipe and Filter Architectural Style Group Number: 5 Group Members: Fan Zhao 20571694 Yu Gan 20563500 Yuxiao Yu 20594369
    Pipe and Filter Architectural Style Group Number: 5 Group Members: Fan Zhao 20571694 Yu Gan 20563500 Yuxiao Yu 20594369 1. Have its own vocabulary for its components and connectors? (define) The Pipe and Filter is an architectural pattern for stream processing. It consists of one or more components called filters. These filters will transform or filter ​ ​ data and then pass it on via connectors called pipes. These filters, which merely ​ ​ consume and produce data, can be seen as functions like sorting and counting. All of these filters can work at the same time. Also, every pipe connected to a filter has its own role in the function of the filter. When data is sent from the producer (pump), it ​ ​ goes through the pipes and filters, and arrives the destination (sink). The pump can ​ ​ be a static text file or a keyboard input. The sink can be a file, a database or a computer screen. 2. Impose specific topological constraints? (diagram) Figure 1 shows a basic structure of Pipe and Filter architecture style. In this example, there are five filters and eight pipes. Each filter will get input from one or more pipes and pass it via pipes. The combination of several filters and pipes can be regarded as a “big” filter. Figure 2 is an specific example using Pipe and Filter architecture style. This example demonstrates a simple process of making sandwiches. To begin with, the first 4 filters can work simultaneously for preparation. Once they are done, the 5th filter can get the output and combine them together. Next, a following filter will add sauce to it and pass it to customer through a pipe.

  • 101 Useful Linux Commands - Haydenjames.Io
    101 Useful Linux Commands - haydenjames.io Some of these commands require elevated permissions (sudo) to run. Enjoy! 1. Execute the previous command used: !! 2. Execute a previous command starting with a specific letter. Example: !s 3. Short way to copy or backup a file before you edit it. For example, copy nginx.conf cp nginx.conf{,.bak} 4. Toggle between current directory and last directory cd - 5. Move to parent (higher level) directory. Note the space! cd .. 6. Go to home directory cd ~ 7. Go to home directory cd $HOME 8. Go to home directory (when used alone) cd 9. Set permissions to 755. Corresponds to these permissions: (-rwx-r-x-r-x), arranged in this sequence: (owner-group-other) chmod 755 <filename> 10. Add execute permission to all users. chmod a+x <filename> 11. Changes ownership of a file or directory to . chown <username> 12. Make a backup copy of a file (named file.backup) cp <file> <file>.backup 13. Copy file1, use it to create file2 cp <file1> <file2> 14. Copy directory1 and all its contents (recursively) into directory2 cp -r <directory1> <directory2>/ 15. Display date date 16. Zero the sdb drive. You may want to use GParted to format the drive afterward. You need elevated permissions to run this (sudo). dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sdb 17. Display disk space usage df -h 18. Take detailed messages from OS and input to text file dmesg>dmesg.txt 19. Display a LOT of system information. I usually pipe output to less. You need elevated permissions to run this (sudo).
