Php – calculating sum in objects

objectPHP

I am in need to do this thing:
I have an object like below, but i am in need to do the sum of the numbers of objects like object1_(anything), object2_(anything)

stdClass Object
(
    [object1_2012_06_12] => 16
    [object2_2012_06_12] => 10
    [object1_2012_06_11] => 16
    [object2_2012_06_11] => 10
)

For examaple: sum of object1_(anything) will be (object1_2012_06_12 + object1_2012_06_11) = (16+16)=32

You can cast your object to array:

$sum = 0;
foreach ((array)$myobj as $v) {
  $sum += intval($v);
}

Or as suggested by @MarkBaker:

$sum = array_sum((array)$myobj);

Python – Calling a function of a module by using its name (a string)

Assuming module foo with method bar:

import foo
method_to_call = getattr(foo, 'bar')
result = method_to_call()

You could shorten lines 2 and 3 to:

result = getattr(foo, 'bar')()

if that makes more sense for your use case.

You can use getattr in this fashion on class instance bound methods, module-level methods, class methods... the list goes on.

Javascript – How to determine equality for two JavaScript objects

Why reinvent the wheel? Give Lodash a try. It has a number of must-have functions such as isEqual().

_.isEqual(object, other);

It will brute force check each key value - just like the other examples on this page - using ECMAScript 5 and native optimizations if they're available in the browser.

Note: Previously this answer recommended Underscore.js, but lodash has done a better job of getting bugs fixed and addressing issues with consistency.
