Retrieve a string containing ampersands from the variables in a url
My PHP script first does a query to obtain customer info for a form. The form has first name and last name fields among others. The customer has put entries such as
The script variable for first name $_REQUEST
I have tried various functions like urldecode but all to no avail. I even tried encoding the url before the view screen is painted so that the url looks like
Of course this fails for the same reasons. What is a better approach?
"Ron & Jean" in the first name field in the database. Then the edit form script is called with variables such as
"http://myserver.com/custinfo/edit.php?mode=view&fname=Ron & Jean&lname=Smith".
The script variable for first name $_REQUEST
['firstname'] never gets beyond the "Ron" value because of the ampersand in the data.
I have tried various functions like urldecode but all to no avail. I even tried encoding the url before the view screen is painted so that the url looks like
"http://myserver/custinfo/edit.php?mode=view&fname="Ronxxnbsp;xxamp;xxnbsp;Jean"&lname=SMITH". (sorry I had to add the xx to replace the ampersand or it didn't display meaningful url contents the browser sees.)
Of course this fails for the same reasons. What is a better approach?

Instantiate object with mutable state
Reimplement the Greeter class so that the
For example, if the greetee is changed to
Hello, Tommy!
The getter would then be used to display the line:
I have just greeted Tommy.
'whom' property or data member remains private but is mutable, and is provided with getter and setter methods. Invoke the setter to change the greetee, invoke 'greet', then use the getter in displaying the line, "I have just greeted {whom}.".
For example, if the greetee is changed to
'Tommy' using the setter, the 'greet' method would display:
Hello, Tommy!
The getter would then be used to display the line:
I have just greeted Tommy.

Implement Inheritance Heirarchy
Implement a Shape abstract class which will form the base of an inheritance hierarchy that models 2D geometric shapes. It will have:
* A non-mutable
* A
* A
* A non-mutable
'name' property or data member set by derived or descendant classes at construction time
* A
'area' method intended to be overridden by derived or descendant classes ( double precision floating point return value)
* A
'print' method (also for overriding) will display the shape's name, area, and all shape-specific values
Two derived or descendant classes will be created:
* Circle -> Constructor requires a 'radius' argument, and a 'circumference' method to be implemented
* Rectangle -> Constructor requires 'length' and 'breadth' arguments, and a 'perimeter' method to be implemented
Instantiate an object of each class, and invoke each objects 'print' method to show relevant details.

Implement and use an Interface
Create a Serializable interface consisting of
* Accept a stream or handle or descriptor argument for the source or destination
* Save to destination or restore from source the properties or data members of the implementing class (restrict yourself to the primitive types
Next, create a Person class which has
'save' and 'restore' methods, each of which:
* Accept a stream or handle or descriptor argument for the source or destination
* Save to destination or restore from source the properties or data members of the implementing class (restrict yourself to the primitive types
'int' and 'string')
Next, create a Person class which has
'name' and 'age' properties or data members and implements this interface. Instantiate a Person object, save it to a serial stream, and instantiate a new Person object by restoring it from the serial stream.

Find all Pythagorean triangles with length or height less than or equal to 20
Pythagorean triangles are right angle triangles whose sides comply with the following equation:
a * a + b * b = c * c
where c represents the length of the hypotenuse, and a and b represent the lengths of the other two sides. Find all such triangles where a, b and c are non-zero integers with a and b less than or equal to 20. Sort your results by the size of the hypotenuse. The expected answer is:
a * a + b * b = c * c
where c represents the length of the hypotenuse, and a and b represent the lengths of the other two sides. Find all such triangles where a, b and c are non-zero integers with a and b less than or equal to 20. Sort your results by the size of the hypotenuse. The expected answer is:

Subdivide A Problem To A Pool Of Workers (No Shared Data)
Take a hard to compute problem and split it up between multiple worker threads. In your solution, try to fully utilize available cores or processors. (I'm looking at you, Python!)
Note: In this question, there should be no need for shared state between worker threads while the problem is being solved. Only after every thread completes computation are the answers recombined into a single output.
Example:
-Input-
(In python syntax)
In other words, a list of random strings.
-Output-
(In python syntax)
In other words, all possible permutations of each input string are computed.

Example:

In other words, a list of random strings.
-Output-
(In python syntax)

Subdivide A Problem To A Pool Of Workers (Shared Data)
Take a hard to compute problem and split it up between multiple worker threads. In your solution, try to fully utilize available cores or processors. (I'm looking at you, Python!)
Note: In this question, there should be a need for shared state between worker threads while the problem is being solved.
Example:
-Conway Game of Life-
From Wikipedia:
The universe of the Game of Life is an infinite two-dimensional orthogonal grid of square cells, each of which is in one of two possible states, live or dead. Every cell interacts with its eight neighbors, which are the cells that are directly horizontally, vertically, or diagonally adjacent. At each step in time, the following transitions occur:
1. Any live cell with fewer than two live neighbours dies, as if caused by underpopulation.
2. Any live cell with more than three live neighbours dies, as if by overcrowding.
3. Any live cell with two or three live neighbours lives on to the next generation.
4. Any dead cell with exactly three live neighbours becomes a live cell.
The initial pattern constitutes the seed of the system. The first generation is created by applying the above rules simultaneously to every cell in the seed—births and deaths happen simultaneously, and the discrete moment at which this happens is sometimes called a tick (in other words, each generation is a pure function of the one before). The rules continue to be applied repeatedly to create further generations.
--However, for our purposes, we will assign a size to the game

Create read/write lock on a shared resource.
Create multiple threads or processes who are either readers or writers. There should be more readers then writers.
(From Wikipedia):
Multiple readers can read the data in parallel but an exclusive lock is needed while writing the data. When a writer is writing the data, readers will be blocked until the writer is finished writing.
Example:
-Output-
Thread one says that the value is 8.
Thread three says that the value is 8.
Thread two is taking the lock.
Thread four tried to read the value, but could not.
Thread five tried to write to the value, but could not.
Thread two is changing the value to 9.
Thread two is releasing the lock.
Thread four says that the value is 9.
...
--Notice that when a needed resource is locked, a thread can set a timer and try again in the future, or wait to be notified that the resource is no longer locked.

Separate user interaction and computation.
Allow your program to accept user interaction while conducting a long running computation.
Example:
Hello user! Please input a string to permute: (input thread)
abcdef
Passing on abcdef... (input thread)
Please input another string to permute: (input thread)
lol
Passing on lol... (input thread)
Done Work On abcdef! (worker thread)
Please input another string to permute: (input thread)
EXIT
Quitting, I
--Notice, that this could be accomplished on the command line or within a GUI. The point is that computation and user interaction should take place on separate threads of control.
Example:
Hello user! Please input a string to permute: (input thread)
abcdef
Passing on abcdef... (input thread)
Please input another string to permute: (input thread)
lol
Passing on lol... (input thread)
Done Work On abcdef! (worker thread)
["abcdef", "abcefd", ... ] (worker thread)
Please input another string to permute: (input thread)
EXIT
Quitting, I
'll let my worker thread know... (input thread)
We're quitting! Alright! (worker thread)
--Notice, that this could be accomplished on the command line or within a GUI. The point is that computation and user interaction should take place on separate threads of control.
