Forewords A while back I decided to try and learn Python for the hell of it as it seems like an interesting language and has some of the most concise and user-friendly syntax. Having spent some time going through a number of different learning sources and materials (like the official site python.org which has a …

I’ve covered the topic of using SmartThreadPool and the framework thread pool in more details here and here, this post will instead focus on a more specific scenario where the rate of new work items being queued outstrips the pool’s ability to process those items and what happens then. First, let’s try to quantify the …

For those of you who are familiar with Reactive Extensions you should know all about observables already, but did you know that there’s another kind of observable sequence – Rx.ConnectableObservable. The difference between the two types of observable sequences is well explained here, in short, a connectable observable sequence allows you to share the same …

I wrote previously about how you can set up multiple observable sequences and subscribe to them with multiple observers and create a many-to-many relationship between them. Whilst this is a very flexible model with a clear separation of responsibilities, often it requires more work to set up and is more than what you need for …

Out of curiosity after reading some articles on how the HashSet<T> (introduced in .Net 3.5) class is more performant than the List<T> class for set operations, I set about doing some experiments of my own to get a feel of just how much faster a HashSet is, and under what circumstances. Also, whilst there’s been …
On the Type class there are two very useful methods which allows you to determine the inheritance relationship of two arbitrary types at runtime – IsSubclassOf method and IsAssignableFrom method. IsSubclassOf The MSDN documentation for the IsSubclassOf method states: Determines whether the class represented by the current Type derives from the class represented by the …
Matthew Podwysocki posted a couple of very good articles on RxJS on codebetter.com and amongst them was a simple demo to do a look up on wikipedia using their open API: Introduction to the Reactive Extensions for JavaScript – Wikipedia Lookup Unfortunately, there wasn’t a live demo you can play around with and see it …

One of the great things about the Reactive Extensions for Javascript is that you can easily create a many-to-many relationship between observable sequences of values and observers who handles the arrival of new values. You should have a read of these couple of posts first: Introduction to the Reactive Extensions for Javascript – Creating Observables …
