MethodInvoker Delegate

MethodInvoker Delegate

public delegate void MethodInvoker()
Remarks

MethodInvoker provides a simple delegate that is used to invoke a method with a void parameter list. This delegate can be used when making calls to a control's Invoke method, or when you need a simple delegate but do not want to define one yourself.
Examples

The following code example demonstrates how to use a MethodInvoker to call a method that updates the title bar of the application form.
C#
public partial class Form1 : Form
{
public Form1()
{
// Create a timer that will call the ShowTime method every second.
var timer = new System.Threading.Timer(ShowTime, null, 0, 1000);
}

private void ShowTime(object x)
{
// Don't do anything if the form's handle hasn't been created
// or the form has been disposed.
if (!this.IsHandleCreated && !this.IsDisposed) return;

// Invoke an anonymous method on the thread of the form.
this.Invoke((MethodInvoker) delegate
{
// Show the current time in the form's title bar.
this.Text = DateTime.Now.ToLongTimeString();
});
}
}

Computer Science Defenition

Computer Science Computer science is the scientific and practical approach to computation and its applications. It is the systematic study of the feasibility, structure, expression, and mechanization of the methodical procedures (or algorithms ) that underlie the acquisition, representation, processing, storage, communication of, and access to information , whether such information is encoded as bits in a computer memory or transcribed in genes and protein structures in a biological cell . [1] A computer scientist specializes in the theory of computation and the design of computational system

Understanding machine learning

What is machine learning does?  It Finds patterns in data and uses those patterns to predict the future.          EXAMPLES :  Detecting credit card fraud : You can use machine learning  detect credit card fraud, Suppose you have data about previous credit card transactions. You could find patterns in that data potentially  that allows you to detect when a new credit card transaction is likely to be fraudulent. Determining whether a customer is likely to switch to a competitor :  You could possibly find the patterns in the existing customer data that will help you do that Lots more What does it mean to learn ? Yes it's something like your own learning process. You have learned reading,listening, walking everything by using your experience on it, the data you have in your mind and continuous improvements.  How did you learn to read? Well learning requires identifying patterns. Reading for instance you ...

Function pass by value vs. pass by reference

Function pass by value vs. pass by reference I will call what you are passing in a to a function the actual parameters, and where you receive them, the parameters in the function, the formal parameters. They are also called actual and formal arguments. When passing parameters, what it is called and what happens can be confusing. It is less essential that you call it the "correct" thing than you know exactly what is happening. It is critical to have a good mental model, a valid memory picture of the process. Recall that when you call a function, a chunk of memory called an activation record is allocated. Critical to the discussion here is that this memory holds the formal parameter values and function local variables. By definition, pass by value means you are making a copy in memory of the actual parameter's value that is passed in, a copy of the contents of the actual parameter. Use pass by value when when you are only "using" the paramet...
