Topic: Exists


In the News (Sun 3 Jun 12)

  
  File (Java 2 Platform SE v1.4.2)
The canonical form of the pathname of a nonexistent file or directory may be different from the canonical form of the same pathname after the file or directory is created.
Similarly, the canonical form of the pathname of an existing file or directory may be different from the canonical form of the same pathname after the file or directory is deleted.
The check for the existence of the file and the creation of the file if it does not exist are a single operation that is atomic with respect to all other filesystem activities that might affect the file.

  CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Aristotle
For Aristotle, therefore, philosophic method implies the ascent from the study of particular phenomena to the knowledge of essences, while for Plato philosophic method means the descent from a knowledge of universal ideas to a contemplation of particular imitations of those ideas.
The Universal as such, in its full-blown intelligibility, is the work of the mind, and exists in the mind alone though it has a foundation in the potentially universal essence which exists independently of the mind and outside the mind.
The Formal Cause, that according to which the statue is made, is the idea existing in the first place as exemplar in the mind of the sculptor, and in the second place as intrinsic, determining cause, embodied in the matter.

 exists - perldoc.perl.org
Given an expression that specifies a hash element or array element, returns true if the specified element in the hash or array has ever been initialized, even if the corresponding value is undefined.
This surprising autovivification in what does not at first--or even second--glance appear to be an lvalue context may be fixed in a future release.
Use of a subroutine call, rather than a subroutine name, as an argument to exists() is an error.

 Irish Republican Army - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
While the anti-Treaty IRA continued to exist after its defeat in the Irish Civil War, by the late 1930s it had lost most of the legitimacy with which most supporters of the Republican side initially regarded it.
A month later, on 18 February, Liam Forde, O/C of the IRA Mid-Limerick Brigade, issued a proclamation stating that: "We no longer recognise the authority of the present head of the army, and renew our allegiance to the existing Irish Republic".
This was the first unit of the IRA to break with the pro-Treaty government.

 PHP: file_exists - Manual
Using snippets of code from below and some of my own I knocked this up because I wanted to check a URL from user input, and to be able to tell exactly what is wrong with a URL, not simply if it's true or false.
This results in files that appear to NOT exist on a symbolic link, even though they are very much in existance and indeed are readable by the web server.
if you try 'flower.jpg' and it exists, then it tries 'flower[1].jpg' and if that one exists it tries 'flower[2].jpg' and so on.

 ipedia.com: Carbonic acid Article   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-26)
It is the reaction product of water and carbon dioxide and exists...
It is the reaction product of water and carbon dioxide and exists in an equilibrium with water and carbon dioxide whenever the latter is dissolved in the former, for instance in soda water or blood.
It is usually not possible to obtain pure carbonic acid as the presence of even a single molecule of water causes the carbonic acid to revert to carbon dioxide and water fairly quickly.

 Spaceflight Now | Breaking News | Ice exists on surface of comet, but most lies deeper
Scientists for Deep Impact, the University of Maryland-led NASA mission that made history when it smashed into a comet this past July 4th, have added another first to their growing list: the first finding of water ice on the surface of a comet.
In the Science article, the authors say that prior to Deep Impact there existed few observations of nuclei not obscured by the coma.
Among previous cometary missions, the most notable of such observations was the Deep Space-1 mission to comet Borrelly, which searched unsuccessfully for evidence of water ice and other volatiles on that comet's surface.

What it is, Why it exists, How to find it, and Its inherent ambiguity
There are many thousands of public-record, official, and special-purpose databases containing government, financial, logistical, and other types of information that is needed to answer very specific inquiries of interest to very few people.
Even if stable links existed to such pages, search engines would not want them.
