Kernel Configuration Comparison 0.2
Kernel Configuration Comparison (kccmp) provides a GUI for comparing two Linux kernel .config files. more>>
It shows configuration variables with different values in a tabular format. It also shows configuration variables found in only one of the input configuration files.
Building:
kccmp by default requires Qt 3.x. However, by changing one line in kccmp.pro you can build against Qt 4.x. Note that the Qt 4.x build requilres libboost_regex as well.
The standard build is as easy as:
example:
% qmake
% make
Usage
% kccmp /path/to/first/.config path/to/second/.config
example:
% kccmp /usr/src/linux/.config /usr/src/linux/.config.old
Enhancements:
- This release was ported to Qt 3.x.
- The requirement for libboost_regex was removed.
- Building with either Qt 4.x or Qt 3.x is now supported.
Bio::SAGE::Comparison 1.00
Bio::SAGE::Comparison module compares data from serial analysis of gene expression (SAGE) libraries. more>>
SYNOPSIS
use Bio::SAGE::Comparison;
$sage = Bio::SAGE::Comparison->new();
This module provides several tools for comparing data generated from serial analysis of gene expression (SAGE) libraries.
BACKGROUND
Serial analysis of gene expression (SAGE) is a molecular technique for generating a near-global snapshot of a cell population’s transcriptome. Briefly, the technique extracts short sequences at defined positions of transcribed mRNA. These short sequences are then paired to form ditags. The ditags are concatamerized to form long sequences that are then cloned. The cloned DNA is then sequenced. Bioinformatic techniques are then employed to determine the original short tag sequences, and to derive their progenitor mRNA. The number of times a particular tag is observed can be used to quantitate the amount of a particular transcript. The original technique was described by Velculescu et al. (1995) and utilized an ~14bp sequence tag. A modified protocol was introduced by Saha et al. (2002) that produced ~21bp tags.
PURPOSE
This module facilitates the comparison of SAGE libraries. Specifically:
1. Calculations for determining the statistical
significance of expression differences.
2. Dynamically convert longer-tag libraries to
a shorter type for comparison (e.g. comparing
a LongSAGE vs. a regular SAGE library).
Both regular SAGE (14mer tag) and LongSAGE (21mer tag) are supported by this module.
Statistical significance in library comparisons is calculated using the method described by Audic and Claverie (1997). Code was generated by directly porting the authors original C source.
Debt Payment Comparison Calculator 1.18
Debt Payment Comparison Calculator is a free, flexible tool for your Web site that does more than just calculate monthly payment more>>
In addition to what typical Web calculators do, which is grab the principle, interest rate, and the years to pay it off to generate your monthly payment, this calculator can tell you how long it would take you to pay off a debt if you increased or decreased the payment amount.
Each time the user uses the calculator, it saves the information so that the user can compare different payment scenarios. At any time, the user can clear the data and start over. They can also color-group different scenarios for easy visual reference.
Main features:
- Stores calculations in a session variable, so users can compare different payment scenarios, side by side without the use of a database.
- Ability to color-code the scenarios by clicking on them, making it easy to visually sort the results
- Works fine without Javascript enabled
- Simple code to work with, easy to adjust to specific needs

Free Help Desk 1.08a
Help desk software is vital to the success of your help desk and customer support staff. more>>
The design of this software comes from many years of help desk experience working in a help desk environment. All the basic tools for running a successful help desk are included in this help desk software package.
Help desk software should be used in any organization whether its a large corporation or a small startup company. Why should my company implement a helpdesk software solution? Some of the benefits of helpdesk software are improved customer service, faster response times and lower information technology costs. Lets outline these three areas in greater detail.
When a user contacts the computer support professional in your organization, what steps are taken? Does it depend on who answered the phone? Do the immediately drop any task and visit your desk? Do they jot your information down on a note pad? Do they attempt to resolve the issue on the phone at great length? What criteria merits the call be moved to another member of the IT staff, or merits a call the software vendor?
All these questions can be answered in some way within the use of help desk software. Helpdesk software forces your IT staff to handle help desk calls in a structured manner that can be counted on each time. When a helpdesk call is received, it should be immediately be entered into the help desk software database, even if it is easily answered.
At this point there is now a record of the call, and this allows other IT staff to view the contents of the problem and makes it a simple task for other IT staff members to offer solutions. This also prevents the call from being lost in the shuffle if staff is busy when the call is received. Your general staff will have much more confidence that when they place that call to your help desk staff, their call will be handled in a structured method to ensure their satisfaction.
If they can continue to work, they will not feel the need to keep calling or checking with IT staff on the progress, or worry that their call will not be answered in a reasonable amount of time. This allows them to focus on their tasks, and not be concerned with the status of their call.
Many help desk software solutions offer a self-help method, allowing the staff members in your company to submit a helpdesk request directly into the help desk system. (granted their computer is functioning enough for this) This feature greatly streamlines the process, and can increase response time for all users. Help desk support staff will not be interrupted by the phone call and have to stop working on another issue to record the call information.
In fact, it should be encouraged by the IT staff to submit all request possible with this method. When a request is entered into the system, it allows any available support personnel to respond to the request. It also allows support personnel to diversify calls, so if a calls is shown to be about a particular problem that a staff member has greater expertise with, that staff member will likely be able to solve the problem much quicker. Once each calls is resolved, the solution will then become available for future reference.
This is one of the greatest benefits an organization will receive from using a help desk system. This allows newer support staff to be able to answer many questions by simply searching the database for other calls. Also prevent 2 support staff from having to research for the same solution, this benefits in much faster response time for the end user.
Everything mentioned above will contribute to the overall quality of service in your organization, happier staff and faster response time will mean lower costs and higher productivity for your organization.

Array::Compare 1.14
Array::Compare is a Perl extension for comparing arrays. more>>
SYNOPSIS
use Array::Compare;
my $comp1 = Array::Compare->new;
$comp->Sep(|);
$comp->Skip({3 => 1, 4 => 1});
$comp->WhiteSpace(0);
$comp->Case(1);
my $comp2 = Array::Compare->new(Sep => |,
WhiteSpace => 0,
Case => 1,
Skip => {3 => 1, 4 => 1});
my @arr1 = 0 .. 10;
my @arr2 = 0 .. 10;
$comp1->compare(@arr1, @arr2);
$comp2->compare(@arr1, @arr2);
If you have two arrays and you want to know if they are the same or different, then Array::Compare will be useful to you.
All comparisons are carried out via a comparator object. In the simplest usage, you can create and use a comparator object like this:
my @arr1 = 0 .. 10;
my @arr2 = 0 .. 10;
my $comp = Array::Compare->new;
if ($comp->compare(@arr1, @arr2)) {
print "Arrays are the samen";
} else {
print "Arrays are differentn";
}
Notice that you pass references to the two arrays to the comparison method.
Internally the comparator compares the two arrays by using join to turn both arrays into strings and comparing the strings using eq. In the joined strings, the elements of the original arrays are separated with the ^G character. This can cause problems if your array data contains ^G characters as it is possible that two different arrays can be converted to the same string.
To avoid this, it is possible to override the default separator character, either by passing and alternative to the new function
my $comp = Array::Compare->new(Sep => |);
or by changing the seperator for an existing comparator object
$comp->Sep(|);
In general you should choose a separator character that wont appear in your data.
You can also control whether or not whitespace within the elements of the arrays should be considered significant when making the comparison. The default is that all whitespace is significant. The alternative is for all consecutive white space characters to be converted to a single space for the pruposes of the comparison. Again, this can be turned on when creating a comparator object:
my $comp = Array::Compare->new(WhiteSpace => 0);
or by altering an existing object:
$comp->WhiteSpace(0);
You can also control whether or not the case of the data is significant in the comparison. The default is that the case of data is taken into account. This can be changed in the standard ways when creating a new comparator object:
my $comp = Array::Compare->new(Case => 0);
or by altering an existing object:
$comp->Case(0);
In addition to the simple comparison described above (which returns true if the arrays are the same and false if theyre different) there is also a full comparison which returns a list containing the indexes of elements which differ between the two arrays. If the arrays are the same it returns an empty list. In scalar context the full comparison returns the length of this list (i.e. the number of elements that differ). You can access the full comparision in two ways. Firstly, there is a DefFull attribute. If this is true then a full comparison if carried out whenever the compare method is called.
my $comp = Array::Compare->new(DefFull => 1);
$comp->compare(@arr1, @arr2); # Full comparison
$comp->DefFull(0);
$comp->compare(@arr1, @arr2); # Simple comparison
$comp->DefFull(1);
$comp->compare(@arr1, @arr2); # Full comparison again
Secondly, you can access the full comparison method directly
$comp->full_compare(@arr1, @arr2);
For symmetry, there is also a direct method to use to call the simple comparison.
$comp->simple_compare(@arr1, @arr2);
The final complication is the ability to skip elements in the comparison. If you know that two arrays will always differ in a particular element but want to compare the arrays ignoring this element, you can do it with Array::Compare without taking array slices. To do this, a comparator object has an optional attribute called Skip which is a reference to a hash. The keys in this hash are the indexes of the array elements and the values should be any true value for elements that should be skipped.
For example, if you want to compare two arrays, ignoring the values in elements two and four, you can do something like this:
my %skip = (2 => 1, 4 => 1);
my @a = (0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5);
my @b = (0, 1, X, 3, X, 5);
my $comp = Array::Compare->new(Skip => %skip);
$comp->compare(@a, @b);
This should return true, as we are explicitly ignoring the columns which differ.
Of course, having created a comparator object with no skip hash, it is possible to add one later:
$comp->Skip({1 => 1, 2 => 1});
or:
my %skip = (1 => 1, 2 => 2);
$comp->Skip(%skip);
To reset the comparator so that no longer skips elements, set the skip hash to an empty hash.
$comp->Skip({});
You can also check to see if one array is a permutation of another, i.e. they contain the same elements but in a different order.
if ($comp->perm(@a, @b) {
print "Arrays are permsn";
else {
print "Nope. Arrays are completely differentn";
}
In this case the values of WhiteSpace and Case are still used, but Skip is ignored for, hopefully, obvious reasons.
Genezzo::Havok::SQLCompare 0.69
Genezzo::Havok::SQLCompare is a Perl module with SQL comparison functions. more>>
SYNOPSIS
HavokUse("Genezzo::Havok::SQLCompare")
FUNCTIONS
SQL functions
IN
WHERE value IN (list)
Returns TRUE if the value is present in the list, else FALSE. NOT IN is slightly different: returns NULL if any list item is NULL, return FALSE if the value matches any list item, else returns TRUE.
LIKE
WHERE value LIKE (pattern)
WHERE value LIKE (pattern, escape_char)
Returns TRUE if the value matches the pattern. In the pattern, a % (percent sign) matches zero or more characters, and an _ (underscore) matches exactly one character. These characters can be matched as literals if they are preceded by the optional escape character.
LIMITATIONS
- IN has list support, but no IN subquery support.
- LIKE has a "functional" syntax, instead of the standard LIKE pattern [ESCAPE escape_char].
