No bootable device Insert bootable device

Don't get panic when you see this thing, and also don't consult customer care or some other repair shop to waste some bucks.

Usually this error will be found when you made a unsuccessful attempt of dual booting your Mac with Windows.

To fix this error, restart your Mac and hold down option key, after hearing chime on booting.

If you don't want to install windows, then select the Mac Recovery partition. Then from the menu on the top, select the boot disk option and select the drive in which Mac is present. Restart and enjoy...

If you wish to install Windows, then insert bootable disk and select the Windows partition that you had created using boot camp, and proceed with installation.

In both cases you will be able to boot normally.

Java: Use BigInteger in for-loop

In my previous post , I mentioned a way to handle large integers by using BigInteger. Now I'm going to provide a very important usage of it. We often use for-loop. So here is the way to use it: Ordinary integers: for(int i = 1; i <= n; i++) {  //Task to do } BigInteger: for (BigInteger bi = BigInteger.valueOf(1);                 bi.compareTo(n) <= 0;                 bi = bi.add(BigInteger.ONE)) { //Task to do } here n is a BigInteger variable.

OS X 10.8 Mountain Lion bootable USB (without MAC)

Download the raw file from here . How to use: 1 - Copy the .raw file to an USB stick using  SUSE Studio Image Writer . If you have error during copy, eject and re-connect the pen drive. When Windows asks if you want to format it, cancel and run Image Writer again. If the problem persists, disable your anti-virus software, it may be blocking raw write to the drive. Another Image Writer for Windows, if SUSE doesn't work https://launchpad.net/win32-image-writer/+download 2 - Boot the USB drive and install.
