Keyboard keys not working


Recently I faced an issue with my laptop keyboard. Some of the keys are not working.
As it is still under warranty, I thought of replacing the keyboard.
When I contacted customer support, after listening to the problem he asked whether I tried DRAINING.
Then he explained me the procedure, and guess what - it's working perfectly again.

Here is the procedure of DRAINING:

  • First shut down the laptop/notebook
  • Remove the battery
  • Also unplug the adapter
  • Now press and hold the power button for about 25-30 seconds
  • Insert the battery again
  • Now power on the laptop by pressing power button(normal booting)

Now your keyboard will work again normally.
If the problem still persists, consider replacing the keyboard.

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.
