Grab E-mail addresses

I thought to share a C#.net method that grab all the e-mail addresses from any file and It can be used for validation too.It returns an string array and I hope that you all can add some modifications on it and use it for any purpose you want.
Here is the code.

public static String[] readEmails(string file)
{
 int k = 0;
 StreamReader SR = File.OpenText(file);
 String S = SR.ReadLine();
 Dictionary myemails = new Dictionary();             
 string pattern = @"\w+([-+.]\w+)*@\w+([-.]\w+)*\.\w+([-.]\w+)*";
 Regex re = new Regex(pattern);        

 while (S != null)
 {             
  MatchCollection matches = re.Matches(S);

  if (matches.Count > 0)                                 
  for (int i = 0; i < matches.Count; i++)                    
  myemails.Add(i,matches[i].ToString());                

  S = SR.ReadLine();
 }
 
 string[] email = new string[myemails.Count];
 
 for (int i = 0; i < myemails.Count; i++)
  email[i]=myemails[i];

 Array.Sort(email);
 SR.Close();
 return email;
}
You have to pass the file that contains the e-mail addresses as a parameter. For eg:F:\\date2.txt If you have come up with any problem in using this do not hesitate to put a comment and I hope I'll be able to answer you.

Google API v3 with PHP using Blogger service

It was really hard for me to understand how the Google APIs are working at the first point and took few days for me to figure out. But after a successful working prototype it seems very easy. And also when I am searching for a simple example I was unable to find a good one that I can understand. So let me list down step by step what I have done with URLs and as simple as I can. Create a Google app location -  https://code.google.com/apis/console Switch on the "Blogger API v3" Get the latest APIs client library for PHP location -  https://code.google.com/p/google-api-php-client/downloads/list Upload the files to your host location on on localhost Extract the files to folder  named "GoogleClientApi" Create your php file outside of the folder  Copy paste following code into the file and do the changes as needed  By changing the scope and the service object you can access all the services that is given by Google APIs through the PHP API library se

My two cents on new year resolution

What is the plan for the new year ? - need to think on what are we trying achieve during next year 2018 - basically the life goals - may be personal or professional - and also it should be realistic (not something like going to Mars ;)) Why we need a plan for the new year ? - basically a goal without a plan is a DREAM - And also should be able to measure (what you cannot measure, you cannot manage) How to prepare a new Year resolution/plan ? - Leave some buffer time - Make changes during the year (life is changing/evolving) - Plan is only for you (do not share it) - When a milestone is achieved, celebrate - Try to stick to the plan - otherwise no point of planing

Assets and Liabilities as Rich Dad, Poor Dad explains

I was reading "The rich dad poor dad by Robert Kiyosaki" here is a one point that he mentions on that. Basically Asset as he says is little bit different than on books. If something puts money in your pocket it is a asset. And Liabilities are the ones that takes money out of your pocket. OK for example a house or a car may seems like an Asset but it takes money out of you pocket to maintain them. But if you rent them or make them to make money at the end of the day you can convert it to a asset. Basically that what rich people do. They buy assets. Middle class buy liabilities (thinking those are assets) and stuff (a lot of them that not used or that not needed). Lower class buy to consume (basic needs like foods).
