asp.net mvc 4 - Mvc: Create method to populate dropdown list from a class and call from controller -

-

the code below works in index controller action populates dropdownbox using database data.

i don't want use directly in controller because using dropdown in multiple places on page.

var db = new storemanagerentities();         var query = db.categories.select(c => new         {             categoryid = c.categoryid,             categoryname = c.categoryname,             isselected = c.categoryid.equals(0)         });          var model = new selectviewmodel         {             list = query.tolist()                         .select(c => new selectlistitem                         {                             value = c.categoryid.tostring(),                             text = c.categoryname,                             selected = c.isselected,                         })         };          return view(model);

i want able put code in method , call method controller here class want method go.

public class northwinddatacontext {      storemanagerentities mydb = new storemanagerentities();      //retrieve category objects     public list<category> getcategories()     {         return mydb.categories.tolist();     }      //populate dropdownbox         public void populatedropdown()         {               var query = db.categories.select(c => new         {             categoryid = c.categoryid,             categoryname = c.categoryname,             isselected = c.categoryid.equals(0)         });          var model = new selectviewmodel         {             list = query.tolist()                         .select(c => new selectlistitem                         {                             value = c.categoryid.tostring(),                             text = c.categoryname,                             selected = c.isselected,                         })         };          }   }    can please show me how can write method here , have    return data need controller. nice if    can show me how call controller well.

how change northwinddatacontext class 

public class northwinddatacontext     {         storemanagerentities mydb = new storemanagerentities();             //retrieve category objects         public list<category> getcategories()         {             return mydb.categories.tolist();         }             //populate dropdownbox         public selectviewmodel populatedropdown()         {             var query = db.categories.select(c => new                 {                     categoryid = c.categoryid,                     categoryname = c.categoryname,                     isselected = c.categoryid.equals(0)                 });              var model = new selectviewmodel             {                 list = query.tolist()                             .select(c => new selectlistitem                             {                                 value = c.categoryid.tostring(),                                 text = c.categoryname,                                 selected = c.isselected,                             })             };             return model;          }          }

notice change in return type of populatedropdown() , return model;

and use in controller like:

var db = new northwinddatacontext(); var model = db.populatedropdown();  return view(model);

How to calculate SNR of signals in MATLAB? -

-
i've encountered simple, yet fundamental problem on calculating snr: there several signals : s1 = original , pure clean signal without noise. n1 = white gaussian noise going added s1. s2 = s1 + n1 (the noisy signal before performing noise-reduction algorithm) s3 = noise-reduced signal (after performing noise reduction algorithm) n2 = s3 - s1 (the amount of noise after performing noise-reduction algorithm) now want compare snr before , after performing noise-reduction algorithm. which signals should consider snr_before!? s1/n1 or s2/n1 ? which signals should consider snr_after!? s3/n1 or s3/n2 ? which commands or functions should use in matlab in order compute snr_before , snr_after? thanks billion putting time on helping me. what know calculating snr before : snrbeforenoise = mean( signal .^ 2 ) / mean( noise .^ 2 ); and snr after : residual_noise = signal - noise_reduced_signal; snr_after = mean( signal .^ 2 ) / mean( residual_noise .^ 2...
