An engaging and approachable resource for beginning-to-intermediate coders eager to learn advanced ideas in computer programming. In The Computer Always Wins, Elliot Lichtman will teach you some of computer science’s most powerful concepts in a refreshingly accessible way: exploring them through word games, board games, and strategy games you already know. Learn recursion by playing tic-tac-toe, efficient search through puzzle games like sudoku and Wordle, and Machine Learning by way of the playground classic rock-paper-scissors. Finish the book, and you’ll come away with not only a deeper understanding of these foundational programming techniques but also a new appreciation for the amazing feats that can be accomplished using simple, readable code. There, I put not only a full working Python implementation of minimax tic-tac-toe but also some debug code that will allow you to see exactly what the computer is doing as it plays the game.

This book provides a comprehensive introduction to continual and reinforcement learning for Edge AI, which investigates how to build an AI agent that can continuously solve new learning tasks and enhance the AI at resource-limited edge devices. The authors introduce readers to practical frameworks and in-depth algorithmic foundations. The book surveys the recent advances in the area, coming from both academic researchers and industry professionals. The authors also present their own research findings on continual and Reinforcement Learning for Edge AI. The book also covers the practical applications of the topic and identifies exciting future research opportunities. One of the key driving forces behind AI is the development of Deep Learning and deep neural networks (DNNs) since 2010s, which have achieved astonishing successes in solving ML problems and demonstrated great superiority over classical ML approaches, e.g., decision tree and Baysian networks. Notably, consisting of a series of layers, artificial neural networks (ANNs) can extract the underlying features from data in a hierarchical manner and provide a universal function approximator for ML problems.

This book explores the development of several new learning algorithms that utilize recent optimization techniques and meta-heuristics. It addresses well-known models such as particle swarm optimization, genetic algorithm, ant colony optimization, evolutionary strategy, population-based incremental learning, and grey wolf optimizer for training neural networks. Additionally, the book examines the challenges associated with these processes in detail. This volume will serve as a valuable reference for individuals in both academia and industry. Artificial Intelligence which mostly simulates the human intelligence through machine is one of the most trending technologies around the globe that impacts almost every domain these days. Whereas, optimization relates to the process of finding the optimum solution to a particular problem satisfying some given constraints within AI. We decided to write this book to share our understanding of optimization leveraging meta-heuristic algorithms for solving stock market prediction. The first goal of this book is to demonstrate what a meta-heuristic algorithm is and what its applications are. The second goal of this book is to show how to prepare and employ a meta-heuristic algorithm for a given optimization problem: how to create models, how to test them, and how to use them.

Learn about secure coding practices with Node.js based on real-world CVE vulnerabilities in popular open-source npm packages. This book takes an adventure-based approach to application security learning, where you will be playing a detective who unravels the mysteries of common security vulnerabilities. Through these exercises, you will learn about secure coding practices and how to avoid security pitfalls that software developers and open-source maintainers encounter. Senior software engineers often recite how one of the most critical skills you should have as an engineer is the ability to read code. The more you read, the easier it becomes for you to understand code and the more context you gain. This book focuses on that - reading vulnerable code so we can learn from it. Designed for jаvascript software developers building Node.js applications and security professionals interested in path traversal security vulnerabilities, this book provides a comprehensive understanding of the topic. It also demonstrates its impact and concerns on web application security. Through insecure coding practices found in vulnerable open-source npm packages, this book examines the security aspects affecting jаvascript and Node.js applications.

The Clojure standard library is a treasure trove of functions and macros that have been battle-tested over the years to solve the most challenging programming problems. Knowing what's available in the standard library not only liberates programmers from mundane tasks like connecting to data sources, parsing XML, dealing with numbers but also more advanced problems like handling concurrency and parallelism. Having a deep knowledge of the Clojure standard library helps you solve problems quickly and more efficiently. Clojure, The Essential Reference is an extensive reference to the standard library but it doesn't read as a dull list of functions. In addition to providing clear explanations for each topic, this guide is full of real-world examples, links, and background information. The book approaches difficult topics by illustrating them in a readable and pleasant way, using visual structure to emphasize the essential information. The book is designed to be used as a reference, but each function provides an interesting reading on its own, offering insight into functional and general programming. For developers of all skill levels who need a thorough reference to Clojure standard library.
