In this book, various numerical methods are discussed in a comprehensive way. It delivers a mixture of theory, examples and MATLAB practicing exercises to help the students in improving their skills. To understand the MATLAB programming in a friendly style, the examples are solved. The MATLAB codes are mentioned in the end of each topic. Throughout the text, a balance between theory, examples and programming is maintained. This book has been designed specifically for research scholars who want to study and apply numerical methods in science and engineering by using MATLAB®. The language is comprehensive and sufficient explanation is provided so that scholars can get insight into the numerical techniques and understand them easily. I have been teaching this subject for the last six years and have witnessed that many students are facing problems understanding MATLAB. By keeping this in mind, I have written this book so that any science or engineering scholar can easily solve problems through MATLAB. The numerical methods are explained; however, the main theme is to objectify use of numerical methods through MATLAB software. Every presented method has been explained with examples. The main steps which are kept in mind for MATLAB programming are elaborated in the form of an algorithm and the codes are developed.

Starting with the basics of quantum mechanics, this book builds a strong foundation for understanding the core principles of quantum computing, ensuring that readers with no prior knowledge can follow along, via heavy use of analogies and very little complicated mathematics. The book explores a vast range of material, from quantum natural language processing networks to the gritty details of how qubits are modified in quantum algorithms. Quantum computing may seem to most a heavy, tedious, and infinitely abstract field. However, as daunting as it may be, the field of quantum computing holds the answers for some of the world’s most complex problems, problems that choke up even the most powerful supercomputers. This isn’t to say quantum computers are objectively superior to classical computers, but simply different. If classical computers were cars, quantum computers would be planes. In some cases, it makes sense to use the car – it can be impractical to take a plane for the 3 miles you need to travel. Sometimes, though, it makes sense to fly for a few hours instead of trying to drive across an entire continent. Of course, this analogy is a simplification of the differences between the two, but it still serves as an important boundary nonetheless.

Modern systems contain multi-core CPUs and GPUs that have the potential for parallel computing. But many scientific Python tools were not designed to leverage this parallelism. With this short but thorough resource, data scientists and Python programmers will learn how the Dask open source library for parallel computing provides APIs that make it easy to parallelize PyData libraries including NumPy, Pandas, and Scikit-learn. We wrote this book for data scientists and data engineers familiar with Python and pandas who are looking to handle larger-scale problems than their current tooling allows. Current PySpark users will find that some of this material overlaps with their existing knowledge of PySpark, but we hope they still find it helpful, and not just for getting away from the Java Virtual Machine (JVM). Dask is a framework for parallelized computing with Python that scales from multiple cores on one machine to data centers with thousands of machines. Authors Holden Karau and Mika Kimmins show you how to use Dask computations in local systems and then scale to the cloud for heavier workloads. This practical book explains why Dask is popular among industry experts and academics and is used by organizations that include Walmart, Capital One, Harvard Medical School, and NASA.

This book was designed with the novice Python programmer and/or information technology professional who doesn't have programming experience, but wants or needs to learn Python to do jobs or tasks related to the programming language. If you need to learn Python for tasks such as data scrubbing, network automation, web development, etc., this is the book for you. In my personal experience, I had to learn Python to analyze data sets from CSV files and excel spreadsheets using Pandas. With Pandas for example, it is important to learn about Python functions, classes, lists, sets, and dictionaries to name a few, to clean raw data sets to make the data useful for data analysis. If you are a Network Engineer, or work in other information technology disciplines, there is a high possibility that you had to pull APIs (Application Programming Interfaces) from external data sources (i.e. outside of your company or client’s network) needed for things like internal audit purposes as an example. If this sounds like you this is the right book for you. This text will get you on the right track to learning the essentials of the Python programming language. Python has become the programming language of choice for many day to day IT tasks, in many companies globally. One of the many reasons that Python have been used by some many IT departments is Python is powerful. The Python language is expressive and productive, with a “batteries included” approach packaged with a extensive standard library as well as a plethora of third-party libraries. With Python you can build simple scripts to complex applications.
