The low cost of getting started with cloud services can easily evolve into a significant expense down the road. That's challenging for teams developing data pipelines, particularly when rapid changes in technology and workload require a constant cycle of redesign. How do you deliver scalable, highly available products while keeping costs in check? With this practical guide, author Sev Leonard provides a holistic approach to designing scalable data pipelines in the cloud. Intermediate data engineers, software developers, and architects will learn how to navigate cost/performance trade-offs and how to choose and configure compute and storage. You'll also pick up best practices for code development, testing, and monitoring. When working with Spark, the Spark UI provides additional diagnostic information regarding executor load, how well balanced (or not) your computation is across executors, shuffles, spill, and query plans, showing you how Spark is running your query. This information can help you tune Spark settings, data partitioning, and data transformation code.

The aim of this book is to teach you coding in Python while developing computational thinking—that is, the way we think when coding. The order of topics is designed to stimulate and strengthen skills such as logic, problem solving, and clean code writing. Python syntax is explained extensively in a simple but precise way, focusing on concepts and vocabulary. Topics include data types (strings, lists, dictionaries, etc.), if/else constructs, for loops, while loops, functions, modules, and object‐oriented programming. Examples are embedded in narrative to provide context and encourage memorization, and they are enriched with suggestions for code pronunciation. The book includes thirty‐eight chapters, each corresponding to a Jupyter Notebook where you can play with the code explained in the text. Chapters contain both theoretical exercises, to verify the understanding of concepts, and coding exercises, to learn by doing. Exercise solutions are described in the community forum, where you can ask questions and propose alternative solutions. At the end of each chapter, you will find recaps and “in more depth” sections, with suggestions, tips, and curiosities. The book is written in a simple and colloquial language while being precise and detailed. The material of this book was tested and refined over more than a thousand hours of one‐on‐one teaching, with international students of various educational backgrounds.

This book provides an introduction to Python test automation that is light and accessible. A good read for test professionals as well as Python novices. Taking a tour of Python test automation and seeing the attractions along the way. I wrote this book to be read like a book: something easy to read but still informative and interesting. There are code samples, but I try to keep the focus on the concepts with the code samples illustrating those concepts instead of the code samples dominating the content. The structure follows a loose “basic, intermediate, advanced” format. Chapters should ideally be read in order and there’s a slight building on concepts from one chapter to the next. However, each chapter does stand alone as a complete thought on a topic so individual chapters can be read or skipped at one’s pleasure. The primary audience for this book are application developers and test developers who use Python, but this book can enjoyed generally as well.

Facilitate coding in generating geometric motives with a special focus on analyzing their geometric formulations. This book aims to teach analytical coding skills by combining arts and mathematics. Geometric patterns are quintessentially important for understanding today’s media arts and their relationship with mathematics. With the main emphasis on this, author Selçuk Artut proposes a certain workflow to mathematically analyze a geometric pattern and use creative coding skills to render it on a computer screen. When done, you'll understand the basics of coding and expand the provided structure to cover issues of creative coding in particular. This book will also present a workflow to geometrically analyze and build patterns with detailed examples. For the sake of simplicity and convenience, we will use p5.js throughout the course of the book. p5.js is a jаvascript library for creative coding that places an emphasis on making coding accessible and inclusive for people from all walks of life, including artists, designers, educators, programmers, etc. With this in mind, this book offers an opportunity to gain a deeper understanding of geometric patterns and their possibilities through the use of p5.js.

Джунам и вчерашним выпускникам вузов катастрофически не хватает «уличного» опыта. Чтобы стать отличным разработчиком, понадобятся вполне конкретные навыки, позволяющие превратить теорию в практику, а также понимание того, в какие моменты можно нарушать казавшиеся незыблемыми правила. Эта книга — справочник по выживанию для начинающего разработчика. «Кодер с улицы» научит вас справляться с реальными задачами. Седат Капаноглу честно делится советами, основанными на личном опыте, а не на абстрактной теории. Вы узнаете, как адаптировать знания, полученные из книг и курсов, к повседневным рабочим задачам. Пора узнать, как использовать антипаттерны и «плохие» методы программирования. Эта книга построена на конкретных задачах, с которыми вы столкнетесь на работе, — от чисто технических аспектов, таких как создание функции поиска, до законов выживания в проблемной команде с менеджером-параноиком. Все это превратит вас в настоящего уличного бойца, готового в любой момент приступить к созданию эффективного программного обеспечения. Примеры написаны на C# и .NET, поэтому знакомство с этими языками поможет при чтении. Однако автор стремился, чтобы книга была, насколько это возможно, независима от конкретного языка и его структуры.
