Software design principles provide guidelines to handle the complexity of the design process and prepare your code when changes arise, and minimize the impact of introducing bugs. This book aims to make you a better software designer within the object-oriented paradigm. Software design principles are guidelines that help developers to make an object-oriented system design resilient to future changes. Software design principles provide guidelines to handle the complexity of the design process and prepare our code when changes arise and minimize the impact of introducing bugs. Following these guidelines make our code more readable and easier to maintain. This book aims to make you a better software designer within the object-oriented paradigm.

The standard algorithms offer a lot of functionality. Save yourself time and effort by having a good grasp on what functionality already exists in the standard library. This book is a complete guide to the C++ standard algorithms, demonstrating examples and pointing out notable, surprising, dangerous or interesting aspects of the different algorithms. This book is a guide, as opposed to a reference, meaning that instead of describing every detail, the book concentrates on examples and pointing out notable, surprising, dangerous or interesting aspects of the different algorithms. Furthermore, unlike a reference, it is supposed to be read, for the most part, like a book in sequential order. C++ already has one canonical reference, the C++ standard, and for quick lookup, the cppreference.com wiki is a great source. The ”complete” part of the statement refers to the width of coverage. The book covers all algorithms and relevant theory up to the C++20 standard (the C++23 standard is not finalized at the time of writing).

Ansible is a simple, but powerful, server and configuration management tool. Learn to use Ansible effectively, whether you manage one server—or thousands. Ansible is a simple, but powerful, server and configuration management tool (with a few other tricks up its sleeve). This book helps those familiar with the command line and basic shell scripting start using Ansible to provision and manage anywhere from one to thousands of servers. The book begins with fundamentals, like installing Ansible, setting up a basic inventory file, and basic concepts, then guides you through Ansible's many uses, including ad-hoc commands, basic and advanced playbooks, application deployments, multiple-provider server provisioning, and even Docker orchestration!

Pillow is the most popular Python image processing library. It provides many of the features found in imaging applications like Photoshop or GIMP, such as loading, saving, resizing, transforming images, as well as converting colours and applying filters, enhancements, and effects. This book will teach you how to use simple Python code to automate these functions using the Pillow library, so that your programs can incorporate advanced image processing. It provides a comprehensive guide to Pillow, in plain language and with lots of examples. This book is aimed at anyone wishing to learn about image processing in Python.

Learn Python in a Weekend! This book is an (informal) language reference on the Python programming language. Python is one of the most widely used languages in many different application areas. We go through all essential features of the modern Python programming language, including the match statement (3.10) and exception groups (3.11). Although the book is written as a reference, you can read it more or less from beginning to end and you should be able to get the overall picture of the Python language if you have some prior experience with programming in Python. Python is a dynamic language. It means many different things. It means that the language is more flexible. It means that Python is an easier language to program with. You can quickly write a simple program without having to go through too much "rituals", compared to many other programming languages. Python scripts tend to require less boilerplate code. Python gives you more freedom.

Humans do a great job of reading text, identifying key ideas, summarizing, making connections, and other tasks that require comprehension and context. Recent advances in deep learning make it possible for computer systems to achieve similar results. Deep Learning for Natural Language Processing teaches you to apply deep learning methods to natural language processing (NLP) to interpret and use text effectively. In this insightful book, NLP expert Stephan Raaijmakers distills his extensive knowledge of the latest state-of-the-art developments in this rapidly emerging field.

Reinforcement Learning (RL) is emerging as a practical, powerful technique for solving a variety of complex business problems across industries that involve Sequential Optimal Decisioning under Uncertainty. Although RL is classified as a branch of Machine Learning (ML), it tends to be viewed and treated quite differently from other branches of ML (Supervised and Unsupervised Learning). Indeed, RL seems to hold the key to unlocking the promise of AI—machines that adapt their decisions to vagaries in observed information, while continuously steering towards the optimal outcome. Its penetration in high-profile problems like self-driving cars, robotics and strategy games points to a future where RL algorithms will have decisioning abilities far superior to humans. But when it comes getting educated in RL, there seems to be a reluctance to jump right in because RL seems to have acquired a reputation of being mysterious and exotic. This book strives to impart a lucid and insightful understanding of the topic by emphasizing the foundational mathematics and implementing models and algorithms in well-designed Python code, along with robust coverage of several financial trading problems that can be solved with Reinforcement Learning.

Mastering React helps the reader master the React jаvascript framework for faster and more robust front-end development. React is a jаvascript framework for creating interface design that is coherent, cheap, and customizable. It makes it possible to create complicated user interfaces out of “modules,” which are small, independent pieces of code. The primary goal of using React is the easier creation of visual interfaces. React was developed by Facebook and released to the public in 2013. It powers some of the most popular apps, including Facebook and Instagram.

So, you want to learn C# and Visual Studio 2022, but are a bit intimidated? Don’t be. Programming is within your grasp! Programmers at any level have to fully understand, and more importantly, be able to code the core constructs. It is impossible to use complex programming concepts such as classes before understanding what methods and variables and their data types are. Once there is a foundation built on the basics, then all other topics can fall in line. While it is a forgone conclusion that languages change with the introduction of new features, the core concepts do not. Even large enterprises do not always update to the latest versions of languages and frameworks; their "backbone" applications have been developed to work, regardless. More than ever, enterprises need developers who can master and apply the core programming concepts and then be "up-skilled" with newer language levels and features as they integrate into the company.
