Begin your journey into the world of Git and GitHub with this comprehensive hands-on manual designed for complete beginners. This book demystifies the complexities of version control and remote collaboration using Git and GitHub, breaking them down into accessible, step-by-step chapters that ensure you grasp the fundamental concepts needed to manage your coding projects efficiently. Version Control System (VCS) is one of the most critical tools for coding and digital application development. Git is the most commonly used version control system, created by Linus Torvalds in 2005 for the development of the Linux kernel. GitHub is one of the most popular Remote Repository services based on the Git platform. In this course, we'll explain how to use Git as a version control system and how to collaborate with other developers on GitHub. Git and GitHub are often explained together, however, they are different things. Git is a version control system while GitHub is a repository service provided by GitHub, Inc. Typically, remote repository services also offer task management features besides collaborative coding features. For example, GitHub provides Git Issues that allow you to input tasks and share them with your team. GitHub or other remote repository services can also integrate with other services for workflow automation. This guide not only introduces you to the essentials of Git and GitHub but also equips you with the knowledge to effectively plan, implement, and manage your software development projects.

This book departs from the assumption that Artificial Intelligence (AI) systems will provide a maximum advantage by replacing human cognitive processing. Instead, this book subscribes to the assumption that AI systems will provide a maximal advantage when the system is specifically designed to augment human intelligence. It provides methods for designing effective systems that include one or more humans and one or more AI entities and uses the approach that assumes automation does not replace human activity but fundamentally changes the structure of human work when AI is added to existing systems. Integrating Artificial and Human Intelligence through Agent Oriented Systems Design discusses the potential impact of AI on human work and life and explores why teamwork is necessary today for complex work environments. The book explains the processes and methods humans employ to effectively team with one another and presents the elements of artificial agents that permit them to function as team members in joint human and artificial teams. It discusses design goals and illustrates how the methods that have been used to model the complex interactions among human and artificial agents can be expanded to enable the design of interaction between them to make possible the attainment of the shared goals. Model-Based Systems Engineering (MBSE) tools that provide logical designs of human–agent teams, the AI within these teams, training to be deployed for human and artificial agent team members, and the interfaces between human and artificial agent team members are all covered. MBSE files containing profiles and examples for building MBSE models used in the design approach are featured on the author’s website. When applying this text in computer science courses, faculty may consider exposing the students to the Unified Markup Language and possibly Systems Modeling Language prior to a course that applies this text or deliberately incorporate external sources providing an introduction to these languages as part of this course. This book is an ideal read for students, professors, engineers, and project managers associated with designing and developing AI systems or systems that seek to incorporate AI.

Python also has a large and supportive community with many online resources and documentation. Many tutorials, forums, and videos can help beginners get started with Python programming. Matplotlib is an amazing visualization library in Python for 2D plots of arrays. Matplotlib is a multi-platform data visualization library built on NumPy arrays and designed to work with the broader SciPy stack. It was introduced by John Hunter in the year 2002. One of the greatest benefits of visualization is that it allows us visual access to huge amounts of data in easily digestible visuals. Matplotlib consists of several plots like line, bar, scatter, histogram etc.
