Cracking Codes with Python teaches complete beginners how to program in the Python programming language. The book features the source code to several ciphers and hacking programs for these ciphers. The programs include the Caesar cipher, transposition cipher, simple...
Why is this book different from all other parallel programming books? It is aimed more on the practical end of things, in that: There is very little theoretical content, such as O() analysis, maximum theoretical speedup, PRAMs, directed acyclic graphs (DAGs) and so...
Haskell is a deep language, and we think that learning it is a hugely rewarding experience. We will focus on three elements as we explain why. The first is novelty: we invite you to think about programming from a different and valuable perspective. The second is...
This book attempts to explain Computational Thinking, as if this were 2018, and not 1970. It is a first step in becoming a highly productive programmer who knows how to use tools developed over the last four decades to quickly write correct programs, or a software...
The premise of this book, and the other books in the Think X series, is that if you know how to program, you can use that skill to learn other topics. Most books on Bayesian statistics use mathematical notation and present ideas in terms of mathematical concepts like...
