Python GUI Programming Cookbook

In this book, we will explore the beautiful world of graphical user interfaces (GUIs) using the Python programming language. Along the way, we will talk to networks, queues, the OpenGL graphical library, and many more technologies. This is a programming cookbook. Every chapter is self-contained and explains a certain programming solution. We will start very simply, yet throughout this book we…

Python Parallel Programming Cookbook

The study of computer science should cover not only the principles on which computational processing is based, but should also reflect the current state of knowledge of these fields. Today, the technology requires that professionals from all branches of computer science know both the software and hardware whose interaction at all levels is the key to understanding the basics of computational pr…

Python Unlocked

Python is a versatile programming language that can be used for a wide range of technical tasks—computation, statistics, data analysis, game development, and more. Though Python is easy to learn, its range of features means there are many aspects of it that even experienced Python developers don't know about. Even if you're confident with the basics, its logic and syntax, by digging deeper yo…

The R Inferno

Having abandoned the true way, I fell into a deep sleep and awoke in a deep dark wood. I set out to escape the wood, but my path was blocked by a lion. As I fled to lower ground, a figure appeared before me. “Have mercy on me, whatever you are,” I cried, “whether shade or living human.” “Not a man, though once I was. My parents were from Lombardy. I was born sub Julio and lived in R…

R Succinctly

As many of you may know, Syncfusion is a provider of software components for the Microsoft platform. This puts us in the exciting but challenging position of always being on the cutting edge. Whenever platforms or tools are shipping out of Microsoft, which seems to be about every other week these days, we have to educate ourselves, quickly.

RabbitMQ in Action

Welcome to RabbitMQ in Action. If you're like me, possibly you're thinking, "Should I read past page one ?" Also, too many technology books are written and published, and not all merit more than superficial attention.

Raspberry Pi Projects for Kids

In the mid-2000s, some of the staff at the University of Cambridge noticed that there were fewer students applying to study computer science each year, and that they didn't have very much experience. Something had to be done about this situation. The answer was the Raspberry Pi: a small, inexpensive computer which makes programming as accessible and as fun as possible. The idea is that students…

Real World OCaml

Programming languages matter. They affect the reliability, security, and efficiency of the code you write, as well as how easy it is to read, refactor, and extend. The languages you know can also change how you think, influencing the way you design software even when you’re not using them. We wrote this book because we believe in the importance of programming languages, and that OCaml in part…

Real-Time Digital Signal Processing

Signals can be divided into three categories: continuous-time (analog) signals, discrete-time signals, and digital signals. The signals that we encounter daily are mostly analog signals. These signals are defined continuously in time, have an infinite range of amplitude values, and can be processed using analog electronics containing both active and passive circuit elements. Discrete-time sig…

Regular Expressions Cookbook

Having opened this cookbook, you are probably eager to inject some of the ungainly strings of parentheses and question marks you find in its chapters right into your code. If you are ready to plug and play, be our guest: the practical regular expressions are listed and described in Chapters 4 through 9. But the initial chapters of this book may save you a lot of time in the long run. For instan…

Regular Expression Pocket Reference

Regular expressions are a language used for parsing and manipulating text. They are often used to perform complex search-and-replace operations, and to validate that text data is well-formed. Today, regular expressions are included in most program- ming languages, as well as in many scripting languages, editors, applications, databases, and command-line tools. This book aims to give quick acce…

Ruby on Rails

In July 2004 David Heinemeier Hansson released Ruby on Rails, a Web framework for the Ruby pro- gramming language. It quickly gained momentum and became notorious for being a highly productive Model-View-Controller (MVC) Web framework that was particularly well suited to Agile development. Favoring sensible conventions over verbose confi guration fi les, Rails (as it is often called for shor…

Ruby Wizardry

This book would not have been possible without the tireless efforts of dozens—possibly even dozens of dozens!—of people. First, my wife, Laura, who not only tolerated my all-night writing sessions and endless requests for feedback on story ideas, but also at various times pinch hit as literary agent, proofreader, sanity checker, and stop-reading-the-Internet- and-get-back-to-work!-er.

Safe C++

Astute readers such as yourself may be wondering whether the title of this book, Safe C++, presumes that the C++ programming language is somehow unsafe. Good catch! That is indeed the presumption. The C++ language allows programmers to make all kinds of mistakes, such as accessing memory beyond the bounds of an allocated array, or reading memory that was never initialized, or allocating memory …

SAS Programming and Data Visualization Techniques

When using the SG procedures—PROC SGPLOT, PROC SGPANEL, PROC SGSCATTER, and PROC SGRENDER—the ODS GRAPHICS statement is optional. However, doing so can change a number of important features of the output image (such as the size and file format); and with new SAS versions, ODS Graphics supports new image formats. In particular, this chapter examines the EMF image-file format in more detail, …

SciPy and NumPy

Python is a powerful programming language when considering portability, flexibility, syntax, style, and extendability. The language was written by Guido van Rossum with clean syntax built in. To define a function or initiate a loop, indentation is used insteadofbrackets.Theresultisprofound:aPythonprogrammercanlookatanygiven uncommented Python code and quickly understand its inner workings and…

SQL Server 2012 T-SQL Recipes

Sometimes all one wants is a good example. That’s our motivation for accepting the baton from Joe Sack and revising his excellent work to cover the very latest edition of Microsoft’s database engine—SQL Server 2012. T-SQL is fundamental to working with SQL Server. Almost everything you do, from querying a table to creating indexes to backing up and recovering, ultimately comes down to T-S…

An Introduction to Economic Reasoning

Why, indeed? A good short answer is that you can’t get away from it. Almost everything you do involves economics. Why do people have to earn a living? Why do some people—heavyweight boxers, rock stars, and movie producers, for example—earn vastly more than bus drivers or policemen? What determines the price of a Big Mac, or, for that matter, a Mack truck? Whenever you have to deal with mo…

Success in Programming

“What an amazing job you have,” a developer recently told me during a break at a conference. “You seem so passionate about it. i wish i could be paid to do something i like, too.” Sadly, he was not the first one to tell me something like this, and he won’t be the last. How can great developers reach the next level and do what they like for a living? How come someone like me, an averag…

Sudoku Programming with C

This is a practical book that will tell you everything you need to know to solve and create Sudoku puzzles in C. My intention is not to teach you how to become a software developer but rather how to use computer programs to deal with Sudokus. Therefore, you will not find here theoretical analyses of algorithms, solvability problems, or complexity theory. All the code I present and comment on in…

Qualitative Research from Start to Finish

As its main theme, the book presents qualitative research from a practical perspective. Such a view reveals insights into how qualitative research is done, at the ground level. The approach should be especially useful if in fact you are actually wanting to conduct a qualitative study—whether it is to be self-standing, part of a larger study, or an academic or training assignment for an underg…

TCL/TK IN A NUTSHELL

This book is about Tcl, the scripting language developed by John Ousterhout. Tcl stands for tool command language and was originally designed as a simple scripting language interpreter that could be embedded inside applications written in the C language. With the addition of the Tk graphical toolkit and a host of other language extensions supporting such features as graphics, relational databas…

Text Algorithms

One of the simplest and natural types of information representation is by means of written texts. Data to be processed often does not decompose into independent records. This type of data is characterized by the fact that it can be written down as a long sequence of characters. Such linear sequence is called a text. The texts are central in "word processing" systems, which provide facilities fo…
