Python is a general-purpose interpreted, interactive, object-oriented, and high-level programming language. It was created by Guido van Rossum during 1985- 1990. Like Perl, Python source code is also available under the GNU General Public License (GPL). This book gives enough understanding on Python programming language. Python is a high-level, interpreted, interactive and object-oriented scripting language. Python is designed to be highly readable. It uses English keywords frequently where as other languages use punctuation, and it has fewer syntactical constructions than other languages. Python is a MUST for students and working professionals to become a great Software Engineer specially when they are working in Web Development Domain.

This book presents different tools and techniques used for Decision Support Systems (DSS), including decision tree and table, and their modifications, multi-criteria decision analysis techniques, network tools of decision support, and various case-based reasoning methods supported by examples and case studies. Latest developments for each of the techniques have been discussed separately, and possible future research areas are duly identified as intelligent and spatial DSS. This book aims at describing different tools and techniques in order to assist the decision making in all levels of management. The field of AI includes several concepts such as, Machine Learning, natural language processing (NLP), Deep Learning, expert system, artificial general intelligence, speech recognition, problem-solving, fuzzy logic, cognitive computing, and nature-based techniques. The subsequent section is going to discuss different nature-based algorithms (genetic algorithm (GA), particle swarm optimization (PSO), ant colony optimization (ACO), artificial immune algorithm (AIA), differential evolution (DE), simulated annealing (SA), etc).

Use Akka to solve the big problems of distributed systems—from multithreading and concurrency, to handling scalability and failure. Akka in Action, Second Edition teaches you to use the latest version of Akka to solve common problems of distributed systems. Akka contributor Francisco Lopez-Sancho demonstrates Akka’s complex concepts through real-world use cases, including clustering, sharding, persistence, and deploying to Kubernetes. Discover the power of the Actor model, and how to leverage most of the Akka modules to create microservices that are reliable and fault tolerant. Akka is a toolkit of libraries that make it easy to implement distributed applications in Scala and Java. Akka’s Actor model avoids many of the complexities of multithreading, while making systems elastic and resilient, and provides strong consistency. Akka gives you a single abstraction to deal with concurrency and scalability--the Actor Model, which is coherent semantics that let you work on your business logic without worrying about whether your program needs to run on a thousand servers or just one.

Perform image processing, visualization, and analysis.

Image Processing Toolbox provides a comprehensive set of reference-standard algorithms and workflow apps for image processing, analysis, visualization, and algorithm development. You can perform image segmentation, image enhancement, noise reduction, geometric transformations, and image registration using deep learning and traditional image processing techniques. The toolbox supports processing of 2D, 3D, and arbitrarily large images. Image Processing Toolbox apps let you automate common image processing workflows. You can interactively segment image data, compare image registration techniques, and batch-process large datasets. Visualization functions and apps let you explore images, 3D volumes, and videos; adjust contrast; create histograms; and manipulate regions of interest (ROIs). You can accelerate your algorithms by running them on multicore processors and GPUs. Many toolbox functions support C/C++ code generation for desktop prototyping and embedded vision system deployment.

Written for developers who need to create user-facing Domain-Specific Languages (DSLs), Business-Friendly DSLs unlocks clear and practical methods to create DSLs with easy-to-use interfaces. Imagine if your non-technical clients could safely produce software without the need for anyone to manually write code. Domain-specific languages are purpose-built programming interfaces that make that possible—no programming experience required. Written for developers who need to create user-facing DSLs, Business-Friendly DSLs unlocks clear and practical methods to create DSLs with easy-to-use interfaces. Author Meinte Boersma lays out an iterative process for creating languages accessible to domain experts such as operations specialists, data analysts, and financial experts. You'll start with an overview of software language engineering before diving into the unique projectional editing paradigm that makes it easy to produce DSLs for business.

Learn Haskell by doing Haskell projects! In this book, you’ll get practical experience writing Haskell code and applying functional programming to actual development challenges. In Haskell Bookcamp, you’ll build your Haskell skills by working through hands-on challenges and conundrums. You’ll learn to look at each project through a Haskell lens, and then solve it using features like lazy evaluation, immutable data structures, and monads. And the projects are interesting! You’ll take on writing a tool for working with CSV files, creating a domain specific language for music, an image processing library using concurrency for high performance, and more! Haskell delivers clean and safe code with mathematical precision and certainty. The pure functional coding language lets you use high level abstractions to keep your code clean and easily readable, and it actively disallows many of the dangerous behaviors that lead to bugs and crashes. These features make Haskell an amazing choice for applications that need an extra guarantee of safety, such such as in smart contracts, data intensive applications, and large scale distributed systems.
