Book Synopsis Introduction to Programming and Problem-Solving Using Scala by : Mark C. Lewis
Download or read book Introduction to Programming and Problem-Solving Using Scala written by Mark C. Lewis and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2016-10-14 with total page 573 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Praise for the first edition: "The well-written, comprehensive book...[is] aiming to become a de facto reference for the language and its features and capabilities. The pace is appropriate for beginners; programming concepts are introduced progressively through a range of examples and then used as tools for building applications in various domains, including sophisticated data structures and algorithms...Highly recommended. Students of all levels, faculty, and professionals/practitioners.—D. Papamichail, University of Miami in CHOICE Magazine Mark Lewis’ Introduction to the Art of Programming Using Scala was the first textbook to use Scala for introductory CS courses. Fully revised and expanded, the new edition of this popular text has been divided into two books. Introduction to Programming and Problem-Solving Using Scala is designed to be used in first semester college classrooms to teach students beginning programming with Scala. The book focuses on the key topics students need to know in an introductory course, while also highlighting the features that make Scala a great programming language to learn. The book is filled with end-of-chapter projects and exercises, and the authors have also posted a number of different supplements on the book website. Video lectures for each chapter in the book are also available on YouTube. The videos show construction of code from the ground up and this type of "live coding" is invaluable for learning to program, as it allows students into the mind of a more experienced programmer, where they can see the thought processes associated with the development of the code.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Meet Wonderful -- a sweet and precocious young girl growing up in the Southside of Chicago. Wonderful, her mother and father, and six brothers and sister grew up in a part of town that most people ignored in the days of the 1960s. Not much has changed as far as the neighborhood, but Wonderful has changed -- some may even say has been reborn. Wonderful's father died when she was only eleven years old. This tragic event molded the way that Wonderful perceived things. She was angry and she worked out that anger during her teenage years and into her adult life through sex, drugs, alcohol, abusive relationships and self-destructive habits. One day everything changed -- Wonderful had an epiphany -- she began to view life in a brand new way. She regained her faith in God; she found a Twelve-Step program to rid herself of the addictions, both physical and mental, that had kept her from being free. She became a talented, humorous and intelligent woman. In other words, Wonderful healed. She embraced her pain and used it to heal herself, to give hope and to inspire others to do the same. Taylor Ashley Storm's beautifully written tale is based on her life.It is a story of love, acceptance, and forgiveness. It will resonate with anyone who is struggling with pain, grief and loneliness and gives voice to those who need to know that life can be wondrous. Author Bio: Taylor Ashley Storm is a writer, poet, and songwriter. She lives in Chicago. Begging for C.H.A.N.G.E. is her first book.

Book Synopsis Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil by : John Berendt
Download or read book Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil written by John Berendt and published by Random House. This book was released on 1994-01-13 with total page 417 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: NATIONAL BESTSELLER • A modern classic of true crime, set in a most beguiling Southern city—now in a 30th anniversary edition with a new afterword by the author “Elegant and wicked . . . might be the first true-crime book that makes the reader want to book a bed and breakfast for an extended weekend at the scene of the crime.”—The New York Times Book Review Shots rang out in Savannah’s grandest mansion in the misty, early morning hours of May 2, 1981. Was it murder or self-defense? For nearly a decade, the shooting and its aftermath reverberated throughout this hauntingly beautiful city of moss-hung oaks and shaded squares. In this sharply observed, suspenseful, and witty narrative, John Berendt skillfully interweaves a hugely entertaining first-person account of life in this isolated remnant of the Old South with the unpredictable twists and turns of a landmark murder case. It is a spellbinding story peopled by a gallery of remarkable characters: the well-bred society ladies of the Married Woman’s Card Club; the turbulent young gigolo; the hapless recluse who owns a bottle of poison so powerful it could kill every man, woman, and child in Savannah; the aging and profane Southern belle who is the “soul of pampered self-absorption”; the uproariously funny drag queen; the acerbic and arrogant antiques dealer; the sweet-talking, piano-playing con artist; young people dancing the minuet at the black debutante ball; and Minerva, the voodoo priestess who works her magic in the graveyard at midnight. These and other Savannahians act as a Greek chorus, with Berendt revealing the alliances, hostilities, and intrigues that thrive in a town where everyone knows everyone else. Brilliantly conceived and masterfully written, Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil is a sublime and seductive reading experience.
Book Synopsis Contemporary English by : W. E. Collinson
Download or read book Contemporary English written by W. E. Collinson and published by Vieweg+Teubner Verlag. This book was released on 2013-11-21 with total page 171 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is written primarily for foreign students and teachers of English. That purpose governs the whole presentment and organization of the material and the type of explanation offered. To my own fellow countrymen it may, at the highest reckoning, offer a means of bringing to the surface hidden memories of curious and amusing words. Probably it brings them little that is new, but it may stimulate them to seek out and regroup their own linguistic experiences. In fifty years' time the work might even claim the atten tion of the English philologist, whom it will provide with a certain amount of dated material for his historical inductions. For the present its mission is more humble and more practical. The first idea that such a collection as the present might not be unwelcome, lowe to Professor Jespersen~ whose kindness in looking through the first draft and suggesting improvements I acknowledge with deep grati tude. Mr. Bradley and Mr. Hutton, both of the Liver pool University Library, have unselfishly given me the benefit of their sharp eyes and wide reading; a number of their proposed emendations and additions have been gratefully embodied. My special thanks are due to Dr. Hittmair of the University of Innsbruck, whose encouragement and ungrudging help have throughout been of the greatest value to me. Finally I feel I must express my gratitude to the firm of Teubner for its care in preparing my MS.
