Download or read book Baby Git Guidebook for Developers written by Jacob Stopak and published by Jacob Stopak. This book was released on 2018-12-25 with total page 141 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Baby-Git Guidebook for Developers is intended to accompany the Baby-Git project created by Jacob Stopak. Baby-Git refers to the very first version of the Git codebase written by Linus Torvalds (the creator of Linux) in 2005. Baby-Git is written in the C programming language and consists of about 1,000 lines of code and a total of 7 commands, and they actually work. The simplicity and "smallness" of the code make Baby-Git the perfect codebase for curious developers to study in order to learn how the code works. The fact that arguably the most popular and important tool for collaborative software development in the history of the coding world is simple enough for a novice developer to understand directly from its initial code is really an amazing thing. This guidebook makes the learning experience even easier, by delving into Git's original C code in detail to help developers learn what makes Git tick.

Download or read book C for Beginners written by Jonas Fagerberg and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2015-11-01 with total page 714 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is primarily aimed towards developers who are new to C#, have none or very limited prior experience with C# and are up for a CHALLENGE. The book does not presuppose that you have any prior C# knowledge since the purpose of the book is to teach you just that. Even if you already have created a couple of small C# projects on your own or have been developing applications for a while you might find the content in this book useful as a refresher. The first part describes the fundamentals of the C# language such as variables, loops and methods. The book then gets progressively more challenging, describing, among other things, object oriented programming, generics, multithreading, asynchronous operations and reflection. The content is tactical, practical and highly modular to make it easier for you to learn. This mean that you actually have to read and implement the exercises in order to learn everything the book teaches. It is not recommended that you only read the book conceptually from cover to cover; the best way to learn is to be tactical and actually implement the practical exercises after reading each chapter. If you are aspiring to take the Microsoft exam 70-483 this book can be a great complement to the more traditional encyclopedic books on the market in that it contains many complete examples and exercises that you can implement to deepen your understanding of C#. The author has worked professionally with C# since it was released and as a Microsoft Certified Instructor for a number of years teaching C#, Visual Basic.NET and the .NET Framework. Read what a former student has to say about the book: "Where to begin ? If someone asked me just off the street, how do you learn the basics of programming - this is the book I would point to. Having myself spent hundreds of dollars on expensive and quite frankly, not very indulging C# reference books (or encyclopedias), I am very fortunate (and now as I realise that this method of teaching exists, frustrated...) to have stumbled upon this one. The layout of the book speaks for itself: Read a concise, to the point description about the basics of what you are about to implement, follow the implementation step by step and review the code/run it. Rinse and repeat. It is really simple and just as powerful a concept, if not more, than actually having a teacher standing by your side - guiding you. If you find the 1,2,3 steps dull and too easy, go do the implementation yourself and you will still find yourself learning alot by reviewing how the author implemented the code. This is truly how to learn fast and still be able to pick up those gems of advice that will take you countless of hours to find out yourself, while still maintaining a level of curiosity none of the other books I've read on programming has ever done. You are literally reading a story book. This is a story with you, as a reader, involved with the creation of a program. The author smooths out the rough edges and all the non-essentials to give you a pleasant, first-hand experience of how a program should be constructed. Just as mastering any craft, mastering programming is not about learning everything at once. Instead you incrementally build your knowledge for a complete understanding and eventually see how the pieces fit togheter. This book is the trademark of a master; conveying the art of storytelling as a technical User-Story for the un-initiated, but eager to learn student. In much the same way as a good fictional book would've done, this book literally grasps you and engages you in learning, that is if you invest the time required. If you have ever found yourself scrolling through MSDN to learn something fundamental about the nature of the C# language and feeling a slight sensation of despair; this is your remedy. In other words: this book is great, read it and become Informed." - Rony Lindgren

Download or read book Guide to Competitive Programming written by Antti Laaksonen and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-01-02 with total page 283 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This invaluable textbook presents a comprehensive introduction to modern competitive programming. The text highlights how competitive programming has proven to be an excellent way to learn algorithms, by encouraging the design of algorithms that actually work, stimulating the improvement of programming and debugging skills, and reinforcing the type of thinking required to solve problems in a competitive setting. The book contains many “folklore” algorithm design tricks that are known by experienced competitive programmers, yet which have previously only been formally discussed in online forums and blog posts. Topics and features: reviews the features of the C++ programming language, and describes how to create efficient algorithms that can quickly process large data sets; discusses sorting algorithms and binary search, and examines a selection of data structures of the C++ standard library; introduces the algorithm design technique of dynamic programming, and investigates elementary graph algorithms; covers such advanced algorithm design topics as bit-parallelism and amortized analysis, and presents a focus on efficiently processing array range queries; surveys specialized algorithms for trees, and discusses the mathematical topics that are relevant in competitive programming; examines advanced graph techniques, geometric algorithms, and string techniques; describes a selection of more advanced topics, including square root algorithms and dynamic programming optimization. This easy-to-follow guide is an ideal reference for all students wishing to learn algorithms, and practice for programming contests. Knowledge of the basics of programming is assumed, but previous background in algorithm design or programming contests is not necessary. Due to the broad range of topics covered at various levels of difficulty, this book is suitable for both beginners and more experienced readers.
