Download or read book The Node Book written by Zipporah Pottenger Dobyns and published by American Federation of Astr. This book was released on 2010-08 with total page 124 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ancient myths describe an eclipse as the Sun or Moon being swallowed by a dragon. Since an eclipse could only occur near the lunar nodes, these became the head and tail of the dragon. Older references and eastern astrology still call the Moon's North Node the Dragon's Head and the South Node the Dragon's Tail. The Node Book goes beyond detailed information about the Moon's Nodes in signs and houses. Also included are chapters focused on the planetary nodes of Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Pluto, and the nodes of the four main asteroids: Ceres, Vesta, Juno, and Pallas. Extensive tables and directions for their use make it easy to find the nodes for the planets and asteroids.

Book What Is Node

  • Release : 2011-07-13
  • ISBN : 1449314481
  • Pages : 30 pages

Download or read book What Is Node written by Brett McLaughlin and published by "O'Reilly Media, Inc.". This book was released on 2011-07-13 with total page 30 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Node.js. It’s the latest in a long line of “Are you cool enough to use me?” programming languages, APIs, and toolkits. In that sense, it lands squarely in the tradition of Rails, and Ajax, and Hadoop, and even to some degree iPhone programming and HTML5. Dig a little deeper, and you’ll hear that Node.js (or, as it’s more briefly called by many, simply “Node”) is a server-side solution for JavaScript, and in particular, for receiving and responding to HTTP requests. If that doesn’t completely boggle your mind, by the time the conversation heats up with discussion of ports, sockets, and threads, you’ll tend to glaze over. Is this really JavaScript? In fact, why in the world would anyone want to run JavaScript outside of a browser, let alone the server? The good news is that you’re hearing (and thinking) about the right things. Node really is concerned with network programming and server-side request/response processing. The bad news is that like Rails, Ajax, and Hadoop before it, there’s precious little clear information available. There will be, in time — as there now is for these other “cool” frameworks that have matured — but why wait for a book or tutorial when you might be able to use Node today, and dramatically improve the maintainability.
