With the subtitle "Blogs that get read", this book sets out to show readers how to master the art of writing engineering blog posts and articles.  Piotr Sarna and Cynthia Dunlop show how to create content developers will want to read and share. The book has practical tips, tricks, and techniques that can translate the ideas floating around your head into content that’s clear and compelling.

This book is a complete, practical foundation for writing professional web applications. Dr. Matt Smith starts with PHP fundamentals, then progresses through six carefully crafted sections covering essential patterns, security best practices, database integration, and advanced concepts like object-oriented programming. Each chapter builds on real-world examples showing how to solve common development challenges.

This is a quick-start reference to the core concepts of React. Max Schwarzmüller provides simple explanations, relevant examples, and step-by-step derivations. This second edition includes changes brought by React 19, including the new use() hook, form actions, and how to think about React on the server.

This book introduces readers to ROS 2 without requiring prior experience in robotics. Jonathan Cacace blends theoretical explanations with practical exercises, empowering readers to solve specific robotics problems while understanding the reasoning behind various approaches. The book covers a broad spectrum of robotics topics, including mobile robots, industrial manipulators, and aerial robots. These systems are simulated using the modern Gazebo simulator and programmed with ROS 2’s out-of-the-box tools and custom solutions using the ROS 2 API.

This book is a succinct reference on the core components of Java. Doug Lowe and Paul McFedries get right to the point, eliminating review material and wordy explanations. Designed for supplementing classroom learning, reviewing for a certification, or staying knowledgeable on the job, this is a direct reference.

The book focuses on the basics of Python programming fundamentals and introduction to present-day applications in technology and the upcoming state-of-art trends in a comprehensive manner. The text is based on Python 3.x and Rakesh Nayak and Nishu Gupta cover the fundamentals of Python with object-oriented concepts having numerous worked-out examples.

This book contains tutorials, project showcases, guides, product reviews, and more from the writers of The MagPi, the official Raspberry Pi magazine. It includes guides for media centres, game emulators, and more, and covers Raspberry Pi Zero 2 W, Raspberry Pi 4, and other Raspberry Pi models.

With the aid of 37 hands-on projects, this book moves quickly through the language basics while demonstrating problem-solving skills and how to tackle advanced concepts like fractals, dynamic systems, and nature-inspired algorithms. Dr. Faisal Islam explores the way Kotlin handles variables, control structures, functions, classes, and data structures, and shows how to create visualizations using Kotlin and the JavaFX graphics library.

In this book Francis Bach presents the foundations and latest advances of learning theory for graduate students as well as researchers who want to acquire a basic mathematical understanding of the most widely used machine learning architectures. Taking the position that learning theory does not exist outside of algorithms that can be run in practice, this book focuses on the theoretical analysis of learning algorithms as it relates to their practical performance. Bach provides the simplest formulations that can be derived from first principles, constructing mathematically rigorous results and proofs without overwhelming students.

In his final book, the late Henry Kissinger joins forces with two leading technologists, Eric Schmidt and Craig J. Mundie, to explore the challenges and opportunities presented by artificial intelligence. The authors argue that as it absorbs data, gains agency, and intermediates between humans and reality, AI will help us to address enormous crises, from climate change to geopolitical conflicts to income inequality.

This book, the latest edition of a book that has established itself as the definitive references for successive versions of Ada,  covers the full details of the core language Ada 2022 as approved by ISO in 2023, including new features that aid program proof and the efficient use of multicore architectures. John Barnes a founder member of the Ada design team, begins with the key ideas to the newcomer. The algorithmic features, structural features such as OOP and multitasking, and details of the standard library and interaction with the external environment are all covered in subsequent parts. 

Exhorting "Use R!" on the cover, this book is an example-based introduction to the statistical computing environment that does not assume any previous familiarity with R or other software packages. Maria Rizzo and Jim Albert present R functions in the context of interesting applications with real data. The book is aimed at users who have at least the equivalent of  undergraduate level calculus-based courses in statistics. The new edition includes expanded coverage of ggplot2 graphics, as well as new chapters on importing data and multivariate data methods.
