Matematyka dla programistów JavaScript
Jacek Piechota
Programowanie matematyki wcale nie musi być trudne! Przypomnij sobie reguły i działania matematyczne Poznaj w praktyce funkcje matematyczne JavaScriptu Zamieniaj wzory i problemy matematyczne na algorytmy Naucz się wizualizować matematykę Spójrzmy prawdzie w oczy: większość ludzi nie lubi matematyki. Co dziwne, nie jest ona również ulubioną dziedziną wiedzy wielu osób zawodowo parających się informatyką. Niejedną z nich w prawdziwy popłoch wpędza konieczność posłużenia się choćby najbardziej niewinnie wyglądającą funkcją matematyczną, nie wspominając o przeprowadzeniu bardziej skomplikowanych obliczeń statystycznych, wykreśleniu przebiegu funkcji czy implementowaniu działań na macierzach. Niepotrzebnie, bo matematyka wcale nie jest taka straszna! Przekonasz się o tym dzięki tej książce, która szybko i łatwo wprowadzi Cię w świat obliczeń matematycznych przeprowadzanych za pomocą komputera. Z wykorzystaniem praktycznych przykładów, opracowanych w popularnym języku JavaScript, przedstawia ona sposoby wykonywania rozmaitych działań i przekształceń, stosowania algorytmów i wizualizowania otrzymanych wyników. Przestań się martwić i zostań prawdziwym matematycznym ninja! Podstawy matematyki i teorii informacji Działania na liczbach binarnych i heksadecymalnych Kombinatoryka i prawdopodobieństwo Działania na wektorach i macierzach Przetwarzanie liczb zespolonych Wykresy krzywych Chaos, fraktale i paradoksy Matematyka i JavaScript to doskonały tandem!
MEAN Cookbook. The meanest set of MEAN stack solutions around
Nicholas McClay
The MEAN Stack is a framework for web application development using JavaScript-based technologies; MongoDB, Express, Angular, and Node.js. If you want to expand your understanding of using JavaScript to produce a fully functional standalone web application, including the web server, user interface, and database, then this book can help guide you through that transition. This book begins by configuring the frontend of the MEAN stack web application using the Angular JavaScript framework. We then implement common user interface enhancements before moving on to configuring the server layer of our MEAN stack web application using Express for our backend APIs. You will learn to configure the database layer of your MEAN stack web application using MongoDB and the Mongoose framework, including modeling relationships between documents. You will explore advanced topics such as optimizing your web application using WebPack as well as the use of automated testing with the Mocha and Chai frameworks. By the end of the book, you should have acquired a level of proficiency that allows you to confidently build a full production-ready and scalable MEAN stack application.

MediaWiki Skins Design. Designing attractive skins and templates for your MediaWiki site
Richard Carter
This book takes you step by step through customizing your MediaWiki skin. It is full of practical examples of MediaWiki skinning techniques, and clear explanations of how MediaWiki skinning works. The early chapters go through each element of a MediaWiki design, showing the CSS and PHP tags necessary to customize MediaWiki's appearance. Later chapters look at ways to further enhance your design using extra graphics, JavaScript, AJAX, dynamic CSS, and more. This book is aimed at web designers or wiki administrators who want to customize the look of MediaWiki with custom skins. The reader will already have a MediaWiki installation that they are targeting with their skin. It might be their own installation, or they might be a designer developing a custom look for a client. The book does not cover setting up or using MediaWiki, except features specifically related to skinning. The book assumes that you are familiar with CSS and HTML, but no prior knowledge of PHP is required.
