Język SQL. Przyjazny podręcznik. Wydanie II
Larry Rockoff
Najlepsze relacyjne bazy danych, takie jak Oracle czy MS SQL Server, są nierozłącznie związane z językiem SQL. Język ten stworzono po to, aby budować i użytkować bazy przechowujące ogromne ilości danych. Bez wątpienia SQL jest dość złożony, obejmuje wiele elementów i funkcji, jednak jego znajomość jest niezwykle ważna dla każdego, kto zajmuje się bazami danych, tworzy je czy nimi administruje. Również te osoby, które korzystają z narzędzi do raportowania w bazach danych, powinny przynajmniej dobrze zrozumieć podstawy tego języka. Niniejsza książka jest kolejnym wydaniem popularnego podręcznika, dzięki któremu zrozumiesz SQL, jego składnię i najważniejsze aspekty wykorzystywania. Poszczególne tematy zorganizowano w intuicyjny sposób, przedstawiając je w logicznej kolejności. Przykłady zastosowania języka dobrano tak, aby za pomocą małej próbki kodu umożliwić zrozumienie danej instrukcji SQL. W tym wydaniu zaktualizowano informacje o składni SQL stosowanej w Microsoft SQL Server 2016, MySQL 5.7 i Oracle 12c. Uzupełniono zagadnienia dotyczące logiki warunkowej, a także przedstawiono kilka nowych tematów, takich jak wspólne wyrażenia tablicowe czy wstawianie komentarzy do zapytań. Najważniejsze zagadnienia ujęte w książce: podstawowe informacje o relacyjnych bazach danych, składnia instrukcji SELECT i jej możliwości, agregacje danych i sum częściowych, stosowanie złączeń, podzapytań, widoków i logiki zbiorów, procedury składowane, aktualizacja danych i utrzymanie bazy, projektowanie baz danych i sposoby prezentacji danych. Poznaj SQL, a zrozumiesz bazy danych! Larry Rockoff jest ekspertem w dziedzinie języka SQL i analityki biznesowej. Specjalizuje się w stosowaniu narzędzi do raportowania w celu analizy danych znajdujących się w złożonych bazach danych. Ukończył studia MBA na Uniwersytecie Chicago. Jest autorem książek poświęconych językowi SQL i zastosowaniu oprogramowania Microsoft Access i Excel.

Języki i paradygmaty programowania. Teoria i praktyka
Feliks Kurp
Czym w rzeczywistości jest programowanie? I jak zacząć programować? Oprogramowanie jest dziś praktycznie wszędzie, a programiści od dawna należą do najbardziej poszukiwanych specjalistów. Na podstawie napisanego przez nich kodu funkcjonują już nie tylko komputery i smartfony. Oprogramowanie steruje sprzętami domowymi, telewizorem czy lodówką. W ramach tak zwanego internetu rzeczy wiele urządzeń technicznych komunikuje się między sobą bez udziału człowieka. Gwałtownie rozwija się sztuczna inteligencja, wymagająca specjalistycznego oprogramowania. Nie dziwi więc, że jego rozwój ciągle przyspiesza. W obliczu tych faktów odpowiedź na pytanie, jakiego języka programowania warto się nauczyć, jest trudna. Nawet dla osoby, która wie, w jaki sposób zamierza w przyszłości korzystać ze swoich informatycznych umiejętności. Autor książki proponuje nieco inne podejście do nauki programowania. Zachęca do zapoznania się z podstawowymi własnościami i możliwymi zastosowaniami kilku odległych od siebie, ale niezwykle ważnych aktualnie języków programowania, takich jak Python, Java SE, JavaScript i Prolog. W trakcie ich poznawania czytelnicy będą mieli okazję zgłębić filozofię programowania, a równocześnie zdobywać praktyczne umiejętności programistyczne na podstawowym poziomie. Starannie dobrany kod pokazuje możliwe zastosowania wybranych języków programowania. Pomoc w nauce stanowią też zadania do samodzielnego rozwiązania.
