Rade Jarak
Książka Rade Jaraka, chorwackiego pisarza średniego pokolenia, jest sugestywną i liryczną sagą pewnej rodziny z Dubrownika. Indywidualne losy członków kilku pokoleń rodziny Romiciów uwikłane są w krwawe konflikty zbrojne XX wieku, które przynoszą jedynie cierpienie i śmierć. Choć wojny oszczędzają Romiciów, to jednak najczęściej tracą oni życie w okolicznościach równie dramatycznych jak wojenne. Książkę tę różni od wielu chorwackich opowieści o wojnie pewien ważny szczegół. Podczas gdy w większości z nich za niedolę człowieka obwinia się bezwzględną logikę dziejów (wielką Historię), Jarak redukuje kontekst polityczny, koncentrując się na ludzkich ułomnościach. Powieść zbudowana jest z niedługich, niechronologicznie zestawionych opowiastek, dygresyjnych miniatur, które mogłyby być samodzielnymi nowelami. Układają się jak rozrzucone puzzle – bez założonego z góry porządku. Ta szczególna cecha narracji odpowiadać ma sposobowi, w jaki człowiek przywołuje zapamiętane zdarzenia, a częste zmiany czasu opowieści – z teraźniejszego na przeszły i odwrotnie – wytrącają czytelnika z bardziej konwencjonalnych trybów doświadczania opisywanego świata. Uważny i cierpliwy czytelnik może złożyć drobne, nieregularne fragmenty życia bohaterów w wielokolorową, fascynującą układankę. Tłem są losy Jugosławii, która zniknęła wraz bohaterami tej opowieści.

Świat siedemnastoletniej Julii z dnia na dzień wywrócił się do góry nogami. Dziewczyna, będąc w niechcianej ciąży, mierzy się z przerastającymi ją problemami. Strach zaciska się na jej gardle, odbiera jasność myślenia i nadzieję na lepsze jutro. Czy pomoc proponowana przez nieznajomą kobietę okaże się dla niej ratunkiem?

Julia is a high-level, high-performance dynamic programming language for numerical computing. If you want to understand how to avoid bottlenecks and design your programs for the highest possible performance, then this book is for you. The book starts with how Julia uses type information to achieve its performance goals, and how to use multiple dispatches to help the compiler emit high-performance machine code. After that, you will learn how to analyze Julia programs and identify issues with time and memory consumption. We teach you how to use Julia's typing facilities accurately to write high-performance code and describe how the Julia compiler uses type information to create fast machine code. Moving ahead, you'll master design constraints and learn how to use the power of the GPU in your Julia code and compile Julia code directly to the GPU. Then, you'll learn how tasks and asynchronous IO help you create responsive programs and how to use shared memory multithreading in Julia. Toward the end, you will get a flavor of Julia's distributed computing capabilities and how to run Julia programs on a large distributed cluster.By the end of this book, you will have the ability to build large-scale, high-performance Julia applications, design systems with a focus on speed, and improve the performance of existing programs.

Julia offers the high productivity and ease of use of Python and R with the lightning-fast speed of C++. There’s never been a better time to learn this language, thanks to its large-scale adoption across a wide range of domains, including fintech, biotech and artificial intelligence (AI).You will begin by learning how to set up a running Julia platform, before exploring its various built-in types. This Learning Path walks you through two important collection types: arrays and matrices. You’ll be taken through how type conversions and promotions work, and in further chapters you'll study how Julia interacts with operating systems and other languages. You’ll also learn about the use of macros, what makes Julia suitable for numerical and scientific computing, and how to run external programs.Once you have grasped the basics, this Learning Path goes on to how to analyze the Iris dataset using DataFrames. While building a web scraper and a web app, you’ll explore the use of functions, methods, and multiple dispatches. In the final chapters, you'll delve into machine learning, where you'll build a book recommender system.By the end of this Learning Path, you’ll be well versed with Julia and have the skills you need to leverage its high speed and efficiency for your applications.This Learning Path includes content from the following Packt products:• Julia 1.0 Programming - Second Edition by Ivo Balbaert• Julia Programming Projects by Adrian Salceanu

The release of Julia 1.0 is now ready to change the technical world by combining the high productivity and ease of use of Python and R with the lightning-fast speed of C++. Julia 1.0 programming gives you a head start in tackling your numerical and data problems. You will begin by learning how to set up a running Julia platform, before exploring its various built-in types. With the help of practical examples, this book walks you through two important collection types: arrays and matrices. In addition to this, you will be taken through how type conversions and promotions work. In the course of the book, you will be introduced to the homo-iconicity and metaprogramming concepts in Julia. You will understand how Julia provides different ways to interact with an operating system, as well as other languages, and then you'll discover what macros are. Once you have grasped the basics, you’ll study what makes Julia suitable for numerical and scientific computing, and learn about the features provided by Julia. By the end of this book, you will also have learned how to run external programs. This book covers all you need to know about Julia in order to leverage its high speed and efficiency for your applications.
