Algorytmy. Ilustrowany przewodnik

Aditya Bhargava

Aby projektować aplikacje, nie wystarczy poznać kilka języków programowania i opanować zestaw narzędzi deweloperskich. Konieczna jest jeszcze wiedza o tym, w jaki sposób rozwiązać dany problem, innymi słowy, trzeba poznać algorytmy. Naturalnie w praktyce programistycznej stosuje się ograniczony zestaw algorytmów. Zostały one już dawno przeanalizowane i przetestowane. Opisano je w wielu trudnych książkach najeżonych niezrozumiałymi schematami i dowodami z pogranicza matematyki, statystyki i jeszcze kilku innych nieprzystępnych dziedzin. Jeśli chcesz po prostu zrozumieć działanie algorytmów, a nie masz ochoty na mozolne przedzieranie się przez setki trudnych stron, to trzymasz w ręku właściwą książkę! Dzięki temu interesującemu, przystępnemu podręcznikowi szybko przyswoisz sobie najważniejsze pojęcia i łatwo zrozumiesz, w jaki sposób algorytmy pomagają w rozwiązywaniu problemów programistycznych. Pokazano w nim słabe i mocne strony najważniejszych algorytmów. Nie zabrakło przydatnych schematów i przykładowych fragmentów kodu napisanego w Pythonie. Książkę tę szczególnie docenią programiści samoucy, inżynierowie i każdy, kto chce zyskać wiedzę o algorytmach. W tej książce przedstawiono między innymi: wyjaśnienie takich pojęć, jak tablice skrótów, listy powiązane, rekurencja, algorytmy sortowania, problem komiwojażera, algorytmy zachłanne, analiza szybkości algorytmów metodą dużego O, algorytmy grafów, w tym algorytm wyszukiwania wszerz i algorytm Dijkstry, algorytm KNN służący do uczenia maszynowego. Poznaj algorytmy i przekonaj się, jak bardzo są przydatne!

Der Westslawische Name Niemcy für Deutsche und Deutschland im Schrifttum des Frühmittelalters

Idzi Panic

Jest rzeczą zastanawiającą, że wschodni sąsiedzi Niemiec (Polacy, Czesi) kraj ten nazwali nietypowo: nazwą, która nie odwołuje się do jakiegokolwiek terminu geograficznego, etnicznego lub osobowego. Nazwali ich Niemcami, co jakoby ma oddawać fakt, iż mieszkańcy tego kraju mówili językiem niezrozumiałym, byli „niemi”. Jak zatem wytłumaczyć fakt, że równie niezrozumiałych Węgrów, czy też Pieczyngów nie nazwano niemymi, Niemcami? Przyjrzyjmy się więc, jak rzecz przedstawiała się w istocie.

The Scarecrow of Oz

L. Frank Baum

The ninth book the action of which takes place in the wonderful Land of Oz is indeed a masterpiece. The mix of Oz and non-Oz characters into one story was the result of the request made by Baums readers and a great invention that gave birth to a story that captivates any reader, child and adult alike. This was published in July 16, 1915 and has been on record as being Baums personal favorite of his series. The story this time around revolves around Scarecrow and his adventures alongside Captain Bill and Trot as they take on a perilous quest through the Land of Oz to overthrow the villainous King Krewl of Jinxland and restore rule to its rightful successor. Capn Bill and Trot had previously appeared in two other novels by Baum, The Sea Fairies and Sky Island. Apart from the appearances of familiar faces, the novel also accommodates a fresh set of characters and magical creatures residing in the Land of Oz, further contributing to its classification as a typical Baum masterpiece.
