Build working implementations of hash tables, written in the C programming language. The new and revised Second Edition has been enhanced with simplified code and more comprehensive explanations, aimed at improving clarity and comprehension while exploiting the latest features in C programming. This book starts with simple first attempts devoid of collision resolution strategies. It then progresses through improvements and extensions illustrating different design ideas and approaches, followed by experiments to validate the choices. You will learn how hash tables, when implemented and used appropriately, are exceptionally efficient data structures for representing sets and lookup tables, providing low overhead, constant time, insertion, deletion, and lookup operations. This book is an introduction to the hash table data structure. When implemented and used appropriately, hash tables are exceptionally efficient data structures for representing sets and lookup tables. They provide constant time, low overhead, insertion, deletion, and lookup. This book assumes you are familiar with programming and the C programming language. The theoretical parts of the book also assume some familiarity with probability theory and algorithmic theory, but nothing beyond what you would learn in an introductory course. The Joys of Hashing walks you through the implementation of efficient hash tables and the pros and cons of different design choices when building tables. The source code used in the book is available on GitHub for your re-use and experiments.

Practical introduction into type-level programming: design principles, design patterns, methodologies, approaches. An approachable, well-written, practice-oriented, academism-free guide into programming with types. How to build useful real-world type-level programs with low complexity and low risks. Pragmatic Type-Level Design is a book about programming in types, about the discipline of Software Design, lifted onto the level of types, and type-level approaches useful in real practice. I aim to provide a well-written and well-structured source of knowledge about type-level design. I’m not only talking about type-level features but also providing a reasoning framework for making the narrative complete and comprehensive. The central philosophy of this book - pragmatism - is used to build a practice-first methodology on how to approach types and not drown in the related complexity. The type-level design is difficult on its own, type-level features in various languages are difficult as well, and there is no need to raise the learning bar even more. Type-level programming has been around for a while, with many languages boasting rich type systems. It’s a domain beloved by many, especially in Haskell, where types are one of the language’s most compelling features. Haskell developers often gravitate toward the mathematical foundations of types, like Category Theory and Type Theory. Good old Haskell 2010 introduces a lot of type-level features. Type definitions, type classes, type variables, constraints, kinds, phantom types, and algebraic data types. With dozens of modern GHC extensions, it becomes orders of magnitude more powerful. Type-level literals, type families, multi-parameter type classes, generalized algebraic data types, different options for type-level polymorphism, et cetera, et cetera – it’s too long to enumerate all these tools, what to say about the explosion of all possible ways to combine them. The book will be useful for developers who want to start doing real things on the type level.

Effective Kotlin summarizes the best practices and experiences of the Kotlin community, together with a deep explanation of some lesser-known Kotlin functionalities. All of the best practices are presented as simple rules with detailed explanations. Kotlin is a powerful and pragmatic language, but it's not enough to know about its features. We also need to know when they should be used and in what way. This book is a guide for Kotlin developers on how to become excellent Kotlin developers. It presents and explains in-depth the best practices for Kotlin development. Each item is presented as a clear rule of thumb, supported by detailed explanations and practical examples. Why do we decide to use Kotlin in our projects instead of Java, jаvascript, or C++? For developers, the answer is often that Kotlin is a modern language with a lot of useful features. For business, the answer is usually that Kotlin is a safe language, meaning that it is less prone to errors due to its design. You don’t need to have any experience with development to get upset when an application crashes or there is an error on a website that does not let you check out after you’ve spent an hour adding products to your basket. Fewer crashes improve the lives of both users and developers, thus providing significant business value. Safety is important for us, and Kotlin is a really safe language, but it still needs developer support to be truly safe. In this chapter, we’ll talk about the most important best practices for safety in Kotlin. This book does not teach the basics. It assumes that you have enough knowledge and skills to do Kotlin development.
