Have you wondered what makes functional programming such a big deal, but haven't been able to get through any of the explanations? We wrote this book for you. Effects are the unpredictable elements in your programs. Concerns like network communication or user interaction might seem easy, but they are devilishly difficult to get right. The pristine world of algorithms devolves into the gory reality of failures and inconsistency. Traditionally, we've coped with Effects incompletely and often unwittingly. Programs have been difficult to build, adapt, and maintain. Discover a groundbreaking approach to software development using Effect Systems to control the unpredictable elements in your systems. We focus on practical techniques you can apply immediately, making complex concepts accessible to all developers. You'll learn resilient system development in a straightforward, pragmatic way, using simplified code examples and clear explanatory prose. Effect Oriented Programming is a new paradigm for programming with Effect Systems. Since Effect Systems are a new and emerging paradigm, you have limited choices. Many programming languages do not have an Effect System. Some languages have built-in support for managing Effects, while others have support through libraries. New languages that incorporate Effect Systems include OCaml, Unison, and Roc. In this book, we focus on the concepts of Effect Systems, rather than language and library specifics. We use Scala 3, which has several Effect System libraries including ZIO, Cats Effects, and Kyo. These libraries (and others) contributed to our understanding of Effect Systems. This is not a book about ZIO. You do not need experience or understanding of ZIO to understand the code in this book. For this book, ZIO is only a means to understand Effect Systems. If you use a different language, the concepts of Effect Systems may only be useful when your language or a library supports them.

Classification problems are common in business, medicine, science, engineering and other sectors of the economy. Data scientists and Machine Learning professionals solve these problems through the use of classifiers. Choosing one of these data driven classification algorithms for a given problem is a challenging task. An important aspect involved in this task is classifier performance analysis (CPA). Introduction to Classifier Performance Analysis with R provides an introductory account of commonly used CPA techniques for binary and multiclass problems, and use of the R software system to accomplish the analysis. Coverage draws on the extensive literature available on the subject, including descriptive and inferential approaches to CPA. Exercises are included at the end of each chapter to reinforce learning. This book is for those who want a reasonably complete (at least at an introductory level) and up-to-date coverage on the analysis of classification algorithms through the use of performance measures and curves. It attempts to synthesize useful material from the vast published literature on the subject. Another motivation for the book is to show how R can be used to perform the required analysis. As computational software, R has already demonstrated its excellence to a large international community of users. Its appeal is further enhanced by recently developed packages and meta-packages for Data Science, Machine Learning, and classification performance analysis in particular. This is a useful resource for upper level undergraduate and masters level students in Data Science, Machine Learning and related disciplines. Practitioners interested in learning how to use R to evaluate classifier performance can also potentially benefit from the book. The material and references in the book can also serve the needs of researchers in CPA.

Complete eight Data Science projects that lock in important real world skills–along with a practical process you can use to learn any new technique quickly and efficiently. Solve Any Data Analysis Problem guides you through eight common scenarios you'll encounter as a data scientist or analyst. As you explore each project, you’ll also master a proven process for quickly learning new skills developed by author and Half Stack Data Science podcast host David Asboth. In Solve Any Data Analysis Problem you’ll learn how to shift the way you think about data from the structured clean problems you get in a classroom, book, or bootcamp to the messy open-ended challenges of the workplace. As you work through eight problems you’ll see over and over on the job, you’ll discover a solutions-driven methodology that’s focused on getting results. You’ll learn how to determine a minimum viable answer for your stakeholders, identify and obtain the data you need to deliver, and reliably present and iterate on your findings. Which tool you are comfortable doing the above in does not matter. I will provide example solutions to the projects in the book using Python, but the focus will be on problem-solving, not the specifics of the Python programming language. Appendix A gives you a quick overview of the skills and tools in the basic Data Science toolkit. If you need to brush up on anything, we’ve linked to some useful resources you can use to get up to speed. As for most solutions I provide, the code itself will be written in Python, primarily using the Pandas library. While code snippets will be used to explain the example solution, I will focus discussions on the conceptual solution and less on the specifics of the code. The solution will be in three parts: setting up the problem statement and the data, creating the first iteration of a solution, and a third part to review the work and decide on further steps.

Python is used in a wide range of geoscientific applications, such as in processing images for remote sensing, in generating and processing digital elevation models, and in analyzing time series. This book introduces methods of data analysis in the geosciences using Python that include basic statistics for univariate, bivariate, and multivariate data sets, time series analysis, and signal processing; the analysis of spatial and directional data; and image analysis. The text includes numerous examples that demonstrate how Python can be used on data sets from the earth sciences. Codes are available online through GitHub. The book Python Recipes for Earth Sciences is designed to help undergraduate and postgraduate students, doctoral students, post-doctoral researchers, and professionals alike in finding quick solutions to common data analysis problems in the earth sciences. It provides a minimal amount of theoretical background and demonstrates the application of all described methods via examples. The present book contains Python scripts that can be used to solve typical problems in the earth sciences via simple statistics, time series analysis, geostatistics, and image processing. It also demonstrates the application of selected advanced techniques of data analysis, such as nonlinear time series analysis, adaptive filtering, bootstrapping, and terrain analysis. In order to derive the maximum benefit from this book, the reader will need to have access to the Python software and be able to execute the recipes while reading the book. The Python recipes yield various graphs on the screen that are not shown in the printed book. The tutorial-style book does, however, contain numerous figures, thereby making it possible to go through the text without actually running Python on a computer. I developed the recipes using Python 3.8.8, though most recipes will also work with earlier software releases, but not with Python 2.

What does every new developer do when they are first learning to program? They print out strings to their terminal. It's how we learn! But printing out to the terminal isn't what you do with most professional applications. In those cases, you log in. Sometimes, you log into multiple locations at once. These logs may serve as an audit trail for compliance purposes or help the engineers debug what went wrong. Python Logging teaches you how to log in the Python programming language. Python is one of the most popular programming languages in the world. Python comes with a logging module that makes logging easy. You don’t need to be a programmer or engineer to use this book, but it helps. The primary target is people who want to learn about what logging in Python is and how to use it effectively. If you understand the basics of Python, then you’ll be even better off!

"Just pull that from the API" they said. "It'll be easy!" they said. How can you build the best web/mobile/client-side application, when the APIs you need to work with are poorly documented, struggle with sketchy performance, or generally make you feel like you're on a dangerous expidition into an ancient tomb, with hidden booby traps, doors operated by archaic runes, where one wrong move triggers swinging battering rambs to wreck your day into a wall of spikes. This whole premise of an API client-server relationship is inherently fraught with danger, because going over the network for anything can lead to unexpected errors, unexpected change, connection problems... hell a rat could have chewed through a cable. This book aims to help you not just react to these problems, but ideally prempt them and build an application that laughs in the face of danger. Just like with Build APIs You Won’t Hate, this book will take a non-academic, easy-to-read approach to some pretty complex topics around HTTP interactions, versioning, client-caching, state management, differences between how you interact with RPC, REST and GraphQL, using JSON Schema for local validation, and all sorts of other awesome stuff that nobody ever bothered to mention to you.
