This book is designed for those new to Java and interested in understanding how ChatGPT/GPT-4 can enhance programming. It offers a unique approach to learning Java, combining traditional hand-written code with cutting-edge ChatGPT-generated examples. The book covers the basics of Java programming and development environments, including understanding recursion, strings, arrays, fundamental data structures, algorithm analysis, queues and stacks, and follows with the role of ChatGPT in generating, explaining, and debugging code. Companion files with source code and figures available for downloading. It’s an essential resource for those starting Java programming and for anyone curious about the applications of ChatGPT in coding. First and foremost, one of the most compelling reasons for using ChatGPT is the speed at which it can generate code. While hand-written code often requires a substantial amount of time for planning, writing, and debugging, ChatGPT can produce functional code snippets in a matter of seconds. This rapid code generation can be especially useful in the development phase, allowing for quick prototyping and testing of ideas. It’s an efficient way to explore multiple solutions to a problem, thereby streamlining the development process. Secondly, the code generated by ChatGPT serves as an interesting contrast to hand-written code. While hand-written code often reflects the individual styles and best practices adhered to by professional programmers, ChatGPT-generated code offers a different perspective. This can lead to insightful discussions on code efficiency, readability, and maintainability. This book is intended primarily for people who have limited exposure to Java and are interested in learning about data structures.

Today’s industries are faced with a growing demand for vision systems due to their non-invasive characteristics in inspecting product quality. These systems identify surface defects and faults, and verify components’ orientation and their measurements, etc. This book explores the vision techniques needed to design and develop your own industrial vision system with the help of Raspberry Pi. You’ll start by reviewing basic concepts and applications of machine vision systems, followed by the preliminaries of Python, OpenCV, required libraries, and installing OpenCV for Python on Raspberry Pi. These are used when implementing image processing for the system applications. You’ll then look at interfacing techniques and some of the challenges industrial vision systems encounter, such as lighting and camera angles. Algorithms and image processing techniques are also discussed, along with Machine Learning and Deep Learning techniques. Later chapters explain the use of GUI apps and real-time applications of Industrial vision systems. Each chapter concludes with examples and demo implementations to facilitate your knowledge of the concepts. By the end of the book, you’ll be able to build and deploy computer vision applications with Python, OpenCV, and Raspberry Pi.

Python is one of the most popular and easiest programming languages out there. Learning it -- and mastering the craft -- is a walk in the park when you have the right guidance. Graphical User Interface(GUI) is a form of user interface which allows users to interact with computers through visual indicators using items such as icons, menus, windows, etc. It has advantages over the Command Line Interface(CLI) where users interact with computers by writing commands using keyboard only and whose usage is more difficult than GUI. What is Tkinter? Tkinter is the inbuilt Python module that is used to create GUI applications. It is one of the most commonly used modules for creating GUI applications in Python as it is simple and easy to work with. You don’t need to worry about the installation of the Tkinter module separately as it comes with Python already. It gives an object-oriented interface to the Tk GUI toolkit. Some other Python Libraries available for creating our own GUI applications are: Kivy, Python Qt, wxPython. Among all Tkinter is most widely used. In summary, Tkinter is a useful tool for creating a wide variety of graphical user interfaces, including windows, dialog boxes, and custom widgets. It is particularly well-suited for building desktop applications and adding a GUI to command-line programs.

Why the world needs less AI and better programming languages. Decades ago, we believed that robots and computers would take over all the boring jobs and drudgery, leaving humans to a life of leisure. This hasn't happened. Instead, humans are still doing boring jobs, and even worse, AI researchers have built technology that is creative, self-aware, and emotional—doing the tasks humans were supposed to enjoy. How did we get here? In Moral Codes, Alan Blackwell argues that there is a fundamental flaw in the research agenda of AI. What humanity needs, Blackwell argues, is better ways to tell computers what we want them to do, with new and better programming languages: More Open Representations, Access to Learning, and Control Over Digital Expression, in other words, MORAL CODE. Blackwell draws on his deep experiences as a programming language designer—which he has been doing since 1983—to unpack fundamental principles of interaction design and explain their technical relationship to ideas of creativity and fairness. Taking aim at software that constrains our conversations with strict word counts or infantilizes human interaction with likes and emojis, Blackwell shows how to design software that is better—not more efficient or more profitable, but better for society and better for all people. Covering recent research and the latest smart tools, Blackwell offers rich design principles for a better kind of software—and a better kind of world. In an introductory class in programming, students learn to code. They will be taught the syntax and keywords of some programming language notation, perhaps Python or Java, and will learn how to translate an algorithm into the conventional idioms of that particular programming language. Introductions to Machine Learning are not yet quite as familiar or popular as learn-­to-­code initiatives, but they are equally accessible to children—­I have a friend who teaches Machine Learning methods to eight-­year-­olds in an after-­school club.
