This book presents a set of lectures on Python programming for economics and finance. This is the first text in the series, which focuses on programming in Python. Python has experienced rapid adoption in the last decade and is now one of the most popular programming languages. Python is a general-purpose language used in almost all application domains such as: • communications; • web development; • CGI and graphical user interfaces; • game development; • resource planning; • multimedia, data science, security, etc., etc., etc. Meanwhile, Python is also very beginner-friendly and is found to be suitable for students learning programming and recommended to introduce computational methods to students in fields other than Computer Science. Python is also replacing familiar tools like Excel as an essential skill in the fields of finance and banking. One nice feature of Python is its elegant syntax — we’ll see many examples later on. Elegant code might sound superfluous but in fact it’s highly beneficial because it makes the syntax easy to read and easy to remember. Remembering how to read from files, sort dictionaries and other such routine tasks means that you don’t need to break your flow in order to hunt down correct syntax. Closely related to elegant syntax is an elegant design. Features like iterators, generators, decorators and list comprehensions make Python highly expressive, allowing you to get more done with less code. Namespaces improve productivity by cutting down on bugs and syntax errors.

Applying Artificial Intelligence (AI) to new fields has made AI and data science indispensable to researchers in a wide range of fields. The proliferation and successful deployment of AI algorithms are fuelling these changes, which can be seen in fields as disparate as healthcare and emerging Internet of Things (IoT) applications. Machine learning techniques, and AI more broadly, are expected to play an ever-increasing role in the modelling, simulation, and analysis of data from a wide range of fields by the interdisciplinary research community. Ideas and techniques from multidisciplinary research are being utilised to enhance AI; hence, the connection between the two fields is a two-way street at a crossroads. Algorithms for inference, sampling, and optimisation, as well as investigations into the efficacy of Deep Learning, frequently make use of methods and concepts from other fields of study. Cloud computing platforms may be used to develop and deploy several AI models with high computational power. The intersection between multiple fields, including math, science, and healthcare, is where the most significant theoretical and methodological problems of AI may be found. To gather, integrate, and synthesise the many results and viewpoints in the connected domains, refer to it as interdisciplinary research. In light of this, the theory, techniques, and applications of Machine Learning and AI, as well as how they are utilised across disciplinary boundaries, are the main areas of this research topic.

Pearson’s flagship title Compilers: Principles, Techniques and Tools, known to professors, students, and developers worldwide as the "Dragon Book," is available in a new edition to reflect the current state of compilation. This book provides the foundation for understanding the theory and practice of compilers. Revised and updated with new chapters on Programming Language Semantics and Undefined Behaviour Semantics, the title addresses modern issues in compiler design. However, the authors, recognizing that few readers will ever go on to construct a compiler, retain their focus on the broader set of problems faced in software design and software development. The reader should possess some “computer-science sophistication,” including at least a second course on programming, and courses in data structures and discrete mathematics. Knowledge of several different programming languages is useful.

Deep Learning is rapidly gaining momentum in the world of finance and trading. But for many professional traders, this sophisticated field has a reputation for being complex and difficult. This hands-on guide teaches you how to develop a deep learning trading model from scratch using Python, and it also helps you create and backtest trading algorithms based on Machine Learning and reinforcement learning. Sofien Kaabar—financial author, trading consultant, and institutional market strategist—introduces Deep Learning strategies that combine technical and quantitative analyses. By fusing Deep Learning concepts with technical analysis, this unique book presents outside-the-box ideas in the world of financial trading. This A-Z guide also includes a full introduction to technical analysis, evaluating machine learning algorithms, and algorithm optimization. Deep Learning is a slightly more complex and more detailed field than Machine Learning. Machine Learning and Deep Learning both fall under the umbrella of Data Science. As you will see, Deep Learning is mostly about neural networks, a highly sophisticated and powerful algorithm that has enjoyed a lot of coverage and hype, and for good reason: it is very powerful and able to catch highly complex nonlinear relationships between different variables. The book assumes you have basic background knowledge in both Python programming (professional Python users will find the code very straightforward) and financial trading. I take a clear and simple approach that focuses on the key concepts so that you understand the purpose of every idea.

Programmers love Go because it is lightweight, easy to work with, and easy to read. Go gives you the benefits of dynamically typed languages (speed of development) while keeping the upsides of strongly typed languages (security and performance). Go is a simple language, but programming in Go is about more than just mastering syntax. There's an art to using Go effectively. Squeeze out the full use of advanced networking and multi-core power for which Go was designed. Save precious coding hours with recipes that help you manage objects, collect garbage, and safely use memory. Tackle Unicode, concurrency, and serialization with ease. All the clean, reusable solutions you need for a wide variety of problems common to Go development. Outfitted with these recipes, your next apps will be more polished and more maintainable than ever. Start out by tackling time and see how the Go time packager provides types that will do most of the heavy lifting for you. Next, work on recipes tailored to the nuances of processing text, like normalizing strings to avoid bugs. From there, whip up some functions on-the-fly and store functions in variables and data structures. Ever wondered why Go seems to be peppered with error handling? Working through the next recipes, you'll discover the benefits, which include more robust code. In the section on HTTP, you'll learn tricks like running multiple HTTP servers on the same port and setting timeouts. With concurrency recipes, you'll limit the number of goroutines to improve performance, give your code awareness of timeouts, and decide when to keep your code sequential instead of making it concurrent. Throughout the book, you'll make Go sizzle following simple recipes and tweaking them to fit your own apps. Using tools like strong typing and concurrency primitives, build a Go codebase that stays maintainable at scale.

Covering a wide array of Python–related programming topics, including addressing language internals, database integration, network programming, and web services, you’ll be guided by sound development principles. Updated to reflect the latest in Python programming paradigms and several of the most crucial features found in Python 3, Beginning Python, Fourth Edition also covers advanced topics such as extending Python and packaging/distributing Python applications. Ten accompanying projects will ensure you can get your hands dirty in no time. In the Chapter 1, you learn how to take control of your computer by speaking a language it understands: Python. Nothing here is particularly difficult, so if you know the basic principles of how your computer works, you should be able to follow the examples and try them out yourself. I’ll go through the basics, starting with the excruciatingly simple, but because Python is such a powerful language, you’ll soon be able to do pretty advanced things. The Chapter 2 introduces a new concept: data structures. A data structure is a collection of data elements (such as numbers or characters, or even other data structures) that is structured in some way, such as by numbering the elements. For programmers, novice and otherwise, seeking a comprehensive introduction to the Python programming language.
