 Algorithms and Programming: Problems and Solutions (Modern Birkhäuser Classics)Somebody once said that one may prove the correctness of an algorithm, but not of a program. One of the main goals of this book is to convince the reader that things are not so bad.
A well-known programmer, C.A.R. Hoare, said that the beauty of a program is not an additional benefit but a criterion that separates success from failure.... | | Algorithmic Adventures: From Knowledge to MagicThe public image of computer science does not reflect its true nature. The general public and especially high school students identify computer science with a computer driving license. They think that studying computer science is not a challenge, and that anybody can learn it. Computer science is not considered a scientific discipline but a... | | Introduction to Information Theory and Data Compression, Second EditionAn effective blend of carefully explained theory and practical applications, this text imparts the fundamentals of both information theory and data compression. Although the two topics are related, this unique text allows either topic to be presented independently, and it was specifically designed so that the data compression section requires... |
Understanding Cryptography: A Textbook for Students and PractitionersCryptography is now ubiquitous – moving beyond the traditional environments, such as government communications and banking systems, we see cryptographic techniques realized in Web browsers, e-mail programs, cell phones, manufacturing systems, embedded software, smart buildings, cars, and even medical implants. Today's designers need a... | | The Quick Python Book
The Quick Python Book, Second Edition, is a clear, concise introduction to Python 3, aimed at programmers new to Python. This updated edition includes all the changes in Python 3, itself a significant shift from earlier versions of Python.
The book begins with basic but useful programs that teach the core features of syntax,... | | Projects in Computing and Information Systems: A Student's GuideProjects are a major component of virtually all undergraduate and postgraduate computing and information science courses within universities. They require students to draw on a number of separate but highly important skills; surveying literature, report writing, developing and documenting software, presentational skills, time management, ... |
