Practical Artificial Intelligence Programming With Java
Practical Artificial Intelligence Programming With Java
Fifth Edition (July 2020)
About the Book
This book covers a variety of topics dealing with Artificial Intelligence, Neural Networks and Deep Learning, Information Gathering, and two new chapters on the Semantic Web (and one previous chapter on the Semantic Web that has been heavily modified)
The book example code is dual licenced under the Apache 2 and GPL 3 licenses. You may want to look at the book example programs at the github repository for this book before purchasing this book.
This book (and all of my Leanpub books) are also available for free on my web site https://markwatson.com/books/ if you would like them for free.

C++20
Rainer GrimmC++20 is the next big C++ standard after C++11. As C++11 did it, C++20 changes the way we program modern C++. This change is, in particular, due to the big four of C++20: ranges, coroutines, concepts, and modules.
The book is almost daily updated. These incremental updates ease my interaction with the proofreaders.
