Master language models through mathematics, illustrations, and code―and build your own from scratch!

Everything you really need to know in Machine Learning in a hundred pages.

With more than 1200 microcontrollers, STM32 is probably the most complete ARM Cortex-M platform on the market. This book aims to be the most complete guide around introducing the reader to this exciting MCU portfolio from ST Microelectronics and its official CubeHAL and STM32CubeIDE development environment.

This book supplements the DM for CS Specialization at Coursera and contains many interactive puzzles, autograded quizzes, and code snippets. They are intended to help you to discover important ideas in discrete mathematics on your own. By purchasing the book, you will get all updates of the book free of charge when they are released.

It seems like there's never been as much widespread desire before to learn JS. But with a million blogs, books, and videos out there, just where do you start? Get Started prepares you for the journey ahead, first surveying the language then detailing how the rest of the You Don't Know JS Yet book series guides you to knowing JS more deeply.

Learn how real databases work by following this practical guide to building your own in a programming language of your choice.Build a language from scratch- Create an interpreter that can parse, type check and run SQL queries. Start with running simple queries and build up to more complex ones.Learn SQL (the fun way) - Gain a deeper understanding of SQL. Cover the order of execution of queries, how SQL uses ternary logic and the techniques that databases use to join and group data efficiently. Compare your implementation with databases such as PostgreSQL, MySQL, SQLite and DuckDB.Improve as a programmer- The perfect project to practice how to structure and refactor code as you grow the feature set of your database server. The 200+ included test cases provide a safety net for refactoring your code, giving you freedom to experiment. Learn computer science topics including creating a recursive descent parser, building a type checker and implementing iterators.

This book aims to be the comprehensive manual for type-level programming. It's about getting you from here to there---from a competent Haskell programmer to one who convinces the compiler to do their work for them.

Learn databases from the bottom up by coding your own, in small steps, and with simple Go code (language agnostic).Atomicity & durability. A DB is more than files!Persist data with fsync.Crash recovery.KV store based on B-tree.Disk-based data structures.Space management with a free list.Relational DB on top of KV.Learn how tables and indexes are related to B-trees.SQL-like query language; parser & interpreter.Concurrent transactions with copy-on-write data structures.

This series of test-driven small coding puzzles lets you code a database from scratch (no dependencies).We'll cover KV storage engines, LSM-Tree indexes, SQL, concurrent transactions, ACID, etc.

Build a compiler to learn how programming languages work. Use low-level assembly to learn how computers work. Walks through a minimal yet complete compiler. Compiles a static-typed language into x64 ELF executables.Simple interpreter.Bytecode compiler.x64 assembly & instruction encoding.Translate bytecode to x64 code.Generate binary executables.

This book is for informed Linux enthusiasts—those who already know their way around Linux but are curious about how its internals fit together under the control of the Linux kernel. It's ideal for readers who want to understand what’s happening “under the hood” and interested to explore kernel programming through loadable kernel modules. If you've ever wondered how Linux works under the hood, this book is for you.

A concise, illustrated guide to algorithms and data structures, perfect for coding interviews, classes, or self-study. Covers key concepts, from fundamentals to graphs, trees, sorting, and search techniques.

The foundation of all programs is organization of variables/functions into nested scopes. Yet, many never contemplate how & why these decisions are made and the impacts on code maintainability. Scope & Closures examines lexical scope, builds on its principles for the power of closure, and digs into the module pattern for better program structure.
