Introduction to Recursive Programming

Introduction to Recursive Programming

Recursion is one of the most fundamental concepts in computer science and a key programming technique that allows computations to be carried out repeatedly. Despite the importance of recursion for algorithm design most programming books do not cover the topic in detail despite the fact that numerous computer programming professors and researchers in the field of computer science education agree that recursion is difficult for novice students. Introduction to Recursive Programming provides a detailed and comprehensive introduction to recursion. This text will serve as a useful guide for anyone who wants to learn how to think and program recursively by analyzing a wide variety of computational problems of diverse difficulty. It contains specific chapters on the most common types of recursion (linear tail and multiple) as well as on algorithm design paradigms in which recursion is prevalent (divide and conquer and backtracking). Therefore it can be used in introductory programming courses and in more advanced classes on algorithm design. The book also covers lower-level topics related to iteration and program execution and includes a rich chapter on the theoretical analysis of the computational cost of recursive programs offering readers the possibility to learn some basic mathematics along the way. It also incorporates several elements aimed at helping students master the material. First it contains a larger collection of simple problems in order to provide a solid foundation of the core concepts before diving into more complex material. In addition one of the book's main assets is the use of a step-by-step methodology together with specially designed diagrams for guiding and illustrating the process of developing recursive algorithms. Furthermore the book covers combinatorial problems and mutual recursion. These topics can broaden students' understanding of recursion by forcing them to apply the learned concepts differently or in a more sophisticated manner. The code examples have been written in Python 3 but should be straightforward to understand for students with experience in other programming languages. Finally worked out solutions to over 120 end-of-chapter exercises are available for instructors.

Introduction to Electromagnetism From Coulomb to Maxwell

Introduction to Electromagnetism From Coulomb to Maxwell

This edition aims to expand on the first edition and take the reader through to the wave equation on coaxial cable and free-space by using Maxwell’s equations. The new chapters include time varying signals and fundamentals of Maxwell's equations. This book will introduce and discuss electromagnetic fields in an accessible manner. The author explains electroconductive fields and develops ideas relating to signal propagation and develops Maxwell’s equations and applies them to propagation in a planar optical waveguide. The first of the new chapters introduces the idea of a travelling wave by considering the variation of voltage along a coaxial line. This concept will be used in the second new chapter which solves Maxwell’s equations in free-space and then applies them to a planar optical waveguide in the third new chapter. As this is an area that most students find difficult it links back to the earlier chapters to aid understanding. This book is intended for first- and second-year electrical and electronic undergraduates and can also be used for undergraduates in mechanical engineering computing and physics. The book includes examples and homework problems. Introduces and examines electrostatic fields in an accessible manner Explains electroconductive fields Develops ideas relating to signal propagation Examines Maxwell’s equations and relates them to propagation in a planar optical waveguide Martin Sibley recently retired after 33 years of teaching at the University of Huddersfield. He has a PhD from Huddersfield Polytechnic in Preamplifier Design for Optical Receivers. He started his career in academia in 1986 having spent 3 years as a postgraduate student and then 2 years as a British Telecom-funded research fellow. His research work had a strong bias to the practical implementation of research and he taught electromagnetism and communications at all levels since 1986. Dr. Sibley finished his academic career as a Reader in Communications School of Computing and Engineering University of Huddersfield. He has authored five books and published over 80 research papers. | Introduction to Electromagnetism From Coulomb to Maxwell

Living in an Age of Mistrust An Interdisciplinary Study of Declining Trust and How to Get it Back

Living in an Age of Mistrust An Interdisciplinary Study of Declining Trust and How to Get it Back

Trust is a concept familiar to most. Whether we are cognizant of it or not we experience it on a daily basis. Yet trust is quickly eroding in civic and political life. Americans’ trust in their government has reached all-time lows. The political and social consequences of this decline in trust are profound. What are the foundations of trust? What explains its apparent decline in society? Is there a way forward for rebuilding trust in our leaders and institutions? How should we study the role of trust across a diverse range of policy issues and problems? Given its complexity trust as an object of study cannot be claimed by any single discipline. Rather than vouch for an overarching theory of trust Living in an Age of Mistrust synthesizes existing perspectives across multiple disciplines to offer a truly comprehensive examination of this concept and a topic of research. Using an analytical framework that encompasses rational and cultural (or sociological) dimensions of trust the contributions found therein provide a wide range of policy issues both domestic and international to explore the apparent decline in trust its impact on social and political life and efforts to rebuild trust. | Living in an Age of Mistrust An Interdisciplinary Study of Declining Trust and How to Get it Back

Field Guide to Compelling Analytics

Field Guide to Compelling Analytics

Field Guide to Compelling Analytics is written for Analytics Professionals (APs) who want to increase their probability of success in implementing analytical solutions. In the past soft skills such as presentation and persuasive writing techniques have been the extent of teaching junior APs how to effectively communicate the value of analytical products. However there are other aspects to success such as trust and experience that may play a more important role in convincing fellow APs clients advisors and leadership groups that their analytic solutions will work. This book introduces the formula ‘Analytics + Trust + Communication + Experience > Convince Them’ to illustrate an AP’s ability to convince a stakeholder. The ‘Convince Me’ stakeholders might be an analytics team member team lead decision-maker or senior leader that are either internal or external to the AP’s organization. Whoever they are this formula represents a concise digestible and above all practical means to increase the likelihood that you will be able to persuade them of the value of your analytical product. Features Includes insight questions to support class discussion Written in broadly non-mathematical terms designed to be accessible to any level of student or practicing AP to read understand and implement the concepts Each section introduces the ideas through real-life case studies
