Learn to Code by Solving Problems is a practical introduction to programming using Python. It uses coding-competition challenges to teach you the mechanics of coding and how to think like a savvy programmer. Computers are capable of solving almost any problem when given the right instructions. That’s where programming comes in. This beginner’s book will have you writing Python programs right away. You’ll solve interesting problems drawn from real coding competitions and build your programming skills as you go. Every chapter presents problems from coding challenge websites, where online judges test your solutions and provide targeted feedback. As you practice using core Python features, functions, and techniques, you’ll develop a clear understanding of data structures, algorithms, and other programming basics. Bonus exercises invite you to explore new concepts on your own, and multiple-choice questions encourage you to think about how each piece of code works. You’ll learn how to: Run Python code, work with strings, and use variables Write programs that make decisions Make code more efficient with while and for loops Use Python sets, lists, and dictionaries to organize, sort, and search data Design programs using functions and top-down design Create complete-search algorithms and use Big O notation to design more efficient code By the end of the book, you’ll not only be proficient in Python, but you’ll also understand how to think through problems and tackle them with code. Programming languages come and go, but this book gives you the lasting foundation you need to start thinking like a programmer.

""Simple Coding: Unleashing the Power of Programming for Non-Engineers"" challenges the notion that coding is exclusively for tech experts, opening the door to a world where anyone can harness the potential of programming. This accessible guide focuses on demystifying programming concepts, introducing user-friendly coding tools, and exploring practical applications for everyday life. By emphasizing hands-on learning and real-world applications, the book demonstrates how coding can enhance problem-solving abilities, automate routine tasks, and even lead to the creation of simple yet useful applications. The book progresses logically, starting with programming fundamentals and moving on to explore beginner-friendly languages like Python and Scratch. It introduces readers to visual programming environments and no-code platforms, showcasing how these tools can bridge the gap between traditional coding and intuitive problem-solving. What sets this book apart is its focus on accessibility and practicality, emphasizing coding as a tool for solving everyday problems rather than delving into complex theoretical concepts. Throughout the journey, ""Simple Coding"" incorporates interactive elements and provides numerous examples of how readers can apply their new skills, from automating work tasks to creating simple games or personal budget trackers. By the end, readers will have gained not just knowledge, but the confidence to explore the world of programming further, empowering non-engineers to harness the power of code in their daily lives.

Deep learning is often viewed as the exclusive domain of math PhDs and big tech companies. But as this hands-on guide demonstrates, programmers comfortable with Python can achieve impressive results in deep learning with little math background, small amounts of data, and minimal code. How? With fastai, the first library to provide a consistent interface to the most frequently used deep learning applications. Authors Jeremy Howard and Sylvain Gugger, the creators of fastai, show you how to train a model on a wide range of tasks using fastai and PyTorch. You’ll also dive progressively further into deep learning theory to gain a complete understanding of the algorithms behind the scenes. Train models in computer vision, natural language processing, tabular data, and collaborative filtering Learn the latest deep learning techniques that matter most in practice Improve accuracy, speed, and reliability by understanding how deep learning models work Discover how to turn your models into web applications Implement deep learning algorithms from scratch Consider the ethical implications of your work Gain insight from the foreword by PyTorch cofounder, Soumith Chintala
