Manual de Trigonometria Aplicada


Book Description

O livro começa com uma misteriosa carta e apresenta-nos a história de um engenheiro que parece ter encontrado na trigonometria e na matemática em geral uma forma muito pessoal de se exprimir e de reflectir sobre a sua própria vida. Esta novela, que venceu em 2002 o Concurso Literário “Ecos da Memória”, começa com uma misteriosa carta e apresenta-nos a história de um engenheiro que parece ter encontrado na trigonometria e na matemática em geral uma forma muito pessoal de se exprimir e de refletir sobre a sua própria vida. A narração traça o seu percurso afetivo, o qual se revela afinal muito mais humano e mais sensível do que o título da obra poderia indiciar... Afinal, sempre ouvimos dizer que a matemática é uma linguagem universal, que pode servir afinal até para falar de emoções e sentimentos. Difícil de definir e de enquadrar nos géneros literários mais convencionais, o livro surpreende entre outros aspetos pela densidade psicológica da personagem principal. Esta inquietante narrativa junta de forma singular o género epistolar com um certo tipo de 'suspense' que normalmente se associa sobretudo à literatura policial. -----------------------------------------------O que disseram outros leitores:----------------------------------------------- "Eh pá! Cortaste-me o fôlego. A tua obra está absolutamente excepcional..." (Hugo R.) "Misto de gênero epistolar (...) expõe, pelo vigor da prosa inquieta, um criador para cuja trajetória vale ficar atento. As dúvidas e constatações do protagonista, um engenheiro, alojadas no curioso título da obra, nos remetem ao dilema da natureza humana, a luta entre a razão e a sensibilidade. Para triunfo da arte, entretanto, aqui, malgrado os esforços do personagem em suas referências matemáticas, a segunda leva vantagem. O que temos é um itinerário afetivo de ocorrências e percepções de um mundo particular que a cada linha o personagem busca construir e nele reencontrar-se. Ou, mais precisamente, a descoberta do universo através da linguagem de que nos fala Sartre em seu 'Diário de uma guerra estranha'." (Antônio Mariano Lima, poeta e escritor)

Think Julia


Book Description

If you’re just learning how to program, Julia is an excellent JIT-compiled, dynamically typed language with a clean syntax. This hands-on guide uses Julia 1.0 to walk you through programming one step at a time, beginning with basic programming concepts before moving on to more advanced capabilities, such as creating new types and multiple dispatch. Designed from the beginning for high performance, Julia is a general-purpose language ideal for not only numerical analysis and computational science but also web programming and scripting. Through exercises in each chapter, you’ll try out programming concepts as you learn them. Think Julia is perfect for students at the high school or college level as well as self-learners and professionals who need to learn programming basics. Start with the basics, including language syntax and semantics Get a clear definition of each programming concept Learn about values, variables, statements, functions, and data structures in a logical progression Discover how to work with files and databases Understand types, methods, and multiple dispatch Use debugging techniques to fix syntax, runtime, and semantic errors Explore interface design and data structures through case studies
