DOWNLOAD EBOOKUsing a simple computational task (term frequency) to illustrate different programming styles, Exercises in Programming Style helps readers understand the various ways of writing programs and designing systems. It is designed to be used in conjunction with code provided on an online repository. The book complements and explains the raw code in a way that is accessible to anyone who regularly practices the art of programming. The book can also be used in advanced programming courses in computer science and software engineering programs. The book contains 33 different styles for writing the term frequency task. The styles are grouped into nine categories: historical, basic, function composition, objects and object interactions, reflection and metaprogramming, adversity, data-centric, concurrency, and interactivity. The author verbalizes the constraints in each style and explains the example programs. Each chapter first presents the constraints of the style, next shows an example program, and then gives a detailed explanation of the code. Most chapters also have sections focusing on the use of the style in systems design as well as sections describing the historical context in which the programming style emerged.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK"Van Cleef & Arpels and Gallimard present "An exercise in style"; a literary and poetic promenade through the Maison's vocabulary. Twenty five words defining the identity of Van Cleef & Arpels have thus been gathered and illustrated by friends of the Maison, leading figures of the world of culture and the arts, such as Alber Elbaz, Valérie Belin, Camille Laurens, Alain Passard and others. Each word is an experience, sparking surprise, wonder or contemplation. We invite you to discover, for example, the expression of luck by Laurent Derobert, danse by Benjamin Millepied, transmission by David Caméo, high jewelry according to Patrick Jouin and Sanjit Manku or creation as defined by Jean de Loisy. Each chapter (savoir faire, feminity, Place Vendôme, enchantment, style) is opened by a poetic "theater" in laser cut paper. The book captures a poetic and literary happenstance, tell a story about beauty, about poetry, unleashing creation and unbridling the imaginary realm's might"--Publisher's description.
