Starting with Python is easy, contributing to its popularity. However, its unique strengths and expressivity can be challenging to grasp initially, and there are hidden pitfalls that can lead to errors. This guide helps you leverage Python's full potential to write robust, efficient, and maintainable code. Following a scenario-driven style similar to Scott Meyers's Effective C++, the author presents 53 best practices, tips, and realistic examples from expert programmers. Through these examples, you’ll discover lesser-known quirks and idioms that significantly influence code behavior and performance. You'll learn to choose the most effective methods for various tasks and write clearer, more maintainable code. Drawing on extensive knowledge of Python's capabilities, the author provides practical advice applicable to both Python 3.x and 2.x. Topics covered include algorithms, objects, concurrency, collaboration, built-in modules, and production techniques. Each section features actionable guidelines organized into items, with well-crafted advice supported by technical arguments and illustrative examples. By using this guide, you can enhance your Python coding skills through a deep understanding of the technical reasons behind effective practices, rather than merely following rules or mimicking complex idioms.

Presents a collection of tips for programmers on how to use the features of C++11 and C++14 effectively, covering such topics as functions, rvalue references, and lambda expressions.

An io9 Can't Miss Science Fiction and Fantasy title in March 2014. Martin Banks is just a normal guy who has made an abnormal discovery: he can manipulate reality, thanks to reality being nothing more than a computer program. With every use of this ability, though, Martin finds his little "tweaks" have not escaped notice. Rather than face prosecution, he decides instead to travel back in time to the Middle Ages and pose as a wizard. What could possibly go wrong? An American hacker in King Arthur's court, Martin must now train to become a full-fledged master of his powers, discover the truth behind the ancient wizard Merlin...and not, y'know, die or anything.

Providing information on C++'s Standard Template Library, this book shows you how to use it. It includes: advice on choosing among standard STL containers, nonstandard STL containers, and non-STL containers; techniques to maximize the efficiency of the STL and the programs that use it; insights into the behavior of iterators; and more. schovat popis

Presents 35 ways to improve your programs and designs. This work explains how to write software that is more effective. It contains methods for improving program efficiency, including incisive examinations of the time/space costs of C++ language features; descriptions of advanced techniques used by C++ experts; and more.

The Barnes & Noble ReviewSince early in the 90s, working C++ programmers have relied on Scott Meyers s Effective C++ to dramatically improve their skills. But the state-of-the-art has moved forward dramatically since Meyers last updated this book in 1997. (For instance, there s now STL. Design patterns. Even new functionality being added through TR1 and Boost.) So Meyers has done a top-to-bottom rewrite, identifying the 55 most valuable techniques you need now to be exceptionally effective with C++. Over half of this edition s content is new. Templates broadly impact C++ development, and you ll find them everywhere. There s extensive coverage of multithreaded systems. There s an entirely new chapter on resource management. You ll find substantial new coverage of exceptions. Much is gained, but nothing s lost: You ll find the same depth of practical insight that first made Effective C++ a classic all those years ago.
