IPython Interactive Computing and Visualization Cookbook

Left arrow icon Right arrow icon

Key benefits

  • • Leverage the Jupyter Notebook for interactive data science and visualization
  • • Become an expert in high-performance computing and visualization for data analysis and scientific modeling
  • • A comprehensive coverage of scientific computing through many hands-on, example-driven recipes with detailed, step-by-step explanations

Description

Python is one of the leading open source platforms for data science and numerical computing. IPython and the associated Jupyter Notebook offer efficient interfaces to Python for data analysis and interactive visualization, and they constitute an ideal gateway to the platform. IPython Interactive Computing and Visualization Cookbook, Second Edition contains many ready-to-use, focused recipes for high-performance scientific computing and data analysis, from the latest IPython/Jupyter features to the most advanced tricks, to help you write better and faster code. You will apply these state-of-the-art methods to various real-world examples, illustrating topics in applied mathematics, scientific modeling, and machine learning. The first part of the book covers programming techniques: code quality and reproducibility, code optimization, high-performance computing through just-in-time compilation, parallel computing, and graphics card programming. The second part tackles data science, statistics, machine learning, signal and image processing, dynamical systems, and pure and applied mathematics.

Who is this book for?

This book is intended for anyone interested in numerical computing and data science: students, researchers, teachers, engineers, analysts, and hobbyists. A basic knowledge of Python/NumPy is recommended. Some skills in mathematics will help you understand the theory behind the computational methods.

What you will learn

  • • Master all features of the Jupyter Notebook
  • • Code better: write high-quality, readable, and well-tested programs; profile and optimize your code; and conduct reproducible interactive computing experiments
  • • Visualize data and create interactive plots in the Jupyter Notebook
  • • Write blazingly fast Python programs with NumPy, ctypes, Numba, Cython, OpenMP, GPU programming (CUDA), parallel IPython, Dask, and more
  • • Analyze data with Bayesian or frequentist statistics (Pandas, PyMC, and R), and learn from actual data through machine learning (scikit-learn)
  • • Gain valuable insights into signals, images, and sounds with SciPy, scikit-image, and OpenCV
  • • Simulate deterministic and stochastic dynamical systems in Python
  • • Familiarize yourself with math in Python using SymPy and Sage: algebra, analysis, logic, graphs, geometry, and probability theory

Le livre va bien au-delà d'IPython et semble en fait s'adresser au scientifique ayant déjà une pratique de python en lui proposant de mettre à jour ses connaissances sur l'écosystème de Python gravitant en gros autour du calcul numérique.Dans l'absolu, le livre est un peu touche à tout, balayant un nombre impressionnant de librairies en 500 pages, là où une seule pourrait faire l'objet d'un livre séparé. D'ordinaire, ce genre d'inventaire à la Prévert a le don d'agacer pour qui n'aime pas le survol.Or ici, un miracle se produit. Peut-être suis-je exactement le lecteur ciblé par l'auteur, mais quasiment chaque section de chaque chapitre fait mouche. Bien qu'utilisant python régulièrement pour mon travail, je m'aperçois à quel point je reste prisonnier des outils que je connais, et combien je suis ignorant de l'incroyable richesse de l'écosystème scientifique et computationel de python.Je n'ai tout simplement jamais mis la main sur un livre contenant une telle densité informative. Bien sûr, aucun sujet n'est réellement approfondi, mais le plus souvent, les librairies ne sont pas simplement mentionnées, mais utilisées dans un exemple informatif qui met le pied à l'étrier.Chapeau à l'auteur pour ses connaissances et sa maîtrise qui transpirent à chaque page de ce livre impressionnant.

The "Cookbook" update adds new content about Jupyter and Python 3.6. It provides a comprehensive, yet understandable, reference to Jupyter, IPython, and frequently used Python data science libraries. The code examples clearly demonstrate how to use popular Python libraries with IPython and Jupyter. Each section contains links to additional resources and provides the reader a wealth of high-quality tips and use cases.I highly recommend the "Cookbook" to people getting started with IPython/Jupyter. The examples and content will also delight current users of IPython/Jupyter. An industry standard, the "Cookbook", is now even better with additional content, updates, and color available for visualizations.

What happens if an Early Access Course is cancelled? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

Projects are rarely cancelled, but sometimes it's unavoidable. If an Early Access course is cancelled or excessively delayed, you can exchange your purchase for another course. For further details, please contact us here.

Where can I send feedback about an Early Access title? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

If you have any feedback about the product you're reading, or Early Access in general, then please fill out a contact form here and we'll make sure the feedback gets to the right team. 

Can I download the code files for Early Access titles? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

We try to ensure that all books in Early Access have code available to use, download, and fork on GitHub. This helps us be more agile in the development of the book, and helps keep the often changing code base of new versions and new technologies as up to date as possible. Unfortunately, however, there will be rare cases when it is not possible for us to have downloadable code samples available until publication.

When we publish the book, the code files will also be available to download from the Packt website.

How accurate is the publication date? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

The publication date is as accurate as we can be at any point in the project. Unfortunately, delays can happen. Often those delays are out of our control, such as changes to the technology code base or delays in the tech release. We do our best to give you an accurate estimate of the publication date at any given time, and as more chapters are delivered, the more accurate the delivery date will become.

How will I know when new chapters are ready? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

We'll let you know every time there has been an update to a course that you've bought in Early Access. You'll get an email to let you know there has been a new chapter, or a change to a previous chapter. The new chapters are automatically added to your account, so you can also check back there any time you're ready and download or read them online.

I am a Packt subscriber, do I get Early Access? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

Yes, all Early Access content is fully available through your subscription. You will need to have a paid for or active trial subscription in order to access all titles.

How is Early Access delivered? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

Early Access is currently only available as a PDF or through our online reader. As we make changes or add new chapters, the files in your Packt account will be updated so you can download them again or view them online immediately.

How do I buy Early Access content? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

Early Access is a way of us getting our content to you quicker, but the method of buying the Early Access course is still the same. Just find the course you want to buy, go through the check-out steps, and you’ll get a confirmation email from us with information and a link to the relevant Early Access courses.

What is Early Access? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

Keeping up to date with the latest technology is difficult; new versions, new frameworks, new techniques. This feature gives you a head-start to our content, as it's being created. With Early Access you'll receive each chapter as it's written, and get regular updates throughout the product's development, as well as the final course as soon as it's ready.We created Early Access as a means of giving you the information you need, as soon as it's available. As we go through the process of developing a course, 99% of it can be ready but we can't publish until that last 1% falls in to place. Early Access helps to unlock the potential of our content early, to help you start your learning when you need it most. You not only get access to every chapter as it's delivered, edited, and updated, but you'll also get the finalized, DRM-free product to download in any format you want when it's published. As a member of Packt, you'll also be eligible for our exclusive offers, including a free course every day, and discounts on new and popular titles.
