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

What is custom duty/charge?

Customs duty are charges levied on goods when they cross international borders. It is a tax that is imposed on imported goods. These duties are charged by special authorities and bodies created by local governments and are meant to protect local industries, economies, and businesses.

Do I have to pay customs charges for the print book order?

The orders shipped to the countries that are listed under EU27 will not bear custom charges. They are paid by Packt as part of the order.

List of EU27 countries: www.gov.uk/eu-eea:

A custom duty or localized taxes may be applicable on the shipment and would be charged by the recipient country outside of the EU27 which should be paid by the customer and these duties are not included in the shipping charges been charged on the order.

How do I know my custom duty charges?

The amount of duty payable varies greatly depending on the imported goods, the country of origin and several other factors like the total invoice amount or dimensions like weight, and other such criteria applicable in your country.

For example:

If you live in Mexico, and the declared value of your ordered items is over $ 50, for you to receive a package, you will have to pay additional import tax of 19% which will be $ 9.50 to the courier service.
Whereas if you live in Turkey, and the declared value of your ordered items is over € 22, for you to receive a package, you will have to pay additional import tax of 18% which will be € 3.96 to the courier service.

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.
