Introducing Elixir

Getting Started in Functional Programming
Introducing Elixir Image
Elixir is an excellent language if you want to learn about functional programming, and with this hands-on introduction, you'll discover just how powerful and fun Elixir can be. This language combines the robust functional programming of Erlang with a syntax similar to Ruby, and includes powerful features for metaprogramming.This book shows you how to write simple Elixir programs by teaching one skill at a time. Once you pick up pattern matching, process-oriented programming, and other concepts, you'll understand why Elixir makes it easier to build concurrent and resilient programs that scale up and down with ease.Get comfortable with IEx, Elixir's command line interfaceDiscover atoms, pattern matching, and guards: the foundations of your program stru...

Client-Server Web Apps with JavaScript and Java Image
As a Java programmer, how can you tackle the disruptive client-server approach to web development? With this comprehensive guide, you'll learn how today's client-side technologies and web APIs work with various Java tools. Author Casimir Saternos provides the big picture of client-server development, and then takes you through many practical client-server architectures. You'll work with hands-on projects in several chapters to get a feel for the topics discussed.User habits, technologies, and development methods have drastically altered web app design in recent years. But the Web itself hasn't changed. This book shows you how to build apps that conform to the web's underlying architecture.Learn the advantages of using separate client and server tiers...

Office 2003 XML

Office 2003 XML Image
In Microsoft's Office 2003, users experience the merger of the power of the classic Office suite of applications with the fluidity of data exchange inherent in XML.

Developers will learn how they can connect Microsoft Office to others systems, while power users will learn to create and analyze XML documents using familiar Office tools.The book...

Learning Rails

Learning Rails Image
While most books written about Rails cater to programmers looking for information on data structures, Learning Rails targets web developers whose programming experience is tied directly to the Web. Rather than begin with the inner layers of a Rails web application--the models and controllers--this unique book approaches Rails development from the outer layer: the application interface. You'll learn how to create something visible with Rails before reaching the more difficult database models and controller code. With Learning Rails, you can start from the foundations of web design you already know, and then move more deeply into Ruby, objects, and database structures. This book will help you:Present web content by building an application with a basic ...

Introducing Erlang

Getting Started in Functional Programming
Introducing Erlang Image
If you're new to Erlang, its functional style can seem difficult, but with help from this hands-on introduction, you'll scale the learning curve and discover how enjoyable, powerful, and fun this language can be.Author Simon St. Laurent shows you how to write simple Erlang programs by teaching you one basic skill at a time. You'll learn about pattern matching, recursion, message passing, process-oriented programming, and establishing pathways for data rather than telling it where to go. By the end of your journey, you'll understand why Erlang is ideal for concurrency and resilience.Get cozy with Erlang's shell, its command line interface Become familiar with Erlang's basic structures by working with numbers Discover atoms, pattern matching, and guard...
