This book originated as approximately 30 pages of notes intended for students in the author's introductory programming class at Mount St. Mary's University. Recognizing that most of these students had no prior programming experience, the author tailored his approach accordingly. He consciously omits many technical details and occasionally oversimplifies concepts. While some of these deta

This open access book offers an initial introduction to programming for scientific and computational applications using the Python programming language. The presentation style is compact and example-based, making it suitable for students and researchers with little or no prior experience in programming. The book uses relevant examples from mathematics and the natural sciences to present

Observability is critical for building, changing, and understanding the software that powers complex modern systems. Teams that adopt observability are much better equipped to ship code swiftly and confidently, identify outliers and aberrant behaviors, and understand the experience of each and every user. This practical book explains the value of observable systems and shows you how to p

How do you detangle a monolithic system and migrate it to a microservice architecture? How do you do it while maintaining business-as-usual?

If you've ever written a non-trivial JavaScript application, you know that creating a code base that's easy to maintain and scales well over time is no small feat. The complexity only grows as the project becomes larger. While it's impossible to plan for every change that could possibly happen over the life of a project, you can help future-proof your front-end architecture by designing
