Functional Python Programming
Python isn't all about object-oriented programming. Discover a valuable way of thinking about code design through a function-first approach – and learn when you need to use it. Now with detailed exercises at the end of every chapter!Purchase of the print or Kindle book includes a free eBook in PDF format.Key FeaturesLearn how, when, and why to adopt functional elements in your projectsExplore the Python modules essential to functional programming, like itertools and functoolsRevised to cover new features of Python 3.10, exercises at the end of every chapter, and moreBook DescriptionNot enough developers understand the benefits of functional programming, or even what it is. Author Steven Lott demystifies the approach, teaching you how to improve the way you code in Python and make gains in memory use and performance. Starting from the fundamentals, this book shows you how to apply functional thinking and techniques in a range of scenarios, with examples centered around data cleaning and exploratory data analysis. You'll learn how to use generator expressions, list comprehensions, and decorators to your advantage. You don't have to abandon object-oriented design completely, though – you'll also see how Python's native object-orientation is used in conjunction with functional programming techniques. By the end of this book, you'll be well versed in the essential functional programming features of Python, and understand why and when functional thinking helps. You'll also have all the tools you need to pursue any additional functional topics that are not part of the Python language.What you will learnUse Python's libraries to avoid the complexities of state-changing classesLeverage built-in higher-order functions to avoid rewriting common algorithmsWrite generator functions to create lazy processingDesign and implement decorators for functional compositionMake use of Python type annotations to describe parameters and results of functionsApply functional programming to concurrency and web servicesExplore the PyMonad library for stateful simulationsWho this book is forThe functional paradigm is very useful for programmers working in data science, but any Python developer who wants to create more reliable, succinct, and expressive code will have much to learn from this book.No prior knowledge of functional programming is required to get started, though Python programming knowledge is assumed. A running Python environment is essential.

Learn Robotics Programming
Develop an extendable smart robot capable of performing a complex series of actions with Python and Raspberry PiKey FeaturesGet up to speed with the fundamentals of robotic programming and build intelligent robotsLearn how to program a voice agent to control and interact with your robot's behaviorEnable your robot to see its environment and avoid barriers using sensorsBook DescriptionWe live in an age where the most complex or repetitive tasks are automated. Smart robots have the potential to revolutionize how we perform all kinds of tasks with high accuracy and efficiency. With this second edition of Learn Robotics Programming, you'll see how a combination of the Raspberry Pi and Python can be a great starting point for robot programming. The book starts by introducing you to the basic structure of a robot and shows you how to design, build, and program it. As you make your way through the book, you'll add different outputs and sensors, learn robot building skills, and write code to add autonomous behavior using sensors and a camera. You'll also be able to upgrade your robot with Wi-Fi connectivity to control it using a smartphone. Finally, you'll understand how you can apply the skills that you've learned to visualize, lay out, build, and code your future robot building projects. By the end of this book, you'll have built an interesting robot that can perform basic artificial intelligence operations and be well versed in programming robots and creating complex robotics projects using what you've learned.What you will learnLeverage the features of the Raspberry Pi OSDiscover how to configure a Raspberry Pi to build an AI-enabled robotInterface motors and sensors with a Raspberry PiCode your robot to develop engaging and intelligent robot behaviorExplore AI behavior such as speech recognition and visual processingFind out how you can control AI robots with a mobile phone over Wi-FiUnderstand how to choose the right parts and assemble your robotWho this book is forThis second edition of Learn Robotics Programming is for programmers, developers, and robotics enthusiasts who want to develop a fully functional robot and leverage AI to build interactive robots. Basic knowledge of the Python programming language will help you understand the concepts covered in this robot programming book more effectively.
