Rebel Code
The open source saga has many fascinating chapters. It is partly the story of Linus Torvalds, the master hacker who would become chief architect of the Linux operating system. It is also the story of thousands of devoted programmers around the world who spontaneously worked in tandem to complete the race to shape Linux into the ultimate killer app. Rebel Code traces the remarkable roots of this unplanned revolution. It echoes the twists and turns of Linux's improbable development, as it grew through an almost biological process of accretion and finally took its place at the heart of a jigsaw puzzle that would become the centrepiece of open source. With unprecedented access to the principal players, Moody has written a powerful tale of individual innovation versus big business. Rebel Code provides a from-the-trenches perspective and looks ahead to how open source is challenging long-held conceptions of technology, commerce, and culture.

Switching Codes
Half a century into the digital era, the profound impact of information technology on intellectual and cultural life is universally acknowledged but still poorly understood. The sheer complexity of the technology coupled with the rapid pace of change makes it increasingly difficult to establish common ground and to promote thoughtful discussion. Responding to this challenge, "Switching Codes" brings together leading American and European scholars, scientists, and artists - including Charles Bernstein, Ian Foster, Bruno Latour, Alan Liu, and Richard Powers - to consider how the precipitous growth of digital information and its associated technologies are transforming the ways we think and act. Employing a wide range of forms, including essay, dialogue, short fiction, and game design, this book aims to model and foster discussion between IT specialists, who typically have scant training in the humanities or traditional arts, and scholars and artists, who often understand little about the technologies that are so radically transforming their fields."Switching Codes" will be an indispensable volume for anyone seeking to understand the impact of digital technology on contemporary culture, including scientists, educators, policymakers, and artists alike.

Codes, Cryptology and Information Security
This book constitutes the proceedings of the Third International Conference on Codes, Cryptology and Information Security, C2SI 2019, held in Rabat, Morocco, in April 2019. The 19 regular papers presented together with 5 invited talks were carefully reviewed and selected from 90 submissions. The first aim of this conference is to pay homage to Said El Hajji for his valuable contribution in research, teaching and disseminating knowledge in numerical analysis, modeling and information security in Morocco, Africa, and worldwide. The second aim of the conference is to provide an international forum for researchers from academia and practitioners from industry from all over the world for discussion of all forms of cryptology, coding theory, and information security.

Captain Code
Becoming a coder is all fun and games! Everyone should learn to code. Much like drawing and sketching, playing an instrument, cooking, or taking pictures and shooting videos, coding is a creative endeavor, which means it's a way to actually create stuff, and creating stuff is incredibly rewarding and satisfying. Sure, it's fun to spend hours on your phone looking at what other people have created; but that's nothing compared to the joy and satisfaction of creating things that other people consume and use. Yep, coding is fun! And if that weren't enough, when you learn to code you develop all sorts of invaluable skills and traits beyond just coding. These include planning, problem solving, communication, logic, empathy, attention to detail, patience, resilience, persistence, and creativity. And it turns out that these skills (especially creativity and creative problem solving) are some of the most in-demand out there. So, coding will help your future career, too, regardless of what that career may be. But, where to start? Captain Code is a welcoming, engaging, and fun introduction to becoming a coder, designed for the young (ages 10-17) and young-at-heart. Experienced educators and coders Ben & Shmuel Forta will guide you using Python, one of the most popular programming languages in the world. You'll learn by creating games, yes, games, from simple projects to retro text-based adventures to complete graphical arcade style games. Captain Code is 400 glossy color pages of goodness packed with welcoming images, useful tips and tidbits, and engaging, readable text that focuses on doing while having fun. All code listings are in full-color and QR codes link to bonus content, downloads, challenge solutions, and more. Captain Code makes coding exciting and rewarding, as it prepares a new generation to take their next steps forward—in education, careers, or both. So, are you ready to unleash your coding superpower and become Captain Code?

Clean Code with C#
Enhance your programming skills through code reviews, TDD and BDD implementation, and API design to overcome code inefficiency, redundancy, and other issues arising from bad codeKey FeaturesWrite code that seamlessly integrates with other systems while maintaining well-defined software boundariesUnderstand how coding principles and standards elevate software qualityLearn how to avoid common errors while implementing concurrency or threadingPurchase of the print or Kindle book includes a free PDF eBookBook DescriptionTraditionally associated with Windows desktop applications and game development, C# has expanded into web, cloud, and mobile development. However, despite its extensive coding features, professionals often encounter issues with efficiency, scalability, and maintainability due to poor code. Clean Code in C# guides you in identifying and resolving these problems using coding best practices.This book starts by comparing good and bad code to emphasize the importance of coding standards, principles, and methodologies. It then covers code reviews, unit testing, and test-driven development, and addresses cross-cutting concerns. As you advance through the chapters, you’ll discover programming best practices for objects, data structures, exception handling, and other aspects of writing C# computer programs. You’ll also explore API design and code quality enhancement tools, while studying examples of poor coding practices to understand what to avoid.By the end of this clean code book, you’ll have the developed the skills needed to apply industry-approved coding practices to write clean, readable, extendable, and maintainable C# code.What you will learnMaster the art of writing evolvable and adaptable codeImplement the fail-pass-refactor methodology using a sample C# console applicationDevelop custom C# exceptions that provide meaningful informationIdentify low-quality C# code in need of refactoringImprove code performance using profiling and refactoring toolsCreate efficient and bug-free code using functional programming techniquesWrite cross-platform code using MAUIDevelop cloud-deployable microservices for versatile applicationsWho this book is forThis coding book is for proficient C# developers, team leads, senior software engineers, and software architects who want to improve the efficiency of their legacy systems.
