Beginning Android 3D Game Development is a unique, examples-driven book for today's Android and game app developers who want to learn how to build 3D game apps that run on the latest Android 5.0 (KitKat) platform using Java and OpenGL ES.
Android game app development continues to be one of the hottest...
Doing Math with Python shows you how to use Python to delve into high school–level math topics like statistics, geometry, probability, and calculus. You’ll start with simple projects, like a factoring program and a quadratic-equation solver, and then create more complex projects once you’ve gotten the hang of...
This guide provides clear, practical explanations of curves and surfaces with the minimum of esoteric mathematical notation, making it far more accessible to work along with the material for a better understanding of the concepts.
"...very well written...very recommendable for students, researchers as well as practitioners interested in signal processing and communications." - Stefan Reh, Carnegie Mellon University
"...it is well written, providing the intended readership with tools and methods to study and solve problems concerning random...
Guesstimation is a book that unlocks the power of approximation--it's popular mathematics rounded to the nearest power of ten! The ability to estimate is an important skill in daily life. More and more leading businesses today use estimation questions in interviews to test applicants' abilities to think on their feet....
Barnett, Ziegler, Byleen, and Sobecki's College Algebra with Trigonometry text is designed to be user friendly and to maximize student comprehension by emphasizing computational skills, ideas, and problem solving as opposed to mathematical theory. The large number of pedagogical devices employed in this text will guide a student through...
Ubiquitous in daily life, electric motors/generators are used in a wide variety of applications, from home appliances to internal combustion engines to hybrid electric cars. They produce electric energy in all electric power plants as generators and motion control that is necessary in all industries to increase productivity, save...
"The book under review is the first one from a series of three volumes that provides a compelling framework for a more comprehensive understanding of both formal and practical concerns of software engineering. The major feature distinguishing these textbooks from other current ones is the natural manner in which...
The purpose of this book is to provide a practical compendium of algorithms for use in applications. Unlike most works on algorithms, this book is not a textbook: you will not find implementation details left as an exercise for the reader, nor will you find highly theoretical discussions of algorithms with small snippets of code...
clear exposition and the consistency of presentation make learning arithmetic accessible for all. Key concepts are presented in section objectives and further defined within the context of How and Why; providing a strong foundation for learning. The predominant emphasis of the book focuses on problem-solving, skills, concepts, and...
"The book presents a systematic theory … oriented primarily to senior undergraduate students, as well as to graduate students and researchers in the area of fuzzy optimization and related topics. Special attention is devoted to various approaches to fuzzy linear and quadratic programming...
