    - Build an Angular 2 application from scratch using TypeScript and the Angular command line interface. - Write code using the paradigm of reactive programming with RxJS and Observables. - Know how to Unit Test Angular 2 using Jasmine, Karma and the Angular Test Bed The first chapter in the course is a quickstart where you dive straight into writing your first Angular 2 application. We use the web editor plunker so you can get stuck in writing code ASAP. In this quickstart you'll get a 50,000 foot view of the major features of Angular 2. Then chapter by chapter we go much deeper into each of these features. I'll cover the theory for that feature, using plunker as much as possible so you can try out the code yourself in a browser. Then you'll practice what you've learnt with either an online quiz or a set of flash cards. You are going to learn all about:- - Typescript & ES6 Javascript. - Components & Binding - Directives - Dependancy Injection & Services - Angular Modules & Bootstrapping your Angular application. - SPAs & Routing - Angular CLI - Forms - Reactive Programming with RXJs - HTTP - Unit Testing The ideal student is an existing web developer, with some JavaScript knowledge that wants to add Angular 2 to their skill set. Or perhaps you are an existing Angular 1 developer who wants to level up to Angular 2. You do need to be comfortable with at least the ES5 version of JavaScript. We'll be using a UI framework called twitter bootstrap throughout the course but you still must know HTML and some CSS.

    As a professional C++ developer and former Harvard teaching fellow, I know what you need to know to be a great C++ programmer, and I know how to teach it, one step at a time. I know where people struggle, and why, and how to make it clear. I cover every step of the programming process, including:Getting the tools you need to program and how to use them*Basic language feature like variables, loops and functions*How to go from an idea to code*A clear, understandable explanation of pointers*Strings, file IO, arrays, references*Classes and advanced class design*C++-specific programming patterns*Object oriented programming*Data structures and the standard template library (STL)Key concepts are reinforced with quizzes and over 75 practice problems.

    It comprehensively presents the material necessary for understanding the internal architecture as well as system design aspects of Intel’s legendary 8085 and 8086 microprocessors and Intel’s 8051 and 8096 microcontrollers.The book throughout maintains an appropriate balance between the basic concepts and the skill sets needed for system design. Besides, the book lucidly explains the hardware architecture, the instruction set and programming, support chips, peripheral interfacing, and cites several relevant examples to help the readers develop a complete understanding of industrial application projects. Several system design case studies are included to reinforce the concepts discussed.With exhaustive coverage and practical approach, the book would be indispensable to undergraduate students of Electrical and Electronics, Electronics and Communication, and Electronics and Instrumentation Engineering. It can be used for a variety of courses in Microprocessors, Microcontrollers, and Embedded System Design.The second edition of the book introduces additional topics like I/O interfacing and programming, serial interface programming, delay programming using 8086 and 8051. Besides, many more examples and case studies have been added.Contents:Preface • Preface to the First EditionAcknowledgements1. System Design Using Microprocessor2. What a Microprocessor Is3.

    They teach you how to make games. This book does not show you how to make games. It shows you how to take your game project to the finish line. Many game projects never make it beyond the alpha state.Game Development Success Is All About The Inner Game.Being a successful game developer does not (just) mean being a great programmer, a smart game designer or a gifted artist. It means dominating the inner game of game making. This separates the pros from the wannabes. It's the knowledge of how to stay focused, motivated and efficient during your game projects. It's the skillset of keeping things simple and avoiding misleading dreams of the next overnight success. Finally it's about thinking as a salesperson, not just as a designer, programmer or artist.

    With no prior knowledge of game development or 3D required, you will learn from scratch, taking each concept at a time working up to a full 3D mini-game. You'll learn scripting with C# or JavaScript and master the Unity development environment with easy-to-follow stepwise tasks. If you're a designer or animator who wishes to take their first steps into game development or prototyping, or if you've simply spent many hours sitting in front of video games, with ideas bubbling away in the back of your mind, Unity and this book should be your starting point. No prior knowledge of game production is required, inviting you to simply bring with you a passion for making great games.
