商品描述

Learn approaches of computational thinking and the art of designing algorithms. Most of the algorithms you will see in this book are used in almost all software that runs on your computer.

Learning how to program can be very rewarding. It is a special feeling to seeing a computer translate your thoughts into actions and see it solve your problems for you. To get to that point, however, you must learn to think about computations in a new way--you must learn computational thinking.

This book begins by discussing models of the world and how to formalize problems. This leads onto a definition of computational thinking and putting computational thinking in a broader context. The practical coding in the book is carried out in Python; you'll get an introduction to Python programming, including how to set up your development environment.

 

What You Will Learn

  • Think in a computational way
  • Acquire general techniques for problem solving
  • See general and concrete algorithmic techniques
  • Program solutions that are both computationally efficient and maintainable

Who This Book Is For

Those new to programming and computer science who are interested in learning how to program algorithms and working with other computational aspects of programming.

 

 

 

 

商品描述(中文翻譯)

學習計算思維的方法和設計演算法的藝術。本書中的大部分演算法都被用於運行在您電腦上的幾乎所有軟體。

學習如何編程可以帶來很大的回報。看到電腦將您的思想轉化為行動並解決您的問題,是一種特殊的感覺。然而,要達到這一點,您必須以一種新的方式思考計算--您必須學習計算思維。

本書首先討論了世界的模型以及如何形式化問題。這導致了對計算思維的定義,並將計算思維放在更廣泛的背景下。本書中的實際編碼是使用Python進行的;您將獲得Python編程的介紹,包括如何設置開發環境。

您將學到什麼:

- 以計算方式思考
- 獲得解決問題的一般技巧
- 看到一般和具體的演算法技巧
- 編寫既具有計算效率又易於維護的解決方案

本書適合對編程和計算機科學新手,他們有興趣學習如何編寫演算法並處理編程的其他計算方面。

作者簡介

Thomas Mailund, PhD is an associate professor in bioinformatics at Aarhus University, Denmark. He has a background in math and computer science, including experience programming and teaching in the C, Python and R programming languages. For the last decade, his main focus has been on genetics and evolutionary studies, particularly comparative genomics, speciation, and gene flow between emerging species.
