Python Programming
Why Python has been proclaimed by the most Professional Techs as the best Scripting Language ? Do you want to learn Coding from scratch? This Book is probably what you looking for . Keep reading to discover more about it! Python is presumably the easiest-to-learn and nicest-to-use programming language in widespread use. Python code is clear to read and write, and it is short without being cryptic. It is a very powerful language, which means that we can generally write far fewer lines of Python code than would be needed for an equivalent application written in, say, C++ or Java.Python is typically typed in an implicit and dynamic format; hence, there is no requirement to declare variables. These types are enforced, and the variables are sensitive to cases. There is no definite array of characters used to terminate statements in Python. Any statement which expects a level of indentation is concluded using a colon sign. Multiple variables can also be used on a single line.This book covers the following topics: The 7 main Features of PythonWhy you should use PythonWhat is the best Python web app framework and whyData Types in PythonConditional StatementsWhy is Python so popular in Machine Learning...And much more!In Python Programming, the English language is mainly used in coding many keywords. The mastery of these keywords means knowledge of the fundamental aspects of python programming.However, before delving into these primary keywords, you have to understand the basic concepts associated with Python. These concepts are necessary to understand every other aspect of the scripting language.By reading this book, you're off to a great start. It is designed to ease your way into Python programming world.So, Ready to Become a Master of Python? Click "Buy Now" and Get the Book!

SBSE is a research area focused on the formulation of software engineering problems as search problems, and the subsequent use of complex heuristic techniques to attain optimal solutions to such problems. A wealth of engineering challenges - from test generation, to design refactoring, to process organization - can be solved efficiently through the application of automated optimization techniques. SBSE is a growing field - sitting at the crossroads between AI, machine learning, and software engineering - and SBSE techniques have begun to attain human-competitive results. Due to the Corona pandemic SSBSE 2020 was held as a virtual event.
Reach Zero Defects In Your Software Empirical Study
The book will help you to produce better Software-QualitySoftware defect prevention and software quality have been constantly improved over the past years, e.g. by applying various methods and measures and using modern programming languages.As the complexity and the scale of the software (SW) that has to designed are continually growing, it is necessary for the software quality to keep in step with this development. However, keeping in step is not enough because software applications are used more and more in security-related areas where e.g. human lives are at risk.One aspect of a further optimization of SW quality therefore is the determination of the success criteria that lead to a further prevention of errors. This prevention of software errors is especially important in the initial phases of software development.The following text therefore shows the essential success criteria for reducing errors and consequently further improving SW quality. The author determined these success criteria in an extensive analysis, e.g. by thorough review of relevant literature, results of congresses on SW quality, interviews and considerable own professional experience.In the interviews with 18 experts in 3 countries, the determined success criteria were assessed regarding their importance, effectiveness and degree of networking. The results are shown in various figures and also explained.Other analyses of the success criteria will be / have already been published by the author on Amazon.com/.de.The assessment of the success criteria enables the reader and user of these criteria to set the right priorities for the optimization of SW quality during software development.

Projektmanagement Essenz
In der Software-Entwicklung kennt man viele Projektmanagement-Methoden und -Standards (z.B. IPMA, PMI, Scrum, PRINCE2, SAFe). Die meistens davon sind sehr umfangreich und weisen dem Projektleiter eine Vielzahl von Aufgaben zu. In der Praxis kann man dadurch leicht den ?berblick verlieren! Sind alle Aspekte in gleichem Masse relevant? Wenn nicht, was ist wichtig und was kann allenfalls weglassen werden? Keine der vorhandenen Methoden nimmt dem Projektleiter diese Denkarbeit ab, denn es gen羹gt nicht, die einzelnen Aspekte fleissig, aber unreflektiert abzuarbeiten. Dieses Buch soll dem Leser helfen, die wesentlichen Aspekte des Projektmanagements zu erkennen. Dabei wird auf die einzelnen Kernaufgaben des Projektleiters eingegangen und aufgezeigt, was der eigentliche Sinn der jeweiligen Aufgabe ist. Da effektives Projektmanagement sowohl aus Handwerk als auch aus Softfaktoren besteht, werden beide Themenbereiche gleichermassen behandelt. Schenkt man diesen Essenzen die notwendige Aufmerksamkeit, kann das Projekt viel gezielter und effektiver gesteuert werden und bringt zus瓣tzlich Struktur, Klarheit und Ruhe in das Projekt - egal ob traditionell oder agil gef羹hrt.
