Introductory C with C＋＋
C differs from most programming languages in its use of expressions, pointers, and arrays. For those learning C, pointers are the greatest source of confusion. The primary aim of this text is to provide working models of how pointers are used in C as well as an introduction to their use in C++. Most beginners falter on the use of pointers. Many try to avoid pointers completely, but quickly find that pointers are used extensively throughout C programs. Some attain a partial understanding of pointers which, at first, gets them by. However, when faced with complex programming tasks, they find that pointers become a necessity. In most programming languages one learns about pointers only after most other topics have been discussed. Pointers are just one more added feature of the language. In C and in C++, however, pointers are used with every feature. There are pointers to variables, pointers as parameters, pointers as arrays, pointers to structures, and even pointers to pointers. With each feature pointers are used differently. The way pointers work with variables is very different from the way pointers work with arrays. In this text, you learn pointers as you learn each feature of the language. With variables, you learn pointers to variables; with parameters, pointers to parameters; with functions: pointers to functions; with arrays, pointers in arrays; with structures, pointers to structures. In addition, for C++ you will learn pointers to objects, to class members, and derived objects. Such an approach provides an understanding of the many different ways pointers are used throughout the language. The text is arranged in five sections. The first section focuses on the basic structure of the language. Variables, functions, and expressions are carefully examined. The second section deals with arrays. Arrays form an exception in C. Unlike structures they are not data objects. They are completely managed by pointers. The third section describes data structures and file management. The chapter on data structures introduces basic concepts such as linked lists and trees. A special examination is made of recursion and how it operates with lists, trees, and b-trees. The chapters on file management discuss the different types of files with special emphasis on record files b-tree indexes. The fourth section provides an introduction to C++, covering classes and objects, their use with pointers, as well as operator overloading and inheritance. The fifth section covers additional topics greater detail such as the pre-processor and bitwise operations.

A CRITICAL STUDY OF PSYCHO SEXUAL PROBLEMS of TEENAGERS
In the developmental psychology one could see that the person grows from one stage to another stage step by step. This gradual process of human being is a natural aspect where the growth either leads either positive development or negative regression. From childhood to old age there are various stages where a person grows and develops his physical, mental and psychological facet of life. In these stages the adolescent stage is very interesting and golden stage in one's life. This stage is also known as "Teenage" where a boy or girl passes through a transition period from childhood. This progress is very unique as it is creating a certain level of maturity in one's physical and mental development.A boy or girl who has been in the protection of parents a child has move from restriction and control to freedom and autonomy. This peculiar and unique period has created false understanding among the parents that the children may be misled or they may take a negative path. This over cautious attitude of parents has led the children to get angry or a negative behaviour towards the parents. So there is a tug war going on between the teenager and the parents. In a way the parents are over protective towards their children so that the teenager feels that they still treated as children and the teenager is unable to enjoy the freedom and autonomy.Since such false understating and a tug of war in other words a hide and seek between these two groups continue to exist where the question arises who is right and who is wrong. At the same time who fails in his/her role as parents as well as a teenager. This problem of misunderstanding and role failure has created in me a researcher to find out where the problem is and who creates the problem and if at all there comes up a problem then who needs to be intervened is all about my study.By doing this research we are clear where this over protective parents who just created a wonder and curiosity, on the other hand the Teenager who misunderstood their parents started playing the hide and seek.Having my own personal interest and personal inquisitiveness I have completed this research work with the help of teenagers themselves. I hope this would be a guide in directing the teenagers and their parents.

It trusts your intuition and focuses on things that you are most likely to forget or be confused about. It devotes special attention to coding mistakes or unusual circumstances in which your script or command will fail. This is probably the only printed book to have syntax-highlighted code snippets in full colour.ChaptersTerminalShell ScriptingCaja Actions ConfigurationSystem AdministrationInternet TasksMultimedia TasksOffice TasksMiscellaneous Tips & TricksMost Linux books do a good job of describing expected behaviour. Very few of them focus on stuff that can go wrong. And, as everyone knows, if things can go wrong, they most likely will. Given that trillions of dollars of assets are managed by shell scripts, it is important to avoid all avoidable mistakes. That is why you need this book.

Learning Python
Python is an easy to learn, powerful programming language. It has efficient high-level data structures and a simple but effective approach to object-oriented programming. Python's elegant syntax and dynamic typing, together with its interpreted nature, make it an ideal language for scripting and rapid application development in many areas on most platforms. The Python interpreter and the extensive standard library are freely available in source or binary form for all major platforms from the Python Web site.The same site also contains distributions of and pointers to many free third party Python modules, programs and tools, and additional documentation. The Python interpreter is easily extended with new functions and data types implemented in C or C++ (or other languages callable from C). Python is also suitable as an extension language for customizable applications. This tutorial introduces the reader informally to the basic concepts and features of the python language and system. It helps to have a Python interpreter handy for hands-on experience, but all examples are self contained, so the tutorial can be read off-line as well. For a description of standard objects and modules, see library-index. reference-index gives a more formal definition of the language. To write extensions in C or C++, read extending-index and c-api-index. There are also several books covering Python in depth. This tutorial does not attempt to be comprehensive and cover every single feature, or even every commonly used feature. Instead, it introduces many of Python's most noteworthy features, and will give you a good idea of the language's flavor and style. After reading it, you will be able to read and write Python modules and programs, and you will be ready to learn more about the various Python library modules described in library-index. The Glossary is also worth going through. This fast-paced, thorough introduction to programming with Python will have you writing programs, solving problems, and making things that work in no time.

SwiftUI Animations by Tutorials (First Edition)
Learn SwiftUI Animations!SwiftUI has absolutely changed our lives when it comes to developer experience and developer productivity. We can make beautiful apps extremely quickly, get instant feedback from SwiftUI previews and iterate. SwiftUI also enables developers to easily leverage most common animations using simple SwiftUI modifiers, making it a pleasure to use. But it also begs the question: "How do I make my app stand out if everyone is using the same standard animations?"Luckily, SwiftUI Animations by Tutorials is here to help you learn how to create detailed and delightful animations, starting from the basics and up to the most complex and customizable ones.Who This Book is ForThis book aims to push the envelope for seasoned developers who can leverage SwiftUI's basic animation system but aren't aware of the many advanced concepts available to bring their animations to the next level of craftsmanship and interactivity, broadening the reader's horizons and creative thinking.Topics Covered in SwiftUI Animations by TutorialsBasic Animations: You'll start your journey through this book by exploring how the SwiftUI animation system works and how to create some simple and useful animations.Timing Curves: You'll learn how animation timing curves work and how to create your own custom timing curves.Transitions: Transitions represent how elements enter and exit the scene in SwiftUI. You'll use and learn how to leverage the most basic transitions, build up to complex transitions using Matched Geometry, and finally build an entirely custom transition.Shape Animations: You'll learn how to use animations to enhance custom shapes and their paths.Custom Animations: You'll learn how to leverage the Animatable protocol to create entirely custom animations based on complex value changes. You'll use AnimatablePair to further your custom animations to support multiple value changes.Time-Based Animations: You'll learn how to create custom animations that occur over time and get to build one such animation and draw it on a custom Canvas.SceneKit & SwiftUI: You'll learn how to enjoy the best of both worlds, combining SwiftUI animations with SceneKit animations right inside your SwiftUI views.Real World Elements: You'll wrap up this book by recreating a well-known highly-complex UI element - The Apple Watch Honeycomb grid, and use everything you learned throughout the book to achieve a well-polished result.One thing you can count on: After reading this book, you'll be prepared to tackle any crazy animation ideas that come to your mind, impressing your users with well-crafted animations.
C＋＋20 - The Complete Guide
All the new language and library features of C++20 (for those who know the previous versions of C++).C++20 is the next evolution in modern C++ programming, now supported by major C++ compilers. However, C++20 is huge. It will change the way we program more dramatically than C++11 did. Combining new features gives you even more power. However, not everything is self-explanatory and there are hidden traps. Therefore, it is key to understand all the concepts of C++20 and learn how to benefit best.This book covers the motivation for and context of all new C++20 features (covering both language and library), providing many examples and unique background information for application programmers as well as for library developers. The focus is on how these features impact day-to-day programming, what effect combining features can have, and how you can benefit from them in practice.
