Summary : Willkommen im Datenzeitalter. Ob Smartphone, DSL-Router oder auch beim Einkauf um die Ecke: Daten fallen überall in großer Menge an und werden gespeichert. Um diese großen Datenmengen effizient und nutzbringend einsetzen zu können, ist eine geeignete Darstellungsform notwendig. Mit D3.js steht eine JavaScript-Bibliothek bereit, um große Datenmengen in unterschiedlichsten Diagrammtypen darstellen zu können. Werden Sie damit Herr der Daten. Bevor Sie eigene Diagramme mit D3.js erstellen können, müssen Sie sich mit der entsprechenden Syntax auseinandersetzen. Gull erklärt Ihnen die wichtigsten Regeln im ersten Kapitel. Danach geht es direkt ans Eingemachte: Balkendiagramme, Kreisdiagramme und animierte Diagramme. Erleben Sie die großen Möglichkeiten von D3 anhand von eigenen Diagrammen. Nach einem theoretischen und praktischen Einstieg in den ersten beiden Kapiteln widmet sich das Kapitel 3 einer großen Anwendung, dem Métro Information Tracker. Hierbei nutzen Sie öffentlich zugängliche Daten (Open Data), um mit unterschiedlichen Diagrammen Informationen zur Métro in Paris darzustellen. Hierbei setzen Sie sich mit allen Themen auseinander, die die moderne Webentwicklung zu bieten hat: HTML, CSS, JSON und SVG. In einem Force-Directed-Graph stellen Sie die Daten dar und reichern diesen mit SVG-Grafiken an. Nachdem Sie dieses Projekt selbst umgesetzt haben, sind Sie gewappnet für eigene große D3-Anwendungen. Der Quellcode steht auch online zur Verfügung. So lernen Ihre Modelle das Laufen! Erfahren Sie, wie Sie eine Armatur - eine Art Skelett - für Ihre Charaktere erstellen und sie mit der 3-D-Grafik verknüpfen. Anschließend können Sie die Animationsphasen selbst erstellen und aufnehmen. Darüber hinaus sehen Sie, wie Sie Licht und Schatten für die Kameraaufnahme gekonnt einsetzen. Aus dem Inhalt: • Datendarstellung im Web mit D3 • Eigenheiten und Syntaxregeln • Plug-ins von D3.js • Document Object Model • Visualisierung von Daten

Summary : Wer programmiert, muss sich mit neuen Techniken, Standards und Trends auseinandersetzen. Mit maschinellem Lernen, JavaScript, Python und den Standards C++17 und C++20 greift dieses iX kompakt aktuelle Trends in der Softwareentwicklung auf. Machine Learning und die Verarbeitung riesiger Datenmengen mit Maschinenintelligenz ist dabei, die IT umzukrempeln. Leistungsfähige Bibliotheken wie Googles TensorFlow und Scikit-learn bringen komplexe ML-Algorithmen in eigene Python-Programme. JavaScript steht ganz oben in der Liste der meist genutzten Programmiersprachen. Dieses iX kompakt zeigt unter anderem, was der aktuelle Stand der Dinge ist und wie man heutzutage komplexe Web-Anwendungen programmiert. Python ist zum Schweizer Taschenmesser in der IT geworden. Obwohl die Sprache schnell und einfach zu erlernen ist, lohnt es sich, tiefer einzusteigen und sich mit Themen wie Multithreading, Asynchronität und Jupyter/IPython zu beschäftigen. Die Standards C++17 und C++20 bringen dem Programmiersprachen-Klassiker etliche Neuerungen, unter anderem beim Multithreading. Ein Schwerpunkt des Hefts liegt auf den neuen Concepts. Die Artikel stammen aus iX, dem Heise-Magazin für professionelle IT. Das auf dem Titel beworbene iX-Video-Tutorial zu C ist bis zum 31.12.2018 für einen vergünstigten Preis erhältlich.

Summary : Generative design, once known only to insiders as a revolutionary method of creating artwork, models, and animations with programmed algorithms, has in recent years become a popular tool for designers. By using simple languages such as JavaScript in p5.js, artists and makers can create everything from interactive typography and textiles to 3D-printed furniture to complex and elegant infographics. This updated volume gives a jump-start on coding strategies, with step-by-step tutorials for creating visual experiments that explore the possibilities of color, form, typography, and images. Generative Design includes a gallery of all-new artwork from a range of international designers—fine art projects as well as commercial ones for Nike, Monotype, Dolby Laboratories, the musician Bjork, and others.

Summary : Generative design is a revolutionary new method of creating artwork, models, and animations from sets of rules, or algorithms. By using accessible programming languages such as Processing, artists and designers are producing extravagant, crystalline structures that can form the basis of anything from patterned textiles and typography to lighting, scientific diagrams, sculptures, films, and even fantastical buildings. Opening with a gallery of thirty-five illustrated case studies, Generative Design takes users through specific, practical instructions on how to create their own visual experiments by combining simple-to-use programming codes with basic design principles. A detailed handbook of advanced strategies provides visual artists with all the tools to achieve proficiency. Both a how-to manual and a showcase for recent work in this exciting new field, Generative Design is the definitive study and reference book that designers have been waiting for.

Summary : Three of CouchDB's creators show you how to use this document-oriented database as a standalone application framework or with high-volume, distributed applications. With its simple model for storing, processing, and accessing data, CouchDB is ideal for web applications that handle huge amounts of loosely structured data. That alone would stretch the limits of a relational database, yet CouchDB offers an open source solution that's reliable, scales easily, and responds quickly. CouchDB works with self-contained data that has loose or ad-hoc connections. It's a model that fits many real-world items, such as contacts, invoices, and receipts, but you'll discover that this database can easily handle data of any kind. With this book, you'll learn how to work with CouchDB through its RESTful web interface, and become familiar with key features such as simple document CRUD (create, read, update, delete), advanced MapReduce, deployment tuning, and more. Understand the basics of document-oriented storage and manipulation Interact with CouchDB entirely though HTTP using its RESTful interface Model data as self-contained JSON documents Handle evolving data schemas naturally Query and aggregate data in CouchDB using MapReduce views Replicate data between nodes Tune CouchDB for increased performance and reliability

Summary : JavaScript--the powerful, object-based scripting language that can be embedded directly into HTML pages--has earned its place in the web developer's toolkit, to the extent that it's now considered required knowledge for web developers. You can use JavaScript to create dynamic, interactive applications that run completely within a web browser. JavaScript is also the language of choice for developing Dynamic HTML content. Because its syntax is based on the popular programming languages C, C++, and Java, JavaScript is familiar and easy to learn for experienced programmers. At the same time, it's an interpreted scripting language, providing a flexible, forgiving programming environment for new programmers. The JavaScript Pocket Reference, 2nd Edition, provides a complete overview of the core JavaScript language and client-side scripting environment, as well as quick-reference material on core and client-side objects, methods, and properties. The new edition has been revised to cover JavaScript 1.5, and is particularly useful for developers working with the standards-compliant web browsers, such as Internet Explorer 6, Netscape 7, and Mozilla. Ideal as an introduction for beginners and a quick reference for advanced developers, this pocket-sized book is easy to take anywhere and serves as the perfect companion volume to the bestselling JavaScript: The Definitive Guide, 4th Edition. O'Reilly's Pocket References have become a favorite among developers everywhere. By providing a wealth of important details in a concise, well-organized format, these handy books deliver just what you need to complete the task at hand. When you've reached a sticking point and need to get to the answer quickly, the new JavaScript Pocket Reference is the book you'll want close at hand.
