Learn the awesome Julia programming language by building fun projects
like a rocket launcher, a password keeper, and a battle simulator.
Julia as a Second Language covers:
• Data types like numbers, strings, arrays, and dictionaries
• Immediate feedback with Julia’s read-evaluate-print-loop (REPL)
• Simplify code interactions with multiple dispatch
• Sharing code using modules and packages
• Object-oriented and functional programming styles
Julia as a Second Language
introduces Julia to readers with a beginning-level knowledge of another
language like Python or JavaScript. You’ll learn by coding engaging
hands-on projects that encourage you to apply what you’re learning
immediately. Don’t be put off by Julia’s reputation as a scientific
programming language—there’s no data science or numerical computing
knowledge required. You can get started with what you learned in high
school math classes.
About the technology
Originally
designed for high-performance data science, Julia has become an awesome
general purpose programming language. It offers developer-friendly
features like garbage collection, dynamic typing, and a flexible
approach to concurrency and distributed computing. It is the perfect mix
of simplicity, flexibility and performance.
About the book
Julia as a Second Language
introduces Julia by building on your existing programming knowledge.
You’ll see Julia in action as you create a series of interesting
projects that guide you from Julia’s basic syntax through its advanced
features. Master types and data structures as you model a rocket launch.
Use dictionaries to interpret Roman numerals. Use Julia’s unique
multiple dispatch feature to send knights and archers into a simulated
battle. Along the way, you’ll even compare the object-oriented and
functional programming styles–Julia supports both!
About the reader
For readers comfortable with another programming language like Python, JavaScript, or C#.
