Leverage the functional programming and concurrency features of Rust and speed up your application development About This Book • Get started with Rust to build scalable and high performance applications • Enhance your application development skills using the power of Rust • Discover the power of Rust when developing concurrent applications for large and scalable software Who This Book Is For The book is for developers looking for a quick entry into using Rust and understanding the core features of the language. Basic programming knowledge is assumed. What You Will Learn • Set up your Rust environment to achieve the highest productivity • Bridge the performance gap between safe and unsafe languages • Use pattern matching to create flexible code • Apply generics and traits to develop widely applicable code • Organize your code in modules and crates • Build macros to extend Rust's capabilities and reach • Apply tasks to tackle problems concurrently in a distributed environment In Detail Rust is the new, open source, fast, and safe systems programming language for the 21st century, developed at Mozilla Research, and with a steadily growing community. It was created to solve the dilemma between high-level, slow code with minimal control over the system, and low-level, fast code with maximum system control. It is no longer necessary to learn C/C++ to develop resource intensive and low-level systems applications. This book will give you a head start to solve systems programming and application tasks with Rust. We start off with an argumentation of Rust's unique place in today's landscape of programming languages. You'll install Rust and learn how to work with its package manager Cargo. The various concepts are introduced step by step: variables, types, functions, and control structures to lay the groundwork. Then we explore more structured data such as strings, arrays, and enums, and you'll see how pattern matching works. Throughout all this, we stress the unique ways of reasoning that the Rust compiler uses to produce safe code. Next we look at Rust's specific way of error handling, and the overall importance of traits in Rust code. The pillar of memory safety is treated in depth as we explore the various pointer kinds. Next, you'll see how macros can simplify code generation, and how to compose bigger projects with modules and crates. Finally, you'll discover how we can write safe concurrent code in Rust and interface with C programs, get a view of the Rust ecosystem, and explore the use of the standard library. Style and approach The book takes a pragmatic approach, showing various methods to solve systems programming tasks with Rust and develop resource intensive and low-level systems applications.

Enter the exciting world of Julia, a high-performance language for technical computingKey FeaturesLeverage Julia's high speed and efficiency for your applicationsWork with Julia in a multi-core, distributed, and networked environmentApply Julia to tackle problems concurrently and in a distributed environmentBook DescriptionThe release of Julia 1.0 is now ready to change the technical world by combining the high productivity and ease of use of Python and R with the lightning-fast speed of C++. Julia 1.0 programming gives you a head start in tackling your numerical and data problems. You will begin by learning how to set up a running Julia platform, before exploring its various built-in types. With the help of practical examples, this book walks you through two important collection types: arrays and matrices. In addition to this, you will be taken through how type conversions and promotions work. In the course of the book, you will be introduced to the homo-iconicity and metaprogramming concepts in Julia. You will understand how Julia provides different ways to interact with an operating system, as well as other languages, and then you'll discover what macros are. Once you have grasped the basics, you’ll study what makes Julia suitable for numerical and scientific computing, and learn about the features provided by Julia. By the end of this book, you will also have learned how to run external programs. This book covers all you need to know about Julia in order to leverage its high speed and efficiency for your applications.What you will learnSet up your Julia environment to achieve high productivityCreate your own types to extend the built-in type systemVisualize your data in Julia with plotting packagesExplore the use of built-in macros for testing and debugging, among other usesApply Julia to tackle problems concurrentlyIntegrate Julia with other languages such as C, Python, and MATLABWho this book is forJulia 1.0 Programming is for you if you are a statistician or data scientist who wants a crash course in the Julia programming language while building big data applications. A basic knowledge of mathematics is needed to understand the various methods that are used or created during the course of the book to exploit the capabilities that Julia is designed with.

Discover how to use the next-generation language Red for full-stack development, from systems coding over user-interfaces to blockchain programmingKey FeaturesExplore the latest features of Red to build scalable, fast, and secure applicationsLearn graphical programming and build highly sophisticated reactive applicationsGet familiar with the specific concepts and techniques of Red development, like working with series, viewing code as data, and using dialects.Book DescriptionA key problem of software development today is software bloat, where huge toolchains and development environments are needed in software coding and deployment. Red significantly reduces this bloat by offering a minimalist but complete toolchain. This is the first introductory book about it, and it will get you up and running with Red as quickly as possible.This book shows you how to write effective functions, reduce code redundancies, and improve code reuse. It will be helpful for new programmers who are starting out with Red to explore its wide and ever-growing package ecosystem and also for experienced developers who want to add Red to their skill set.The book presents the fundamentals of programming in Red and in-depth informative examples using a step-by-step approach.
