Head first Ruby / by McGavren, Jay,author.(CARDINAL)623907;
Includes bibliographical references (page 513) and index."What will you learn from this book? What's all the buzz about this Ruby language? Is it right for you? Well, ask yourself: are you tired of all those extra declarations, keywords, and compilation steps in your other languages? Do you want to be a more productive programmer? Then you'll love Ruby. WIth this unique hands-on learning experience, you'll discover how Ruby takes care of all the details for you, so you can simply have fun and get more done with less code. What's so special about this book? Based on the latest research in cognitive science and learning theory, Head First Ruby uses a visually rich format to engage your mind, rather than a text-heavy approach that puts you to sleep. Why waste your time struggling with new concepts? This multi-sensory learning experience is designed for the way your brain really works."--More with less : code the way you want -- Methods and classes : getting organized -- Inheritance : relying on your parents -- Initializing instances : off to a great start -- Arrays and blocks : better than loops -- Block return values : how should I handle this? -- Hashes : labeling data -- References : crossed signals -- Mixins : mix it up -- Comparable and enumerable : ready-made mixes -- Documentation : read the manual -- Exceptions : handling the unexpected -- Unit testing : code quality assurance -- Web apps : serving HTML -- Saving and loading data : keep it around -- Leftovers : the top ten topics (we didn't cover).

Text mining with R : a tidy approach / by Silge, Julia,author.; Robinson, David,author.;
Includes bibliographical references (pages 173-174) and index.Much of the data available today is unstructured and text-heavy, making it challenging for analysts to apply their usual data wrangling and visualization tools. With this practical book, you'll explore text-mining techniques with tidytext, a package that authors Julia Silge and David Robinson developed using the tidy principles behind R packages like ggraph and dplyr . You'll learn how tidytext and other tidy tools in R can make text analysis easier and more effective. The authors demonstrate how treating text as data frames enables you to manipulate, summarize, and visualize characteristics of text. You'll also learn how to integrate natural language processing (NLP) into effective workflows. Practical code examples and data explorations will help you generate real insights from literature, news, and social media. Learn how to apply the tidy text format to NLP Use sentiment analysis to mine the emotional content of text Identify a document's most important terms with frequency measurements Explore relationships and connections between words with the ggraph and widyr packages Convert back and forth between R's tidy and non-tidy text formats Use topic modeling to classify document collections into natural groups Examine case studies that compare Twitter archives, dig into NASA metadata, and analyze thousands of Usenet messages

Learn data mining through excel : a step-by-step approach for understanding machine learning methods / by Zhou, Hong,author.;
Use popular data mining techniques in Microsoft Excel to better understand machine learning methods. Software tools and programming language packages take data input and deliver data mining results directly, presenting no insight on working mechanics and creating a chasm between input and output. This is where Excel can help. Excel allows you to work with data in a transparent manner. When you open an Excel file, data is visible immediately and you can work with it directly. Intermediate results can be examined while you are conducting your mining task, offering a deeper understanding of how data is manipulated and results are obtained. These are critical aspects of the model construction process that are hidden in software tools and programming language packages. This book teaches you data mining through Excel. You will learn how Excel has an advantage in data mining when the data sets are not too large. It can give you a visual representation of data mining, building confidence in your results. You will go through every step manually, which offers not only an active learning experience, but teaches you how the mining process works and how to find the internal hidden patterns inside the data. What You Will Learn *Comprehend data mining using a visual step-by-step approach *Build on a theoretical introduction of a data mining method, followed by an Excel implementation *Unveil the mystery behind machine learning algorithms, making a complex topic accessible to everyone *Become skilled in creative uses of Excel formulas and functions *Obtain hands-on experience with data mining and Excel. Who This Book Is For Anyone who is interested in learning data mining or machine learning, especially data science visual learners and people skilled in Excel, who would like to explore data science topics and/or expand their Excel skills. A basic or beginner level understanding of Excel is recommended.
