Introduction to Neural Networks CS-449: Neural Networks Fall 99 Instructor: Genevieve Orr Think Python: How to Think Like a Computer Scientist How to Think Like a Computer Scientist by Allen B. Downey This is the first edition of Think Python. It uses Python 2, with notes on differences in Python 3. Laboratory Fundamentals of Synthetic Biology From OpenWetWare Syllabus Class Format The Class will meet twice a week, one 2 hour classroom session, and one 3 hour lab session. For the Single Founder Who Can’t Code Editor’s note: This is a guest post by Mick Hagen (@mickhagen), founder and CEO of Undrip. He was previously the founder of Zinch which was acquired by Chegg last year. He made headlines in the Fall with his rap campaign – an unorthodox approach to fundraising. You can learn more about him at MickHagen.com. Last summer when I started working on Undrip, I was in a tough spot. I grew up doing web and graphic design so I was a pretty good front-end developer and designer.

Apache Hadoop is a software solution for distributed computing of large datasets. Hadoop provides a distributed filesystem (HDFS) and a MapReduce implementation. A special computer acts as the "name node". Ruby on Rails Tutorial: Learn Rails by Example book and screencasts by Michael Hartl Michael Hartl Contents Foreword My former company (CD Baby) was one of the first to loudly switch to Ruby on Rails, and then even more loudly switch back to PHP (Google me to read about the drama).

Hadoop Tutorial home | Cloud Types | Related Technologies What is Hadoop? Miha Ahronovitz, Ahrono & Associates Kuldip Pabla, Ahrono & Associates Hadoop is a fault-tolerant distributed system for data storage which is highly scalable. The scalability is the result of a Self-Healing High Bandwith Clustered Storage , known by the acronym of HDFS (Hadoop Distributed File System) and a specific fault-tolerant Distributed Processing, known as MapReduce. (Hadoop Distributed File System) and a specific fault-tolerant Distributed Processing, known as MapReduce.

Features - Sugar Arrays Sugar begins by fixing broken support for standard Javascript 1.6 array methods, such as indexOf, forEach, reduce, etc. These methods are also enhanced to accept arguments that browser native methods won't, such as nested objects, iterating functions, regexes, or strings that provide a shortcut to an iterating function. In such cases, however, browser native methods will always be defered to when possible. Many other methods help make working with arrays easier.

Getting Started with Hadoop and Map Reduce Have you been wanting to learn Hadoop, but have no idea how to get started? Carlo Scarioni has a basic Hadoop tutorial that covers installing Hadoop, creating a Hadoop Distributed File System (HDFS), moving files into HDFS, and creating a simple Hadoop application. The tutorial also introduces the basic concepts of Map Reduce. It doesn't, however, get into distributing the application, which is the main point of using Hadoop in the first place. 10 CoffeeScript One Liners to Impress Your Friends You may have read "10 Scala One Liners to Impress Your Friends" at Marcus Kazmierczak's blog recently featured on HN. Although I don't know Scala (or Java), it all looks quite nice, so I decided to impress my friends too - folks go from Java to Scala, we go from Javascript to CoffeeScript. Assume node.js as the environment for all examples. 1.
