Big-O Algorithm Complexity Cheat Sheet 40 Cool jQuery Animation Tutorials Since its arrival, jQuery has caught the web by storm and now it is one of the preferred solutions in creating fancy animations on web pages. jQuery provides great cross browser support, it is lightweight and easy to use. Right now, you can see jQuery effects applied in a number of ways that effectively demonstrate its power to define and control small-scale web animations. Until newer technologies like CSS3 fully mature with adequate support from major browsers and all, jQuery will continue the lead. We will still be seeing a lot of its application in navigation interfaces, sliders and other image display mechanisms, in enhancing web typography and more going forward. Therefore, to help you work your way around jQuery, I am sharing with you some of the best jQuery animation tutorials and plugins I have been able to find. Keep in mind though, that all major web standards and frameworks develop at light speed. Advertisement jQuery Animation Tutorials jQuery.Parallax – MORE INFO / DEMO

Essential Math for Games Programmers As the quality of games has improved, more attention has been given to all aspects of a game to increase the feeling of reality during gameplay and distinguish it from its competitors. Mathematics provides much of the groundwork for this improvement in realism. And a large part of this improvement is due to the addition of physical simulation. Creating such a simulation may appear to be a daunting task, but given the right background it is not too difficult, and can add a great deal of realism to animation systems, and interactions between avatars and the world. This tutorial deepens the approach of the previous years' Essential Math for Games Programmers, by spending one day on general math topics, and one day focusing in on the topic of physical simulation. It, like the previous tutorials, provides a toolbox of techniques for programmers, with references and links for those looking for more information. Topics for the various incarnations of this tutorial can be found below. Slides

Dr. Dobb's | Good stuff for serious developers: Programming Tools, Code, C++, Java, HTML5, Cloud, Mobile, Testing Eulerian Video Magnification banner slider Many seemingly static scenes contain subtle changes that are invisible to the naked human eye. However, it is possible to pull out these small changes from videos through the use of algorithms we have developed. We give a way to visualize these small changes by amplifying them and we present algorithms to pull out interesting signals from these videos, such as the human pulse, sound from vibrating objects and the motion of hot air. Videos Software and Code Eulerian Video Magnification code Matlab code and executables implementing Eulerian video processing for amplifying color and motion changes. Phase Based Video Motion Processing code Matlab code for implementing the new and improved phase-based motion magnification pipeline. Videoscope Web interface for motion and color magnification.

Best Practices for Designing a Pragmatic RESTful API | Vinay Sahni Your data model has started to stabilize and you're in a position to create a public API for your web app. You realize it's hard to make significant changes to your API once it's released and want to get as much right as possible up front. Now, the internet has no shortage on opinions on API design. But, since there's no one widely adopted standard that works in all cases, you're left with a bunch of choices: What formats should you accept? In designing an API for SupportFu (a lightweight Zendesk alternative ), I've tried to come up with pragmatic answers to these questions. ... or just skip to the bottom and signup for updates Key requirements for the API Many of the API design opinions found on the web are academic discussions revolving around subjective interpretations of fuzzy standards as opposed to what makes sense in the real world. An API is a developer's UI - just like any UI, it's important to ensure the user's experience is thought out carefully! Use RESTful URLs and actions
