Credit Scoring, Data Mining, Predictive Analytics, Statistics, StatSoft Electronic Textbook "Thank you and thank you again for providing a complete, well-structured, and easy-to-understand online resource. Every other website or snobbish research paper has not deigned to explain things in words consisting of less than four syllables. I was tossed to and fro like a man holding on to a frail plank that he calls his determination until I came across your electronic textbook...You have cleared the air for me. You have enlightened. You have illuminated. Think Python Think Python is a concise introduction to software design using the Python programming language. Intended for people with no programming experience, this book starts with the most basic concepts and gradually adds new material. Some of the ideas students find most challenging, like recursion and object-oriented programming, are divided into a sequence of smaller steps and introduced over the course of several chapters. The focus is on the programming process, with special emphasis on debugging. The book includes a wide range of exercises, from short examples to substantial projects, so that students have ample opportunity to practice each new concept. Exercise solutions and code examples are available from thinkpython.com, along with Swampy, a suite of Python programs used in some of the exercises.

The Python Script Collection For Windows - Automating Microsoft Outlook For Outlook automation it is nesseccary to use the makepy utility. You do this either from the tools menu of the Pythonwin-Editor (installed with Pywin32 or ActivePython) or you call the file c:\python23\Lib\site-packages\win32com\client\makepy.py. You then have to select the Outlook Object Library ("Microsoft Outlook 10.0 Object Library" for Office 10.0 or known as Office XP). After that Python generates cachefiles into the directory c:\python23\Lib\site-packages\win32com\gen_py or c:\temp\gen_py to tell Python more about the Outlook object library. Weka 3 - Data Mining with Open Source Machine Learning Software in Java Weka is a collection of machine learning algorithms for data mining tasks. It contains tools for data preparation, classification, regression, clustering, association rules mining, and visualization. Found only on the islands of New Zealand, the Weka is a flightless bird with an inquisitive nature. The name is pronounced like this, and the bird sounds like this. Weka is open source software issued under the GNU General Public License.

Style Guide for Python Code Code should be written in a way that does not disadvantage other implementations of Python (PyPy, Jython, IronPython, Cython, Psyco, and such).For example, do not rely on CPython's efficient implementation of in-place string concatenation for statements in the form a += b or a = a + b. This optimization is fragile even in CPython (it only works for some types) and isn't present at all in implementations that don't use refcounting. In performance sensitive parts of the library, the ''.join() form should be used instead.

Website Thumbnails with CSS — Boldewyn’s Website A thumb­nail view of a web­site is mean­while a com­mon sight. Google has re­cently in­tro­duced it in its search res­ults page, and nu­mer­ous ad ser­vices offer more or less an­noy­ing tool tips with page pre­views. What all these in­stances have in com­mon is the need for ren­der­ing the webpage in ques­tion on the server and dis­play­ing the image only to the cli­ent. In this art­icle I’ll show a thumb­nail tech­nique that works in the browser alone (given some CSS3 sup­port). The Tech­nique
