Many revolutionary impossibility theorems reveal profound properties of logic, computation, fairness and the universe. To fully appreciate these theorems and their impact on mathematics and beyond, you must understand their proofs. In this book Dan Gusfield presents these proofs for a broad, lay audience, reworked to contain less jargon and notation, and more background, intuition, examples, explanations, and exercises.

This book teaches important computer algorithms by asking the reader to solve competitive programming problems.  Dr. Daniel Zingaro uses programs and challenges that are drawn from real programming competitions to illustrate how to make use of data structures and algorithms. Topics covered include hash tables, recursion, dynamic programming, trees, graphs, and heaps, and how to choose and implement the best solutions for any coding challenge. The code examples are written in C and designed for clarity and accessibility.

This book shows that data structures and algorithms aren't just theory, but are useful for your Python code. Jay Wengrow looks at how techniques such as Big O notation can make code run faster, and how data structures such as hash tables, trees, and graphs can increase your code's efficiency exponentially. With simple language and clear diagrams, this book makes this complex topic accessible, and shows how to take a practical approach to data structures and algorithms, with techniques and real-world scenarios that you can use in your daily production code.

Pi OS, the Raspberry Pi’s operating system is Linux based and Linux drivers are available for many off-the-shelf IoT devices. These provide a very easy-to-use, high-level way of working, but there is very little documentation to help you get started. In this second edition Harry Fairhead explains the principles so that you can tackle new devices and he also guides you through using external hardware via standard Linux drivers on the full range of Raspberry Pis, now including the Pi 5 and the Pi Zero 2W.

This book shows how to put the Raspberry Pi to good use in IoT by combining expertise in electronics and programming.  Harry Fairhead shows how to work directly with the hardware using the Raspberry Pi's GPIO (General Purpose Input Output) to connect with off-the-shelf sensors. This 3rd Edition was prompted by the arrival of the Pi 5, and the book looks at getting started with an IoT project with the Pi 5, the use of the Linux GPIO driver, and accessing the Pi 5’s registers directly. The Pi Zero 2W is also covered for the first time, looking at how this much faster, quad-core, version of the Pi Zero W is an excellent choice for IoT projects.
