Quantum computing sounds fancy but also scary. Is it possible to learn quantum computing rigorously without years of training in mathematics, physics, and Computer Science? This book tries to address this question. For any serious learner who has some basic training in science or engineering at the junior level, they should find this textbook useful to prepare themselves to start a serious quantum computing journey within a few months. This book is based on an introduction to quantum computing class I teach at San Jose State University. The target audiences are senior and master’s students who do not have a strong background in linear algebra and physics. This book is suitable for self-study or as a textbook for a one-semester or one-quarter introduction class at senior or master’s level. Real quantum computers (IBM-Q) are used to implement some of the algorithms, and students are encouraged to write their own simple simulator using Google Co-lab.

In this project, we embarked on a comprehensive journey through the world of Machine Learning and model evaluation. Our primary goal was to develop a Tkinter GUI and assess various Machine Learning models on a given dataset to identify the best-performing one. This process is essential in solving real-world problems, as it helps us select the most suitable algorithm for a specific task. By crafting this Tkinter-powered GUI, we provided an accessible and user-friendly interface for users engaging with Machine Learning models. It simplified intricate processes, allowing users to load data, select models, initiate training, and visualize results without necessitating code expertise or command-line operations. This GUI introduced a higher degree of usability and accessibility to the Machine Learning workflow, accommodating users with diverse levels of technical proficiency. We began by loading and preprocessing the dataset, a fundamental step in any Machine Learning project. Proper data preprocessing involves tasks such as handling missing values, encoding categorical features, and scaling numerical attributes. These operations ensure that the data is in a format suitable for training and testing Machine Learning models. Once our data was ready, we moved on to the model selection phase. We evaluated multiple Machine Learning algorithms, each with its strengths and weaknesses. The models we explored included Logistic Regression, Random Forest, K-Nearest Neighbors (KNN), Decision Trees, Gradient Boosting, Extreme Gradient Boosting (XGBoost), Multi-Layer Perceptron (MLP), and Support Vector Classifier (SVC).

"Mastering PowerShell: Unleashing the Power of Automation" guides you through the complex world of PowerShell scripting and automation. This book, written for both rookie and expert administrators, will provide you with the information and abilities you need to fully utilise PowerShell and revolutionise your IT infrastructure. Real-world examples and practical exercises reinforce your learning and help you apply PowerShell to your own IT systems throughout the book. Whether you're in charge of a small network or a huge organisation, this book will help you optimise your operations, remove manual duties, and achieve unprecedented levels of productivity and efficiency. Microsoft PowerShell is a scripting language and automation system. It is intended for system administrators and power users who want to control and automate processes in Windows operating systems. PowerShell combines the characteristics of a CLI and a scripting language, allowing users to interact with the system via text-based commands and scripts. PowerShell allows you to handle files and directories, configure network settings, manipulate the Windows Registry, manage services and processes, and interface with numerous Windows components and technologies. It also enables users to automate repetitive processes, configure complex systems, and create bespoke administrative tools. PowerShell's ability to work with objects and pipelines is one of its most important features.

This book is an instructional text that will teach you how to code x86-64 assembly language functions. It also explains how you can exploit the SIMD capabilities of an x86-64 processor using x86-64 assembly language and the AVX, AVX2, and AVX-512 instruction sets. This updated edition’s content and organization are designed to help you quickly understand x86-64 assembly language programming and the unique computational capabilities of x86 processors. The source code is structured to accelerate learning and comprehension of essential x86-64 assembly language programming constructs and data structures. Modern X86 Assembly Language Programming, Third Edition includes source code for both Windows and Linux. The source code elucidates current x86-64 assembly language programming practices, run-time calling conventions, and the latest generation of software development tools. While it is still theoretically possible to write large sections or an entire application program using assembly language, the demanding requirements of contemporary software development mean that such an approach is both impractical and ill-advised. Instead, this book accentuates the coding x86-64 assembly language functions that are callable from C++. The downloadable software package for this book includes source code that works on both Windows (Visual C++ and MASM) and Linux (GNU C++ and NASM).

A practical approach to Prompt Engineering for developers. Dive into the world of Prompt Engineering agility, optimizing your prompts for dynamic LLM interactions. Learn with hands-on examples from the real world and elevate your developer experience with LLMs. Discover how the right prompts can revolutionize your interactions with LLMs. In "LLM Prompt Engineering For Developers," we take a comprehensive journey into the world of LLMs and the art of crafting effective prompts for them. The guide starts by laying the foundation, exploring the evolution of Natural Language Processing (NLP) from its early days to the sophisticated LLMs we interact with today. You will dive deep into the complexities of models such as GPT models, understanding their architecture, capabilities, and nuances. As we progress, this guide emphasizes the importance of effective prompt engineering and its best practices. While LLMs like ChatGPT (GPT-3.5) are powerful, their full potential is only realized when they are communicated with effectively. This is where prompt engineering comes into play. It's not simply about asking the model a question; it's about phrasing, context, and understanding the model's logic. Through chapters dedicated to Azure Prompt Flow, LangChain, and other tools, you'll gain hands-on experience in crafting, testing, scoring and optimizing prompts. We'll also explore advanced concepts like Few-shot Learning, Chain of Thought, Perplexity and techniques like ReAct and General Knowledge Prompting, equipping you with a comprehensive understanding of the domain.

The past decade has seen cloud and infrastructure as code move out of shadow IT and startups and into the mainstream. Many organizations rushed to adopt new technologies as part of their transformation into digital businesses, creating a sprawl of unmaintainable infrastructure codebases. Now, there is a need to consolidate cloud-based systems into mature foundations for sustainable growth. With this book, Kief Morris describes patterns and practices for building and evolving infrastructure as code. The third edition provides a broader context for infrastructure, explaining how to design and implement infrastructure to better support the strategic goals and challenges of an organization, such as supporting growth while better managing costs. A literal definition of Infrastructure as Code is the practice of provisioning and managing infrastructure using code, as opposed to doing it interactively, or with non-code automation tools. By “interactively”, I mean using a command-line tool or GUI interface to carry out tasks. The alternative is writing code that can then be distributed and applied by automated systems. Interactive infrastructure management doesn’t help in doing things consistently or repeatably, since you decide how to implement each change as you work.
