The single most important skill for a computer scientist is problem solving. The goal of this book is to teach you to think like a computer scientist.

The goal of this book is to teach you to think like a computer scientist. This way of thinking combines some of the best features of mathematics, engineering, and natural science. The single most important skill for a computer scientist is problem solving. As it turns out, the process of learning to program is an excellent opportunity to practice problem solving skills using Python programming.

An introduction to programming in MATLAB and simulation of physical systems.

An introduction to Operating Systems for programmers. Includes material from operating systems, networks, databases, and embedded systems, but it emphasizes the topics programmers need to know.

An introduction to Python programming for beginners. It starts with basic concepts of programming, and is carefully designed to define all terms when they are first used and to develop each new concept in a logical progression.

This textbook is intended for introductory statistics courses being taken by students at two– and four–year colleges who are majoring in fields other than math or engineering. Intermediate algebra is the only prerequisite. The book focuses on applications of statistical knowledge rather than the theory behind it.

This book is meant to be a textbook for a standard one-semester introductory statistics course for general education students.

Introduces students to the discipline of statistics as a science of understanding and analyzing data. Students learn how to collect data, how to analyze data, and how to use data to make inferences and conclusions about real world phenomena.

Follows scope and sequence requirements of a one-semester introduction to statistics course and is geared toward students majoring in fields other than math or engineering. The text assumes some knowledge of intermediate algebra and focuses on statistics application over theory.
