SynopsisGet started with Julia for engineering and numerical computing, especially data science, machine learning, and scientific computing applications. This book explains how Julia provides the functionality, ease-of-use and intuitive syntax of R, Python, MATLAB, SAS, or Stata combined with the speed, capacity, and performance of C, C++, or Java. You'll learn the OOP principles required to get you started, then how to do basic mathematics with Julia. Other core functionality of Julia that you'll cover, includes working with complex numbers, rational and irrational numbers, rings, and fields. Beginning Julia Programming takes you beyond these basics to harness Julia's powerful features for mathematical functions in Julia, arrays for matrix operations, plotting, and more. Along the way, you also learn how to manage strings, write functions, work with control flows, and carry out I/O to implement and leverage the mathematics needed for your data scienceand analysis projects. "Julia walks like Python and runs like C". This phrase explains why Julia is quickly growing as the most favored option for data analytics and numerical computation. After reading and using this book, you'll have the essential knowledge and skills to build your first Julia-based application. What You'll Learn Obtain core skills in Julia Apply Julia in engineering and science applications Work with mathematical functions in Julia Use arrays, strings, functions, control flow, and I/O in Julia Carry out plotting and display basic graphics Who This Book Is For Those who are new to Julia; experienced users may also find this helpful as a reference., Obtain core skills in JuliaLearn to apply Julia in engineering and science applicationsMaster the use of arrays, strings, functions, control flow, and I/O in Julia, Get started with Julia for engineering and numerical computing, especially data science, machine learning, and scientific computing applications.

  • Julia has minimal error trapping - this book is excellent but has no useful fixes that flaw (in Julia).

    A good & in depth rendering of the parts of Julia as used for on-the-fly work (self directed). Seems devoid of any start to finish generalized program examples (say one that loads images to maintain a log and add commentary, or a program that looks for gender bias in text, or making an interface that allows multiple users to build a single data base. Acts like a speed car with rollover bars but no body, no bumpers, no back seat... A high end person wants a nasty algorithm to run fast and give answers NOW! But I see nothing on error trapping. THAT is a fatal flaw in any language. Maybe it is in Julia but I don't see TRAP HANDLE GO-ON in any form in the book. eg: 'Try catch end' a so-so error solution. So problem is more Julia than the book. Overall for syntax - for stuff Engineers do - very good.
