Book Description
Python, one of the world's most popular programming languages, has a number of powerful packages to help you tackle complex mathematical problems in a simple and efficient way. These core capabilities help programmers pave the way for building exciting applications in various domains, such as machine learning and data science, using knowledge in the computational mathematics domain.
The book teaches you how to solve problems faced in a wide variety of mathematical fields, including calculus, probability, statistics and data science, graph theory, optimization, and geometry. You'll start by developing core skills and learning about packages covered in Python's scientific stack, including NumPy, SciPy, and Matplotlib. As you advance, you'll get to grips with more advanced topics of calculus, probability, and networks (graph theory). After you gain a solid understanding of these topics, you'll discover Python's applications in data science and statistics, forecasting, geometry, and optimization. The final chapters will take you through a collection of miscellaneous problems, including working with specific data formats and accelerating code.
By the end of this book, you'll have an arsenal of practical coding solutions that can be used and modified to solve a wide range of practical problems in computational mathematics and data science.

Описание: Excel 2019 for Social Work Statistics: A Guide to Solving Practical Problems capitalizes on these improvements by teaching students and managers how to apply Excel to statistical techniques necessary in their courses and work.
Newly revised for Excel 2019, this text is a step-by-step guide for students taking a first course in statistics for advertising and for advertising managers and practitioners who want to learn how to use Excel to solve practical statistics problems in the workplace, whether or not they have taken a course in statistics.
Excel 2019 for Advertising Statistics explains statistical formulas and offers practical examples for how students can solve real-world advertising statistics problems. Each chapter offers a concise overview of a topic, and then demonstrates how to use Excel commands and formulas to solve specific advertising statistics problems. This book demonstrates how to use Excel 2019 in two different ways: (1) writing formulas (e.g., confidence interval about the mean, one-group t-test, two-group t-test, correlation) and (2) using Excel's drop-down formula menus (e.g., simple linear regression, multiple correlation and multiple regression, and one-way ANOVA). Three practice problems are provided at the end of each chapter, along with their solutions in an appendix. An additional practice test allows readers to test their understanding of each chapter by attempting to solve a specific practical advertising statistics problem using Excel; the solution to each of these problems is also given in an appendix. This latest edition features a wealth of new end-of-chapter problems and an update of the chapter content throughout.
Описание: Do you have difficulty solving conflicts and problems at work and in your daily life? Do you find it difficult to interact with people in professional and personal settings?
If you're a person who struggles with good communication, and you are not able to listen to the people around you, then reaching mutual understanding in your relationships will prove quite difficult.
Professional relationships are one of the most common types of relationships that people struggle with. When you put more than one person into a room, there can be conflict. Expect it and be ready for it. If you find that two or more members of your team disagree on something, you need to resolve it because this will hold up results. You need to decide on how to deal with the situation.
To adequately arrive at the best decisions, you need an important skill called critical thinking.
In this book, you will learn:
- How to apply the critical thinking process - the key to settling on profitable choices in the work environment, school, home, and so forth.
- The best decision-making and problem-solving methods that will allow you to think as fast as possible without letting these processes slow you down.
- One of the best skills in your life that you will ever create: How to control your emotions - your feelings can hijack your thinking, which could have a powerful impact on your reactions.
- How to set you and your team up for successful and effective conflict resolution.
- Observe your thoughts and feelings and explain these to other people. Being unable to or ineffective at this can lead to miscommunications or misunderstandings in your relationships.
- The power of empathic listening - how to improve your listening skills by putting yourself in their shoes of the other person in order to understand them accurately.
... And much more
In so many situations around you, the ability to think critically is necessary, from how likely you are to succeed in a job to how likely you are to have a happy and successful relationship.
Strong critical thinkers are more effective in life. They can approach situations in ways that make more sense and can be defended logically. They are less prone to being caught into behaving in ways that are impulsive or incorrect, and because of that, you must learn to be a critical thinker.
