Book Description
This practical introduction to the techniques needed to produce high-quality mathematical illustrations is suitable for anyone with basic knowledge of coordinate geometry. Bill Casselman combines a completely self-contained step-by-step introduction to the graphics programming language PostScript with an analysis of the requirements of good mathematical illustrations. The many small simple graphics projects can also be used in courses in geometry, graphics, or general mathematics. Code for many of the illustrations is included, and can be downloaded from the book's web site: www.math.ubc.ca/~cass/graphics/manualMathematicians; scientists, engineers, and even graphic designers seeking help in creating technical illustrations need look no further.

Book Description Whether you are a new or experienced .NET programmer, this book offers data management methods that you might frequently miss in the rush to complete projects on time. Author Deborah Kurata writes a handy, complete guide to lead you through hidden features and tricks buried within Visual Studio. The book focuses on daily code management, rather than deep .NET framework discussions. Kurata concentrates on efficiencies, presentation, controls, data management methods, and day-to-day code snags. So if you’ve developed inefficient habits or have been fighting the development environment, you will, mercifully, save hours in the team development cycle by putting the book's tips into practice. Customer Reviews:
Apart from its name, it's generally a good book for beginers and average book for mid-level devs and skim through for seniors in case they won't know how to store code snippets in toolbox. I liked the improving unit testing and defensive development sections along with much ADO and hidden tricks in VS.NET. The Apress roadmap explains the intended audience and its a good match but generally, I'd recommend Coder to Developer for this particular genre of IDE/Process learning.
What's really funny is that, at the end of the book, the author declares that if you said "I didn't know that" at least once while reading her book, then the book "met its objective of revealing the best kept secrets in .NET." That self-congratulatory statement is so illogical and false I don't know whether to laugh or cry. Literally 90% (I made careful marks of the content that was at least slightly informative to me) of the book's "secrets" are extremely basic, tepid, well-known practices.
Deborah Kurata APress 2004 ISBN: 1-59059-426-6 Reviewed by Steven Mullins, HuNTUG member "The Secrets to improve your productivity and code quality" well that was about the gist of it. For those of us that are just getting into the writing of code and scripting this may give you a few clues on how to tweak while you write. I have only just started to learn how to compose code and this is what I needed to learn a little bit more. The author speaks well and gives plenty of examples in both VB and C# to keep even the beginner up to speed. I always want real world scenario when I read technical literature to help it all sink in. So down to the dirty, the book starts with the basics how to hot key and toggle between different screens where all the tools are stored and how to get to the tools and your data quickly. This is basics but for those who are still feeling our way through the interface it's nice to learn how to lock all that down. The keyboard shortcuts are here to, nice to have handy during setup. Getting deeper into it, the layout and cleaning of the interface was a nice thing to add in, I know I am not the cleanest builder of pages and have very little graphics skills. The biggest thing that I found here was the operator listings, another good reference for beginners. Chapter four covered a lot of area on getting your database into shape and configured for use but was pretty straight forward in how to get your data into your project. Chapter five was listed as defensive deployment which I learned that means how to clean it up and get your code right. There was very little "security" at least in my facet of it, I expect for security to talk on how to lock it down and deny access to users. There was a really good explanation of hashing and salting but that is where it left off. After all that being said let me say for a quick read and reference book this is one that I would put on a student readers list just for all the shortcuts and hotkeys. The author has a good flow to writing keeping it from being a solitary technical book. It was a good read for me and I would consider it a good find to add to a desktop library.
