The message from educators, the tech community, and even politicians is clear: everyone should learn to code. To emphasize the universality and importance of computer programming, promoters of coding for everyone often invoke the concept of |literacy,| drawing parallels between reading and writing code and reading and writing text. In this book, Annette Vee examines the coding-as-literacy analogy and argues that it can be an apt rhetorical frame. The theoretical tools of literacy help us understand programming beyond a technical level, and in its historical, social, and conceptual contexts. Viewing programming from the perspective of literacy and literacy from the perspective of programming, she argues, shifts our understandings of both. Computer programming becomes part of an array of communication skills important in everyday life, and literacy, augmented by programming, becomes more capacious. Vee examines the ways that programming is linked with literacy in coding literacy campaigns, considering the ideologies that accompany this coupling, and she looks at how both writing and programming encode and distribute information. She explores historical parallels between writing and programming, using the evolution of mass textual literacy to shed light on the trajectory of code from military and government infrastructure to large-scale businesses to personal use. Writing and coding were institutionalized, domesticated, and then established as a basis for literacy. Just as societies demonstrated a |literate mentality| regardless of the literate status of individuals, Vee argues, a |computational mentality| is now emerging even though coding is still a specialized skill.

Enchantress of Numbers pdf/epub/kindle/txt ebooks By:Jennifer Chiaverini Published on 2017-12-05 by Penguin Download New York Times bestselling author Jennifer Chiaverini illuminates the life of Ada Byron King, Countess of Lovelace—Lord Byron’s daughter and the world’s first computer programmer. The only legitimate child of Lord Byron, the most brilliant, revered, and scandalous of the Romantic poets, Ada was destined for fame long before her birth. But her mathematician mother, estranged from Ada's infamous and destructively passionate father, is determined to save her only child from her perilous Byron heritage. Banishing fairy tales and make-believe from the nursery, Ada’s mother provides her daughter with a rigorous education grounded in mathematics and science. Any troubling spark of imagination—or worse yet, passion or poetry—is promptly extinguished. Or so her mother believes. When Ada is introduced into London society as a highly eligible young heiress, she at last discover...

Color in Computer Vision pdf/epub/kindle/txt ebooks By:Theo Gevers,Arjan Gijsenij,Joost van de Weijer,Jan-Mark Geusebroek Published on 2012-08-14 by John Wiley & Sons Download While the field of computer vision drives many of today’s digital technologies and communication networks, the topic of color has emerged only recently in most computer vision applications. One of the most extensive works to date on color in computer vision, this book provides a complete set of tools for working with color in the field of image understanding. Based on the authors’ intense collaboration for more than a decade and drawing on the latest thinking in the field of computer science, the book integrates topics from color science and computer vision, clearly linking theories, techniques, machine learning, and applications. The fundamental basics, sample applications, and downloadable versions of the software and data sets are also included. Clear, thorough, and practical, Color in Computer Vision expl...

Computer-based Robust Engineering pdf/epub/kindle/txt ebooks By:Gen?ichi Taguchi,Rajesh Jugulum,Shin Taguchi Published on 2004-01-01 by ASQ Quality Press Download In modern engineering, it is uncommon to do any activity without the use of computers and information technology. the engineering activity includes design, development and testing of a product, process, technology, software or information system. Use of robust engineering methods in these applications can be extremely useful in enhancing overall performance and cost effectiveness. Thus, robust engineering methods will also play a crucial role in Design for Six Sigma (DFSS) activities in all areas including software and information technology. Until now, there was no book that fully described the use of robust engineering methods in computer applications. This book will be useful not only to DFSS green belts and black belts, but also: engineers, robust engineering practitioners and researchers, R & D personnel, simulation ...
