Book Description
 
Performance matters! Users hate to use programs that are not responsive to interactions or run too slow to be useful. While becoming a programmer is simple enough, you require dedication and hard work to achieve an advanced level of programming proficiency where you know how to write fast code.
 
This book begins by helping you explore algorithms and algorithmic complexity and continues by describing tools that can help you find slow parts of your code. Subsequent chapters will provide you with practical ideas about optimizing code by doing less work or doing it in a smarter way. The book also teaches you how to use optimized data structures from the Spring4D library, along with exploring data structures that are not part of the standard Delphi runtime library.
 
The second part of the book talks about parallel programming. You’ll learn about the problems that only occur in multithreaded code and explore various approaches to fixing them effectively. The concluding chapters provide instructions on writing parallel code in different ways – by using basic threading support or focusing on advanced concepts such as tasks and parallel patterns.
 
By the end of this book, you’ll have learned to look at your programs from a totally different perspective and will be equipped to effortlessly make your code faster than it is now.
 
What you will learn
 
Get to grips with algorithmic complexity and learn how to recognize it
 
Use tools to determine program runtime behavior
 
Speed up programs by doing less instead of more
 
Discover the internal workings of Delphi data structures
 
Gain an understanding of Delphi’s memory manager
 
Find out how to write low-level parallel programs with TThread
 
Use parallel patterns from the PPL and OTL libraries to write fast code
 
Include external code, written in C or C++, in Delphi programs
 
Who this book is for
 
This book is for all Delphi programmers. Whether you’re a beginner or an accomplished programmer, you will find something interesting. Even though the focus is on the latest Delphi release, the code uses only standard Delphi syntax without syntactic additions from the latest releases, and most of it should compile and run in any Delphi from XE7 onward. If you’re using an older version of Delphi, don’t despair! Most of the concepts in this book do not depend on a specific Delphi version and will be useful for everyone.

    Gravity is at once familiar and mysterious. It's the reason for the numbers on your bathroom scale, the intricate dance of the stars and planets, and the evolution and eventual fate of the universe. In Crush, James Riordon takes listeners on a tour of gravity from its vanishing insignificance on the microscopic scale to its crushing extreme inside black holes.From the moment we lift our heads as infants until the moment we lie down and ultimately surrender to its pull at the end of our lives, we labor under the burden of gravity. It has guided the shape and structure of our bodies over eons of evolution and sculpted the Earth as it cooled from a blob of molten rock. As Riordon explains, the stars couldn't shine without gravity holding them together. Even the atoms that make up you and everything around you were forged in stellar furnaces that gravity built. It took Einstein to realize that gravity is not, in fact, a force at all, but instead the curvature of space and time.A fascinating and memorable listen, Crush examines our personal relationships with gravity; explores gravity's role in making the universe uniquely hospitable for life; and even reveals how the mundane flow of water in your kitchen sink offers a glimpse into the secrets of black holes.
