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.

Forest: Walking among trees

Matt Collins

Forest celebrates the diverse ways in which trees and forests are as magnificent, economically relevant and profoundly enchanting today as they ever have been.
Journeying across the continents, Matt Collins and Roo Lewis tie together both the historical context and modern-day applications of some of the world's most fascinating and iconic trees.
Forest is a celebration of the diverse ways in which trees and forests are as magnificent, economically relevant and profoundly enchanting today as they ever have been.
Journeying across the continents, writer Matt Collins and photographer Roo Lewis tie together both the historical context and modern-day applications of some of the world's most fascinating and iconic trees. They explore the heritage of woodlands from around the world and meet those whose lives are inexplicably bound to them.
The book is divided into 10 main chapters, each of which explores a tree from a particular genus – Pine, Juniper, Oak, Hornbeam, Cherry, Beech, Birch, Chestnut, Douglas-fir and Poplar. Each chapter provides the reader with a short introduction to the tree, followed by a journalistic account of its relevance to modern day-life (from gin making on Isle of Islay to a truffle farm in Spain), and concludes with an account of the tree in its native forest (from hornbeams in the Ironwoods of Ontario to firs on Vancouver Island).
Captured on medium-format film, Roo’s stunning, rich colour images are the perfect companion to Matt’s engaging storytelling and botanical knowledge. Forest crafts a captivating interpretation of the story of the forest through the trees.
Matt Collins Forest is a non-fiction exploration of conservation, botany, and the protection of our ecosystems. Pre-order this up-coming book to learn about the latest themes and subjects in earth sciences and geography.
For fans of Fiona Danks (Run Wild!), Jo Schofield (Go Wild!), and Bear Grylls (Soul Fuel).

Theoretical Physics - Exploring...

Mark Hedges

Theoretical physics is the foundation of our understanding of the universe, providing the mathematical framework that describes physical laws and fundamental interactions. Unlike experimental physics, which relies on observation and experimentation, theoretical physics develops models and equations that predict and explain phenomena, often extending beyond what can currently be tested. From Newton’s laws to Einstein’s theories and quantum mechanics, the field has evolved to encompass a vast range of concepts that shape modern science.
Mathematics plays a crucial role in theoretical physics, serving as the language through which physical principles are expressed. Equations such as Newton’s second law, Maxwell’s equations, and Schrödinger’s equation provide precise descriptions of motion, electromagnetism, and quantum mechanics, respectively. The ability to abstractly represent nature through mathematical formalisms allows physicists to derive new predictions and unify disparate concepts. For example, Einstein’s field equations of general relativity describe how mass and energy curve spacetime, leading to predictions of gravitational waves and black holes, both of which were later confirmed through experiments.
A key principle in theoretical physics is symmetry, which governs many of the fundamental laws of nature. Symmetries in physical systems often correspond to conservation laws, a relationship formalized by Noether’s theorem. For instance, the symmetry of time invariance leads to the conservation of energy, while spatial symmetry results in the conservation of momentum.

Chorology - Geographical...

Mike Crawford

Chorology, the study of the geographical distribution of organisms, offers crucial insights into how life is spread across the planet. This scientific discipline examines the patterns, processes, and factors that determine where species occur and why they are found in particular regions. From dense tropical rainforests to arid deserts and remote island ecosystems, chorology helps explain the complex relationships between organisms and their environments. Understanding these distributions is essential not only for ecological research but also for conservation efforts, climate change studies, and predicting future biodiversity trends.
The origins of chorology date back to early explorations and observations of naturalists who noted how plants and animals varied across regions. Over time, with advancements in biology, geography, and technology, chorology has developed into a distinct field of study. It now integrates concepts from ecology, evolution, geology, and climatology to provide a comprehensive understanding of how species disperse, adapt, and thrive in diverse environments. By identifying distribution patterns, chorologists can trace the historical movements of species, understand their evolutionary relationships, and predict how current and future environmental changes might alter these patterns.
One of the fundamental aspects of chorology is recognizing that species distributions are influenced by a combination of environmental, biological, and historical factors. Climate, topography, soil composition, and availability of resources play significant roles in determining where species can survive and reproduce. Additionally, interactions such as competition, predation, and symbiosis shape the presence or absence of species in particular areas.
