One months ago, I was asked what is functional programming? Although familiar with some of the concept of functional programming, the Little Schemer bought from Canada six months ago also read the previous chapters, that day is not able to answer what is functional programming. Functional programming is a strange field for programmers familiar with procedural programming, and concepts such as closures (closure), continuations (continuation), and currying are a nightmare for programmers with procedural programming. Without u ...

People will expect you to give up some of the real work, such as programming, as your age increases and your personal conditions are limited. 　　Move to a bigger task, such as managing a team or raising money. This is true in academia, where the "real professor" decides the details, leaving only the "things in the direction". In other words, the organization faces vertical collaboration: Top managers manage some (cheaper) employees in a parallel structure. In research institutions, senior scientists put forward ideas, and the task of junior scientists is to achieve these ideas. Over time, advanced science ...

Do we need a new programming language? You may not think you need it, but if you go to the latest trends, you may change your mind. Why does Google use go and dart two programming languages? Why do IBM, Cray, and Red hat create the three languages of X10, Chapel, and Ceylon, respectively? In the future, are these 10 programming languages (DART, Ceylon, go, F #, OPA, Fantom, Zimbu, X10, Haxe, Chapel) able to shake it. The new programming language is ...

Normally do we need a new programming language? You might think we do not need it. But if you understand the recent trends, your ideas may change. Why did Google use both GO and DART programming languages? Why did IBM, Cray and Red Hat create X10, Chapel and Ceylon respectively? In the future, these 10 programming languages ​​(DART, Ceylon, GO, F # OPA, Fantom, Zimb ...

This article will explain why thread based programming is not the best way to implement application parallelism in a multi-core era. Moore's Law (Moore 1965 predicts that the number of components per integrated circuit doubles every 18-24 months) is still applicable, and its applicability is expected to continue into 2015-2020 years. Before 2005, the CPU clock rate also increased synchronously, which was enough to improve the performance of all applications executing on those CPUs. Http://www.aliyun.co ...

Why create a Julia programming language? In a word, because we thirst for knowledge, constant pursuit. We have the core users of MATLAB, there are good at Lisp hackers, Pythonistas and rubyists experts also have a lot; In addition, there are some Perl Daniel, some developers used Mathematica before we had a little understanding of the fur. In other words, they understand more than just the fur, more than others, the development of R language. and C language for us is a deserted island. I ...

Introduction: This article explores the development of the Julia Language and its new features. The author thinks that the birth of a new language is bound to set off a new whirlwind, developers in the enjoyment of it to bring fun while also arguing for its existence value, whether Julia can bring new gospel to developers? Let's go into it together: Why create the Julia programming language? In a word, because we thirst for knowledge, constant pursuit. We have the core users of MATLAB, there are good at Lisp hackers, Pythonistas and Ru ...

On the afternoon of March 2, the founder and CEO of Innovation Factory, Kai-Fu Lee, published a keynote speech on the digital revolution and entrepreneurial wave at the Science and Technology Innovation Forum held by the science and technology daily. This is the first public keynote speech since Lee's return to Beijing. In September 2013, Innovation Factory announced the news that Lee was suffering from lymphatic cancer, and in 1.5 of the time, he was treated in Taipei to fight the disease. The return of the disease has caused great concern and welcome in the tech Circle. In his speech, he described the impact of the digital revolution and the practice of innovative workshops to analyze the current status and trends of Chinese science and technology entrepreneurship. ...
