Julia as a Second Language eBook for free
pBook available Mar 29, 2023
ePub + Kindle available May 2, 2023
Helped kickstart my use of Julia for serious projects. It’s a solid review of the core language features that doesn’t get bogged down on programming fundamentals you already know.
Look inside
Learn the awesome Julia programming language by building fun projects like a rocket launcher, a password keeper, and a battle simulator.
Julia as a Second Language covers:
Julia as a Second Language introduces Julia to readers with a beginning-level knowledge of another language like Python or JavaScript. You’ll learn by coding engaging hands-on projects that encourage you to apply what you’re learning immediately. Don’t be put off by Julia’s reputation as a scientific programming language—there’s no data science or numerical computing knowledge required. You can get started with what you learned in high school math classes.
Julia as a Second Language covers:
- Data types like numbers, strings, arrays, and dictionaries
- Immediate feedback with Julia’s read-evaluate-print-loop (REPL)
- Simplify code interactions with multiple dispatch
- Sharing code using modules and packages
- Object-oriented and functional programming styles

about the technology
Originally designed for high-performance data science, Julia has become an awesome general purpose programming language. It offers developer-friendly features like garbage collection, dynamic typing, and a flexible approach to concurrency and distributed computing. It is the perfect mix of simplicity, flexibility and performance.about the book
Julia as a Second Language introduces Julia by building on your existing programming knowledge. You’ll see Julia in action as you create a series of interesting projects that guide you from Julia’s basic syntax through its advanced features. Master types and data structures as you model a rocket launch. Use dictionaries to interpret Roman numerals. Use Julia’s unique multiple dispatch feature to send knights and archers into a simulated battle. Along the way, you’ll even compare the object-oriented and functional programming styles–Julia supports both!what's inside
