Out of all the ways for young people to learn coding, You Can Code will be the most welcoming, relevant, and fun. Created and authored by best-selling educator Ben Forta, it introduces every basic concept step by step, using projects of gradually increasing complexity. Designed for anyone age 10-17 (or thereabouts), this glossy full-color guide is packed with welcoming images, and powerfully engaging brief text that's extremely easy to understand. All code listings are in full color, with shading to reveal incremental changes, and QR links to short videos with more explanation and examples. Forta teaches with Python, one of today's most powerful and intuitive languages--and every project is a game, covering multiple popular genres. You Can Code makes programming exciting and rewarding, as it prepares a new generation to take their next steps forward--in education, careers, or both.

Discover a fresh approach for designing more efficient and cooperative wireless communications networks with this systematic guide. Covering everything from fundamental theory to current research topics, leading researchers describe a new, network-aware coding strategy that exploits the signal interactions that occur in dense wireless networks directly at the waveform level. Using an easy-to-follow, layered structure, this unique text begins with a gentle introduction for those new to the subject, before moving on to explain key information-theoretic principles and establish a consistent framework for wireless physical layer network coding (WPNC) strategies. It provides a detailed treatment of Network Coded Modulation, covers a range of WPNC techniques such as Noisy Network Coding, Compute and Forward, and Hierarchical Decode and Forward, and explains how WPNC can be applied to parametric fading channels, frequency selective channels, and complex stochastic networks. This is essential
