Improve Your Python Code with Modern Object-Oriented Design Patterns

To write clean, efficient, maintainable code, developers everywhere turn to design patterns. Now there's a Python-specific patterns guide that's friendly and practical enough for every Python developer, regardless of experience.

Best-selling patterns author James W. Cooper presents visual, example-driven explanations of 23 proven patterns for writing superior object-oriented code. Through clear and intuitive code samples, he introduces modern techniques for creating Python objects that interact effectively in powerful, flexible programs. Python newcomers--including those moving from other languages--will find a succinct introduction designed to get them up to speed fast.

Cooper's wide-ranging patterns coverage addresses abstract classes, multiple inheritance, GUI programming and widgets, graphical classes, drawing and plotting, math, databases, Python decorators, images, threads, iterators, creating executable code, and more. Throughout, his informal visual presentation makes patterns far easier to work with--so you can confidently build sophisticated programs that use Python's rich capabilities.

River Flow 2024 features keynote lectures and contributed papers presented at the 12th International Conference on Fluvial Hydraulics, held from September 2nd to 6th, 2024, in Liverpool.

River Flow 2024 provides an overview of the latest experimental, theoretical, and computational findings on fundamental river flow and transport processes, river morphology, and morphodynamics. It also addresses the impacts of hydraulic structures on flow regimes, river morphology, and ecology; sustainable river engineering practices, including stream restoration and re-naturalization; and the effects of climate change, including extreme flood events. Additionally, the conference covers topics such as sediment, pollutant, and microplastic dynamics in rivers; fluid mechanics, numerical modelling, and two-phase flow; monitoring techniques and artificial intelligence; and natural flood management, vegetation, wood, and river restoration.

River Flow 2024 aims to present ongoing and the state-of-the-art in river research and engineering, targeting academics and practitioners in hydraulics, hydrology, and environmental engineering. Organized under the auspices of the Committee on Fluvial Hydraulics of the International Association for Hydro-Environment Engineering and Research (IAHR), the River Flow conference series has gained international recognition as one of the most reputable events in the fluvial hydraulics community, attracting a large and loyal audience of river researchers and engineers. Thanks to the Stephen E. Coleman Award for the best research paper from a young academic and for its mission focused towards promoting knowledge transfer and idea exchange, it has also become a point of reference for the early career researcher and younger academics, with the master classes at the centre of it. The 12th edition also featured the “Networking and Mentoring Event: Embracing Gender Equity and Diversity” to enable all the member of the community to maximise their opportunity withing the sector.
