What are the prerequisites for learning Go? - Google Groups

What are the prerequisites for learning Go? - Google Groups: "Go, the language, is definitely simpler than Python, the language. It
is true, though, that you can teach a small subset of Python faster
than you can teach the whole Go language."

How Not To Sort By Average Rating

How Not To Sort By Average Rating: "CORRECT SOLUTION: Score = Lower bound of Wilson score confidence interval for a Bernoulli parameter

Say what: We need to balance the proportion of positive ratings with the uncertainty of a small number of observations. Fortunately, the math for this was worked out in 1927 by Edwin B. Wilson. What we want to ask is: Given the ratings I have, there is a 95% chance that the "real" fraction of positive ratings is at least what? Wilson gives the answer. Considering only positive and negative ratings (i.e. not a 5-star scale), the lower bound on the proportion of positive ratings is given by:"

google-styleguide - Style guides for Google-originated open-source projects - Google Project Hosting

google-styleguide - Style guides for Google-originated open-source projects - Google Project Hosting: "Every major open-source project has its own style guide: a set of conventions (sometimes arbitrary) about how to write code for that project. It is much easier to understand a large codebase when all the code in it is in a consistent style.

“Style” covers a lot of ground, from “use camelCase for variable names” to “never use global variables” to “never use exceptions.” This project holds the style guidelines we use for Google code. If you are modifying a project that originated at Google, you may be pointed to this page to see the style guides that apply to that project."

The LUCS-KDD Implementation of the FP-growth algorithm

The LUCS-KDD Implementation of the FP-growth algorithm: "A popular "preprocessing" tree structure is the FP-tree proposed by Han et al. (2000). The FP-tree stores a single item (attribute) at each node, and includes additional links to facilitate processing. These links start from a header table and link together all nodes in the FP-tree which store the same "label", i.e. item.

To illustrate the method, considering the simple data set:"

Exclusive First Look, Word and Trailer for the Short Film Tasha | Horror Movie, DVD, & Book Reviews, News, Interviews at Dread Central

Exclusive First Look, Word and Trailer for the Short Film Tasha | Horror Movie, DVD, & Book Reviews, News, Interviews at Dread Central: "Filmmaker Spencer Estabrooks provided us with an exclusive first look at the trailer for his upcoming zombie short film Tasha, which is set for its world premiere at The Calgary Underground Film Festival on April 18. Read on for a look!

Starring Braliegh James and Jonathan Moxness, Tasha centers around James who portrays the titular character, described as an, ‘ass-kicking, wise-cracking zombie hunter,’ according to the flick’s PR. Filmed last fall in Calgary, Alberta, Canada, Tasha was written by Greg Jaffs and is based on the graphic novel he created with RP Broad, with special effect duties handled by Rocket Punch Studios and visual effects overseen by Solid Green. Karen Pickles produced with financial participation from Bravo!FACT and the Alberta Multimedia Development Fund.

Estabrooks’ previous short, the zombie/western Dead Walkers played Screamfest in 2009 to good notices. His latest Tasha serves as a bit of a teaser to a television series rooted in the latter world which the filmmakers are currently developing."
