Financial Modelling in Python, Fletcher S., Gardner C., 2009.

Фрагмент из книги.
We contend that the Python programming language is particularly suited to quantitative analysts/programmers working in the fiel of financia engineering. This assertion centres on two axes: the first Python’s expressiveness and high-level nature; the second, Python’s extensibility and interoperability with other programming languages. Other (arguably not so,) minor arguments to be made for Python programming in general, are the benefit to be had from the use of Python’s wealth of standard libraries (‘Python comes with batteries included’) and Python’s support for functional programming idioms.

Автор: O’Connor J.D., Fletcher C.

1989.

Курс по произношению для студентов уровня intermediate.
In this pronunciation course for intermediate students of English, each unit provides intensive practice in stress and intonation of particular sound contrasts. Designed for students working alone as well as for classroom use it provides an intonation list and language chart to help students work out their particular area of difficulty and plan their programme. The book aims to integrate the practice of intonation patterns with sounds and to use realistic texts and conversations for the practice material. A spelling box in each unit shows how the sounds can be spelled and a key to the listening tasks is included at the back of the book.
