The Art of Randomness: Randomized Algorithms in the Real World (Kneusel Ronald T.)(Paperback)

Harness the power of randomness (and Python code) to solve real-world problems in fun, hands-on experiments--from simulating evolution to encrypting messages to making machine-learning algorithms! The Art of Randomness is a hands-on guide to mastering the many ways you can use randomized algorithms to solve real programming and scientific problems. You'll learn how to use randomness to run simulations, hide information, design experiments, and even create art and music. All you need is some Python, basic high school math, and a roll of the dice. Author Ronald T. Kneusel focuses on helping you build your intuition so that you'll know when and how to use random processes to get things done. You'll develop a randomness engine (a Python class that supplies random values from your chosen source), then explore how to leverage randomness to: Simulate Darwinian
