Review Java Number Cruncher: The Java Programmer's Guide to Numerical Computing (Prentice Hall PTR Oracle Series) / Prentice Hall PTR:This book introduces Java programmers to numerical computing. It contains clear, non-theoretical explanations of practical numerical algorithms, including safely summing numbers, finding roots of equations, interpolation and approximation, numerical integration and differentiation, and matrix operations, including solving sets of simultaneous equations. Many of the programs are applets that take advantage of Java's interactive graphics capabilities. These programs allow the user to interact with them as they dynamically demonstrate the computational algorithms in action. Java Number Cruncher devotes several chapters to searching for patterns in the prime numbers, generating random numbers, intriguing formulas for pi and e, arbitrarily long numbers and their relationship to data encryption, and algorithms for creating fractal images. Working Java programs demonstrate all the concepts from this book.

Review Querying XML, : XQuery, XPath, and SQL/XML in context (The Morgan Kaufmann Series in Data Management Systems) / Morgan Kaufmann:XML has become the lingua franca for representing business data, for exchanging information between business partners and applications, and for adding structure-and sometimes meaning-to text-based documents. XML offers some special challenges and opportunities in the area of search: querying XML can produce very precise, fine-grained results, if you know how to express and execute those queries. For software developers and systems architects: this book teaches the most useful approaches to querying XML documents and repositories. This book will also help managers and project leaders grasp how "querying XML" fits into the larger context of querying and XML. Querying XML provides a comprehensive background from fundamental concepts (What is XML?) to data models (the Infoset, PSVI, XQuery Data Model), to APIs (querying XML from SQL or Java) and more. * Presents the concepts clearly, and demonstrates them with illustrations and examples; offers a thorough mastery of the subject area in a single book. * Provides comprehensive coverage of XML query languages, and the concepts needed to understand them completely (such as the XQuery Data Model). * Shows how to query XML documents and data using: XPath (the XML Path Language); XQuery, soon to be the new W3C Recommendation for querying XML; XQuery's companion XQueryX; and SQL, featuring the SQL/XML * Includes an extensive set of XQuery, XPath, SQL, Java, and other examples, with links to downloadable code and data samples.

Review UNDERSTANDING SQL, A Step by Step Approach / Ani Printing and Publication:This book is for mid level SQL developers who are working in the IT sector. My book uses Transact SQL (T-SQL) that is used for Sybase (or Microsoft SQL server). This book is like a stepping stone for database developers who are starting out trying to learn SQL language especially using transact SQL although I believe anyone who wants to learn SQL can also benefit fro it, although I have used Transact SQL (Sybase or Microsoft SQL Server) to explain the concepts related to relational database model (SQL).

Review Murach's Oracle SQL and PL/SQL (Training & Reference) / Mike Murach & Associates:If you're developing applications that access Oracle databases, you can save time and work by having SQL do more of the data handling for you: This new book shows you how. It teaches you how to create effective SQL queries to extract and update the data in an Oracle database. It teaches you how to design and implement a database, giving you insight into performance and security issues. It teaches you how to use PL/SQL to take advantage of powerful features like stored procedures, functions, and triggers. In short, it teaches you to create the kind of efficient database applications that make you a more effective and valuable developer. Here are 5 of the ways that our book differs from the others#1: You'll see how to take advantage of the Oracle SQL Developer toolSQL Developer is a free tool for working with database objects and SQL statements. Its graphical interface makes it more intuitive and easier to use than older command-line tools like SQL*Plus. I think you ll find it boosts your productivity as you use it to write and run queries, to work with database objects, or to debug stored procedures. #2: You'll start off with how to query a database, not how to design oneThis book is written for application developers, and the first thing an application developer needs to know is how to write queries. So that's what's covered in the first 8 chapters of this book. [+]It starts with simple queries, then moves on to complex inner and outer joins, summary queries, and subqueries that do more of the database processing so that your applications can do less. Once you're comfortable with querying databases, this book shows how to design a database and how to create database tables. Having this background can help you query a database more effectively. And it provides a solid introduction to DBA skills if you're interested in that career path. #3: You get 2 books in 1: A SQL book and a PL/SQL bookPL/SQL allows you to write complex scripts, stored procedures, functions, and triggers, all essential skills for most application developers. So along with SQL, this book covers the PL/SQL that you'll use most of the time; there's no need to buy a second book to learn PL/SQL. #4: Complete applications show you how all the pieces interactOne key to mastering SQL is to have plenty of coding examples that show how the features you re learning work and what problems you may run into as you use them on your own. So this book provides dozens of SQL statements and PL/SQL scripts for various jobs that are routine in business applications. Download the examples for free from our website and use them as starting points for your own SQL routines. #5: The paired-pages format lets you set your own paceDepending on what you already know about Oracle SQL and how fast you want to go, you can read every page and study each example. skim through the headings for topics you don't know. scan through the righthand pages for development details you might have missed in the past. or turn to any two-page spread when you need reference information. The paired-pages format makes it easy and fast for you to use the book the way you want to. (If you aren't familiar with how the paired pages work, please be sure to download a sample chapter from our website).
