JavaScript & jQuery, by David Sawyer McFarland Excellent book, McFarland a most suitable author, and O'Reilly a great publisher. O'Reilly really did change the nature of computer books when they started. Deals with the Ajax system too, requesting BSON's directly from the server. We don't have that much else which runs client side. And this did not start with Sun Microsystems and it originally had nothing to do with Java. In hand now!

    ^^^^^^^ So many characters which could have been used for good posts and threads. Earlier Thread: [view link] [view link] JavaScript & jQuery, by David Sawyer McFarland So this is a really good book. Lots of pages, thin paper, but very easy to read. Great intro book. Read through the stuff about the language itself. Arrays can have mixed types of variables in them. You can have nested arrays. And you can add or subtract members off of either end. To me this suggests that arrays are being handled more like linked lists, internally. Slower and more memory. In most languages you cannot do things like this. But if you wrote a module in an object oriented language you could make something to allow this. What I am not seeing are pointers, objects, classes, structures, methods. I think JavaScript has these, but I do not really know. So browsers IE, Mozilla, Chrome, Safari, they all have control panels to show errors, HTML, CSS, JavaScript. So 'node.js', something like this is to make JavaScript run server side. Ready to read now about the library JQuery. But want to look for more about JavaScript. Don't have that much for client side. ClojureScript compiles to JavaScript. And there is Java for client side, I think called Applets. But not many seem to use this, security often set to block it. MongoDB and CouchDB can run full JavaScript Stack, meaning data requests coming directly from JavaScript client side. mention of 'Notepad++' for windows.

    So, ClojureScript compiles into JavaScript? [view link] [view link] "ClojureScript seeks to address the weak link in the client/embedded application development story by replacing JavaScript with Clojure, a robust, concise and powerful programming language. In its implementation, ClojureScript adopts the strategy of the Google Closure library and compiler, and is able to effectively leverage both tools, gaining a large, production-quality library and whole-program optimization. ClojureScript brings the rich data structure set, functional programming, macros, reader, destructuring, polymorphism constructs, state discipline and many other features of Clojure to every place JavaScript reaches."

Dyson. (1999) Saturday I reported on a man who had vanished from a 49er's stadium game the previous Monday. Saturday they found a body in the water near the old unused Alviso Marina and some old concrete boat ramps. The stuff is unused because silt comes in from the bay and fills it up. I have years ago explored all around there. It is interesting, but even in the day time potentially dangerous. I once got stuck hip deep in mud and a shoe came off. Getting my foot back into the shoe I was able to recover it. But I was taking more risks in doing so. This man was in the military, maybe Special Forces. So likely he handles himself quite well in the outdoors, even at night. Not sure if any conclusions have been reached, but to me it sounds more and more like a suicide. Left his cell phone, battery run down to zero, in his car at the stadium. Also left his girl friend and her two kids there. But talking on the phone and using video up until the point he vanished. [view link] [view link] Here SJPD say that the body was found floating face down about 1 mile out from the Marina and the Ramps. [view link] [view link] I believe that police probably have more tidbits of information which they are not going to disclose until they are ready to close the case. In a homicide it is usually those closest to the deceased who did it, and they are exposed by the contradictions in their stories. To me, this is sounding more and more like a suicide. Here it sound like he was found at the boat launch, though those concrete ramps are unusable do to silt.

    So I've got in hand now: JavaScript Programming: Pushing the Limits, by Jon Raasch (2013) and based in Portland Oregon. This book is not that big, but it is packed with critical information. This book gets way way out there. Hard for me to record more than just a small percentage of it, but I will be trying as I keep returning to this book. Jon Raasch's blog [view link] So he talks much about using JQuery, and how you can also get it from a Universal CDN (Content Delivery Network), like Google's [view link] When you put it into your HTML, he suggests just starting with the '//', leaving the 'http:' off, incase some of these are instead "file' protocol This example is off of the google site: '<script src="[view link] ' [view link] the we also have: [view link] Raasch also likes Zepto, but it does not support Internet Explorer. Raasch is also into mobile devices and keeping code size down. Remember I had talked about VRML ( Virtual Reality Modelling Language) and how that got turned into some 3DX? Well Raasch has got lots of other stuff in play. So there is WebGL and the canvas tag. And then CSS3, for 3d. Then there is SVG. and then Raphael.js He recommends preprocessing your CSS. He endorses SASS, which I have posted about before. He mentions Stylus. But the one he really seems to like is LESS. Sounds like with LESS you can decide if it only works at development side, or if it is for every download and if it can be client or server. And of course Raasch is talking all about server side JavaScript and node.js, and he talks about MongoDB too. Likes anything fullstack JavaScript.

    So finishing, for now, with: JavaScript Programming: Pushing the Limits, by Jon Raasch (2013) and based in Portland Oregon. This book is not that big, but it is packed with critical information. This book gets way way out there. This Jon Raasch clearly knows his stuff, and it must change frequently. The book covers so much terrain that to actually do the things he is describing one would have to avail themselves of the vast amount of online info he provides links to. He makes much of 'backbone.js' and then of this WebSockets. The first seems like it is probably something which provides concurency and functional programming, though he does not say that. It is interesting and I could see the value of it. But I have not used anything like that. WebSockets provides two way communications between client and server, without polling. This Raasch is clearly focused on client centered JavaScript applications, and then also on server side JavaScript. Never says anything about ClojureScript, but does make minor reference to a Closure Library. Never mentions CoffeeScript or anything else to replace JavaScript, just lots and lots of libraries. I will be returning to this and some other JavaScript books often. SJG BAKER GURVITZ ARMY - Live 1975 [view link]

    JavaScript & jQuery, by David Sawyer McFarland, real good book. If you are going to be using JavaScript, this is only one of the books you need to have on your shelf. This time I made it through the first 6 chapters. I will be returning to it. The O'Reilly Missing Manual Series is real good. So there is the jQuery library. And then I guess UI = User Interface. There is jQuery UI. There is in each of the browsers a JavaScript Console, for help in debugging. So they also mention the Yahoo! User Interface Library. THe Dojo Toolkit. Mootools, great for animation and visual effects. And Backbone.js, and Raphaeljs. And they endorse CDN's ( Content Distribution Networks ) So your clients can get their feed from these, instead of just from your own server. There are Google and jQuery CDN's. And then events, like Mouse Events, JavaScript handles these. There is not a lot to evaluate here. It's just a matter of learning to use it.

    Shailynn's UK relatives don't want to stay in the UK anymore. Things have changed. For one thing Tony Blair poured money into their national healthcare, fixing up any deficiencies. So in light of such, insulting immigrants and minorities doesn't really have any currency. And then as Brexit is a done deal, what currency their may have been in scapegoating immigrants and minorities is gone. So when Shailynn's mom is driving him from Longview to El Paso, or from Beaumont to Amarillo, legs that take 14 hours, Shailynn does use his cell phone. He uses it to post on TUSCL, and he also texts his UK relatives. He shows them that in the Great State of Texas you still can insult immigrants and minorities, and especially L-I-B-E-R-A-L-S. You can blame them for all of your own short comings. Shailynn, still a junior in high school, demonstrates this. So his UK relatives have decided, they are emigrating to Texas. *********************************** document keydown [view link] SJG

    Everyone thought that Shailynn's career with the West Texas Christian Glee Club would have been over years ago. But by making him wear a vulcanized rubber jock strap with Kevlar belting, Shailynn's mom has stopped his voice from changing. And this is how she was able to have their pastor get him the full scholarship to Bob Jones in Greensville South Carolina. *********************** This multipage tutorial is really good: [view link] SJG clean solid body electric, and the broken chords like only a guitar can do so easily; the opening riff explains it all: Drive My Car (The Beatles Cover) - MonaLisa Twins (Live at the Cavern Club)

    Make: Making Things Smart by Gordon Williams (2017) [view link] Maker Media, San Francisco CA Make Magazine [view link] [view link] JavaScript for Microcontrollers [view link] Uses a real small board with a 32 bit ARM processor and an integral USB male connector on the green glass. ARM = Advanced RISC Machines, in 2015 licensed 15 billion ARM cores. Many modern interpreters use JIT (Just in Time Compilation) Google's V8 interpreter is an exception, it always compiles your code. Espruino Pico has a stand alone virtual COM port. You can get VT100-style terminal emulation screen for MAC, or PuTTY for Windows. But WEB IDE can do a lot more. So you use Web IDE ES6 is a verion of Java used here. JavaScript allows functions to be defined within other functions. And you can also have inline functions which are unnamed ( like Lambda's). setTimeout lets you set something to go off a future time, like say 2 seconds. Done in milliseconds. JavaScript uses functions heavily because it is event based. So you don't need to have your code run in one big loop. * This book is better than expected. SJG

    ^^ Good! Written using the newest JavaScript, ES6, and known as "Harmony". But in 2016 what was more often used was ES5. For a comprehensive Java Script book on paper: David Flanagan's JavaScript: The Definitive Guide JavaScript The Definitive Guide : Master the World's Most-used Programming Language + otherwise just use the online Mozilla Docs SJG

    JavaScript The Definitive Guide by David Flanagan O'Reilly 7th ed After Mozilla online this is the definitive source. Everything you could want about object orientation and metaprogramming. Page 507 is about the Audio API, the Audio() constructor and the Audio Tag in HTML. But this is only about 1 1/2 pages and they say that it can by like an audio synth. It is very far from complete, very far, and they reference no other books. SJG Vanilla Fudge "You Keep Me Hanging On" Live on Jimmy Fallon [view link]

    Object Oriented Programming is essential. In my view, most all of the Functional Programming books are completely disingenuous by not saying much they still depend on Object Oriented Programming.

    So JavaScript has the rather unusual "with" statement And it has the "onerror" event.  Usually you will invoke the event by setting onerror = to your error handling function. And it has try...catch And it has the ternary operator ? and : SJG

    Yes, this book is what I was hoping for. It goes way beyond the other books I have seen. JavaScript can be event driven, you need this to be interactive. The other sources were not really explaining all the ins and outs. This book is a little harder to follow because it tells it just like it is in full technical detail. Not just a language, but an interactive programming environment with some degree of multi-tasking. Comprehending this will take time.

    JavaScript The Definitive Guide by David Flanagan O'Reilly 7th ed Used to cover the entire JavaScript API in this book. But not now. Need to go to Mozilla online. So looking at how this works in the browser, because this is what is important. We have things which are async and which are event driven. And we can have Worker Threads and Messaging. THis is promising, could get a full Actors Concurrency running there. fetch() is a sync. Sounds real good, and need to learn all of this well. SJG

    Web Assembly [view link] so you can with some compilers for C, C++, and Rust, compile to a bytecode and then attach this to the browser. It is not the same as native code, but it still protects the Browser Sandbox and Secuirty. Interesting. Don't know if the users have veto power over this. Must to learn. Overall, the JavaScript Worker Threads looks real interesting and real promising for what you could do with it. Need to further explore everything that is in the books via Mozzilla D N.

    So I got something in JavaScript going using setInterval and writing into a style# and all. But I don't fully understand it, copied it out of a book. Its the actually running, dynamic, stuff in background that I need to much better understand. Fiddled with it some.
