The Julia Language Handbook

The Julia Language Handbook

If you are new to Julia and want a reference that describes how to install and use Julia, this is the book you want. Many of the other Julia books available describe previous versions with examples that no longer work. The “Julia Handbook” is current as of Julia v1.02 and every example, of which there are dozens, has been tested and they all work.You will learn how to install and use the Julia REPL mode and the Jupyter Notebook mode to create and test your code. Other topics include:Data TypesFunctions and PackagesTuplesData ArraysData FramesData StructuresFlow ControlLoops and IterationInput / Output - formatted printing - writing and reading data filesLine and Scatter PlotsOther Plot TypesRandom NumbersOptimization Using Optim and JuMPThis is the book I wanted to buy when I started learning Julia but I had to write it myself to get all of the detail and up-to-date information I wanted. If you are just learning Julia you will find this to be a useful guide. If you are already using Julia you will find this to be an excellent reference book to remind you of some obscure Julia syntax.
