Principles of Economics

You’ve bested creepers, traveled deep into caves, and maybe even gone to The End and back—but have you ever transformed a sword into a magic wand? Built a palace in the blink of an eye? Designed your own color-changing disco dance floor? In Learn to Program with Minecraft®, you’ll do all this and more with the power of Python, a free language used by millions of professional and first-time programmers! Begin with some short, simple Python lessons and then use your new skills to modify Minecraft to produce instant and totally awesome results. Learn how to customize Minecraft to make mini-games, duplicate entire buildings, and turn boring blocks into gold. You’ll also write programs that: –Take you on an automated teleportation tour around your Minecraft world –Build massive monuments, pyramids, forests, and more in a snap! –Make secret passageways that open when you activate a hidden switch –Create a spooky ghost town that vanishes and reappears elsewhere –Show exactly where to dig for rare blocks –Cast a spell so that a cascade of flowers (or dynamite if you’re daring!) follows your every move –Make mischief with dastardly lava traps and watery curses that cause huge floods Whether you’re a Minecraft megafan or a newbie, you’ll see Minecraft in a whole new light while learning the basics of programming. Sure, you could spend all day mining for precious resources or building your mansion by hand, but with the power of Python, those days are over! Requires: Windows 7 or later; OS X 10.10 or later; or a Raspberry Pi. Uses Python 3

Transform Your World with the Power of Python

Learn to Program with Minecraft

Mit diesem Buch lernst du spielend leicht zu programmieren – in Minecraft und mit der Programmiersprache Python. Dazu brauchst du nur einen Windows-PC, Mac oder einen Raspberry Pi sowie einen Internet-Anschluss. In jedem Kapitel lernst du mehr über das Programmieren mit Python und wendest es direkt in Minecraft an. Zum Beispiel helfen dir Variablen beim Teleportieren, Strings beim Chatten mit Mitspielern und mit if-Anweisungen und while-Schleifen schreibst du schon bald deine ersten kleinen Spiele in Minecraft. Dann kommen die Funktionen – mit ihnen und mit dem bisher Gelernten stampfst du Bauwerke und ganze Städte aus dem Boden (und lässt sie ebenso schnell verschwinden)! Du lernst, wie du mit einem kleinen Python-Programm komplette Gebäude kopierst, speicherst und überall in Minecraft auf Knopfdruck aufrufst. Zum Schluss steigst du in die Objektorientierung ein und machst dich mit Klassen, Objekten und Vererbung vertraut, um schließlich mit Python zu programmieren wie ein echter Profi. Alle Programmcode-Beispiele kannst du online herunterladen. (Hinweis: dieses Buch ist eine unveränderte Neuauflage von "Python programmieren lernen mit Minecraft".

Der spielerische Einstieg mit Minecraft

Python programmieren lernen

Craig Richardson here addresses key areas of cultural politics and identity in a way that not only illuminates the development of Scottish art, but teases out another strand of the plurality of developments which led to the success of artists throughout the UK in the 1990s. It is of the highest relevance whether one's perspective is that of the development of the Scottish art, British art or European art of this period. The book adds significantly to our knowledge of the art of this period in a way that will aid not only our historical understanding but our understanding of the dynamics of art practice today. Providing an analysis and including discussion (interviewing artists, curators and critics and accessing non-catalogued personal archives) towards a new chronology, Richardson here examines and proposes a sequence of precisely denoted 'exemplary' works which outlines a self-conscious definition of the interrogative term 'Scottish art.' Among the artists whose work is discussed are John Latham, Simon Starling, Alan Johnston, Roderick Buchanan, Glen Onwin, Christine Borland, William Johnstone, Joan Eardley, Alexander Moffat, Douglas Gordon, Alan Smith, Graeme Fagen, Ross Sinclair and many others. The discussion culminates in a critically original demonstration of the scope for further research and practice within the subject, facilitating national cultural debate on the character of Scottish-national visual art.

Historical Reflections and Contemporary Overviews

Scottish Art since 1960

Designed for students who want to learn Python programming, an introduction to related open-source language fundamentals and concepts assumes no prior experience throughout nine video-supported, instructive projects that provide an entry into learning other programming languages. Original.
