You'll learn how to use HTML5 markup to add video, offline capabilities, and more -- and you'll be able to put that functionality to work right away. * Learn new semantic elements, such as , , and * Meet Canvas, a 2D drawing surface you can program with JavaScript * Embed video in your web pages without third-party plugins * Use Geolocation to let web application visitors share their physical location * Take advantage of local storage capacity that goes way beyond cookies * Build offline web applications that work after network access is disconnected * Learn about several new input types for web forms * Create your own custom vocabularies in HTML5 with microdata

Mark Pilgrim has wanted to ‘be on radio’ since he was thirteen years old, yet it always seemed like an unobtainable dream. It took a life-threatening illness to motivate him to pursue his passion.

At the age of eighteen his radio dream was on the back burner. Mark had just completed the first year of a B.Com degree at university and had secured a bursary to complete his studies. Things were looking good. Then the blow fell: he was diagnosed with testicular cancer. After surgery and throughout months of chemotherapy his initial despair was transformed into determination. He found the inner strength to fight the illness, change his career direction, and to make his lifelong dream a reality.

Beyond The Baldness is a personal account of Mark’s journey of determination, following every opportunity to audition for radio and television. From the humble beginnings of living in a trailer park, today Mark is one of South Africa’s best-known and most recognisable personalities, having deejayed on South Africa’s biggest radio stations and hosted some of the most memorable television shows like ‘Big Brother’ and SA’s biggest ever game show ‘The Power of 10’. His voice is also used in countless radio and television commercials.

As a motivational speaker, Mark spends a lot of his time engaging with delegates at conferences, chatting about his experience with cancer as well as the sudden heart attack he had at the age of 38.

His positive approach to life is inspirational and it will encourage everyone who reads this book to chase their dreams!

Python ist eine vollwertige Programmiersprache, mit der sich auch grossere Anwendungen entwickeln lassen. In den letzten Jahren hat sie an Beliebtheit gewonnen, und mit Python 3 steht eine stark erweiterte Version zur Verfugung. In dem Band werden die Werkzeuge und Programmiermoglichkeiten praxisorientiert vorgestellt. Jedes Kapitel beginnt mit einem vollwertigen, lauffahigen Codebeispiel, das jeweils ausfuhrlich analysiert wird. Im Vordergrund stehen die unmittelbare praktische Anwendung und die Realisierung von Projekten mit Python 3."
