Introduction to Design Thinking: In-House Training Innovation is the cornerstone of highly successful companies, especially those that continue to be successful over the years and decades. Design thinking practices fuel this continual innovation, as they are the critical links from inspiration to delivery, concept to showroom floor, and start-up to global business. Design thinking is a structured approach to promoting innovation and creative problem-solving. It is not a new approach. It has been around for centuries, as the art, architecture, and inventions of mankind illustrate. By examining the steps to achieving great design and maximum utility of product, design thinking approaches provide a framework in which to develop new solutions to problems and new products to sell. This highly interactive course is designed to help participants think like designers to generate innovation, and to help teams to produce more innovation and creativity. Since design thinking is based on doing rather than thinking, we participants are challenged to apply the techniques, in the classroom, to create new ideas and solutions to a case study project. What you will Learn At the end of this program, you will be able to: Explain the underlying principles and value of using Design Thinking for innovation Describe the basic concepts of the Stanford Model for Design Thinking Evaluate a set of basic Design Thinking techniques for application to your projects Apply tools, techniques, and skills aligned with the 5 stages of the Stanford Model Drive innovation through Design Thinking at some level in your work environment Foundation Concepts Problems and solutions The Design Thinking difference Design Thinking skills and abilities Design Thinking mindset Design Thinking frameworks Stages of Design Thinking Problems and solutions The Design Thinking difference Design Thinking skills and abilities Design Thinking mindset Design Thinking frameworks General Practices Team formation Visualization Improvisation Personalization Empathize Practices Overview of Empathize techniques Observation Engagement Interviews Define Practices Overview of Define practices Unpacking techniques Defining the customer techniques Integrating the Define experience Ideate Practices Overview of Ideate practices Reusable techniques for the Ideate stage New Ideate techniques to explore Prototype & Test Practices Overview of Prototype practices Examples of prototypes Overview of Testing practices Forms of testing techniques Adopt and Adapt Design Thinking Overview of Design Thinking implementation Design Thinking implementation challenges Success in implementing Design Thinking Summary and Next Steps Workshop summary Next steps: Personal Action Plans

Regular expressions training course description Regular expressions are an extremely powerful tool for manipulating text and data. They are now standard features in a wide range of languages and popular tools, including Python and MySQL. Regular expressions allow you to code complex and subtle text processing that you never imagined could be automated. Once you've mastered regular expressions, they'll become an invaluable part of your toolkit. You will wonder how you ever got by without them. What will you learn Use Regular Expressions. Troubleshoot Regular Expressions. Compare RE features among different versions. Explain how the regular expression engine works. Optimize REs. Match what you want, not what you don't want. Regular expressions training course details Who will benefit: Anyone looking to use regular expressions. Prerequisites: None. Duration 1 day Regular expressions training course contents Introduction to Regular Expressions Solving real problems, REs as a language, the filename analogy, language analogy, RE frame of mind, searching text files: egrep, egrep metacharacters, start and end of the line, character classes, matching any character with dot, alternation, ignoring differences in capitalization, word boundaries, optional items, other quantifiers: repetition, parentheses and backreferences, the great escape, expanding the foundation, linguistic diversification, the goal of a RE, more examples, RE nomenclature, Improving on the status quo. Extended introductory examples A short introduction to Perl, matching text with regular expressions, toward a more real-world example, side effects of a successful match, Intertwined regular expression, intermission, modifying text with regular expressions, example: form letter, example: prettifying a stock price, automated editing, a small mail utility, adding commas to a number with lookaround, text-to-HTML conversion, that doubled-word thing. Regular expression features and flavours The regex landscape, origins of REs, care and handling of REs, Integrated handling, procedural and object-oriented handling, search-and-replace example. strings character encodings and modes, strings as REs, character-encoding issues, unicode, regex modes and match modes, common metacharacters and features, character representations, character classes and class-like constructs, anchors and other 'zero-width assertions', comments and mode modifiers, grouping capturing conditionals and control. The mechanics of expression processing Two kinds of engines, new standards, regex engine types, from the department of redundancy department, testing the engine type, match basics, about the examples, rule 1: the match that begins earliest wins, engine pieces and parts, rule 2: the standard quantifiers are greedy, regex-directed versus text-directed, NFA engine: regex-directed, DFA engine: text-directed, first thoughts: NFA and DFA in comparison, backtracking, two important points on backtracking, saved states, backtracking and greediness, more about greediness and backtracking, problems of greediness, multi-character 'quotes', lazy quantifiers, greediness and laziness, laziness and backtracking, possessive quantifiers and atomic grouping, possessive quantifiers ?, +, *+, ++ and {m,n}+, the backtracking of lookaround, is alternation greedy? taking advantage of ordered alternation, NFA DFA and posix, the longest-leftmost', posix and the longest-leftmost rule, speed and efficiency. Practical regex techniques Continuation lines, matching an IP address, working with filenames, matching balanced sets of parentheses, watching out for unwanted matches, matching delimited text, knowing your data and making assumptions, stripping leading and trailing whitespace, matching and HTML tag, matching an HTML link, examining an HTTP URL, validating a hostname, plucking a hostname, plucking a URL, parsing CSV files. Crafting an efficient expression Efficiency vs. correctness, localizing greediness, global view of backtracking, more work for POSIX NFA, work required during a non-match, being more specific, alternation can be expensive, benchmarking, know what you re measuring, benchmarking with Python, common optimisations, the mechanics of regex application, pre-application optimizations, optimizations with the transmission, optimization of the regex itself, techniques for faster expressions, common sense techniques, expose literal text, expose anchors, lazy versus greedy: be specific, split into multiple REs, mimic initial-character discrimination, use atomic grouping and possessive quantifiers, lead the engine to a match, unrolling the loop, observations, using atomic grouping and possessive quantifiers, short unrolling examples, unrolling C comments, the free flowing regex, a helping hand to guide the match, a well-guided regex is a fast regex.
