My self-pub book on Evolutionary Algorithms with Python (inc. sample)

A practical book on Evolutionary Algorithms that teaches you the concepts and how they’re implemented in practice.

My self-pub book on Evolutionary Algorithms with Python (inc. sample) launched on April 6, 2021 with 13 votes, #1,263 of 3,754 launches that month and more than 75% of that year's launches. The site was still online in September 2026, 5 years on.

In plain words

This is a self-published book about evolutionary algorithms implemented in Python, launched in 2021. It targets software developers and students interested in learning optimization techniques and algorithmic approaches. The package includes sample code alongside the written material, allowing readers to see practical implementations alongside theoretical concepts. The resource combines educational content with hands-on examples for those wanting to understand how evolutionary algorithms work in practice.

    Evolutionary Algorithms (EAs) are a fascinating class of algorithms for meta-heuristic optimisation. Perhaps the most difficult question to answer is where do we start? There is so much to cover, and many potential starting points.

    Hey HN! I wrote a book on programming called The Elements of Code. I put the entire book online here: https://elementsofcode.io/ When mentoring (usually new) programmers, I noticed there were a few common mistakes that seemed to account for about 80% of the complexity in their code. I couldn’t find a concise guide to fixing those mistakes, so I decided to write one. The title is an homage to The Elements of Style by Strunk and White, which is the classic guide for communicating well using prose. That guide is quite tactical in nature, and I wanted to parallel its focus in The…

    Hi everyone! I just released the Practical Python Projects book! (https://practicalpython.yasoob.me) I am happy to announce the first version as a release candidate. I have poured a lot of love into writing this book and would love to hear what you guys think. (A limited 100% off and discount coupons at the end) This is not a pure beginner book. The book does assume some background Python knowledge. You need to know the basics like methods, functions, classes, and such. If I use something that is not typically covered in beginner Python books, I will explain it before I use it.…

    Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…
