You'll need the following to get the most out of this cookbook:
Java SE 7, or higher, installed
Basic core Java knowledge
DL4J basics
Maven basics
Basic data analytical skills
Deep learning/machine learning basics
OS command basics (Linux/Windows)
IntelliJ IDEA IDE (this is a very easy and hassle-free way of managing code; however, you're free to try another IDE, such as Eclipse)
Spring Boot basics (to integrate DL4J with Spring Boot for use with web applications)
We use DL4J version1.0.0-beta3throughout this book except for Chapter 7, Constructing an LSTM Neural Network for Sequence Classification, where we used the current latest version,1.0.0-beta4, to avoid bugs.

I wanted to learn C and C++, but it didn't click for me until I picked up an O'Reilly book. When I went on the O’Reilly platform, I was astonished to find all the books there, plus live events and sandboxes so you could play around with the technology.

I’ve been on the O’Reilly platform for more than eight years. I use a couple of learning platforms, but I'm on O'Reilly more than anybody else. When you're there, you start learning. I'm never disappointed.

I'm always learning. So when I got on to O'Reilly, I was like a kid in a candy store. There are playlists. There are answers. There's on-demand training. It's worth its weight in gold, in terms of what it allows me to do.
