Klantenrecensies, inclusief sterbeoordelingen voor producten, geven klanten meer informatie over het product en helpen bij de beslissing of dit het juiste product voor hen is.
Om de algehele sterbeoordeling en procentuele uitsplitsing per ster te berekenen, gebruiken we niet een gewoon gemiddelde. Maar ons systeem houdt rekening met zaken als hoe recent een recensie is en of de beoordelaar het item op Amazon heeft gekocht. Het systeem heeft ook recensies geanalyseerd om de betrouwbaarheid te verifiëren.

I'm just not sure who the target audience is.
The topics covered in this book are all highly specialized. As such the examples address specific problems and the knowledge gained from their implementation tends to be just as specialized. The type of programmer who goes asking the questions answered in this book doesn't need this book. Even advanced engine developers may only find a chapter or two relevant to their work.
GPU Pro seems to be a collection of industry whitepapers with the programmer art replaced by graphics designers. Having read some of the original research that this book references I can't help but think aspiring programmers with a specific question in mind would be better served just asking their favorite search engine.
Each chapter being written by a different person is indicative of this book's audience issue. The examples referenced were written by programmers from varying disciplines and teams trying to solve wildly differing problems and then compiled together. Even large cross-disciplinary projects will likely only utilize a small subset of the knowledge presented with the rest remaining unread.
As the title suggests if you don't know what to ask and are looking for an overview about shader development, GPU programming, or rendering pipelines, this book is not for you.
