There are a few Latex syntax guidelines worth remembering:Our goal in Computational Physics is to develop the skills necessary to use computers to solve physics problems. You will take the tools that you learned in Phy280 and apply them to a variety of physical systems to learn about algorithm development, modeling and analysis.
Materials will be divided into lessons as follows:
| Lesson | Content |
|---|---|
| 1 | Intro to UNIX; Remote login |
| 2 | The UNIX Filesystem; The Shell; Commands and wildcard |
| 3 | Scripting; Startup files; Emacs |
| 4 | Root finding techniques |
| 5 | Numerical differentiation and Integration |
| 6 | Latex ; Bibtex |
| 7 | Ordinary Differential Equations |
| 9 | Laplace's Equation |
| 10 | Project |
Lesson content, readings and due dates are subject to change
