Description

The aim of this first-semester course is to review the classical techniques of computational physics, using the Python language. After a brief review of the basics of the language and the tools for data analysis and representation, we'll study Monte-Carlo techniques, classical methods of interpolation, integration and differentiation, solutions of systems of ordinary differential equations and solutions of systems of partial differential equations. These notions will serve as a foundation for the concepts that will be further discussed during the second semester course.  The lectures are accompanied by exercise sessions on machines.
