Computational Modeling - PHY3709

Under Graduate Degree Year module NQF level: 7 Credits: 12
Module presented in English
Co-requisite: APM2611
Purpose: This module gives a thorough introduction to the important discipline of computational physics. Students who complete this module successfully will be able to: Understand the computational tasks required by the problem at hand, Find a suitable algorithm to apply to the problem at hand both from a set of common numerical methods that the students are exposed to as well as from other resources, Write programs in Python 3 that implement solutions to problems appearing both in the analysis of experimental results and the solution of theoretical problems, Complete a suitable computational project and present their results in the form or a report, typeset in LaTeX .
