ComputationalMethods

Computational Methods Course at UdeA.

by: Sebastian Bustamante 2014/2015 Diego Restrepo ** 2017/...

This course is intended for students of Astronomy and Physics at the Universidad de Antioquia and will cover some numerical methods commonly used in science and specially in astronomy. These topics will be addressed from a formal context but also keeping a practical and computational approach, illustrating many useful applications in problems of physics and astronomy.

The practical component will be almost entirely developed in Python and slightly less in C (when computational performance is required). However students with knowledge in other programming languages (except privative languages like MatLab, Mathematica) are also aimed to use them.

In this repository it can be found all the related material of the course, including the detailed program, notes and presentations, examples (ipython notebooks) and homeworks. (This repository may be subject to changes continuously as the course advances).

SYLLABUS: detailed description of the program of the course, including a brief motivation and presentation, topics to be covered, evaluation and bibliography.
