By Hans Petter Langtangen

ISBN-10: 3662498863

ISBN-13: 9783662498866

The e-book serves as a primary advent to computing device programming of clinical functions, utilizing the high-level Python language. The exposition is instance and problem-oriented, the place the purposes are taken from arithmetic, numerical calculus, records, physics, biology and finance. The booklet teaches "Matlab-style" and procedural programming in addition to object-oriented programming. highschool arithmetic is a required history and it's valuable to check classical and numerical one-variable calculus in parallel with interpreting this booklet. in addition to studying how one can software desktops, the reader also will how you can remedy mathematical difficulties, bobbing up in numerous branches of technological know-how and engineering, as a result of numerical equipment and programming. by way of mixing programming, arithmetic and medical functions, the publication lays an effective origin for working towards computational science.

From the reviews: Langtangen … does a very good activity of introducing programming as a collection of talents in challenge fixing. He publications the reader into considering thoroughly approximately generating application common sense and knowledge constructions for modeling real-world difficulties utilizing gadgets and services and embracing the object-oriented paradigm. … Summing Up: hugely recommended.

F. H. Wild III, selection, Vol. forty seven (8), April 2010

Those folks who've realized clinical programming in Python ‘on the streets’ can be a little jealous of scholars who've the chance to take a direction out of Langtangen’s Primer.”
John D. prepare dinner, The Mathematical organization of the US, September 2011

This booklet is going via Python specifically, and programming regularly, through projects that scientists will most probably practice. It includes precious information for scholars new to clinical computing and could be the ideal bridge among an creation to programming and a complicated direction on numerical equipment or computational science.
Alex Small, IEEE, CiSE Vol. 14 (2), March /April 2012

“This fourth version is a
wonderful, inclusive textbook that covers pretty well every thing one wishes to
know to move from 0 to rather refined medical programming in Python…”
