Modeling Waves with Numerical Calculations Using Python
Numerical calculations (what many call computational physics) is a core tool in modern physics. With numerical methods it’s possible to solve problems that would otherwise be impossible. Most physics students and educators have at least some exposure to the wave equation. It shows up in many different contexts—light, quantum mechanics, and even a simple wave on a string. However, it can be dif...
