Computational Science and Engineering using Python
Offered By: Indian Institute of Technology, Kharagpur via Swayam
Course Description
Overview
Computing has become a major tool in science and engineering so much so that it is called the third pillar along with experiments and theory. In this course, we first introduce Python programming language. Then we cover basic numerical algorithms covering interpolation, integration, differentiation, ODE and PDE solvers, and basic linear algebra. Python implementation of these algorithms will be covered.
