A Short Course in Computational Science and Engineering
C
++
, Java and Octave Numerical Programming with Free
Software Tools
Building on his highly successful textbook on C
++
, David Yevick provides a
concise yet comprehensive one-stop course in three key programming
languages, C
++
, Java and Octave (a freeware alternative to MATLAB
R
).
Employing only public-domain software to ensure straightforward
implementation for all readers, this book presents a unique overview of
numerical and programming techniques relevant to scientific programming,
including object-oriented programming, elementary and advanced topics in
numerical analysis, physical system modeling, scientific graphics, software
engineering and performance issues. Relevant features of each programming
language are illustrated with short, incisive examples, and the installation and
application of the software are described in detail. Compact, transparent code in
all three programming languages is applied to the fundamental equations of
quantum mechanics, electromagnetics, mechanics and statistical mechanics.
Uncommented versions of the code that can be immediately modified and
adapted are provided online for the more involved programs.
This compact, practical text is an invaluable introduction for students in all
undergraduate- and graduate-level courses in the physical sciences or
engineering that require numerical modeling, and is also a key reference for
instructors and scientific programmers.
D Y is a Professor of Physics at the University of Waterloo. He has
been engaged for 30 years in scientific programming in various fields of optical
communications and solid state physics at numerous university and industrial
establishments, where he performed pioneering work on the numerical
modeling of optical communication devices and systems. Professor Yevick is
currently a Fellow of the American Physical Society, the Institute of Electrical
and Electronics Engineers and the Optical Society of America as well as a
registered Professional Engineer (Ontario). He has taught scientific and
engineering programming for over 20 years and has authored or co-authored
over 170 refereed journal articles.
