I love including numerical calculations in my introductory and advanced physics courses. I find that including coding in the introductory physics course forces students to think in different ways to ...
Numerical calculations are grand. Of course, they are just another form of normal calculations - like I have said before. So, I have mostly used [VPython](http ...
Physics and Python stuff. Most of the videos here are either adapted from class lectures or solving physics problems. I ...

When Nature Physics celebrated 20 years of high-temperature superconductors, numerical approaches were on the periphery. Since then, new ideas implemented in new algorithms are leading to new insights ...
In the early years of space exploration, scientists and engineers dreamed of sending vehicles to Mars that could land on the planet’s surface and explore its terrain. However, one of their biggest ...
Precision cosmology: the Large Synoptic Survey Telescope will soon be scanning the heavens. (Courtesy: LSST) A powerful numerical code that uses Einstein’s general theory of relativity to describe how ...
