PYTHON PROGRAMMING FOR PHYSICISTS
CHAPTER2PYTHON PROGRAMMING FOR PHYSICISTSOUR FIRSTitem of business is to learn how to write computer programs inthe PYTHON PROGRAMMING is easy to learn, simple to use, and enormously powerful. It hasfacilities and features for performing tasks of many can do art orengineering in PYTHON , surf the web or calculate your taxes,write words orwrite music, make a movie or make the next billion-dollar Internet will not attempt to learn about all of PYTHON s features, however, but restrictourselves to those that are most useful for doing physics calculations. We willlearn about the core structure of the language first, how to put together theinstructions that make up a program, but we will also learn about some of thepowerful features that can make the life of a computational physicist easier,such as features for doing calculations with vectors and matrices, and featuresfor making graphs and computer graphics.
This is an editor window. It behaves dif-ferently from the Python shell window. You type a complete program into this window, usually consisting of many lines. You can edit it, add things, delete ... there will be times when single-letter variable names are appropriate. Ifyou need variables to represent the x and y positions of an object, for ...
