This is a course for 1st year physics students aiming at...

      understanding how to use and program in a language relevant for scientific calculations,

     • processing, interpreting, and presenting numerical data graphically,

     • understanding how to use computers as a tool to solve analytical, algebraic and physical problems,

     • developing to capability to model and implement a simple physical problem numerically in a computer, and

     • publicly presentation of scientific results.


For this MATLAB will be used, in order to focus on aforementioned objectives and not on coding details.
