Scientific computing in C++

The aim of this module is to give students the basics of programming in C++, and to help them acquire a good command of this language for scientific computing applications. The first practical exercises will familiarize students with object-oriented programming and the C++ language. The final practicals will enable them to use this type of programming to solve partial differential equations using numerical methods such as finite differences and finite volumes.
The course comprises 12 practicals (48 hours). Two practical sessions will be assessed on the basis of a written report. Ongoing assessments in the form of questionnaires will be organized.

• Scientific computing in Fortran 90 - II
• Knowledge and use of a programming language (Fortran, Python)
