This textbook is suitable for two courses in computational physics.
The first is at an advanced introductory level and is appropriate
for seniors or first year graduate students. The student is
introduced to integral and differential techniques, Monte Carlo
integration, basic computer architecture, linear algebra, finite
element techniques, digital signal processing and chaos. In this
first part of the book, no knowledge of quantum mechanics is
assumed. The third edition has expanded treatments of the subjects
in each of the first nine chapters and a new section on modern
parallel computing, in particular, Beowulf clusters. The second
course (the last four chapters) deals with problems in the strong
interaction using quantum mechanical techniques, with emphasis on
solutions of many-body scattering problems and several-body bound
state calculations with Monte Carlo techniques. It also contains a
chapter dealing with the numerical summation of divergent series.
