Bringing together idiomatic Python programming, foundational numerical methods, and physics applications, this is an ideal standalone textbook for courses on computational physics. All the frequently used numerical methods in physics are explained, including foundational techniques and hidden gems on topics such as linear algebra, differential equations, root-finding, interpolation, and integration. The second edition of this introductory book features several new codes and 140 new problems (many on physics applications), as well as new sections on the singular-value decomposition, derivative-free optimization, Bayesian linear regression, neural networks, and partial differential equations. The last section in each chapter is an in-depth project, tackling physics problems that cannot be solved without the use of a computer. Written primarily for students studying computational physics, this textbook brings the non-specialist quickly up to speed with Python before looking in detail at the numerical methods often used in the subject.

The present text attempts to strike a happy medium: a broad spectrum of numerical methods is studied in detail and then applied to questions from undergraduate physics, via idiomatic implementations in the Python programming language. When selecting and discussing topics, I have prioritized pedagogy over novelty; this is reflected in the chapter titles, which are pretty standard. Of course, my views on what is pedagogically superior are mine alone, so the end result also happens to be original in some respects. Below, I touch upon some of the main features of this book, with a view to orienting the reader.
