Starting point: basic math

Why Python?

Python is better than Matlab and C++ are for those with too much spare time.

Let's add!

$$ a + b = c $$



In [1]:

    
a = 2
b = 3
c = a + b
print c

Moving on: breathtaking graphics

Let's plot!

$$ f(x) = e^{-x^2} $$



In [1]:

    
%matplotlib inline

from numpy import linspace, exp
from matplotlib.pyplot import plot, show
x = linspace(-4, 4, 101)
y = exp(-x**2)
plot(x, y)
show()
