Synopsis
Modeling and Simulation in Python is a thorough but easy-to-follow introduction to physical modelling - that is, the art of describing and simulating real-world systems. Readers are guided through modelling things like world population growth, infectious disease, bungee jumping, baseball flight trajectories, celestial mechanics, and more while simultaneously developing a strong understanding of fundamental programming concepts like loops, vectors, and functions. Clear and concise, with a focus on learning by doing, the author spares the reader abstract, theoretical complexities and gets right to hands-on examples that show how to produce useful models and simulations.

"Teaches the art of describing and simulating real-world systems using Python. Learn to model discrete systems, like a bike-sharing network, as well as first-order systems, like a coffee cup as it cools down, and second-order systems, like projectiles moving through space. Each chapter features hands-on examples and exercises"-- Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability. Seller Inventory # 9781718502161
