Personal computers have become an essential part of the physics curricula and is becoming an increasingly important tool in the training of students. The present book is an effort to provide a quality and classroom tested resource material. Salient features Topics have been carefully selected to give a flavour of computational techniques in the context of a wide range of physics problems. Style of presentation emphasis the pedagogic approach, assuming no previous knowledge of either programming in high-level language or numerical techniques. Profusely illustrated with diagrams, graphic outputs, programming hints, algorithms and source codes. Ideally suited for self-study with a PC on desktop. Accompanied with a CD-Rom with source codes of selected problems saving the user from typing in the source code. Can be adopted as a two-semester course in universities running courses such as Computer Applications in Physics, Numerical Methods in Physics or as an additional optional paper in Nodal Centres of Computer Applications provided by UGC in different universities. Meets the requirements of students of physics at undergraduate and postgraduate level in particular and physical sciences, engineering and mathematics students in general. This book is an outcome of a book project granted by University Grants Commission New Delhi (India). About The Author: Prof. R.C. Verma is Professor of Physics in the Department of Physics, Panjabi University Patiala. He
