There is an increasing need for undergraduate students in physics to
have a core set of computational tools. Most problems in physics
benefit from numerical methods, and many of them resist analytical
solution altogether. This textbook presents numerical techniques for
solving familiar physical problems where a complete solution is
inaccessible using traditional mathematical methods. The numerical
techniques for solving the problems are clearly laid out, with a focus
on the logic and applicability of the method. The same problems are
revisited multiple times using different numerical techniques, so
readers can easily compare the methods. The book features over 250
end-of-chapter exercises. A website hosted by the author features a
complete set of programs used to generate the examples and figures,
which can be used as a starting point for further investigation. A
