Computational Physics with R provides a comprehensive introduction to
computational methods in physics, designed for students and
researchers who wish to use R as their primary programming
environment. While computational physics is often taught with
languages such as C++, Python, or Fortran, this book fills a unique
gap by adopting R, a language widely known for statistical computing
and data visualisation, and demonstrating its effectiveness in
tackling core problems in physics. The book adopts a strongly
pedagogical approach: it emphasizes step-by-step construction of
algorithms, reproducible code, and guided exercises with fully worked
solutions. The book is both a teaching resource and a reference for
practical problem-solving in physics. Key Features: First book on
Computational Physics using the R programming language. The book can
also be used as a thorough introduction to the R language for
physicists. The book is accessible at an advanced undergraduate level.
The book can be used both as introduction to fundamental Computational
Physics and as reference to advanced Computational Physics. The book
can be used as text book for a one- or two-semester courses on
Computational Physics. Each section ends with a few recommended
computing exercises and suggested computing projects. Solutions to
both are included. Each chapter opens with learning objectives and
closes with an end-of-chapter summary.
