About the Book

Leverage this example-packed, comprehensive guide for all your Python computational needs Key Features Learn the first steps within Python to highly specialized concepts Explore examples and code snippets taken from typical programming situations within scientific computing. Delve into essential computer science concepts like iterating, object-oriented programming, testing, and MPI presented in strong connection to applications within scientific computing. Book DescriptionPython has tremendous potential within the scientific computing domain. This updated edition of Scientific Computing with Python features new chapters on graphical user interfaces, efficient data processing, and parallel computing to help you perform mathematical and scientific computing efficiently using Python. This book will help you to explore new Python syntax features and create different models using scientific computing principles. The book presents Python alongside mathematical applications and demonstrates how to apply Python concepts in computing with the help of examples involving Python 3.8. You'll use pandas for basic data analysis to understand the modern needs of scientific computing, and cover data module improvements and built-in features. You'll also explore numerical computation modules such as NumPy and SciPy, which enable fast access to highly efficient numerical algorithms. By learning to use the plotting module Matplotlib, you will be able to represent your computational results in talks and publications. A special chapter is devoted to SymPy, a tool for bridging symbolic and numerical computations. By the end of this Python book, you'll have gained a solid understanding of task automation and how to implement and test mathematical algorithms within the realm of scientific computing. What you will learn Understand the building blocks of computational mathematics, linear algebra, and related Python objects Use Matplotlib to create high-quality figures and graphics to draw and visualize results Apply object-oriented programming (OOP) to scientific computing in Python Discover how to use pandas to enter the world of data processing Handle exceptions for writing reliable and usable code Cover manual and automatic aspects of testing for scientific programming Get to grips with parallel computing to increase computation speed Who this book is forThis book is for students with a mathematical background, university teachers designing modern courses in programming, data scientists, researchers, developers, and anyone who wants to perform scientific computation in Python.
