Computational Physics Seminar

Computation for Physicists: Numbers and Errors

Presented by Dr. Huaiyu Duan

Computers can produce garbage if you are not careful with what you do. In this seminar of Computation for Physicists series, I will explain how the numbers are represented in a computer and the various errors or uncertainties that can occur in numerical computations.

This seminar will be held through Zoom. Please ask the host for the passcode if you don't know it.
