Intermediate C++ for PhD students (IMPRS-UFAST skills course)

Soeren Nielsen

Course

Description

The ideal programming language for a physicist would allow him
to write his code in terms of physical objects, like Hamiltonians
and wave functions, with all the properties we expect of such objects,
without sacrificing performance to highly optimised codes.

In this C++ intermediate course, you will build a template library
to make this possible for the simple case of one electron on a 1D grid.

The skills learned will also let you easily structure even large programs,

and prepare yourself to build for example MultiDimensionalArray,
Tensor and GridFunction classes, approaching standard library quality,
and with the natural syntax one would expect of such classes.

Familiarity with basic C++ is assumed, for example from the previous IMPRS C++ course for beginners.
