This second edition increases the universality of
the previous edition by providing all its codes in the Java language,
whose compiler and development kit are available for free for
essentially all operating systems. In addition, the accompanying CD
provides many of the same codes in Fortran 95, Fortran 77, and C, for
even more universal application, as well as MPI codes for parallel
applications. The book also includes new materials on trial-and-error
search techniques, IEEE floating point arithmetic, probability and
statistics, optimization and tuning in multiple languages, parallel
computing with MPI, JAMA the Java matrix library, the solution of
simultaneous nonlinear equations, cubic splines, ODE eigenvalue
problems, and Java plotting programs. From the reviews of the first
edition: "Landau and Paez's book would be an excellent choice for a
course on computational physics which emphasizes computational methods
and programming." - American Journal of Physics
