	Objectives
	THE COURSE HAS THE OBJECTIVE OF CONSOLIDATING STUDENTS' TRAINING IN THE USE OF BASIC AND ADVANCED COMPUTATIONAL TOOLS NECESSARY TO STUDY PHYSICAL SYSTEMS, BUT ALSO STATISTICAL AND BIOLOGICAL ONES, FROM THE MOST SIMPLE TO THE MOST COMPLEX. KNOWLEDGE AND UNDERSTANDING ABILITY THE COURSE IS INTENDED TO PROVIDE THE STUDENT WITH ADVANCED KNOWLEDGE CONCERNING THE FUNDAMENTAL NUMERICAL METHODS FOR THE RESOLUTION OF DIFFERENT TYPES OF PROBLEMS IN PHYSICS AND THE ABILITY TO UNDERSTAND / LEARN BY ONESELF ADDITIONAL ADVANCEMENTS. IN PARTICULAR, THE STUDY OF ALGORITHMS FOR THE RESOLUTION OF PARTIAL DIFFERENTIAL EQUATIONS IS PROVIDED, FOR THE IMPLEMENTATION OF THE FAST FOURIER TRANSFORM (FFT), FOR THE DIAGONALIZATION OF MATRICES, FOR THE GENERATION OF "PSEUDO-RANDOM" NUMBERS, FOR THE IMPLEMENTATION OF THE MONTE CARLO METHOD, FOR THE USE OF NEURAL NETWORKS, FOR THE SIMULATION OF REAL AND COMPLEX SYSTEMS. THE COURSE FORESEES THE USE OF C++ AS ADVANCED PROGRAMMING LANGUAGE AND THE LEARNING OF THE LANGUAGE SYNTAX AND OF THE DIFFERENT PARADIGMS OF PROGRAMMING (PROCEDURAL, MODULAR, OBJECT-ORIENTED) THAT IT SUPPORTS, SO THAT THE STUDENT CAN UNDERSTAND / LEARN BY ONESELF OTHER HIGH-LEVEL LANGUAGES. ABILITY TO APPLY KNOWLEDGE AND UNDERSTANDING THE COURSE IS INTENDED TO CONSOLIDATE STUDENT'S ABILITY TO SOLVE, AT A PROFESSIONAL LEVEL, PROBLEMS IN PHYSICS, BUT ALSO IN OTHER FIELDS OF SCIENCE, THROUGH THE USE OF NUMERICAL METHODS AND ALGORITHMS AND THEIR CODING IN TERMS OF COMPUTER PROGRAMS. IN PARTICULAR, THE STUDENT WILL HAVE TO RESTORE THE ABILITY TO SOLVE THE FUNDAMENTAL EQUATIONS OF MATHEMATICAL PHYSICS (HEAT, DIFFUSION, SCHRÖDINGER, ...), TO CALCULATE THE SUM OF SERIES OF PHYSICAL INTEREST THROUGH THE FFT, TO STUDY THE DYNAMICS OF INTERACTING QUANTUM SYSTEMS THROUGH THE LANCZOS METHOD, TO USE THE MONTE CARLO METHOD TO CALCULATE INTEGRALS IN MULTI-DIMENSIONAL SPACES, TO SIMULATE COMPLEX SYSTEMS AND EXPERIMENTAL EQUIPMENT, PROPAGATE THE ERRORS OF EXPERIMENTAL VERY COMPLEX MEASURES. THE STUDENT WILL ALSO ACHIEVE AN ADVANCED KNOWLEDGE OF THE C++ LANGUAGE FOR THE CONCRETE APPLICATION OF THE CONCEPTS ACQUIRED.

	Teaching Methods
	THE COURSE INCLUDES 24 HOURS OF FRONTAL LECTURES IN CLASSROOM FINALIZED TO THE LEARNING OF THE ADVANCED KNOWLEDGE ABOUT NUMERICAL METHODS AND PROGRAMMING AND 36 HOURS OF FRONTAL PRACTICAL LECTURES IN LABORATORY FOCUSED ON THE ILLUSTRATION OF THE PROCESS OF MODELING THE PHYSICAL PROBLEM UNDER CONSIDERATION, THE SELECTION AND DEVELOPMENT OF NUMERICAL METHODS AND ALGORITHMS NECESSARY FOR ITS NUMERICAL SOLUTION, THE DESIGN OF THE CODE ACCORDING TO THE CHOSEN PROGRAMMING PARADIGM, THE CONCRETE DRAFTING OF THE CODE IN C++ (SYNTAX OF THE LANGUAGE), ITS COMPILATION, EXECUTION, AND RELATED COLLECTION AND GRAPHICAL REPRESENTATION OF THE RESULTS.

	Verification of learning
	THE ASSESSMENT AND EVALUATION OF THE STUDENT'S LEVEL OF LEARNING WILL TAKE PLACE THROUGH A FINAL TEST THAT WILL CONSIST IN THE ORAL DISCUSSION OF A RESEARCH PROJECT, ASSIGNED AT THE END OF THE COURSE TO A GROUP OF TWO/THREE STUDENTS, CONCERNING THE SOLUTION OF A PHYSICAL PROBLEM NOT MENTIONED IN THE COURSE, BUT SOLVED BY THE NUMERICAL METHODS COVERED DURING THE COURSE. THE ORAL DISCUSSION IS AIMED AT ASSESSING THE LEVEL OF THEORETICAL KNOWLEDGE, THE AUTONOMY OF ANALYSIS AND JUDGMENT, AS WELL AS THE STUDENT'S PRESENTATION SKILLS. THE EVALUATION LEVEL IS ASSIGNED TAKING INTO ACCOUNT THE EFFICIENCY OF THE METHODS USED, THE COMPLETENESS AND ACCURACY OF THE ANSWERS, AS WELL AS THE CLARITY IN THE PRESENTATION. THE MINIMUM LEVEL OF EVALUATION (18) IS ASSIGNED WHEN THE STUDENT DEMONSTRATES UNCERTAINTIES IN THE APPLICATION OF NUMERICAL METHODS AND IN THE IDENTIFICATION OF METHODS TO CONTROL NUMERICAL ERROR, AND HAS A LIMITED KNOWLEDGE OF THE MAIN ALGORITHMS. THE MAXIMUM LEVEL (30) IS ASSIGNED WHEN THE STUDENT DEMONSTRATES A COMPLETE AND IN-DEPTH KNOWLEDGE OF NUMERICAL METHODS AND ALGORITHMS AND SHOWS A REMARKABLE ABILITY TO IDENTIFY AND MANAGE THE SOURCES OF NUMERICAL ERROR PRESENT IN THE SPECIFIC PROBLEM HE/SHE HAS CHOSEN TO DEAL WITH. PRAISE IS GIVEN WHEN THE CANDIDATE DEMONSTRATES SIGNIFICANT MASTERY OF THE THEORETICAL AND OPERATIONAL CONTENT AND SHOWS HOW TO PRESENT THE TOPICS WITH CONSIDERABLE MASTERY OF THE SPECIFIC TECHNICAL LANGUAGE AND AUTONOMOUS PROCESSING SKILLS EVEN IN CONTEXTS DIFFERENT FROM THOSE PROPOSED BY THE TEACHER.
