PHYS 305: Computational Physics

This is a Jupyter Book for University of Arizona's PHYS 305: Computational Physics, taught in Spring 2025.

Usage

Building the book

If you'd like to develop and/or build the PHYS 305 book, you should:

1. Clone this repository
2. Run pip install -r requirements.txt (it is recommended you do this within a virtual environment)
3. (Optional) Edit the books source files located in the docs/ directory
4. Run jupyter-book clean docs/ to remove any existing builds
5. Run jupyter-book build docs/

A fully-rendered HTML version of the book will be built in docs/_build/html/.

Hosting the book

Please see the Jupyter Book documentation to discover options for deploying a book online using services such as GitHub, GitLab, or Netlify.

For GitHub and GitLab deployment specifically, the cookiecutter-jupyter-book includes templates for, and information about, optional continuous integration (CI) workflow files to help easily and automatically deploy books online with GitHub or GitLab. For example, if you chose github for the include_ci cookiecutter option, your book template was created with a GitHub actions workflow file that, once pushed to GitHub, automatically renders and pushes your book to the gh-pages branch of your repo and hosts it on GitHub Pages when a push or pull request is made to the main branch.
