    Book recommendation for classical mechanics

    Here is the course description of course 1 : http://imgur.com/eWb9sg7 I want to avoid Indian writers and their books. I have decided to buy one book for now to cover course 1 and has good coverage of theory. I have narrowed down to a few options : K&K, Goldstein , Gregory , French (all these...

    Book recommendation for classical mechanics

    Hi! Thank you so much for the advice.. But Goldstein seems much higher than what I need right now. I am just starting my undergrad, and so I am searching a book for classical mech 1, mostly covering Newtonian mechanics. I would buy Goldstein for the course 2.

    Book recommendation for classical mechanics

    Hello everyone, I have to choose a book for classical mechanics. After reading a lot through the forum, I find that the book by A.P French and the one by Kleppner is a good buy for my undergraduate course in classical mechanics. Also, is the book by Mary Boas for Mathematical methods a good...

    Unsure how dedicated I am to pure physics

    I think even if you don't take the classes on coding, it is possible to learn them outside through some other education centers. I am sure they would be in your country, like a diploma or something. It is a good decision to stick with pure physics and learn the computational part aside, as it...

    Programs What is a good minor for a Physics major?

    Physics is probably the only major which is close to my interests. Although I would like to study the aforementioned topics given the circumstances, I have other options too. The only thing that worries me are the computational skills that are needed.

    Programs What is a good minor for a Physics major?

    Sorry if I seem to disturb, but in physics, it is essential to learn programming and numerical analysis. I have found basic skills in FORTRAN and C in the physics major syllabus. But there is small course for Numerical Methods in Maths minor. Will it suffice? and is it possible to learn it by...

    Programs What is a good minor for a Physics major?

    Thank you so much everyone. But the bad news is, they gave me Chemistry because less available seats for Comp. Sc. Actually all the Math and Stats majors took them. I may have to wait for it. But I hope I can learn Comp Sc. by myself. Yes, I am of course interested in Artificial Intelligence...
