hi everyone,
one of my homework questions asks me to write a computer program to evaluate the Planck distribution at any temperature and wavelength and add it to a routine for evaluating integrals for the energy density of the radiation between two wavelengths.
I have never used any programming to study chemistry, can anyone show me which language should I use, and some links for the tutorials for programming applied for physical chemistry?
any help appreciated, thank you.

any reply or hint for me please.
 
If you've never done any programming before, I don't see how you can do an assignment like this in any reasonable amount of time. Pretty much any computer language would work (for example c, c++, basic, fortran, etc.) but if you have never learned any programming then it takes quite a while to get up to speed.

If you at least knew one programming language it would be easier to help you.
