The other day I heard Daley tell someone "There's nothing you can do in Matlab that you can't do in Python" - and I thought it would be fun to prove him right! I studied Maths at uni (finished last year) and did plenty of cool stuff in Matlab including dynamical simulation, awesome graphing/plotting and systems analysis. I have plenty of material we could try to reproduce in Python. I've done very little of this sort of thing in Python but I know a few of you have use NumPy, SciPy, etc. It would be great to look at some libraries which would help us achieve this. After having enjoyed Jonathan S's talk on NumPy some months ago I'd welcome an excuse to reinforce my knowledge of that library. One of my lecturers wrote a book called 'Dynamical Systems with Applications using ...' [a version for Matlab, Maple and Mathematica] http://www.amazon.co.uk/Dynamical-Systems-Applications-using-MATLAB%C2%AE/dp/0817643214 Should make a good coding challenge for us! I reckon this would be an interesting exercise for next month's meeting. Count me in!
