Scientific Computing Blog (1): Hydrodynamics Code using Julia | Computational Science Blog
I am a strong proponent of Julia as a programming language for scientific computing. Julia is a new language that is as fast as C/Fortran and as easy to use as Python. In this demonstration, I wrote a one-dimensional hydrodynamics code using the Lax scheme and Euler method. Below is an animation of the gas with a classical initial condition: a Sod shock tube. The simulation, plotting, and animation are all done by a single Julia script which you can download from here. The script is also copied below. From the scripts, you can appreciate the simplicity and cleanness of the syntax.
