Programming and plotting graphs
If you already have your favorite way of plotting things up, you should use it to plot graphs for this course. The same goes for the programming. However, if you are uninitiated, or if you like to find a simple, robust and free alternative, python is what I would recommend.
The origin of the textbook
These two links show how the two books by Kardar emerged, I think. (The first book is our main textbook.) Very useful sites!
