Dislocation Dynamics (DD) is a numerical method for studying the evolution of a population of discrete dislocations in an elastic medium under mechanical loads. The pyLabDD package introduces a simple ...

Among the most powerful tools we have as programmers—perhaps the most powerful tools—are functions. We’ve already seen some built-in Python functions, for example, print() and type(). We’ll see many ...

When calling a subroutine from a calling procedure to perform a process, there is a way to pass values to the subroutine. By setting arguments on the subroutine side and passing values that match the ...

The Windows version of the Python interpreter can be run from the command line the same way it’s run in other operating systems, by typing python or python3 at the prompt. But there’s a feature unique ...
