  The text of the homework is "Exercises VI" (Note that some items are optional). Solve either in f90 or c++ or in Python or interfacing different languages (this will be considered a plus). Upload a short report in pdf (max ~4 pages, one file including all the exercises) with the relevant plots and answers. Do not repeat the theory! Additional material can also be uploaded separately (in other 2 slots).
