Classical fluids

- Effective pairwise potentials

- Important physical quantities: the radial distribution function g(r)

- Model systems and numerical simulation: Hard disks of spheres, Lennard-Jones potential

- Periodic boundary conditions: implementation in a code

- Minimum image convention for the calculations of distances

- The stochastic approach: Metropolis Monte Carlo method

- The deterministic approach: the velocity-Verlet algorithm for a molecular dynamics simulation
