Greetings guys,
I am new here and new to Python. I am working at my Master thesis right now, which is in theoretical physics. We do lots of calculation intensive simulations using C++, but post processing and data visualisation is awful with that language.
I have heard about the enormous capabilities of Python in this field.
Usually, my simulations yield a .txt file with different columns of numbers. What I need is a method to create high quality scientific plots, with the ability to manipulate axis scaling, axis description, plot colour and so on.
Anything aside from that is not necessary for me for now.
So I would like you to give me your recommendations for tutorials I should work through in order to not waste time with stuff I will probably not need.
Like, what kind of basics do I need before I can start digging into the data visualisation stuff and what kind of tutorials would you recommend for these basics and for my specific needs?
Best regards,
SchroedingersLion
