The exercise class complements the lecture by providing hands-on experience with the numerical methods introduced. We focus on applying the computational techniques necessary for solving real astrophysical problems. A key part of the class involves learning how to numerically solve analytic differential equations, a foundational skill for addressing a wide range of astrophysical phenomena. Additionally, we simulate basic hydrodynamical and gravitational problems, which builds the groundwork for understanding and implementing large-scale astrophysical simulations. By working through these exercises, students gain practical skills to complement their theoretical knowledge and deepen their understanding of modern computational astrophysics.
