Examples from Barton and Nackman

If you link to Barton and Nachman's WWW home page, you will find, among other things, a link to an errata listing. If you link to Barton and Nachman's WWW page entitled Scientific and Engineering C++: Index to Online Source Code, you will find HTML links to all the code used in the book.

For historical reasons, we have Barton and Nachman examples in a couple of other places.

Anyone may use this link to browse the directory /nfs/juno/u5/doc/Miscellaneous/C++/SciEng, a complete set of Barton & Nackman examples.

Anyone may use this link to browse the directory /nfs/juno/u5/doc/Programming/C++Class/SciEng/examples. This directory has the advantage of containing the examples Paul has introduced from the CLHEP library.

For SLAC Unix users in the bfactory group: go to a directory where you want the examples to reside and type cvs co SciEng/examples. You can also just check out the examples from one chapter at a time (eg SciEng/examples/ch2 or SciEng/examples/clhep).

Miscellaneous info

You will find other useful information on the Programming page and some information on the B++ simulation package (the BaBar detector using the Gismo package) on the Physics and Simulation page.
