The Devito Book

The Devito Book is a set of tutorials that focus on the finite difference (FD) method for solving partial differential equations (PDEs), using Devito. It is largely based on "Finite Difference Computing with PDEs - A Modern Software Approach" by H. P. Langtangen and S. Linge.

The tutorials are available as a Jupyter Book. They are also available on MyBinder as a set of Jupyter notebooks, under the fdm-devito-notebooks directory.
