Description
The Schroedinger equation in one and two dimensions is solved using sinc functions, applying the variational principle and employing Python and Numpy. Our goal is to examine how the sinc function method performs with respect to its convergence rate. The python codes are tested with the quantum harmonic oscillator potential and Morse potential, for which analytical solutions are available.
It is found that the method converges quickly.
