Tutorial Octave 3

This document defines and plots the wavefunction of a particle in a 2D box. It sets up grids for x and y, defines the 1D particle-in-a-box wavefunction, and uses this to construct the 2D wavefunction as the product of the 1D wavefunctions. It then plots the 2D wavefunction as a contour and surface plot for a particle with quantum numbers nx=2 and ny=2 in a box of size Lx=1 and Ly=1.
