This applet was born in "Baby Quantum", my introductory quantum mechanics course. For that first version, I wrote a custom tridiagonal solver to integrate the system in time implicitly. This had a basic applet interface, but was still really inspiring.
The remaining core of the applet was born in my computational physics course. I added an eigensolver to compute the eigenstates and energy values quickly. The remainder of the summer after this course was spent on updating the applet interface to keep up with the computational core.
