Abstract
A large multitude of scientific computing tools is available today. This article gives an overview of available tools and explains the main application fields. In addition basic principles of number representations in computing and the resulting truncation errors are treated. The selection of tools is for those students, who work in the field of accelerator beam dynamics.
