[mesa-users] PREREQS FOR MODELLING SOFTWARE

[Josiah Schwab]

Hello Siddhant,

This isn't a well-posed question---for example, what does "similar" to
MESA mean?  Also, this list is not the appropriate place to seek support
for developing software that is independent of MESA.

To me, sounds like you are looking for a general introduction to
scientific computing.  I have seen the following book recommended:

Hope that helps,
