The deal.II tutorial contains a collection of programs, each more or less built atop of previous ones, which demonstrate various aspects of the library. Each such example has the following structure:
You can browse the available tutorial programs
The programs are in the examples/ directory of your local deal.II
installation. After compiling the library itself, if you go into one of the
tutorial directories, you can compile
the program by typing make, and run it
using make run. The latter command also compiles the program
if that has not already been done. The Makefiles in the different
directories are based on the small program Makefile template described
in this section.
