摘要
Hamiltonian systems with chaotic regions are particularly slippery to treat numerically. Numerical treatments can introduce nonphysical features. Simple examples illustrate some of the pitfalls. Integer, or discrete, arithmetic is a favorite ''workaround.'' While it does not cure chaos, it clarifies the interaction of computational methods with the underlying mathematical structure. Be forewarned: I won't give any prescription that is guaranteed to give a good and reliable method to handle chaotic problems numerically. Instead, I'll stress a few of the concerns and describe one or two pitfalls.
