It exemplifies the implementation of the component-wise reconstruction for finite-difference (FD) and finite-volume (FV) methods. In this update, I also include the characteristic-wise reconstruction in FV methodology.
As always, the philosophy behind this code is to be readable rather than efficient. Here, I dedicate this example to all the CFD students starting their path in numerical methods. Manuel A. Diaz (June 2018)
