QPython as mobile computational physics laboratory anywhere, anytime and anyhow

Computational physics (CP) has become an integral part of physics. However, an important choice in deciding the computational approach is accessibility to both the computing device and the programming language. The continuous growth of smartphones in Africa and the availability of the free and open source Python programming capabilities in QPython (QP) meet the accessibility requirement to make them mobile computational physics laboratory (MCPL). We present here one of our current projects under the Python African Computational Science and Engineering Tour Project (PACSETPro) of using QP as MCPL for teaching CP and development of physics Apps to students, new beginners as well as expert programmers anywhere, anytime and anyhow. We examine the third party libraries especially the future of matplotlib in QP.
