ab initio

[phangels]

Considering ‘ab initio computations’ to be calculations based on “basic and established laws of nature without additional assumptions or special models”(cited from wikipedia), classical and quantum mechanics are ab initio methods when the calculations are based on Newtons laws and Schrodinger’s Equations. Classical electromagnetism can also be considered ab initio methods when calculations are based on Maxwells equations.
