Iconic Physics Algorithms?

Hey guys! I hope this is in the right place...

Background: I am a graduate student in a theoretical quantum lab and have studied plasma physics as an undergraduate. I have a decent experience in programming (C++, Fortran, python...). For the past few months, I have been learning physics algorithms and streaming my progress on twitch.tv (I can send you a link / schedule, if you want).

Info on simulations...

  • Completed: Basic MD, Basic FDTD, Monte Carlo, Force integration, optimal control...

  • Working on: Quantum Monte Carlo

  • In the future: Quantum Circuits, Density Functional Theory, DMRG, Fluids (Quantum, MHD, classical), hydrocodes...

Question: Can you think of any cool, iconic physics simulations / algorithms to do for fun? Any twists on the above methods (such as TFMD) are also welcome!

I would love to get a somewhat comprehensive list of new methods to learn and work on! I would prefer to stay away from pre-built software packages, though.

Thanks for reading / let me know what you think!
