I can tell you this is not the norm. I took and TA'd a computational physics course when I was in Uni. There was a lot more in that course. Euler's was taught but quickly went to using RK4. Lotka-Volterra (predator vs prey modeling) were discussed in depth, PDEs, monte-carlo (had students calculate pi), lots on SHO systems (common equation type in classical and quantum mechanics), various fitting functions, and even basic signal analysis. This served as the introduction to computing for our physicists too, where they could use MATLAB or Python. Above course seems lacking.
