morpho/atomic_properties/detail/atomic_properties.hpp.

Namespace

morpho::atomic_props

Inherits from

Is part of the morpho/atomic_properties properties.

Arguments

Example 

morpho::atomic_props::atomic_properties<> const *
  hydrogen = morpho::atomic_props::atom<>::get_props( "H" );
std::cout << "Sanderson electronegativity 1 for the Hydrogen atom : ";
std::cout << hydrogen.sanderson1_electroneg << '\n';
