Computer Software Applications in Chemistry

by Peter C. Jurs

This unique presentation of computer software applications in chemistry goes beyond hardware interfacing and computer lab use. The book is organized by topic: general aspects of computers, solution of equations by numerical means, abstract (nonnumerical) chemical-structure information handling and molecular mechanics, and graphical displays of data and molecular structures. Each topic is supplemented frequently by FORTRAN programs which illustrate the ways in which computer software is applicable to the chemical field.
