Ideas for chemistry computations?
« on: June 14, 2010, 10:15:48 AM »
Hello,

I want to write some programs that simulate chemistry interactions. Do you have any ideas what some ones to get started with?

thank you!

What you're asking is very vague. Try reading this first: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computational_chemistry

Probably a book on some programming language.

I assume you are looking for some formula that you can use as a basis of a program. Although this has been done - the ideal gas law formula with all its variations on which gas constant to use may be of interest.
