Typedef Documentation

typedef sphere<short,byte> sphere_s

A sphere with short int coordinates. This type is an 8 byte sphere. It is well-suited for simulations performed on discrete lattices. Typically the lattice size is limited to a few hundreds in x, y and z which results in millions of grid cells. Memory limits and time constraints will result in this type being useful for years.

typedef sphere<float,float> sphere_f

A sphere with float coordinates. This type is a 20 byte sphere. It was introduced to allow more accurate display of molecules. Atomic coordinates are retrieved from PDB files which allow up to 7 digits.

typedef gl_sphere<short,byte> gl_sphere_s

A sphere with short int coordinates and a distance value.

typedef gl_sphere<float,float> gl_sphere_f

A sphere with float coordinates and a distance value.
