Package Contents

ChemApp for Python is distributed in the form of a Python package, which you will receive as a .tar.gz file. The package contains the following modules:

  • core module

    The core module contains Python classes for entities like phases, phase constituents, thermochemical systems and calculation results. These classes can be used to create objects that make it easy and flexible to do computational thermochemistry work. We demonstrate this with examples.

  • basic module

    This module provides access to ChemApp through the original, very compact tq* application programmer’s interface (API).

  • friendly module

    This module allows you to work with ChemApp through a more verbose, and more friendly API that is easier to read and remember. This API is also more power, in that you can get more done with fewer lines of code.

  • User manual

    This manual is provided in .pdf format in the ChemApp for Python distribution package. It is also available as online ressource at <https://python.gtt-technologies.de/doc/chemapp/main.html>

  • Examples

    The distribution package contains a set of examples that demonstrate how to use the different parts of ChemApp for Python, step by step.
