Parameter Files

Types of Calculation (Prev)         Command Files (Next)

This manual section describes the format and contents of the parameter files used by all of the PSCF programs. The parameter files required by the three different PSCF programs exhibit a very similar structure and syntax, but differ in some details. The discussion given here focuses on general syntactical features that are common to all PSCF parameter files. For simplicity, however, the examples given in this chapter only contain elements required for SCFT calculations. More complete discussions of parameter files elements required to initialize either SCFT or PS-FTS calculations are given in the following two chapters.
