Excerpt: SPARTAN is a molecular modelling and computational chemistry application from Wavefunction, Inc. It contains code for molecular mechanics, semi-empirical methods, ab initio models, density functional theory methods, post-Hartree-Fock methods, and thermochemical recipes including T1. Molecular mechanics calculations and quantum chemical calculations play an ever-increasing role in modern chemistry. Primary functions are to supply information about structures, relative stabilities and other properties of isolated molecules. Because of their inherent simplicity, molecular mechanics calculations on complex molecules are widespread throughout the chemical community. Quantum chemical calculations, including Hartree-Fock molecular orbital calculations, b...
