An implementation of the Hartree-Fock method for atoms and molecules, based on McMurchie-Davidson scheme using Gaussian basis functions. The input basis files read by the code are in the Turbomole format. These files are taken from the website Basis Set Exchange
To compile the following libraries are needed:
- Armadillo
- Libconfig
- HDF5
- Boost
Editing of the code is best done using QtCreator.
Example of config file:
