Bonding through Code

This timely and unique publication is designed for graduates and researchers in physical inorganic chemistry covering bonding models and applications of symmetry concepts to chemical systems. The book discusses the quantum mechanical basis for molecular orbital concepts, the connections between molecular orbitals and localized views of bonding, group theory, and bonding models for a variety of compounds. Unlike other books, the concepts are made tangible to the readers by guiding them through the implementation in Matlab functions. No background in Matlab or computer programming is needed and the book will provide the necessary skills.
