Abstract
A computer program for automatic point group determinations of given m olecules has been developed. The geometry of the molecule may be defin ed via absolute or internal (Z-matrix) coordinates. For correcting pur poses and for demonstrations, the three-dimensional shape of the molec ule may be displayed on screen in both outline and spacefill mode. Eve n the point groups of distorted molecules may be determined. The exten t of distortion is judged by an uncertainty parameter T. The software called SYMAPPS 1.0 runs under DOS on IBM PC or compatible systems.
