Abstract

The program CNDO/INDO is a general-purpose combination of the CNDO/S, CNDO/2, INDO, and INDO/S programs. It performs RHF (open and closed shell) calculations, multi-reference CI, but not geometry optimizations. Transition metals are included

Credits

The program is based on QCPE 174, but it has completely rewritten, updated and imploved by Dr. Jeffrey R. Reimers at the School of Chemistry University of Sydney NSW 2006 Australia.

The graphical user interface was written by Dr. Baudilio Tejerina using Rappture toolkit at the Department of Chemistry, Northwestern University, Evanston, IL - USA
