USE
equal_group compares two groups element by element, returns True if both groups have exactly the same symmetry operators. This implies that the same group on two different settings returns False.
function call
r = equal_group(spg_1 : dict,spg_2 : dict)
| Variable | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| spg_1 | dict | Space group. It must be a dictionary of type spg_type or superspacegroup_type. It can be generated with the function set_spacegroup. |
| spg_2 | dict | Space group. It must be a dictionary of type spg_type or superspacegroup_type. It can be generated with the function set_spacegroup. |
| r | tuple | The tuple returned by the function. r[0] : int, error code. If non-zero, an error has occurred. r[1] : str, error message. r[2]: bool, True if both groups have exactly the same symmetry operators. |
examples
Example 1: Same group in two different settings.
Example 2: Same group from two different sets of generators.
