S3 generic to compute cell volume
calculate_cell_volume.Rd
The volume of a unit cell and a reciprocal unit cell can be calculated starting from specific objects, files, etc.
Value
V A real number. The volume (in \(angstroms^3\) or \(angstroms^{-3}\)) of the input unit cell or reciprocal unit cell.
Examples
# Calculate the volume of a unit cell
uc <- unit_cell(20)
V <- calculate_cell_volume(uc)
# Calculate the volume of the corresponding reciprocal cell
ruc <- create_rec_unit_cell(uc)
Vrec <- calculate_cell_volume(ruc)
V*Vrec # Should be 1!
