Applications Of Computer In Chemistry Are Now A Part Of Curriculum In B.Sc. And M.Sc. Classes Of Most Of The Universities. This Portion Has Been Introduced By U.G.C. In The Model Course Curriculum As Well. The Present Book Focuses On The Use Of This Electronic Machine In Dealing With The Problems Of Chemistry. Main Attention Has Been Focused On Development Of Programming Logic And Technique Particularly Dealing With The Problems Of Chemistry Which Should Be The Most Important Part Before Actually Writing Any Computer Program. Fundamentals Of Three Languages Viz. Basic, Fortran And C-Language, Have Been Included In This Book. Most Of The Programs In This Book Are Given In Basic Language As It Is Easy To Learn And Interactive Too. Ample Programs Are Also Given In Fortran And C-Language. It Is Has Been Tried To Include All The Programs In This Book With Their Outputs. Hope This Book Will Serve The Purpose And Will Prove To Be Useful For The Students Pursuing Studies In Chemistry At B.Sc. Or M.Sc. Level.ContentsIntroduction To Computers; Fundamental Concepts Of Programming; Ms-Dos And Its Use; Fundamentals Of Basic Programming; Fundamentals Of Fortran Programming; Fundamentals Of C-Language; Some Useful Programs In Chemistry; Etc.

Introduces the fundamentals of BASIC, FORTRAN and C++ language using the concepts of Chemistry. This book includes an account of various statements input/output, format, control (if - then - else, go to, do loops and more has been illustrated by various examples.

The gap between introductory level textbooks and highly specialized monographs is filled by this modern textbook. It provides in one comprehensive volume the in-depth theoretical background for molecular modeling and detailed descriptions of the applications in chemistry and related fields like drug design, molecular sciences, biomedical, polymer and materials engineering. Special chapters on basic mathematics and the use of respective software tools are included. Numerous numerical examples, exercises and explanatory illustrations as well as a web site with application tools (http://www.amrita.edu/cen/ccmm) support the students and lecturers.

The book first introduces the reader to the fundamentals of experimental design. Systems theory, response surface concepts, and basic statistics serve as a basis for the further development of matrix least squares and hypothesis testing. The effects of different experimental designs and different models on the variance-covariance matrix and on the analysis of variance (ANOVA) are extensively discussed. Applications and advanced topics (such as confidence bands, rotatability, and confounding) complete the text. Numerous worked examples are presented. The clear and practical approach adopted by the authors makes the book applicable to a wide audience. It will appeal particularly to those with a practical need (scientists, engineers, managers, research workers) who have completed their formal education but who still need to know efficient ways of carrying out experiments. It will also be an ideal text for advanced undergraduate and graduate students following courses in chemometrics, data acquisition and treatment, and design of experiments.
