The crystallographers' friend
Crystallographic Laboratory, Cavendish Laboratory, Free School Lane, Cambridge, UK
The system of programs which is described has been developed in order to provide a "computing service within the computing service" on the Titan computer at Cambridge University. The arithmetic involved is for a particular department with special problems, but it is hoped that the discussion of the needs of such a system and the ideas developed for meeting these needs will be of general interest to other programmers with the task of writing a related set of standard programs.
