Added a new periodic module and tests. The new module contains an
Atom
class with attributes corresponding to properties in data from theelements_data.csv
anddata_info.csv
. This is done when the module is loaded. The docstring is also generated when the module is imported. This allows for adding new "kinds" of data in the future without needing to update the code.Notes:
@gabrielasd commented that this module is supposed to be used internally. Because of this and due to the diverse nature of the data (and its units) the module returns the values in its original units. The generated docstring and consequently
help(Atoms)
shows for each attribute the units along with the source, doi, etc.For multiplicities of charged species, the multiplicity of the isoelectronic element is used. This can lead to errors sometimes (see multiplicities problem)
