- Description
- The G16 (GRS16) file type is associated with Gaussian 16, a software application widely used for computational chemistry. This file format is specifically designed to store and manage input and output data related to molecular simulations and electronic structure calculations performed by the Gaussian 16 software. It contains detailed information on molecular structures, including atomic coordinates, as well as computational parameters and results such as energy levels, vibrational frequencies, and optimization data. The G16 format is essential for chemists and researchers engaged in molecular modeling, allowing for the detailed analysis and interpretation of chemical properties and reactions at the molecular level.
- A BMP file is an uncompressed raster image comprised of a rectangular grid of pixels. It contains a file header (bitmap identifier, file size, width, height, color options, and bitmap data starting point) and bitmap pixels, each with a different color.
