''' This module provides the periodic table as a data set. It exposes an attribute 'elements' which is a pandas dataframe with the following fields elements['atomic Number'] (units: g/cm^3) elements['symbol'] elements['name'] elements['atomic mass'] (units: amu) elements['CPK'] (convention for molecular modeling color) elements['electronic configuration'] elements['electronegativity'] (units: Pauling) elements['atomic radius'] (units: pm) elements['ionic radius'] (units: pm) elements['van der waals radius'] (units: pm) elements['ionization enerygy'] (units: kJ/mol) elements['electron affinity'] (units: kJ/mol) elements['phase'] (standard state: solid, liquid, gas) elements['bonding type'] elements['melting point'] (units: K) elements['boiling point'] (units: K) elements['density'] (units: g/cm^3) elements['type'] (see below) elements['year discovered'] elements['group'] elements['period'] element types: actinoid, alkali metal, alkaline earth metal, halogen, lanthanoid, metal, metalloid, noble gas, nonmetal, transition metalloid ''' from __future__ import absolute_import from bokeh.util.dependencies import import_required pd = import_required('pandas', 'periodic_table sample data requires Pandas (http://pandas.pydata.org) to be installed') from os.path import dirname, join elements = pd.read_csv(join(dirname(__file__), 'elements.csv'))
