  • Abstract
    Three commonly used types of three-dimensional molecular models are reviewed together with their suitability for two-dimensional computer representation. A new algorithm is described which allows perspective, hidden-line drawings to be made of space-filling models, and which takes advantage of the spherical symmetries of these models.
