Hi all,
I have been trying to run HONDO/s calculations but the computer I am =
running it on crashes because of a gigantic .FT08 file. I tried to alter =
the command MBYTES and THIZE (in $INTGRL) or try a DIRECT=3D1 =
calculation (in $CNTRL), but I must not get this right because it does =
not change anything.
Anyone has any experience with this?
Thanks

Too true.

Sadly for our community, the textbook that I checked was an
advanced treatise on physical chemistry published in 2000, which
goes to show there is a lot of confusion about the terms
"isoelectronic", "isolobal", etc. (which is where the discussion started.)

Thanks to Guosheng Wu for pointing out that one of the roles of IUPAC
is to bring order out of confusion.

Dear CCLer's,

I have problems with optimization of indole ring by MOPAC/PM3 (and
similar MOPAC/MNDO)
The optimization does not preserve planarity of H bonded to N with the
indole ring?
Does anybody  have some experience with this problem

Thanks
Sanja

Hy everybody,
comments on scrambling QSAR data have been reported as follows

thanks,
Orazio 


Hy James
and thanks a lot for your help.
I have been reading your paper you referenced. 
Basically your results summarised in table 5 seems to confirm my 
initial feeling that r2 values are not relevant after scrambling data. 
And in fact your results (linear equation, but the same can be 
extended to the spline one) coming from G/PLS approach as on 
MFA as on Descriptor Data showed that the r2 values are still quite 
high (0.714 and 0.709 respectively) while r2(CV) values drop down 
(0.129 and 0.266 compared to 0.789 and 0.728 of the 
corresponding unscrambled data).
According to your results, I would say that scrambling is effective 
only to validate predictive QSAR power which means to look only 
at r2(CV) values before and after scrambling. Therefore r2, which 
accounts only for the model fitting is not worth to be investigated in 
scrambling.

If you agree this conclusion I will make a recap for any CCL users. 
Please let me know

Still thanks for your mail.
