Re: [AMBER] Coordinate arrays in sander

Hello,

>From my understanding of the code, sander uses a global array structure, in
which all (major?) arrays are simply sections of a much much larger array.
Thus, there is a real array, integer array, etc, and the positions will have
a chunk of the real array (as will, for instance, the velocities and forces,
etc.). (There are also hollerith arrays and I believe a couple others).

See the file $AMBERHOME/src/sander/locmem.f. The positions, it would
appear, occupy a section of the real array "x" beginning at position lcrd
("LCRD"). This variable is located in the common block, and is the variable
used, I believe, globally to reference the starting position of the
coordinate array (it may not necessarily be lcrd if lcrd is passed from one
subroutine/function to another where it is renamed). I also believe the
array is structured as (x1,y1,z1,x2,y2,z2,...), though someone may correct
me here.

Hope this helps,
Jason
