Claims Summary
1. A method for modeling the three dimensional structure of a molecule by determining the lowest value of conformational potential energy of a molecule by using an algorithm to define the lowest value of the conformational potential energy as the best conformation representing the three dimensional structure of the molecule, said algorithm comprising the steps of:
a) representing the molecule in terms of coordinates defined by torsion angles of the atoms comprising the molecule;
