Abstract
A conceptually and computationally simple method for the definition, display, quantification, and comparison of the shapes of three-dimensional mathematical molecular models is presented. Molecular or solvent-accessible volume and surface area can also be calculated. Algorithms, programming considerations, accuracy, and time and storage requirements are discussed. The method requires no extensive programming skills and could be implemented on a desk-top computer.
