A series of computer programs has been written to prepare and display graphical models of molecules in three dimensions. A time-slicing computer is used to allow the operator to interact freely with the display through various options built into program DISPLAY. Two stereo views are drawn in separate colors on a color television monitor and viewed through filters for the three-dimensional effect. These techniques may prove useful both for information retrieval and for assistance with the crystallographic determination of molecular structures.
