Trait BondsNumber 

Source 
pub trait BondsNumber {
    // Required method
    fn number_of_bonds(&self) -> (u8, u8);

    // Provided method
    fn is_noble_gas(&self) -> bool { ... }
}
Expand description

Minimum and maximum number of bonds an element can form.

Required Methods§

Source

fn number_of_bonds(&self) -> (u8, u8)

Returns (min_bonds, max_bonds) for the element.

§Examples
use elements_rs::{BondsNumber, Element};

let (min, max) = Element::H.number_of_bonds();
assert_eq!((min, max), (1, 1));

let (min, max) = Element::C.number_of_bonds();
assert_eq!((min, max), (4, 4));

Provided Methods§

Source

fn is_noble_gas(&self) -> bool

Returns true for noble gases (elements with zero bonds).

§Examples
use elements_rs::{BondsNumber, Element};

assert!(Element::He.is_noble_gas());
assert!(!Element::H.is_noble_gas());
