Crate use_periodic_table 

use-periodic-table

Periodic-table lookup and conservative classification helpers.
Direct period, group, and broad family helpers backed by the `use-element` static element table.

use-periodic-table exposes full element iteration, period and group filtering, atomic-number metadata helpers, and a small set of conservative chemical family checks.

Surface

Item	Purpose
all_elements()	Full static element slice
period_elements()	Elements in a given period
group_elements()	Elements in a given group
period_for_atomic_number()	Period lookup from atomic number
group_for_atomic_number()	Group lookup from atomic number
is_valid_atomic_number()	Range check for 1 through 118
is_alkali_metal() and peers	Conservative broad-family helpers

Examples

use use_periodic_table::{group_elements, is_noble_gas, period_elements};

assert_eq!(period_elements(2).len(), 8);
assert_eq!(group_elements(18).len(), 7);
assert!(is_noble_gas(10));

Periodic-table lookup and conservative classification helpers.

Structs
