Struct Isotope 

pub struct Isotope { /* private fields */ }

Small validated isotope identity.

Implementations

impl Isotope

pub const fn new(atomic_number: u8, mass_number: u16) -> Option<Self>

Creates an isotope identity from an atomic number and mass number.

Validation is structural: the atomic number must be in the element range, and the mass number must be at least the atomic number. This does not imply that the isotope is naturally occurring, stable, or experimentally known.

Examples

use use_isotope::Isotope;

let carbon_12 = Isotope::new(6, 12).unwrap();

assert_eq!(carbon_12.atomic_number(), 6);
assert_eq!(carbon_12.mass_number(), 12);

pub fn from_symbol(symbol: &str, mass_number: u16) -> Option<Self>

Creates an isotope identity from an element symbol and mass number.

pub const fn atomic_number(&self) -> u8

Returns the isotope atomic number.

pub const fn mass_number(&self) -> u16

Returns the isotope mass number.

pub const fn proton_count(&self) -> u8

Returns the proton count.

pub const fn neutron_count(&self) -> u16

Returns the neutron count.

pub const fn nucleon_count(&self) -> u16

Returns the nucleon count.

pub fn element(&self) -> Option<Element>

Looks up the isotope element metadata.

pub fn element_symbol(&self) -> Option<&'static str>

Looks up the isotope element symbol.

pub fn element_name(&self) -> Option<&'static str>

Looks up the isotope element name.

pub fn hyphen_notation(&self) -> Option<String>

Formats the isotope with ASCII hyphen notation, such as C-12.

Trait Implementations

impl Clone for Isotope

fn clone(&self) -> Isotope

Returns a duplicate of the value.

fn clone_from(&mut self, source: &Self)

Performs copy-assignment from source.

impl Debug for Isotope

fn fmt(&self, f: &mut Formatter<'_>) -> Result

Formats the value using the given formatter.

impl Hash for Isotope

fn hash<__H: Hasher>(&self, state: &mut __H)

Feeds this value into the given Hasher.

fn hash_slice<H>(data: &[Self], state: &mut H)

where H: Hasher, Self: Sized,

Feeds a slice of this type into the given Hasher.

impl PartialEq for Isotope

fn eq(&self, other: &Isotope) -> bool

Tests for self and other values to be equal, and is used by ==.

fn ne(&self, other: &Rhs) -> bool

Tests for !=. The default implementation is almost always sufficient, and should not be overridden without very good reason.
