How To Install python3-denss on Kali Linux

In this tutorial we learn how to install python3-denss on Kali Linux. python3-denss is calculate electron density from a solution scattering profile

Introduction

In this tutorial we learn how to install python3-denss on Kali Linux.

What is python3-denss

python3-denss is:

DENSS is an algorithm used for calculating ab initio electron density maps directly from solution scattering data. DENSS implements a novel iterative structure factor retrieval algorithm to cycle between real space density and reciprocal space structure factors, applying appropriate restraints in each domain to obtain a set of structure factors whose intensities are consistent with experimental data and whose electron density is consistent with expected real space properties of particles.

DENSS utilizes the NumPy Fast Fourier Transform for moving between real and reciprocal space domains. Each domain is represented by a grid of points (Cartesian), N x N x N. N is determined by the size of the system and the desired resolution. The real space size of the box is determined by the maximum dimension of the particle, D, and the desired sampling ratio. Larger sampling ratio results in a larger real space box and therefore a higher sampling in reciprocal space (i.e. distance between data points in q). Smaller voxel size in real space corresponds to higher spatial resolution and therefore to larger q values in reciprocal space.

There are three methods to install python3-denss on Kali Linux. We can use apt-get, apt and aptitude. In the following sections we will describe each method. You can choose one of them.

Install python3-denss Using apt-get

Update apt database with apt-get using the following command.

sudo apt-get update

After updating apt database, We can install python3-denss using apt-get by running the following command:

sudo apt-get -y install python3-denss

Install python3-denss Using apt

Update apt database with apt using the following command.

sudo apt update

After updating apt database, We can install python3-denss using apt by running the following command:

sudo apt -y install python3-denss

Install python3-denss Using aptitude

If you want to follow this method, you might need to install aptitude on Kali Linux first since aptitude is usually not installed by default on Kali Linux. Update apt database with aptitude using the following command.

sudo aptitude update

After updating apt database, We can install python3-denss using aptitude by running the following command:

sudo aptitude -y install python3-denss

How To Uninstall python3-denss on Kali Linux

To uninstall only the python3-denss package we can use the following command:

sudo apt-get remove python3-denss

Uninstall python3-denss And Its Dependencies
