How To Install python36-periodictable on CentOS 7
Introduction
In this tutorial we learn how to install python36-periodictable on CentOS 7.
What is python36-periodictable
This package provides a periodic table of the elements with support for mass, density and xray/neutron scattering information. Masses, densities and natural abundances come from the NIST Physics Laboratory, but do not represent a critical evaluation by NIST scientists. Neutron scattering calculations use values collected by the Atomic Institute of the Austrian Universities. These values do corresponding to those from other packages, though there are some differences depending to the tables used. Bound coherent neutron scattering for gold in particular is significantly different from older value easured in 1974 compared to 7.90(7) as measured in 1990. X-ray scattering calculations use a combination of empirical and theoretical values from the LBL Center for X-ray Optics. These values differ from those given in other sources such as the International Tables for Crystallography, Volume C, and so may give different results from other packages..
We can use yum or dnf to install python36-periodictable on CentOS 7. In this tutorial we discuss both methods but you only need to choose one of method to install python36-periodictable.
Install python36-periodictable on CentOS 7 Using yum
Update yum database with yum using the following command.
sudo yum makecache
After updating yum database, We can install python36-periodictable using yum by running the following command:
sudo yum -y install python36-periodictable
Install python36-periodictable on CentOS 7 Using dnf
If you don’t have dnf installed you can install DNF on CentOS 7 first.
Update yum database with dnf using the following command.
sudo dnf makecache
After updating yum database, We can install python36-periodictable using dnf by running the following command:
sudo dnf -y install python36-periodictable
How To Uninstall python36-periodictable on CentOS 7
To uninstall only the python36-periodictable package we can use the following command:
sudo dnf remove python36-periodictable
