initializeCoordinates

public void initializeCoordinates(Box box)

Description copied from interface: Configuration

Defines the placement of the molecules. Atoms in all lists are considered for placement. Subclasses define the specific algorithm for placement, and for interpretation of the different lists. Some subclasses will simply place all atoms as if they are in a single list, while others will place atoms in different lists in different ways, for example to form a lattice appropriate to a compound (i.e., a solid-box mixture).
