 # SimpleMD
 
-A molecular dynamics code for a Lennard-Jones system. 
+A molecular dynamics code for a Lennard-Jones system.
 
-The purpose here is to provide a basic molecular dynamics code base (`CHEG231MD.py`) written in fairly plain Python and standard libraries. The code is used as part of a module on molecular thermodyanmics in the University of Delaware Chemical Engineering Thermodynamics I course honors section. Students use it explore the basic concepts of molecular simulations and molecular processes in thermodynamics.

 It is not a high performance simulation. Those seeking modern simulation tools should use LAMMPS or other powerful packages.
