.SH "Detailed Description"
.PP 
The \fBCharacterTable\fP class provides a workable character table for all of the non-cubic point groups\&. 

While I have tried to match the ordering in Cotton's book, I don't guarantee that it is always followed\&. It shouldn't matter anyway\&. Also note that I don't lump symmetry operations of the same class together\&. For example, in C3v there are two distinct C3 rotations and 3 distinct reflections, each with a separate character\&. Thus symop has 6 elements rather than the 3 you'll find in most published character tables\&.

.PP
This is like the above, but it also takes a reference to a \fBSymmetryOperation\fP which is the frame of reference\&. All symmetry operations are transformed to this frame of reference\&.

.PP
Cn, Cnh, Sn, T, and Th point groups have complex representations\&. This function returns 1 if the point group has a complex representation, 0 otherwise\&.
